Santiago, Black May 2025
Statement of the claim of direct action at the University of Santiago de Chile.
«… I consider that the dignity of a person comes first, by not giving up with respect to their ideas, by standing firm, that no matter how much they try to overwhelm us with adversity, with insane violence (I consider that there is healthy violence), with punishments, in short, with everything, if you conform and keep quiet and give up and doubt, you are liquidated… Ideas without actions are worthless, it is theoretical shit, therefore idea and action must be and are one and the same thing.”
In the early morning of May 22, 2009, the anarchist comrade Maurcio Morales fell in combat, as a result of the anticipated detonation of an explosive device that would be placed in the disgusting Gendarmerie School of $hile.
As an affinity we remember the life and dedication of a young man consistent with his ideas who built community spaces, libraries, social centers, workshops, activities for children and media.
We also remember his courage, bravery and decision in daring and attacking the jailers, assuming all the risks and consequences that opposing this system implies.
The bombs keep ringing,
the shots continue to be fired,
we are still their nightmare and eternal headache…
Even if they persecute us…
We will continue on the offensive.
ACTION:
In the afternoon, as anarchist affinities, we burst into the daily life of the university to block traffic and confront the disgusting police in memory of our comrade Mauricio Morales (punky mauri).
For our action we have numerous tires and different types of miguelitos (spikes).
We also carried a large number of incendiary bombs and artifices.
In the course of this, the “citizen heroes” who dared to intervene in the action were physically and verbally attacked, such as a taxi driver taking one of the “miguelito” on when trying to advance in the middle of the barricade. The same fate befell people who admitted to recording and shamelessly insulted the comrades a few meters away.
Let the “correct” citizens, the lovers of order, security and the law know, that those who stand in the way and act like police will be treated with the same hatred they wish for us…
Amid the smoke that could be seen blocks away, the convoy of the C.O.P. group of carabineros approached, which was received with an intermittent attack of Molotovs and fireworks.
It is in this context that after the desperate maneuver of the driver of one of the cars launching gas, it ends up taking other “miguelitos”, making his car useless until the end of the action.
After a brief and fleeting confrontation, it was possible to see how a large picket of carabineros with a pliers for an imminent entry was grouped behind the water cannon (guanaco).
At that time we had already made the decision to hold out with the last material in our hands.
Their onslaught was not long in coming and they charged with tear gas, water and pepper spray against the gate of the University, to which they were energetically received with insults, stones and Molotov cocktails to delay their entry as much as possible.
We saw you, face to face, stomping, shouting, insulting, running, holding on to each other so as not to fall, with your shields and suits on fire.
They did not succeed.
When we unloaded almost every last cocktail we had left, we quickly retreated from the place without being caught.
They forget…
Keep trying,
they will have the same answer.
Today gasoline ran through their suits…
tomorrow and anywhere will be the blood of their bodies.
Molotovs flew today…
Tomorrow it will be bullets.
LET THE JAILERS TREMBLE
THAT THERE ARE STILL BACKPACKS LIKE MAURY’S AND MINDS LIKE KEVIN’S.
A DEATH IN ACTION IS AN ETERNAL CALL TO SOCIAL WAR.

Hmm wlroots and sway seem to be in an odd spot. I think wlroots released a new breaking-change version and hyprland has updated to support those changes but sway hasn't, so Arch has split wlroots into two packages for the moment.
Not a fan of being hit with "Want to replace package foo with package foo0.18.0?" though because that usually precurses a small fire.
Gonna just give it a few days to see if the new sway RC mainlines.

I'm sick of Kwin. I like the way it looks, but its focus stealing protection is broken. I like to tab out and read ebooks while my games are on loading screens. Some games decide to take focus while they're in the middle of a loading screen. That's why I configured Kwin with high focus stealing protection, and extreme on those particular games. Sadly, it doesn't work. There's no raising protection, and the "keep below other windows" rule is completely nonfunctional. Also, some of the Kwin maintainers are assholes.
I want to try a new window manager. One with strong focus stealing and raising protection. And I'm on NVIDIA, so no Wayland for me yet. Any recommendations?

