A reminder to all who may have Visa, AmEx, or Master Card gift cards now and in the future. Often you'll wind up with a small balance on them that doesn't make it worthwhile to make a purchase with it online or in a store. Something like US$1.60 or less.
Go to Wikipedia, Archive.org, your local animal shelter, or just about any worthwhile nonprofit and donate that odd amount on their web page.

1. block AI
2. Get rid of windows
3. stop using all google
4.Dump Android
5.Never vote for any politician that receives money from Israel
7. No Cable TV
8.rely on No western news sources
9.Turn off Hollywood
10. No radio
11. No newspapers
I don't care what Mickinsey says and to here their lies repeated on every medium over and over is a way to make a population insane.
Since western media is corrupt the Wikipedia gets filled with lies
Since corporation control almost all scientific research the NCBI is getting filled exclusively with useless or misleading scientific papers.
The only hopeful thing in the world currently is the fact that Russia has that new missile.
The entrenched elite in the US and Europe have demonstrated they are the most violent group of people on the planet and they listen to absolutely no one. Currently The only way to contain them is through military means. They have subverted the democracies in the west so much they are universally hated by their own populations.

A new release of Workbench is available.
As the release version indicates; it now uses the GNOME SDK 47.
Roland Lötscher added an action to create a new blank project.
Thanks to GSoC student Angelo Verlain (aka vixalien); we now have experimental TypeScript support. See their blog post for details.
What works
What's missing
It makes use of respective language servers. Only Blueprint and TypeScript have support so far.
The goal of Workbench has always been to be fully sandboxed to reduce the risk of running code that would harm the user or the system.
Over time and as the Library covered more and more desktop integration examples, we made exceptions for --share=network
(for HTTP/WebSocket) and --socket=pulseaudio
(for audio playback).
A new Library entry “Gamepad” by GSoC 2023 student José Hunter would have required us to add --device=all
. This would have been too risky; in particular for beginners.
I took the time to remove the problematic permissions and add a dialog that request user action when sandbox permissions are required
Thanks to Brage Fuglseth for the design.
If you are tempted to do this in your apps, please don't. This is a temporary measure until we get the appropriate Flatpak permissions or portals to handle these safely.
While imperfect, in the case of Workbench which targets beginners and can be used to execute any code; it is better than opening sandbox holes by default.
Before:
After:
GSoC student Bharat Tyagi added Language and Category filters to the Library
As usual, many improvements were made to the demos
7 new demos
3 demos ported to Python
7 demos ported to Rust
25 demos ported to Vala

An experimental port of Firefox Iceweasel is now available on HaikuDepot! So far, most sites are working fine. YouTube video playback is fine and Discord just works, however the web browser does occasionally take itself down. Still rather usable, though! If @ActionRetro thought that Haiku was ready for daily driving with Falkon (see first screenshot), then rebranded Firefox surely has to make it even more viable by those standards!
It should be noted though that just like with Falkon, some crash dialogs can be ignored (drag them to another workspace) and the web browser can still be used.

When I was done shopping at Target, I walked down to a grocery store in the same strip mall and somebody tapped me on the shoulder and asked where the tater tots were and I was thinking “again?!?” and I turned around and it was the same little old man and he said “gotcha!” and it remains one of my favorite interactions to date.

A reminder in these weird times: principles of adult behaviour, from the late John Perry Barlow (1977)
1. Be patient. No matter what.
2. Don’t badmouth: Assign responsibility, never blame. Say nothing behind another’s back you’d be unwilling to say, in exactly the same tone and language, to his face.
3. Never assume the motives of others are, to them, less noble than yours are to you.
4. Expand your sense of the possible.
5. Don’t trouble yourself with matters you truly cannot change.
6. Expect no more of anyone than you yourself can deliver.
7. Tolerate ambiguity.
8. Laugh at yourself frequently.
9. Concern yourself with what is right rather than whom is right.
10. Never forget that, no matter how certain, you might be wrong.
11. Give up blood sports.
12. Remember that your life belongs to others as well. Do not endanger it frivolously. And never endanger the life of another.
13. Never lie to anyone for any reason.
14. Learn the needs of those around you and respect them.
15. Avoid the pursuit of happiness. Seek to define your mission and pursue that.
16. Reduce your use of the first personal pronoun.
17. Praise at least as often as you disparage.
18. Never let your errors pass without admission.
19. Become less suspicious of joy.
20. Understand humility.
21. Forgive.
22. Foster dignity.
23. Live memorably.
24. Love yourself.
25. Endure.

