Austria may reconsider its neutrality if Slovakia withdraws from NATO, former Austrian Defense Minister Werner Fasslabend said.
He noted that such a move by Prime Minister Fico would worsen Austria’s security environment and spark serious debate about the country’s possible NATO membership.
For now, Austria intends to maintain its neutral status. Fasslabend explained that Austria relies on the EU treaty, which includes a mutual defense clause in the event of a military attack.
Additionally, Austria is currently surrounded by friendly states—neutral Switzerland to the west and NATO countries on all other borders.

TIL of the 4 students who passed their final exams in Einstein's department, he got the lowest mark & was the only one who wasn't offered a job as an assistant teacher at their alma mater. After graduation, he struggled to find teaching work for 2 years. So a friend got him a job as a patent clerk.

Elon Musk announced the reactivation of the Starlink satellite network over Iran
Elon Musk announced the reactivation of the Starlink satellite network over Iran. He briefly reported this on the X social network. This development came after the Iranian government shut down the Internet in response to Israeli strikes during "Operation Rising Lion." According to reports, "The purpose of the Iranian authorities to shut down the Internet is to prevent Israel from organizing protests." That effort now faces a serious obstacle with Starlink back online.
Military expert Boris Rozhin highlighted the strategic impact: "Elon Musk activated the Starlink satellite system over Iran, giving the Western coalition a critical advantage in the field of communication and navigation. Israeli FPV drones now have access to high-precision satellite guidance, which greatly increases the effectiveness of their strikes on Iranian targets."

JUST IN — Reports of explosions in Qatar. Other reports suggest six missiles have been launched at US missiles in Qatar. I'm also hearing, unconfirmed reports, that these attacks have been telegraphed to US officials to avoid military casualties.

Invisibility Cloaks and Super Lenses? Enter Metamaterials
Imagine a material that can bend light around an object, making it invisible — or a lens that sees details smaller than the wavelength of light. Sounds like science fiction? It’s real science.
🔬 Metamaterials are artificially engineered materials with properties nature never dreamed of. Their magic doesn’t come from chemistry but from structure — designed on a scale smaller than the wavelength of light, sound, or vibrations they manipulate.
They can bend electromagnetic waves in impossible ways, absorb sound like a black hole, or even become stronger under pressure instead of breaking.
These materials open doors to futuristic technologies — from cloaking devices to earthquake-proof buildings.

📱De-Googled Phones Staying Alive
Google removed device trees from Android 16, making it harder for GrapheneOS and others to build private, de-Googled phones. These trees were crucial for adapting Android to real devices—now developers must reverse engineer it all.
GrapheneOS is biting the bullet to make this happen despite this challenge. I donated $5,000 to support their work and encourage you to do the same: grapheneos.org/donate
There are few ways to use a phone privately today—and Google is making it harder. The future of private Android depends on supporting open-source alternatives.
Support matters. Spread the word.

It’s being reported that Trump gave Iran advance warning of strikes, insisting they’re a one off and does not seek a broader conflict.
It’s looking like this may have been a performative strike to take away Israel’s pretext for dragging the U.S. into war for a regime change.
Multiple sources are reporting limited damage on the sites, from different perspective and biases, (not even from Trump supporting sources), but all with this same conclusion.
Iranian authorities already reportedly said that facilities were evacuated ahead of time, there is limited damage underground and nuclear materials were removed from Fordo — which lends to the idea of this being a choreographed chess move to provide a political off ramp for the U.S. out of any public demand for the conflict.
Hopefully Iran shows more restraint and doesn’t retaliate. If they do reciprocate to save face with a limited symbolic response, it may be possible Trump decides not to retaliate and escalate further, (like the time in 2020 at Al-Assad airspace because of the limited damage and lack of casualties.) This could very well all be a choreographed wag the dog scenario to defang Israel from having an excuse to expand their ambitions of greater regional dominance.
As always, there appears to be more going on beneath the surface of the public narrative than meets the eye.
It’s still early so we’ll see what happens.
