Scientists in Germany have identified plastic-eating fungi that could offer a glimmer of hope in tackling the problem of millions of tonnes of waste polluting the world's oceans every year.
But they warn that their work is likely to be only a small part of solving plastic pollution, and say there is still a need to reduce food packaging and other debris from entering the environment where it can take decades to degrade.

There is a war against Irish rap trio, #Kneecap. Zionist lobby now tries to bury them because they keep an anti-occupation stance; because they know what occupation means. From the fascists of Fox News theguardian.com/world/2025/aprโฆ to the "soft" but much more effective internet interventions, zionists are trying very hard to silence them.
Let's have a look on their Wikipedia page. This is the permanent page. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kneecap_โฆ In the current format you will read: "The group is also known for their political views, which include Irish republicanism, anti-Zionism, support for Hamas and Hezbollah, and opposition to Donald Trump.[6]"
Something is wrong when you read this. I'm not an expert on how to use Wikipedia, but this obviously has a zionist hand behind it. Went on previous revisions and realized that the comment of their political beliefs has been added from the user Denninithan (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Denโฆ) yesterday - after their strong stance in the festival of Coachella. The change being made on 06:42, 22 April 2025 In a previous version of the page was reading "The group is also known for their left wing political beliefs which include: Irish Republicanism, Anti-zionism, and opposition to Donald Trump.[6]"
It's still important to not let #zionazis cover the truth.
The hunt against #Kneecap continues. Of course from #UK's zionist establishment.
"Criticism of the group has been mounting โ including from Downing Street and the Conservative leader of the opposition, Kemi Badenoch โ since a video emerged from a November 2023 gig appearing to show one person from the group saying: โThe only good Tory is a dead Tory. Kill your local MP.โ
Katie Amess, whose father, David Amess, was murdered by an Islamic State fanatic in his Southend West constituency in 2021, said she was โgobsmacked at the stupidity of somebody or a group of people being in the public eye and saying such dangerous, violent rhetoricโ and demanded an apology.
The band has previously claimed they are facing a โcoordinated smear campaignโ after speaking out about โthe ongoing genocide against the Palestinian peopleโ.
โEstablishment figures, desperate to silence us, have combed through hundreds of hours of footage and interviews, extracting a handful of words from months or years ago to manufacture moral hysteria,โ they said." theguardian.com/music/2025/aprโฆ

โ14,000 babies are about to die of starvation in Gaza, with food sent by the world sitting on the other side of a wall, and once again the #British establishment is focused on us.
โWe deny this โoffenceโ and will vehemently defend ourselves, this is political policing, this is a carnival of distraction.
โWe are not the story, genocide is, as they profit from genocide, they use an โanti-terror lawโ against us for displaying a flag thrown on stage. A charge not serious enough to even warrant their crown court, instead a court that doesnโt have a jury. Whatโs the objective?
โTo restrict our ability to travel. To prevent us speaking to young people across the world. To silence voices of compassion. To prosecute #artists who dare speak out.
โInstead of defending innocent people, or the principles of international law they claim to uphold, the powerful in Britain have abetted slaughter and famine in #Gaza, just as they did in Ireland for centuries. Then, like now, they claim justification.
#Kneecap displayed a message stating: โ#Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people,โ and the words โFuck Israel. Free Palestineโ. Mo Chara, one of the groupโs members, told the audience: โThe #Palestinians have nowhere to go. Itโs their fucking home and theyโre bombing them from the skies. If youโre not calling it a genocide, what the fuck are you calling it?โ Within a week, Kneecapโs US booking agent had dropped them, Fox #News had likened the statements to โ#Nazi #Germanyโ, a handful of summer shows had been cancelled.
And the โdead Toryโ comments? โWhy should I regret it? It was a joke โ weโre playing characters, itโs satirical, itโs a fucking joke. โThe point is, that [video] wasnโt an issue until we said โFree Palestineโ at Coachella.

