"Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem announcing Wednesday evening that the group will not agree to give up its weapons, its land, or its right to resist"
"Since Israel is actively occupying parts of southern Lebanon, launching airstrikes nearly daily, and launching ground raids against the south, it is unsurprising that Hezbollah isn’t willing to unilaterally disarm"

Chester: Same-sex penguin couple hatch rare chick at zoo.

Scampi and Flounder, a pair of male penguins, "stepped in to help raise one of two eggs laid by another penguin pair, Wotsit and Peach", the zoo said.

The chicks are said to now be days away from taking to the water for the first time.

Bird experts at the zoo carefully shared the eggs between the two nests to help give both chicks the best possible start and to help improve the chances of successful fledging.

#anti #trump #humour

Sur le front de l’Ukraine, c’est pas plus reluisant qu’un frigidaire vide un lendemain de party. Trump voulait régler ça en quelques jours, genre “Salut, c’est moi, on signe où ?”. Résultat ? Il a fait des câlins à Poutine, il a menacé l’Ukraine comme un ado qui menace de bouder, il a rêvé d’un cessez-le-feu… et six mois plus tard, on retient juste une chose : Poutine s’en balance et fait ce qu’il veut.

On dirait même qu’il entend pas Trump parler. Peut-être qu’il capte juste les aigus, comme un chien ? Hier, Trump a jappé au téléphone avec Poutine… et le Russe a répondu en lâchant une attaque massive de drones, comme pour dire : “Ouais ouais, continue de jaser, moi j’ai des trucs sérieux à faire.”

Quand Trump s’impatiente, Poutine lui lance une balle de laine, comme à un chat obèse pour qu’il se fatigue. Un coup Trump grogne et joue au dur, un coup il veut inviter Poutine au G7 pour recréer le G8, comme s’ils allaient faire un BBQ entre potes. Pendant ce temps-là, Vlad s’amuse comme un gamin qui a trouvé le bouton “Reset” d’une console.

My final point was that there is no difference between any of them. I am not on a side because I do not see them as different. They are all happy to murder people without a second thought. People die for someone else's ideology. We are 100% as barbaric as the Spanish invading South America. Nothing has changed. I can be in Russia, China, the US, Iran, France - it does not matter. You sit in the town and meet lots of great people whose leaders are animals that kill without a care.

Folks, maybe you are aware of the matter today regarding some rancid behavior toward Mastodon treasure @GottaLaff. Well, not going to comment on the details. You can easily find it.

What is heartening is the overwhelming degree of support for Laffy, demonstrating the collective power of Mastodon to pull together to defend valued members of our community.

This episode just underscores that what we have built here is precious. Here, we the people, are in control not the billionaires.

Hawaii also had a higher literacy rate than the US, and Europe before colonization, the banning of our culture and language, erasure of our history, and ghettoization. Hawai'ians were also often bi- or trilingual, and world-renowned diplomats. cechambers.com/hawaii-highest-…
In a newspaper article published in 1869, 3 Native Hawailan historian reported that Hawai'i was the only Pacific goverment to be represented at an Exposition in Paris. Granted its first constitution in 1840 by King Kamehameha III, books of law, newspapers, agricultural products, Bibles, textbooks, as well as other examples of “Giilized” accomplishments were exhibited. European visitors to the Paris Exposition were, for the most part, ruled by monarchs and only their highborn were privy to excellent educations. _Faced with their failed_preconceptions about_Hawaf,_some exclaimed:

"Israel’s Channel 14 reported on Wednesday that the current proposal includes a side letter from Trump"
"The document would give Israel the green light to "renew the fire if our demands with regards to the disarmament of Hamas and the exile of its leaders are not met""
"Israel would be able to interpret, define and make a judgment call on these terms"
Like I said in a thread, this is no ceasefire. It's just theatre.

Secret Trump letter would let Israel resume war despite ceasefire: Report

Israel is reportedly seeking written assurances from US President Donald Trump that it will be allowed to resume military operations in Gaza if its demands are not met, even as talks over a 60-day ceasefire continue.

Really frustrated with #Windows 11 not wanting to install the pending update it keeps reminding me I need to install. Evidently this particular #cumulative #update is problematic (v. 24H2 - KB5060829) given the proliferation of YouTube video 'fixes' that abound (which haven't fixed anything).
How about Microsoft pushes an update instead? Nope. It's the user's burden. I hate Windows. Unfortunately it's whats running my wife's laptop and I need to keep that machine updated and secure (as I type this on my #Linux machine.)

