rewatching NETWORK for a project 👀 and it is absolutely shocking how prescient this film is. it’s like paddy chayefsky was granted a vision of america in 2025 and he furiously tried to turn what he saw into something intelligible to viewers in the 1970s

This is very true, and I’m immensely peeved at all the small men who’ve forced me too to spend so much of my time learning about war, rather than working on environmental issues or something other constructive pursuits.

The opportunity costs of collapsing

Jag hoppas alla förstår att det i den pågående samtiden inte finns någon position att inta som innebär att vara neutral, eller att passivitet och tystlåtenhet skulle vara mer neutralt än att höja sin röst. Ingen är neutral, men alla bär ansvar för sin omvärld.

I think it would eventually be a good thing if such systems were cut off from anywhere outside the U.S.

It's not like building infrastructure locally would be a vast R&D effort, all the tech exists, and is easy to spin up.

The security gain from not being poisoned by American insanity? Priceless.
The mere suggestion that the United States could order its cloud firms to shut off foreign clients the Trump administration is feuding with is yet another reason to accelerate the creation of sovereign public cloud facilities.

Governments can’t give more contracts to Amazon, Microsoft, or Google.
Microsoft would push back against Trump order to suspend European cloud operations
Company to change contracts amid concerns that services will get tangled in US-EU fight.

TRÅD - Räddandet av danska judar till Sverige är nog den största "lyckligt slut"-storyn från hela andra världskriget (i alla fall från Norden), men kanske är anledningen till att bara kassa filmer gjorts om det att militär inte spelade någon som helst roll. Tänker på vad det säger om krig.

He & his team totally blew the chance to finish this on their watch. And left us with the mess that could be exploited in the way that it is by the Trump team.

Total strategic fail & absolutely nothing to teach anyone about statecraft - weakened the US & the democratic world & betrayed Ukraine.

Western leaders wanted to be cautious to avoid nuclear risks. They are still extremely jumpy about WW3. Now instead they have initiated nuclear proliferation thus making the use of nuclear weapons far more likely in long run. Cowardice is a very bad risk management principle.

Skäms regeringen, hur kan ni acceptera att SD får igenom sån här fullständigt idiotisk politik?

Let me put it this way: I have always been highly skeptical about the idea of Germany or the EU needing their own nuclear weapons.

But without the U.S., I do not believe that the nuclear deterrents of France and the UK are sufficient to guarantee Europe’s security.

Watching powerless from Europe how democracy is crumbling in the US, reminds me of those movies where someone is mind-controlled by an alien or ghost. I want to yell: "America, we know you are still in there. If you can hear us, you must fight. YOU CAN DO IT. FIGHT THIS!"