I think fewer and fewer people in the world are falling for these incessant cries of antisemitism and also the implications that antisemitism is the biggest scourge on the planet.
Frankly, I think even Israel's biggest enabler (the US) is exhausted and beginning to move on. The US regime is interested in material gain, which Israel isn't really offering these days. And even a blind person can see that starving and bombing babies for years is WAY WORSE than disliking Israel. @aral

: Israeli soldiers deliberately fire at Palestinians seeking aid at distribution sites, Haaretz investigation reveals
An investigation by #Haaretz reveals that Israeli soldiers have deliberately fired at Palestinians near aid distribution sites in Gaza over the past month, with commanders ordering troops to shoot at crowds to disperse them despite posing no threat. According to official numbers published by the Gaza's Health Ministry, 549 people have been killed and over 4,000 wounded near aid centers since May 27.
Soldiers described the situation as a "killing field" and "total breakdown" of military ethical codes, with one calling it "Operation Salted Fish" - firing live ammunition, mortars, and grenades at hungry civilians waiting for food.
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation operates four distribution centers that open for just one hour daily. Soldiers report firing at people who arrive early or remain after closing, with no return fire documented. Private contractors receive payment for each house demolished, bringing forces closer to aid distribution points and creating additional shooting incidents.
While the Military Advocate General has ordered investigations into suspected war crimes at aid sites, human rights organizations including Amnesty International have criticized Israel's military justice system for lacking independence and impartiality. Investigations typically focus on individual soldiers rather than examining broader military policies or command decisions, with limited transparency and many cases closed without prosecution or disciplinary action.
Israeli soldiers nicknamed their activity around Gaza aid distribution sites [death traps] "Operation Salted Fish" after the Israeli version of the children's game "Red light, green light." Like in the children's game where players must stop moving when "red light" is called, Palestinians approaching food distribution sites face live fire when they're not supposed to be there, and can only approach safely when the "green light" is given (when the distribution center opens). The soldiers are essentially treating starving civilians seeking food like players in a deadly version of a children's game - shoot to stop them from moving forward, then allow them to approach only during the designated hour when distribution occurs.
IDF officers and soldiers told Haaretz they were ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present.
I mean, the sane among us already knew they were doing that, but I'm glad there's more organised investigation happening as well (and by an Israeli publication at that) ๐
It's like a mini Jallianwala Bagh every day but the leaders of most white countries evidently think that's perfectly okay ๐
@badrihippo Unfortunately, itโs also not Israelโs first massacre; theyโre not even trying to hide their glee as they watch the slaughter. I remember how much pushback there was about Deir Yassin and Tantura, even recently. You werenโt even allowed to question the purity of arms of pre-state militias, and then Kefar Qassemโฆ and on and on. No one wanted to hear this then, and even less now. As someone posted today, why isnโt the #NYT, BBC, etc. publishing what appears on Haaretz regularly? Thereโs so much documented by Israeli researchers and investigators that itโs overwhelmingly clear.
Is Linux accidentally giving itself an unfair reputation for being difficult?
Helped a non-techy person on the phone get their wifi working on a Linux laptop, we solved it by them pressing the physical flight mode button and then toggling the wireless option in the GUI. Pretty easy, as easy as Mac or Windows.
BUT... when I looked this problem up on a search engine, the first page of results involved the command line and scary paragraphs of CLI text about hardware and drivers.
If this non-techy person had looked this up, they would have seen scary CLI options as top results, and been unfairly intimidated away from Linux.
Really good point by several people about diversity of distros, so I've tried searching for this particular problem on the user's particular distro (Linux Mint).
Top results in DDG for "linux mint wifi not working":
@FediThing ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ Main problem here is with people not having the same physical buttons or even GUI as Lunux has a ton of distros and inconsistent hardware support (extended function keys included).
Also these scary CLI spells have a reason for existing as well ๐
I think the lesson here is the need to seriously up the manual/discoverability game and make *relevant* answers readily available without relying on web search at all.
Because web search is in all likelihood not going to take into account the specifics of the system the user is running, and favor the answer that helps the most Linux systems. And I'd fathom a guess that most Linux systems in existence today are headless and accessible via SSH at best, so the most universal answers are probably going to be for the command line.
So either web search has to stop being to go-to source, or Linux needs a very separate desktop brand that can pull generic Linux answers away from web search results when the user mentions it. Something comparable to Ubuntu or SteamOS. Because apparently even counting on the user to know they're using a GNOME DE is too generous these days.
And both these routes are *monumentally* difficult.
@FediThing ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ CLI-based solutions are generally less dependent on the distribution, desktop and language used. The same solution often works for e.g. an English-speaking Fedora user with GNOME as well as for an Chinese-speaking Kubuntu user. This is usually not the case with GUI solutions. To find a working GUI solution, you often have to know exactly what kind of system you are using.
the problem is that when you say Linux you have a wide array of different distributions. The terminal is where stuff works largely the same, but between systems your GUI might be completely different

