Druck auf Abgeordnete: EU-Parlament soll Uploadfilter rasch auf terroristische Inhalte ausweiten

Erst diese Woche hat das EU-Parlament beschlossen, mit Uploadfiltern gegen Urheberrechtsverletzungen im Internet vorzugehen.

Any Labour MP voting for this deal today is not delivering Brexit. You are rendering the U.K. a vassal state. You are propping up a Tory government. You are abandoning leave voters. DO NOT VOTE FOR THIS TORY DEAL.

Computer experts have claimed that the chips which power most of the computers in the world are hiding mysterious and ‘undocumented’ technology.

Analysts from Positive Technologies alleged that Intel chips and processors contain an enigmatic ‘logic signal analyser’ capable of reading ‘almost all data on a computer’.

Earth‘s Magnetic North Pole Has Officially Moved

Earth‘s magnetic North Pole has drifted so fast that authorities have had to officially redefine the location of the magnetic North Pole. The extreme wandering of the North Pole caused increasing concerns over navigation, especially in high latitudes.

The sun is quieter than normal, but don‘t panic

(11.3.2019)

Over the past three decades, the sun has been consistently dropping in activity. Maximum has been quieter than is typical; minimum has been particularly quiet. And this has caused some to make the false assumption that, as a result, Earth is going to cool.

Earth’s magnetic field is acting up and geologists don’t know why

(9.1.2019)

Something strange is going on at the top of the world. Earth’s north magnetic pole has been skittering away from Canada and towards Siberia, driven by liquid iron sloshing within the planet’s core. The magnetic pole is moving so quickly that it has forced the world’s geomagnetism experts into a rare move.

Sun Is Moving Slower Than Thought

(12.5.2012)

„Having learned for nearly three decades about it, I was literally shocked when we found it was missing.“

(…)

Still, considering the rays‘ expected effects, Redfield said, „it seems obvious to me that there will be scenarios or times when the cosmic-ray flux on a planet is important and [is] having a major influence on the evolution of the planetary atmosphere or even on biological processes on its surface.“

Surprise: Solar System „Force Field“ Shrinks Fast

(1.10.2010)

„If we‘ve learned anything from IBEX so far, it is that the models that we‘re using for interaction of the solar wind with the galaxy were just dead wrong,“ David McComas, principal investigator for the IBEX program, said during a NASA press conference Thursday.

For starters, it‘s been assumed that the heliosphere‘s expansion and contraction follows the sun‘s roughly 11-year activity cycle, during which the flow rate of charged particles, or solar wind, fluctuates.

40 Years After A Partial Nuclear Meltdown, A New Push To Keep Three Mile Island Open

DUP Statement

(27.3.2019)

However, given the fact that the necessary changes we
seek to the backstop have not been secured between the Government and the European Union, and the remaining and ongoing strategic risk that Northern Ireland would be trapped in backstop arrangements at the end of the implementation period, we will not be supporting the Government if they table a fresh meaningful vote.

The backstop if operational has the potential to create an internal trade border within the United Kingdom and would cut us off from our main internal market, being Great Britain.

Tonight we should have been toasting our independence – instead we face more time-wasting by the House of Clowns

Two years and nine months ago, on a day that was shocking and euphoric in equal measure, our country decided that the European Union had intruded quite far enough into our affairs, thanks very much. In the biggest vote in our history, we voted Out and March 29, 2019, was to be our designated Independence Day.

Brexit: Theresa May to hold vote on EU withdrawal agreement

There was uproar in the House of Commons after ministers confirmed the move, undertaken to let them circumvent a ban on Ms May repeatedly bringing her Brexit plans before MPs.

Critics even accused the government of doing something which “breaks the law” in its bid to force the prime minister’s twice-defeated deal back for a third vote.

Deutsche Waffen töten im Jemen-Krieg

Dadurch, dass hinreichender Verdacht besteht, den die Bundesregierung aber ignoriert, leistet sie Beihilfe zur Verletzung des Völkerrechts und zum Krieg im Jemen. Da nützt es auch nichts, wenn Heiko Maas bei der Sicherheitskonferenz in München von seiner Presseleiterin bei der Frage nach dem Jemen-Krieg einfach beiseitegeschoben wird und dass Peter Altmaier im Februar 2019 auch keine Kenntnisse über deutsche Waffen im Jemen haben wollte. Dabei sind diese Kenntnisse sogar ohne Nachrichtendienst ersichtlich und bedürfen lediglich intensiver Recherche im freizugänglichen Internet.
