Wow, now you'll be able to bribe #Ryanair staff for a bigger bag?! I wonder what the market price will be - 5€? 10€?
Gate staff can earn €2.50 for every non-compliant bag they catch as Ryanair enforces its limits.
Oversized cabin bags? Ryanair staff now earn more to catch offenders

As someone who has stopped using Twitter ~3 years ago, after having been on it daily for the prior 16 years, it is *so* clear how much the current hateful and extreme state of the platform warps the views of its users, and NOBODY TALKS ABOUT IT. I see the effect so much working in tech.
These people are so unaware of being personally influenced by constantly immersing themselves in a firehose blast of Nazi propaganda that she doesn't even list that as one of the considerations www.theargumentmag.com/p/we-have-to...

The reason Elon made Grok in the first place was because he assumed OpenAI was turning the secret “woke” dial up too high and small parameter tweaks could make it right-wing. Now he has realized the only way to get the AI to agree with him is to lobotomize it by rewriting the entire training set.

Just a reminder: #Iran did have a deal with the US and EU regulating non-proliferation, the deal worked, Iran was compliant with all the inspections. Then the US under Trump's 1st term broke it and started punishing the EU when we tried to salvage it.

#Jubilee 's #Surrounded is literally a perpetual conflict machine. It festers on conflict to create more conflict and advance conflict into a new spaces.

#PiS is winning not because of programme or bribing people with social. It wins by ruthlessly attacking the elites - it made the Polish boor feel proud of his boorishness, the ignorant proud of his ignorance, and those that failed feel like successful are to blame for the failures.

Transatlantic cooperation has collapsed, G7 momentum is gone, and 80% of circumvention cases are linked to China and Hong Kong.
