La rapporteure des Nations Unies pour les territoires palestiniens occupés, vient d’accuser les responsables de l’UE, dont la présidente de la Commission européenne Ursula von der Leyen, de complicité de crimes de guerre et crimes contre l’humanité pour leur soutien à Israël dans son génocide à Gaza.
« Je ne suis pas quelqu’un qui dit : L’histoire les jugera – ils devront être jugés avant cette date. Et ils devront comprendre que l’immunité ne peut être assimilée à l’impunité » , a déclaré Francesca Albanese dans une interview à Intercept.
Une plainte contre le Leyen, le président de la Commission européenne, a été déposée devant la Cour pénale internationale en mai dernier pour complicité de crimes de guerre et de crimes contre l’humanité à Gaza. Il ne faut pas en rester là.
Au-delà de l’obligation de rendre des comptes concernant les dirigeants de l’UE, Francesca Albanese a indiqué qu’elle travaillait sur un rapport qui exposerait les banques, les fonds de pension, les entreprises de technologie et les universités pour complicité dans la destruction de Gaza.
« Toutes les personnes impliquées dans l’occupation illégale, en lui fournissant un appui, aident et encouragent les violations du droit international et les violations des droits de l’homme, et un certain nombre d’entre elles constituent des crimes », a-t-elle déclaré.
« Il peut y avoir une responsabilité individuelle pour ceux qui ont aidé et encouragé ou rendu possible ces crimes », a affirmé courageusement la rapporteure des Nations Unies qu’Israël n’a toujours pas réussi à dégommer, et qui fait face à des menaces de mort.
« Ma sécurité est devenue moins sûre depuis que j’ai présenté mon rapport « Anatomie du génocide », a déclaré Francesca Albanese. « J’ai reçu des appels au milieu de la nuit pour moi, les membres de ma famille, mes enfants. Bien sûr, je prends des précautions, j’ai une protection. Mais en même temps, je ne me laisserai pas paralyser à cause de ces techniques de type mafieux ».
« Je viens d’un endroit qui m’a appris que la mafia tue par silence », a-t-elle déclaré. « Il tue quand les gens ne réagissent pas. C’est pourquoi je suis tellement motivée dans ce que je fais et je continuerai », a conclu la rapporteure de l’ONU.
The UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories has just accused EU officials, including European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, of complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity for their support of Israel's genocide in Gaza.
"I'm not someone who says: 'History will judge them—they must be judged before then. And they must understand that immunity cannot be equated with impunity," Francesca Albanese said in an interview with the Intercept.
A complaint against von der Leyen, the European Commission President, was filed with the International Criminal Court last May for complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. It must not stop there.
Beyond holding EU leaders to account, Francesca Albanese indicated that she was working on a report that would expose banks, pension funds, technology companies, and universities for complicity in the destruction of Gaza.
"All those involved in the illegal occupation, by providing support to it, are aiding and abetting violations of international law and human rights abuses, and several of these constitute crimes," she said.
"There can be individual accountability for those who aided and abetted or enabled these crimes," courageously asserted the UN rapporteur, whom Israel has still not managed to oust and who is facing death threats.
"My safety has become less secure since I presented my report, 'Anatomy of Genocide,'" said Francesca Albanese. "I have received calls in the middle of the night for myself, my family members, my children. Of course, I take precautions, I have protection. But at the same time, I won't let myself be paralyzed by these mafia-style techniques."
"I come from a place that taught me that the mafia kills by silence," she said. "It kills when people don't react. That's why I'm so motivated in what I do and I will continue," the UN rapporteur concluded.
Women for the toxification of men's brains by adrenaline?
