On May 31 - June 1 of this year, Singapore hosted the latest edition of the Shangri-La Dialogue, marking the 22nd iteration of this international forum.
Anarchism is structurally anti-Semitic, because anyone who rejects states in principle also rejects the State of Israel!
I am very intelligent.
Edit upon op's reply: I absolutely agree with you, and because people can be oblivious a lot, yes the original message was absolutely always satirical.
Renowned for the world’s tallest trees, Redwood’s landscapes span from open prairies and oak woodlands to pristine rivers and untamed coastline. This ancient home has supported people for thousands of years.
100% Muslim dominated countries, wouldn't they be too afraid to go anywhere close to that border? Some beach resort in #Haifa is as far as they would be willing to go.
Oh they make their way. I'm sure there'll be a nice plane waiting for them there. Even a better idea to throw them off a plane over Iran, parachutes are optional.
Iran’s official news agency IRNA says Iranian forces are carrying out a hybrid attack with drones accompanying the missiles targeting Israeli cities, with explosions heard in Israeli cities.
The 58 minutes of coffee is necessary in preparation of the all-nighter that will follow once he realize that some of the information is hallucinated and he now needs to manually look at all the sources and check them
Israel hat in der Nacht auf Freitag Iran angegriffen. Nach israelischen Angaben griffen Kampfflugzeuge mehrere Ziele in der Islamischen Republik an. Dabei seien Militäreinrichtungen und Atomanlagen getroffen worden.
I'll look at it but man I already got things exactly the way I want them. Took me months to tweak things and get things just the way they are. Really don't want to lose my dock and menu bar! 😀
How about just NOT supporting companies? Having an European company control what gets shown to you is not much of an improvement over having an American one do it...
There are decentralized search engines like SearXNG
Yeah I just find the title very weird, to me it makes more sense to choose a search engine because it respects your privacy than to "support European companies"
I hadn't read the "Need help choosing?" part of the picture, so still oupsie on my part 😅 I wish it mentioned that it's decentralized... but considering it's aimed at people using Google, I guess that'd be like trying to convert people from twitter/reddit to mastodon/lemmy by geeking out about decentralization and ActivityPub. No one cares, aside from the people who are already using it 😅
For now I’ll stick with SearXNG, it’s among the first things I get up and running when I distro hop, but I’m glad there are other non-US options to try.
Donald Trump deployed US military to repress protesters in Los Angeles, California against abuse of immigrants by ICE. Empire's oppressive tactics return home
Trump’s Army parade cost $45M—people are clutching pearls over that. Meanwhile, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cost $2.8 billion per day. That means you could run 62 Trump parades for the price of one day of foreign war. Maybe calm down. Honoring the Army stateside for once isn’t the fiscal apocalypse.

I am proud to say my father got me a subscription to this magazine when I first learned to read, in print. It was delivered to the house. I was amazed. I trust them.
"They all want to cover my story, but their EDITORS say no… #CNN wants to interview me; but they say they can’t do it because they don’t want problems with the Israeli censor. #BBC is doing the same thing.

After yet another crackdown on ad-blockers, YouTube users are noticing videos that load slowly and direct them to a support page about turning off ad-blocking extensions.
If it takes too long to load I just use yt-dlp to download the video or whole playlist and watch it later. Do I care that it's putting additional strain on YouTube's servers? Indeed, I'm devastated and overtaken with guilt 😂 These are tears of regret, I swear 😂
In the audio of this video, you can hear a poem that, in a native language of Mayan roots, was presented at the arts encounter “RebelArte y RevelArte,” in April 2025. The poem presented by the 3 young Zapatista women from Caracol Jacinto Canek is called “Soy Mujer” or “I am a Woman” or “I am an Indigenous Woman,”, and was made with a previous work of investigation of what is talked about in the groups as women that we are in that zone. The poem is from the education promoters of that area who, in common, came up with the idea. They talked, but above all they listened to women who were already of age (of judgment, as we say here), their grandmothers and great-grandmothers; they talked to their mothers and older sisters; and they looked at themselves in the mirror of their being young Zapatista women today. Then they looked for who might present it and these young women joined in. The video shows images of the courses in Herbalism, Midwifery, Bonesetters and General Health, as well as the advances in the construction of the Quirófano and bicycle workshop, with the participation of Zapatista women compañeras.

