20 LUGLIO IN PIAZZA ALIMONDA PER NON DIMENTICARE, PER CARLO, PER NOI
Come tutti gli anni centinaia di persone si sono ritrovate in piazza Alimonda, a Genova, dove il 20 luglio 2001 un carabiniere uccise Carlo Giuliani, manifestante di 23 anni. A Carlo e alla sua famiglia fu nemmeno concesso il processo, tutto archiviato. Peraltro, nessuno dei responsabili della repressione di quei giorni genovesi pagò per le violenze, le torture, le falsificazioni e le bugie. Anzi, 24 anni dopo praticamente tutti hanno avuto delle promozioni. E 24 anni dopo è arrivato anche il decreto sicurezza, con il quale l’impunità rischia di assumere dignità di legge.

Why would they go after retired military officials instead of currently employex military officials?
Could it be because they can fake their death and the currently employed officials can still work kr because the retired officials might have died of natural causes but they can write terrorism as the cause of death. Or because actors need to switch roles?

PFLP: The EU is Complicit in the Crime of Starvation Against our People in Gaza
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine warns of an imminent humanitarian catastrophe in the coming hours, during which we may witness mass deaths among the most vulnerable groups, especially children, the sick, and the elderly.
This is in light of the dangerous deterioration of the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, as a result of the escalating aggression and the continued systematic starvation policy practiced by the Zionist occupation, amid American partnership, international silence, and blatant complicity on the part of the European Union.
We hold the European Union politically and morally responsible for the worsening famine, as it is a partner in the crime of starvation perpetrated against our people through its inaction and providing diplomatic cover for the occupation.
We call on the countries of the European Union to stop their policy of camouflage and manipulation of public opinion, and to abandon their blatant bias toward the occupation. Despite escalating warnings about the threat of famine and the use of food as a weapon against more than two million besieged Palestinians, the European Union has chosen to cover up the occupation’s crimes through false diplomatic promises that have not translated into any tangible steps.
The recent bargaining between some EU countries and the occupation’s foreign minister clearly reflects the EU’s policy of deception and complicity. We call on international and human rights organizations to intensify pressure on the European Union and the international community to shoulder their moral and humanitarian responsibilities, abandon complicity and silence, and seriously apply pressure on the occupation to halt the systematic starvation of our people.
Our steadfast people in Gaza do not need empty rhetoric, but rather bold political positions that halt the war of comprehensive extermination, foremost among which is the immediate lifting of the blockade and holding the occupation accountable for its crimes against humanity.

The Democratic Party’s Instagram-friendly progressive darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has voted with the overwhelming majority of House representatives against withholding $500 million in missile funding for Israel, despite previously saying that Israel is committing “a genocide of Palestinians” in #Gaza with US support.
"Rubio also accused Albanese of having... open contempt for the United States, Israel, and the West."
Yes, she is a Human Being, Marco, and Human Beings have contempt for #Genocide, especially what we have now seen of Genocide for Profit by the Nazi corporations you protect with a trillion dollar arsenal.
The sanctioning by the Trump administration of Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur, is an ominous harbinger of the end of the rule of international law.
Did I mention "Nazi Corporations". They actually are.
"IBM, whose technology facilitated #Nazi Germany’s generation and tabulation of punched cards for national census data, military logistics, ghetto statistics, train traffic management and concentration camp capacity, is once again a partner in this current genocide.
#Nazi Corporations - really are a legacy of #Nazi Germany (2 of 2) "It (IBM) has operated in Israel since 1972. It provides training for Israeli military and intelligence agencies, especially Unit 8200, which is responsible for clandestine operations, the collection of signal intelligence and code decryption, along with counterintelligence, cyberwarfare, military intelligence and surveillance."
(IBM is among a handful of #USA corporations that supplied Hitler)
The latest United Nations report names hundreds of corporations, banks, technology firms, universities, pension funds and charities that profit from the Israeli occupation and genocide.

