Silicon Bites Ep275 | 2025-12-18 | Trump shits on everything and everyone when they cease to be useful to him. We will go back to his first chaotic administration to understand the patterns and see what he's learned in his second to avoid dirty laundry in public and the revolving door of sacked and disgraced aids, supporters and sycophants. We'll also ask, what are the implications for Ukraine, and the Trump security guarantees, as well as for Venezuela and an incipient war, based on a repeated pattern of behaviour in Trump that seeks to avoid all accountability, responsibility or blowback from his mistakes, actions and inactions, and clear venality that is happening in plain sight. There's a particular kind of political nihilism that doesn't merely break norms — it gobbles them up and splits the bones out in your face. It doesn't build coalitions or alliances; it burns them in a test of fealty and subservience. That demands conformity, obeyance and obsequiousness. It doesn't govern, but dominates through humiliation, coercion and bribery, and cycles through people, institutions, and alliances like disposable diapers.----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

2025-12-17 | UPDATES #081 | The clock is ticking for Abramovich and his Chelsea Billions. How much, why now and what it means. Three and a half years. That's how long £2.5 billion — money publicly promised for Ukraine — has sat frozen in a UK bank account after Roman Abramovich's forced sale of Chelsea. Today, Keir Starmer has finally stopped treating it like an awkward footnote and started treating it like what it is: a test of state power in a full-scale hybrid war.

2025-12-16 | UPDATES #080 | A post on X caught my eye, the gist of which was “Only a Russian official can invade and bomb you while simultaneously calling themselves a peacemaker and the victim a warmonger.” The author is referring to Kiril Dmitriev, one of the key so-called ‘negotiators' from the Russian side, and it highlights the absurdity of trying to build a peace process with the same regime that initiated the aggression and committed untold war crimes in Ukraine. Any such process pre-supposes that the aggressor has seen the error of their ways, in some sense recanted for their mistakes, even if not admitting culpability for the crimes themselves or any contrition. But the reality is so far from this. Russia seems to want a temporary “ceasefire,” because it is exhausted, and needs time to rearm and internalise the lessons of failure – the failure of its military strategy, that is, so it can come back again with greater lethality and success. As we'll see in this episode, Russia has disavowed none of its maximalist aims, and indeed keeps adding to the list of demands, and when the regime minions are honest with us, they are clearly saying that they do not want peace, but the capitulation and humiliation of Ukraine. ----------SOURCES: Reuters - https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/european-leaders-agree-ukraine-security-guarantees-should-include-european-led-2025-12-15/Financial Times - https://www.ft.com/content/24b9f90f-ee39-4fde-9efb-559c0cc8596cThe Guardian - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/dec/16/ukraine-russia-peace-plans-zelenskyy-berlin-talks-putinReuters - https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/vast-majority-ukrainians-reject-major-peace-concessions-poll-finds-2025-12-15/Reuters - https://www.reuters.com/world/eu-foreign-ministers-adopt-sanctions-targeting-russian-shadow-fleet-eu-official-2025-12-15/AP News - https://apnews.com/article/d80d64aa719ddc60575866f2c29e868eAP News - https://apnews.com/article/6a4c78360c51021bdb8c251bc230de38----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------LINKS:https://twitter.com/general_benhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Hodges https://cepa.org/author/ben-hodges/ https://warsawsecurityforum.org/speaker/hodges-ben-lt-gen/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-hodges-1674b1172/ ----------

2025-12-15 | UPDATES #079 | “Pax Americana is over.” We've known this for a while, but Chancellor Merz's speech still dropped like a bomb going off. And it was a warning flare from the centre of Europe's security architecture. In this episode we cover Chancellor Merz's speech, the Berlin peace push, and the emerging European fear that Washington is no longer an ally — possibly even adversary.This weekend, Chancellor Friedrich Merz told a party congress in Munich that Europe must brace for a fundamental shift in its relationship with the United States — because the American-guaranteed peace that defined Europe's postwar order is, in his words, “largely over.” (Reuters)----------SOURCES: Reuters (Dec 13–14, 2025): Merz “Pax Americana” quote; Berlin ceasefire talks; U.S. plan terms.Reuters (Dec 9, 2025): U.S. NSS attack on European democracies; “cultivating resistance” inside EU; Merz response.

