Corrupt MEPs in the EU

#Huawei targeted in new #European #Parliament #corruption probe

"Authorities suspect that Huawei #lobbyists have paid bribes to #MEPs in return for backing their cause in the #EuropeanUnion. Around 15 former and current MEPs are “on the radar” of the #investigators."

#Trump is a psychopath
will go ahead with provocations threats insults
until a breaking point is reached

Then Trump will declare #emergency
and that a military 'control' of #Canada resources
is necessary for US 'national security'

Canada must prepare militarily
contact the #European #Allies and #Mexico
make plan
Because when things will get BAD in #US
(and they will)
the solution of all #fascist #dictators
is to declare war to someone
And Canada has the misfortune of being close to the #USA.

If #Trump throwing #Ukraine to the wolves means losing #allies, huge industrial manufacturing deals with former #European allies, US #defense industry kissing billions in deals goodbye, countless other forms of long term collateral damage, AND polls, the #GOP will reconsider their position. That's why it's our best route to pour on, heavy negativity, every angle.

Do you need an #European e-reader and tablet?

The reMarkable is a very serious European alternative created by a Norwegian startup.

To avoid temptations, if you don't need one, don't visit their website or watch their videos, otherwise you may end up buying one, as we did. We love it but it's not cheap, as they only produce it in small quantities.

The reMarkable is an E Ink writing tablet designed for reading documents and textbooks, sketching, and taking notes. It's designed to feel like writing on paper.

What we like the most:

- you can read #ebooks or documents in various formats, including pdf. It's like a Kindle. And you can make notes in your ebooks, for example.

- it REALLY feels like you're writing and sketching on paper. It's impressively well done

- there are many of different templates you can use and download on the internet

- you can write notes by hand and convert them into digital text. It can even translate your handwritten text into another language

- you can also automatically save your files in the cloud and in your computer.

If you're interested, you can find more information on their website, which is full of useful tips.

Do you have any too? We'd love to know what you think!

The European search engines (and competitors) Ecosia and Qwant are joining forces to build their own European search index!

And the best part? It'll be open and available to all of us!

This is great news for other small search engines, start-ups and the AI industry, as they'll now have the chance to use this index instead of the ones offered by Microsoft and Google.

#Europe (and others) has zero reasons to buy #US #weapons systems anymore. The country's leadership is too unreliable and could turn them off remotely on a whim.

Stick to #European products.
