Bitcoin criminals stealing electricity
Malaysia suffers $1 billion in losses in electricity theft linked to illegal bitcoin mining.
The government has carried out multiple enforcement actions over the years, but to no avail.
Countries like Iran, Russia, and Kazakhstan have faced similar issues.

Our economic system may squash workers, but we should at least celebrate the marvels of choice it provides for consumers!
For example, if you don't like Hertz, you're free to rent a car from Dollar or Thrifty instead. (OK, wait, bad example - they're all owned by the same company.)
Let's try again: Don't like Match.com? Then find dates on OK Cupid or Tinder or Hinge or PlentyOfFish or...
(What's that? They're all owned by one company, too? Yikes...)

En cartographie y'a deux écoles:
- Le département, enfin la CEA, qui estime qu'une bande cyclable au bord d'une route majeur où les voitures/poids lourds roulent à 90km/h en pleine ligne droite c'est un "itinéraire vélo structurant"
- Les communauté de commune de centre Alsace (Selestat...) qui indiquent "Axe non recommandé pour un public familial" (et distinguent les pistes cyclables des voies partagées)
J'ai testé Selestat-Marckolsheim, je recommande pas 😨
Une bande cyclable c'est pas de la sécurité pour une route > 40km/h
not' bon maire (j'étais dans l'équipe municipale, j'ai claqué, j'suis parti) avait une super idée :
"y'a un chemin de tracteur, là, entre les 2 hameaux", on n'a qu'à en faire une piste cyclable.
mais, on bitume, tout ça? comment on fait pour que les tracteurs bousillent pas tout?
ah, non, pas besoin, ça va c'est un chemin quoi, y'a juste à mettre des panneaux.

In May, early-stage mortgage delinquencies posted the largest month-over-month increases of any other debt type, according to a report from VantageScore, a credit scoring company. That's particularly notable, since borrowers usually prioritize their mortgage debt over other loans, making it less common for them to fall behind on their house payments.

Don't miss the beauty in what Israel is doing in Syria, because it is going to have the same effect and the same result as its attack on Iran, only much worse, because Syria shares a border with occupied Palestine.
Israel has now made it clear that it is an enemy of the Syrian people - all of them, regardless of faith or ethnic group. It made an Israeli-friendly government in Syria an impossibility: it will be seen, rightly so, as an act of treason to be friendly with Israel.
This will have a very positive impact on creating a shared Syrian story and ethos, and rekindle the spirit of resistance.
On the military front, Israel now engages in active fighting over a huge piece of geography it has no soldiers to occupy or even monitor. And that's when, in neighboring Lebanon, things are close to boiling point.
Israel has created the perfect conditions for guerrilla warfare against its forces on the ground across many hundreds of kilometers of frontline, stretching from Ras a Nakura on the Mediterranean to the Syrian/Jordanian border.
Israel has chosen to do that at a time when its military is disintegrating, with a serious chunk of its ground forces effectively debilitated or too fatigued and afraid to engage in conflict, and Israeli society finding growing difficulty in just surviving.
Israel, led by Netanyahu, is invading Syria now because, as I have said many times in the past 20 months, they have no other option, psychologically and in terms of the driving narratives. They are being propelled forward by the sheer force of their psychopathy, fanaticism, and previous mistakes.
But the consequences are going to be devastating. Netanyahu will have to ask for American help in the war for the second time in months. Israel just doesn't have soldiers for these adventures, and thinning down further the forces stationed in Gaza will have terrible implications for the remaining IDF colonizer force there. They may have to retreat from parts of the Strip, under fire, while suffering heavy casualties.
And the Intifada that I'm anticipating in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is another catastrophe waiting to unfold.
Don't mistake the Syria campaign for a show of force. These are the last desperate palpitations of a dying body and ideology. Israel is digging its own grave as fast as its remaining energy allows.

@reallyangry
I think the Adhkenazi & Sephardic Jews are descendants of a mixture of converts and the worst of the worst among the Israelites who
travelled over land and sea to make converts who were twice the children of hell that they are if I remember the quote correctly
They are primarily of ancestry from the Soviet Union and Europe and have a lower percent middle eastern ancestry than Syrian Palestinians
Celebrities might lie about Ashkenazi ancestry to stay out of trouble
@reallyangry
Exactly Jesus taught a message of love instead of a message of enslaving or executing people if they are of the wrong ancestry
The worst among the Israelites did not like that message so they revolted and got kicked out and made converts that behaved even worse than them and who discriminated against people based on ancestry even though they were converts and not of that ancestry

The change is due to new age verification laws in the UK.Amanda Yeo (Mashable)
If the UK is going to require adult verification it should be built into your internet contract. Yeah, I'm an adult. I'm paying my bills, of course I'm a fucking adult. I over pay for this garbage internet.
Uploading a selfie? The ai is going to determine if you're over 18? Can the ai determine if the selfie is also ai?
it should be built into your internet contract
This works fine with personal contracts like your mobile. (EE has a porn filter that you can disable in your account.)
But it doesn’t quite work for contracts that usually have multiple users. Like your home Internet. Because a child could connect to your WiFi and access that shmutz.
Your ISP doesn’t see which device accesses the Internet. They only see their router.
OTOH, most routers already have features to block websites for specific client devices. But good luck putting the onus on the parents to configure that properly.

