„Noch am Morgen ihrer Amtseinführung stehen einige Minister:innen im Lobbyregister. Wem hat die Regierungsmannschaft von Friedrich Merz bislang gedient – und welche Interessenkonflikte ergeben sich daraus?“

„Die neue Wirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche? Noch am Morgen ihrer Amtsübernahme ist sie als Interessenvertreterin eines Energiekonzerns registriert (der Eintrag wird zur Mittagszeit entfernt). Digitalminister Karsten Wildberger? Steht ebenfalls noch im Lobbyregister – als Top-Manager eines Elektronikriesen und Vizepräsident eines Lobbyverbandes. Nahtloser kann der Übergang vom Lobbyjob in ein Ministeramt nicht sein.“


Soms moest hoop bij 'Tegenlicht' uit de tenen komen, maar als kenmerk van optimisme was en bleef het morele plicht. Blaffen moet, al is het tegen de maan. Wat dat betreft is de laatste aflevering exemplarisch. groene.nl/artikel/blaffen-moet…

If the German railway could offer such a wagon between Paris, Berlin and Warsaw, european diplomacy would be far more luxurious, ecologic and popular.



5 Stunden Gartenarbeit , tja allein dauert es eben alles doppelt so lang 🫩.
Bis auf die Sonnenblumen ( die müssen noch einen Platz im Garten finden ) habe ich alles erledigt .
Jetzt hoffe ich das das Bittersalz den Tujas neue Lebenskraft einhaucht 🙏 .
Aber ich lieb meinen Garten , auch wenn es immer einiges an Arbeit bedeutet 🫩

Today's random #Discogs choice The Mission and Tower Of Strength 12" 1988. For Chris.
On what would've been my best buddy's 57th birthday, I gave one of his favourite tracks a spin.

I love this #choon I listened to the album recently. It's still as good as I remember when I was a wee teenager.

@Anomnomnomaly I'm not the biggest fan of The Mish. But, as you say #choon It's always been a firm favourite since the 80s.

You're still missing the point, so I'm not gonna argue anymore since it seems like a waste of time. I don't even disagree with what you said, but its basically you just arguing past the point I'm making.

You're still missing the point,


Neg, your point was clear. You are arguing that the West lacks any meaningful power to intervene, because of the perceived lack of action on Israel.

Despite that not being the case at all.

I'm not gonna argue anymore since it seems like a waste of time.


Agreed. Have a good day.

The image shows a close-up of a person's hands performing a task. The left hand is holding a black hot glue gun with an orange trigger, positioned to apply glue. The right hand is holding a small, metallic object, possibly a clip or a tool, with a white substance, likely glue, being applied to it. The background is a light wooden surface, providing a neutral backdrop for the activity. The focus is on the hands and the objects, with no other elements visible in the image.

Question!

Is there something like #BlueSCSI but for #fibrechannel emulation?

I wonder if the whole "industry" side of publishing is one of those enduring but still temporary patterns. Something that feels like the only system when you're stuck inside it, but isn't the only way. A little like hearing the "get back to the workplace!" whiners who overlook the long, long history of cottage industries because it suits them to do so. All the rhetoric might be on the side of Big Whatever, but that doesn't make it the whole truth.

Trad pub as we know it is has only been around since about 1900-ish. Hard to put an exact date on because it's been a slow evolution.

I call it "covert racism"

Like covert NPD. It's subtle and most people won't recognize it, even the victims. It's also very institutional and widespread. And enforced subtly and sometimes brutally. Some people have power at the core of their personality. And it's horrific.
