My first paid software development job was on accessibility software. I remember visiting a user to help set up our code, and the sheer joy he had at being able to communicate more quickly than he had been able to for years.
Seeing the effort put into improving modern Linux accessibility is heartwarming. There's been almost 20 years of almost nobody caring. It's important. It's worthwhile.
Say thank you to the people doing that work. Stop amplifying the people saying that work isn't happening.
Bangladesh has proposed the formation of a dedicated platform involving South Asian countries and China to jointly address the increasing threats posed by climate change in the region.
"South Asia is one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change. We need a common platform, with the cooperation of China, to tackle this in a sustainable way," said Ruhul Alam Siddique, acting foreign secretary of Bangladesh.
He made the remarks at the 9th China-South Asia Exposition and the 29th China Kunming Import and Export Fair yesterday.
CE QUI M'A ÉTÉ DIT VA ARRIVER EN IRAN Le plan de bataille initial pour une nouvelle guerre Seymour #HERSH (19 juin 2025) :
Voici un rapport sur ce qui va très probablement se passer en #Iran, dès ce week-end, selon des sources israéliennes et des responsables américains en qui j'ai confiance depuis des décennies. Cela impliquera de lourds bombardements américains. J'ai vérifié ce rapport auprès d'un responsable américain de longue date à Washington, qui m'a dit que tout serait «sous contrôle» si le guide suprême iranien Ali Khamenei «disparaissait». On ignore toutefois comment cela pourrait se produire, à moins d'un assassinat. On a beaucoup parlé de la puissance de feu américaine et des cibles à l'intérieur de l'Iran, mais, pour autant que je sache, peu de réflexions concrètes ont été menées sur la manière de destituer un chef religieux vénéré qui bénéficie d'un immense soutien populaire.
Je couvre depuis des décennies, à distance, la politique #nucléaire et étrangère d'Israël. Mon livre publié en 1991, The Samson Option, raconte l'histoire de la fabrication de la bombe atomique israélienne et la volonté des États-Unis de garder ce projet secret. La question la plus importante qui reste sans réponse concernant la situation actuelle est celle de la réaction du monde, y compris celle de Vladimir #Poutine, le président russe qui est un allié des dirigeants iraniens.
Les États-Unis restent le plus important allié d' #Israël, même si beaucoup, ici et dans le monde entier, abhorrent la guerre meurtrière que mène Israël à #Gaza. L'administration #Trump soutient pleinement le plan actuel d'Israël visant à débarrasser l'Iran de toute trace de programme nucléaire, tout en espérant que le gouvernement dirigé par les ayatollahs à Téhéran sera renversé.
J'ai appris que la Maison Blanche avait donné son feu vert à une campagne de bombardements intensifs en Iran, mais les cibles ultimes, les centrifugeuses enfouies à au moins 80 mètres sous terre à Fordow, ne seront pas frappées avant le week-end, à l'heure où j'écris ces lignes. Ce report est dû à l'insistance de Trump, qui souhaite que le choc du bombardement soit atténué autant que possible par l'ouverture de la Bourse de Wall Street lundi. (Trump a contesté ce matin sur les réseaux sociaux un article du Wall Street Journal affirmant qu'il avait décidé d'attaquer l'Iran, écrivant qu'il n'avait pas encore décidé de la marche à suivre).
Fordow abrite la majorité des centrifugeuses les plus avancées d'Iran qui, selon les derniers rapports de l'Agence internationale de l'énergie atomique, dont l'Iran est signataire, ont produit 900 livres d'uranium enrichi à 60 %, soit à deux doigts du niveau requis pour la fabrication d'armes nucléaires.
Les dernières frappes aériennes israéliennes contre l'Iran n'ont pas cherché à détruire les centrifugeuses de #Fordow, qui sont stockées à au moins 80 mètres sous terre. Il a été convenu mercredi que des bombardiers américains équipés de bombes capables de pénétrer à cette profondeur commenceront à attaquer le site de Fordow ce week-end.
