OTD in 1938 the Austrian Anschluss. A dictator sent his army over the border & later had illegal referendum with rigged result that violated numerous treaties. The West expressed only “concern” which turned out not to be enough to prevent war….
Imagine that happening today.
Ich hab auch das Gefühl dass etwas in Bewegung kommen könnte. We'll see.
Mein Punkt ist dass Trump alles mögliche versprechen kann und wenn er dann umdisponiert ist alles egal. Es gelten komplett andere Maßstäbe als für andere Politiker. Das ist auch bei schlechten Umfragewerten so.
Aber hoffentlich schränken ihn die Mid Terms so ein wie es allgemein erwartet wird.
Likely outcome: wenn die Drohung nicht aufgeht probiert man halt was anderes. Konsequenzen gibt es von der Basis weder für das eine noch für das andere.
Always when I think our time line can't possibly get any stupider it somehow manages to do so anyways.
Google it.
Panel 1: Two swans, floating on a water, very swan-ily. P2: Same POV, but now the swans have raised their wings. P3: Again, same POV, but now the wings are fully up, and the swans' necks are lowered and extended. P4: GO! The swans shoot forward at speed, leaving trails of water in their wake. Their necks are fully extended, beaks open. P5: A side-on view of water against a green sky. P6: Same POV, but now the swans have burst into view. However, the only thing moving --at tremendous speed-- are their necks, stretching out impossibly. P7: We close in on a side-on view of the swans' heads, beaks closed in a look of swan-y determination. They are literally neck & neck. P8: The background begins to swirl as the swans pick up speed. They spiral towards the centre from the upper left & lower right corners. P9: A dramatic reveal of a Jack Kirby-like cosmic scene, with a blazing sun in the bottom right corner, and a "krackle" filled purple sky. The swans' necks spiral around each other

you may be right, it's ofc. just speculation on my part.
They're goading the EU to react unreasonably and help Orban turn this thing around.
One more argument for dedicated cloud services in the EU, right?
Not possessing a Switch 2 I'd hope for No. 2.
The UK's song contest entry has dropped and damn... how can you not root for an entry like this?

Wouldn't it be great if LLMs could use Roslyn to navigate a C# codebase, no one asked.
Here's my answer anyway: ScatGirl, sister project to ScatMan which handles NuGet packages.
Not the only time these systems came back to me with 'that would be a laughably implausible escalation of affairs'...
Could be two lucky picks of course but if the trend holds it's manufacturing consent in action..
I suppose by now it's a given that this administration desires a world with fewer democracies, more corruption and with Trump taking from all sides.
So true. I often end up in bucket two with PC demos :D
Made a little tool to fetch various metadata from nuget.org's artifactory. LLMs love to use it which was my primary use case. MCP server coming later at some point...
Love those leaves and sunshine rays - very moody.

A song from their new CD 'Fanal'
Back from Das Ich who gave one of their best concerts in memory. The band had fun as well, so much was clear.
Rightly so! Yet the same people who brought Trump and his ilk into power would gladly do it again when more competent fascists emerge later this decade. Trump is the result of a festering illness in dire need of treatment.
It's a fact!

So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.
I've reviewed over 50 Sticky Toffee Puddings over the last 6 years, but how did we get here?
I'm somewhat disappointed now that he's not - as his nick would make me believe - the 3rd Sticky Toffee Puddings guy on here.
Look everyone, it's the United Kingdom's act for Vienna! 🇬🇧