Predstavte si, že stojíte pred veľkou fotografiou, na ktorej sú usmievavé deti ázijského pôvodu a medzi nimi jeden vysoký Európan. A pod fotografiou, na podlahe, veľké biele vajíčka. Môžete sa letmo pozrieť a ísť ďalej, ale ak zostanete a prizriete sa bližšie, objavíte veľký príbeh. V 3. epizóde podcastovej série „Čo skrýva umenie“ sa ponoríme do sveta umeleckej fotografie. Spýtame sa, čo všetko skrýva malá či veľká fotografia, prečo a ako sa môžu dostať staré fotky na steny moderných výstav a prečo si niekedy práca umelca pýta roky výskumu, schopnosti detektíva a pevné nervy. V epizóde sa spýtame aj na to, ako prezentovať komplexné a niekedy aj komplikované súčasné fotografické umenie, aby sme mu porozumeli, a či fotografia musí byť krásna, aby bola umením. Vyzistíme aj, prečo idylický západ slnka, ktorý si nafotíme na mobil, nie je umením, a kedy a ako sa ním môže stať. Objavíme aj punktum a fakt, že nejde o medicínsky zákrok, a utvrdíme sa v tom, že nepochopiť umeleckej fotografii na prvú dobrú je úplne v poriadku.

Krik, urážky, strkanie či hodená plastová fľaša. Posledná tohtoročná schôdza parlamentu sa skončila dramaticky. Koalícia bleskovo rušila Úrad na ochranu oznamovateľov a opäť, už po 11. krát menila trestný zákon. Nepomohla ani kritika prezidenta a generálneho prokurátora. Opozícia označuje novelu trestného zákona ako darček pre mafiu a Tibora Gašpara. Vzťahy v koalícii sú vyostrené, no väčšinu v parlamente si drží aj bez Jána Ferenčáka.Ako je na tom na konci roka vládna koalícia, bude mať aj ďalej v parlamente istotu väčšiny? Je možná aj rekonštrukcia vlády? Prečo vôbec musela koalícia tak rýchlo rušiť úrad na ochranu oznamovateľov a meniť trestný zákon na poslednú chvíľu pozmeňovacím návrhom Smeru? A čo prezident, ktorý vraj stratil podporu SNS aj Smeru do ďalších volieb? Ako to zvláda politická opozícia? A čo na to hovorí Európska únia? Čo znamená Ficova chystaná žaloba na Úniu pre stopku na ruský plyn a ropu?Braňo Závodský sa rozprával s politickým komentátorom Mariánom Leškom.

