Sent a support ticket to a #service that I #subscribe to expressing my disappointment that I couldn't seem to do very basic things with their product/ service.
Bitch-ass #CustomerService #rep replies back scolding me for not viewing the "#onboarding #video".
Ok.
First off, if you have a product or a service and you only provide a "video" to teach your customers how to use your product, well... fuck you.
Videos don't work for everyone. Some of your customers might be deaf, or visually impaired.
Second, if you need a fucking #TRAININGVIDEO to teach your customers how to use your product or service you have flat out FAILED in every conceivable way.
Your product or service should be intuitive enough that your customers don't need a training video to learn how to use your product.

That was the original statement… then she mumbled something inarticulate about OECD but even that isn’t true:Canada does not have the lowest living standard amongst OECD nations.
They are full of shit, spew shit, and for some reason people gleefully swallow their shit.
“for some reason” … that’s misleadingly vague… we know the reason:
There is a group of Canadians who feel they are losing privilege, and they are willing to throw the environment, the future, and their neighbours under the bus to maintain it. But fighting to maintain privilege to a little too baldly like bigotry, so a manufactured crisis narrative gives cover to recast their self-centredness as ‘clear-eyed pragmatism’.

Palestinians say Israel and its allies fired on crowd near Gaza aid site. Hospital says 14 killed @palestine
#GazaGenocide / Special report: Ethnic cleansing through healthcare denial
This investigative report documents systematic war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Israel against Palestinian healthcare workers and patients during the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
The report documents how #Israel weaponized healthcare as part of its broader genocidal campaign, using medical institutions as instruments of ethnic cleansing while Israeli medical professionals actively participated in or remained silent about these crimes against humanity.
Mass Detention and Torture of Medical Personnel
At least 380 healthcare workers from #Gaza have been arrested by Israeli forces since October 2023, with 24 forcibly disappeared. The report documents extensive torture in Israeli detention facilities:
- Dr. H., an orthopedic surgeon, was beaten, sexually assaulted, and tortured for 69 days at Sde Teiman detention camp
- Medical staff were subjected to “disco rooms” with non-stop deafening music, dog attacks, and systematic beatings
- Prisoners were kept shackled and blindfolded constantly, fed through straws, and forced to use diapers
Deaths in Custody
At least 90 Palestinians have died in Israeli custody since October 2023, including prominent doctors:
- Dr. Adnan al-Borsh
- Dr. Iyad al-Rantisi
- Dr. Ziad al-Dalo
- Paramedic Hamdan Abu-Anaba
For comparison, only 9 prisoners died at #Guantanamo Bay over 20+ years.
Medical Complicity in War Crimes
Israeli healthcare institutions systematically violated medical ethics:
- Hospitals refused treatment to Palestinian patients on government orders
- Medical staff participated in torture and abuse of Palestinian detainees
- Israeli doctors called for bombing Gaza hospitals and exterminating all Palestinians
[…] “In early November 2023, close to a report by the World Health Organization that the Israeli army had killed at least 9,770 Palestinians by that point - including about 4,000 children - and wounded another 25,000, dozens of Israeli doctors published an open letter calling for bombing hospitals in Gaza.”
[…] The doctors wrote: “Gaza residents who chose to turn hospitals into terror nests in an attempt to exploit Western morality, they are the ones who brought destruction upon themselves.”They added that “abandoning Israeli civilians and protecting mass murderers just because they are hiding in hospitals - is inconceivable.
- The Israeli Medical Association justified attacks on Palestinian hospitals
[…] Dr. Chana Katan (see #Wikipedia entry, hopefully some could take the time to update en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chana_…), an Israeli-American gynecologist and one of the signatories to the letter, said: “I will do everything in my power to support and protect IDF soldiers, and ensure they return home safely. The IDF has the duty to attack terrorists hiding inside hospitals in Gaza.” UN representatives and human rights organizations, including Human Rights Watch, have repeatedly emphasized that Israel has not provided sufficient evidence for claims about the use of hospitals by armed groups. Analysis of visual findings revealed that the claims of the IDF spokesperson are not credible.
[…] Dr. Amos Szabo, a senior surgeon at Maccabi Health Services, wrote on social media X that he sees his reserve military service as a means to promote public health, “since this involves eliminating cockroaches and other disgusting insects.” A few months earlier he also wrote: “Gaza must be erased. There are no innocents there.”
Destruction of Gaza’s Healthcare System
Israel has systematically destroyed Gaza’s medical infrastructure:
- Over 1,400 healthcare workers killed
- Hospitals bombed and besieged
- Medical facilities deliberately targeted despite no evidence of military use
- 15 paramedics executed by Israeli forces in coordinated ambush
Dr. H.’s testimony from detention (one testimony out of many quoted):
During the March 2024 raid on Nasser Hospital, Dr. H., an orthopedic surgeon, was beaten by soldiers who “kicked him in the stomach, groin and testicles, ordered him to undress, handcuffed him, blindfolded him and led him to the hospital courtyard.” He was then taken to the notorious Sde Teiman military camp.
Dr. H. testified that during his 69 days at Sde Teiman, guards put him in a “disco room” - a room without mattresses where deafening music played non-stop. He was then taken to an interrogation room where, according to his testimony, “they tortured me for six days, with my hands and feet tied behind my back to a chair. They beat me in the stomach and slapped me while my eyes were covered.”
After 43 days, Dr. H. was transferred to a detention facility in Petah Tikva for continued interrogation. There he was examined by a doctor who confirmed he had developed hernias in the groin and abdomen area. “Despite him saying I needed surgery and shouldn’t be interrogated,” Dr. H. recounted, “I was returned to Sde Teiman without any medical treatment. When I returned to the detention facility, the soldiers beat me, slammed my head on the floor, pushed me into the sand, and kicked and punched me.”

"Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley is a quintessential pop anthem that has become a cultural phenomenon. With its catchy melody and memorable lyrics, this song embodies the spirit of the late 1980s, celebrating themes of love and commitment that resonate across generations.
Lyrics:
We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinkin' of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh, give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

"Save Your Tears" by The Weeknd is a captivating synth-pop track that explores themes of heartbreak and emotional vulnerability. With its infectious melody and poignant lyrics, the song invites listeners to reflect on the complexities of love and loss, making it a standout hit from the "After Hours" album.
Lyrics:
Ooh
Na na, yeah
I saw you dancing in a crowded room
You look so happy when I'm not with you
But then you saw me, caught you by surprise
A single teardrop falling from your eye
I don't know why I run away
I make you cry when I run away
You could've asked me why I broke your heart
You could've told me that you fell apart
But you walked past me like I wasn't there
And just pretended like you didn't care
I don't know why I run away
I make you cry when I run away
Take me back 'cause I wanna stay
Save your tears for another
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
So
I made you think that I would always stay
I said some things that I should never say
Yeah, I broke your heart like someone did to mine
And now you won't love me for a second time
I don't know why I run away, oh, girl
Said I make you cry when I run away
Girl, take me back 'cause I wanna stay
Save your tears for another
I realize that I'm much too late
And you deserve someone better
Save your tears for another day (Ooh, yeah)
Save your tears for another day (Yeah)
I don't know why I run away
I make you cry when I run away
Save your tears for another day, ooh, girl (Ah)
I said save your tears for another day (Ah)
Save your tears for another day (Ah)
Save your tears for another day (Ah)

"Africa" by Toto is an iconic rock ballad that has captivated audiences with its rich melodies and evocative lyrics. Released in the 1980s, this timeless classic continues to resonate, celebrating the beauty and mystery of the African continent while showcasing the band's exceptional musicianship.
Lyrics:
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa (gonna take the time)

