"Sen. John Fetterman has missed 30 floor votes this year. Back in his state of Pennsylvania, he’s cancelled town halls and come under fire for failing to engage with his own constituents.
But in March, during a state work period in which senators typically engage with the people they represent, he instead went on an all-expenses-paid trip to Israel, thanks to the generosity of a New York City nonprofit focused on mental health in the international Jewish community.
Alongside his wife Gisele, Fetterman flew first class to Israel and stayed in five-star hotels in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem as part of a “Fact-Finding Mission,” according to recent travel disclosure documents. On the trip, the itinerary shows, he met with President Benjamin Netanyahu “to discuss the current state of affairs in Israel and Israel’s response to the mental health crisis following the October 7th terrorist attacks.” During that meeting, Netanyahu gave Fetterman a silver beeper to commemorate Israel’s attack in Lebanon — which the United Nations has called a “terrifying violation of international law.”
Fetterman’s three-day Israel trip, which cost over $36,000, was funded by Relief Resources, a New York City-based nonprofit that describes itself as “dedicated to supporting the international Jewish community in overcoming the broad range of conditions related to mental illness.” While Fetterman has been under intense scrutiny surrounding his mental health and ability to do his job, on the trip he was honored at a Jerusalem gala for his “leadership in mental health awareness and legislative advocacy.”"
Russian Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu said that relations between Russia and the DPRK are ‘vigorously developing’ and reflect a mutual desire to expand cooperation.
#Netanyahu is facing increasing pressure from #European states, including the threat of sanctions. The unanswered question is whether #Trump will actually let Europe take action, or will he once again shield #Israel from any accountability.

In case this isn’t obvious: In a healthy political system, if officials released a hyped report on health policy, and the document relied on scientific sources that didn’t exist, those officials would be expected to resign — quickly. msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/m…
There's new evidence that the White House's “The MAHA Report: Making Our Children Healthy Again” relied in part on scientific research that doesn't exist.
Certain studies within the Trump administration's "Make America Healthy Again" report do not exist as cited, ABC News has confirmed. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/rfk-jrs-maha-report-contained-existent-studies/story?id=122321059

"Alexis Kohler est parti après dix ans de bons et loyaux services à Macron. Mais ne vous en faites pas, il part vers de meilleurs horizons. Dans les prochaines semaines il rejoindra le groupe bancaire Société Générale. Et oui, la Société Générale : la banque, Jérôme Kerviel, tout ça quoi ! Quand un homme au service de l'intérêt général se met à travailler pour une entreprise privée, c'est du pantouflage. Et c'est pas très compliqué de trouver des cas de pantouflage, dans les plus hautes sphères il y en a tout le temps. Je pense qu'avec cet exemple, vous avez une meilleure idée de ce qu'est le pantouflage. Mais question, d'où ça vient ? Et surtout, pourquoi ça a un nom aussi rigolo ?"

News lets you import an already existing list of feeds, or you can create one. It supports folders, and News can auto discover feeds for you. News lets you export your feed list, navigate using the J and K keys of your keyboard, and you can use another app that plugs into nextcloud, like NewsFlash on GNOME.
Next app is Notes. All my scripts and articles are written in Notes. You just get basic markdown support for titles, bold and italic, and section headers, and it lets you place your notes into categories. It also supports versioning. I use Iotas on GNOME to access and edit these notes.
Nextcloud collectives is also interesting, it's a leaner, faster version of something like Confluence. It lets you create Collectives, lets others collaborate and edit them, and they support more advanced syntax, with images or emojis. You can create templates, pages, subpages, you can view page outlines, or add links from one page to another.
For task management, I use Nextcloud Tasks and Deck. Tasks lets you create multiple lists, and multiple tasks per list, with support for tags, start date, due date, priorities, and even completion percentage or current status. As per Nextcloud Deck, it places tasks in boards, that you can customize with all the columns you want, and it supports the same tags and the same properties for each task as Nextcloud tasks.
Next one is Nextcloud passwords. It's a password manager, self hosted on your nextcloud server, so it's less likely to be affected in a wide data breach. It's end to end encrypted. It has a web interface to browse your passwords, but you'll really want to use the browser extensions for Firefox or any Chrome based browser.
Another small app I use every day is External Sites. It lets you add shortcuts to other websites inside your nextcloud menu, and it will open them in your nextcloud interface.
Nextcloud has a connector to let you plug an office suite directly to your nextcloud server. I went for OnlyOffice, and it lets me create new documents straight from the Nextcloud files app, and edit existing ones from the web interface, on any computer I want.
Custom menu is basically give you complete control over how your menu works.
Mastodon integration lets me add my mastodon feed or mentions onto my Nextcloud dashboard.
All my contacts are hosted on Nextcloud, and so are my calendars. They plug in on the desktop with GNOME's online accounts, and on mobile, well it's just caldav and carddav, any OS can access that.
Nextcloud Forms lets you create surveys easily, with multiple question types, single or multiple answers, long form text fields, and more, and it lets you publish a public link to that survey.
Nextcloud photos progressed a TON in the last version of Nextcloud, and now supports albums, editing your photos, sharing them with other people, and it can even auto recognize faces in your various pictures.
Files has the ability to move, copy, paste, favorite your files and folders, you can share them, you can edit them, and it auto syncs with the nextcloud desktop client, and you can access everything from the nextcloud mobile app for iOS and Android.

