Pendant ce temps, la plus grande mafia du monde s'active toujours et encore...
L'ancien avocat de Jeffrey #Epstein, Alan #Dershowitz, exhorte désormais le président #Trump à gracier Ghislaine #Maxwell, qui a été reconnue coupable de trafic sexuel d' #enfants.
Dershowitz soutient qu'elle mérite une commutation de peine, affirmant que sa peine est plus sévère que ce qu'il estime que ses actes justifiaient. Il a également déclaré par le passé qu'il se considérait comme une victime, affirmant que sa vie était en danger en raison de son soutien déclaré à #Israël.
Greta Thunberg & Yasemin Acar interviewed by Al Jazeera aboard the #Madleen, a sailboat carrying humanitarian aid (food, medical supplies...) and 12 non-violent activists to #Gaza.
#GretaThunberg said : "And no matter how dangerous this mission is, it is nowhere near as dangerous as the silence of the entire world in the face of a livestreamed #genocide."

Ah yes, Meta being invasive to our privacy again while they have time and time again said to be committed to the privacy of their users.. How very much not surprising.
I think there is a major issue with the Russian based Yandex if they go in cohorts with Meta. But this is the reason I will not deal with yandex in any way when it comes to CSPTube’s sister site, Chat Safe Social. Epecially with translation services.
SUPER excited about this upcoming intimate conversation & panel discussion on the importance of #climate communication & bridging gaps between communities with one of our FAVOURITE climate communicators #KatharineHayhoe on JUNE 22 AT 6pm! #YYC
A secular and faith event that demonstrates cross community unity in climate change action. A presentation of sorts, followed by a small panel of faith leaders and climate representatives.
There will be copies of #SavingUs: A Climate Scientist's Hope and Healing in a Divided World" for sale at the event with a book signing by Dr. @katharinehayhoe.com! Come meet one of the world's most important voices on #Climate! #yyc

If I could, I would scream it into the world — but instead, I write it with shaking hands: RUSSIA STRUCK KHARKIV with 53 DRONES, 4 BOMBS & a MISSILE. It was the LARGEST & MOST RUTHLESS attack on the city since the war began. Three people were killed, 21 injured. THIS IS TERROR.
What's interesting about Western politics right now is that the more people #protest and resist, the more authoritarian governments become.
It's the only trick government have: silence dissent by arresting peaceful protesters and making laws to stop people saying things.
But this is only exposing the sham of Western free speech and democracy, and our leaders are only assisting this collapse in politics. The more they censor ideas, the more curious people get, the more people realise our governments serve corporations and colonialism over people.

TIL USB Type C management ICs have a "dead battery mode".
USB Power Delivery requires that the source and sink chat over the port's configuration channel to negotiate the voltage and power to deliver on VBUS. But that requires the downstream battery-powered device to be sufficiently on to run that negotiation.
IOW, if the battery powered device depletes its battery and the USB management IC loses power, when you plug a charger into the USB port, there's nobody there for the power source to talk to, electrically it looks like the cable isn't connected to anything. And so per the spec, the source provides none volts on VBUS in that condition. Your device really needs power, but it can't ask for power until it has power, and until then it looks to the charger like it's not even there.
You don't need to implement USB PD to be a USB device. Instead, you can place some resistors across a couple of the port's lines, which signals to the upstream device that yes, there is a device connected, and no, it doesn't support USB-PD negotiation and you should just supply the default 5V/3A on VBUS.
Dead battery mode is a trivial dead man's switch: the USB-PD management chip has an input signal, that it expects the local CPU/MCU to hold at logic high to show that it's alive. While the signal is high, the configuration channel lines are passed through to the processor, which handles the handshaking and negotiating.
But if that lifeline signal goes low, or the USB-PD chip itself loses power, then the configuration channel gets disconnected from the local CPU, and the standard "5V/3A please" signal resistors get connected instead. With that, the next time you plug the device in, it'll get the default 5V/3A, and can use that to boot up the USB-PD management silicon, flick the switch again to get control of the configuration channel, and do the negotiation to ask for more power.
Given how much the datasheets tout this feature, I presume it wasn't there in the first generation of USB-PD ICs, and that's how we got a rash of battery-powered devices that die unrecoverably if you let them discharge completely.
That also suggests a hacky fix for such devices, if you're brave enough to crack them open: locate the chips in charge of USB port management, figure out what power rails they're running off of (likely 3.3V), find a convenient test point or connector on that rail, and hook up an appropriate external power supply to the rail. Effectively you're giving the circuit board a jump-start, enough juice that the circuitry that manages USB-PD can start up, at which point it'll go "oh shit look at this power source that would like to send me power!", negotiate for whatever main supply rail it wants, and the rest of the board will boot and start recharging the battery.
Though hopefully now that it seems that most USB-PD management ICs have this integrated dead battery mode, the need to ever do that will go away.
I guess technically you could also do the jump-start through the USB port, you just have to violate the spec and blindly supply 5V/3A on VBUS even if the sense resistors aren't there. Just long enough for sense resistors and/or configuration channel traffic to show up, then you can go back to obeying the spec.
... Come to think of it I expect aliexpress has a little cottage industry of boards that let you do exactly that...
Two slight corrections: you can't ask for "standard 5V/3A", you only ask for 5V. The available current is advertised by the source with Rp (which has 3 options: either USB standard 100/150/500/900mA, 1.5A or 3A), the device does not ask for it.
Also, providing 5V on VBUS without Rd on CC does not violate the spec. USB-C sockets are not supposed to do that, but plugs can. Otherwise USB A to C cables would be illegal.