Und: eine Zukunft, in der Journalisten und Journalistinnen - insbesondere Medienverantwortliche - das aktiv erzeugte und verantwortete Medienmisstrauen wieder umkehren können - sodenn sie nicht sich selbst und damit einen der zentralen Grundpfeiler der Demokratie obsolet machen wollen.

Müssen sich Politiker*innen an Gerichtsurteile halten?
Die Antwort lautet "eigentlich ja", ist aber nicht ganz banal.
Gem. Art. 20 GG ist die Exekutive - an ihrer Spitze die Regierung - "an Recht und Gesetz gebunden". Dazu gehören auch Gerichtsentscheidungen.
Aber: Urteile gelten grundsätzlich nur für die Beteiligten im Prozess und nur, wenn sie vorläufig oder wg. Rechtskraft vollstreckbar sind. Bei dem Verfahren wegen der Zurückweisung an der Grenze waren die Geflüchteten auf Klägerseite, beklagt war die Bundesrepublik Deutschland, vertreten durch die zuständigen Behörden. Der Beschluss ist unanfechtbar, damit bindend. Die Bundesrepublik - und damit auch der Innenminister als Dienstherr der beklagten Behörden - müssten sich also daran halten.
Allerdings gibt es zwei Einschränkungen:
Der Beschluss erging in einem Eilverfahren als vorläufige Entscheidung. Es kann also noch eine Hauptsacheklage durch mehrere Instanzen folgen. Deren Ergebnis könnte anders lauten, auch wenn das nicht wahrscheinlich ist. Bis dahin gilt jedoch die vorläufige Entscheidung. Kein Bürger dürfte mit dem Argument "vielleicht geht die Hauptsache anders aus" oder "ich habe eine andere Rechtsauffassung" bindende Gerichtsentscheidungen ignorieren.
Und: der Beschluss bindet die Bundesrepublik rein formal nur in Bezug auf die drei Kläger, nicht generell. Das Argument zieht aber nur, soweit wirklich Besonderheiten des Einzelfalls entscheidend waren. Das VG Berlin hat hier aber klar auf Grundsätze des Asylrechts abgestellt.
Weil Art. 20 GG so klar regelt, dass sich die Exekutive an geltendes Recht halten muss, fehlen bei uns effektive Mittel, um staatliche Stellen zu zwingen, Einzelfall-Urteile überhaupt und vor allem generell umzusetzen. Das scheinen Dobrindt und Co. hier ausnutzen zu wollen.
Der richtige Weg im demokratischen Rechtsstaat wäre: die Politik müsste Mehrheiten in den zuständigen Parlamenten - in Deutschland und der EU - suchen, um das Recht zu ändern, soweit das Menschen- und Grundrechte zulassen. Dann wären wiederum die Gerichte an dieses Recht gebunden. Bis dahin müsste die Politik das geltende Recht anwenden und Urteile über den Einzelfall hinaus befolgen.
Einfach Urteile zu ignorieren und bewusst das Recht zu brechen, weil effektive Zwangsmittel fehlen, höhlt den Rechtsstaat aus und verstößt gegen die Gewaltenteilung. Denn es wird der Öffentlichkeit suggeriert, "wenn wir nicht machen können, was die [angebliche] Mehrheit will, steht die Justiz dem Volkswillen im Weg". Damit wird die Justiz gezielt delegitimiert.
Diese Art Vorgehen ist eher typisch für den "Umbau" von Demokratien in autoritäre Herrschaft. Diese Feststellung ist nicht alarmistisch. Sie ist sachlich.

Basketball Stars sets itself apart from traditional basketball video games in a few key ways. Instead of full-team simulation, the basketball stars game focuses on the excitement of 1v1 matchups, where two players compete to outscore each other using skills, strategy, and fast reflexes.
This stripped-down format offers a pure and intense form of basketball, emphasizing the player’s individual performance rather than team coordination. You control both offense and defense, which adds to the challenge and enjoyment.
