"Grundfos is a global leader in advanced pump and water solutions, renowned for its highly efficient, reliable, and sustainable pumping systems."

Yeah, what that means is that they are going to be the de facto choice for pumps for european DCs, and yet they are asking the EU to build fewer of them, which will mean less business for them. This doesn't mean what you think it means. Unlike in the USA, a lot of major European corporations are still run with sustainability in mind. They would like there to be a tomorrow for them to profit in.

The analogy is not quite right. Meta are not analogous to drug dealers. They are analogous to drug designers who tweak the formula to make it as addictive as possible, ignoring any harms.

They are both things, as they are both producing the product and delivering it to the end user, and they are collecting the revenues.

Submission + - How to turn a 0day into a PR disaster: bully security researchers (heise.de)

Elektroschock writes: Microsoft bullied the publisher of BlueHammer (CVE-2026-33825), RedSun (CVE-2026-41091), UnDefend (CVE-2026-45498), YellowKey (CVE-2026-45585), and GreenPlasma/MiniPlasma (CVE-2020-17103 derivatives). A GitHub account was deleted, another account locked down, threats of international legal charges were made, and public law enforcement tipped off. That is a really unpleasant way to deal with a security nightmare of one’s own making. According to Microsoft, the courtesy of informing the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) in advance was not extended. The researcher refutes that claim and speaks of layoffs of competent security staff, blocked accounts, and broken communication channels. There are also rumours of new formality requirements concerning video attachments.

NiMH also doesn't eat shit immediately if you deep discharge it once and leave it that way for a few days, which is my favorite thing about it. A lot of chargers are too dumb to recharge deeply discharged cells, though. Of my three NiMH chargers, only one will do it. I love eneloop batteries, but the eneloop bundled charger is trash...

The only reason he'd need all that would be for some nefarious shit

Or they needed to bribe or hire a bunch of people.

That's not an "or".

everything the CIA does is nefarious. Doing dastardly deeds on our behalf is their job.

I am not paying taxes for the purpose of having feds violate the law, national or international.
