The "dictator's dilemma" pits a dictator's desire to create social stability by censoring public communications in order to prevent the spread of anti-regime messages with the dictator's need to know whether powerful elites are becoming restless and plotting a coup:

What Books did inspire you for your gardening?
My garden has 3 core functions. Recreation and play, Growing vegetables and fruits, and givin nature more room. The so called Controlled Wildernes. I Love to see all the different species the are coming by. But i always want to make it better, especially the combination of space for family and nature. Ive got inspired by the book The Garden Jungle from Dave Goulson. It just gave me more ideas and motivation to protect the smal animals, and make the garden usefull for more. But what about you? What books, articles, documentary etc, did inspire or would give me some ideas to let nature have more space in af garden?

I wouldn't say any book, but the news. Our planet is failing quickly, with no concerted effort to stop it. My zone has had massive collapses in insect and wildlife year over year, and I aim to help combat that as much as possible by planting native plants, providing extra fruit and vegetables for the wildlife (I keep a decoy garden for them), and doing it all as resource conscious as possible. Nothing but good things can come from having even a few native flowering plants around for bees and hummingbirds, and going a bit of an extra mile to compost to keep the good insects that contribute to that process happy and expanding their colonies.

FedEx is getting in on the war crime money.

"Belgian peace organization Vredesactie filed a criminal complaint on June 26, accusing FedEx of violating international and national law by facilitating the transfer of US-made F-35 components to Israel via Liege Airport. "

"The shipments, linked to Lockheed Martin, arrived between 20 and 24 June from US military hubs and were marked for final delivery to Nevatim air base, from which Israeli jets have taken off to bomb Gaza and, more recently, Iranian territory."
"The complaint, lodged under Belgian criminal law, claims the shipments constitute “punishable cooperation in war crimes,” referencing the Arms Trade Treaty and Belgium’s export control regulations."

“'This transit is in violation of the Arms Trade Treaty,' said Hans Lammerant of Vredesactie, 'and constitutes punishable cooperation in war crimes under Belgian criminal law.'”

I like and encourage encryption, especially with communications.

But the thought process below is worth considering when it comes to encrypting your own storage.

@gabriel fundamentally, the issue is that the data requires code execution to access, and that code will require the key material.

A drive that allowed you to approve access levels/modes, and used bio-metric to confirm your identity, I think would be closer to the ideal.

I had the chance to talk with an Offensive Security penetration team, and they more or less told me that, their time in Africa made them realize that, in a physical environment, the person will always be the weak link. (aka rubber hose attack)

And, personally, if I sit down and think about it, I buy very little privacy or protection from encrypting. But, I lose performance, and make the possibility of losing access to my own data much higher.

Prior to the war with Iran, all polls concluded that he would fail to secure the seats necessary to form a government. The poll claims he would win 62 seats.

The war with Iran has increased the popularity of both #Netanyahu & #Likud Party, while decreasing support for the war in #Gaza

Israeli settlers went on a rampage in the town of Kufr Malek, northeast of Ramallah, killing three Palestinians. The attack is the latest in an escalating wave of settler pogroms against Palestinian communities between the Jordan Valley and Ramallah.

Affaire Loïc Sécher (2003–2011)

Les faits :
Accusé de viol par une adolescente.

Condamné à 16 ans de prison, malgré l’absence de preuve physique.

Après 7 ans, la prétendue victime reconnaît avoir menti.

Il est innocenté et libéré.

Au Canada :
Les témoignages sans corroboration sont considérés avec prudence, surtout pour des condamnations lourdes.

Le contre-interrogatoire aurait peut-être mis en lumière des incohérences dès le procès initial.

Il est souvent plus difficile de condamner une personne au Canada ou aux USA qu'en France, surtout dans des cas où les preuves sont circonstancielles ou ambiguës. En France, on fait davantage confiance à l’intime conviction du juge ou des jurés, tandis qu’en Amérique du Nord, on insiste sur une prudence extrême pour éviter toute erreur judiciaire.

I'm trying not to to be an asshole about it. She knows my stance and I'm not budging. That said, I don't throw it in her face. In fact, I only told her once that I won't do the vow renewal until she quits. We have an otherwise perfect marriage.

We haven't had the vape conversation, but I'm not in favor of that either. You don't quit drinking by switching from beer to vodka. I honestly don't know how I would feel about her switching to vape. I hate the smell of her addiction but that's not my biggest issue. I hate the effect on her health but that's not the complete picture either. I hate the concept of a smoking addiction. It's not my identity, and I don't want it to be the identity of us as a couple. We are blue collar AF, but I still feel like her smoking diminishes us.

I used to be proud of her for quitting and staying quit. Now I'm not anymore.

That identity thing seems counterproductive. The way addictions works, you generally kind of stay addicted indefinitely even if you manage to quit and stay off the substance forever. And in contrast to beer vs. vodka, vapes are healthier than cigarettes - even if that doesn't actually change anything for you, it's definitely better for her.

Facebook started out as a college kiddo platform. Then rapidly aging females started creating accounts to helicopter mom over their kiddos away at uni. By 2011, FB had become a service for middle aged Females to show off status with photos of grand kids, vacations, newly bought houses, and then of themselves.

Younger females opted for Instagram, which, itself, as become almost a soft core version of OnlyFans and (P)orn Hub.
