Les non-dits économiques et sociaux du débat sur la fin de vie - Fondapol
#politique #servicepublic #santé #euthanasie #eugénisme
Oh. Pu. Tain. De. Bor. Del. De. Mer. De.
Le projet de loi sur l’accompagnement des malades et de la fin de vie, proposant de légaliser le suicide assisté et l’euthanasie, s’inscrit dans une logique inédite. L’étude d’impact de ce texte n’a pas pris en considération les implications sociales de ces nouvelles pratiques dans notre société.Or, les exemples observés au Canada et dans l’Oregon font apparaître que les personnes seules ou défavorisées sont surreprésentées parmi les populations ayant recours au suicide assisté. De plus, on voit désormais circuler, à bas bruit mais aussi explicitement, l’idée que le développement de la mort provoquée pourrait être une source d’économies.

Fellow #Fosstodon people, where did you migrate to?
It's quite sad to lose the history of content in the process, but I'd like to at least be sure that our new home will stay online for the years to come, and for it to be a relatively "mainstream" safe space for FOSS people.
Honestly, I am considering self-hosting with gotosocial, as that allows to at least take some of the content with you: fosstodon.org/@linmob/11462152…
Sadly it will take me a bit, as we're moving this month, I will be working overtime as a colleague is on holidays and there's more crap to deal with.

‘Nobody wants a robot to read them a story!’ The creatives and academics rejecting AI – at work and at home
Is artificial intelligence coming for everyone’s jobs? Not if this lot have anything to do with itEmine Saner (The Guardian)
When an artist uses materials with text on them to create a collage, it's natural to assume that they chose the materials in part for the meaning of the text they include. Papier-mâché, on the other hand, uses paper (usually newsprint) simply for its physical properties. The text is incidental.
I use this metaphor to highlight, yet again, that LLMs don't work with the meaning of the text they process & extrude -- just the form.

The new mission includes the renowned Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, who speaks with Democracy Now! live from the Madleen."

Because they can. Because we authors let them get away with that. No other store does this.

@bifouba Die Aussagen von der Bundesregierung sind wirklich nur noch Gaslighting.
Ich freue mich aber, dass innerhalb der Linkspartei langsam der Wind dreht. Dass sie jetzt die JDA statt die IHRA nehmen und dass nun eben Menschen wie Köktürk im Bundestag sitzen, ist eine gute Entwicklung.
Meinem Eindruck nach liegt das vor allem auch an den jungen Leuten, die neu in der Partei sind und inzwischen so große Mehrheiten bilden, dass sie die Antdeutschen (und die Reformer) überstimmen können.
Looking at some clothing in the archives today. Here's a jumpsuit worn by Thalia Campbell on the 1981 march from Wales to Greenham Common in protest at proposal to site cruise missiles at the US army base. She dyed it purple, inspired by the colours of the women's suffrage movement.
And here's peace activist and CND campaigner Pat Arrowsmith's jacket. It was her father's Civil Defence warden's jacket which Pat wore in the 50's and 60's, and has attached a peace badge to it.
Pat, ineligible to inherit her father's money unless she was married to a man (she was a lesbian), married an anarchist poet for one day to qualify for the inheritance, then had the marriage annulled and donated the money to Sappho and Gay Pride Week 1979.

#Palestine / Israeli [defense] exports surge 13% to $14.8 billion despite Gaza genocide impact
Israel's defense exports jumped over 13% in 2024 to $14.8 billion, even as overall Israeli exports contracted 5.6%. The defense sector now represents nearly 25% of Israel's goods exports and approaching 10% of total exports.
Europe became the dominant market, accounting for 54% of defense exports (up from 35% in 2023) as countries increased military spending amid the Ukraine war. Air defense systems, missiles and rockets comprised 48% of exports, with Israeli technology proving effective against drone and missile threats.
However, industry sources report that images from #Gaza are complicating deal closures. #Spain recently froze a nearly $300 million Spike missile deal due to the situation in Gaza. Defense companies face parliamentary opposition in European countries and competitors using the Gaza war to discourage purchases of Israeli systems.
Sales to Abraham Accords countries reached $1.8 billion (12% of total exports), while Asian exports dropped from $6.3 billion to $3.4 billion due to major 2023 deals with India and Azerbaijan not repeating.

