Making Sense of the PKK’s Self-Dissolution

crimethinc.com/Jasna2025

On May 12, 2025, the PKK announced its dissolution after more than four decades of armed struggle against the Turkish government. On July 11, PKK fighters participated in a ceremony signifying disarmament. What will this mean for Kurdish movements for liberation and for the Middle East in general?

"It is not just the fate of an armed group at stake, but of a political project that has redefined the parameters of struggle throughout the region."

Animals react to secret sounds from plants, say scientists
bbc.com/news/articles/c8e4860n…

"Animals react to sounds being made by plants, new research suggests, opening up the possibility that an invisible ecosystem might exist between them.

In the first ever such evidence, a team at Tel Aviv University found that female moths avoided laying their eggs on tomato plants if they made noises they associated with distress, indicating that they may be unhealthy."

Cabin Comfort and Touchscreen Controls: The Hidden Cost of Self Concrete Mixer Operator Comfort

The gleaming new generation of [self loading mixer concrete](aimixconcretesolution.com/self…

) presents operators with spaceship-worthy cabins featuring orthopedic air-ride seats, multi-zone climate control, and panoramic digital displays. While these amenities dramatically improve working conditions, they introduce complex trade-offs that ripple through equipment budgets, maintenance schedules, and operational efficiency. Beneath the surface of these comfort upgrades lies a web of unintended consequences that savvy fleet managers must navigate to maintain profitability in an increasingly competitive market.

## The Illusion of Increased Productivity
Manufacturers often justify premium-priced comfort packages with promises of enhanced operator productivity. The reality reveals a more nuanced picture. While ergonomic improvements reduce fatigue during extended shifts, the **cognitive load** imposed by multilayer touchscreen interfaces actually slows decision-making in time-critical mixing operations. Studies of mixer crews in Qatar's extreme climates showed operators in basic cabins maintained 7% faster cycle times than those navigating complex control ecosystems.
![Maintenance on self loading mixer](287460)
Modern vibration-damped cabins isolate operators so effectively that they lose tactile feedback about mixture consistency—a sensory connection veteran drivers traditionally relied upon to adjust water content instinctively. Some European contractors now install supplemental vibration actuators in steering wheels to artificially restore this lost feedback channel, creating an ironic solution to an over-engineering problem.
## Maintenance Complexity Behind the Luxury Facade
That sleek 12-inch capacitive touchscreen represents a **single point of failure** more vulnerable to concrete dust infiltration than traditional tactile controls. Repair costs for climate control systems in [mini concrete mixer](aimixconcretesolution.com/conc…) cabins run 300% higher than standard HVAC units, with specialized particulate filters requiring replacement every 250 operating hours in dusty environments. The sealed, pressurized cabins that protect operators from external noise introduce new failure modes—a single damaged door gasket can disable the entire air filtration system.
Electro-hydraulic control systems underpinning these comfort features demand proprietary diagnostic tools unavailable at most rural job sites. A survey of Australian mining operations revealed that mixer downtime increased by 22% after adopting full-comfort models, primarily due to waiting periods for specialized technicians. The very systems designed to improve uptime through operator satisfaction ironically create new dependencies on manufacturer support networks.
![AS 4.0 Cement Mixer Self Loading Machine for Road Widden in El Salvador](287459)
## The Training Gap No One Anticipated
Transitioning veteran operators to these technologically advanced [concrete mixers South Africa](aimixconcretesolution.com/self…) requires surprisingly extensive retraining. The intuitive interfaces prove anything but instinctive for workers accustomed to mechanical levers and analog gauges. One Indonesian contractor documented a 40-hour learning curve before operators achieved their former efficiency levels—a hidden cost rarely factored into procurement decisions.
Younger operators drawn to the high-tech cabins often lack the **material science intuition** developed through years of hands-on mixing. The industry sees growing instances of perfect slump readings on digital displays coinciding with poor field performance, as operators become over-reliant on sensors rather than visual-tactile assessment. Some forward-thinking companies now run parallel training programs teaching both traditional judgment skills and new interface navigation.
The comfort revolution in mixer cabins isn't inherently misguided—it simply demands more thoughtful implementation. Smart fleets balance these upgrades with robust maintenance protocols and hybrid training approaches. Others opt for selectively equipped units, reserving full-comfort models for extreme environments while maintaining simpler machines for routine operations. The most successful operators recognize that true efficiency comes not from chasing every available comfort feature, but from strategically integrating enhancements that genuinely improve outcomes without introducing unsustainable overhead.

The United States is now functionally equivalent to Nazi Germany in the 1930s.

As of today there is no more "it's going to happen" - it has now happened, fully and completely. The US government has been taken over by ultranationalist authoritarians intent on ethnic cleansing. That should be the headline of every newspaper and news program. Sound the alarm. Sound all the alarms.

Should it REALLY take an hour or more of my time to set up a brand new phone with a brand new number and absolutely nothing special about it?

My youngest is getting his first phone tonight, and I am very grateful that he is my youngest, which hopefully means I'll NEVER have to do this nonsense again.

I'm kidding myself, obviously--he'll need at least one more phone before he leaves the house. Damn it.
