Cyberpunk is here.
High tech, low life.

I don't write often, I am not looking for gotchas, and don't need another one liners platform.

Hoping this one won't get inundated by bots and bad actors.
Italy is not gonna host the #MAGA convention and offer #Trump leverage against EU.

Official reason: "Too many nutjobs on stage."

Old tablet died.

Wanting to give iPads a chance as new family shared device.

Found out iOS does not allow to have multiple user profiles!

A basic feature we've had for ages on Android phones and tables, or on computers, is completely missing. In 2025.

How many other basic things are missing?

Almost all new PCs are sold with Windows preinstalled.
Italy's courts stated that consumers are entitled to a refund (around 50€) if they don't want to pay for the MS OEM license.

Manufacturers should have this as a standard everywhere.

"Unions say Italy “is not the Wild West like the U.S.”"

Knowing the people in that region, I am feally surprised they didn't respond to #Musk 's "name 5 things you did Last week" request with "YOUR MOM" x 5.🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹

Non sono cazzi tuoi, #Elon.
#Unions, capìsc? 🤌
Musk Email Reaches Italian Workers. It Did Not Go Well.
Employees at the Aviano Air Base who serve American forces got a familiar demand to list their achievements. Unions say Italy “is not the Wild West like the U.S.”

While Donald is kissing Putin's ring and echoing his propaganda on Ukraine as the good Russian asset he is, on Russian national TV they explain how they would nuke the U.S.

One of the good ones.

Ardent #MAGA / #Trump Cuban activist reportedly taken by #ICE and in line for #deportation.
If Cuba refuses to get him, the following step might be Guantanamo.

It is being reported by multiple sources, yet it is hard to believe it is true.

Loved watching "Nata per Te", the first case in Italy of a single succeeding in adopting a child.

Alba is a girl born with the down syndrome rejected by her parents, Luca is a gay single who wants a family.

For weeks in the top10 Netflix movies in Italy.

Nata Per Te
This is the true story of Luca, a single Catholic man who in 2017 adopted Alba, a Down's syndrome child left in hospital shortly after being born.

Italian far right PM Giorgia Meloni wants a deal to handover Italian military comms to Starlink.

Her in 2020: "Delivering once again a strategic infrastructure to foreign speculation is a real act of betrayal"

Now she is upset one of her predecessors said she is obedient to Musk and Trump.

An interesting public foundation to have a social network built on Bluesky's open sourced protocol, for a better healthier place, and to liberate social media from billionaire control.

It will take years, and a lot of investments and dedication but it will be interesting to see.

Last night in Italy the Robin Hood group enacted another sabotage wave against AirBnb smart lockers across many Italian cities.

The act is a form of #protest against rising housing costs caused by the proliferation of short rentals.

New bill: two years prison for peaceful protesting if blocking a road, and they can turn into fifteen years if resisting to public officers.

They call it "security".

Then I have to hear people telling me that the Italian government isn't taking a fascist turn.

A Russian FSB officer, codenamed “Erudite,” has been orchestrating pro-Russian propaganda in Italy via cultural organisations and media outlets. https://buff.ly/4g8TFwD
The Kremlin’s fingerprints are all over European discourse, but the real scandal is: how has such meddling been allowed to thrive?
