Glaube das könnte unterhaltsam werden.

Bin kein Experte, ich vermute das ganze hat auch was mit dem Atomschirm zu tun den Frankreich aufbauen will.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

1/ Here's what I can share:

He was also a member of the supervisory board of Russian oil company Lukoil from 2019 until 4 March 2022.

Vorteil: EU-Produziert, nicht mal der Akku kommt aus China. Komfort ist Ok.
Nachteil: Stellantis hat nicht den allerbesten Ruf was Qualität angeht. Wir haben den elektrischen Jeep Avenger (auf der gleichen Plattform). Sind grundsätzlich zufrieden damit aber es gibt immer wieder kleine Problemchen.

Reminds me of bsky.app/profile/echa...

Trump Went to War With Iran Because Jared Kushner Is a Fool Donald Trump’s top two negotiators have no clue what they’re doing.

Laurel and Hardy start a war.

In the meantime Putin sends targeting information to Iran so they can kill American soldiers. Trump was asked about it by a reporter. His answer „I don’t know about it but they are not doing well“

One thing’s for sure: China takes notes on every single bullet the USA fires. In one or two years when they go for Taiwan, Epic Fury will become Epic Sorry.

Premium: The Hater's Guide to Oracle You can’t avoid Oracle. No, really, you can’t. Oracle is everywhere. It sells ERP software – enterprise resource planning, which is a rat king of different services for giant companies for financial ...

Premium Post: This is the Hater's Guide To Oracle: an evil company that profits off of strongarming its customers to boost its declining revenues. It needs $150bn more to complete its data centers, and if OpenAI can't pay its bills, Oracle runs out of money.

www.wheresyoured.at/haters-guide...

As it stands, Oracle is a company in decline that has attached itself to a low-to-negative margin business with extensive, debt-ridden setup costs, with a primary customer that required over $140 billion in funding just to stop itself falling over and dying by the end of 2026. Oracle continually misses analyst estimates, swindles customers into expensive contracts and then sues them to bleed them for more money, has employees that tell me that life there is utterly miserable, and is inarguably an enterprise in sharp decline, one accelerated by the desperate, egoistical predilections of Larry Ellison, a guy who allegedly stepped down a decade ago but fully intends to drive the entire company off a cliff. If allowed to, Oracle will be swallowed whole by its debt, and won’t have much of a business to fall back upon. In writing this piece, I have tried to look for something resembling an Oracle fan — somebody that appreciates the software or will defend it on any level. All I can find are the most wretched AI boosters, desperate to kiss up to anybody who will incinerate billions of dollars to build data centers. Perhaps I’m trashed off hopium, but I see no scenario that ends with anything other than the near-destruction of Oracle, and even if a government bailout exists, it will take decades — if it’s even possible — to recover from what I believe will be an historic destruction of shareholder capital, all borne of the hubris of one of the most nakedly anti-consumer companies in the history of capitalism.

I hate Oracle. I’ve spent hours and hours reading about Oracle, learning all about Oracle, thinking about Oracle, philosophizing about Oracle, and never before have I witnessed a company that’s so thoroughly debased its products, customers and shareholders. This company has taken the piss for decades, and I think it’s finally its time for a reckoning. Could Larry Ellison be rendered penniless? Doubtful. But the outcome of decades of fucking over customers and terrible financial decisions may finally tear down his rotten legacy.

I’ve tried to be charitable in this piece. I’ve tried to look for cause for optimism for Oracle. All I found was a company in decline after decades of profiting off of stagnant products and contempt for its customers. It's a horror show.

We need your drone interceptors for our war, but we won’t thank you and our propaganda will claim that we made them.

Reminder: When Putin speaks, he will often quote statistics. Media will then pick up those statements & publish them, and then people will take that as fact.

Just because Putin said a number, doesn’t mean it’s true.

(People notice this problem with Trump, but still seem to fall for it with Putin)

Trump’s flip-flop on emergency oil reserves has its merits U.S. President Donald Trump's signature budget bill slashed funding for refilling U.S. emergency oil reserves, violating his previous vow to fill them "right to the top". This about-face raises the qu...

"[…] the so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" that Trump signed into law on July 4 [2025] reduced planned spending on SPR repurchases to $171 million between 2025 and 2029, from $1.3 billion in an earlier iteration, opens new tab of the bill, with another $218 million earmarked for maintenance."

Block-Entlassungen: Mitarbeiter kritisieren Jack Dorseys KI-Strategie Nachdem Jack Dorsey die Belegschaft von Block fast halbiert hat, widersprechen Angestellte der Darstellung, KI-Tools könnten sie ersetzen.

"Ein Mitarbeiter bezeichnete die Argumentation als "CEO-Bullshit". Intern herrsche "Survival-Modus", da verbliebene Teams nun die Arbeitslast der entlassenen Kollegen tragen müssten, ohne dass die KI-Tools die versprochene Entlastung brächten."

War heute eine super erhellende Diskussion mit tollen Expert:innen. Gratulation!

Meanwhile…

Trump seems to think that everything’s going well in Iran.

⚡️ The Slovak government’s decision to end emergency power supplies to Ukraine will hurt Slovakia, says the MFA.

I would add that my favorite part of this sage to date is that Trump allowed Noem to be absolutely skewered by Congress again knowing full well he was going to fire her. He could have saved her the indignity but couldn't care less.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

⚡ Zelenskyy: Ukraine is open to sharing expertise in repelling Iranian drone attacks.

US taxpayers will now have to pay $700 million a month in interest for every month Trump refuses to refund tariffs under the Supreme Court ruling. So much winning.
