The All-New Big Tech American School


#politics #education #society #GAFAM #lobotomy

Last week, we were sent a video of Emily Brownlee, a former high school teacher and mother of four, speaking before the Kansas State Department of Education. As a parent, teacher, and an Ambassador for ScreenStrong, Emily has deep firsthand insights into the impacts of digital technology on children’s health, well-being, and education.1

In just three minutes, she captured the educational damage that is happening in classrooms as digital technology takes over the school day.

"Ecology without class war is gardening"

Saw this on a sticker in the street in France. The original quote was "l'écologie sans lutte de classes c'est du jardinage"

ETA: quote attributed to Brazilian environmentalist and trade union leader Chico Mendes (1944–1988). In Portuguese: "Ecologia sem luta de classes é jardinagem".

Ce matin, j‘ai tondu l’herbe dans le jardin. Cette herbe que je croyais indescriptible mais dont je veux partager avec vous la description qu’en fait Victor Hugo dans l’Archipel de la Manche : « C’est l’herbe de partout… vous y trouverai des fétuques et des pâturins comme dans la première herbe venue, plus le cynodon pied-de-poule et la glycérie flottante, plus le brome mollet aux épillets en fuseau, plus le phalaris des Canaries, l’agrostide qui donne une teinture verte, l’ivraie ray-grass, le lupin jaune, la houlque, qui a de la laine sur sa tige, la flouve qui sent bon, l’amourette qui tremble, le souci pluvial, l’ail sauvage, dont la fleur est si douce et l’odeur si âcre, la fléole, le vulpin, dont l’épi semble une petite massue, le stipe, propre à faire des paniers, l’élyme utile à fixer les sables mouvants. … »
Je m’arrête là, ce n’est pas la dictée de Pivot mais je précise que la description continue, toute aussi détaillée concernant les fleurs et les insectes, aussi imagée et riche en vocabulaire. En lisant cela on s’aperçoit de l’effondrement de la connaissance qui ne concerne plus que les "zexperts". À l’époque (1883) ils n’avaient ni Google, ni Wikipédia mais ils savaient les choses. Une image vaut mille mots dit-on, mais à force d’en voir tant, on devient aveugle. Le siècle qui est le nôtre s’est enfoncé dans un gouffre d’ignorance. Il n’y a qu’à écouter les réponses d’élèves interrogés en micro-trottoir sur la manière qu’ils ont eu d’aborder les sujets de dissertation proposés pour leur dissertation de philo, pour constater le vide abyssal qui a envahi nos cervelles d’HPE « surdoués ».
À force d’images TikTok, on ne sait plus parler. L’appauvrissement du vocabulaire mène à des descriptions sommaires : ça va, ça/va pas, gentil/méchant, triste/gai, positif/négatif. Cette lecture réduite des problématiques entraîne une vision sommaire du monde d'où des grossièretés et des insultes, faute de moyen (d’expression). Résultat : on se poignarde dans la cour des écoles, on se bat en famille, on se défonce à mourir, ou l’on quitte la table des négociations parce qu’on s’y ennuie. La diplomatie ? La diplo quoi ? Toujours le même millier de mots répétés en boucle, ou larguer soudain un G9 pour rentrer chez soi en compagnie de sa bande de béotiens en bredouillant qu’on a « autre chose à faire », sous-entendu que de discuter avec des subalternes indécis et confus, des chefs de pseudo grands états, mais qu’on toise d’un regard méprisant…
Notre monde se précipite vers sa fin devant les caméras. Face à l’ignorance crasse des dictateurs, n’y a-t-il d’autre issue que d’espérer se faire promptement remplacer par une Intelligence Artificielle à qui l'on accorde tous les crédits ?
Nous vivons une ère ténébreuse qui ne s’éclaire la nuit que lorsque les missiles du dôme de fer interceptent roquettes / bombes longues portées venues de l’étranger…
Alors, j’ai replié le journal, et je suis retourné m’allonger dans l’herbe pour lire Victor l’exilé…

Establishment Democrats worked overtime to oppose progressive upstart Zohran Mamdani in New York City’s mayoral primary race
— and yet, claim to be baffled over why the Democratic Party is losing support, freshly ousted Democratic activist David Hogg said in a fiery post on Monday.
“The same establishment that is spending millions to destroy Zohran will say in a few months that we need to spend millions on polling and testing to win back young people.
Open your god damn eyes — it’s free,” Hogg wrote, the day before the primary election on Tuesday.
Indeed, like most major left-leaning candidates in the U.S., Mamdani is no stranger to attacks from establishment politicians and their donors.

Zohran Mamdani’s apparent victory late Tuesday night represented a sharp rebuke of the Democratic Party establishment

It represented, he said, the ascendance of a new Democratic coalition, one that prioritized the needs of the working class over those of the elite.
“We have won because New Yorkers have stood up for a city they can afford,” he said.
“A city where they can do more than just struggle. One where those who toil in the night can enjoy the fruits of their labor in the day.”

@mudflap Is that reason enough to be a soft, fucking, pussy suicidal? We have all gotten bullied in multiple ways. Those moments were and still are, opportunities to overcome and win not to surrender and die. It's unforgivable, it's weak and it's superficial.

Imagine caring that much about gaining the acceptance of people, especially people one never even met, that their negative, presumable opinions or attitudes causes one to prefer suicide. That is utter vanity and there may be a special place in hell for people that vain, weak and shallow. Who will take care of her foxes now that she never really cared about them in the first place? She just cared about what favorable opinions, that others had for her.

"Trapping AI" – Slight Update! 🌀

Activity in the "Trapping AI" project is accelerating: in just under a month, over 26 million requests have hit our tarpit URLs 🕳️. Vast volumes of meaningless content were devoured by AI crawlers — ruthless digital leeches that relentlessly scour and pillage the web, leaving no data untouched.

