Per cert, està estudiat que les notícies falses tenen milers i milions de cops més impacte que el desmentit i els fets reals.

Per dues raons:

1. Reconèixer que ens han enganyat sap mal. Preferim no assumir ni difondre el desmentit per no quedar com estúpids. Fins i tot dubtem de la realitat i ens aferrem a la falsedat.

2. Les notícies falses confirmen prejudicis, pors i odis generalitzats. Són molt satisfactòries, doncs alliberen la nostra ràbia. Ens fan sentir vius.

Cal saber-ho.

Australian Police Assault Green Party Candidate Hannah Thomas During Pro-Palestine Protest

Hannah Thomas, a lawyer and recent Green Party candidate who ran against Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in the federal seat of Grayndler, has reportedly been violently assaulted by Australian police during a protest.
The demonstration took place outside a company accused by protesters of cooperating with #Israel. According to reports, #Thomas sustained serious injuries to one of her eyes during her arrest and was rushed to hospital. Doctors fear she may lose her vision as a result.

Which hardware for stable sleep?

I'm contemplating to replace 1-2 aging desktops in our home by "gaming" laptops.

What really bugs me with the Linux laptops I currently have is that sleep is unstable or inefficient. On one device it sometimes just won't wake up. On both the battery is drained fully within few days. I have a MacBook at work and know I'll probably not hit the same level of stability and efficiency in sleep, but I'm wondering whether hardware choice can play a role in improving the experience, especially seeing how I might make this my primary device moving forward.

I often grab the Linux laptop and end up going for the work MacBook or my ipad because the battery is dead and I only wanted to check something real quick - it's okay with an old leftover device but it sort of irritates me.

Thanks for your input! What's the issue with Asus? Their Rog series has some really nice hardware it seems and might be something I can actually walk into a store and try in person.

What about Lenovo? As an owner of two ThinkPads and with friends happy about their Legion devices that's the one other manufacturer I have on my radar regarding "might be available in a store in my country".

The main issue is that a lot of these bigger manufacturers have 3 tiers of hardware they kick out:

1) consumer-grade/junk
2) professional/developer/niche
3) enterprise hardened

If you find a model of something you're looking to buy for sale at big box stores, it's going to be total junk: windows-centric hardware with low reliability, but really cheap to produce. Stay away from those, as their Linux compatibility is going to be horrendous UNLESS you've heard otherwise specifically about a particular model.

Lenovo has done something interesting in the last few years and blurred the lines between #1 and #2, so now it's a crapshoot. ASUS ruined their #2 tier stuff years ago by including gimmicky stuff like touch bars, and secondary displays without ANY support except for Windows.

For Linux compatibility, you need to make sure your components either already have driver support, or is made by a company who directly releases or contributes Linux drivers. AMD and Intel are top of that list, with Nvidia kinda/sorta doing the bare minimum for consumer-grade components, but full support for enterprise-grade stuff.

If you're not sure all the components in the machine you're buying already have Linux support, it's going to be a crapshoot. ASUS specifically makes crappy moves by including things that notoriously DON'T have native Linux support like: Broadcom chipsets, or random audio codecs and speakers that are essentially windows-only.

You can look around and see people's experiences with specific models of ROG, but even those are kind of iffy because of the above. Depending on what you want to use it for, you may be able to work with certain things not working, but if you're talking laptops and Linux, I'd steer clear of anything with Nvidia in it for the battery life alone.

Glenn #Diesen
#Norway is becoming an authoritarian country. Our government, the US government, and the CIA-cutout National Endowment for Democracy ( #NED) finance "non-governmental organisations" (NGOs) such as the Norwegian Helsinki Committee to smear, intimidate, censor, and cancel dissent.

There is plenty of literature on how governments finance "NGOs" to hijack civil society and use human rights to promote regime change and wars. Besides leaving a trail of disasters behind them abroad, they also punish dissent at home.

I have been at the receiving end of endless articles and weekly smears online from this so-called human rights "NGO" for more than four years, which continues to go after my university even after I had to withdraw from all national media. Their other activities include cancelling my speaking events and doxxing me.

Now, this "NGO" is being banned in Russia, and they blame me for it. Why? Twenty professors and academics signed a letter criticizing this "NGO" for harassing me, and now the "NGO" speculates that it attracted the attention of the FSB. This is the actual story they are going with, but it is good enough for the people we generously refer to as journalists.

A few weeks ago, a journalist applied and was granted full access to all my documents at the university, which includes everything from the job application to my professorship promotion application. Why? To go through everything and look for anything that can be presented as academic dishonesty. This is how you get academics fired.

