SpaceX IPO is loading.

But this isn’t a listing.

This is the most carefully engineered insider exit Wall Street has ever signed off on.

🚨🗣️Olivier Giroud on Madueke and Havertz:

“They seem more focused on mocking Chelsea than proving themselves at Arsenal.”

“Chelsea is bigger than Arsenal, and nobody can change that fact. So they should focus on helping their current team instead of wasting their time mocking a team that has won it all.”

[SHAYEE 𒀭 @tier_1st]

Pier Morgans 🗣️" The idea that Chelsea, after spending over £1 billion, are trying to take the moral high ground over us is equally absurd"

The way Olivia responded to him actually put him back in his place 😭💀💀

Let me categorically Debunk this utter rot. @sainsburys.

I am a poultry Breeder. The hens that lay white eggs (Amberline/White Star) DO NOT have a lower carbon footprint.

Yes they eat a bit less and produce roughly the same amount of eggs as the Brown egg layers (Bovan/Lowman/ISA Brown) but they live shorter lives, are prone to dying suddenly when startled, a flighty and nervous and because they live shorter productive lives (12 -18mnths) vs brown 18/24mnths (both commercial farmed), you have to incubate more which is increased (Electricity/gas costs) and their eggs are not the same quality.

I breed and keep 20+ different breeds, including: ISA Brown hens and White Stars. All my hens are 100% free range, Not a single barn kept bird, I have ISA browns that are 5yrs old and still laying beautiful Brown eggs, I have not seen a White star live beyond 3yrs and certainly none have laid eggs past 18-24mnths.
White stars Lay themselves to death. They are slender birds and because they dont eat a lot, it drains their personal vitality to keep up laying the eggs you want to sell because of the nonsensical lie that they are "More Carbon Neutral"

You want to know about eggs, come talk to someone like me, Don't rely on some hairbrained imagination of a buyer who's trying to squeeze the profit margin for a few extra pennies at our expense and to the poor hens detriment.

Breaking: Your smart TV takes a screenshot of your screen twice every second and sells what it sees.

It is called ACR, and it has been running since you set the TV up.

Texas already sued over it. Here is how to turn it off in under 2 minutes:

Today the EU made American AI illegal in 27 countries.

The reason is ONE sentence Microsoft's own lawyer said under oath:

This morning in Brussels, EU Tech Chief Henna Virkkunen unveiled the Cloud and AI Development Act. It's the most aggressive anti-American tech move from Europe since GDPR.

The law forces EU public sector procurement in banking, healthcare, defense, and energy to apply mandatory non-price factors favoring software and hardware built inside the EU. Microsoft Azure can be cheaper, AWS can be faster, Google Cloud can have the better model, and EU governments MUST legally prefer European alternatives.

AWS, Microsoft, and Google currently control roughly 70% of the European cloud market. Brussels is now openly targeting greater independence from US providers in cloud, AI, and semiconductors.

The largest regulatory market-share transfer in tech history is being written into law right now.

But the real story is how this happened...

On June 10, 2025, a man almost no one outside Brussels had heard of walked into the French Senate. His name is Anton Carniaux, Director of Public and Legal Affairs at Microsoft France.

Senator Dany Wattebled asked him under oath whether he could guarantee that data belonging to French citizens, stored on Microsoft European servers, would never be transmitted to US authorities without explicit consent from the French government.

Carniaux answered honestly. He admitted he could not guarantee it, because Microsoft must comply with the US CLOUD Act regardless of where European data physically sits. One sentence of sworn testimony from Microsoft's own counsel killed every sovereign cloud defense Big Tech had spent five years building.

It became the legal foundation for the law unveiled today.

Then Trump accelerated the divorce.

January 2025 brought executive orders expanding US surveillance authorities. Vance went to Munich and attacked European democracies on stage.

The tariffs followed and so did the Pentagon's $200 million AI contract war that ended with OpenAI replacing Anthropic after Hegseth labeled it a supply chain risk. So did OpenAI's Stargate and yesterday's Trump AI Executive Order, whose Section 3 lets the White House pick which AI companies get 30-day early access to frontier models. American AI was officially declared a US government strategic asset.

Europe heard every word of it.

On May 12, Mistral CEO Arthur Mensch told the French National Assembly that Europe had 24 months to build sovereign AI infrastructure or become a permanent US VASSAL state.

And the response came fast:

April 24: Cohere acquired Germany's Aleph Alpha for $20 billion with both Germany's and Canada's digital ministers in the room at the Berlin announcement. May 30: SoftBank committed up to $87 BILLION for French nuclear-powered data centers, the largest AI infrastructure project in European history.
Yesterday: EU Parliament announced it's dropping Google for French search engine Qwant tomorrow. France ordered every government workstation off Windows and onto Linux.

