Bundesverkehrsminister Patrick #Schnieder will den #Führerschein billiger machen und scheint außer Acht zu lassen, dass die Ausbildung schlechter würde. Das gefährdet Menschenleben - nicht nur die der neuen Autofahrer*innen, sondern alle anderen im Verkehr auch.

Sinnvolle Begleitmaßnahmen wären regelmäßige Prüfungen, wirksame Bußgelder und sinnvolle Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen. Und Gefährder*innen müssen schneller erkannt und vom Steuer entfernt werden.

ich denke, dass es grundsätzlich ein angemessener Preis ist, der für dieses Privileg aufgerufen wird. Es müsste eben nur die Alternative des ÖPNV existieren, um das argumentativ auch so verkaufen zu können. Ergo: Energie in den ÖPNV stecken und die Führerscheinkosten dem Markt überlassen. Firmen werden das für ihre Mitarbeiter schon Mengenrabatt rausholen bzw. Vergünstigung bei Dienst in THW, Bw, Katastrophenschutz, Pflegeheim etc.

SYRIE. Les Kurdes d’Alep massacrés et assiégés de toutes parts

This is a really terrible choice financially, but it's also very tempting. People say the token generation is really slow, but maybe slow is better than nothing. I want to be able to run the 100-200b models.

@Sobohs is listed for multiple days now as the Palestinian who received the least support of all 100+ families in #GazaVerified.

If you're not struggling to pay rent yourself, then you have $10 to spare. Please, find that humanity in you.

And no, saving up for a Nintendo Switch for your child or your next summer vacation aren't excuses I consider valid for not donating to genocide victims. Come on, $10.

It's exactly one year since the Mastodon HOA caused me a mental breakdown by verbally attacking me and falsely accusing me of scraping data into a database (which I didn't do, it was just a single index.html file using a public, existing mastodon.social API). That incident led to the shutdown of Fedi On Fire, a fun project I had. In their eyes I will forever be a "Techbro Asshole".

> This effort took inspiration from FireSky, a Bluesky project designed to show public statuses in an IRC-like layout happening in real-time. In Roni's own words, his effort was to showcase how beautifully diverse the Fediverse can be.

in reply to Lety Does Stuff

@lety Thank you for the support. My next step would have been to explore the fedi.buzz API and the possibilities of combining several public Fediverse APIs. Emelia Smith, who has worked on moderation and trust & safety tools for the Fediverse, kindly helped me improve auto-deletion and similar features, so I thought it was okay to do something like this. But I guess not. It seems that public posts cannot be used publicly in any way, according to the Fediverse Police / HOA forces. Still after this time I'm a bit sad about everything that happened.

JD Vance a déclaré à propos de Renée Nicole Good, 37 ans, mère de trois enfants, exécutée par l’ICE :

« Elle est victime de l’idéologie de gauche. Quelle jeune mère décide de jeter sa voiture devant des agents de l’ICE qui appliquent la loi ? Il faut avoir subi un lavage de cerveau pour en arriver là. »

Voilà l’aveu.

Quand une femme paniquée, qui n’a menacé personne et n’a mis en danger la vie de personne, est abattue, la réponse politique n’est ni une enquête, ni des excuses, ni une remise en question.
Selon Vance, tout s’explique par “l’idéologie de gauche” et un prétendu “lavage de cerveau”.

On passe d’une exécution filmée à l’accusation politique de l’opposition.
C’est la logique de la violence d’État légitimée :
• la faute n’est jamais à ceux qui tirent,
• elle est toujours à ceux qui paniquent.

Ne nous trompons pas.
Ce modèle existe déjà en France et ailleurs au nom de ……

La différence, c’est que demain, avec la droite au pouvoir, ce ne sera plus un dérapage mais une norme assumée.
Tirer. Justifier. Accuser les victimes.
Et le faire au nom de l’État, sans complexe.
