We're slowly seeing what leftists always warned about in the UK: all these laws against 'terrorism' are now expanding the definition to be used against every day citizens, from authors being arrested for donating money to activist organizations or hundreds being arrested for protesting a genocide.
It's never just a word, never just a law, and it'll never just affect everyone but you.

I don’t understand why we must spend billions of dollars and waste so much water for AI.
I just created an “AI-generated image” from the original using a few dabs of the retouch tool in the Photos app.
Might have taken a sip of water afterwards but that was it.
(Is there a word/phrase for taking a regular image and making it look like it was AI generated? There should be.)

Over two decades China has leapt ahead of other countries, churning out innovative designs for the energy mix of the future: solar and wind power, batteries and EVs.
Accused for years of copying the technologies of other countries, China now dominates the renewable energy landscape not just in terms of patent filings and research papers, but in what analysts say are major contributions that will help to move the world away from fossil fuels.

Robert Henri - Summer storm
fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_H…
En 1911, il assista à une conférence de la célèbre anarchiste Emma Goldman qui lui fit une si vive impression qu'il se rendit par la suite à toutes celles qu'elle fit cette année-là. C'est elle qui lui proposa de créer au centre Ferrer de New York où une école des beaux-arts, la Modern School avait été ouverte sur le modèle de la Escuela moderna de Francisco Ferrer. Il y enseigna deux soirs par semaine jusqu'en 1918 en alternance avec George Bellows. Par ces cours, où régnait une certaine liberté, passèrent certaines personnalités qui acquirent par la suite une certaine notoriété telles que Man Ray, Paul Rohland, Niles Spencer, ainsi que Léon Trotski qui y étudia la peinture durant son exil à New York en 1917[5].