Év végi mérleg , New York belülről Magyarok Óriási Kalandjai Amerikában ep. 293   Ebben az epizódban Patkós Attilával ketten beszélgetünk arról, milyen New Yorkban élni magyarként, nem turista szemmel, hanem belülről. Ez nem egy „Amerika álom" epizód, és nem is egy panaszkodós műsor. Inkább egy hosszú, őszinte beszélgetés arról, hogy mit ad ez a város, mit vesz el, és miért marad mégis itt az ember.   Szóba kerül minden, ami mostanában foglalkoztatja az itt élőket, és ami az európai, magyar hallgatóknak egyszerre megdöbbentő, vicces és tanulságos.   Beszélünk a New York-i mindennapok abszurditásáról, ahol lassan mindenhez applikáció kell. Parkoláshoz, munkához, közlekedéshez, borravalóhoz, sőt néha már egy pohár kólához is. Megnézzük, hogy ez valódi fejlődés-e, vagy csak túlbonyolított élet.   Előkerül a borravaló-kultúra, ami Amerikában már nem udvariasság, hanem elvárás. Hol a határ a köszönet és a kényszer között, és miért néznek rád furcsán, ha nem nyomsz rá automatikusan a 25–30%-ra.   Hosszabban beszélünk a New York-i munkahelyi kultúráról, az „everyone is amazing" világáról, ahol mindenki kedves, mosolyog, majd egyik napról a másikra eltűnik. Összehasonlítjuk ezt a magyar mentalitással, őszinteséggel, direkt kommunikációval.   Külön blokkot kapnak a lakások, amiket látni kell, hogy elhidd. Konyhában zuhany, hálóban hűtő, kreatívan értelmezett szobák, és horror alaprajzok. Olyan történetek, amiken a magyar hallgatók egyszerre nevetnek és szörnyülködnek.   Beszélünk a biztonságérzetről New Yorkban, a metróról, az utcai jelenetekről, az ICE raid-ekről és arról, hogy mi az, amit kívülről túlreagálnak, és mi az, amit nem vesznek elég komolyan. Nem hírekből, hanem saját tapasztalatból.   Fontos téma a side hustle kultúra is. New Yorkban szinte mindenkinek van második, harmadik élete. Zenész, Uber-sofőr, DJ, csomagkihordó, alkalmi munkák. Szóba kerül, hogy ez szabadság vagy kényszer, és kinek való ez az életforma.   Nagyon emberi rész a barátságok New York módra. Gyors kapcsolódások, még gyorsabb eltűnések. Miért működik ez így egy ekkora városban, és mi hiányzik ebből egy magyar szemének.   Az epizódban kitérünk a zenei életre, zenekarokra, stúdiózásra, jammelésre, arra, hogy miért nem lehet levetkőzni azt, ami igazán belülről hajt. Arról is beszélünk, hogy mikor jön rá az ember, akár 50–60 évesen, hogy mit nem kellett volna abbahagynia.   Szóba kerül a foci és a világbajnokság, a New York-i páholyárak abszurditása, a sport üzleti oldala, és az is, hogyan próbálják az amerikaiak „amerikaisítani" a focit. Innen kanyarodunk vissza a magyar kötődéshez, a magyar tévécsatornákhoz, a honvágyhoz, és ahhoz, mi marad meg az emberben itthonról.   Az epizód egyik fontos gondolata a hiteles információ hiánya. Miért lenne fontos, hogy a külföldre költöző magyarok valós, használható tudást kapjanak bankról, munkáról, lakhatásról, nem legendákat és Facebook-kommenteket.   Ez a beszélgetés nem ad kész válaszokat, de jó kérdéseket igen. Olyanokat, amiket sokan feltesznek maguknak Európában, amikor Amerikáról, New Yorkról, kivándorlásról, újrakezdésről gondolkodnak.   Ha érdekel, milyen New York valójában egy magyar szemével, akkor ez az epizód neked szól.  

2025-12-14 | UPDATES #078 | A Russian drone hits Turkish cargo vessel VIVA in the Black Sea. This matters for Turkey, maritime security, and Ukraine's campaign against Russia's “shadow fleet.” We look at the increased risk for shipping in the black sea, both those that serve Ukraine's legitimate and legal export needs, and those that form part of Russia grey fleet trading illegally in oil. Ukraine says Russia hit a Turkish civilian cargo ship with a drone — a vessel carrying sunflower oil to Egypt — inside what Ukraine describes as a protected coastal “grain corridor.” And it happened within hours of Erdoğan raising port strikes with Putin. On Saturday, 13 December 2025, Ukraine's navy accused Russia of a deliberate drone strike on the Turkish vessel VIVA, describing it as a “targeted strike” on a civilian ship heading to Egypt with sunflower oil.

In this episode I share a very human, very imperfect moment I had with a traffic control guy outside my house, one of those interactions where two egos meet, both think they're right, and things go downhill fast.He was frustrated. I was frustrated. And instead of choosing kindness, clarity, or calm, went high and mighty. Righteous. Chest out. Ego leading the charge.And he did the same. Two strangers, both convinced we were justified, making each other's day crap within 30 seconds.That's the work of living authentically, catching yourself when you've acted out of alignment, owning it, and doing something about it. And as Steve and I went for our walk, I knew exactly what I needed to do: apologise.Not because I was “wrong.” Not because he “deserved it.” But because I know how I want to show up in this world and that moment wasn't it.This episode is a reminder that authenticity isn't perfection, it's repair. It's self-awareness put into action. It's choosing who you want to be, even after an ego slip.Have a listen. It's a good one.Read my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowOne-day retreat - March 20th, 2026Write into us - let us know what you want to hearWelleCo - use code KAT15 for 15% off welleco.com.auwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

