@davidallengreen points out that when we think about how international law is faring in the current global political situation, there's a big difference between compliance & enforcement.... while (as Harold Koh famously pointed out) most countries follow international law most of the time, when a state chooses not to (or even to acknowledge its salience) we find ourselves in a world where sovereign self-restraint has (dangerously) evaporated!

So my mom discovered that the local SPCA has a "dog library"--where you can "check out" a dog and take them for a walk or a hike and then bring them back. She's been doing this on hikes with a friend of hers. She really is making the most of her retirement.
British MP Rupert Lowe has suggested the Palestine Action activists who recently infiltrated a military base to spray-paint planes should have expected to be fired at.
Yarmouth gits wot Yarmouth voted for. When not advocating summary military execution for non-violent protest, he patrols the streets of Yarmouth looking for turkish barbours to harrass. He enthusiastically greeted the MV Ruby carrying contaminated Russian ammonium nitrate 200 tonnes of which was dumped in the North Sea just outslde our 12 mile limit. He's the County sewage outlet straight onto Yarmouth beach. #greatyarmouth #RupertLoweMP
ESA Living Planet Symposium concludes today, having brought together more than 6500 people across the Earth observation community. The takeaways include new connections, collaborations, not to mention the revelation of pioneering mission images. As a picture is worth a thousand words, here’s a selection that captures just a few of the many highlights.

Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York not only upended the political establishment, but it also repudiated the Islamophobia of U.S. politics since 9/11.

Trump officials plan to resettle 1,000 Afrikaners while blocking other refugees - The Washington Post archive.ph/i3nAi
"Refugees that a federal judge had ordered the Trump administration to admit are being barred from entry under the president’s travel ban even as Afrikaners are allowed in."
Public schools in Maryland must allow parents with religious objections to withdraw their children from classes in which storybooks with L.G.B.T.Q. themes are discussed, the Supreme Court ruled on Friday.
The vote was 6 to 3, with the court’s liberal members in dissent.
The case extended a winning streak for claims of religious freedom at the court, gains that have often come at the expense of other values, notably gay rights.
The case concerned a new curriculum adopted in 2022 for prekindergarten through the fifth grade by the Montgomery County Public Schools, Maryland’s largest school system.
The storybooks included “Pride Puppy,” an alphabet primer about a family whose puppy gets lost at a Pride parade; “Love, Violet,” about a girl who develops a crush on her female classmate; “Born Ready,” about a transgender boy; and “Uncle Bobby’s Wedding,” about a same-sex union.
At first, the school system gave parents notice when the storybooks were to be discussed, along with the opportunity to have their children excused. But school administrators soon eliminated the advance notice and opt-out policy, saying it was hard to administer, led to absenteeism and risked “exposing students who believe the storybooks represent them and their families to social stigma and isolation.”
Israelis getting creative: "Reports have said that Oxycodone – the controversial drug behind the opioid epidemic in the US – is not only being smuggled in flour bags, but also crushed into powder and mixed into the flour itself" Before Oct 7th, I probably would have dismissed this article as BS. Not now. I now see this as entirely possible.
Well that is what they want. And this is why we should educate people who "blame the jews" to tell them they are wrong. I always explain things in "zionists" terms. Never jews. Always explaining that actually Jewish people are against zionism normally. Etc... Ziomonsters need antisemitism and we should never give them that.

Embassy As evening fell, the day's opression lifted Far peaks came into focus; it had rained. Across wide fields and cultured flowers drifted The conversation of the highly trained.
Two gardeners watched, and priced their shoes; A chauffer waited, reading in the drive For them to finish their exchange of views; It seemed a picture of the private life.
Far off, no matter what good they intended, The armies waited for a fatal error With all the instruments for causing pain.
And on the issue of their charm depended A land laid waste, with all its young men slain, Its women weeping, and its towns in terror. W. H. Auden (1907—1973)

Greens candidate Hannah Thomas was injured by police while peacefully protesting on public land outside a company that provides weapon parts to Israel.

The police and Minns government choose to protect weapons companies over people. SHAME
I can’t remember now what novel it is, but there’s a novel written during the 20th century but set after it where everyone calls the 20th century the “Hell Century.” Seems to fit the data.
In 1989, William Eckhardt studied casualties of conflicts from 1700 to 1987 and found that "the civilian percentage share of war-related deaths remained at about 50% from century to century." He noted the civilian casualty ratio remained consisted despite the fact that number of deaths from wars increased four times faster than the increase in world population, when comparing the 18th century to the 20th century.

Not exactly morons, but as with calculators, blindly and constantly relying on them reduces personal capabilities. Which will lead to "interesting" situations when such software becomes more common.
It’s unrealistic to expect the US to maintain 500% tariffs on China and India for their purchase of Russian oil, which would also ruin its trade talks with them and derail the Ukrainian peace process.