Mahmoud's words are wise but grammar/gender should change, some day, if not today hopefully soon. In Israel ALL women and men must serve a minimum sentence in the military and receive retraining all the way to their 40s. Really, as long as there is inequality there will be armies protecting it, and being in the army is not as bad as being in "the wrong army"
Israël a bombardé 4 pays au cours des 12 dernières heures(#Palestine🇵🇸,#Syrie🇸🇾, #Liban🇱🇧 et #Yémen🇾🇪) Ils pourraient bombarder la moitié de l'humanité et les médias continueraient à dire qu'ils sont les victimes.
Whether you’re a web designer or working with web design services, getting this right delivers a site that’s both eye-catching and lightning-fast.
WordPress is a go-to platform for websites, but a theme’s true strength lies in how you customize and optimize it. Whether you’re a web designer or working with web design services, getting this right delivers a site that’s both eye-catching and lightning-fast.
Here’s your guide to making it happen.
What Makes a WordPress Theme?
A theme sets your site’s visual vibe—layouts, fonts, colors, and more. Some are sleek and minimal; others are packed with features you might not use.
The downside? A heavy theme can slow your site or restrict design tweaks. Smart theme selection and optimization are critical for a site that performs.
Step 1: Start with a Lightweight Theme
Your theme’s code drives performance. A bloated theme with extras like sliders or animations can drag even the best hosting down.
Look for themes with: - Clean, efficient code - Minimal or no bundled plugins - Fast demo load times - Simple, flexible design
Try themes like GeneratePress, Neve, or Hello Elementor for speed and versatility.
Step 2: Customize with Precision
Customization lets you craft a unique site, but overcomplicating things can hurt speed.
Focus on: - Colors and typography: Use a consistent look with one or two fonts. - Layout tweaks: Stick to theme settings to avoid heavy builders. - Header/footer: Include only essentials like your logo and menu. - Homepage: Design for user goals, not visual overload.
When partnering with a web designer, avoid vague asks like “make it pop.” Be clear about what your site needs to do.
Step 3: Eliminate Bloat
Themes often come with features like portfolio grids or testimonial sliders. If they’re not essential, disable or remove them to reduce code.
Same for plugins—install only what you need. A leaner site loads faster.
Step 4: Prioritize Mobile Performance
With mobile users dominating traffic, your theme must excel on smaller screens.
Check for: - Smooth, responsive navigation - Tap-friendly buttons - Clear text - Fast load times on mobile networks
Web design services should emphasize mobile-first design, but always verify their work.
Step 5: Boost Site Speed
A fast site keeps visitors and improves SEO. Use these strategies:
Caching: Plugins like WP Rocket or LiteSpeed Cache pre-load pages for quick delivery.
Image optimization: Compress files with tools like ShortPixel or Imagify without quality loss.
Reduce scripts: Limit external fonts, embeds, or trackers.
CDN: Cloudflare or BunnyCDN serves content from nearby servers.
Minify code: Trim CSS and JavaScript with plugins or manual edits.
Step 6: Test Performance
Don’t assume your site’s fast—measure it with tools like: - GTmetrix - Google PageSpeed Insights - Pingdom
Track metrics like: - First contentful paint (FCP) - Time to interactive (TTI) - Total page size - HTTP request count
Small tweaks, like compressing an image, can yield big speed gains.
Step 7: Keep Themes Lean
A theme should be the foundation, not the whole system. Use plugins for specific tasks:
Forms (e.g., WPForms)
E-commerce (e.g., Easy Digital Downloads)
SEO (e.g., SEOPress)
This modular setup keeps your site flexible and easy to update.
When to Hire a Pro
If your site’s slow or looks off, a web designer can step in. They can: - Create child themes to protect customizations - Remove unnecessary code - Optimize without breaking the design - Ensure speed and SEO are solid
Choose web design services that prioritize performance over just visuals.
Final Word
WordPress themes can elevate or hinder your site. Pick a lightweight theme, customize thoughtfully, and optimize for speed.
A fast, user-focused site always beats a slow, flashy one. Test often, streamline where you can, and get help when needed.

