Nonsense since the 2024 European Parliament that has a big far-right wing. The EPP has already broken down a lot of progressive green policies with help of the far right [1], the "cordon sanitaire" is now broken.

Just as with most parts of the EU (imo both it's strength and it's weakness) there is some complexity and bureaucracy involved with founding out the political spectrum of MEPs. You can research the EU political groups and the political alliances and the corresponding positions on these Wikipedia pages.

See also the protests in Serbia [1] led by university students, that have been also mostly ignored by both the EU and the USA. The EU commented "they will not accept or support a violent change of power in Serbia", and the USA claimed they do not support "those who undermine the rule of law or who forcefully take over government buildings."

As an outside observer, hasn't Thiel's Zero to One has been treated like a gospel basically since it's publication in 2012? Aiming for monopolies and total control has been part of the strategy for a decade now.


No. Lots of us founders recognize that ecosystems create wealth and opportunity. Monopoly destroys it.

It works for one person on the short term but erodes society and all future opportunity.

Ecosystems are what built SV dispute a few selfish monopolistic pricks.


Apple bought the rights years ago, PBS cannot show them anymore, they are now behind a paywall.


Apple has streamed the Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas specials for free about a week before the holiday each year. This year Thanksgiving was free November 15-16 and Christmas will be free December 13th and 14th.


Do I need AppleTV? If so it ain't free.


No - Apple TV the streaming service is available on any device that has the TV app available, which includes Samsung, Sony, Vizio and LG TVs, Android TVs, Roku devices, Xfinity, Google TV and Play Station. You can also play in a modern web browser.


They used to (a year or two ago?) host them for free so you didn’t need a sub, is that no longer true?

(Sucks about the pbs part though, didn’t realize they’d stopped that.)


Frequently is false. Netanyahu only visited one European country after the ICC arrest order - it was Hungary because Orban explicitly managed he wouldn't be arrested.

Also, if look at the exact plane movements of his visits, they specifically avoid the air space of countries that do take the ICC seriously.

Hmm, I remembered various countries declaring Netanyahu was still welcome, and assumed that he was going to visit. I stand corrected, thanks!
