Poll: Overwhelming majority of Jewish "Israelis" share genocidal belief there are ‘no innocent people in #Gaza’ A Hebrew University poll shows an overwhelming majority of Jewish "Israelis" agree with the genocidal idea that there are “no innocents in Gaza.”
Of course the Supreme Court would, they’re bought and paid for. The Court allowed the Trump administration to deport eight men who had been held for over a month under guard at a U.S. military base in Djibouti. The ruling clears the way to send them to war-torn South Sudan, despite the fact bsky.app/profile/altnps.bsky.s… - From resistance team of US Natl Park Svc 500+ char posts not resent Unaffiliated w/ AltNPS - #AltNPS #Coup #Activism #NationalParkService #FederalGovernment #USpol #Trump
I have been using a lot more apps from F-Droid store and oh there is so much to fucking love about #freesoftware. Yes, I understand that sometimes it may lack some flashy stuff and accessibility has a long way to go, judging by what blind folks say here. I wanted to make a thread of appreciation because they make me feel good. Also if you are in the US you may need some feel-good stuff now 🧵
I cannot stress enough how IMPORTANT it is for me for the software not to fuck with my settings once I establish them. If I ever need to bury a treasure, you can be sure as fuck that along the silver and gold, there is going to be a plate with my #KOreader settings engraved in it
What's more, if by any chance they do something that may remotely fuck with your settings, you can bet your ass that there is going to be a warning that the version may fuck your settings, along with detailed instructions on how to unfuck the settings. Maybe even a legacy option that will say: "you, yes you weirdo, this is the option to keep that obscure box that Nobody but You uses activated"
2. They generally get better with every new version. Should updates come, its for making cool stuff that people may actually like. I use the word "may" because this is Mastodon. I am looking at the news channel for Read You, an RSS reader for Android that I LOVE, and the reactions are full of hearts and stars
3. They try not to leave people behind. If my smartwatch brand decides to sunset the support, I am fine, I am cool, because I carefully looked in Gadgetbridge to make sure their free app covered the device beforehand. Folks, always check Gadgetbridge before buying #wearablesgadgetbridge.org/
4. They do not scam you. Ever had to download an app from the Play Store because you needed, oh I don't know, a sensor reading app or something? There are a lot of garbage apps out there. In F-Droid, you can find many of them for free. No seriously, check F-Droid from time to time
5. Forking being possible. Even if an app goes in a direction some people does not like, there's always the possibility of forking it. This is not only a nice thing, it is the ultimate guarantee to de-incentivize fuck-arounds as much as possible
One of the most tragic things is that so many people that will be harmed by the Big Death Bill will be completely unaware about what just happened until it’s way too late and they can’t see a doctor or get a hospital bed in their time of need.
This is what I thought of, seeing the jolly red, white, and blue shirts and smiles of every senior in the store this morning. I want to be sad, but I am choosing not to be. At some point even my pity demands a limit.

really curious what Microsoft is thinking. They are preparing to release the cod backlog into gamepass. The games are already there to buy. They have all the same exploit and this is known for years. Not patching it is one thing but not patching and rereleasing is a whole different story
If anybody has any time to burn that Call of Duty thing might be a fun time waste to investigate.
It looks like the same vuln is present in multiple versions of CoD, has never been patched even in supported releases, has no CVE etc. It’s just been ignored while customers get owned.
Since players who cheat get banned, and a common complaint is that accounts were banned for cheating when the user didn't cheat, I'd be interested to see where this goes.
"The game publisher took down only the Microsoft Store and Game Pass version of “Call of Duty: WWII” because they were different versions of the game than listed on Steam, and contained an old flaw that had been patched on other versions of the game"
Did the guy in charge of reminding on-prem Exchange customers that they are unloved children mistake the steam version for a cloud product?
I'm surprised this isn't more common. Video game programmers aren't known for their security obsession. There must be tons of vulnerabilities in games.
On macOS this is mitigated by the fact that games don't need very many permissions to run, so the worst any attacker is likely to do to a Mac game is mine crypto until you reboot. But most games run on Windows or Linux, neither of which enforces restrictions like macOS does…

trump's Big Bloated Bill passed the house. it's still not entirely clear how much debt this is going to add, by the time everything gets sorted out. i would definitely prefer single-issue bills.
but as i've said before nothing gets done in govenrment without a bunch of little crony favors and pork to keep everyone happy. so if this is what they claim they need to deport 50 million illegals, we'll see how it turns out. that is a challenge
as far as people being dropped from medicaid and SNAP benefits, i'm pretty confident the only people getting dropped from it shouldn't have been on it in the first place. so no real concerns there
a lot of what the dems are crying about regarding these people being dropped is actually illegals receiving welfare benefits, and this is critically important to stop, immediately.
Haselnusshack, mit etwas Öl rösten gehackte schwarze Oliven braten gekochte Nudeln, z.B. Fussili (wichtig ist, dass die Nudeln so klein sind, dass man sie mit dem Löffel essen kann) ordentliche Portion Parmesan o.Ä.
Alles mischen, mit Löffel essen damit Oliven und Nusshack auch zusammen mit Nudeln und Käse in den Mund kommen. Schmeckt ziemlich gut und ich liebe die Textur.
Mit dem Öl vom Braten/Rösten und der Feuchtigkeit der Nudeln (sie sollten nicht so lange getrocknet sein, dass sie zusammenkleben) geht das schon. Ist aber schon Teil der Textur, dass es trockener ist im Vergleich zu einem Nudelgericht mit einer richtigen Sauce. Hab aber auch schon öfter eine halbe Portion Nudeln ohne alles gegessen (Kochwasser sollte dann gut gesalzen sein), wenn man sich das überhaupt nicht vorstellen kann ist dieses Gericht vielleicht nix für einen.
Das wird so schnell nicht passieren. Der ist zwar schnell an seiner Belastungsgrenze und ist braucht dann Erholung. Aber mein lieber Herr Gesangsverein, der gibt nicht so schnell den Löffel ab.