In the translation of the compas of that puy it would be, more or less, like this:
“I am an indigenous woman / running into problems / in my gaze you see the gleam of sadness / in every step I take there is a trace, a mark / of the wounds that have made me, that have hurt me / men and capitalism. It’s not like being a rich woman / but it’s different / the rich also look down on me / just like men. I dressed as they wanted / to forget that I am woman that I am / the eye of man / turned me into a thing / that I am not worthy / that I am less / that I am weak, without strength / so that I am very unhappy / so I learned that life is shit / suffering led me to hate my body / to hate what I am / to forget that I am beautiful, beautiful / that entered my head. The word Zapatista became / like my best friend / or my salvation / today is my beginning / because I learned / to love myself as I am / and to love my being a woman / I learned that I was not born / to serve or to please men / or to obey someone / but I was born to love myself and to love myself / as the woman that I am / and I will not be happy until they stop exploiting me. Today I celebrate for being the woman that I am / for my courage / for my strength / because I have understood that I am a woman. From now on I will be a woman / with a firm step / determined to fight for life. My brave heart / beats with strength to be free / my heart, courage and strength / will help me to be free / with the butterfly / I will go forward / with my fighting spirit.”
But every female ear, another poetry.
Other Tzeltal-speaking compañeras, but from other areas (Tzeltal varies from one area to another) explain: “what the poem says is that she was sad, that she does not get through the day, that the rich despise her for being a woman and also the rich women treat her like she is a thing, not a person. In other words, being a rich woman is not the same as being a poor woman. And being a woman from the city is not the same as being an indigenous woman. The same goes for the men in her town, which is what we call machista.
Then, as pure sadness, she learned to hate herself, that’s how she got in her head, she hates her own body and she even forgot that she is beautiful. And then came the struggle and there she learned that there is nothing left but to fight and now she is learning other things and jobs. And her heart is happy that she is worth it, and that she is beautiful and that she has strength and courage, and that is why she has value as a woman. I believe that this poem was written by a compañera. A Zapatista, that is.
Maybe it is less seen, but when they end their participation with “Long live the women!,” they also shout, we shout, “Long live the Palestinian women!”.
For now that is all our word and our images as the women that we are.

Something that came to mind from @pluralistic 's post that featured a band in Atlanta drowning out some wingnuts formerly known as proud boys with "Bella Ciao".
We don't have artists that have the balls to write and perform protest songs today, do we?
We don't have a Woodie Guthrie, Arlo Guthrie, Joe Hill, Bob Dylan or Billie Holiday.
After what happened to the Dixie Chicks, artists are too afraid of losing 100 followers on Instagram to speak up.

Americans are divided on major issues that the U.S. Supreme Court is due to rule on in the coming weeks, but most agree on one thing - neither Republicans nor Democrats see the nation's top judicial body as politically neutral, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.
Just 20% of respondents to the poll agreed that the Supreme Court is politically neutral while 58% disagreed and the rest either said they did not know or did not respond. Among people who described themselves as Democrats, only 10% agreed it was politically neutral and 74% disagreed, while among Republicans 29% agreed and 54% disagreed.
If you polled people on breathing you’d find 67 to 70% of people in favor of it and 30 to 33% claiming it isn’t American enough because too many foreigners are doing it.
"Israel broke the fragile truce, murdering civilians with increased frequency. The Israeli army shot at close range over a dozen marked medical rescuers and a UN worker, then buried their bodies along with the ambulances. It bombed the last standing school buildings and hospitals. It has starved thousands of Palestinian children, maintaining an almost complete blockade of international humanitarian aid for twelve weeks.
It took the levelling of over 70 per cent of Gaza for Germany’s leader to make such a groundbreaking declaration as “what’s happening in Gaza can no longer be justified by the fight against terrorism.” Merz added that he had “stopped understanding what Israel is trying to achieve,” though Netanyahu and his people openly state that the goal of the ongoing “military operation” is the annexation of the Gaza Strip.
The German government even considered such “radical” steps as stopping weapons shipments to Israel – as reported by Israeli public television Kan 11, Tel Aviv undertook intensive diplomatic efforts against such ideas. With positive results – Johann Wadephul, head of Germany’s Foreign Ministry, has already assured that deliveries are not under threat."

