Vladimir Putin offers a ceasefire in the war of aggression with Ukraine, but Ukraine refuses, in the interview various people were asked, but from cynicism as that this will not change anything anyway, to that the Russian soldiers would take advantage of this to implement their logistics, it is clearly visible that one does not hope for a ceasefire at all. What else can one say about this? Continue reading →
I've been a Netflix user for a few years now, and I'm happy to take advantage of the service (even though I don't have much time for it). Being able to watch movies and series at any time without annoying commercials ultimately ensures that I don't shed a tear for analog linear television, and am rather ashamed to read online how one TV show after the next flops and is discontinued. (Pro7 digs its own grave, Only 850,000 viewers: RTL lands massive prime-time flop, Only 400,000 viewers: Pro7 has two flops in a row)
Okay, so just to clarify, Germany wants out of coal and has reduced coal mines in Germany, until before Russia's war, Germany imported 50% of coal from Russia. And now that we lack these imports due to the sanctions against Russia, and we are winding down nuclear power plants, we need other sources of coal. While Poland itself needs the coal as an energy source, Germany has to look elsewhere. Now the coal is being imported from Colombia!!!!!!!
On New Year's Eve, people usually resolve to change something in the coming year, and then they don't stick to it anyway. I could fall into the same behavior pattern now, but I've thought of something different for 2023.
Well, the Western world is not welcome in Qatar with the 1 Love armband, but open hatred of Jews is welcome, somehow not surprising in a Muslim country, even if thousands of kilometers away from Israel. Here, too, we see that sport is mutating into a monster, a mixture of money, power, politics and ideology.
Actually, I don't know what's worse, the more than Fly 400 private jets to Egypt and no one reports big about this hypocritical behavior or that the German soccer team is so corrupt and prefers to abandon the values of the sport in order not to afford a lock in the soccer world.
Paid Climate Activists - In recent days, articles have been popping up all over the media stating that climate activist are being paid financially for their work. Some articles only include references, but not the exact sources and links. I have therefore done the work to follow up on a source and find the origin.
Recently I experienced my 28th birthday, not that actively wanted to head for it, but well, as it happens, birthdays are somehow repetitive and that's interesting every year to see how many people actually congratulate you on your birthday.
Of course, you can forget about it, but in this day and age, anyone who is logged into a social network like Facebook or LinkedIn gets a notification of a contact's birthday. Facebook even has a Birthday page for own contacts, broken down when and who celebrates his next birthday, depending on the setting even the age.
LinkedIn doesn't have this, but there are notifications and I was personally a bit upset that more friends from Africa congratulated me via WhatsApp than my more than 500 business contacts.
5, a whole 5 people have contacted me, 2 from China with whom I have little to little contact, one contact from Pakistan and 2 from Germany with whom I share professional interests.
Isn't that sad? I think so, because the business world is not only about numbers and money, but also about interpersonal relationships. I don't have to know a person particularly well, I don't even have to agree on a subject, but I do take the time to write to the person who is important to me. Of course, in these 500 contacts I also have people with whom I have no contact, who never answer me or are simply not online or only occasionally read my opinion. That doesn't bother me. But I have at least 50 people on LinkedIn who are important to me and maintaining contact is relevant to me. Of these 50 people, none has written to me.
Even people I work with haven't contacted me, even though I've even noted their birthday in my contact information and Google reminds me too.
Do people just not care about me?
I don't know, but even on Facebook some of my friends from Tunisia didn't get a notification that it was my birthday. It's easy to blame Facebook or LinkedIn now, so it's even more important that we don't just rely on them, but actively engage with our fellow human beings, with whom we work, but also maintain friendships and care. Whether it's checking in on family or whether that friend is in good health.
Do yourselves and your contacts the favor, make yourselves thoughts to the birthday. It's a small effort to set a repeating reminder in the calendar, but in return your contact or friend will appreciate it more in the long run and then everyone will be happy and no one will be hurt. And it doesn't even cost you money to write happy birthday to a person.
Therefore check your Notification settings on LinkedIn and that your birthday at least for your contacts can be viewed, this is the only way LinkedIn can notify you.
Facebook allows you to set your birthday via your profile and what information should be available to whom, this is the only way your friends will receive a notification from Facebook.
It's not hard to be a good person and wish someone a happy birthday. The easier it is not to worry and lose friendships, and then the harder it is to apologize.
Use your digital calendar to get birthday reminders.
There is no excuse today for such social misconduct when you have
Why the Metaverse is a disaster, Zuckerberg's value has plummeted from US$125 billion to just US$32 billion, and now even Costco Wholesale is more valuable than meta.
Personal opinion: Zuckerberg's decision was the dumbest of his life, because Meta is dying. 52% of the revenue has gone away. While Meta Horizon Worlds has 200,000 users per month, has Linden Lab's Secondlife 200,000 users per day.
Maybe Mark should have bought Linden Lab's sooner, would have had a better chance. I think I would probably invest in Linden Labs rather than Meta, which wants to forcibly change the Internet to create a monopoly, while Linden Lab wants to reach a solid branch of interested people
Man, like life, is full of contradictions. Everyone has an opinion, and most of them are different from each other. However, most people are not aware of these contradictions and even reject them.