I got completely annihilated on Korean rice wine once. Tested like slightly sweet water. Ice cold, very refreshing. By glass number four, I was at stage 2 snot bubble. Something like 24% ABV and I was drinking water glasses of it
It is a little bit like vodka. It is served ice cold, tastes like mildly sweet water and comes in a beer-style bottle so people who don't know what it is drink way too much of it too fast and then get hit like a hammer.
Now I kinda want to try soju. I have yet to meet a drink with any appreciable amount of alcohol in it that doesn't taste like paint thinner smells to me. The only way I've ever been able to "not taste the alcohol" is if there's barely any in the drink.
If that's your metric just drink "flavored fortified wine" aka bum my wine like MD 20/20. It's really high alcohol content and super sweet to mask the poor quality.
I've tried wines like that before. I apparently have that gene where you super taste bitter and it just tasted like flat LaCroix mixed with paint thinner.
That's gotta be a different gene, bourbon and rye taste like bitter wood to me (because of tannins from the cask aging) instead of the boozy vanilla that many people claim it tastes like, yet (decent) vodka tastes completely neutral to me. But I do believe that some people perceive alcohol itself as bitter while others do not.
Do you dislike bitter flavors in general, like coffee, tea, or salad?
I probably won't be able to tolerate it then sadly. I'm super sensitive to bitter flavors that's seemingly why alcohol is always so unpleasant to me. I've tried so many drinks that even friends who barely drink at all say they can hardly taste the alcohol that all tasted just vile to me. Thanks though!
Can you elaborate on that? I've never seen anything about people adding water or other mixers into their sake (except the rare case of sake cocktails, which are definitely not the default way of drinking sake).
That said, I usually add water when I drink sake, but I do that because that's what I do with most of my alcoholic beverages; I never got the impression that this is actually the normal way of drinking it.
Yeah, just a few ml to take the edge off - it's not even about the alcohol for me (I happily sip 63% ABV rum if it's the good stuff), but about the unusual sake-specific flavor. I could probably sip a milder sake as-is, but we don't exactly have a huge amount of choice where I live.
Kinda sounds like it's just something you do, which isn't a bad thing in itself, but you wrote that as if it's the standard way to do it.
I'm mostly working off magazine articles, blog posts and books like David Wondrich's "Imbibe!". Most of the time, a simple web search with terms like "how to drink [beverage]" will yield results. e.g. for single malt whisky you can easily find articles and lengthy forum discussions over how much, if any, water to add, and plenty of articles write about what temperature to drink sake at and how to make hot sake. Though it's always possible that something is fairly common in Japan that western bloggers are not aware of.

The 911 "controlled demolition" BS is so tiresome... I took the time to sum up the obvious to debunk this BS: NO EXPLOSIVES means NO EXPLOSIVES!
Absolutely none were required to bring down the WTC, once those jumbo jets hit them!
I have no idea how people think they would have held up. There's a mysterious belief in the infinite resistance of stuff that was excellent 1960s engineering, but not more.
As for WTC 7, it had been burning for hours, with no sprinklers or anything. Then was shaken up by the horrendous shock of the WTC 1 & 2 collapsing, which damaged several buildings in the area so badly that they had to destroy them, in the aftermath. First, the penthouse fell into the inside of the building, showing that the internal structure had collapsed. Then the entire structure fell in on itself. Again, with ZERO evidence of explosives. So yes, logic dictates that it collapsed on its own.
Not that hard to believe.
Once you've eliminated the IMPOSSIBLE, you have to accept what remains, no matter how improbable.
People just WANT to blame it on the US government, even when the accusation is absurd: it didn't make any sense that the government would coordinate with terrorists to let them fly planes into the WTC after rigging the buildings with some magical, undetectable explosives that worked in reverse, i.e. top to bottom, starting exactly where the planes had hit, then exploding floor after floor with those magical explosives to ... do do what? Lower the resistance of each floor, which was already at virtually zero?
So how d the "controlled demolition" nutters think those explosives were installed? At what time? How did they avoid security?
Would have required hundreds of workers. No whistleblowers? A perfect government operation with no screw-ups and no records?
How did they hide the bombs and the cables?
What magic did they use?
The conspiracy idiots keep talking about thermite, which is NOT an explosive! Could NEVER have had the observed effect.
For what reason would they launch the controlled demolition? The airplanes were already entirely enough terrorism. The building collapse was totally not necessary.
It is infinitely much easier to just admit that the building collapsed under its own weight...
The ONLY objection I've seen is "I don't believe that's possible".
But we saw it happen!
There are so many things that seem totally impossible, but are real.
Get a gigantic pile of metal weighing 400 tons off the ground just by pushing a bit of air... that's absolutely impossible! Yet we got used to it.
But gigantic buildings collapsing after a catastrophic attack .. that's where they draw the line for their absolute disbelief and they need some MAGIC FAIRY DUST to destroy the building rather than ... it's own mass 🙄
It was only a matter of time before this happened. This government is falling apart and it's all it's own fault for standing for nothing more than the Rich.
Did Labour really think all these MPs they kicked out or silenced would just sit around and take it without doing something themselves?

