"Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has presented the Ataturk International Peace Award to Antonio Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, during a ceremony in Ankara."
Und Guterres hat nichts besseres zu tun, als unterwürfig den Preis aus dem Händen eines möchtegern-Diktators anzunehmen?

It has been an extraordinary 24 hours in global markets
Oil prices have tumbled back from the four-year highs they hit on Monday
after Donald Trump suggested the US-Israel war on Iran could end “very soon”.
This time yesterday, Brent crude, the international benchmark, surged beyond $100 per barrel for the first time since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022
– triggering stark sell-offs across leading Asian and European stock indices.

The Funeral of Handwriting: What We Lose When the Hand Stops Moving
In 2010, the Common Core State Standards Initiative dropped cursive instruction from its recommended curriculum. The decision arrived without ceremony. No public debate, no period of mourning, no recognition that a cognitive practice stretching back to the Sumerian reed stylus was being retired from American education. Forty-one states adopted the standards. Cursive, along with its slower sibling…

I think everybody dumping on Trump and his gimme hat at the transfer ceremony are ignoring the fact that his hat was a brand new white one with gold trim, really classy, and not one of his cheesy red ones made in China (although who knows where this one was made). /s

Donald Trump ordered the U.S. military into Ecuador this week to strike drug cartels,
-- and now he’s poised to do the same in more than a dozen other Latin American countries under a new proclamation he signed Saturday.
In remarks before the signing ceremony, flanked by the leaders of many of those countries,
🔥Trump described the proclamationas “a commitment to using lethal military force to destroy the sinister cartels and terrorist networks.”

Opening ceremony involves speaker asking the crowd individually why they are here. Mostly they seem to want to know how to use ai. And not lose their job.
Didn't ask me so didn't get to say that I'd like to learn how to defensively fight ai and prevent it spamming up the web.
