“In the aftermath of the strike, several social media accounts began to claim that the missile was American-made. Yet an analysis conducted by Bellingcat all point to the munition being a Russian Kh-101 cruise missile.”

tl;dr: Hinweise, dass das Klima sensibler auf CO2 reagiert als bisher angenommen. Deutlich stärkere Erwärmung möglich als seitens des IPCC bisher veranschlagt.

Kinderkrankenhaus, Baumarkt, Kachowka-Staudamm, MH17 - Putin verbreitet Lügen, weil es bei uns nützliche Idioten gibt, die seine Lügen immer weitertragen. Er beeinflusst damit unsere Debatten. Dabei führt Russland eine Vertreibungskampagne gegen die Menschen in der Ukraine.

Der eklatante innere Widerspruch in Orbans "Friedensbemühung" in Moskau ist, dass Orban selbst vorher immer wieder Entscheidungen blockiert hat oder versucht hat zu blockieren, die die Ukraine und ihre EU-Partner in möglichen Verhandlungen stärken.

Calling this "AI" is a huge problem. It's not artificial intelligence—a computer that can learn & make decisions—it's pattern recognition software. It's very sophisticated as far as that goes. It's a huge step up from mashing the middle autofill button on your phone. But it's still essentially that.

Yuuuup. On the technical side of filmmaking, Lucas is unquestionably the most important filmmaker of the last half decade - modern cinema is built on the innovations he and his team pioneered. But he's a shit writer and a mediocre director who absolutely requires mediation from others.

I think the reason Philip K Dick is still the predominant SF writer of the last century is, he was the only one who foresaw a future where everything would be boring, inconvenient and dehumanising, and where the only way you can win is to somehow refuse to give up your humanity.

Russia's offensive aimed to capture territory to bring heavy artillery closer to Kharkiv or even march on the city. However, within weeks, the offensive stalled in Vovchansk. Ukrainian forces, reportedly defeated the elite Russian 83rd Airborne Brigade.

Denmark will stop training Ukrainian pilots on F-16s at its Skrudstrup air base after 2024, as it transitions to F-35 fighter jets, according to Defense Minister Poulsen. By the end of the program, around 20 Ukrainian pilots will have been trained on the F-16.

Akhmetov's Steel Front donated CB90 assault ships to Ukraine's GUR. These high-speed, maneuverable vessels, praised by American experts as "monstrously powerful," took about six months to deliver. GUR servicemen mentioned the word "Crimea" during the handover, hinting at their potential use there.

For the first time, Russia launched four Kalibr missiles at Ukraine from the Sea of Azov instead of the Black Sea. The Ukrainian Navy noted this as a significant shift, indicating that Russia now perceives the Sea of Azov as a safer launching area.
