The execution of Turki Al-Jasser encapsulates the grim reality of freedom of expression in #SaudiArabia under Mohammed bin Salman’s rule. The country has turned into a vast prison, where the hand of repression reaches intellectuals, scholars, and anyone who dares to speak freely — under an authoritarian regime that tolerates no dissenting voice. #StopSaudiExecution

Raser jetzt zu Fuß unterwegs


Beamte der Polizeiinspektion Brannenburg führten gestern erneut Geschwindigkeitskontrollen am Sudelfeld durch. Trotz der häufigen Geschwindigkeitsmessungen am Sudelfeld mussten erneut mehrere Fahrzeugführer beanstandet werden. Tagesschnellster war ein 30-jähriger Porschefahrer aus München, der bei erlaubten 60 km/h mit 114 km/h gemessen wurde. Den Fahrer erwartet nun ein Bußgeld in Höhe von über 300 Euro, zwei Punkte in Flensburg sowie ein einmonatiges Fahrverbot.

So I guess that all those israeli who used to go and sit on the top of a hill and watch #GazaGenocide while sitting on a couch, while playing music and drinking and laughing, aren't laughing anymore, right?

Ce mois-ci, je reviens vous parler
d'écriture en essayant de décortiquer trois genre litteraires pas si différents : la fiction panier, le hope punk et le solar punk. Des genres litteraires qui
cherchent en partie à s'affranchir des combats, des guerres et des conflits. Mais à quoi ça ressemble et
quelles sont difficultées liées à ces genres ?

La plupart sont les difficultés que j'ai rencontrées dans ma première tentative pour écrire mon roman "Belle du désert". N'hésitez pas à aller écouter le podcast "Dans les pas d'une histoire" (lien en linktree) pour en savoir plus !

L'article du mois est ici et en linktree :

Just wanted to show off the lowest end hardware I ever ran Linux on


Single core, 32 bit CPU, can't even do video playback on VLC. But it kinda works for some offline work, like text editing, and even emulation through zsnes! It's crazy how Linux keeps old hardware like this running.

Thankfully though, this laptop CPU is upgradable, and so is the ram, so I'm planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century 😄

in reply to merci3

thats my current laptop

Edit: im exagerating but I really have 20-yr 32-bit Dell laptops running minimal debian linux. and my current laptop is 10+ yrs old Lenovo which I already replaced its screen, rams, keyboard, bluetooth, usb ports... and it's still working flawlessly for daily tasks, video/music editing, coding and programming, internet browsing 😁

A great example of what heroic stories can look like in a caring and healing society: „They Remade the Battle of Helm‘s Deep in a Hospital Show, and It‘s Insane“ by Like Stories of Old on #youtube. #solarPunk #careWorkers #thePitt youtu.be/Lsc8mGKkP5I?si=btuo2-…

I‘ve just finished the incredible „The Dawn of Everything“ by David Graeber —@DGI — and David Wengrow in the German version called „Anfänge“. Such a powerful book that I highly recommend to anyone interested in #solarpunk. Realising that our current systems are not a given. That another world has always been possible throughout history. It put a bright smile on my face time and time again.

Just bought #NeoFeud by @silverspookgames

I first saw it here on Mastodon, I followed the developer as I was intrigued by the visuals. I added it to my wishlist some time ago and now finally bought it.
There's so much to play at the moment but I hope I will get round it soon.

#Gaming #Videogames

#Apple's #News+ is just a pile of 💩

It has a reasonable selection of articles and newspapers, but:

* Shows horrible, clunky ads in the middle of stories 🤬
* Insists on continuing to show articles from rags I've explicitly blocked, like the Torygraph 🤬
* Destroys the relationship between news media and their readers, no doubt to their great disadvantage in the long run 🤬🤬

"I want to thank this community again for reaching out to help us with extraordinary generosity over the last couple of weeks. Substantial donations enabled Given to get specialist care for her heart condition and both of us to remain in Almerimar so that she could be monitored while undergoing an essential change of medication.

"My own health needed urgent attention, too. And your help allowed me to begin a process that, as it turns out, will need to continue in Italy (where a reciprocal healthcare agreement with Australia will provide me some access to further testing).

"We need a little more help to tackle the more than 1,000 nautical miles that lie ahead of us. Our plan is to complete essential work on the boat this week, then leave Almerimar, finally, next weekend and shakedown Wrack (and ourselves) with a passage of around 160 nautical miles towards Alicante, where our son will join us to lend a hand on the long, open-water passage to Sicily and further west..."

This 73 year old woman went to a protest yesterday by myself. My very comfortable friends were not interested, my son was working so I went on my own. I decided to pass on the HUGE demonstration in downtown San Diego (estimated at 61,000) and went to Del Mar/Sorrento Valley because I knew it would be smaller The Hands Off demonstration I attended in April was way too intense for me, even though it was joyous.
It was a good decision. I participated, I was welcomed by strangers and we were supported by 99% of the passersby.
This is what democracy looks like.
Gray but still involved.