Timecodes: 00:00 Intro 00:43 Valve's rating system is a net negative 03:35 Anti cheat is getting worse 07:27 Microsoft could kill Linux gaming 10:17 Valve is our only lifeline 11:33 It's not all bleak! 15:14 Sponsor: Tuxedo Computers 16:03 Support the channel
To begin with, we have the current mess that is Steamplay, proton and generally the Valve Steam Deck compatibility rating. This rating changes, and not always positively: it's a measure of how well a game runs RIGHT NOW, it is utterly untrustworthy as a purchasing aid. You can't rely on this rating to purchase a game for Linux or the Steam Deck specifically, because this rating is made by Valve, not by the game developer, it doesn't imply official support from the devs, and if the devs change something for Windows users that breaks Linux gaming, we're out of luck.
Of course, most of these games that become unplayable, or have never been playable, well that's due to anti cheat. The anti cheat situation on Linux is problematic.
EAC from Epic is used by plenty of games that run perfectly on Linux. BattleEye works on Ark survival evolded, or DayZ. This can work, and for pretty big games. So, why are game developers not enabling these solutions for their games when they're run with proton?
The main issue can be twofold here: first, you can't really run an anticheat with proton at the kernel level, because proton doesn't have these privileges, and runs in userpsace. This means they are potentially less effective on Linux. It also means they have to agree to let users that don't have the kernel level anti cheat software play on their servers, meaning some Windows users can now try and make that work, and masquerade as Linux users, while they actively cheat on Windows: it just opens a door for cheaters that are determined enough, a door that you wouldn't have to open if you didn't accept Linux gamers.
And this is just the Linux related problems. Because Linux games are Windows games, really, that use a third party tool to run. The moment Microsoft implements something that can't legally be reimplemented with proton, or can't technically be reimplemented through Proton, linux gaming is dead.
Have you heard about this rumor that microsoft wants to kill kernel level anticheat? Well it's a false rumor. They want to implement ANOTHER way to have such systme access with less chances of killing the OS, like with the crowdstrike incident. This means that in the future, Microsoft will look at Windows specific ways to run kernel level tools, ways that we likely won't be able to replicate on Linux.
Linux gaming is propped up by valve right now. Proton has MADE Linux gaming, and currently, I'd argue Linux gaming is basically Steam Gaming. Sure, you can play stuff with Heroic, or Lutris, or another launcher, but it runs with Wine. Wine's development is done mostly by paid employees of Codeweavers, who is funded a LOT by Valve.
Of course, it's not ALL bleak. There are glimmers of hope that we might land on the right side of the cliff.
First, Valve is committed. You don't start your own hardware with the Deck, and its OLED model, if you don't think there's a path to success. We also have other things on the horizon: while Valve says they want to SteamOS for other computers, we also have investment from big companies like Square Enix and Samsung, in playtronOS, another Linux based distro.
We also have Microsoft, adopting Vulkan's shader format instead of their own in DirectX, meaning they are moving towards more open standards, not closing things down.
Over the last few years there's been leaps and bounds made in Linux gaming, with
continuous improvements being made to compatibility layers and GPU drivers.

Yeah, men are not voting for that at all. They also aren’t leading the political movement (including censorship, propaganda, and imprisonment) that causes partisans to vote that way.
"a woman who expects her husband to support her is selfish"
ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!!!
YOU made the retarded claim that men are "more selfish than women", which you failed to support with even a shred of evidence.
I said that men are HAPPY TO SUPPORT THEIR WIVES AND FAMILIES, proving that they are NOT selfish, in their large majority!
The problem with woke feminists is that they BELITTLE women who want to be stay-at-home moms and don't get me started on the horrendous misandrist garbage spread by feminists over the last 50-60 years 😡😡😡
It is time, plain and simple, to give up the thought that anything good is to come out of Trump's next three and a half years.
