European countries: No idea what’s going on… Can we please ask Israel to investigate?
Israel: Now I’m taking a dump on your head.
European countries: How odd, this is a new sensation, perhaps we should consider organising a committee to discuss a potential response to this latest eccentric gesture from our close friend and ally. fe.disroot.org/objects/9c71cb1…
I am afraid your missing some important details here in the narrative. There are currently several European countries that are trying to get some boycott measurements against Israël: France, UK, Netherlands and others.
Also the International Criminal Court (ICC) had issued warrant of arrest for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant last year.
@Luminous_J I’m afraid you’re missing the fact that we’re doing fuck all as Israel carries out a genocide. Will be very happy to eat my words (and have seconds) if any of our so-called civilised countries lifts a single bloody hand to stop this genocide.
@pluralistic may have coined the term "enshittification", but it is my opinion Microsoft took that word and fucking ran with it, making it part of their corporate identity and how they approach developing new products or updating existing ones.
Gentle readers, I have just wrapped up a fun side project that will be of great interest to a very small number of you. The result of one of the most technically demanding efforts of my career, I a…
Errol Flynn and his first wife, French actress Lili Damita. Of his volatile marriage to the fiery Damita, Flynn said: In bed sexually, fabulous, wonderfully exciting, beautiful.
You’re literally the standards body of surveillance capitalism. Shut the fuck up about privacy. The corporate members that fund your existence violate privacy as the core driver of their business models.
Last week the @tag published the Privacy Principles as a W3C Statement. This document elaborates on the privacy principle from the Ethical Web Principles: "Security and privacy are essential."
Privacy is an essential part of the web.
Right---privacy is not some academic curiosity in desperate need of debate and clarification. It is a pressing, immediate real-world problem that everyone understands in a practical way.
So what effect is w3c having in practice on privacy on the web? Who supports w3C, and what does that means in practice? That is is all anyone should pay attention to, not whether hypocrites are getting their statement of "principles" just right.
To the white Jewish shapeshifting protesters I saw last week holding a sign that said, “If you’re white you’re automatically antisemitic”, you really aren’t doing yourselves any future favors. Your overlords, your Zuckerbergs, Yellens, Soros, Mayorkas, your Finks-will hang you out to dry for their world communist cause so fast it will make your kippah fly off, just like they did in WW2.

"This report arrives at a time in which people are using generative AI for absolutely everything. Google announced at its annual I/O event that it's leaning into AI with fervor. Google Search, Gmail, Docs, and Meet are all seeing AI integrations. People are using AI to lead job interviews, create deepfakes of OnlyFans models, and cheat in college."
Of all the goddamn files, for all the goddamn things, must you insist on putting this file in the root of my $HOME?
Yes it's a dot-file. Yes it's supposed to be hidden. But I want to see other hidden files and folders in my $HOME and this one just sticks out like a sore thumb.
And I can't even fucking delete it either! (I mean, I can...)
Because if I do, I'll just be greeted with a nanny-state warning message again about sudoing like I'm a Linux green-horn. (Been using Linux since the early 1990s.)
So I beg you, please reconsider.
Consider a file in /etc or adopting the GECOS field in /etc/passwd or a completely separate file in /etc that you can append to when I sudo to root.
But please keep some shit out of my $HOME if you can!
Surely there must be some other way to check if the user is running sudo for the first time. Googling the file name as is, specificially ".sudo_as_admin_successful" will show the entire first page ...
“The handwringing is just another bit of stagecraft, little different from the earlier mix of silence and talk about Israel’s ‘right to defend itself’. And it is to the same purpose: to buy Israel time to ‘finish the job’ – that is, to complete its genocide and ethnic cleansing of Gaza.”
Western capitals are still coordinating with Israel and the US on their 'criticisms' of the genocide – just as they earlier coordinated on their support for the slaughter
Otto von Bismarck: Struggle is everywhere, without struggle no life, and if we want to go on living, we must be ready for further struggles. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

In a weird twist of fate, both diplomats were Leftists. Yarón Lischinsky was a Christian Israeli, heavily focused on 'interfaith dialogue' & Sarah Milgrim was a Tech2Peace employee previously. The jihadis always kill those who show them compassion.
@ArneBab Oh, no, please, assume the worst about me. Clearly, you know exactly what I’m referring to. Couldn’t have anything to do with the complicit governments in the EU.
And yeah, did you hear over 50,000 people have been murdered by Israel and they’re commit genocide.
No, no, though, please, vent at me. I’m the problem.
Oh, were two Israeli government officials murdered? Please let me know when the number gets to 50,000 and I’ll consider reviewing my preferential trade agreements with Palestine.

The current anti-white genocide in South Africa is every bit as bad as the Apartheid. Maybe worse. Similar sanctions should be levied against their racist government as were used to crush the Apartheid. If they act like savages, they should be cut off from the civilized world.
À la fin du XIXe siècle, une décision a été prise lors des premiers Jeux olympiques modernes. Tous les athlètes allaient courir dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre. Mais en 1913, les athlètes se sont rebellés en signalant qu’ils avaient vraiment beaucoup de mal à être au top de leurs performances en courant dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre et ont demandé à inverser le sens de leur rotation. Ils ont obtenu gain de cause. Ce n’est qu’en 2004 qu’un chercheur japonais a compris pourquoi les athlètes s’étaient ainsi rebellés. Hideaki Fukami retient une chose. Les athlètes disent être plus à l’aise en tournant vers la gauche. Il décide donc de les faire courir un 400 mètres dans les deux sens pour comparer. Il constate alors que leur temps est meilleur lorsqu’ils prennent les virages avec la corde à gauche (donc en partant dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d’une montre). Il en conclut que l’hémisphère droit permet l’estimation de l’espace, mais que le gauche améliore très nettement la vision, donc diminue le risque de chute et permet un meilleur appui sur la jambe gauche des athlètes droitiers

Reminds me of a story from a friend that did an Atlantic crossing on a sailboat. Twice during the crossing, they were alerted because the radar had detected a cargo vessel on collision course. Imagine you're sailing across the wide "empty" Ocean and somehow manage to intercept the course of a ~20m object with pinpoint accuracy^^
I blame the householder. If he didn't want ships to come and frolic in his garden he shouldn't have put his garden on one of the wavey up and down bits of the planet. Everyone knows how hard it is to tell the difference between wavey up and down water and wavey up and down land, especially at night. Should have chosen somewhere like Essex or Beachy Head.
The Norwegians I know are pretty unflappable, so I like to imagine the owners of the house were sitting on the porch with cups of tea, calmly beholding the ship bearing straight towards their front yard & slightly tucking back their feet as it came to a stop right in front of them 😂

What's wild to me is that it looks like there's just trees and shore line to either side of the house and wide open waters behind the boat and yet somehow that boat ran directly into the only spot on that part of the shoreline that has a house sitting on it. How did that happen?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered a renewed offensive in Gaza with the aim of retaking the entire strip and eliminating Hamas. As a result, the country’s foreign allies have begun to substantially push back on Jerusalem and public opinion has turned decidedly against the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and their ongoing efforts in the coastal region.
Though the ongoing conflict has long prompted humanitarian objections from Western leaders and even led to the International Criminal Court issuing an arrest warrant against him, Western countries have largely confined their objections to public crit…

first thing I heard on the news this morning... some guy with a handgun walks up to a group of 4 people coming out of the Washington DC Jewish Museum... - and then kills only 2 of them.
anyways, I thought, "well... that's sus AF". (has anyone searched their social media for anti-Netanyahoo posts?)
and now, I find out the guy is an Hispanic Communist.
the irony...
