Alijev heeft geen idee hoe de situatie is op de Antillen. Bonaire, Saba en St Eustatius hebben zelf gekozen om onder Nederlands bestuur te blijven. Ze zijn nu “bijzondere nederlandse gemeenten”. Vooral de hele kleine eilanden Saba en st Eustatius kunnen niet overleven zonder Nederlamdse ondersteuning. Bonaire staat er iets beter voor, maar ze hebben alledrie veel financiele steun nodig. Self-sustainability wordt gestimuleerd en er zijn initiatieven daartoe met hulp van Nederland om de situatie te verbeteren.

Aruba, Curaçao en StMaarten hebben gekozen voor zelfbestuur, maar ook zij hebben (nog) geen sluitende economie.

Het apart behandelen van Nederlanders met Marokkaanse grootouders is natuurlijk zo racistisch als de pest.

In this ‘report’ of people who were not in Amsterdam, a movie of Macabi fans beating up a Dutch citizen is used. Read what the movie-maker says about this (and you can verify, because on several platforms the author-name is in the top-right corner):

How do you recognize your migraine? And what do you take for it?

If I can’t avoid it or if I’m in a hurry, I will take Paracetamol 500mg. If there is no change within an hour, I’ll take Ibuprofen 600mg. But if I have time, I will get some rest (avoid bright light, close eyes and listen to podcasts).

The precedent was years ago with Facebook and WhatsApp blocking alleged anti government messages (which the court branded as anti-nation, sedition). Last year the BBC documentary about Modi and alleged fascism was world news and led to the departure of BBC from India. The problem is that the world sees India as an emerging market where in fact it is a fascist country in the making.

You should leave anyway if you have a chance. Germany looking for 70.000 skilled Indians.

Robotaxi day was a total Snoozefest.

Robotaxi day was a total Snoozefest. After over 10 years of Full Self-Driving development, @Tesla is limited to a 20-30 acre geofenced 5mph ride on a preprogrammed, premapped and heavily rehearsed route with no traffic and no pedestrians. 1950s Disneyland guests would be unimpressed. Tesla is not a player in the robotaxi market because they are prohibited from running on public roads. Tesla is limited to yawn-inducing demonstrations in Hollywood studios while its competitors’ robotaxis transport 100,000 paying customers around major American cities every week. For all the hype that @elonmusk puts behind Tesla Full Self-Driving, it does not work. The latest version of Full Self-Driving travels 71 miles between critical disengagements, in contrast to Waymo’s 17,311 miles. Elon Musk is trying to compete in the Tour de France on a tricycle. Musk’s rhetoric at We Robot is merely a tired repetition of the same broken promises he made five years ago at Autonomy Day. Tonight Elon Musk said that Tesla drivers would soon be able to sleep in an unsupervised Full Self-Driving Tesla. This is the exact same promise he made in 2019 when he said FSD owners would be able to fall asleep and wake up at their destination by the end of 2020. The promised low cost vehicle that everybody was expecting to be announced turned out to be a two-seat cybercab which will no doubt be a big hit with families. Elon Musk has claimed that Tesla will solve FSD “this year”, every year since 2014, most recently in July. Now he has announced that FSD has been delayed another year until the end of 2025. That date will be delayed again next year as it has for each of the past ten years. Until Tesla robotaxis are transporting 100,000 paying customers a week around major American cities like Waymo does, Tesla robotaxi is nothing more than the latest work of fiction to come out of the Warner Bros. Studio. Optimus was a similarly disappointing snoozefest, with Musk’s promises of it being “the biggest product ever, of any kind” at odds with the dull reality of animatronic robots surrounded by nervous-looking Tesla engineers.

pushd and popd to change directory and go back when done there.

India is a problem.

Pay wall.

Thanks a lot!

Interesting: although the Dutch news outlets carry extensive messages about Karim B and his escape, none of them mention that it was him threatening Princess Amalia or PM Rutte. Amalia actually went to Spain to study because of the increased danger in Amsterdam. And then they find Karim B. also in Spain…

I wonder how credible this Politico article is and what the stories in Spanish outlets are.

Maw: Forum voor democratie is afwezig als er gesproken wordt over democratie (of een grootmacht die de poten er onder weg probeert te zagen).

I do not understand why you would want to walk to a gas station.

Not a word about the religious motives of this action in this article.

Mixed religion marriages are not socially accepted in India. When born a Hindu, one stays Hindu. Converting to Islam and marrying a Muslim is frowned upon (not sure, but I think it is even illegal in a couple of states). So the solution for such couples was to move cities and live together without officially marrying. With this registration, Uttarakand tries to stop that as well.

High power is a matter of scaling (and size/space constraints). To increase the power output, the membrane size can be increased or multiple power cells can be installed as explained in the article:

If you want to store more energy, just increase the size of the solution storage tanks or the concentration of the solutions. If you want to provide more power, just stack more cells on top of one another or add new stacks.
