This doesn't mean they are not going to raises taxes on the poor even more, they have a World War to finance and equip and someone has to pay the tab, it can't be the beneficiaries of war, industrialists, bankers, defense suppliers, and media!

So to sweeten the deal they announce raising taxes for the rich, while also allowing their lifestyles as business expense tax cuts, but fine print no news headers.

"In London, UK, last week, on a rare overseas trip, I attended the launch of a new campaign initiated by the Climate Majority Project to refocus the efforts of climate advocates from mitigation (cutting greenhouse gases) to what they referred to as “strategic adaptation”. The approach is outlined in the report they released called SAFER: More

QUICK PAID OPPORTUNITY HELPING ANSWER A BASIC ARDUINO QUESTION

My friend is desperately trying to finish making their kids birthday present based on an Arduino project found online.

They're offering $20 USD per 10 minutes ($120/hr!) for someone to get on a quick Jitsi call with them asap and just tell them what wire needs to be attached where.

They're basically on step 2 of building this:
instructables.com/Rat-Operated…

...inspired by @mwl 's ratoperatedvehicle.com.

It's using an Arduino Uno compatible board (from an Elegoo Robot Car v4).

Please DM me so I can put you in touch, or forward / boost to help reach someone who can help. 😀

The right image is a photograph of an electronics project with a board and four wheels attached, and a simple breadboard with some resistors and wires in the center.

Bouncing into the Rhythm: Exploring the Addictive World of Geometry Dash
Have you ever felt that exhilarating rush of adrenaline as you perfectly timed a jump, dodging spikes and navigating impossible obstacles? If so, you might already be familiar with the captivating world of Geometry Jump. But if you're new to the genre, or just looking for a fresh perspective, let's dive into one of its most recognizable stars: Geometry Dash.
This isn't your average platformer. Forget elaborate stories or complex controls. Geometry Dash, and other games like it, offer a deceptively simple, yet endlessly challenging, experience built around rhythm, reaction, and sheer determination. So, buckle up, because we're about to embark on a journey through its blocky, musical landscapes.
The Heartbeat of the Game: Understanding the Gameplay
At its core, Geometry Dash is a rhythm-based platformer. You control a small icon (typically a cube) that automatically moves forward. Your only control is a single tap, which makes your icon jump. That's it. Seems easy, right?
Wrong.
The game throws a relentless barrage of obstacles your way: spikes, blocks, moving platforms, and gaps that seem impossibly wide. The key to survival is timing your jumps perfectly, syncing your actions to the beat of the music. The music isn't just background noise; it's an integral part of the gameplay, providing audio cues that help you anticipate upcoming challenges.
As you progress through the levels, new gameplay mechanics are introduced. You'll encounter:
• Ships: These allow you to control vertical movement by holding down the tap button to ascend and releasing to descend. Mastering ship control is crucial for navigating narrow corridors and avoiding deadly ceilings.
• Balls: These introduce a gravity-flipping mechanic. Tapping changes your ball's gravity, forcing you to strategically flip between the top and bottom of the screen to avoid obstacles.
• UFOs: Similar to the ship, the UFO allows you to jump and glide through the air, but with a different feel and rhythm.
• Waves: These introduce a challenging wave form that requires precise, rapid taps to navigate tight spaces.
• Robots: These allow for variable jump heights based on how long you hold the tap button.
And that's not all! You'll also encounter portals that change your size, mirror your movement, or even reverse the direction of gravity. Each element requires a different timing and strategy, keeping the gameplay fresh and challenging.
To give you a good starting point, you can also find resources like this one: Geometry Dash. They offer a selection of online Geometry Dash games that you can play directly from your browser.
Survival Tips for Aspiring Geometry Dash Masters
Okay, so you understand the basics. Now, how do you actually play well? Here are a few tips to help you survive the onslaught of spikes and blocks:
• Listen to the Music: We mentioned this earlier, but it's worth repeating. The music is your best friend. Pay attention to the beat and use it to anticipate upcoming jumps and obstacles.
• Practice, Practice, Practice: There's no substitute for practice. The more you play a level, the more familiar you'll become with its layout and timing. Don't be afraid to repeat sections over and over again.
• Use Practice Mode: Geometry Dash features a practice mode that allows you to place checkpoints throughout the level. This is invaluable for learning difficult sections without having to start from the beginning every time you die.
• Don't Give Up: Geometry Dash is notoriously difficult. You will die. A lot. The key is to learn from your mistakes, adjust your timing, and keep trying. The satisfaction of finally beating a challenging level is well worth the effort.
• Experiment with Different Icons: While the gameplay remains the same, different icons can provide a slightly different feel. Some players find that certain icons are easier to control than others.
• Adjust Your Settings: Experiment with the game's settings, such as turning on "smooth fix" or adjusting the graphical quality, to find what works best for your device.
Beyond the Main Levels: Exploring the Community
One of the most appealing aspects of Geometry Dash is its thriving community. Players can create and share their own levels, ranging from simple, beginner-friendly challenges to incredibly complex and visually stunning creations. This allows for endless replayability and ensures that there's always something new to discover.
Exploring community levels can be a great way to hone your skills and discover new techniques. You can also find levels that cater to your specific preferences, whether you enjoy fast-paced challenges or more atmospheric and visually appealing experiences.
The End Game: Why Geometry Dash is So Addictive
So, what makes Geometry Dash so captivating? It's a combination of factors:
• Simple Controls, High Skill Ceiling: The game is easy to pick up and play, but mastering it requires dedication and skill.
• Addictive Gameplay Loop: The constant cycle of dying, learning, and improving is incredibly addictive.
• Rhythm-Based Mechanics: The synchronization with the music creates a unique and engaging experience.
• Community-Driven Content: The endless stream of user-created levels provides endless replayability.
Ultimately, Geometry Dash is a testament to the power of simple, well-executed gameplay. It's a game that rewards perseverance, challenges your reflexes, and keeps you coming back for more. So, if you're looking for a challenging and addictive experience, give it a try. You might just find yourself hooked on the rhythm. Now go out there, bounce, and try not to die (too many times)! """

