@microsoft.com stop this, just stop…

Tech Billionaire Marc Andreessen Bet Big on Trump. It’s Paying Off for Silicon Valley. The Trump administration’s gutting of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has been good for venture capitalists like Andreessen, who previously accused the agency of “terrorizing” fintech startup...

How to fight censorship, one Disney+ cancellation at a time Thuggish government behavior is not stopped by capitulation.

I will renew my Disney+ subscription when Kimmel is back on air, AND after I get a refund on the autobiography of Iger. After inspection it appears not to have the adverted spine.

Van alle mogelijke invalshoeken kiest @demorgen.be die van victim blaming 😳 @barteeckhout.bsky.social

Ik kan toch niet de enige zijn die de dure horloge niet het meest schokkende aan deze foto en aan dat bezoek vindt? @demorgen.be

Let me guess… Maybe because it is massive and headed towards Earth 🤔🤷🏻

This is the second time you ruine the one job to be done @klarna. The loyalty cards wallet has become unusable since you took over. Hire some humans.

‘Eén patroon valt op: het gebruik van Palestijnen als menselijke schilden.

Buy audiobooks & support local bookstores Libro.fm makes it possible for you to buy audiobooks directly through local bookstores.

Just discovered libro.fm
An audible-like subscription experience for audiobooks, but DRM-free and supporting the local bookstore rather than the guy with the rockets-hobby. I switched! libro.fm/story @libro.fm

“We’re doing the right thing”: check your WIP before cheering. You might be doing too many things to accommodate too many stakeholders.

Hey @demorgen.be , heel fijn dat jullie van X weg zijn, maar ik kan bepaalde artikels niet lezen zonder data te moeten delen met Musk en Zuck… Anderen lossen dat op door een post na te bouwen, zonder verbinding met de bron.

Call it a tribute to the efficiency of solar panels - there is a positive business case despite the low amount of sunshine.

If what companies do with personal data is so good for consumers, why do they fear having to ask for consent?

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Breaking: suppliers struggle to source sufficient champagne for the kremlin.

Heldere analyse. Benieuwd naar de reactie van de minister. @demorgen.be

Establishing the President's Make America Healthy Again Commission By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.

Giving infectious disease research a break, as promised by the MAHA agenda.

Let's break down what exactly this Executive Order is *really* saying.

Fortunately, I speak fluent anti-vax grifterese & can translate.

A screenshot from Belgian newspaper De Morgen with a teaser for an interview of a tech personality who calls Musk moves with DOGE 'smart' next to a teaser for an article describing how hundreds of crucial nuclear safety staff were fired by accident.

Just leaving this here...

… terminology are rarely worth the effort.
In fact, “UL” might be another example of a term that was meant to mean something in one context (my point 1) being interpreted (because ‘ubiquitous’) in another way (my point 3).

How the concept of UL resonated with me is 1/ there should be no difference between the terms used in the code v the stories v reality v any model and 2/ be aware of the fact that a word in one context can mean something different in another context and 3/ efforts to create company-wide unique …

Are you affected by the Trump administration’s pause on health communications, science meetings, and reviews? Have you been affected by the Trump administration’s pause on communications, science meetings, and reviews? @statnews would like to hear from you.

Is the communications pause that's been imposed on the US government's health agencies affecting you? @statnews.com would love to hear about it. Please let us know. www.statnews.com/2025/01/25/t...

Le compte-rendu donne envie de voir la présentation ! Y a-t-il un enregistrement ?

Rare find: Musk mentioning reliabilty of sources…

Take care!

Hey @demorgen.be, kunnen jullie ervoor zorgen dat ik mijn gegevens niet aan Musk moet geven om journalistiek relevante content van zijn platform te zien? Zie bij DS hoe zij het doen. Maar super dat jullie naar hier zijn verhuisd!

In other words donate to Wikipedia.

Streisand-effect it! Please share.

IF YOU BELIEVE THE MANY SHOULD HAVE CONTROL OVER THE FEW, this is your time.
As a decentralized platform, @bsky.app is probably the last, best chance for this to happen

This has nothing to do with me. I'm just stating the obvious.

It has everything to do with what the 1.2m @bsky.app users do.

Stoppen met X te legitimeren door er een officieel account op te houden?