Friedrich #Merz reiste in die #USA, wollte sich als #Staatsmann präsentieren – doch #Trump ließ ihn regelrecht auflaufen.
Kaum #Sendezeit, keine Fragen von #Journalisten, stattdessen eine klare Botschaft: #BlackRock steht nicht über dem amerikanischen #Volk. Und Friedrich #Merz ist nicht der #Spieler, sondern die #Figur. Es war eine öffentliche #Machtdemonstration – verkleidet als diplomatisches Treffen. Eine Lektion in strategischer Kommunikation.

Tune out the blah blah. This right here is why the climate crisis continues unabated and why we will cross 2ºC Emissions MUST fall by 5.5% THIS year and EVERY year thereafter until 2030 if we are to stand a remote chance of staying below 2ºC - there is ABSOLUTELY no sign of this level of reduction.
Reminder from last year: "We find that the economic damages resulting from climate change until 2049 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙 𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙮 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙙 and that these greatly outweigh the costs required to mitigate emissions in line with the 2 °C target." [Emphasis mine] #ClimateCrisis
Analysis of projected sub-national damages from temperature and precipitation show an income reduction of 19% of the world economy within the next 26 years independent of future emission choices.

The Charlotte Lozier Institute study found almost 84% of emergency room visits from abortion pill complications were miscoded as due to miscarriage from 2016 to 2021.
Illinois lawmakers passed a measure allowing WHO guidelines to trump US safety rulings on abortion drugs, and radical pro-abortion Gov. Pritzker is expected sign it quickly.
They are telling us of their potential use of parliamentary supremacy AS THEY SEE FIT, hiding behind the #immigration issue to do so
We are getting dangerously close. Just remember that when they say they can make any law they want, they are #threatening us
Law for compulsory vaccination Law for compulsory purchase Law for compulsory quarantine Law for compulsory removal of gas meters
I could go on, but you get the picture
Never forget, they work for us. Laws are supposed to reflect our will. This is therefore where this superiority crap of theirs will slam into the political reality of governance by consent. Please please know how powerful that is. It is in fact our only tool to stop these diabolical shenanigans. Why do you think they work so hard to manufacture consent by spinning the narratives they do

