Was eine Aufhebung der US-Sanktionen für Syrien bedeuten könnte
Die Aufhebung der US-Sanktionen gegen Syrien versetzt Investoren in Aufregung. Sie versprechen sich gute Geschäfte. Experten fürchten jedoch, es werde dauern, bis ein solcher Schritt das Leben der Syrer merklich verbessert.
Yesterday I visited the UNESCO site “Gamzigrad-Romuliana, Palace of Galerius”. It is near the settlement of Gamzigrad in Serbia, near the border with Bulgaria. Felix Romuliana is an imperial Roman palace, they only figured out its name in 1984.
It was built on the site of a previous fort around 300, and only went about 150 years before being plundered by the Huns.
The towers and walls seem to have been reconstructed from debris in modern times, as far as I could tell from the info at the site.
In the unlikely chance anyone decides to go see this site, it is absolutely in the “rent a car” mode of travel, not public transit. But my license is expired, and I have some free time, so the basic route is to fly into Belgrade and take the train to Niš, or fly into Niš, then take a three hour train to Zaječar. Which has some quite scenic parts as it runs up a steep canyon.
From Zaječar there is no transit to the site. I asked my hotel contact if he knew a taxi that used WhatsApp (locals use…
Viber, which won’t accept my phone number). Instead he booked me a taxi to the site which left me stranded there. I ended up standing under a tree outside for most of an hour hoping that someone else would come in a taxi, but ended up finding a taxi co. that could answer the phone in English through Google Voice for 33¢/min. (Žuti taxi, +381 66 415577)
That saved me the 2.5 hour walk back, which was fortunate because I hadn’t put on sun block and my Achilles tendon was already griping all day.

💸 How I Got a Free $10 in 5 Minutes with SoFi (No Deposit, No Catch)
I’ve tried a lot of “free money” tricks online, and most of them are either scams, take forever, or ask for a deposit you never get back. But this one? It actually worked — and it’s completely free.
🏦 SoFi’s Free Credit Monitoring Bonus
SoFi (yeah, the finance app) is offering 1,000 rewards points — equal to $10 — just for signing up and enabling free credit monitoring. You don’t need to deposit or spend a dime.
Here’s exactly how I did it:
✅ Step-by-Step: How to Get the Free $10
Sign up for SoFi using a referral (you’ll get a bonus for other stuff later too).
sofi.com/invite/relay?gcp=8b4e…
Once your account is made, go to the dashboard and turn on free credit score monitoring (it takes 30 seconds).
After enabling it, tap your profile icon in the top-left.
Go to “Memberships & Rewards.”
You’ll see 1,000 SoFi Points sitting there waiting for you.
Redeem those points for $10 cash directly to your SoFi account — no waiting, no games.
💰 Why It’s Worth It
No deposit required
No impact on your credit
Points show up instantly
Redeemable for real money
I’ve done this myself and cashed out within 5 minutes. It’s a simple trick SoFi is using to get more users — and you get paid for helping them.

EU governments are pushing to set up deportation camps in non-EU countries — and to do so in a way that avoids judicial scrutiny.
These so-called “return hubs” would hold people who have received a final deportation order, even if they cannot be sent to their country of origin.

As repeatedly demonstrated, corporate platforms are vulnerable. Will you be ready when they inevitably bend to data exploitation, political manipulation and censorship? Has it already started?

O Paquistão usou 100% de armas chinesas e transformou em sucata cinco dos melhores aviões de guerra ocidentais e russos da Índia.
Eles voaram com Rafales franceses, drones israelenses, MiGs russos e mísseis SCALP... e nenhum deles conseguiu voltar para casa. Zero.
Primeiro abate de um Rafale? Cortesia de Pequim. Espero que a Dassault tenha mandado flores.
As ações da Dassault caíram, os investidores ocidentais entraram em pânico e as ações de defesa chinesas dispararam 18% em um dia. Aparentemente, os jatos chineses baratos podem realmente ser mais poderosos do que um bird da OTAN de US$ 100 milhões. Quem sabia? A China sabia😄
Enquanto isso, em Tel Aviv: modo de pânico existencial ativado (quando é que isso nunca aconteceu?)
A mídia israelense está "oficialmente preocupada" porque adivinhe quem também possui esses mesmos sistemas de defesa chineses? O Egito.
Sim, o mesmo Egito que acabou de voar com JF-17s chineses sobre as pirâmides em exercícios conjuntos com a China. Mazel Tov😉.
O que acabou de acontecer não foi uma briga regional. Foi um anúncio global: A tecnologia militar ocidental não é intocável. E Israel? Talvez pare de se preocupar com as armas nucleares do Irã e comece a se preocupar com os mísseis chineses estacionados na porta ao lado? Ou talvez não se preocupe... para que possamos ter uma surpresa agradável de vez em quando?
Bem-vindo à nova era.
Impulsionada pela China. Com o pânico do Ocidente.

A imagem mostra duas bandeiras cruzadas, uma da Índia e outra do Paquistão, contra um fundo escuro. A bandeira da Índia tem três faixas horizontais: saffron (laranja) na parte superior, branca no meio e verde na parte inferior, com um Ashoka Chakra (roda azul) no centro da faixa branca. A bandeira do Paquistão tem duas faixas verticais: branca na parte de trás e verde na frente, com uma lua crescente e uma estrela branca no centro da faixa verde. Entre as bandeiras, há uma barreira de arame farpado, simbolizando uma fronteira ou conflito entre os dois países.