handy to check for drift. like with a political compass. many are oblivious to being put in a box, and they think the left of the box is the full extent of possibility, and not even realise the box being turned... but so long as they still have their label, that's fine, ignore the atrocities and hypocrisies. ... handy to have a political compass. ... not just to help prevent being hoodwinked by those who reduce and conflate from at least 2D down to the linear, even to the binary.... y'know, like authoritarians of both left and right love to do, claiming allegance on economic scales, with the libertarians of both left and right, playing each off each other, tacking totalitarianwards, divided and conquered. ... imagine if the libertarian left stopped falling for the authoritarian left, and the libertarian right stopped falling for the authoritarian right, and instead, libertarian left and libertarian right unite, for freedom first... defiant against the insidious ploys of the corrupt council. imagine...

Ayer terminé de leer el libro "O homem que matou a Getúlio Vargas" ("El hombre que máto a Getúlio Vargas") de Jô Soares.
Jô fue un presentador, músico, escritor, artista completo MARAVILLOSO que se fue hace un par de añitos y dejó un vacío inmenso. Una especie de Dolina con más onda brasileño.
El libro cuenta la historia de Dimitri Borja Korozec, hijo de una brasileña mulata y un serbio, nacido a comienzos del siglo XX en un pueblo de ese país y criado bajo la gran influencia de su padre anarquista. Él crece para ser entrenado como asesino profesional. Y es un excelente alumno, con muchísimas habilidades y particularidades (como tener doce dedos) que lo destacan como la gran esperanza de la revolución anarquista.
Su vida tiene una misión: acabar con los tiranos. Y así pasa por todos los eventos que marcaron el siglo XX hasta casi los años 60 buscando cumplir con su cometido. Pero no cuenta con un detalle que marcará toda su vida: su natural torpeza y mala suerte.
En un libro de 333 páginas, viajamos por la historia de la primera parte del siglo XX en Europa hasta llegar a Brasil y Getúlio Vargas, el Perón brasilero, y no queda otra que reírse de todo y lamentarse por cómo ciegamente se siguen tiranos y dictadores sin medir consecuencias.

The first Jewish Anti-Zionist Congress, which drew 1,000 anti-Zionist Jews and their allies to Vienna, marked a significant moment in the rising tide against the settler-colonial state of Israel.
When Diane Abbott stated that racism based on skin colour is different from other types of racism, many rushed to condemn her. Yet recent events involving England footballer Jess Carter show just how accurate and necessary that observation was.
I admit I am late to the party, but going forward, I am boycotting all #Sunni affiliated media like #AlJazeera and its ilk. I regretfully gave them the benefit of the doubt for far too long.
I finally received first hand accounts from direct close relatives in #Syria that shows that such media outlets are lying incessantly and are falsely vilifying the #Druze community.
They are also omitting lots of horrendous crimes. Thousands have been massacred in #Sweida by extremist islamists.
The new regime in #Syria is actually copy-pasting what #Israel is doing in #Gaza (although they luckily don't have the same firepower). They're doing so against a small vulnerable community in #Sweida of barely 500K people. This includes industrial scale massacres and siege that even #Jordan participated in.
#AlJazeera and the filthy #Gulf states are whitewashing these crimes.
Inshallah they don't pillage and set fire to all buildings in the neighborhood, and of course murder + kidnap people, like this regime (and their central asian affiliates) did to my family on the coast.
They already did. The house of my sister's ex-husband was ransacked. They luckily fled, but a relative of his wife was killed. A friend of my brother's, has been either disappeared or killed. He was a mathematics scientist. Until recently I was not aware. But thousands have been massacred. Every day people are finding dead bodies in homes, in some cases heavily decomposing. My family gave me horrific accounts in a call today.
Still, if it's not for the idiocy of the Sunni world as exemplified by the Arab monarchies, Israel would not have had a chance. When their own people are being massacred in Gaza, they turn around and ethnically cleanse Syria from its minorities.
Gulf countries are among the only places where slavery still exists. They're filthy racists.