This week i had a couple of conversations about #Gaza with well-meaning, nice people in which it transpired that they still knew virtually nothing about things that happened before Oct 7.
This factsheet, by the Independent Jewish Voice of Canada, gives a really good overview.
Let’s keep on sharing and informing others. So many here in Europe continue to know very little.

Kaitlynn Milne says her mother is usually always up first thing in the morning, hours before the rest of the family. She enjoys being productive in the quiet hours around sunrise. It’s an especially optimal time to do yard work, when the rest of her New Orleans neighborhood still sleeps and she can count on peacefully completing chores.
Gardening and rearranging the shed is how an average morning would go for Mandonna “Donna” Kashanian, a 64-year-old Iranian mother, wife, home cook, parent-teacher association (PTA) member and lifelong community service volunteer.
“She always says: ‘I’ve already done most of my day before y’all even wake up,’ complaining at us,” said Kaitlynn, 32. It was always done with love, she says, as her mother adores taking care of others and would wake up every morning excited to do just that.
But the morning of Sunday, 22 June, didn’t go like every other morning. In the early hours, while her husband, Russell Milne, slept inside the house, Kashanian was approached in her yard by plainclothes men who identified themselves as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents.
@ruralgloom Thanks so much for the journey with your spoken word. I missed a chance to say how I wish I could have seen you and my Dearly Departed Dad at a pub one evening, and to take bets as to whether you'd get more than one story per hour as he grilled you for every minute detail of every tale ❤
honestly i do not like having anyone else work on my car. i'm tempted to get under it and inspect it to see if they did anything stupid when i had it in for the alignment
“We’re not an island of strangers; we’re an island that’s suffering. We need homes and lives we can actually afford, not rip-off bills we pay every month to a tiny elite bathing in cash. We need our money spent on public services, not forever wars.
“In 2029, the choice will be stark: socialism or barbarism.
“Billionaires already have three parties fighting for them. It’s time the rest of us had one.”
Weigel and his text-buddy (link below) are both chickenshits, but his text-buddy is right. The "groups" are in fact the party's Achilles' heel.
Keeping the occupants of the "Big Tent" distracted and divided and focused on lobbying instead of organizing is how establishment Dems and their veal pen friends protect capital. That is, roughly speaking, their role in the current political system. When they can no longer accomplish that, capital will abandon them, and they know it.
Broad-based solidarity movements threaten Dems every bit as much as they do the GOP.
That's why they freak out so hard when somebody like Mamdani (or Obama!) comes along.
It's why they let the GOP drive the news cycle with a never-ending stream of wedge issues that keep tearing at their coalition.
It's why they spend so much more time talking about what they're going to say than they spend actually saying anything.
It's why they love to do loopy means-tested triple-bank-shot monstrosities instead of picking a straightfoward way to improve people's lives and then organizing around it.
It's why rotating villains like Manchin and Sinema get offered the occasional carrot, but are never EVER threatened with the stick.
It's why the riggedness of the economy cannot possibly be acknowledged, and more generally why injustices can only ever be vague abstractions to be addressed in some glorious golden future, never today.
Because who knows when a particular injustice might serve as a rallying point.
Sigh...
This isn't useful information anymore, really. The so-called "sixth" duopoly has already failed. The Democratic and Republican Parties as we've known them all these years are both terminal and close to the end. Whatever happens next will be different enough to require a different response.
It's just that the system is so big and ponderous that even at the astonishingly rapid rate thing are going, it will take at another cycle or two to actually collapse.
But it's still worth mentioning, as a reminder that one way and another "the groups" represent most of the country.
Ordinary people could quickly and easily destroy either or both of the parties, if they managed to reach an agreement about how to do it.

Joe Rogan Slams Trump Immigration Raids as ‘Insane’
Rogan, a vocal supporter of Trump, appeared visibly frustrated while discussing the increased frequency of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids.
“There’s two things that are insane,” Rogan said. “One is the targeting of migrant workers. Not cartel members, not gang members, not drug dealers. Just construction workers.”
“Showing up in construction sites, raiding them. Gardeners. Like, really?”
A US citizen is suing the federal government for $1 million after allegedly being unlawfully arrested by immigration officers while filming an ICE raid.
