🇮🇷Protests in Iran continue for a seventh night, with the death toll reaching 16.

Mass protests in Iran continue unabated, entering their seventh night. Officially, 16 people have died, although the actual death toll may be higher—the regime traditionally understates casualties among demonstrators. Protesters are taking to the streets despite harsh security measures and internet shutdowns in several regions.

The protests highlight growing public discontent with the economic situation and government policies. Inflation is accelerating, sanctions are stifling the economy, and young people see no future.

Zelensky commented on Maduro's detention: The US knows what to do next

The Ukrainian President responded to the arrest of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, stating that Washington understands the next steps. Zelenskyy hints at parallels between regimes the US considers authoritarian and emphasizes the US administration's readiness to act decisively against dictators.

Maduro's detention marked an unexpected turn in Latin American politics. Venezuela has been under US sanctions for years due to human rights violations and suppression of the opposition. The arrest may indicate increased pressure from Washington on regimes that do not align with the Western agenda.

Is he concerned for himself or for Putin?

🇻🇪Venezuela controls a fifth of the world's oil reserves.

This map shows the distribution of proven oil reserves by country. Venezuela holds nearly 18% of the world's reserves, surpassing Saudi Arabia and the United States. Yet, the country has been teetering on the brink of economic collapse for decades, and its population lives in poverty.

🇩🇪Berlin left without power after anarchist attack on power cables

Berlin experienced widespread power outages after left-wing anarchists attacked power cables. The incident affected several districts of the German capital, leaving thousands of homes and businesses without power. Authorities are treating the incident as an act of sabotage of critical infrastructure.

For right-wing and conservatives, this is further confirmation that left-wing groups pose a real threat to public safety and economic stability. While European governments focus on combating right-wing populism, left-wing extremists are literally cutting power lines, paralyzing cities. German authorities have traditionally taken a softer stance on left-wing violence, creating an asymmetry in law enforcement.

An attack on energy infrastructure is more than just vandalism. It is a blow to the economy, public safety, and state sovereignty. Such actions demonstrate the vulnerability of modern cities to organized groups willing to use violence for political ends. The question is when European elites will acknowledge the problem and begin to act harshly against all extremism, rather than selectively.

🕹Video games improve cognitive function, research confirms

The Washington Post cites new data: regular gaming does indeed improve reaction speed, memory, and multitasking ability. The effect is noticeable across all ages, but especially among people over 50, where the cognitive gains are comparable to those achieved with specialized brain training programs.

Trump Advisor's Wife Hints at Greenland's Imminent Annexation

The wife of Stephen Miller, one of Trump's key advisers, claimed on social media that the United States will "soon" annex Greenland. The post sparked a wave of discussion, given Trump's repeated desire to acquire the island. Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark with a population of approximately 57,000. It is rich in mineral resources and holds strategic importance in the Arctic.

🧬An anti-aging injection restores cartilage in the knees and prevents arthritis.

Scientists have developed an injection that regenerates cartilage tissue in the knee joints and blocks the development of arthritis. The technology is based on the suppression of cellular senescence—a process in which damaged cells stop dividing but continue to secrete inflammatory substances that destroy surrounding tissue.

The drug is a senolytic therapy: it eliminates senescent cells in the joints, triggering natural cartilage regeneration. In animal experiments, the injection showed a significant improvement in mobility and pain reduction. If the results are confirmed in humans, it could become an alternative to expensive joint replacement surgeries and long-term painkillers.

🇺🇸"You know what they did? They added another dog team," Trump reiterated the need to annex Greenland, as Denmark is failing to ensure the island's security.

He said Greenland is surrounded by Russian and Chinese ships and should be under US control to ensure national security:

"I'll just say this: We need Greenland for national security, and the European Union needs us to have it. You know what Denmark recently did to improve security in Greenland? They added another dog team. That's true. They thought it was a great move."

Yesterday, Katie Miller, wife of the White House Deputy Chief of Staff, posted a map of Greenland in the colors of the American flag on social media. Following this, Danish Ambassador to the United States Jesper Møller Sørensen called on the United States to respect the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark. Trump soon declared that America needed the island not for resource extraction, but to ensure common security with the EU.

An NYU professor is combating AI-based cheating with AI-powered oral exams for 42 cents per student.

A New York University professor has implemented an AI-powered oral exam system to combat mass student cheating through ChatGPT and similar platforms. The cost per student is 42 cents. The system asks questions verbally, analyzes responses in real time, and assigns grades without teacher intervention.