Ce délai donnera aux forces militaires américaines présentes au #Moyen-Orient et en Méditerranée orientale (il y a plus d'une vingtaine de bases aériennes et de ports navals américains dans la région) le temps de se préparer à d'éventuelles représailles iraniennes. On suppose que l'Iran dispose encore de certaines capacités balistiques et aériennes qui figureront sur la liste des cibles américaines. «C'est l'occasion de se débarrasser une fois pour toutes de ce régime», m'a déclaré aujourd'hui un responsable bien informé, «alors autant voir les choses en grand». Il a toutefois précisé qu'il ne s'agirait pas d'un «tapis de bombes».
Les bombardements prévus ce week-end auront également de nouvelles cibles : les bases des Gardiens de la révolution, qui ont contré ceux qui font campagne contre les dirigeants révolutionnaires depuis le renversement violent du shah d'Iran au début de 1979.
Les dirigeants israéliens, sous la direction du Premier ministre Benjamin Netanyahu, espèrent que ces bombardements fourniront «les moyens de créer un soulèvement» contre le régime iranien actuel, qui a fait preuve de peu de tolérance envers ceux qui défient les dirigeants religieux et leurs édits. Les commissariats de police iraniens seront frappés. Les bureaux gouvernementaux qui abritent des dossiers sur les dissidents présumés en Iran seront également attaqués.
Les Israéliens espèrent apparemment aussi, si j'ai bien compris, que Khamenei fuira le pays et ne résistera pas jusqu'au bout. On m'a dit que son avion personnel avait quitté l'aéroport de Téhéran tôt mercredi matin à destination d'Oman, accompagné de deux avions de chasse, mais on ne sait pas s'il était à bord.
Seuls deux tiers des 90 millions d'Iraniens sont persans. Les minorités les plus importantes sont les #Azéris, dont beaucoup ont des liens secrets de longue date avec la #CIA, les Kurdes, les Arabes et les Baloutches. Les Juifs constituent également une petite minorité. (L' #Azerbaïdjan abrite une importante base secrète de la CIA pour ses opérations en Iran).
Le retour du fils du shah, qui vit actuellement en exil près de Washington, n'a jamais été envisagé par les stratèges américains et israéliens, m'a-t-on dit. Mais il a été question, au sein du groupe de planification de la Maison Blanche, dont fait partie le vice-président J.D. Vance, d'installer un leader religieux modéré à la tête du pays si #Khamenei était destitué. Les Israéliens se sont vivement opposés à cette idée. «Ils se fichent complètement de la question religieuse, mais exigent une marionnette politique pour contrôler le pays», a déclaré un haut responsable américain de longue date. «Nous sommes divisés avec les Israéliens sur ce point. Il en résulterait une hostilité permanente et des conflits futurs à perpétuité, Bibi essayant désespérément d'attirer les États-Unis comme allié contre tout ce qui est musulman, en utilisant le sort des citoyens comme appât propagandiste.»
Selon mes informations, les services de renseignement américains et israéliens espèrent que des éléments de la communauté azérie se joindront à une révolte populaire contre le régime au pouvoir, si une telle révolte venait à se développer pendant la poursuite des bombardements israéliens. Certains pensent également que certains membres des Gardiens de la révolution pourraient se joindre à ce qui pourrait être, selon mes informations, «un soulèvement démocratique contre les ayatollahs», une aspiration de longue date du gouvernement américain. Le renversement soudain et réussi de Bachar #al-Assad en Syrie a été cité comme un modèle potentiel, même si la chute d'Assad est intervenue après une longue guerre civile.
Il est possible que les bombardements massifs menés par Israël et les États-Unis plongent l'Iran dans un état de défaillance permanente, comme cela s'est produit après l'intervention occidentale en Libye en 2011. Cette révolte a abouti au meurtre brutal de Mouammar Kadhafi, qui maintenait sous contrôle les tribus disparates du pays. L'avenir de la #Syrie, de l' #Irak et du #Liban, tous victimes d'attaques extérieures répétées, est loin d'être réglé.
Donald Trump# veut clairement une victoire internationale qu'il pourra mettre en avant. Pour y parvenir, lui et #Netanyahu entraînent les #États-Unis dans une voie inédite.