P.121
Invitations to receptions, dedications, openings, and so forth were delivered to Shevek daily. He went to some, because he had come to Urras on a mission, and must try to fulfil I; he must urge the idea of brotherhood, he must represent, in his own person, the solidarity of the Two Worlds. He spoke, and people listened to him and said, "How true".
P. 214
"Hell!" He said aloud. Pravin was not a good swearing language. It is hard to swear when sex is not dirty and blasphemy doesn't exist. Oh, hell!" He repeated. He crumpled up Sabul's grubby little note vindictively, and then brought s hands down clenched against the edge of the table, twice, three times, in his passion seeking pain. But there was nothing. There wa nothing to be done and nowhere to be gone. He was left at last with the bedding to unroll, with lying down and getting to sleep, with evil dreams and without comfort.
Résumé
Shevek est un physicien qui travaille sur la simultanéité sur Anarres, la lune aride d'Urras. Anarres est une société anarchiste. Shevek est un franc-tireur, il promet la révolution dans un monde révolutionnaire qui se laisse peut-être dériver. Alors, il va sur Arras, monde de capitalistes et d'exploitation.
Avis
6/5 juste merveilleux. Les personnages, la peinture sociale, les relations de couple, les relations de pouvoir, les relations parents-enfants, ... même la scène d'ivresse. Tout est dépeint d'une manière incroyablement juste et touchante. En même temps la vision politique et philosophique sur la nature de la liberté humaine est d'une profondeur rarement vue.

Die bayerische Metall- und Elektroindustrie hat innerhalb eines Jahres 20.000 Arbeitsplätze abgebaut – ein Viertel davon allein im ersten Quartal 2025. Dies bedeutet den stärksten Beschäftigungsrückgang seit der Finanzkrise 2009.Jonas Aston (Apollo News)
Beispiel USA:
Versuch einer Reindustrialsiierung und Versuch, der immensen Staatsverschuldung zu entkommen.
Gefahr: Abbau von Arbeitsplätzen, zunehmende Staatsverschuldung.
Wie geht es weiter: Schuldenmachen? Chinesische Lieferketten?

Extraits
Bates pointed down one of the passage ways - "Keeton" -- and another -- "Sascha" -- before turning to coast off down her own unbeaten path.
I looked uneasily down mine. "Any particular --"
"Twenty-five minutes," she said.
I turned and jetted slowly down my assigned passageway. The passage curved clockwise, a long unremarkable spiral; after twenty meters that curvature would have blocked any view of its entrance even if the foggy atmosphere hadn't. My front kept point across the tunnel, its sonar clicking like the chattering of a thousand tiny teeth, its tether unspooling back to the distant drum in the nexus.
It was a comfort, that leash, it was short. The grunts could stray ninety meters and no farther, and we were under strict orders to stay under their wings at all times. This dim infested burrow might lead all the way to hell, but I would not be expected to follow it nearly so far. My cowardice had official sanction.

Une expédition dans le nuage de Oort va au contact des aliens après une incursion terrestre (une "pluie d'étoiles"). Les aliens sont très aliens : ils ne sont pas conscients. Questionnements sur l'individu, la conscience.
Avis
4/5 ultra-geek, probablement incompréhensible au pékin : références innombrables, Searle's Chinese Room, Oliver Sacks, etc.

Die EU-Kommission finanziert NGOs, die mit juristischen Angriffen gegen europäische Unternehmen vorgehen – ein unfassbarer Skandal zum Schaden der eigenen Wirtschaft und der Steuerzahler.Sofia Taxidis (Tichys Einblick)

A researcher at the University of Michigan, Yunqing Jian, and her boyfriend, Zunyong Liu, were arrested for attempting to smuggle strains of the fungus Fusarium graminearum into the United States. The fungus, which is already prevalent in the U.S. and causes a common crop disease called Fusarium head blight or head scab, is believed to have originated in North America.

Agroterrorism, dammit.
Ignoterrorism, should they say.
Fusarium graminearum is a disease that's common worldwide. Also a very common subject to plant pathology research.
Ignorant idiots, sabotaging their own country's research work by being so painfully illiterate.
This is what we could call "dihydrogene oxide syndrom", IMHO.

Die EU-Kommission schmiedete heimlich eine Allianz mit NGOs, um ihre Ziele durchzusetzen. In Geheim-Verträgen legte die Behörde fest, wie die Aktivisten Kohlekraft und Handelsabkommen torpedieren sollten – und zahlte viel Geld dafür.Stefan Beutelsbacher (WELT)
