@davidallengreen points out that when we think about how international law is faring in the current global political situation, there's a big difference between compliance & enforcement.... while (as Harold Koh famously pointed out) most countries follow international law most of the time, when a state chooses not to (or even to acknowledge its salience) we find ourselves in a world where sovereign self-restraint has (dangerously) evaporated!

Yarmouth gits wot Yarmouth voted for. When not advocating summary military execution for non-violent protest, he patrols the streets of Yarmouth looking for turkish barbours to harrass. He enthusiastically greeted the MV Ruby carrying contaminated Russian ammonium nitrate 200 tonnes of which was dumped in the North Sea just outslde our 12 mile limit. He's the County sewage outlet straight onto Yarmouth beach.

Justices Let Parents Opt Children Out of Classes With L.G.B.T.Q. Storybooks

Paywall Bypass Link archive.is/fcUgW

Public schools in Maryland must allow parents with religious objections to withdraw their children from classes in which storybooks with L.G.B.T.Q. themes are discussed, the Supreme Court ruled on Friday.

The vote was 6 to 3, with the court’s liberal members in dissent.

The case extended a winning streak for claims of religious freedom at the court, gains that have often come at the expense of other values, notably gay rights.

The case concerned a new curriculum adopted in 2022 for prekindergarten through the fifth grade by the Montgomery County Public Schools, Maryland’s largest school system.

The storybooks included “Pride Puppy,” an alphabet primer about a family whose puppy gets lost at a Pride parade; “Love, Violet,” about a girl who develops a crush on her female classmate; “Born Ready,” about a transgender boy; and “Uncle Bobby’s Wedding,” about a same-sex union.

At first, the school system gave parents notice when the storybooks were to be discussed, along with the opportunity to have their children excused. But school administrators soon eliminated the advance notice and opt-out policy, saying it was hard to administer, led to absenteeism and risked “exposing students who believe the storybooks represent them and their families to social stigma and isolation.”

Israelis getting creative:
"Reports have said that Oxycodone – the controversial drug behind the opioid epidemic in the US – is not only being smuggled in flour bags, but also crushed into powder and mixed into the flour itself"
Before Oct 7th, I probably would have dismissed this article as BS. Not now. I now see this as entirely possible.

Greens candidate Hannah Thomas was injured by police while peacefully protesting on public land outside a company that provides weapon parts to Israel.

A brutal use of excessive force has left Hannah seriously injured - needing surgery and risks losing sight in her eye.

The police and Minns government choose to protect weapons companies over people. SHAME

The US Is Reluctant To Drop Its “Economic Bunker Buster” On China, India, & Russia

It’s unrealistic to expect the US to maintain 500% tariffs on China and India for their purchase of Russian oil, which would also ruin its trade talks with them and derail the Ukrainian peace process.

Stupid people equate wealth with cash.

Jeff Bozo, is wealthy because he owns a good portion of Amazon. If he were to "pay his fair share" he would have to give up his ownership and put people out of work, shut down operations, and discontinue many services.

Look at the 1.1% you claim is his tax rate, which is pure bullshit by the way, and figure out how much money that is. Do you pay that on your total wealth?

Jealousy and greed do you no good at all.

Gens de Mastodon, j'ai besoin de vous. Ou plutôt, ma fille a besoin de vous. Dans le cadre de son master en sociologie, son groupe de travail propose une enquête sur “les effets des différents modèles éducatifs sur les individus”. Ce n'est pas très long, et elles ont besoin de 500 réponses (270 atteintes pour l'heure). Si en plus vous vous genrez plutôt au masculin et êtes à la retraite, vous êtes le plein cœur de cible : c'est la population qui leur manque le plus.

Just saw a video of a #white #American girl "Explaining to her white American boyfriend how the man-or-bear thing works" where she asks him if he would rather fight a bear, or shower in a prison shower, and he goes grey and goes "oh no I get a horrible feeling in my tummy thinking of being trapped in a prison shower with those thugs!" And she says that's good that he's feeling now how women feel all the time and all I can think is... Mate that is just your #racism, your #idea that the "thugs"...

Microsoft is moving antivirus programs from running at kernel level

"Weston also hinted that these changes could also affect kernel-level anti-cheat mechanisms used in games, Easy Anti-Cheat for example. It could be a thing of the past, which is welcome news"

ghacks.net/2025/06/27/microsof…

i believe it when i see it. its very likely going to end up with a kernel level API (like eBPF) with which the AV/ACs can interact with to still get kernel level access without being able to fuck up too badly by being incompetent

A new adventure on the International Space Station

Video: 00:04:13

Daniel Neuenschwander, ESA head of Space and Robotic Exploration, explains that Ignis mission will include an ambitious technological and scientific programme with several experiments led by ESA and proposed by the Polish space industry.

On 26 June 2025, ESA project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski from Poland and his crewmates arrived to the International Space Station on the Axiom-4 mission (Ax-4).

The Polish project astronaut is the second of a new generation of European astronauts to fly on a commercial human spaceflight opportunity with Axiom Space.

We like the way Homer presents his arguments, because it avoids some of the rather tired approaches of FOSS advocates. He assigns financial value to the risks, using the established measurement of Return on Security Investment [PDF]. He uses the Crowdstrike outage from last July as a comparison. For instance, what if a US administration instructed Microsoft to refuse service to everyone in certain countries or even regions?
\
He tries to put some numbers on this, and they are worryingly large. He looks at estimated corporate Microsoft 365 usage worldwide, and how relatively few vendors offer pre-installed Linux systems. He considers the vast market share of Android on mobile devices compared to everything else, with the interesting comparison that there are more mobile phone owners than toothbrush owners. However, every Android account is all but tied to at least one Google account – another almost unavoidable US dependency.

This isn’t just about birthright citizenship

It’s about removing the guardrails of democracy.

SCOTUS just ruled courts may only block policies for plaintiffs—not everyone affected. The opinion warns that the prior approach “lacks a limiting principle and would make nationwide injunctions the rule rather than the exception”

This guts our ability to stop harmful federal actions quickly and leaves rights scattered
