»Israel is carrying out a deliberate campaign of starvation in the occupied Gaza Strip, systematically destroying the health, well-being and social fabric of Palestinian life, Amnesty International said today as it published chilling new testimonies of starved displaced civilians. Their accounts underscore the organization’s repeated findings that the deadly combination of hunger and disease is not an unfortunate byproduct of Israel’s military operations. «

#Protests that culminated in a mass rally in #TelAviv attended by hundreds of thousands of people over the weekend have exposed a yawning chasm between many Israelis & the unpopular hard-line govt of PM #Netanyahu.

Demonstrations Sunday had been billed as a day of Israeli solidarity w/families of #hostages held in #Gaza & a call to stop the #war & bring captives home. Many businesses observed a popular strike & activists & sympathizers blocked major highways as protests went on into the night.

China just published its annual Report on Human Rights Violations in the US.

Divide between rich and poor widened with over 40 million Americans were living in poverty. Drugs, guns and cops continued to kill, racial inequality is rampant.

The U.S. has not ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, and is the only UN member state that has refused to ratify the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

[HELP] Issue with bluetooth devices after the latest kernel update on Tumbleweed


I recently updated my Laptop to the latest kernel update and since then I've been experiencing issues with Bluetooth device connectivity especially after the system goes to sleep. After sleep it doesn't recongize any of the Bluetooth devices and I have to restart the OS for it to work.
I've also noticed that lsusb doesn't list the Bluetooth chipset after waking from sleep mode. Does anyone have suggestion on what to do or should I do a rollback and wait it out until the next update?

>first with menhera egirls whoring like on twitter with simps
This almost happened when the Plemora devs made a deal with a porn website, the website wanted support for an instance for the camgirls

some people actually tried making a fedi wiki years ago but I think it was abandoned soon after

In response to one of Facilitated Conversations prompts regarding the book Mediocre, a participant named what many of us know but rarely put into such clear terms: the fragility of white male identity.

The list they shared as “threats” to white male masculinity included:

→ Reliance on others for basic needs
→ Feminine-coded behaviors or traits (that would portray men as “soft”)
→ Imposition or restriction of independence
→ Disobedience to authority
→ Cooperation or communal ways of living

I want @p to give his expert schizo opinion about this.

It seems these guys are trying to create a protocol for a "descentralized, censorship free internet" that runs over current infrastructure, dubbed "betanet".

Feasible? Fake and gay? Similar to what you are doing with Revolver?

I am at the library, and it has now been 45 minutes that others and I have been waiting for the restrooms to become available. We knocked on the door and asked if anyone was inside, but we received no response. We then alerted the staff member, who knocked in turn while identifying herself. To our surprise, a man of African descent finally came out of the restroom without providing any explanation. He didn't even wash his hands. Can you tell me what he was doing in there?

#vie #de #biblio

Je suis à la bibliothèque et cela fait maintenant 45 minutes que d'autres personnes et moi attendons que les toilettes se libèrent. Nous avons frappé à la porte et demandé s'il y avait quelqu'un à l'intérieur, mais nous n'avons reçu aucune réponse. Nous avons donc alerté l'employée, qui a frappé à son tour en s'identifiant. À notre grande surprise, un homme d'origine africaine est finalement sorti des toilettes, sans fournir d'explication. Il ne s'est même pas lavé les mains. Peux-tu me dire ce qu'il faisait là-dedans ?

Sobre el tema pedir DNI para entrar en internet en el que parece que media Europa se ha puesto de acuerdo a la vez: no solo me preocupa como usuario, sino también como operador de un foro.

Si la única opción que me dan es "verifica la identidad de tus usuarios o serás denunciado", evidentemente tardaré 5 segundos en desconectar el foro de internet. No tengo infraestructura para verificar DNIs; no quiero tener infraestructura para verificar DNIs; y no quiero pegarme con el leviatán por un lugar tan pequeño e insignificante de internet.

Ahora bien: llamadme cínico pero no entiendo por qué "foro guitarras", "foro arroceras" o "foro ventiladores de techo" deberían tener sección para adultos en primer lugar. Supongo que habrá lugares mejores para esas cosas.

Y si todo el contenido del foro es apto para menores de 18, no hay tratamiento de datos agresivo y no hay sección de mensajes privados donde pueda pasar algo difícil de moderar, no entiendo por qué no debería poder operar un foro sin pedir verificación y asumiendo que todos los usuarios tienen 14 años. No hay nada que verificar.

Claro que esto lo digo suponiendo que todo esto se esté haciendo porque "es que nadie va a pensar en los niños" —cosa que cada día que pasa dudo más.

The Battlefield 6 beta may be over, but 2042's just gotten a massive new update

The past couple of weekends have been an absolute dream for this Battlefield enjoyer. Between ratting my way around Siege of Cairo’s narrow corridors, shotty in-hand, and snaking my way through Iberian Offensive’s ravaged structures, shotty still in-hand, I’ve been having a blast. Yes, the maps on offer were a bit too small to properly capture the ...
