That is dedication, but I can see why you put in the effort. I've had one or two hotels with decent coffee, but most are similarly bad.

Macro photo of a brown stink bug in face view on a leaf, guarding a tightly-clustered bunch of eggs that are shaped and colored exactly like a full tray of dark beer with foam on top.

Finally, the bug is back with a round of the Guinness.

My French pronunciation generally isn't too bad, but I really can't roll my Rs either. I think I'll need to learn though πŸ˜…

Europe wants to end its dangerous reliance on US internet technology As the US increases political pressure on Europe, it’s possible to imagine the continent losing access to key computing services.

β€œNo country, let alone continent, will ever be completely digitally independent, and nor should they be. But by pulling together, Europe can ensure its digital systems remain accessible even in a crisis – just as is expected from its physical infrastructure.”

i really do not think it is possible to overstate the irreversible damage that generative AI is doing to systems designed to support, educate, and help humans right now.

What is so striking about tech billionaires like Musk and Bezos is that there is nothing there, no class, no grace, no humour, no empathy, no style, no wit, no depth, no charm. Empty avatars of materialist greed and techno-capitalist authoritarianism devoid of all meaning.

The political rant at the end of this video is something else. Unexpected, strong, and very well stated. I liked @techconnectify.bsky.social before, but even more so after this. I hope people listen.

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.
