«Cuando Alemania invadió Dinamarca durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial el químico húngaro George de Hevesy disolvió las medallas de los premios Nobel Max von Laue y James Franck en agua regia, para así evitar que los nazis las robaran, colocando esta solución en una estantería de su laboratorio del Instituto Niels Bohr. Tras la guerra volvió al laboratorio y precipitó el oro para sacarlo de la mezcla. El oro fue retornado a la Real Academia de las Ciencias de Suecia y la Fundación Nobel dio nuevas medallas a von Laue y a Franck».

This is insane. I just got a warning that ICE is coming to my area in the next week to two weeks. I'm a Green Card holder, but they could still put me in a detention camp or deport me without warning — e.g. because I make social media posts critical of the government.

So until ICE have gone I'm going to have to hide indoors and avoid driving in case I encounter road blocks or get stopped on the street. 1/2

You prob know this already, but if you duck-search, you can go to a slightly different entry point at https://noai.duckduckgo.com to do web searches without AI slop dumping on you.

I see they've dressed up the landing page there! Now more obviously non-AI. I mean, it's a selling feature, so yeah, go to town guys.

(if you still google things, consider the duck search! it's worked well for me for years, and the non-ai version is a nice step forward).

Today, Wikipedia turns 25 years old. It's never been more important — or under more attack from authoritarians. Here's what to know about how we got here, and what we can do to push for its future and support them as they start to demand fair support from the AI companies that are profiting off of the community. There's no better example than Wikipedia of the web we make together. https://www.anildash.com/2026/01/15/wikipedia-at-25/

At Vivaldi we continue to make choices that are different from our competitors. We have chosen to not integrate AI or crypto, but instead we integrate a wealth of other features, based on the wishes of our users.

We are a European company with most of the team based in Norway and Iceland, a few around Europe and a couple in the US.

Our servers are based in Iceland.

If you want to get away from Big Tech, maybe give us a try? If you are already using Vivaldi, maybe introduce your friends?

Have a nice day!

FYI, the classic tale of Robin Hood facing off against the Sherrif of Nottingham does not typically present Robin as the criminal socialist villain and the Sherrif as a righteous property-protecting hero merely attempting to Make England Great Again alongside his nobleman friends. Food for thought!

There’s nothing extreme about wanting a functioning NHS, a fair distribution of wealth, and a liveable planet.

Que alguien le explique a los gobiernos europeos que va a ser difícil que hagan nada de espaldas a EEUU si todos sus ordenadores tienen Windows, todos sus documentos los escriben en Word, todos sus e-mails se almacenan en un servidor de Google, todos sus ordenadores utilizan Chrome como navegador predeterminado todos sus diputados tienen iPhones, todas sus comunicaciones sociales las hacen en Facebook e instagram y en general todo lo que usan son SaaS que utilizan como plataforma principal Amazon Web Services. Todo lo que estén haciendo en cualquier servicio o dispositivo de una tecnológica estadounidense está ya copiado en un servidor estadounidense sujeto a lo que digan los tribunales yankis y con que un juez diga "se sacan los datos que los quiero yo ver" es más que suficiente. Quizá los mails del perro sí que estén seguros si no tiene un pegasus de esos metido. ¿Pero los de todos los funcionarios? JA.
