Hello #fediverse! Thanks to my new DFF grant, I'm now looking to hire a PhD student to join me at AAU in Aalborg 🇩🇰 to work on "usable decentralization", i.e. on making distributed and federated cloud services accessible to the everyday user. For more details, see link below, and please don't hesitate to DM me with questions!

The U.S. president is animated less by the prospect of deal-making than by the need for domination, less by the spirit of exchange than by the perverse pleasure of exalting himself. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/02/03/world/appeasing-trump-only-invites-betrayal/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #us #donaldtrump #greenland #europe #nato #denmark #usdenmarkrelations #defense #trade

U.S. President Donald Trump’s vows to take over Greenland have chilled relationships between American and Greenlandic researchers, halting some projects and making future collaborations uncertain. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2026/02/02/climate-change/trump-greenland-climate-change/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #climatechange #us #donaldtrump #republicans #greenland #denmark #climatechange #environment

#LYDSYN from #Denmark:
Uffe Lorenzen (Lorenzo Woodrose) of Baby Woodrose, On Trial and Spids Nøgenhat fame has formed a classic powertrio including his old friends Palle Demant (The Sledge) on bass and Jens Eyde on drums. The band was originally formed out of boredom due to Covid 19 lockdown and was meant as a backing band that would make it possible for Uffe Lorenzen to play songs from his recent solo albums live. As several tours went down the drain and was postponed also due to Covid 19 the band kept on rehearsing and ended up making their own material.