In dieser Folge sprechen wir mit Birger Schäfermeier, dem CEO der tradAc (European Trading Academy AG) und Geschäftsführer von Arete Trading, über Trading, Mindset und persönliche Freiheit. Wir gehen der Frage nach, warum so wenige Menschen wirklich profitabel handeln und welche tief verankerten Glaubenssätze viele Deutsche dabei ausbremsen. Birger teilt seine Sicht darauf, was Freiheit eigentlich bedeutet, warum Emotionen beim Traden oft unterschätzt werden – und ob es überhaupt „negative“ Emotionen gibt. Zum Abschluss reden wir über ein Thema, das jeden beschäftigt: Macht Geld wirklich glücklich?

V novej epizóde relácie Za hranicou bola témou mieru aj vzťah Európy a USA. S hosťom sme sa pozreli na dokument s názvom Stratégia národnej bezpečnosti, ktorý opisuje zámery USA vo svete. Venovali sme sa preto zmenám v správaní Washingtonu voči Bruselu v porovnaní s minulosťou, ako aj budúcnosti NATO a Európskej únie. Reč bola aj o sebestačnosti Európy, či už v oblasti ekonomiky alebo obrany. Pozvanie do relácie prijal politológ a bývalý diplomat Petr Drulák.

Sir Richard Shirreff is Co-founder and Managing Partner at Strategia Worldwide. After graduating from Oxford, he served in the British Army for 37 years commanding soldiers on operations or in combat at every level from platoon to division and rising to the highest rank before retiring from the Army as NATO's Deputy Supreme Commander Europe. In 2016 his novel ‘2017: War with Russia' was published in the UK, USA, and Poland. He is an honorary Fellow of Exeter College, Oxford.----------LINKS:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shirreff https://twitter.com/RichardShirreff https://www.strategiaworldwide.com/our-people/sir-richard-shirreffhttps://www.globsec.org/who-we-are/our-people/gen-ret-sir-richard-shirreff https://www.brookings.edu/events/is-armed-conflict-with-russia-a-real-possibility/ ----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

The conversation dives into Russian strategies and the apparent shift in the U.S. stance on European security under Trump's administration. Shirreff and Jonathan analyse the recently released U.S. National Security Strategy, highlighting its lack of emphasis on China and Russia as threats and its focus on European institutions. They discuss how Trump's policies may be inadvertently aiding Putin's objectives by decoupling U.S. support from European security and undermining NATO. The episode underscores the need for Europe to bolster its resilience and unity independently. Shirreff emphasizes the necessity of leadership and clear strategies to face these challenges. They also delve into the implications of cognitive warfare, societal resilience, and the broader necessity for Europe to mobilize and prepare for potential threats. In the concluding segment, they highlight a fundraiser aimed at supporting Ukrainian soldiers by providing crucially needed vehicles.----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction and Guest Background01:21 Russian Strategy and US National Security Policy03:36 NATO's Current State and Challenges06:09 Europe's Need for Self-Reliance10:07 Resilience and National Defense13:37 Potential Future Scenarios28:54 Call to Action and Conclusion----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------

