"Professor Ralph Wilde of University College London, an international law expert, unequivocally condemned Israel’s Gaza displacement plans as illegal under multiple legal frameworks.

Hey, please stop repeating the misinformation that corps are legally required to maximize profits or your shareholders can sue you. It's propaganda promoted by a handful of huge fund managers because they'd *like that* to be true.

Even SCOTUS agrees “Modern corporate law does not require for-profit corporations to pursue profit at the expense of everything else, and many do not.” (Burwell v. Hobby Lobby)

Firefox is fine. The people running it are not • The Register

Money is the problem. Not too little, but too much. Where there's wealth, there's a natural human desire to make more wealth. Ever since Firefox 1.0 in 2004, Firefox has never had to compete. It's been attached like a mosquito to an artery to the Google cash firehose. The Reg noted it in 2007, and it made more the next year. We were dubious when Firefox turned five.
And as for that money — remember back in 2018? That's when Google dropped "Don't be evil" as its motto.
Mozilla's leadership is directionless and flailing because it's never had to do, or be, anything else. It's never needed to know how to make a profit, because it never had to make a profit. It's no wonder it has no real direction or vision or clue: it never needed them. It's role-playing being a business.


This is a good summary of all the good they have done and also how they repeatedly throw out the baby but keep the bathwater.

And this interesting bit.

Mozilla is, sadly, far from alone in having faltering leadership. Around the industry, tech execs who couldn't tell an LLM bot from an MLM scheme if their lives depended on it are investing in AI. It's not just cool, it's a cult now. This isn't hyperbole. The phenomenon has a name – it's called TESCREAL, and it is without exaggeration on its way to becoming a religion.

An Allen Syncrograph Model E135 automotive distributor testing machine in a shop, consisting of a red and black trunk-like base with wheels and aluminium (maybe) trim, a large red boxlike device with a light and a needle display atop of it, and atop of _that_ a tryptich of three large vertical panels connected together with deco metalwork, the outer pair being some sort of collection of printed data and the centre panel being large panel displays with physical needle indicators presumably showing... Centred above that is some sort of projecting bronze part, kind of T-shaped, but with bell-shaped cones on the end. What are they for? I've no idea. it is a device of great mystery.

it's a device for tuning automotive distributors. looks like it's missing the chuck? you clamp the distributor onto that arm, and then a chuck is supposed to go from the plate up to the distributor. you put the wires on it and the thing spins the distributor at various speeds (see the 'engine speed' gauge) and the firing points show up on the plate at the bottom. the charts are various ignition timing information for various engines, so you can see how far off your distributor is and figure out what you need to change.

I haven't seen anyone use one of these things since I was a little kid, and I'm old as hell

North Korea only became like this after the US blew up their entire country, killed about a fifth of their people, and then sat next to their borders for seventy years with guns pointed at them (and also sanctioning the hell out of them after the end of the USSR). Iran wanting to have nukes is due to the understanding that Israel has them, and getting their nuclear facilities bombed has not only not eliminated their nuclear weapons program, but fully justified it.

Seattle voters recently approved a 5% payroll tax on high incomes to fund social housing, aiming to build permanently affordable homes for a range of incomes. The initiative could generate $52 million annually for the new Seattle Social Housing program. theconversation.com/from-seatt…

From Seattle to Atlanta, new social housing programs seek to make homes permanently affordable for a range of incomes

Americans are realizing that the country’s two-tiered system of market-rate housing and government-operated, low-income housing isn’t doing the trick.

It is actually very difficult to externally rotate the hips as much as they do in ballet for some people that have never trained in it even if they can do the splits and had a lot of yoga

Balancing on only the toes instead of the whole foot is also challenging

These two features make ballet exercise unique compared too many other common types of exercise and uniquely different than many other types of dance

Princess Tutu is a Japanese Anime that goes into great detail about ballet style when people move

Even when they are running or dance fighting they run with the hips externally rotated like in ballet

If you like ballet I strongly reccommend watching Princess Tutu if you can watch the whole series for free

@shortstories My sister did ballet for years. She did not pursue it. She was remarkably fit and lithe.
We are estranged...
This reminded me of her.
Sorry for rambling. Perhaps it was just cathartic release.

Aside: yoga is not a fitness regime. It is a spiritual practice to be grounded with Nature. Western ideas have subverted it. Unfortunate.

Also: The Russians were clearly better at this performance of Swan Lake. Synchronization and smoothness of movement.

Programming a computer is not weird or abstract or even that difficult. It's just writing a list of steps in a format your machine can understand. In theory, a human being could also "execute" a program as well if they understood how it worked.

And computers are just electronic circuits that are designed to execute stored programs. Programming is the original way to use a computer.

“Studies show actually deporting workers en masse from industries that rely on undocumented labor does little for U.S. workers … [and] actually reduces job opportunities for American-born workers.

That’s in part because many American workers, even those outside of immigrant-heavy industries, rely on the services generated by low-wage, undocumented labor — the costs of which would rise with mass deportations.”

Folks here will notice that I’m less frequently detailing lower court opinions that attempt to stop the Trump regime’s lawless actions. This is because enough time has passed for enough appeals to reach the U.S. Supreme Court for U.S. to know that no matter how carefully a lower court judge explains and supports her rulings, the Supreme Court will act as lawlessly as the Trump executive. 1/ #LawFedi