Athens, Greece: Comrades Accused of ‘Conspiracy Vengeance/Armed Response’ Case Attempt Escape


As expected, once again, the police-DAEB in collaboration with the corrupt judges did what they know best to do, to “cook”, to direct, to set up the trials and to get the result they want. Thus, with great audacity, the prosecutor Pappas Spyridon, within an hour, without any substantial arguments and a clear picture, “bagged” most of the accused, assigning to five of them the charge of 187A, that of terrorist organization. A specific name often used by the state and the judiciary to suppress their enemies. In other words, those who chose to oppose social cannibalism, those who chose not to be slaves of the bosses, those who do not accept the few to rule the many, for a life of freedom. Freedom is a basic foundation of life, it is in the nature of human beings, let alone prisoners, to seek it. Thus, on Thursday 10/7, in the Loukareos courts, some of the accused chose the path to freedom, even at the risk of their own lives. Despite the protection measures of the state apparatus and without any scruples about the consequences of this decision, they clashed with the cops, managing to wrest the weapon from one and immobilize a second. However, in their attempt to free the remaining accused, the cops regrouped and the escape attempt ended. They may not have won their freedom this time, but they managed to humiliate the entire security system with its armed cops, sending a strong message of solidarity and the realization that with risk and will, anything can happen. What is written above is not something you would hear or learn from the manipulative media, they know very well how to cover up the mistakes and dirt of their bosses.

PS. Words of great journalistic parrots.

Freedom of speech is a sacred and inviolable right in a democracy.

Gimme a pinch of real commitment over a tonne of enthusiasm any day of the week.

[machinetranslation]'On the margins of anarchism, a harmful confusion persists: that militant engagement is an emotional state, a volatile motivation, a disposition that depends on momentary enthusiasm. From that logic, taking on tasks is a symbolic option, and its fulfillment is subject to the contingencies of the personal. But that vision collides head-on with any serious attempt to build class-action power and revolutionary organization.

Commitment, on the other hand, is a political, everyday and deeply ethical act. It is the conscious decision to link up with a collective project that aims to radically transform the world, and assume the practical consequences that this entails.'
