  RE: https://social.edu.nl/@steltenpower/117004413003616123 Mijn duit in het zakje: Een donkergroene DPIA op je LLM of GPT met een gouden token-griffel en welgemeende complimenten over je verwerkingsovereenkomst op een bedje van algoritme-registers zeggen het volgende over zaken als duurzaamheid, ethiek, wenselijkheid, samenleving, rechtvaardigheid, inclusie, bias en menselijkheid: 👉 nul, noppes, nada, geen moer, zero en geen donder.. of meer in gepopulariseerd beleidsjargon: niets!.

  #openSource community: If you move away from Big Tech because you want more freedom, transparency and arbitrary platform decisions… Can (not may) a platform like #Codeberg decide which kinds of projects are welcome? Or is that the 1st step onto a slippery slope where today’s “obvious” exclusions become tomorrow’s subjective ones? Where do you draw the line between responsible stewardship and becoming the gatekeeper you wanted to escape? 🤔 https://マリウス.com/i-regret-migrating-to-codeberg/ #...

  I have a hypocrisy test: 😒 Listen to Marco Rubio for 2 minutes and 38 seconds. 🪖Imagine he is a #Palestinian… in fact, the leader of the military wing of Hamas. 🇮🇱 Imagine that when he talks about the #ICC, he says #Israel. 🇵🇸 And when he talks about the sovereign #USA, which has a right to exist, you hear Palestine instead of that. I think #Rubio would be the very first one standing at the fence of a military post on the morning of October 7th…

  Mohamed Fawaz al-Wahidi, PR director of Egypt’s official relief committee in Gaza, helped organize World Cup screenings for displaced Palestinian families. He never got to watch Egypt vs Argentina with them. About an hour before kickoff, he was killed in an Israeli strike on his vehicle in Gaza City, alongside two Palestinians, including a child. https://qudsnen.com/post?id=67984&slug=outrage-as-israel-kills-egyptian-aid-committee-member-in-gaza-hour-before-argentina-egypt-world-cup-match...

  Funny how people love saying “don’t mix sports and politics” whenever political abuses around major sporting events are brought up… then go silent when that principle actually matters. Still, I believe most people worldwide know this isn’t normal, and that silence deserves global condemnation. #notNormal #fifa #balogun #usa ✍️ The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2026/jul/05/folarin-balogun-red-card-suspension-lifted-usmnt-belgium-world-cup 📆 06 July 2026

  “some men had to have their testicles amputated by doctors after beatings, according to the Euro-Med monitor.” I still cannot understand how Dutch centrist parties and politicians who call themselves reasonable, social democratic, or progressive continue to refuse to boycott or isolate this Israeli government, or to stop arms deliveries, measures we do take against other hostile “axis of evil” states together with our allies.. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opinion/israel-palestinians-sexu...

  Sometimes you can’t help but feel grateful… for example, to the people and org's behind #PeerTube, a #video platform that offers an alternative to #YouTube, but built on values we consider important in education and science: openness and autonomy. Beginnings are small…but why shouldn’t each country have its own PeerTube for educational and scientific content, all interconnected?
