Du kan ikke vente annet av noen som er til salgs. Ulstein er, moralsk sett, et tomt skall.

I feel thereโ€™s a lot of stuff behind that ยซnopeยป we kind of want to know. Like if the script is going to be one of those rubbish illogical feelgood redemption stories we Europeans arenโ€™t particularly fond of.

If so, thatโ€™s not a racing movie Iโ€™d be particularly interested in.

And then they marketed the hell out of it so everyone is tired of it without even having seen it.

I fear this is probably as culturally representative as John Wayne playing Ghengis Khan back in the day.

It is also worrisome that some european militaries have taken a lax attitude towards securing the F-35 by requiring full access to its software systems.

There is a good chance the US can disable these planes if they were so inclined. For instance if Russia were to invade.

The US is now partnering with Russia. This makes buying weapons from the US a dicey proposition. At the same time, European countries are arming themselves. It is likely they will prefer European defense manufacturers.

I would keep an eye on European defense stocks.

This of course means the US has to resupply. Which benefits the arms industry. So the US has essentially been subsidizing its own arms industry by paying it to replace weapons going to Ukraine.

By cancelling military aid to Ukraine, the government is cutting subsidies to its own arms industry.

About 70% or so of US aid to Ukraine in the war against Russia has been weapons and munitions. Much of it older weapons that would have needed to be replaced at some point.

Get the message through first. Be clear. Have proofreaders work on the language. Never bury the lead and never require the user to scroll to get to it.

The you can go on and dive into detail. But those 100-300 initial words are make or break. Today most newspapers fail here.

A vital thing to address for newspapers is decluttering and design. When you click on an article today, the first screenful will most likely not show you any real content. That's a problem. What it should give you first is 100-300 words of quality prose that distills the matter.

Instead of playing a defensive game against social media and blogs it needs to step up and do what it can do better. Investigate, educate, explain and report.

This starts with good writers and visual design that facilitates actual reading rather than allowing distractions.

Vel, om vi myser litt tilbake i historien var jo Aftenposten nyttige idioter for Mussolini og Hitler i sin tid. Det er bagasje de helst ikke bรธr glemme.

There is actually a better way. At every single press conference: ask why AP was thrown out and if freedom of speech no longer exists until they get kicked out too. Then focus resources on investigative journalism and publish every piece of dirt you can find.

Interesting. Tesla stock lost almost as much value as Musk paid for Twitter.

I wonder if Musk buy short positions in TSLA before drugging up and taking the podium? You could make quite a bit of money that way.

How long before Canadian Mounties will have to make incursions into the US in order to disable supercharging stations within 1000km of the border. In case the entire fleet of Teslas suddenly receive orders from the Fรผhrer bunker at Mar-A-Lago to form up on the Canadian border.

(accusations that the new KDF leisure suits from Hugo Boss to be delivered with the new Tesla KDF Wagen are ripoff of Adidas' Gopnik Wear line are at this time rejected as malicious slander)

There are also plans for an elongated version of the Tesla Model S, called the Tesla Model SS, with a roof that folds down and handholds for up to three oligarchs, enabling them to salute the peasantry from a standing position while travelling over crumbling and bumpy roads.

On first delivery it will play a rendition of the Horst-Wessel-Lied and the new owner will be presented with driving attire from the new "Kraft Durch Freude" leisure wear line from Hugo Boss. A voucher for a small bottle of "Eau de Despote" is also offered as an added bonus.

On the occasion of the inauguration, Tesla will release a limited edition Model Y under the name Tesla KDF Wagen. The car will only be available in "Schwarzwald Grรผn" and "Khaki". Rather than indicator lights it will go back to mechanical indicators that are hand shaped.

Elon Musk wants Twitterโ€™s algorithm to be public. Itโ€™s not that simple. Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in an interview that he wanted to โ€œopen sourceโ€ Twitter's algorithm. But it isn't that simple, researchers say.

If he doesn't want to share this information it only means he has flip-flopped on the issue.

Musk decries government โ€˜censorship.โ€™ His X has been more compliant. The social media platformโ€™s new transparency report suggests that the site is more compliant under its high-profile, freewheeling owner than it used to be.

Because we haven't seen this deployed at scale for at least 3 generations neither moderate republicans, nor centrist democrats have any idea how to deal with this. Let alone recognize and articulate what is happening and educate voters.
