EU project proposals have become a bureaucratic endurance test.

The application process is painfully long, the evaluations often opaque, and rejection letters can feel almost dismissive. Even when a proposal succeeds, far too much of the budget disappears into compliance, coordination, reporting, controls, and audits.

When roughly 60% of resources go to administration rather than impact, something is fundamentally broken.

Europe cannot afford to turn innovation into paperwork. We need a serious reform of EU funding: simpler applications, transparent evaluations, proportionate controls, and more funding directed to actual delivery.

@mysk don't believe for a second WhatsApp ever had E2EE at all.

• Same for Signal, Telegram, Threema, Matrix, etc…

If you can't

• self-host it's servers,reproduceably build servers & clients
  • dev. your own servers and clients w/ feature parity.
• as well as use it without self-doxxing aka. needing a Phone Number,

it's insecure!

Because Phone Numbers are intrinsically insecure, as they can always be linked to a device [Number->SIM->ICCID->IMEI) / client (SIP uses UDP = no Tor!) and thus trivially connected by circumstances to a person!

So go with PGP/MIME ( @delta & @thunderbird and/or XMPP+OMEMO ( @gajim and/or @monocles ) over @torproject!

• VPNs are snitches
  • If nachash wouldn't touch it, why should you?

FreeBSD 15 + CDE is probably the closest you can get to sitting in front of a high-end UNIX workstation without owning a time machine.

Running Common Desktop Environment in 2026 feels strangely refreshing. No blur effects, no Electron, no notifications fighting for attention, No ai written code, just Motif, terminals, man pages, and a desktop paradigm that was already mature before I was born.

Current setup: • FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE • CDE • dtwm • bhyve • Motif everywhere

RT @IamEmily2050: Die US-Regierung wird wahrscheinlich vor den Zwischenwahlen oder kurz danach US-Unternehmen verbieten, chinesische Open-Source-Modelle zu nutzen. In drei Monaten werden wir Modelle auf dem Niveau von GPT 5.5 Pro und Opus 4.8 haben, die für die Mehrheit der Aufgaben mehr als ausreichend sind und viel Geld sparen, wenn man eine Flotte von Agenten betreibt. Die weltweite Gegenreaktion wird interessant zu beobachten sein, und Europa sowie andere werden dem gleichen Ansatz im Namen nationaler Sicherheitsbedenken folgen.
