<p>Resident in <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Italy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Italy</span></a> for years - am interested in <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>politics</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/geopolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>geopolitics</span></a> plus <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>technology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>photography</span></a> and a few other things as well. I teach English to business people, often high level managers, hold the odd webinar and did translations from time to time. I like creating ‘paintings’ from photos.

    So, what will get us first? The return to #nazism or #AI or #ClimateChange?!

    @wood5y@mastodonapp.uk @ChrisMayLA6@mastodon.me.uk Indeed, there isn’t much hope, is there? #sadface

    While #Mastodon isn’t bad, it still can’t beat good old fashioned #RSS for snippets of up to date #news from providers you choose. Am, pleasantly, surprised RSS feeds still exist as do some pretty good #feed readers.

    @ChrisHolladay@mastodon.social @Nonilex@masto.ai With the current DOJ and SCOTUS, good luck with that. Sad, isn’t it?

    @John_Loader@ohai.social @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us Yup, that too. And that&#39;s not to mention the long term cost of security issues.

    @GeofCox@climatejustice.social @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us Good point. Am wondering whether it’s the massive borrowings of the super rich which are distorting the total in Switzerland. Remove those and the level of borrowing per head may fall to a more reasonable level.

    @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us Maybe, I really have no idea. But I’d love to know why. I can ask a few people I know and see what an LLM has to say on the subject too.

    @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us Wow, Switzerland surprises me more than Italy comes as no surprise at all.