@MadhatterMatador no, it was just a blood test. I haven't talked to my doctor about it. I requested it because people in super chats kept bugging me to get my levels checked
that SHBG number is astronomically high and you gotta bring it down if you want your body to bind all that T to your tissues. Don’t know why your numbers are like that but there’s something more going on there.
I had similar numbers to yours a few years ago. Total T was high, SHGB was high but my FREE T was on the lower side and according to my doctor the FREE T number is more important than your Total T because it’s the form of T that your body actually USES, as I understood it. SHGB is a protein that keeps T bound in the blood so the higher presence of that in your body, the less effective your body can utilize T. It’s an inverse relationship. You just gotta find what’s striking this
imbalance. For me it was high cortisol but the cause might be different you. Best to figure this out with a doctor, I suppose! But I feel like I’m my mid 20s now…
oh JFC I just realized i didn’t even answer your answer in that giant diatribe. Besides medical intervention there’s a supplement called “Boron” you can buy which supposedly lowers the SHBG and frees up that testosterone. There’s other stuff too but that’s the main thing people recommend for this issue. Maybe experiment with that until you find a new doctor…
too much testosterone AKA too alpha? LOL you mogged the dr and he jelly. But fr for a man in his 40s that's impressive, you must have been some kind of supersoldier looking dude in your 20s.
What "ideology"? And I would never touch any project or distribution that tried to control what packages or functionality existed based off "ideological" disagreements.
It's all kinda dumb. I use both X11 and Wayland. Both work fine. I mostly use Wayland but I otherwise don't really care. Still don't want people telling me what I can or cannot do. I thought Alpine Linux was mostly for servers and would be headless anyway? So, what's the point of the bickering? @istvan
>I thought Alpine Linux was mostly for servers and would be headless anyway? I thought it was mostly for containers, and, since containers are retarded, retarded. I ran it on my laptop for a little while, put xfce on it, it was fine, but you might as well just >gentoo
alpine is ok as a desktop os, they package tons of stuff. i used it as my main os for a while. but it is mostly just for containers, everything is compiled size optimized
wrong think in all it's forms must be prohibited. Redhat has deemed x dead, and the xlibre attempt to resurrect it is not letting dei cripple it which is "problematic"
@adiz Not wanting DEI is probably an ideology for them. They likely associate a distaste for progressivism, marxism, socialism, communism, etc., with conservatism (which in their view is fascism of course). So for them not liking DEI=fascist. That's the ideology they proclaim to oppose.
Jeff Bozo, is wealthy because he owns a good portion of Amazon. If he were to "pay his fair share" he would have to give up his ownership and put people out of work, shut down operations, and discontinue many services.
Look at the 1.1% you claim is his tax rate, which is pure bullshit by the way, and figure out how much money that is. Do you pay that on your total wealth?
"If people arrive early and approach the checkpoints, they get shot. If they arrive on time but there is an overflow and they jump over the mounds and the wires, they get shot. If they arrive late, they shouldn't be there because it is an 'evacuated zone' – they get shot."
A court ruling in Australia, an election result in New York and a military setback for Israel, all coming on Tuesday this week, signaled a serious turn of events for Zionism and its supporters, writes Joe Lauria.
Gens de Mastodon, j'ai besoin de vous. Ou plutôt, ma fille a besoin de vous. Dans le cadre de son master en sociologie, son groupe de travail propose une enquête sur “les effets des différents modèles éducatifs sur les individus”. Ce n'est pas très long, et elles ont besoin de 500 réponses (270 atteintes pour l'heure). Si en plus vous vous genrez plutôt au masculin et êtes à la retraite, vous êtes le plein cœur de cible : c'est la population qui leur manque le plus. lsurvey-pedago.univ-st-etienne…
Comme soulevé plus haut, il y a des problème de cohérence entre les réponses, mais surtout, des thèmes qui nécessiteraient des content warnings. On ne balance pas comme ça, sans prévenir, des questions sur les violences sexuelles subies dans l'enfance, c'est mettre les personnes qui viennent aimablement répondre en danger psychologique.
Just saw a video of a #white #American girl "Explaining to her white American boyfriend how the man-or-bear thing works" where she asks him if he would rather fight a bear, or shower in a prison shower, and he goes grey and goes "oh no I get a horrible feeling in my tummy thinking of being trapped in a prison shower with those thugs!" And she says that's good that he's feeling now how women feel all the time and all I can think is... Mate that is just your #racism, your #idea that the "thugs"...
Microsoft is moving antivirus programs from running at kernel level
"Weston also hinted that these changes could also affect kernel-level anti-cheat mechanisms used in games, Easy Anti-Cheat for example. It could be a thing of the past, which is welcome news"
i believe it when i see it. its very likely going to end up with a kernel level API (like eBPF) with which the AV/ACs can interact with to still get kernel level access without being able to fuck up too badly by being incompetent
Daniel Neuenschwander, ESA head of Space and Robotic Exploration, explains that Ignis mission will include an ambitious technological and scientific programme with several experiments led by ESA and proposed by the Polish space industry.
On 26 June 2025, ESA project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski from Poland and his crewmates arrived to the International Space Station on the Axiom-4 mission (Ax-4).
The Polish project astronaut is the second of a new generation of European astronauts to fly on a commercial human spaceflight opportunity with Axiom Space.
