What people think polyglots do: have lively conversations in several languages.
What actually happens: 'Einmal single espresso, s'il-vous plaît!'

I don't think they can put this many people in prison
Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.

However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I miss the quaint times of 2017 when Simicska still had to get up at 5AM to paint signs on his own advertising space, because the 'Orban is a gangster' billboards just didn't cut it anymore, but the police politely asked him to stop after the 5th sign.

Does anyone have a good security analysis of Apple accessibility features? Are there for example security mechanisms which ensure that speech transcribed for accessibility reasons is instantly deleted or processed via a Secure Enclave?

I feel for all the cybersecurity folks like @lukasz.bsky.social these days. They prepare for everything, and then have to watch people add journalists to groupchats and leave passwords as 1234 www.theregister.com/2025/04/19/u...

I wanted to avoid buying new plants for the balcony, but then the magnetic pull of the garden center got me. Good luck to me and the baby tomatoes

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.

She said “your head will spin with all the wild stuff they try to pull, new things every day, but don’t take your eyes off the money. It’s all about the money, and what they’re stealing, and for whom.”

I just noticed my undergrad uni is 'getting restructured.' A uni teaching visual communication, and professional print production.

So there's a sticker war in the bathrooms, as they have cameras everywhere else. (Why do they have cameras?)