In @pluralistic 's The Lost Cause there was some software that kids used to show fellow residents a vision of a better future by modelling their streets and their houses. Basically what construction companies do to sell houses, or what road building companies do to sell asphalt. But easier and faster to use.
The question is, do we have anything like that? I'm at a point where I need to show a future of my town to residents, and I want to show them pictures and renderings, not just maps.

On June 12, 2025, Aflac Incorporated, a Georgia corporation (the “Company”), identified unauthorized access to its network. The Company promptly initiated its cybersecurity incident response protocols and believes that it contained the intrusion within hours. The Company’s business remains operational, and its systems were not affected by ransomware. The Company continues to serve its policyholders as it responds to this incident and can underwrite policies, review claims, and otherwise service customers as usual. The Company has engaged leading third-party cybersecurity experts to support the Company’s response to the incident.

YNet berichtet über #OperationNarnia - ein seit 2012 geplantes Projekt des Militärgeheimdiensts von #Israel in dessen Rahmen 2022 eine Liste von 100 Top-Wissenschaftlern des #Iran aus der Atomforschung erstellten, die wörtlich "enthauptet", also niedergemetzelt werden sollten.
באמ"ן דירגו יותר מ-100 חוקרי אטום מרכזיים, לפי ארבע רמות: א' - החשובים ביותר - ב', ג', ד'. ואז הגיעה מכת הפתיחה של המלחמה, והשמות בצמרת הרשימה חוסלו בזה אחר זה | הסיפור המלא: היום ב"ידיעות אחרונות" במוסף "7 ימים"
Seit September begann dann die entsprechende konkrete Vorbereitung, weil man glaubte dass die Gelegenheit günstig sein wird das Projekt umzusetzen. Die Wissenschaftler auf der Liste wurden vom "Enthauptungsforum" - nach Kenntnisstand, Fachwissen und Bedeutung in Kategorien A, B, C, D selektiert, in der sie dann in der Reihenfolge von A bis D "enthauptet", also ermordet werden sollten.
Der Beginn des Angriffskriegs von Israel auf den Iran vor einer Woche diente dem Umsetzen der Operation Narnia. Also begann man die Reihe der Liste entlang zu gehen und ermorderte Wissenschaftler.
Ich denke das wirft einen wichtigen Blick auf die Begründung Israels für den plötzlichen Angriff.
Einen Einblick darüber wie diese Angriffe - zur Ermordung von Personen auf der Liste ausgeführt worden sind gibt dieser CNN-Beitrag.
Da wird dann schon mal ein ganzes Gebäude mit Einwohnern darin zerstört, in dem ein Wissenschaftler lebt. Ein anderes Gebäude wurde gezielt zerstört mit mindestens 40 Toten (15 davon Kinder), obwohl nur wenige hundert Meter ein leicht angreifbares militärisches Ziel war.

they often are. I am glad some things got squared away. Watch for the upper level course work as some classes are specialty. By then you should be friendly enough with the deans and profs. To have them help a bit more. One of my nieces is thinking of going into the same school of study (actuary).
I think the trades are good if your intent is to run your own shop - get certified and get 2-3 years of good experience in and then open your own business.
Perhaps, but not a single person wanting to study chemistry should be denied the opportunity because the university is instead putting money into professors to teach about Queer Japan.

The video depicts a poignant scene on a street where a person, dressed in a dark, soiled jacket and pants, is seated on the ground, facing away from the camera. Beside them is a large, transparent plastic bag and a small bowl, suggesting a situation of need. The person is seen reaching out towards the ground, possibly in search of something, while the background shows a closed shop with a metal shutter and a few pedestrians walking by, including one in a red shirt. The scene is set in a desolate urban environment, with the ground appearing dirty and the overall atmosphere somber. The video captures the essence of the person's plight, highlighting the stark contrast between their situation and the indifferent passersby.