In the coming days, we’ll roll out a new layer of complexity — amplifying both the intensity and offensiveness of our approach. This escalation builds on fakejpeg, a tool developed by @pengfold.

🖼️ fakejpeg generates fake JPEGs on the fly. You "train" it with a collection of existing JPEGs, and once trained, it can produce an arbitrary number of things that look like real JPEGs — perfect for feeding aggressive web crawlers junk 🗑️.

Each new page spawns additional layers of meaningless text and dozens of links, dragging them ever deeper into the tarpit 🕳️.

High-resolution mapping reveals ocean carbon sink detail


image

Ocean acidification is detrimental to coral reefs

As atmospheric carbon dioxide levels continue to rise, the ocean plays a crucial role in helping to reduce the full impact of human-driven climate change by absorbing roughly a quarter of the carbon dioxide emitted by human activity. However, this uptake is far from uniform across the global ocean. A new satellite-based product can now map the ocean carbon sink at unprecedented resolution, offering unique insights into this highly variable and complex component of Earth’s climate system.

For decades, Route 3254 was used by Palestinians and Bedouins to reach the #Ad-Dhariya market. But the traffic bothered the #settlers, so the Apartheid Major General Avi Bluth set up a checkpoint on the road to the market and had some of the stalls destroyed. In order to spare about 1,000 settlers from waiting in line with Palestinians at a checkpoint, a market that serves tens of thousands of people is now being shut down.

Route 3254 in the southern #WestBank had never really attracted settler interest since it was paved in the late 1990s. But in recent weeks, settlers from the South Hebron Hills, led by the toxic head of the regional council, Eliram Azoulay, have launched a new campaign: "The Ad-Dhariya Market is a Security Threat". They handed the narrative off to their loyal allies at “Israel Hayom” newspaper, and they provided with a sensational headline: "Drugs, prostitution, and even weapons: Bedouin residents storm a criminal pirate market”.

But what really bothered the settlers was spelled out clearly in the opening paragraph of the article: "Massive traffic jams have been reported in the Hebron Hills area in recent days, due to thousands of Bedouin residents arriving at a pirate market operating between Eshkolot, Tene Omarim, and Ad-Dhahiriya. The nearby Meitar checkpoint could not handle the pressure, and traffic backed up at the few surrounding checkpoints, which were never intended to accommodate such a volume of vehicles". Link to the “Israel Hayom” article is in the comments.

How did these traffic jams were created? For decades, the Ad-Dhahiriya market has served many Bedouin residents from the negev, who come there to shop. Recently, due to a consumer boycott by the Bedouin communities protesting rampant racism in Beersheba, even more people have begun shopping in the market. At the same time, following October 7th, Israel banned the entry of Palestinian workers. As a result, several dozen Palestinians, trying to make a living, set up roadside stalls along Route 3254. All of this has led to traffic congestion at certain times of day - and that is what upset the settlers from the settlement of Tene Omarim.

Now let us zoom out in order to understand what actually happened there. In the early 1980s, two isolated settlements Eshkolot and Tene Omarim - were established in the southwestern Hebron Hills. Both were built on lands that were looted from the residents of the village of Ad-Dhahiriya by declaring them as "state land". Although these two settlements are relatively small, with a combined population of around 1,700 residents today, the area that the state looted and handed over to them is above 16,000 dunams!

As part of the policy aimed at creating "Jewish continuity", Highway 3254 was paved in the 1990s in order to connect the two settlements, which lie about five kilometers apart. The road is effectively branching out Highway 325, which links the Meitar checkpoint to the settlement of Tene Omarim and was originally intended to continue on to Ad-Dhahiriya. However, the section leading to Ad-Dhahiriya was blocked by the army already in 2001 and has remained closed ever since.

And now we return to the present. The Meitar checkpoint is the checkpoint used by Bedouins that are heading to shop in Ad-Dhahiriya. Meaning, the settlers from Tene Omarim, the residents of Ad-Dhahiriya riding to the checkpoint, and the Bedouins that are coming from the Negev to shop in the market, all use the same road. Now, settlers occasionally find themselves standing in traffic - and even worse, standing in traffic with Arabs! And so, they concocted a story about drugs, prostitution, weapons, and nonsense.

At this point, Major General Avi Bluth entered the picture. On June 8, the Facebook page of the head of the Mount Hebron Regional Council reported that Bluth met with settlers who had "demanded solutions". Two days later, the council head announced that a solution had been implemented: a permanent checkpoint was installed at the junction of Highways 325 and 3254, blocking Bedouin access to the road leading to Ad-Dhahiriya. At the same time, bulldozers were sent to demolish the stalls that were built along the road. Links to the head of the Mount Hebron Regional Council posts are in the comments.

And what about the Bedouins who still want to reach Ad-Dhahiriya? For now, they can take a long detour of several dozen kilometers and approach the town from the north, via Highway 60. But who knows how long that option will remain open. Sooner or later, settlers will likely start complaining that there are too many "Arabs" on Highway 60 as well - and then that route will be closed to them also.

This is how a market that served tens of thousands of Palestinians on both sides of the Green Line - for livelihood and shopping - was destroyed. A gift to the settlers, just so they can drive without traffic jams from the settlement of Tene Omarim to the Meitar checkpoint. After all, they were promised "quality of life”.

“I think that Earth 2024 means stupidity,” Kathy said. We all laughed. It was a time when the leaders were both clowns and dangerous. It was a new age on Earth after a pandemic when the stupid were put into positions of power with the hope that stupidity would be the new path to the future. It didn’t work and caused World War Three. They did everything backwards. It was as if they went to stupid school and learned to carry out every activity in a way where it didn’t work and not only that, came back to hurt them.
