  • The Next Generation of Solar Technology: An Introduction to Solar Paint and Solar Glass

    Jump

  • @sparseMatrixIt is happening relatively fast. Solar glass is already in production, at least as good as I know in Spain (the Spanish startup Onyx Solar is one of the pioneers in the area. They have already implemented solutions in buildings in Spain, Australia, Saudi Arabia and a prototype of a new version of the product in Israel.

  • German intel: AfD taken over by extremist factions

    Jump

  • @BlackRose I am wondering whether the increase of the AfD together with the actual momentum of extreme right wing parties in other countries can jeopardize the estability of European institutions after the next European elections.

    Meta won’t say what happened to taxpayer data it may have illegally collected

  • @hariette Is it possible as a user to change the background of this thread? It cannot be read with the kbin mobile webapp. It happens only with this specific thread and previous posts about Artemis.

  • Twitter threatens to sue Meta over Threads app – report

  • Are you going to try Meta's Threads?

    Jump

  • @bathrobe I don't know about tiktok, but I think that it is the same data that Facebook collects. And the worst is what we have at the end, "Other Data". That means, each moment Meta can decide to collect yet more things without to inform the user.

  • Encryption With A Back Door Is NOT Encryption

    Jump

  • @Ronno No really, if I understood well the proposal is not that every channel will have a backdoor. Probably that is a request only for citizens, and maybe most companies, but I don't think that it will apply to banks, finance institutions or to the state.Or maybe I misunderstood something... I'm not sure.

  • Kremlin spokesman: Prigozhin case will be dropped, he will move to Belarus

    Jump

  • @DarkGamer what it will be difficult will be to absorb into Russian forces the teams of Wagner deployed in other countries, especially African countries. They have been deployed as private contractors working for the local government or for local rebel groups. But... as part of the Russian Army that is diplomatically unsustainable (only exception Syria, since Russia is present there).

    @LollerCorleone

  • Kremlin spokesman: Prigozhin case will be dropped, he will move to Belarus

    Jump

  • @chaogomu Right:

    • Putin's regime looks weak... to negotiate with a private company to avoid that their attack the capital of the country (a private company, not the NATO, not a bit terror organization) looks not really good.
    • The Russian army doesn't seem to be able to defend the Russian territory from the incursion of an organized armed force (able to occupy in hours a town with more than one million inhabitants)
    • Wagner doesn't look now as a company in which future stakeholders can trust, and trust is the base of the work of contractors.

    I think it is embarrassing for everyone involved.

    @LollerCorleone @entropicshart @endlessvoid

  • Kremlin spokesman: Prigozhin case will be dropped, he will move to Belarus

    Jump

  • @endlessvoid And what is the goal? Now the results after the performance looks like;

    • Putin and the actual regime are weak: armed contractors leave their positions, enter in national territory and occupied a bit town without that the army is able to stop them. At the end and for the first time Putin's regime negotiates publicly with an oppositional illegal armed force inside its territory. Result: the regime show weakness.
    • Wagner as a contractor leaves the places in the line of combat and revolts against their actual employer: Result: Wagner cannot be trusted by future employers.
    • Since Prigozhin is not more in Russia/Ukraine, and it has been exiled, the command chain and control on Wagner is not more stable. At the same time the Russian Army doesn't seem able to take control of it, at least outside of Russia/Ukraine. Which control does now Russia have about the contracts in Syria, Africa, etc?

    To be a theater... it doesn't seem to have a goal. Everyone seems here to be a loser: Wagner not more a successful company, Putin not more the head of a strong regime, the Russian army not more able to defend their territory against a armed force (worse, against a private company, not even a country or a terror organization).

    For me more than a theater it looks like symptoms of decadence.

  • Incoming reports of Wagner Group soldiers leaving their missions in Africa and Syria to join the military coup in Russia against Putin.

    Jump

  • @shishmish And how they leave their place and arrive to Russia? Russian airports and sky are at the moment under governmental control. And I don't think that Syria will take part on the conflict organizing flights to Wager.

  • 'No kill' meat, grown from animal cells, is now approved for sale in the U.S.

  • That would be ideal, it would be possible to consume meat keeping cruelty free standards. Hopefully it will happen soon.

  • @SpeckleHey, unfortunately to send messages between different servers is not yet possible, but OK, here a few links

    • Documentation blog of the EHRI Project (European Holocaust Research Infrastructure). Here you can find lots of articles. Focus of the blog is publication of research and work in different areas: historiography, archival science, digital humanities and holocaust, etc.https://blog.ehri-project.eu/