Houthi attacks are forcing major operational changes:
[...] He [Colonel (Res.) Yair Kulas, head of SIBAT - the Defense Export and Defense Cooperation Directorate at Israel's Ministry of Defense] also referred to supply chain challenges: 'The supply chain is challenging due to shipping routes that have been changed under the Houthi threat, Ben Gurion Airport which has been blocked at times due to missile launches. So if we need to be more flexible, we are being flexible. And if there is a demand from the purchasing country for local production on its territory, we establish manufacturing activity there.'"
Hebrew ynet.co.il/economy/article/syi…
While Israeli defense companies acknowledge supply chain challenges from Houthi attacks on shipping routes Operation Prosperity Guardian , European naval missions provided free security for Israeli exports. Rather than diverting resources to Red Sea security, Israel can maintain focus on high-value defense production for the European market surge. While European militaries absorb the costs and risks of confronting Houthis and Israeli arms companies profit from the resulting demand.

Just to be clear, when I say that Fedora is the new Ubuntu, I mean that Fedora now occupies the place that Ubuntu used to have in terms of Linux distributions. It's a GOOD thing.
One of the things I really enjoy about using Fedora, is that they push the Linux desktop towards the future. Some call it bleeding edge, but it's not. It's cutting edge: you don't get the absolute latest, but you get the best that's also stable.
Fedora was among the first to adopt Wayland, the first to adopt Pipewire, to push Flatpak, portals, the first mainstream distro to push immutable filesystems in Fedora Silverblue.
This drive towards modern tech was what Ubuntu was doing back in the day: they were implementing the latest versions of GNOME, adopted newly developed programs at the time, like Banshee, or F-Spot, they pushed to have better driver integration, and more software available.
Using Fedora, I got that same excitement I used to get when I was using Ubuntu: every 6 months, there's a new drop of amazing updates. You get more modern technologies, you get improved security, you get new features right as they're being released, and you get that sense of really taking advantage of all that new stuff the Linux community talks about.
Fedora is a "current" distro, which means that you get the latest release of all the interesting stuff, like the desktop environments, the linux kernel, the graphics drivers, or wayland. And they do this without sacrificing stability.
Fedora, in my experience with it, has been rock solid. In general, I didn't have many problems with any Linux distro that I daily drove, but all of them tended to exhibit small issues after a while.
My experience with Fedora has been fantastic thanks to this: Flatpak is wonderfully integrated in the GNOME Software app, it's all a one click install, all updates are handled there, I just never think about my system anymore, I just use it. That peace of mind is something I never truly achieved with any other Linux distro
Another thing I really like is that Fedora has the DEFAULT experience. They ship the desktop as is, without any meaningful extensions, themes, configurations, or tweaks.
It's just productivity central. GNOME, for me, doesn't need anything else than the default experience. It is extremely efficient once you wrap your head around how it works, and providing me with a crutch, like an always visible dock, or desktop icons, would just compromise that productivity.
Moving to Fedora also had me learn a few things, especially how to use dnf. I didn't need to use it, but I wanted to; and since I was a lot more familiar with APT, I had no idea what I was doing.
Turns out, Fedora has a huge community as well, something Ubuntu has had since it began, so it's another checkmark next to my "Fedora is the next Ubuntu" checklist