The useful idiots of this "NGO" even produced an absurd Wikipedia profile on me, where my occupation was not "Professor" but "Russian propagandist." Returning to my home country after 20 years abroad was truly the greatest mistake of my life. I do not recognize this country anymore, and I wear the absurd personal attacks by these government-financed trolls as a badge of honour. Absolutely pathetic and unworthy of an open society

Wer keine Lust hat sich den langen Text durchzulesen:
Die Behauptung ist eine alte Behauptung aus der israelischen Militär-PR, die immer dann gebracht wird wenn viele Zivilisten sterben. Es wäre also wenig sinnvoll im Krieg gegen Israel auf diese Taktik zu setzen.

In der Berichterstattung in Deutschland sieht's indirekt proportional aus. Je weniger Belege, umso häufiger spricht man in deutschen Medien darüber, je mehr Belege über den Einsatz von 'human shields' um so weniger wird berichtet.

Nobody Asked You

It’s amusing that the little sock puppet serving as the figurehead for the Kiev regime actually thinks his opinion matters.


#Ukraine must be involved in any #negotiations for a peace deal with #Russia, President #VolodymyrZelensky insisted on Sunday. The Ukrainian leader says that he won’t accept any deals made between U.S. President #DonaldTrump and Russian President #VladimirPutin if he and his team are not also invited to the table.

‘I will never accept any decisions between the #UnitedStates and #Russia about Ukraine – never,’ Zelesnky told NBC Meet the Press host Kristen Welker. ‘And our people, never. And our adults, and children, and everybody, it can’t be so.’


Nobody asked him and nobody cares. Not only can it be so, it will be so. There are precisely two choices:
1. The USA negotiates a peace settlement with Russia.
2. Russia dictates an unconditional surrender.

That’s it. That’s the entire list. And it was obvious from the very start back in February 2022. Notice that nowhere on it appears anything about #Zelensky, the #Kiev #regime, the #UN, the #TerranConfederation, #Starfleet, or the #EuropeanUnion. All of those entities are #irrelevant to the outcome.

Gamified #life

The modern gamified #workplace enables #control beyond Taylor’s wildest dreams. #Games are sets of #rules prescribing both actions and outcomes. A gamified workplace sets not just goals for #workers but precisely how those goals can be achieved. Managers don’t need to follow workers with stopwatches. They can use smartphones or apps. It’s #micromanagement with unprecedented granularity.


...

While this whip was cracking, the workers sped up. ‘We saw a higher incidence of injuries,’ Topete said. ‘Several people were injured on the #job.’ The formerly collegial environment degenerated into a #race. The laundry workers competed with each other, and got upset when coworkers couldn’t keep up. People started skipping bathroom breaks. Pregnant workers fell behind. ‘The #scoreboard incentivises competition,’ said Topete. ‘Our human competitiveness, whatever makes us like games, whatever keeps us wanting to win, it’s a similar thing that was happening. Even if you didn’t want to.’

#IBM’s punch card technology facilitated German atrocities during the #Holocaust, enabling precise targeting, logistical coordination, and detailed record-keeping of victims.

Quoting Rogel Alpher on Israel’s plans to establish a “humanitarian city” in Gaza:

[…] They say – don’t say Nazis, don’t make comparisons. It’s no longer shocking. It’s clear to me that from my current position on the margins of Israeli society, I can only be shocked, not shock others. Most Israelis don’t see a connection between obsessive education about concentration camps from the Holocaust era and establishing a concentration camp for another people under brutal Israeli military control. What can even be done in the face of this tragic pathology?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced plans to establish what he termed a “humanitarian city” in Gaza to house the entire population of over 2 million people. Katz clarified that there would be no exit from the camp while promising an “emigration program” would be implemented.

Alpher acknowledges this is actually a concentration camp - a fenced compound of tents where the only way out would be through emigration from Gaza entirely - a moral horror that facilitates forced displacement and ethnic cleansing, noting the tragic irony that Israelis who were educated about #Holocaust now support creating concentration camps for another people under Israeli military control.

Why is there so much bloodshed?

Well, here's one very clear reason:

From 2020 to 2024, private weapons manufacturers got $2.4 trillion in Pentagon contracts, roughly 54% of its discretionary budget

During those 5 years, the U.S. government invested over twice as much money in five weapons companies as in diplomacy and international assistance. $771 billion went to just 5 firms: Lockheed Martin ($313 billion), RTX (formerly Raytheon, $145 billion), Boeing ($115 billion), General Dynamics ($116 billion), and Northrop Grumman ($81 billion). The total diplomacy, development, and humanitarian aid budget, excluding military aid, was $356 billion.