Ein klares Versagen der Chefs vom Dienst: #Klima darf nur menschengemacht sein, weil dies die #Rechtfertigung der #Degrowth - #Politik ist.
Hintergrund: Man lasse sich folgendes Zitat von #Rahmstorf und #Schellnhuber auf der Zunge zergehen:
„Das insgesamt wichtigste #Treibhausgas ist der Wasserdampf. Er taucht in der obigen Diskussion nur deshalb nicht auf, weil der Mensch seine Konzentration nicht direkt verändern kann.“
Der #Wasserdampf (1% der Atmposphäre) hat also Glück gehabt, dass der Mensch nichts gegen ihn tun kann. Sonst würde er besteuert statt des Spurengases CO2 (0,04%). Auch Sonne, Vulkane und Meere dürfen keinesfalls etwas mit Klimaänderungen zu tun haben.
Nach Ende des #Impfzwangs und gleichauf mit Krieg ist #CO2 - #Ablasshandel schließlich das profitabelste Geschäft der Welt. Siehe hierzu meine neue Sendung
DIAGONOSE, PROGNOSE, THERAPIE Welche Faktoren sind für unser Klima verantwortlich, wie kommt es zum weltweiten Klimawandel und welche Gegenmaßnahmen müssen ergriffen werden?
Wahrscheinlich wird es wieder der wärmste Mai seit #Wetteraufzeichnung gewesen sein, was uns erneut ermahnt, endlich dem #Klimawandel den Garaus zu machen. Sie merken es, der #Sarkasmus bahnt sich schon seinen Weg. Auch #München hat sich jetzt dem #Klima-Taler-Netzwerk angeschlossen und wirbt für das Angebot, sich ein besseres #Gewissen #tracken zu lassen. Hören Sie Nicolas #Riedls Kommentar „Der #Klima-Köder“.

Within our present high-speed digital landscape, we see an irrefutable fixation with the lives of famous people. Including cinema launches and best-selling albums to candid interviews and digital shares, fans are always looking for extra facts about their favorite celebrities. Most commonly looked up themes are famous people’s backgrounds and their birth years. These pieces of information not only fulfill inquisitiveness but also allow admirers to form a stronger bond with the celebrities they idolize.
A famous person’s profile is beyond being a list of accomplishments. It’s a glimpse of someone’s life path and career trajectory. When readers look up a public figure’s biography, they’re not just seeking to know where someone was from or what roles they’ve played. They want to understand the struggles, key moments, and defining moments that influenced the human behind the spotlight. For instance, discovering Zendaya’s journey from Disney Channel star to renowned actress and fashion figure adds context and inspiration to her success. Her profile doesn’t just list her achievements, but her approach to reaching those goals.
Years of life is a commonly queried point, and not just for mere curiosity. It often functions as a source of empowerment. When someone observes a young actress Millie Bobby Brown making it big as a teenager, it offers hope to ambitious youth. On the other hand, watching seasoned stars like Keanu Reeves dominate major film roles well into middle age proves that creativity and ability persist over time. Looking up celebrity ages give insight into the timing of their career path, highlighting the phases of their fame and how they’ve developed through the years.
Celebrity age usually consist of a comprehensive variety of private and career-related information. They usually commence with the person’s full name, date of birth, and birthplace. Afterwards, fans regularly are interested in the public figure’s childhood, domestic life, and their initial entry into the field. As their work develops, key achievements such as famous roles, awards, commercial endeavors, and charitable activities are often noted. Many also appreciate details on a star’s private affairs, such as their romantic involvements, interests, and even quirky interests that add human dimension. These biographies commonly feature hidden tidbits or interesting details that engage readers and deepen a star’s persona.
In a age where fake news can propagate swiftly, the value of credible and confirmed celebrity bios cannot be undervalued. Reliable platforms like the IMDb database, Variety magazine, and updated Wikipedia pages are regularly the main points of reference for reliable details. Whether you’re writing for a blog, media portal, or dedicated community page, it’s essential to regularly update content to display the fresh and reliable data about a celebrity’s age, latest endeavors, or personal milestones. The showbiz world changes swiftly, and present hearsay can easily evolve into trending topics, making timely updates a important factor of maintaining trust with readers.
Specific public figures generate ongoing interest when it comes to their profiles. Singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, for example, commands interest for her music, private affairs, and financial intelligence. Followers are always interested to learn about her evolving reputation and occupational progress.
Hollywood star Timothée Chalamet has ignited buzz thanks to his artistic background and quick ascent in the film industry. Pop icon Rihanna’s journey from singer to businesswoman and parent offers a layered and captivating story. Thor star Chris Hemsworth’s transformation into a international blockbuster actor and his real-world persona also keep fans clicking on his fresh developments.
Ultimately, public figures are more than entertainment icons. Their biographies demonstrate determination, grit, and originality. Whether someone is noticing a famous figure for the beginning, or watching their evolution for years, a carefully crafted biography and accurate personal facts link between notoriety and authentic experience.
Readers want depth beyond news—they want stories, value, and a purpose to engage. By crafting material that expresses the soul of who these public figures really are, you not only satisfy interest but establish a strong bond between stars and the public.
Leute reden vom Staat, als wäre er ein Beschützer.