Une évaluation des mois passés par Trump à la Maison Blanche par un éminent commentateur de CNN.
Stephen Collinson a déclaré :
Au cours de ses quatre mois à la Maison Blanche, Trump s’est livré à des menaces de droits de douane, à des déclarations sur son désir d’annexer le Canada et le Groenland et à la destruction de programmes humanitaires dans le monde entier.
Le résultat, selon lui, est :
« À l'heure actuelle, les dirigeants chinois, russes, israéliens, européens et canadiens ont constaté que Trump n'est plus aussi puissant qu'ils le pensent. Ils en concluent donc qu'il est possible de lui désobéir sans conséquences. » (E)
Seuls les Arabes prennent au sérieux ses bêtises quotidiennes, achètent ses faveurs et lui offrent des concessions, tout en soulignant nécessairement leur rejet de son plan de déplacement de Gaza, mais sans prendre de positions qui contrecarreraient son potentiel ultérieur.
Were the covid gene therapy injections selectively targeted at people of a non-Indian heritage? If you look at Mark Crispin Millers posts I don't recall seeing many Indians there. Could be wrong but majority by far of fatalities were people of European or African descent.
Have additionally been trying to understand for quite some time why I was being nagged via text messages during covidhoax to update my 'ethnicity' with my local general practitioners office. I got about six messages telling me to do so all of which I ignored. It was a high priority item for them for reasons I still don't quite understand.
There was also the paper that came out of India indicating that the novelty flu pathogen selectively biased certain 'ethnicities' toward poorer outcomes. Europeans and Africans came off worst I believe. RFKjr mentioned this paper which was reported on widely and immediately became controversial - so it was obviously meant to be seen by as many as possible.
Novelty pathogen with ethnicity bias coupled with novelty injections with an ethnicity bias. Would be so easy to conflate the two and thereby validate the conclusion of that paper from India.
And while all this was happening Africans and Europeans across the west were supposed be engaged in a terrible 'race war' thanks to Pierre Kory thereby depleting their ranks, assets and resources etc. Indians were fully exempt from this supposed whacky racer war aside from helping to stir it all up.
The timing of it all matches perfectly with the progression of the corona hoax. I actually think this very plausibly was the original plan which didn't meet expectations by quite some wide margin. Left everyone puzzled and confused more than anything else which was then followed by an awkward pause like it was now fully off-script so no one was really sure what to do next.
Then Ukraine happened and like right out of nowhere AI became the newest current thing. It just blew up exactly as you'd expect if someone had been sitting on it waiting for exactly the right moment.
It was going to change everything then didn't except get everyone talking about it. Perhaps the controllers of the corona hoax were a little too overconfident into its potential as a labor saving gimmick. Now we find out that a big AI project being run out of India was a giant hoax. So that stymied the AI takeover.
Current scorecard looks something like this.
Novelty pathogen takeover = failed
Novelty injection takeover = failed
vaxpass/digital id takeover = failed
Whacky racer takeover = failed
AI takeover = failed
US government takeover = succeeded (for now)

@FediThing Might be. There's certainly some research that might support that.
The writers of the paper argue that because lower-income groups are more exposed to the impacts of environmental degradation. More volatile weather and pollution have a material impact on their lives in ways that the richer classes do not experience.
IMO, it probably a mix of both and other factors and incentives (i.e. the rich are more likely to fall for propaganda about ethical and pro-environmental consumption)
"a novel tracking method by Meta and Yandex potentially affecting billions of Android users. We found that native Android apps—including Facebook, Instagram, and several Yandex apps including Maps and Browser—silently listen on fixed local ports for tracking purposes.
These native Android apps receive browsers' metadata, cookies and commands from the Meta Pixel and Yandex Metrica scripts embedded on thousands of web sites. These JavaScripts load on users' mobile browsers and silently connect with native apps running on the same device through localhost sockets [WebRTC]. As native apps access programatically device identifiers like the Android Advertising ID (AAID) or handle user identities as in the case of Meta apps, this method effectively allows these organizations to link mobile browsing sessions and web cookies to user identities, hence de-anonymizing users' visiting sites embedding their scripts."
similar to what ebay does. seems like facebook wants another maximum GDPR fine (which should be increased btw).

Tall ship brings ESA ocean science training to Nice
After an extraordinary six-week voyage from northern Norway, the iconic Norwegian tall ship Statsraad Lehmkuhl has docked in Nice, France, concluding ESA’s 2025 Advanced Ocean Training course. Braving everything from wild storms to calm near-freezing seas, students aboard mastered techniques for collecting ocean measurements and harnessed satellite data to unlock insights into our blue planet.
Led by experts, this real-world expedition offered more than education – it sparked curiosity and a deeper commitment to understanding and protecting our oceans.

Ukraine could attack Russian bombers like sitting ducks because the New START treaty. That's why US nuclear bombers (B-1Bs, B-2s, B-52s) are also parked visibly at Diego Garcia and elsewhere; China, who didn't sign the treaty, hides its bombers away in underground concrete shelters.
So of course the US must feign ignorance, else it would obviously constitute unilateral break of a treaty, that could call for thermonuclear retaliation. That's how close we come to global annihilation but, hey, "the good guys scored a point". Morons.