Today the Cloud and AI Development Act made all of it law.

- Mistral is building a 1.4 gigawatt AI campus near Paris by 2028 with Nvidia, MGX, and Bpifrance
- SAP's EU AI Cloud, launched last November, runs on Cohere, Mistral, and SAP's own sovereign infrastructure
- McKinsey forecasts $600 billion in sovereign AI needs by 2030

None of that money is going to Silicon Valley.

The America First AI policy built a wall around the world's most regulated economy, and American companies are on the wrong side of it.

Microsoft's lawyer told the truth in a Senate hearing nobody watched. Trump turned that admission into a national security narrative while the EU turned that narrative into procurement law.

And one entire continent walked away from the American tech stack...

Your IP is just one clue. Websites also check your browser’s timezone (for example, "Asia/Kolkata" doesn’t match a German IP), your Accept-Language header (en-IN can reveal your region), and your DNS resolver, which often still points to your home internet provider instead of your VPN.

WebRTC is one of the trickiest issues. This browser feature, used for video calls, can reveal your real IP address straight from your computer, skipping the VPN entirely. A website only needs a few lines of JavaScript to do this. Ask if your VPN provider blocks this by default?

If you’re logged in to your account, the VPN can’t help. Services like Netflix, Google, and Spotify focus on your account details, not your IP address. Your registered country is saved in their database, not tied to your connection. So, using a VPN while logged in doesn’t really make a difference.

A VPN changes your IP, but your timezone, language settings, DNS, WebRTC, browser fingerprint, and login details usually stay the same.

Excel Copilot already pulls from the web, your work (documents, emails, chats, meetings), and LSEG & Moody's financial data.

Just did a check-in with my folks working on these data connectors... the number of new ones landing in the next couple of weeks is pretty wild. Will post as they roll out.

A large percentage of Excel use cases are people bringing in data from various sources and mashing that data up for deeper analysis. Excel Copilot will connect to those different sources and help you get to the final results much faster.

A team at Oxford built a search engine for every drug the NHS prescribes, and it has quietly saved the health service millions.

It's called OpenPrescribing.

The NHS publishes its full prescribing dataset every month. It's 700 million rows of raw numbers nobody could actually read. So Oxford built a tool that turns it into live charts in seconds.

You type a drug name. It shows you which practices over-prescribe it, which regions are slow to follow new guidelines, and where the money is being wasted.

→ Search any drug across any GP practice in England
→ Find safety and cost outliers instantly
→ 70+ ready-made quality measures
→ Updates monthly, automatically
→ Free, open source, MIT licensed

20,000 people use it every month. Doctors. Researchers. Journalists.

Public data that sat unreadable for years is now one search away.

Get any ZEE5 plan and search for Unite8 Sports 2 on the app. You can watch the World Cup on the channel.

There’s no need of buying the ₹799 plan.

NB: There will be no 4K support. It will stream at 1080p.

🐧 Day 1/30 — #Linux

Linux powers servers, cloud platforms, supercomputers, smartphones, and embedded devices worldwide.
Before learning Linux commands, you must understand what Linux actually is and how its ecosystem works.

What is Linux?

Linux is an open-source operating system kernel created by Linus Torvalds in 1991.
The kernel is the core component that manages hardware resources and enables communication between software and hardware.

A Linux Distribution (Distro) combines the Linux kernel with system utilities, package managers, desktop environments, and applications to create a complete operating system.

Popular Linux Distributions:

→ Ubuntu – Beginner-friendly and widely used
→ Debian – Stable and reliable
→ Fedora – Cutting-edge features
→ Arch Linux – Highly customizable
→ Linux Mint – Easy transition from Windows

Why Linux Matters:

→ Open-source and free to use
→ Highly secure and stable
→ Powers most web servers and cloud infrastructure
→ Preferred by developers, system administrators, and DevOps engineers
→ Supports countless distributions for different needs

Understanding the Linux kernel and distributions is the foundation for mastering Linux administration, development, and cloud computing.

Love paying tax me:

Tax when I earn a salary
Tax when my business makes money
Tax when my business holds money
Tax when my business distributes money
Tax when I spend that money
Tax when I invest that money
Tax for services that don’t work
Tax from your local council for the home you can’t do anything with and for the potholes that remain unfixed and the bins that get collected if the bin men feel like it

But on the plus side I’m looking forward to my retirement at 75? 🙏