Muammar Gaddafi: Many say that communism has failed, there is an image of communism, but no one has seen it. You and I did not manage to meet him, but he still remains a matter of the future, in order to continue moving towards him, we had to retreat. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.

Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.

“Steampunk is so cool, it’s kind of a shame the steam era ended.”
“It didn’t”
“Huh?”
“Nuclear power stations, heaps of factories, even coal stations use steam. The sugar cane mill near where I grew up has been running on the same steam engine for a hundred and twenty years.”
“Heh, ok I guess”
“And my watch, look, it has fold-out cooling towers!”
“Is…is that a coal fired wristwatch?”
“Eeew, no, too dangerous. Thorium and molten salt”
I love it how the steam era just never ends. From steam as turbine driver to steam as easily piped process heat, steam isn't going away soon.
Favourite bit is how gas turbines generating electricity can increase output by recovering heat from exhaust gases to drive a steam turbine – Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT). IIRC, there's an aluminium plant in WA that splits the steam between running a turbine and providing process heat, as required.

Deng Xiaoping: Their talk about human rights, freedom and democracy is only designed to safeguard the interests of the strong, rich countries, which take advantage of their strength to bully weak countries, and which pursue hegemony and practice power politics.

The mining and aggregate industries are rapidly evolving, with growing demands for flexibility, efficiency, and fast project execution. In this dynamic environment, the mobile crushing plant has become a critical solution for producers looking to enhance productivity and reduce operational delays. Unlike stationary systems, mobile crushers can be transported directly to construction or mining sites, delivering on-site crushing capabilities that reduce the need for material hauling and processing delays.
With its increasing popularity, it's essential to understand why businesses choose a mobile stone crusher machine(maquina chancadora de piedra) and how it can impact the performance of operations involved in quarrying, road building, demolition, and concrete recycling.
Why Mobility Matters in Crushing Operations
On-Site Crushing Saves Time and Costs
A mobile stone crusher eliminates the need for long-distance transport of raw materials to fixed crushing facilities. Instead, materials such as rocks, demolition debris, and recycled concrete can be processed directly on-site. This reduces transportation costs, speeds up production, and minimizes environmental impact.
Mobile plants are particularly useful in remote locations, temporary construction sites, or projects that require short-term crushing capacity. Whether it's a mining operation or a roadwork project, these portable systems allow you to respond quickly to changing job site needs.
Easy Setup and Quick Relocation
Unlike traditional crushing systems that require significant time and infrastructure to install, mobile plants can be deployed and operational within a short period. This means companies can begin producing aggregates almost immediately upon arrival at the site.
For contractors and construction firms working under tight schedules, the mobility and rapid deployment of these plants offer an undeniable advantage.
Core Functions of a Mobile Crushing Plant
Versatile Crushing Capabilities
Most mobile stone crusher plants(planta chancadora movil) are equipped with components such as a stone crusher machine, screening unit, and conveyor system. Depending on the model and configuration, they can crush a wide range of materials including granite, limestone, concrete, and gravel.
From coarse crushing with jaw crushers to fine shaping with impact or cone crushers, mobile plants offer the flexibility to meet various project specifications. Some advanced systems even allow for quick adjustments to output size and production volume.
Ideal for Recycling and Urban Projects
Mobile crushing plants are particularly effective in urban environments or demolition sites. A concrete crusher installed on a mobile unit can process old buildings, sidewalks, and concrete slabs into reusable aggregate. This not only supports sustainable construction practices but also reduces the volume of material sent to landfills.
Using a stone crusher machine(trituradora de hormigón) to recycle waste material on-site promotes a circular economy, where old materials are transformed into valuable new resources.
Benefits Beyond Crushing
Reduced Equipment Footprint
For companies working in space-restricted sites, a mobile plant requires minimal setup area. This compact footprint allows for more efficient use of space and safer working conditions.
Better Cost Control and ROI
Although mobile plants may have a higher initial price compared to individual crushers, the total cost of ownership is often lower. Businesses save on transportation, installation, and labor while increasing their ability to adapt to multiple jobs. Over time, the faster returns on investment make mobile crushing a sound long-term strategy.
Flexibility to Scale Operations
Whether you’re scaling up for a large infrastructure project or downsizing after a job completion, mobile crushing plants can be adjusted accordingly. Units can be added, removed, or reconfigured based on the changing needs of the operation.
Conclusion
The decision to buy a mobile crushing plant is driven by the need for flexibility, speed, and cost-effectiveness in aggregate and construction material production. Whether you're working in mining, quarrying, or recycling, a mobile stone crusher empowers your business to operate more efficiently and sustainably.
Combining a robust stone crusher machine with modern mobility features, these plants provide the performance of traditional systems with the added benefit of on-site processing. When combined with the ability to serve as a reliable concrete crusher for demolition and recycling work, the mobile crushing plant becomes a powerful asset for any construction or aggregate-producing company.
If you're looking to enhance your crushing capabilities and adapt to the fast-paced demands of the modern industry, a mobile crushing plant may be the perfect solution.