LA CAUSE PALESTINIENNE
En septembre #1983, Gilles #Deleuze écrit ce texte qui n’a pas vieillit d’une ligne. À vous de le diffuser. [ Dans Deux Régimes de fous, textes et entretiens 1975-1995, Éditions de Minuit, 2003, p. p. 221-223. ]
La cause palestinienne est d’abord l’ensemble des injustices que ce peuple a subies et ne cesse de subir. Ces injustices sont les actes de violence, mais aussi les illogismes, les faux raisonnements, les fausses garanties qui prétendent les compenser ou les justifier.
(…) D’un bout à l’autre, il s’agira de faire comme si le peuple palestinien, non seulement ne devait plus être, mais n’avait jamais été.
Les conquérants étaient de ceux qui avaient subi eux-mêmes le plus grand #génocide de l’ #histoire. De ce génocide, les sionistes avaient fait un mal absolu. Mais transformer le plus grand génocide de l’histoire en mal absolu, c’est une vision religieuse et mystique, ce n’est pas une vision historique. Elle n’arrête pas le mal ; au contraire, elle le propage, elle le fait retomber sur d’autres innocents, elle exige une réparation qui fait subir à ces autres une partie de ce que les #juifs ont subi (l’expulsion, la mise en ghetto, la disparition comme peuple). Avec des moyens plus « froids » que le génocide, on veut aboutir au même résultat.
Les USA et l’Europe devaient réparation aux juifs. Et cette réparation, ils la firent payer par un peuple dont le moins qu’on puisse dire est qu’il n’y était pour rien, singulièrement innocent de tout holocauste et n’en ayant même pas entendu parler. C’est là que le grotesque commence, aussi bien que la violence. Le #sionisme, puis l’État d’ #Israël exigeront que les Palestiniens les reconnaissent en droit. Mais lui, l’État d’Israël, il ne cessera de nier le fait même d’un peuple palestinien. On ne parlera jamais de #Palestiniens, mais d’ #Arabes de #Palestine, comme s’ils s’étaient trouvés là par hasard ou par erreur. Et plus tard, on fera comme si les Palestiniens expulsés venaient du dehors, on ne parlera pas de la première guerre de résistance qu’ils ont menée tout seuls. On en fera les descendants d’Hitler, puisqu’ils ne reconnaissaient pas le droit d’Israël. Mais Israël se réserve le droit de nier leur existence de fait. C’est là que commence une fiction qui devait s’étendre de plus en plus, et peser sur tous ceux qui défendaient la cause palestinienne. Cette fiction, ce pari d’Israël, c’était de faire passer pour antisémites tous ceux qui contesteraient les conditions de fait et les actions de l’Etat sioniste. Cette opération trouve sa source dans la froide politique d’Israël à l’égard des Palestiniens.
Israël n’a jamais caché son but, dès le début : faire le vide dans le territoire palestinien. Et bien mieux, faire comme si le territoire palestinien était vide, destiné depuis toujours aux sionistes. Il s’agissait bien de colonisation, mais pas au sens européen du XIX° siècle : on n’exploiterait pas les habitants du pays, on les ferait partir. Ceux qui resteraient, on n’en ferait pas une main-d’œuvre dépendant du territoire, mais plutôt une main-d’œuvre volante et détachée, comme si c’étaient des immigrés mis en ghetto. Dès le début, c’est l’achat des terres sous la condition qu’elles soient vides d’occupants, ou vidables. C’est un génocide, mais où l’extermination physique reste subordonnée à l’évacuation géographique : n’étant que des Arabes en général, les Palestiniens survivants doivent aller se fondre avec les autres Arabes. L’extermination physique, qu’elle soit ou non confiée à des mercenaires, est parfaitement présente. Mais ce n’est pas un génocide, dit-on, puisqu’elle n’est pas le « but final » : en effet, c’est un moyen parmi d’autres.
La complicité des #Etats-Unis avec Israël ne vient pas seulement de la puissance d’un lobby sioniste. Elias Sanbar a bien montré comment les #États-Unis retrouvaient dans Israël un aspect de leur histoire : l’extermination des Indiens, qui, là aussi, ne fut qu’en partie directement physique. il s’agissait de faire le vide, et comme s’il n’y avait jamais eu d’Indiens, sauf dans des ghettos qui en feraient autant d’immigrés du dedans. A beaucoup d’égards, les Palestiniens sont les nouveaux #Indiens, les Indiens d’Israël. L’analyse marxiste indique les deux mouvements complémentaires du #capitalisme : s’imposer constamment des limites, à l’intérieur desquelles il aménage et exploite son propre système ; repousser toujours plus loin ces limites, les dépasser pour recommencer en plus grand ou en plus intense sa propre fondation. Repousser les limites, c’était l’acte du capitalisme américain, du rêve américain, repris par Israël et le rêve du Grand Israël sur territoire arabe, sur le dos des Arabes.

When I was looking around for support in customizing #Hubzilla ...well, I didn't get the support I needed, though I did figure it out in the end myself. What I did get was a rather interesting issue brought up in a forum: #^forum.statler.ws/display/?mid=…
Basically, a couple people comparing the existence of a public feed available to anyone, including people not logged in, to rape culture, because people are being exposed to content that they may not like or be offended by.
My instantaneous reaction was "dear god libs are still hung up on their 'safe spaces'", and, as a survivor myself, comparing seeing something you don't like on the internet to rape seems pretty tasteless. But that also seems like someone a lot of people would call me an asshole for, so I thought it might be worthwhile to do more thinking on it, and see what others think.
My reasoning is: All these posts are public anyway. Back before the internet was all consolidated by corporations, internet safety wasn't only about basic stranger danger, but also just knowing what sites not to click on to avoid offensive content — and also understanding that sometimes, you'll be exposed to that offensive content anyway.
Hubzilla admins also have regex-based control over blocking content from the public stream, along with more basic blocking of channels and instances.
I haven't done a lot of that, because my hub's public stream is mostly stuff that I follow, or political things that others follow; and I do have the public stream active and as my public homepage, because I feel it gives the best sense of the content someone will have if they join the hub. As #WotW grows, I may change the public feed to contain content originating only here, but for now, that would mainly be one person, which doesn't look awesome I don't think (as that one person).
But yeah, I wonder what people think: Is a generally unmoderated public feed rape culture? Should my new little hub use it on its front page, or is there a more attractive alternative?