Do novej epizódy hokejového podcastu suSPEAK na ŠPORT.sk s Marekom Marušiakom a Rastislavom Konečným prijal pozvanie bývalý extraligový útočník, dnes 44-ročný veterán pôsobiaci v tretej najvyššej súťaži v drese HC Dukla Senica René Jarolín.Čo ho drží pri hokeji tak dlho? Ako zvláda kombináciu práce, rodiny, tréningov, zápasov a rekreačného futbalu? A prečo sa stal novým predsedom futbalového klubu v obci, kde trávi voľný čas?V podcaste na ŠPORT.sk rodák zo Skalice priblížil, že hoci už „päť rokov končí”, motivácia stále nehasne. V Senici pravidelne vtipkujú, či bude aj naďalej pokračovať, a kým dokáže strieľať góly či pomôcť prihrávkou, nevidí dôvod prestať. „Stále ma to baví. Je to síce amatérska liga, ale korčuľovať treba aj tam. Som rád, že sa popri práci aj hýbem,” hovorí s úsmevom.V rozhovore zároveň odkrýva aj svoj futbalový život. Popri hokeji hráva za TJ Družstevník Prietrž a od januára sa stal dokonca predsedom klubu. S manželkou pracujú na vynovení zázemia a snažia sa posunúť miestny futbal o krok vyššie.Reč prišla aj na syna, ktorý si síce príde pozrieť zápasy v Senici, no hokej ako divák veľmi neprežíva. Zato o to viac kritizuje. „On príde, pozrie a povie: ‚Mňa to nebaví.' On je takýto kritik. V sedemnástich rokoch už sa radšej bude túlať po meste,” smeje sa René Jarolín.V podcaste nechýbali ani úsmevné spomienky na roky v Skalici a na pamätné súboje s Popradom. Nezabudol ani na svoju pestrú hokejovú cestu po Európe. Zaspomínal si na pôsobenie v Edinburghu Capitals, kde zažil typický britský hokej s vášnivými fanúšikmi, ako aj na angažmány v ďalších kluboch na ostrovoch. Priblížil aj svoje obdobie v Marseille, ktorú dodnes označuje za jednu z najšpecifickejších zastávok kariéry.

2025-12-12 | UPDATES #076 | The financial battlefield is intensifying — the hidden front where the Kremlin is taking blow after blow, and where Europe may finally, belatedly, be rediscovering its spine. Talk about leaving it to the last minute as well. We must ask whether it's Ukraine's financial issues, their budgetary gap, that spurred Europe on, or the prospect of Trump getting his hands on the Russian Central Bank assets. Because this week, the European Union has done something extraordinary — something that has Vladimir Putin rattled. The EU has triggered emergency powers to permanently immobilize Russian state assets, edging toward using them to arm and rebuild Ukraine. Meanwhile, Moscow's central bank is screaming “illegal!”, Russia threatens to sue Euroclear, Japan backs away, France hesitates, Orbán obstructs, and Washington quietly manoeuvres for leverage. Meanwhile Moscow is activating all its embedded assets, agents and useful idiots to try and fight the permanent seizure of its former assets. ----------SOURCES: https://kyivindependent.com/https://www.kyivpost.com/https://meduza.io/enhttps://www.themoscowtimes.com/https://www.theguardian.com/ukhttps://theins.ru/enPublic statements by:European Commission, Russian Central Bank, Vladimir Putin, EuroclearAdditional reporting from:Politico EU, Reuters, Bloomberg (paraphrased references)----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

Today I'm speaking with Operator Starsky, a former Ukrainian National Guardian, blogger, and inspiration for everyone who is following the war, and supporting a Ukrainian victory. He has created one of the most popular and original YouTube channels dedicated to the international community.

The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------Silicon Curtain is a part of the Christmas Tree Trucks 2025 campaign - an ambitious fundraiser led by a group of our wonderful team of information warriors raising 110,000 EUR for the Ukrainian army. https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-silicon-curtainThe Goal of the Campaign for the Silicon Curtain community:- 1 armoured battle-ready pickupWe are sourcing all vehicles around 2010-2017 or newer, mainly Toyota Hilux or Mitsubishi L200, with low mileage and fully serviced.

A frissen meghirdetett Trump-doktrínáról lesz szó. Az új amerikai nemzetbiztonsági stratégia szerint Európát civilizációs eltűnés fenyegeti. A nyilvános anyag mellett – nemzetközi sajtóértesülések szerint – létezik egy hosszabb verzió is, amely azt vázolja, miként „tennék újra naggyá Európát”, miközben nagyobb önállóságra ösztönzik az európai NATO-szövetségeseket. Ebben Ausztria, Magyarország, Olaszország és Lengyelország is szerepel mint olyan partnerek, akikkel Washington szorosabban működne együtt. A részletekről Szabó Ákost, a Portfolio Global elemzőjét kérdezzük.Műsorunk második részében vendégünk Varga Bence, a HÉTFA Kutatóintézet és Elemző Központ elemzője, akivel arról beszélgetünk, hogyan alakította át a kelet-szlovák–magyar határ mindennapjait az átjárhatóság, és milyen lappangó feszültségek maradtak. Szó lesz a Miskolc–Kassa tengelyt erősítő gyorsforgalmi folyosó gazdasági hatásairól, a kimaradó perifériákról, valamint a kassai szuburbanizáció és a határon átnyúló ingázás ingatlanpiaci és közösségi következményeiről, és a keleti határrégió „paradox” munkaerőpiaci helyzetéről is.

