Did you know that the "fiercely independent pro-Europe" news site euronews.com is 97% owned by a VC firm run by a close friend of Hungary's Viktor Orbรกn?
That the the International Federation of Journalists called for a European parliamentary inquiry into the Euronews manipulation of the 2024 European Parliament election?
That aforementioned VC firm was fined for facilitating money laundering and financing of extremist organizations?
Be very wary of @euronews.

The Pebble smartwatch team shares all of the ways Apple prevents other smartwatches from doing the same thing that Apple Watch does.
Your smartwatch canโt send texts, respond to notifications or talk to iOS apps unless itโs an Apple Watch. No one is allowed to build a device that connects to an iPhone as well as an Apple device.

The @wikimediafoundation will switch traffic between its data centers today (19 March) at around 14:00 UTC.
This is done twice a year to make sure that #Wikipedia and the other #Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster.
You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.
More info: meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tech/Sโฆ
The really nerdy and cool information (which I'm sure some of you are here for!) about how the switch takes place is at wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Swโฆ

So both wikimedia 'Application' datacenters (eqiad & codfw) are in the USA (all the others are caching).
