The Greenland sea cables are probably being closely monitored, but redundancy seems minimal likely limited to OneWeb satellite connectivity and some VSAT links.
Looking at the routing side, AS8818 announces just two /19s and one /22 (and two /32s in IPv6) with a single upstream provider, Level 3 Inc. This suggests that Layer 3 redundancy is even more constrained.

KPMG gets money off its own audit by arguing Al makes accounting cheaper
Financial Times UK
STEPHEN FOLEY — NEW YORK
7 Feb 2026
KPMG has negotiated lower fees from its own accountant by arguing that AI will make it cheaper to do the work, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Big Four firm told its auditor, Grant Thornton UK, it should pass on cost savings from the rollout of Al and threatened to find a new accountant if it
did not agree to cut fees,…

Figures from Ideagen Audit Analytics, which tracks public company disclosures, have shown audit fees continuing to climb as accounting firms ploughed money into Al investments in recent years. Its European survey found average audit fees rose in every country bar one in the previous year.
KPMG's behind-the-scenes argument that new tech could justify a fee cut for its own audit could embolden companies to press their accountants for similar reductions.

A hand holding a small card with printed text and a golden rose illustration, followed by a block of text below the photo. The card has a golden rose graphic and text stating, "You are like a beautiful rose. Each time you engage in premarital sex, a precious petal is stripped away. Don't leave your future husband holding a bare stem. Abstain." Below the photograph, there is a paragraph of text describing how the speaker tested the metaphor by counting petals on a yellow rose bush, concluding pr…

Die heißeste Tech-Karriere 2026? Nicht Coden. Schreiben. Laut Amanda Hoover zahlen Firmen wie Netflix oder Anthropic bis zu 775.000 $, um KI verständlich zu erklären und die „AI-Story“ zu erzählen. Ironie der Geschichte: Nachdem Maschinen Texte erzeugen, braucht es Menschen, die erklären, was das alles eigentlich bedeutet.

Hey @…, you want to incentivise small sustainable online organisations in the EU (e.g., small not-for-profits like Small Technology Foundation) as an alternative to Big Tech?
Raise the EU's €10,000 cross-border OSS threshold to €1M (or even €10M).

I really like my Presonus speakers. They sound decent! But they take up a lot of space and have lots of wires. I'd love something in a soundbar form factor and am willing to take a small hit in driver size and stereo separation for it. But not a cheap plastic box.

A close-up image shows a section of a dark brown animal's skin with a brand. The brand consists of a stylized horseshoe forming a letter “M”. The skin texture is smooth with short dark hair visible above the branded area. The brand is a raised, dark brown imprint on the skin.

Щойно побачив, що Токодон НЕ зберігає альт-текст, який я додаю до картинок.
Тобто все, що я постив через Токодон (а це більше половини постів) з розлогими описами — тупо марно.

Just found out that Tokodon did NOT save the alt text that I added for the pictures. Meaning all I previously posted via Tokodon (that's more than a half of everything) with lengthy descriptions was a waste of time and effort.