Nová bezpečnostná stratégia USA môže zásadne zmeniť svet. Washington chce získať kontrolu nad západnou hemisférou a jej zdrojmi, zatiaľ čo Európa riskuje, že zostane geopoliticky oslabená a vystavená tlaku Ruska.

2025-12-11 | DAILY UPDATES #075 | Russia's war economy is running out of road. It helps explains why such pressure is coming from the Kremlin, via Donald Trump, to find a deal that can be sold as a humiliation of Ukraine that temporarily gets Putin off the hook. Are they intent on a stable and sustainable peace? Has the Kremlin disavowed its ambitions of hegemony over Europe and initiating more wars? Absolutely not. But they need a breather to regroup, rearm and replenish their war chest, stabilise their teetering economy and war industries, as well as reinflate the army. And Trump is dutifully obliging to try and enforce this ‘so-called' peace deal on Ukraine and Europe. Today's theme is simple and brutal: examining the impending crisis within the Russian economy, which one regime friendly economist has said will be ‘huge and inevitable.”So, these dire warning are not coming from “Western propagandists”, or the usual pro-Ukraine “Russophobes”, but is a true reflection of the looming crisis according to pro-Kremlin economists, Z-patriots, state bankers and regime-adjacent think tanks who are now openly talking about a big, inevitable crisis in 2026.----------SOURCES: Майкл Наки – YouTube & Telegram: “«КРИЗИС БУДЕТ БОЛЬШОЙ И НЕИЗБЕЖНЫЙ».

Algoritmy totiž nie sú neutrálne – cielene polarizujú spoločnosť a podľa nových analýz nám dokonca nenápadne podsúvajú hodnoty.Technológie zasa začínajú oživovať mŕtvych.

Európska únia hľadá spôsob, ako dlhodobo financovať Ukrajinu bez ďalšieho zadlžovania členských štátov. Najhorúcejším riešením je využitie zmrazených ruských aktív, ktoré sú uložené najmä v Belgicku. Podľa výkonného riaditeľa Inštitútu pre európsku politiku Europeum Martina Vokálka je využitie zmrazených ruských aktív najférovším a najudržateľnejším riešením – a zároveň výrazne lepším než všetky ostatné alternatívy, hovorí v relácii PRAVDA VO SVETE.

O chvíľu to budú už štyri roky krvavej vojny Ruska proti Ukrajine. Vojny, ktorú chcel mať Putin ako špeciálnu vojenskú operáciu vybavenú za tri dni. A ktorú chcel do 24 hodín ukončiť Trump.

Budapest utcáit ma rózsaszín és kék színű futárkabátok lepik el – és ez nem teljesen konfliktusmentes. Ebben az adásban Liptay Orsit, a Magyar Kerékpárosklub kampánymenedzserét hívtuk meg, hogy elmesélje, mi történik akkor, ha valaki megelégeli a kommentáradatot („minden futár szabálytalan”), hanem kerít egy pályázatot, szervez egy interkulturális tréninget, behozza a Futárok Ligáját és kinyomtat mellé egy háromnyelvű kisokost. Beszélgettünk arról, hogyan született a Terézvárosban futó „Biztonságos járdák” projekt, hogyan lett a 70 oldalas kerékpáros kisokosnak angol–urdu–vietnámi nyelvű változata, mit csinál a Futárok Ligája a színfalak mögött, és miért fontos, hogy ne csak bírság és „no police, no accident” jusson a futároknak, hanem érthető információ is. Szó volt idegengyűlöletről, a torzításainkról („ha futárdoboz van rajta, biztos szabálytalan”), arról, milyen érzés fogmosópohárral meregetni a vizet egy süllyedő csónakból –, és arról is, hogy közben milyen elképesztően pozitív visszajelzések érkeztek mind a futároktól, mind a gyalogosoktól egyaránt. Ha érdekel, mit tud tenni pár önkéntes és egy kerületi pályázat a kommentháborúk helyett, akkor ez az adás neked szól.

