Ну, и как?
Вот так:

Последнее время на фесбуке разные русскоязычные, вполне приличные, люди вдруг рассказывают о своих подвигах в разных там турпоходах. Как они рисковали тем-сем, там-то и там-то.
У меня появляется большое желание их отфрендить нах. Они что, не в курсе, что война? И что просто неприлично рассказывать про свои детсадовские приключения? Нет, не слышали.
Per the dw_news post regarding the MS/TN blocks, we are doing a small code push shortly in order to get the code live. As per usual, please let us know if you see anything wonky.
There is some code cleanup we've been doing that is going out with this push but I don't think there is any new/reworked functionality, so it should be pretty invisible if all goes well.
A reminder to everyone that starting tomorrow, we are being forced to block access to any IP address that geolocates to the state of Mississippi for legal reasons while we and Netchoice continue fighting the law in court. People whose IP addresses geolocate to Mississippi will only be able to access a page that explains the issue and lets them know that we'll be back to offer them service as soon as the legal risk to us is less existential.
The block page will include the apology but I'll repeat it here: we don't do geolocation ourselves, so we're limited to the geolocation ability of our network provider. Our anti-spam geolocation blocks have shown us that their geolocation database has a number of mistakes in it. If one of your friends who doesn't live in Mississippi gets the block message, there is nothing we can do on our end to adjust the block, because we don't control it. The only way to fix a mistaken block is to change your IP address to one that doesn't register as being in Mississippi, either by disconnecting your internet connection and reconnecting it (if you don't have a static IP address) or using a VPN.
In related news, the judge in our challenge to Tennessee's social media age verification, parental consent, and parental surveillance law (which we are also part of the fight against!) ruled last month that we had not met the threshold for a temporary injunction preventing the state from enforcing the law while the court case proceeds.
The Tennesee law is less onerous than the Mississippi law and the fines for violating it are slightly less ruinous (slightly), but it's still a risk to us. While the fight goes on, we've decided to prevent any new account signups from anyone under 18 in Tennessee to protect ourselves against risk. We do not need to block access from the whole state: this only applies to new account creation.
Because we don't do any geolocation on our users and our network provider's geolocation services only apply to blocking access to the site entirely, the way we're implementing this is a new mandatory question on the account creation form asking if you live in Tennessee. If you do, you'll be unable to register an account if you're under 18, not just the under 13 restriction mandated by COPPA. Like the restrictions on the state of Mississippi, we absolutely hate having to do this, we're sorry, and we hope we'll be able to undo it as soon as possible.
Finally, I'd like to thank every one of you who's commented with a message of support for this fight or who's bought paid time to help keep us running. The fact we're entirely user-supported and you all genuinely understand why this fight is so important for everyone is a huge part of why we can continue to do this work. I've also sent a lot of your comments to the lawyers who are fighting the actual battles in court, and they find your wholehearted support just as encouraging and motivating as I do. Thank you all once again for being the best users any social media site could ever hope for. You make me proud and even more determined to yell at state attorneys general on your behalf.
Схематично это выглядит примерно так:Я сразу же хотел это перепостить, но как-то не дошли руки, а сегодня я вспомнил о той записи, прочитав новость от Financial Times:
- Трамп громко высказывается о необходимости закончить войну.
- Все очень согласны: «Да давно уже! Непонятно даже, чего столько тянули».
- После этого Россия наносит по Украине демонстративный удар.
- Трамп озабочен, разочарован, рассержен и ультимативен.
- В Брюсселе и Киеве ожидают жёстких решений Вашингтона (наконец-то!).
- Москва сообщает о готовности начать переговоры и разрешить все вопросы.
- Трамп обнуляет все сроки, делая ряд обнадёживающих заявлений.
- Происходит очередной раунд «переговорного процесса».
- Выясняется, что россияне повторяют то же самое, что и в прошлом.
- Недовольный Трамп кому-то угрожает, после чего озвучивает часть кремлёвских требований, но уже как собственные.
Спустя «две–три недели» кольцо повторяется.
Donald Trump suggested in a meeting with European leaders and Zelensky at the White House last week deploying Chinese troops as peacekeepers in postwar Ukraine, lending support to a proposal first put forward by Vladimir Putin.
This whole August has had incredible “waning days of a dying empire” energy.У меня ощущение "бодро-весело идем на дно", в общем-то, с момента выборов. Но да, похоже, что скорость, с которой мы идем на дно все увеличивается.
The head of the DIA got fired with no explanation as part of some kind of purge and it was like a third-tier institutional purge story because of the Fed and BLS and the CDC, to say nothing of the attention paid to important matters like the Cracker Barrel logo.
Denmark summons US envoy over claims of interference in GreenlandОцените подмигивание, "the right of the people of Greenland to determine their own future", и также "The U.S. government does not control or direct the actions of private citizens".
Denmark’s foreign minister summoned the top U.S. diplomat in the country for talks after the main national broadcaster reported Wednesday that at least three people with connections to President Donald Trump have been carrying out covert influence operations in Greenland.
In a lengthy written statement, the U.S. State Department confirmed that the deputy chief of mission in Copenhagen, Mark Stroh, had met with Danish foreign ministry officials. It declined to comment “on the actions of private U.S. citizens in Greenland.”
“The U.S. government does not control or direct the actions of private citizens,” it said.
The department said Stroh had “a productive conversation and reaffirmed the strong ties among the Government of Greenland, the United States, and Denmark.” It said the U.S. values its relationships with both Denmark, a NATO ally, and Greenland and noted that Trump and his top aides had all said they respect “the right of the people of Greenland to determine their own future.”
Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says that DR’s revelations today underscore the seriousness of the matter concerning relations with the United States.И возвращаясь к надеждам (чьим-то) на гарантии Украине от Трампа и НАТО, повторю то, что я сказал десять дней назад: Он [Трамп] у члена НАТО территорию отобрать грозился (что-то давно уже не слышал об этом, кстати), какие, блядь, гарантии Украине?
She reiterates several times that it is both unacceptable and deeply concerning.
“I take note of the fact that the Americans are not clearly denying the information presented by DR today, and of course that is serious,” she told the Danish media.
She emphasizes that, from the very beginning, that President Trump was serious when he declared his intention to purchase Greenland. She therefore does not believe the issue has simply gone away.
At the press conference, the Prime Minister explained that she had “just a short while ago” concluded a meeting with members of the U.S. Senate currently visiting Europe.
According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the meeting had been scheduled before DR’s report on alleged influence campaigns.
The meeting was also attended by Vivian Motzfeldt, Minister for Foreign Affairs in the Government of Greenland.
“We have made it very clear that this is unacceptable. And it is something we will raise directly with our colleagues in the United States – who, if this were untrue, could very easily dismiss the claims,” Mette Frederiksen said.

А вот этот "big beautiful face on a banner in front of the department of labor", чтобы был понятен контекст:🚨NOW: Witkoff just delayed the deadline to end the Ukraine war until the END OF YEAR and said he has one wish: for the Nobel committee to realize Trump is the "single & finest" candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize since its creation.