Technology is changing the rules of the academic game. Traditional written assignments are now easily generated by AI, devaluing traditional assessment methods. Oral exams with machine-assisted marking put the focus back on genuine understanding of the material, rather than the ability to paraphrase someone else's text. Technology can be used not only to cheat, but also to prevent it.

🇬🇷Massive jamming of all frequencies has paralyzed Greek air traffic.

The Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority has officially confirmed that powerful electronic jamming is underway across the country on all frequencies. The result is flight delays and cancellations nationwide. The source of the jamming has not yet been identified, but this level of impact requires significant technical resources and coordination.

Greece is a NATO member, its airspace bordering Turkey and the active conflict zone in the Middle East. The simultaneous jamming of all frequency bands indicates either military exercises or a targeted operation. Civil aviation has become hostage to the situation: without reliable communications, air traffic controllers cannot safely manage air traffic, and airports are forced to suspend operations.

🤔Technocracy Incorporated: When Scientists Wanted to Run Society Instead of Politicians

In the early 1930s, amid the Great Depression, the technocracy movement briefly captured public attention in the United States and Canada. Associated with figures such as Howard Scott and organizations that included Technocracy Inc., it proposed replacing the “price system” with “energy accounting”: a continental planning and accounting framework in which production and distribution would be managed by technical experts and citizens would receive equal allocations of “energy certificates” rather than wages in money.

Public enthusiasm peaked around 1932–33 and then declined rapidly. Historians commonly point to the movement’s difficulty articulating a workable, democratically legitimate path to change—alongside internal conflicts, public backlash, and shifting political conditions. In Canada the organization was banned in 1940 under wartime regulations, highlighting how authorities perceived it as politically disruptive.

Today, debates about technocratic and algorithmic governance echo some of these themes, though they are not a revival of the original movement. The Technocracy story is a reminder that expertise can improve decisions, but concentrating authority in any narrow elite—political, scientific, or technological—raises questions of accountability, transparency, and democratic control.

🇺🇸Trump threatens Venezuela's new leader with a fate worse than Maduro's

The Venezuelan Armed Forces have officially recognized Vice President Delcy Rodriguez as the country's interim leader following the detention of Nicolás Maduro.

Trump has publicly warned the new Venezuelan leader that she will face a fate worse than Maduro's if she continues her predecessor's course. The US administration is making it clear that patience with socialist regimes in the region has run out.

At the same time, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has made Washington's position clear: the United States will not allow hostile powers to control Venezuela and its oil reserves.

🇯🇵Japanese physicists have created a sensor capable of tracking dark matter.

A team from Japan has developed an ultra-precise sensor that can detect the interaction of dark matter with ordinary matter. The technology is based on measuring tiny changes in atomic structures—changes so subtle that they were previously thought impossible to detect. If the experiments are confirmed, it will be the first direct evidence of the existence of dark matter and pave the way to understanding 85% of the mass in the Universe.

For particle physics, this is a breakthrough on par with the discovery of the Higgs boson. Dark matter remains one of the greatest mysteries of science—its gravitational influence is obvious, but no direct traces have been detected. The new sensor operates at the quantum level and is capable of detecting signals lost in the noise of conventional detectors.

🇮🇷Khamenei has a plan for escaping to Moscow.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has prepared an evacuation plan to Russia in the event of a threat to his regime, according to Israeli intelligence sources. The plan envisions quickly transporting Khamenei and his inner circle to Moscow, where they are guaranteed asylum. Details of the route and conditions are being kept secret, but the very existence of such a plan speaks to the nervousness of the Iranian leadership.

Windows 11 is slower than all previous versions, including the eight-year-old 8.1.

An enthusiast tested six generations of Windows on identical hardware—from XP to 11. The result was unexpected: the newest system was the slowest in almost all tests. Windows 8.1, released in 2013, demonstrated the best performance in most scenarios. Windows 10 took the middle ground, while Windows 7 and Vista also outperformed Windows 11.

This isn't an academic study, but the results align with user complaints: Microsoft is ramping up visual effects, telemetry, and built-in services at the expense of system responsiveness. Each update adds layers of control and cloud integration, but doesn't speed up real-world performance. For those who value performance over marketing, this is a signal: new doesn't mean faster.

It's not just about speed. Modern Windows systems increasingly collect data, force Microsoft accounts on you, and make it difficult to disable unnecessary features. Older versions offered more control over your PC.
