#AngelinaJolie expresses: "Anything, anywhere, that divides or, of course, limits personal expressions and freedoms, and from anyone, I think, is very dangerous." Hopefully more people speak up publicly against this government taking away personal freedoms to hold more power within the white house. The best we can do is to follow sources, that still express criticism. Find ways to fund them. Be it by an abonnament, donation or however. #USA has to stay part of the free world.

#proofmewrong Free markets are inherently for free people. For their freedom to live or work, where they want to. Free markets use prices to indicate, where ressources are most needed and where they are in abundance. So when salaries are very high in some point, the free market requests for more people to move there. So border control is inherently against free markets. Therefore political parties, which request free markets and closed borders, already proof to have a logical fallacy within their ideas. PS: Criminals should be brought to courts, so they get their fair trial. So my note is not in favor of freeing criminals. But it is for #freedom

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/09/17/trump-whirlpool-tariffs-putin-poland/ Apart from#trump braging about being genious. Are there also any signs, that show his genious economically? Hindering US factories from being built, forcing inflation through his illegal pressure on the FED and his false claims of punitive tariffs to rise producing costs in the US. #trump supporters please kneel before your king for rising coffee prices with Brasilian "punitive tariffs" for enprisoning Bolsonaro for his failed coup. Thank him for making the US becoming world clown instead of wrespected world police. Netanjahu and Putin are dominating the US president in all questions of military decisions. The current #president of the US lets himself play like no president before him. The US more and more seems like a ship without captain. Or a captain that incapable, that enemy captains have more influence on the ship than #trump does. Trump really seems the fastest train to chinese world supreme power.

Such a greate note. It is too easy to fall in perfection trap and just completly loose track of other prats. Or loose all productivity to make sure privacy is protected. We do not have to be perfect. But better then the majority. View quoted note →

Are seeds already a part of current #opensource movements? I know this is rather genetic code, than software. But shouldn't we protect them as public good to reproducible plants, instead of private #copyright protecting these genetic codes behind legal saveguards?

#decision #gametheory Great video to show how decisionmaking is a scientific topic, where probability of success should be maximized. Definitly still there is lot of room for discussions. Since not everyone has the same goal. So in every society one has to finde out, what goals should be set. But the "how" should probably be answered based on reproducible science, rather than stif opinion.

Dear #right, #conservative #US citizens. I am not considering myself right leaning. And I would not say anything like it. I am no supporter of #trump or anything like it. But with current events, like Trump requesting loyal massmedia stations, every person who likes to live in freedom, should be highly concerned. And the people who support Trump are defnitly those, which can explain the issue with that to him the best way. The way he understands it. Freedom of speech means to accept ideas, one does not support. Or even expressions, that directly demonstrate myself in a bad light. Do you remember #JDvance in Munich? ( When Vance means what he says, than hopefully he is concerned about his president who says: "all they do is hit Trump. They're licensed. They're not allowed to do that." (Donald Trump 18th September 2025)

Great description on several points why #Windows sucks and how to create local Windows 11 logins. Whenever it is a option, I would always prefer the switch to #Linux, which makes me own the machine instead of being allowed to use it by Microsoft.

Elon Musk: Billionärs-Plan mit Tesla-Aktien

Elon Musk kauft Tesla-Aktien im Wert von einer Milliarde Dollar. Mit über 25 Prozent der Stimmen will er Tesla zur Robotik- und KI-Firma entwickel...

Wohl auch nur das aufbäumen der nächsten Blase von Elon Musk. Der ist doch immer mehr ein Abbild von seinem grossen Idol #trump und macht viel lärm um seine Pläne und verfehlt diese dann in hohem Bogen. Aber ja. Ich setze meine Hoffnungen sicher nicht mehr auf den Typen...

Tempo, Tempo!

Der Kampf gegen Geschwindigkeits­begrenzungen wird mit wachsender Vehemenz geführt.

Das ist doch klar reaktionäres und anti-föderalistisches Verhalten, auf Bundes und Kantonsebene Hürden für neue Tempo reduktionen anzuordnen. Gemeinden haben wohl besseren überblick ob es eine Temporeduktion braucht. Und sollen nicht zwangsmässig zuerst einen Lärmreduzierenden Belag zu machen. Dies ist eine Bevormundung der Gemeinden, welche nicht in ordnung ist. #Albertroesti so nicht.

Thanks for sharing this article. It seems a very important piece of the E-ID, we will vote for on 28th of september in #switzerland It seems non-negotiable to me, that whatever certificate that is verified by state authority, needs to be unlinkable. When one place wants to see if I am over 18 and an other place too, they should never get the chance to link those two events. And there is ways to prevent this technically. So I will vote yes. But I defnitly will only use the E-ID, when there is proof it is unlinkable when used. Also one of the developers told me, that it will be a highly increased security, when you go to the passport-office physically to create your E-ID instead of doing it via internet-registration. So please go there physically, when you want to create an electronic ID in the future and ensure your data is handled with best privacy. View quoted note →

Who ever never has read the declaration of the human rights. I highly encourage to read them.

Amnesty International

Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Here they are also available in a bit better quality. Just wanted to give the original source first. I think the declaration of #humanrights are really the source of individual #freedom . What do you think of the humanrights? Please refer to articles, no plakative answers, which are only following and forming some unrelated narrative about the human rights. You are human, so you can comment on specific articles ;)

Thanks for this great article. Signing is a usecase of asymmetric cryptography I only got to know with nostr. And I ask myself, why this is not widely used in the corporate world. Like with GPG to sign important documents. View article →

In order for #democracy to work, we do not need everyone to be living with maximum #privacy . But a democratic system needs easy access to good privacy for those who need it. Defnitly a majority usually has to fear less, since their opinions are already aligned with those who use their power to enforce their way. But in the end the majority will profit from the minority which makes use of privacy to criticise the powerful. Since once there is no practical layer of privacy, a small group of people will steal the wealth of the unprotected majority.