Bu gün 20 Temmuz. Yine sözün bittiği, yazının yetmediği günlerden biri. - Keşke bizim çocuklarımız ölseydi, siz misafirdiniz. - Neden çocuklarımızı öldürüyorsunuz, dünya hepimize yetecek kadar büyük değil mi? " Diye haykıran anne yüreği çığlıkların adı. Bilinir ki insanları diğer canlılardan ayıran en büyük özellik zelal yürekleri, samimi ve içten gülüşleridir. Yaşam doludurlar, umutla bakarlar yarınlara. Barıştan, yaşamdan, yaşatmaktan, sevgiden yanadırlar. Dünyanın en güzel gülüşlerini vurdular bu gün. Gülmeyi bilmeyen, ciğersiz, devşirme, karanlık yapılar işbaşındaydı o gün yine. Alçakça, ahlaksızca, kalleşçe, namussuzca vurdular. Başka bildikleri yok zaten. Bu gün 20 Temmuz. Bugün SURUÇ, PİRSUS, SERUĞ. 33 karanfil. 33 ölümsüz gülüş. Ne söz yetiyor, ne yazı. Tüm dillerden ruhları şad olsun bir kez daha. Katillerine de sınırsız lanet.
My first hurdle is understanding that i need to add a boot sequence and navigate to the EFI file in my mounted pen drive.
second hurdle is understanding i need to disable secure boot so that the dell bios doesnt think something is wrong and always run the bios repair program.
third is understanding that i need to disable Intel rapid storage for the full install (luckily linux mint tells us this)
and honestly the hardest thing was installing fastfetch cuz theres a lot of outdated information out there on how to install it on Mint.
the process took about 4 hours, i consider it very lucky that i was able to do it so fast.
if you go in not knowing what to do, it can seem 'difficult'. but it's mostly like on any other oem prebuilt:
optional: prep the target disk (backups, wipe or clear part table, etc), reset bios to defaults.
if necessary: switch from raid or rst to ahci sata mode, default boot mode to efi, disable secure boot. note that some distributions support secure boot but your method of creating an installer might not--you may be able to re-enable if you want after install.
note that hp systems have a hoop to jump through (a confirmation prompt to disable) after disabling secure boot on the next startup. do not use esc key to trigger boot menu, use f9 for boot menu, f10 for bios entry.. as esc will cancel the confirmation code prompt and automatically re-enable secure boot.
insert or plug-in installer, hit the magic key upon power on (f12 for dell, f9 for hp) to bring up boot menu and select installer media, boot and run installer.
I’m glad you said this, I was thinking “I just plug in the USB stick and install Linux”
In fact, the hardest but for me is remembering the special key to press upon boot up so it goes into boot selection mode and I can just select my USB stick…
Some laptops don't really let you boot from external install media so easily nowadays.
I helped a buddy get Linux Mint on their "old" laptop to try it out. But it turned out you needed some manufacturer provided code to unlock booting from anything but the main harddrive within the bios.
We contacted support but never heard back. We did find a work around when they decided to swap the existing HDD for an SSD, they used a USB to sata cable to install Mint on the SSD from their desktop then installed the SSD into their laptop in place of the original drive so it booted straight into that.
Welcome to Linux. Glad to see you're not letting the hurdles get in your way and are working through solutions. There's more to come.
You say "5 year old laptop" as if that's ancient... 10th gen Intel 😄. I don't even look at laptops newer than 5 years. Don't need much more for internet tasks and office work.
Ive got an HP Zbook g6 coming my way soon I'm excited about, and its way overkill for what I'm gonna use it for; i just need a bigger laptop because i have giant meat hooks for hands and I actually use the numpad
Tl;dr, you can get a lot of laptop at decent prices looking at "older" hardware