The German communist urban guerrilla group known as the Red Army Faction (RAF) kidnapped the German businessman Hanns Martin Schleyer on this day in 1977. But did you know that Schleyer was a former SS officer? A fact often ignored in the historical narrative. Schleyer’s aggressive anti-communist views, his history with the Nazi Party, and later his position as a prominent member of the right-wing Christian Democratic Union made him one of the main enemies of the 1968 student movement and a target for the RAF’s kidnapping operation. The RAF used Schleyer to blackmail the West German government into releasing imprisoned RAF members, including two of its founders, Andreas Baader and Gudrun Ensslin. After all the imprisoned members were found dead in their jail cells, Schleyer was killed by the RAF. Early in his life, Schleyer became an enthusiastic Nazi follower and quickly rose in the ranks of the Nazi Party. After being held as a prisoner of war following the defeat of Nazi Germany, Schleyer was released in 1948 and became one of the most influential German businessmen. He was simultaneously president of the Confederation of German Employers’ Association and the Federation of German Industries. The RAF was a West German communist, anti-imperialist urban guerrilla group that emerged from the 1968 student movement. It was founded in 1970 and remained active until 1998. Due to the RAF’s numerous activities against the West German state and its NATO allies, it became one of the leading communist urban guerrilla groups in Europe.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

Mx linux is a bad chioce if you cant answer this yourself because its going to differ from most other debian distros. You probably want to use normal debian or linux mint if you are still learning.
To answer anyway; First install lightrpd using apt, and then firgure out the differences between sysvinit and systemd so you can properly configure the server to start.
If you just use debian instead, "sudo apt install lighttpd" would be enough to get everything started.
I think you know its not just a matter of "clicking a setting in a gui once"
Why would you choose a non systemd based distro only to just switch it over to systemd? Why over complicate thinga for a new user who is clearly just starting out? Just use normal debian!
I tried it about a week ago but since i have zero interest in alternatives to systemd or gui tools I find its easy to just install something that uses the things i want by default.
If you enjoy having that extea option and managing it with gui tools then im glad mx works for you, but it seems overcomplicated with no practical benefit to me.

I didn’t want to be sick of course. But I got “the call,” and although I resisted, when you’re called you’re called. Being sick is my vocation. I didn’t choose it, it chose me!
I am so good at being sick. I am especially good at hating it. Real passion there.

Kim Jong-Il: The US imperialists are most fearful of the single-hearted unity of our entire army and the people behind the great Party, and resort to every conceivable scheme to break it. While persisting with their aggressive military maneuvers, the US imperialists and their acolytes try to slander us under the signboard of “human rights” and “democracy,” but this is wild dream. The “defence of human rights” and “democracy” the imperialist reactionaries advocate are nothing other than sophistry to hide their intervention in and hegemonic moves towards other countries. It is preposterous to slander our Republic, which is the motherland of the people, and our society that is united single-heartedly, with such far-fetched sophistry.

Mikhail Kilev: No one doubted his absolute devotion to the revolution, socialism and the interests of the working class. His principles were unshakable and his person incorruptible. He had a capable and incisive intelligence, capable of analyzing complex situations and plotting courses of action accurately clear and thorough. He was decisive, calm and firm even under great stress. He had an unrivaled talent for organization. He had a great ability to undergo a high pace of work. His lifestyle, his way of acting at work and in dealing with others he denotes great modesty and simplicity. It was the combination of these characteristics and the undeniable achievements of the Soviet Union under his leadership that gave Stalin towering authority and earned him the respect of his comrades, of the people in general and also of many of his enemies. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

in reply to ija chouf • • •The UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories has just accused EU officials, including European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, of complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity for their support of Israel's genocide in Gaza.
"I'm not someone who says: 'History will judge them—they must be judged before then. And they must understand that immunity cannot be equated with impunity," Francesca Albanese said in an interview with the Intercept.
A complaint against von der Leyen, the European Commission President, was filed with the International Criminal Court last May for complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. It must not stop there.
Beyond holding EU leaders to account, Francesca Albanese indicated that she was working on a report that would expose banks, pension funds, technology companies, and universities for complicity in the destruction of Gaza.
"All those involved in the illegal occupation, by providing support to it, are aiding and abetting violations of international law and human rights abuses, and several of these constitute crimes," she said.
"There can be individual accountability for those who aided and abetted or enabled these crimes," courageously asserted the UN rapporteur, whom Israel has still not managed to oust and who is facing death threats.
"My safety has become less secure since I presented my report, 'Anatomy of Genocide,'" said Francesca Albanese. "I have received calls in the middle of the night for myself, my family members, my children. Of course, I take precautions, I have protection. But at the same time, I won't let myself be paralyzed by these mafia-style techniques."
"I come from a place that taught me that the mafia kills by silence," she said. "It kills when people don't react. That's why I'm so motivated in what I do and I will continue," the UN rapporteur concluded.
