"Sleep Walk" by Santo & Johnny Farina (1959) was played with the steel guitar. It was the last instrumental to hit number 1 in the 1950s and it's still one of greatest songs in music history.

What's happening at Microsoft isn't a surprise at all. When it comes to H1B abuse, they are the worst. I am Asian and when I worked there, all the employees who weren't Indian were treated badly. Guys who spent decades building and maintaining key infra where booted out and replaced by AI and an AI (actual Indian). This is like handing a chimp a machine gun. They have no idea what they are doing, they have no idea what the slop they copy paste does, they have no clue how old systems work, and carefully built systems over decades were degraded by people who I don't think are actually even engineers. When I conducted interviews, almost 50% of the Indian applicants had fake degrees. We even had one guy who was hired (3/5 people were Indian and all voted yes against me and the white guy) as a Senior DevOps engineer who was a chef back in India, and ended up faking a bunch of credentials to become a H1B. He paid someone to take all his interviews. He only got caught because on day one, he was making IT tickets asking how to turn on his laptop. For Indians, the only thing that matters when it comes to hiring is caste. Are you a Brahmin? That's all that matters to them. They push out, bully and overwhelm every other race. There are many large companies now that operate like this. Expect major outages for key services, your data leaked non-stop and zero support for trying to get a service you pay for to work. Welcome to the new world of tech.

Starting to look like a complete strategic collapse in Yemen for Saudi forces.
Saudi fighter aircraft mistook fleeing PLC columns as advancing Houthis and bombed them resulting in casualties and equipment loss. A complete disaster is unfolding for the PLC in southern Yemen.

We have people flooding into Ireland who even need to be taught how to use the bathroom properly. Just imagine the types of animals that are coming into Europe from holes in Africa.

Protesty w stolicy Rumunii dzisiaj, ani jednej flagi EU. To jest bunt przeciw mieszaniu się elit unijnych w wyboray w niezależnych państwach.

Trump has said that the current funding arrangement that expires in 2028 whereby Israel gets $3.8 billion every year to help pay for its “defense” will end. What he does not mention is that they are now discussing initiating a new even larger payment that will run until 2033.

The Saudi backed PLC brigades along the southern coast of Yemen have announced their withdrawal towards Aden following a Houthi advance which threatens to cut them off entirely. This is a breaking point.

Just as predicted Zelenskyy left Ireland with another 25 million of tax payers money to help make sure Ukraine have “energy support fund” and they can continue to subsidise citizens to have electricity bills 7 times cheaper than Irelands. If I was in government I would ban this clown from the country.

Investors looked for AI winners "outside of Big Tech." Instead, the "neocloud" firms Nvidia fostered are getting hammered while the hyperscalers already own the compute. The AI boom is just a moat for the same seven monopolies.
Roundhill CEO Dave Mazza says companies Nvidia has been "fostering on this neocloud buildout" are "getting hammered worse," while hyperscalers hold the compute: "Big Tech ends up as the winner once again."

Ja…. Das wird mit Sicherheit nicht funktionieren. Wenn die Europäer keinen Chefunterhändler bestimmen können wird Russland so eine Monsterdelegation die aus 7 oder 8 Verschiedenen Positionen besteht sicher nicht akzeptieren.
Deutschland, Frankreich, Grossbritannien, Italien und Polen sollen gemeinsam mit den EU-Institutionen die Europäer bei Ukraine-Gesprächen mit Russland vertreten. srf.ch/news/international/gi…

Operation Gladio never stopped the troubles may have been part of it.
A former PSNI officer just told the Omagh Bombing Inquiry that a Garda acting as an MI5 asset drove the bomb car that murdered 29 innocent people. ​For decades, my warnings on British intelligence infiltration of Irish policing and the Drew Harris nexus were dismissed as fantasy. ​How deep does this collusion go?