There is so much wrong with this.
Like how can they be so different, they have the same parents.

Why is the younger sister bigger in every direction?

Is this the danger of veganism. Greta has seemingly no boobs at all.

Both sisters retarded in their own way, proves that the parents must be really inept at parenting.

One is a Political retard and the other want's to get into showbusiness but behave like a faggot.

Perhaps both of them are trannies after all...

These nearly life-size Fremont Style (~300 CE - ~1300 CE) anthropomorphic forms in Moab, Utah appear to hold shields and spears. The Fremont lived mostly north of the Colorado river and appear to have sometimes overlapped and interacted with the Ancestral Puebloan people to the south.

Cliff swallow nests by the well-known Chaco 1054 Supernova rock art panel. Chinese records indicate July 4 1054 as when this "guest star" appeared, when the moon was nearly at first quarter. This supernova created the Crab Nebula. Halley's Comet appeared in 1066. At the middle bottom are concentric circles and faint red pigment flowing to the right, plausibly a record of that comet's appearance.

Western San Juan Basketmaker-style anthropomorphic forms along the San Juan river (~1,000 BCE - ~400 CE). Forms are roughly life-size. The figure on the right may be wearing a mask. Some of those who see these forms as shamanic theorize the hanging feet represent an altered state. Raft trips out of Bluff, Utah stop at this panel.

This exceptional Barrier Canyon Style painting (~2000 BCE or earlier - ~400 CE) is being covered up by calcium carbonate. Most BCS anthropomorphic forms are missing arms or legs as if wearing a robe but these forms even have fingers. The companion birds and snakes are a common feature of this style. Note the birds around the headdress. These forms have been pecked on, possibly by others, more on this to follow.

"These Barrier Canyon Style figures in Horseshoe Canyon, Utah had their faces and torsos pecked—even the dog (tallest form, ~12in/30cm). Besides modern vandalism, some rock art seems to have been ritually pecked, mudded, or scrubbed, not always prehistorically. In 1980, Moab's Courthouse Wash rock art paintings were scrubbed. One theory proposes later shamanic cultures did this to weaken the images' power."

💥Announcement! Monday 16.06.2025💥

🔥Rally against the opening of the Amazon Tower🔥

Monday, 16.06.2025 | 10:30 a.m. | Warschauer Brücke 10243 Berlin

Arrival: U1, U3, S3, S5, S7, S9, S75, S85, Tram 10, Bus 300, 347 Warschauer Straße | Tram M13 Revaler Straße

📣 Call to action: asanb.noblogs.org/?p=11913 - @berlinvamazon

🤬 This coming Monday morning it’s happening:

The Amazon Tower at Warschauer Brücke will be officially inaugurated. Kai Wegner has announced his attendance to toast the crowning achievement of the “Mediaspree” development.

🚨The red carpet was rolled out for Amazon a long time ago.

We couldn’t stop them from moving in. But the tech giant clearly feels the strong headwind from the neighborhood and is now trying to polish its battered image with social washing.

If we continue to make their lives as difficult as possible, we might at least be able to deter the next corporation from setting up shop here. Because contrary to all the grand promises of “regional economic development,” all we actually get from this is rising rents and further displacement.

zoomx

works on all X environments


pretty light, reliable simple, and the code is simple enough you can hack even if you don't know C
You can switch window to fullscreen and increments of zooming
Create a shortcut key/bind on your rc file (openbox/rc.xml jwmrc ..etc) for your key pair to trigger it, Ctrl + Ctrl - for zoom in out or Ctrl PgUp/Dn Esc to exit.

There is the classic xorg-xmag as alternative but this is lighter and less complicated

Hier, il a fait 49 degrés dans plus de 13 villes en Iran, et 50.3°C a même été atteint pour une région. En plus d'être bombarbés, les civils voient leurs conditions de vie rendues encore plus difficile à cause du changement climatique.

L'armée israélienne a attaqué les structures énergétiques de l'Iran et il y a d'ores et déjà 40% du pays dont l'accès à l'électricité est rendu difficile ou impossible.

49 degrés, sans climatisation. Des civils qui n'ont rien demandé.

From a provocative teenager to the primary architect of U.S. fascism: How the grandchild of a Jewish immigrant from Tsarist Russia turned into a white supremacist arsehole

His ancestors fled antisemitic persecution in tsarist Russia - the very type of ethnic targeting that his policies now echo. His maternal uncle, neuropsychologist David Glosser, publicly condemned Miller in 2018, calling him a “hypocrite” who has “become the architect of immigration policies that repudiate the very foundation of our family’s life in this country.”

Tara Setmayer, former Republican communications director, warns that Miller can now “use the powers of the federal government to unleash his fascist worldview.” His strategy of “flooding the zone” with executive orders aims to overwhelm judicial and media oversight - a classic authoritarian tactic.