„Predstavte si svet bez inštitúcii. Je to svet, kde akoby sa rozplynuli hranice medzi krajinami a zostáva iba jedna nekonečná zem, ktorou križujú ľudia a hľadajú komunity, čo už neexistujú.“ Takto začína britský historik Keith Lowe svoje rozprávanie o Európe krátko po druhej svetovej vojne vo svojej už kultovej knihe Krutý kontinent. Na prvý pohľad sa môže zdať, že je to obraz, ktorý sa týka predovšetkým rozsiahlych oblastí zbombardovaného Nemecka. No v rozličnej miere opisuje každú krajinu a každé mesto, i u nás na Slovensku. Príkladom sú Nové Zámky, ktoré sa stali na konci vojny jedným z našich miest s najväčšou mierou deštrukcie. Deštrukcia sa však rovnako dotkla aj dovtedajších politických systémov a sociálnych vzťahov. Aj naša krajina si musela prejsť procesom okupácie, oslobodzovania a povojnovej obnovy. Ako tento proces vyzeral a je možné rok 1945 vnímať v istom zmysle ako bod nula, keď sa muselo začínať od začiatku? Na verejnej diskusii v rámci konferencie s názvom Na rozvalinách vojny, ktorú organizovalo Múzeum SNP, sme sa rozprávali s troma hosťami – historikom a germanistom Miloslavom Szabóom z Filozofickej fakulty UK, historikom Antonom Hruboňom z Fakulty politických vied a medzinárodných vzťahov UMB a s publicistom a spisovateľom Marekom Hudecom. – Ak máte pre nás spätnú väzbu, odkaz alebo nápad, napíšte nám na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠jaroslav.valent@petitpress.sk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠sme.sk/podcasty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode is exactly what it sounds like. No love. No light. The other day, Steve and I were driving in the car airing our annoyances, the stuff that grinds our gears and halfway through we looked at each other and thought, why not share this? Because this is what relationships look like too.It's not always kissing and cuddling and smooching. It's not always conscious communication and being hyper-aware. Sometimes it's just getting things off your chest, laughing about it, and moving on.This one's light, funny and very human. If you're in a relationship and thought you were doing it wrong because it isn't all rosy all the time, you're not, it's just life.Read my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowOne-day retreat - March 20th, 2026Write into us - let us know what you want to hearWelleCo - use code KAT15 for 15% off welleco.com.auwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

The United Nations has confirmed what residents of Kherson, and Zarina Zabrisky, revealed nearly a year ago: Russia's drone attacks on civilians were systematic, premeditated and intended to instil terror and forcibly displace the population. A deliberate war crime. ----------Zarina Zabrisky is an American writer based in the Bay Area, California. She is the author of the novel, We, Monsters, several collections of short stories, including Explosion, A Cute Tombstone and her debut work, Iron, and a book of collaborative poetry and art, Green Lions, co-written with Simon Rogghe. Zabrisky is currently based in Odesa, Ukraine. From the beginning of the 2022 full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, Zabrisky has been reporting on the war in Ukraine for Euromaidan Press, Byline Times and A Community Alliance, and has been published in The Paris Review and various other publications. ----------ARTICLE:https://bylinetimes.com/2025/09/08/a-serious-escalation-putin-launches-russias-largest-aerial-assault-on-ukraine-since-2022/https://bylinetimes.com/2025/05/29/un-confirms-russian-drone-attacks-on-kherson-are-crimes-against-humanity-and-war-crimes/LINKS:http://www.zarinazabrisky.com/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zarina_Zabriskyhttps://euromaidanpress.com/author/zarinazabrisky/https://kyivindependent.com/author/zarina-zabrisky/https://bylinetimes.com/author/zarinazabrisky/https://empr.media/discover-ukraine/movie/an-american-journalist-presented-the-film-kherson-human-safari/----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.
