Smart TV tip: Don't use a cheap USB stick as external Android storage.

My TV had all kinds of problems, 1st with the Paramount+ app, then TV app and finally HDMI inputs.
Moved that app to internal storage, removed stick, rebooted - problems gone!

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone.

If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

Our planet is so troubled by global warming and climate change it rang an alarm in September 2023 - for 9 days.

Collaborating scientists across world found out how.

„Beginnender Staatsterror“, „Polizeistaat“, „Führerprinzip“ - eine sehr laute Warnung von US-Historiker Timothy Snyder:
"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps.
This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped"

EU: "The transatlantic alliance is over", therefore EU gives staff 'burner phones, laptops' for US visits ...

Report: EC issues burner phones for visits to US
: That would put America on the same level as China for espionage

The Blue Sky is an "American" company. Should we really keep using it?

British problems? No, British solutions! Not in Britain!

In a sense this phone box is bigger on the inside too ;-)

With all those DEI (decent, ethic, intelligent) programs dropped even by f*ing global companies, any organisation that wants to regain even a tad of respect should stop hiring "local" white men unless they're qualifed 100% better and work 50% cheaper.

This year 14 Dutch cities have introduced Zero Emission zones. The aim of the policy is to clean up the urban freight distribution sector. To help achieve this transition, the cargo bike is increasingly being recognised as a solution

Over the last decades, the Dutch Government has spent around €500 million on cycling infrastructure.

Although that may seem like a lot, the annual health relates benefits are estimated to be €19 billion. That is 2% of the Dutch GDP.

There's a saying for lazy couch potatoes, "Sport is Mord", translating to "sport is murder".

My clumsyness tends to support this: Yesterday night I sprained both joints of my right thumb while on the stationary cardio bike, by hitting the handlebar changing my seating position too fast.

Will YouTube ever understand the concept of people that understand more than 1 language?

Auto-translated titles were bad enough. Then I started to get subtitles in "exotic" languages, in English videos by a German scientiest.

Now I sometimes get an AI-dubbing in German, unasked.

Happy Birthday #DoctorTrek @larrynemecek.bsky.social!

This time German pop culture provides a fitting party song by the late Austrian singer Udo Jürgens.

Fortunately Chris de Burgh made an English version, and performed it at a TV show for Udo's 80th brithday ...