Haaretz: Ben Gvir and Smotrich are meeting today to push for a "joint path" to sabotage the prisoner exchange deal.
But what they don’t realize is without them, it wouldn’t even happen.
For two years, we’ve been hearing the same recycled headlines, the same empty promises about “deals” and “progress.”
They’re all liars. Every single one of them. And their biggest liar? Trump.

[Fix] KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland - tablet pen suddenly not changing pointer position

Symptoms


Stylus taps are registered as well as button presses (on the last cursor position). Cursor doesn't change position.
"Test tablet" in "Drwaing Tablet" KDE settings only displays Stylus release events.
X11 works.
Finger touch still works.

Solution


Rename or delete ~/.config/kcminputrc, or remove config section related to "Pen" (not tested). Deleting the config resets other mouse pointer settings like speed, device enabled/disabled and calibrations.
Then log out and log back in.

Precursor


Testing pen in "Test tablet" section.

Other attempted fixes


Log out and back in - Fail
Reboot - Fail
Moving cursor on login screen and during login process - Fail
Insert and remove pen again - Fail
Shutdown and disconnect battery (in UEFI) - Fail
Removing kcminputrc after diffing with Timeshift snapshot and filtering for interesting files with grep - Pass

System info


OS: Arch Linux x64
Host: Lenovo ThinkPad L390 Yoga
Kernel: 6.12.30-1-lts
DE: Plasma 6.3.5

Age of Invention: All Fired Up


#energy #industry #history

...we need to see things from the vantage point of the 1580s, when we find the first recorded attempts in England to develop the smokeless coal. There were at least two main ways to go about it. One was to try to remove its soot-inducing, sulphurous impurities, which we’ll come back to another time when I set out the story of coke. But the other, much older, and more tried-and-tested method was to add a material to counteract them. At Europe’s greatest coal-mining region in the sixteenth century, near Liège in present-day Belgium, the locals there had long crushed the coal into a dust and mixed it with some wettened loamy soil or mud, working it into balls or briquettes before leaving them to dry, creating a fuel that burned more regularly and completely, releasing far less soot.

What follows is, effectively, the untold story of the coal briquette — and a solution to the centuries-old mystery of why it failed to catch on.

Es difícil quedarse solo con una frase de Mariano Rajoy, pero han optado por ofrecer como estampación el clásico "muy españoles y mucho españoles"

Es difícil quedarse solo con una frase de Mariano Rajoy, pero han optado por ofrecer como estampación el clásico "muy españoles y mucho españoles" Feijóo anuncia la incorporación futura de Alberto Nadal a la dirección económica del PP mientras quita competencias a Elías Bendodo

El PP ha inaugurado este viernes su XXI Congreso Nacional que se celebrará este fin de semana en Madrid, un encuentro en el que los 'populares' reelegirán a Alberto Núñez Feijóo como presidente. Como en otros cónclaves, los 'populares' venden 'menchandising' como camisetas o sudaderas, en este caso con frases de Pedro Sánchez como “fachosfera” o “son las cinco y todavía no he comido”, pero también algunas expresiones de expresidentes del PP como el “muy españoles y mucho españoles” de Rajoy.

El recinto en el que tendrá lugar la cumbre de los 'populares', ubicado en las instalaciones de la Feria de Madrid, está divido en cuatro grandes estancias, la primera de ellas, un espacio amplio que recibe a todos los participantes con múltiples 'stands' informativos colocados bajo señales de diferentes plazas temáticas: las ideas, el encuentro, la libertad o la juventud, son alguna de ellas.En esos puestos, los asistentes pueden encontrar desde información hasta 'merchandising' del propio Congreso pero también de la fundación que preside José María Aznar, Faes, las Nuevas Generaciones del PP o el Partido Popular Europeo, entre otros.

Los recuerdos disponibles para los asistentes van desde botellas y pulseras hasta camisetas y sudaderas personalizadas con palabras como “Fachosfera” o “Cambio”. Es difícil quedarse solo con una frase de Mariano Rajoy, pero han optado por ofrecer como estampación el clásico “muy españoles y mucho españoles”.

También está “son las cinco y no he comido”, en referencia a la frase utilizada por el presidente Pedro Sánchez el día que dio la rueda de prensa tras el informe de la UCO que apuntaba a su ex 'número tres' Santos Cerdán. También hay un atrevido “muchas cosas buenas empiezan por F”.
