I have tried the competition of X for some weeks now and I am positively surprised by the higher quality of the posts over there. More academic, more quality, less crappy memes. The algorithm seems better at recommending posts to me too. I will be using both systems in parallel.

@ksundstrom BlueSky? Du är visst redan där sedan en tid tillbaka.

@MartinPaasi @JDVance The Trump-Vance administration has spent the last weeks dismantling the US government and institutions. You'll need to double check everything he claims. You need to understand that the words he uses, like "free speech" and "democracy", does not mean what you think they mean.

Tuo #USA:n varapresidentti @JDVance :n #München puhe👇👇👇 oli kyllä täyttä asiaa. Se oli puhe #demokratia:n puolesta. Että vain antamalla kaikkien äänten kuulua, demokraattisesti valitut päättäjät voivat tietää, että heillä on kansan tuki. Että #sananvapaus on demokratian kulmakivi. Toki puhe tarjottiin amerikkalaisittain. Toki siinä oli pehmeyttä Venäjään päin. Toki siinä nostettiin esimerkkejä Eurooppalaisista järjettömyyksistä (miksei nostettaisi?). Mutta puheena se käsitteli sananvapautta demokratian kulmakivenä. Ja sitä, että USA:lle on tärkeää, että sananvapaus ja demokratia säilyy Euroopassa. Ja, että kunhan näin käy USA:lta löytyy kyllä tukea… vaikka olisimme eri mieltä asioista. Kuuntele vaikka itse: youtube.com/watch?v=pCOsgf…

Euroalueen inflaatiossa ei mitään mullistavaa joulukuussa. Energian pohjavaikutus nosti kokonaisinflaation 2,4 prosenttiin. Maittaiset erot ovat yhä suuria. Italiassa inflaatio 1,4%, Hollannissa 3,9%. Eiköhän EKP näillä luvuilla jatka koronlaskuja kuun lopussa.

Intensive fighting ongoing. 22k casualties looks like a record.

Why the crypto industry backed Trump: because the crypto oligarchs want billions of dollars from the US government. @chrislhayes has the best explanation of this story I have seen youtu.be/qWANiC28M8o?fe…

My life has peaked. Nothing is ever topping this. Volcano erupted last night in Iceland 🇮🇸

Matt Gaetz withdraws as Trump's nominee for attorney general bbc.in/3Z04wSD

BREAKING: The entire parking lot of the Blue Lagoon in Iceland is now under lava. Except for a few light poles at the end of what used to be a parking lot, the lava appears to have spread slightly. It is impossible to tell the harm at this time.

I samband med #FysKemDagarna ordnade FSF även en exkursion till Novatron Fusion i Stockholm för att bekanta oss med utvecklingen av deras fusionsreaktor (fick ej fotograferas).

Wow! What on earth happened here? (I don't mean "why did so many people move to a different social network," but "why did they all go to 🦋")

Economists warn Trump’s policies will trigger inflation on.ft.com/40O0RtF

Trump appears set to repeat Biden's mistake, causing a big inflationary spike early on. 1. Increased tariffs, especially on Chinese consumer goods, will cause inflation. 2. Reduced farm labor force will boost food prices. 3. Tax cuts increase the budget deficit.

@teroterotero I have always found it ironic that the most silent people on Earth are the leading experts on ice breaking technologies.

Focusing on ice breakers may be for the best
