📺 Onside: Major League Soccer ⚽️
Monday, March 10, 2025
Recently finished Onside: Major League Soccer, the documentary series on TV+ about the past MLS season. It was a nice and refreshing view compared to team-specific documentaries I’ve seen in the football (⚽️) world, and I really enjoyed the variety of discovering different teams, personalities, and players! For someone like me, based in Europe, it was super useful to learn more about this league and its personalities. I wish more teams were covered, but I’m assuming that this would be the case if the show was to get renewed for another few seasons… MLS has definitely had the perception of being the “soon-to-be in the Top 5 of football leagues in the world” for 15 years now and we’re still waiting to see it happen, but at least the marketing has been good and the level of play has increased significantly.Finally a Connections: Sports Edition puzzle I could solve — and perfected it in one go!

Today in “America is not a serious country”: In this report about AI, they’re displaying the logos of differerent companies in the space, including France’s/Europe’s Le Chat from Mistral, however instead of the proper logo… they used the logo of a laundry detergent
Tough one today
What a great opener:
The world can no longer trust American tech. If that sounds dramatic, take a step back and consider the facts.
The United States is a nation in the thrall of authoritarianism, owned and operated almost completely by a far-right doomsday cult intent on betraying every alliance, every contract, every promise it has ever made (…) its decision-making is either erratic and illogical or dictated by interests that cannot and will not align with any reasonable principles of freedom, social progress, or ethical governance.

It is no longer safe to move our governments and societies to US clouds
Written down like this, it seems pretty bizarre, and that’s because it is. It’s also not easy to realize that our relationship with America is over after 80 years. It took time for me as well to accept that.
But it really is over. (…) The US has dismantled the official privacy framework. The deal is dead.
So stop surrendering our society to America. Have the courage to use different software and services. Even if it takes some getting used to.
Another day, another victory!

Absolutely stoked to read a story on my old neighborhood basketball court in the New York Times (by way of The Athletic)
I used to play about 1.5 to 2 hours there every Sunday mornings back when we used to live in Montmartre/Pigalle!
Unsurprising but insane god-complex coming out of… you guessed it, Silicon Valley:
Zayner wants to create the next generation of pets. “I think, as a human species, it’s kind of our moral prerogative to level up animals”

Absolute insanity from the US, unsurprisingly:
This executive order instructs federal employees of the federal government to ignore Supreme Court rulings and congressional actions if the President or Attorney General tell them to.
Tell me you’re trying to become a dictatorship without telling you’re trying to become a dictstorship.