Israel is conditioning aid delivery to force Gazans south into ‘concentration zones.’ This scheme has begun to stall, but that only portends greater brutality.
As someone now living in Europe, I find the US protests mild and small. When Europeans protest, they protest. I mean, my native Greece saw a massive protest in Feb, well over a million went out, in a country of ~9 million. This is how you do it:
Over a million Greeks took to the streets all over Greece and abroad on the anniversary of the Tempi tragedy. So far no one has paid for the fallacies of the...

It's never made sense to me that some people refuse to drink water even if they know it keeps you functioning properly. The same people will complain of constipation or dry skin but don't want to do the thing that fixes their issues.

🎙️ LINUX AND OPEN SOURCE NEWS PODCAST: Listen to the latest Linux and open source news, with more in depth coverage, and ad-free! podcast.thelinuxexp.com
00:00 Intro 00:46 Sponsor: 100$ free credit for your Linux or Gaming server 01:44 Nextcloud: self hosted and open source 03:53 Syncthing: just FOSS file sync 05:17 Proton Drive: if you already use Proton mail 06:46 Cozy Cloud: French Connection 08:13 pCloud: competitive prices with encryption 09:28 MEGA: massive encrypted storage 10:54 Zoho: all in one workspace 12:24 And more... 13:19 Sponsor: Get a device that runs Linux perfectly 14:16 Support the channel
Nextcloud file storage is pretty powerful. It handles folders, you can favorite files and folders to get back to them easily, you can tag anything you like, you can share anything either with selected people, or with a public link, you can even add comments to any file, and it supports versioning as well to restore older versions if you want.
On top of that, you can also mount that storage as webdav, in any good file manager. On Linux, with GNOME and KDE, this happens automatically when you configure a nextcloud account in the online accounts settings.
And of course, you have a desktop client that lets you sync files either from a Nextcloud folder, or even from outside that folder, to make sure your files are where you want them.
Syncthing isn't exactly cloud storage, it doesn't store files on a cloud server, it just syncs them from one computer to the other, in real time. So you setup syncthing on your laptop and your desktop, and it will send files back and forth between both devices, without any intermediary in between.
If you're already a ProtonMail customer, you might just want to look at Proton Drive.
It's an end to end encrypted solution, hosted in Switzerland, with relatively strong privacy laws, that don't really matter since everything is encrypted anyways, it's not like someone could look at what you stored, since files are encrypted on your device before being sent to the cloud.
It's also open source, and it obviously integrates well with the other Proton tools, like Mail or Calendar. Even though it's encrypted, you can still share files with others without file size limits, as well as password protect files, define expiration dates for links, and more.
Another open source alternative is Cozy Cloud. It's available for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS and Windows, and it gives you 5GB for free, with additional tiers at 50Gigs for 2 euros 99 per month, and 1TB for 9 euros 98. Still more expensive than Google, but also more private.
It also has auto import features from your phone camera roll to your drive, and can also automatically import certain documents from more than 100 providers, like your bills, health refunds, bank statements, and more, if you want.
pCloud is an option I used extensively in the past for all my cloud storage. It's not open source, but it has optional encryption features if you want to make sure that you're the only one that can look at your stuff. They're on the affordable side, with 500Gigs costing you 50 euros per year, or about 4 euros per month, and 2 terabytes for 100 euros a year, or a bit more than 8 euros per month.
If what you need is massive storage space and you don't want to self host, then I think Mega is your only option. Their base plans are more expensive than others, at 5 euros per month for 400 Gigs, but they can go up to 16Tb for 30 euros per month, which is a LOT of storage for not that much money, considering. The 2TB plan is on par with other options, at 10 euros per month.
And I can't conclude this video without mentioning Zoho. If you don't really care all that much about privacy or open source, but you still want to ditch big tech, then Zoho is probably your best bet. they have replacements for EVERYTHING google does, and a lot more on top of that, and prices are relatively inexpensive.