From November 19-21 in Niamey, the capital of Niger there was a conference of critical importance. This Conference in Solidarity with the Peoples of the Sahel was hosted by the secretariat of Pan-Africanism Today and the West African People’s Organization. The conference called together trade unionists, grassroots activists, scholars, journalists, and all anti-imperialists who stand shoulder to shoulder with the Sahelian people and their Confederation of Sahel States. The theme of this conference was “anti-imperialist unity, peace, and friendship between peoples”. The importance of this conference cannot be overstated, especially given that such a conference led by West African hosts calling leading progressive forces of the world into dialogue has not happened since the 1980s. The conference was being streamed on Pan-African Television, and in the first live stream, one can notice a great many keffiyehs in the crowd. The first panel featured speakers from the Simon Bolivar Institute, the Socialist Party of Zambia, and the Revolutionary Organization for New Democracy.
The Confederation of Sahel States is currently advancing the revolutionary struggle in Africa by means of reclaiming sovereignty and moving forward with mass electrification projects, transportation links, and otherwise building their own indigenous productive forces. This reclamation of the productive forces from the colonial usurper is the first step in reclaiming national sovereignty. The question of land is the central axis around which sovereignty, national liberation, and anti-imperialism circumambulate. According to attendee Mikaela Erkog, “These military personnel are citizens who experience first hand the failures of the decision makers to serve and protect the people and advance a sovereign national interest”.
Burkina Faso, whose pre-coup government had lost more than 60% of their land to AQIM and other separatist forces, has regained over ¾ of their land back through their joint military actions with Niger and Mali. Mali, too, has reclaimed land from Western-backed separatist forces. Due to the growing relations between the Confederation and Russia, and largely because the US, Germany, and Italy have denied the French support for a military intervention, the French and Ukrainian security services have been attempting to foment internal dissent and counterrevolution through false flag attacks and violence.
The introductory remarks were made by Jonis Ghedi Alasow, a member of the Pan-Africanism Today secretariat. Laying out the purpose of the conference, Ghedis Alasow said:
Today, we are gathered here in Niamey to once more join hands with the people of Mali, Burkina Faso, and of course, Niger to give expression to our people’s resistance to the racist, colonial and imperialist degradation of our continent.
At the end of his speech, he read out a famous quote by the martyr Ghassan Kanafani about how every blow to imperialism serves the world revolution. Not only was this speech beautifully delivered but it also served to bring the movements for national liberation in West Africa and West Asia into conversation. Truly, there is no free Palestine without a liberated Africa, and vice versa. Again quoting Mikaela Erskog:
Whilst there was not a Palestinian organization participating, the ongoing genocide and historical resistance of the Palestinian people was discussed in several interventions. The meeting concluded with a political march to the Sankara monument, calling for a free Palestine.
The Nigerien leadership supported and participated in the conference, with PM Ali Lamine Zeine giving some opening remarks. General Tiani of the CNSP government was also in attendance. The main base of attendees, according to Erskog and others, was made up of the Nigerien working class–trade unionists, nurses, patriotic social organizations, religious groups, young and old, men and women. On the note of women’s participation, the conference took a strong step away from liberal feminism and individualist ideas of rights. Attendee and leader in the Revolutionary Organization for New Democracy, Ami Fameye Maiga, stated “We are fighting for the sovereignty and dignity of the people as a whole”. The torch of women’s participation in national liberation struggles was carried through this conference, emblazoned with passion and zeal.
The political imagination of the conference was one highlight, according to multiple attendees. The political tendencies ranged from patriotic nationalists to Marxist-Leninists, all in fruitful dialogue with the maintenance of the movement as their guide.
The diversity of political views of attendees provides strength and unity; rather than conferences on European or American political struggles which often devolve into debates and competitions around ideological purity. For Blaise Tulo of the West African People’s Organization, this was a historic conference, brought together at a historic moment because the peoples of the Sahel are “breaking the chains of neocolonialism…we are bold now, the youth of our continent are rising”. At the end of the conference the two convening organizations, WAPO and Pan-Africanism Today, released a statement called the Niamey Declaration. The focus of this declaration was both historical and contemporary. They began the statement by highlighting how 140 years ago, on November 15th, 1884 the imperialist powers met at the infamous Berlin Conference to slice up Africa along colonial lines. How far we have come in these last 140 years, where now it is the patriotic political forces in Niamey, Bamako, and Ouagadougou redrawing the map and expelling the French and American imperialists. A new dawn of Pan-Africanism is rising to meet the conditions of the 21st century, and the peoples of the Sahel are the tip of this spear. As those calling for the total liberation of Palestine, we must take the hands of our comrades in the Sahel and put an end to Zionism, imperialism, and capitalism which seek to destroy us and our planet.
The conclusion of the Niamey Declaration reads as follows:
We depart Niamey with a commitment to defend the advances the people have made in the Sahel and rally the international forces around the world to this aim.Long live patriotism, anti-imperialism, and Pan-Africanism! France and allies, withdraw!