This is #Israel / Racism & coercion: on the Depo-Provera Issue and the Ethiopian community (research)
Iโve seen this issue discussed here recently. Hereโs some context about an historical and ongoing overreach of the state and medical authorities in controlling the fertility of Ethiopian immigrant women, in this case the forced (or โstrongly encouragedโ) use of the Depo-Provera contraceptive injection, extracted for a recent research paper.
The issue dates back to the 1990s and continues to the present day. Ethiopian immigrants, who often faced discrimination and were perceived as having higher birth rates, were disproportionately targeted by state-sponsored programs aimed at limiting their family size.
The Depo-Provera injection, a long-acting reversible contraceptive, was frequently administered to Ethiopian women, often without full informed consent or consideration of their individual needs and desires. This practice was sometimes carried out in the context of family planning programs in absorption centers for new immigrants.
The Israeli government and medical authorities played a role in perpetuating this issue. While some officials initially denied or downplayed the extent of the problem, investigations and reports revealed a pattern of coercive practices.
The issue is deeply rooted in racism and discrimination against Ethiopian immigrants, who were often viewed as a "problem", requiring state intervention to control their population growth. This reflects broader societal biases and stereotypes which is not limited to the Ethiopian community, if we limit the discussion to Jewish immigrants.
The researcher, Chedva Eyal, states that despite some changes in policy, concerns remain about the potential for continued overreach and a lack of respect for the reproductive rights of Ethiopian women.
Testimonial from the paper:
[โฆ] For example, the testimony of Shula, who arrived at a Kupat Holim (healthcare clinic) branch in central Israel after giving birth to her son. The nurse insisted she take Depo-Provera, even though Shula did not request contraception and even emphasized that she did not have a partner. Shula, stunned by the intensity of the pressure, decided to go to another clinic to avoid taking contraception she had not asked for at all. The visitor might also have heard the testimony of an Ethiopian woman who refused to take Depo-Provera and was insulted with "retard, foolish," and because of her three pregnancies, she was offered an abortion. The racist and humiliating treatment, along with cases of a lack of medical care infrastructure, indicate a difficult and complex reality that is not reflected in the visitor's inquiry.
The article presents a retrospective account of the Depo-Provera (contraceptive injection) provision scandal to women from the #Ethiopian community in Israel, which was administered broadly with the aim of reducing fertility. The article follows the social and institutional processes since the scandal was revealed in 2008 and examines the State Comptroller's inquiry in 2015. This is a multi-site #ethnographic study that combines interviews, data processing, analysis of the State Comptroller's inquiry and Knesset debate protocols, and spans the years 2023โ2008. During the research, I was exposed to many cases of Depo-Provera being administered without consent, and I witnessed the public discourse and processes that occurred in the wake of the scandal's exposure.