Je pense à Mathis, 19 ans, cuit vivant dans du goudron à 200°. Je pense à l’horreur sans nom de sa mort. Je pense à ce frais et joli visage, fondu. À ce tout jeune corps réduit en bouillie noire pour un devis.
Je pense à ses hurlements. À son agonie terrifiante. Je pense à son camarade, blessé à son tour, qui a tenté, comme il a pu, de l’arracher aux griffes brûlantes du bitume.
Avant Mathis, j’ai pensé à Lorenzo. À Axel. À Lucas. Quinze ans. Seize ans. Dix-sept ans. Tous morts pendant leur stage en entreprise, pendant que leurs profs épuisés étaient « redéployés » pour surveiller des examens auxquels ces trois garçons ne se présenteront donc jamais.
Il faut bien occuper les enfants, n’est-ce pas ?
La mort au travail, écrabouillés comme de pauvres mouches, ça vous va comme projet pédagogique ?
Quelle magnifique "reconquête du mois de juin".
Enfin, on ne conquiert pas sans quelques petits morts au passage.
Leurs parents, eux, vont pouvoir retourner au boulot, continuer à s’y tuer à petit feu.
Je pense à ceux qui ont 16 ans, 22 ans, 35 ans, 61 ans. Je pense à ceux qui tombent sur les lignes de montage, au fond d’une cuisine, au bord d’un toit. À ceux qu’on enterre dans les statistiques. Je pense à tous ces morts au travail qu’on n’ose même plus compter. Parce qu’ils sont prévus.
Et pendant ce temps-là, nos élites calculent, redéploient, optimisent.
Elles savent, bien sûr qu’elles savent que d’autres mourront. Mais elles, elles n’y pensent pas. Ni avant, ni après.
Elles savent que d’autres Mathis seront carbonisés sur place. Elles savent que les vieux crèveront de chaud dans des EHPAD. Elles savent que les mères accoucheront dans des couloirs sans personnel. Elles savent que les profs tomberont en classe. Elles savent que les aides-soignantes pleureront aux toilettes. Elles savent que les livreurs s'effondreront sur le bitume qu’ils auront trop foulé.
Elles savent.
Mais elles n’y pensent pas.
Ni avant. Ni après.
Elles s’en foutent.
Parce que c’est prévu.
Parce que la combustion humaine est devenue un rouage de la machine.
Et nous, tous et toutes, nous cramerons comme Mathis dans nos appartements chauffés à blanc par un climat déréglé, maquillé en météo passagère.
Nous grillerons ans nos boulots absurdes, nos open spaces sans air, nos cuisines brûlantes et nos vies à crédit.
Nous grillerons à petit feu, cuits dans la marmite de l’avidité, du cynisme, de ce capitalisme en phase terminale qui continue à vendre des ventilateurs pendant que l’air devient irrespirable.
Je n’en peux plus de l’humanité.

Η Ισπανία του 1936 είναι το ηρωικό παρελθόν της Αριστεράς. Και όχι άδικα. Ποτέ άλλοτε δεν είχε δείξει τόση αυτοθυσία, πρωτοβουλία και ευρηματικότητα η εργατική τάξη απέναντι στους φασίστες και τα αφεντικά. Υπήρξαν μάχες άνισες, με ανεπαρκώς εξοπλισμένους ή και εντελώς άοπλους εργάτες απέναντι στο φασιστικό στρατό και τη χωροφυλακή, αναμετρήσεις που δεν μπορούσε να ελπίζει ούτε ο πιο ευφυής επαγγελματίας στρατιωτικός στο αντιφασιστικό στρατόπεδο πως θα μπορούσε να τις διαχειριστεί. Κι όμως, αυτές τις μάχες τις κέρδισε η τόλμη, ο ηρωισμός και η ευρηματικότητα των ανώνυμων εργατών και εργατριών.
Το πιο ηρωικό προλεταριάτο του πλανήτη διέθετε τους πλέον δειλούς και άβουλους αρχηγούς. Το κλασικό σχήμα «όταν οι μάζες τραβάνε αποφασιστικά αριστερά, τότε οι ηγεσίες τους τρέχουν να παραδοθούν στα δεξιά» επιβεβαιώθηκε πολλές φορές στην Ιστορία, ποτέ όμως με τόσο δραματικό τρόπο όπως στην Ισπανία το ’36.
Υπήρξε ένα σύνθημα που συμπύκνωσε συνολικά τις αυταπάτες και τα λάθη των οργανώσεων της Αριστεράς και του αναρχοσυνδικαλισμού στην Ισπανία: «Πρώτα να κερδίσουμε τον πόλεμο και μετά συζητάμε για επανάσταση». Πιο απλά, έπρεπε πρώτα να γυρίσουν οι εργάτες στην «κανονικότητα»...