Race shilling is racist, because it involves racial segregation, with "whites can't mix with browns and blacks because browns and blacks always fuck shit up" type of arguments, it's a social organization based on race and ethnics. Is it as hostile and violent as neonazi skinheads curbstomping and killing black guys on the street and calling them slurs? No, but it's still racist, racial segregation is the kind of speech these guys use for PR and plausible deniability as well, as many of them surely wouldn't mind venting their frustration by beating the living fuck out of "them filthy niggers".
Also always assume this kind of echochambers are a honeypot, feds have experience with this.
@sally you're making a lot of assumptions. i don't think having racial preferences is necessarily racist and i don't see anything there that's explicitly against other races, so i'm not convinced there's anything racist about it.
just playing devils advocate here with regard to the term "racist"
Whites likely get killed (though I'd blame them for going to a place they're not welcomed, bullying tourists is always correct), blacks get three times longer sentences for the same crimes whites commit in the US.
I get blacks do a lot of shit by virtue of being poorfags and crackheads but surely the State is handing them ammo very liberally by bullying them harder.
@sally @Yoruka >blacks get three times longer sentences for the same crimes this may have been true sometime in the distant past but it's quite the opposite now, especially in soros-controlled jurisdictions. whites get the book thrown at them and non-whites get let off for social justice reasons
Considering the US is a mostly white country with a majority of leaders being white I'll take this with a grain of salt, specially considering prisons and jail time are a business in the US, and blacks and chicanos being the racial minority (which are also much more likely to do violent crimes because they're poorfags and crackheads) are the easier target to print money off labor camps because they're that, a minority, far less numbers.
The jewish elite doesn't care about white goys much like they don't care about brown and black goys, but they're not stupid, they'd rather blatantly bully the weaker than the stronger, as harming the status-quo ultimately doesn't benefit them.
@cjd @Yoruka there is a difference between free association, which is fine, vs. segregationism which explicitly excludes certain people from their society based on race. That is what ethnostates necessitate.
@Yoruka @cjd How big would something have to be in order to be considered a "society"? Would something like a China-town or a Native American Reservation fit the idea of "freedom of association"?
@cjd @Yoruka freedom of association can include discrimination for sure, but I'm talking about a larger scale scenario where we're talking about inclusion in a state. I.e. black people don't have to hang out with white people, but that is different than white people not being allowed to be in a society with black people.
Maja is on hunger strike! Anti-fascist days of action 20-22 June 2025
Following an illegal extradition from Germany to Hungary and almost a year of cruel solitary confinement in Budapest, Maja, an anti-fascist from Jena, went on hunger strike on 5 June 2025. Maja is demanding to be transferred back to Germany.
The situation is acute. We must act now.
Every day of fasting increases the risk of damage to health. However, the German government and the German Foreign Office have not yet exerted any noticeable influence on the Hungarian government. It is therefore up to us to increase the pressure on them.
That is why we are calling for international days of action in solidarity with Maja on the weekend of 20 to 22 June. All over Germany and in other countries, rallies and actions should take place in front of German and Hungarian institutions and embassies and the seats of the responsible parties.
The action days take place 15 days after the start of the hunger strike. After two weeks of fasting, Maja will then already be in a critical phase. On 20 June 2025, the court in Budapest will also decide on their application to be transferred to house arrest.
Get active!
Form action committees in your cities now and prepare actions.
Activate your international contacts! We must build international pressure.
Go to the embassies and consulates of Hungary and Germany.
Organise demonstrations and creative actions in public spaces.
Send us your calls to solikomitee-maja@systemli.org by 17 June 2025 so that we can publish all actions together.
After your actions, publish reports, pictures and videos on Instagram in collaboration with our @free.maja account.
Free Maja goes Pride
We are also calling on people to take part in the CSD and Pride demonstrations before and after the days of action and to make Maja’s cause visible there. You can find templates to print flyers and a banner at: basc.news/aktionskit-unterstue….
Bring Maja back home! No extraditions to Hungary! Freedom for all antifas!

I never understood why anyone ever trusted politicians to do the right thing.
