L’ex-Premier ministre et candidat à la présidentielle se défend de « toute irrégularité. » État des lieux et témoignages exclusifs de la plaignante.

Reminder not to cross the 🍌 picket line:

"Updated 9:37 PM EDT, May 22, 2025

"PANAMA CITY (AP) — Banana giant Chiquita Brands has fired its workers in Panama who have been out on strike for more than three weeks as part of nationwide protests against reforms to the social security system, the company said Thursday."

@kathimmel fair enough, mostly just throwing out reactionary rhetoric. the thing is, unless Panama has some crazy worker protections that I am unaware of, they're just gonna bring in strike breakers.
if you don't want to negotiate with your employees/borderline slave labor, then you shouldn't have the opportunity to run a business.
so instead of burning it down, maybe they can tear those U.S. suits to pieces and use their bodies for organic fertilizer on their new worker-owned and operated banana-co-op.

A dying industry dies a bit more - by Ed Conway


#energy #industry #economics

Without cheap energy, re-industrialisation is an empty slogan.

In the meantime, energy prices into the UK went from being among the lowest in Europe to among the highest in the developed world. The hydrogen economy remained what it was back a decade ago - which is to say, a lovely idea but, in practice, way too expensive to compete with old fashioned chemicals and energy.

FYI: Bitmap fonts might break with the latest fontconfig release

A new version of fontconfig release recently with the added option to disable bitmap fonts. If you're using a rolling release distro, this might break bitmap fonts for you. It definitely does on Arch (and likely Arch-based distros) because they opted to disable them by default for some reason (AFAICT upstream gives the choice but does not recommend one way or the other).

This'll cause fontconfig to skip bitmap fonts, your apps won't be able to access them.

To fix it, you need to configure fontconfig to not ignore bitmap fonts. There are a number of ways to do that.

I'd recommend a user-level fontconfig file. Create $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf with below contents and you get your bitmap fonts back. This negates the file in /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps-except-emoji.conf. This is the first time I'm configuring fontconfig so there may be a better way ¯_(ツ)_/¯

This should've definitely been news imo especially because this is not the default behavior of upstream. I shouldn't have to read fontconfig PRs to figure out why my fonts broke, even on Arch.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "urn:fontconfig:fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
  <description>Accept bitmap fonts</description>
  <!-- Accept bitmap fonts -->
  <selectfont>
    <acceptfont>

A reminder that the anti-Iraq-war protests were some of the largest demonstrations in human history and they failed. The "carrying signs and yelling at empty buildings" theory of change comes from a sanitized retelling of past movements.

Today, every group with a twitter is calling for a demonstration in their town, but movements that don't cause power to feel pain and don't have the institutional capacity to negotiate if/when they do are doomed to failure.

The Luddite

@sidereal pretty sure that we at least mostly agree? Obviously the people at the march aren't the problem. My point is that the rallies matter as much as they signal or lead to an actual threat to power. If they can be safely ignored they will be.

Do you understand how just how massive the Supreme Court ruling today about District Court judges not being able to issue nationwide injunctions was?

Me neither, until I heard Stephen Miller masterfully explain the “momentous ruling” to me.

The establishment essentially just lost their main weapon in trying to stop the Trump agenda.

Judicial lawfare just took a huge blow.

Huge W for MAGA.

Against the Logic of the Guillotine: Why the Paris Commune Burned the Guillotine – and We Should Too

crimethinc.com/2019/04/08/agai…

Every word in this article speaks directly to my soul. I have no desire to burn down the world we live in yet every desire to try and help bring about the kind of world I want to live in: a kinder, fairer, more equal and – to steal a phrase from the piece – more joyous one for us all.

#anarchism #SmallTech #SmallWeb

The worst punishment anyone could inflict on those who govern and police us today would be to compel them to live in a society in which everything they've done is regarded as embarrassing-for them to have to sit in assemblies in which no one listens to them, to go on living among us without any special privileges in full awareness of the harm they have done. If we fantasize about anything, let us fantasize about making our movements so strong that we will hardly have to kill anyone to overthrow the state and abolish capitalism. This is more becoming of our dignity as partisans of liberation.
So we repudiate the logic of the guillotine. We don't want to exterminate our enemies. We don't think the way to create harmony is to subtract everyone who does not share our ideology from the world. Our vision is a world in which many worlds fit, as Subcomandante Marcos put it—a world in which the only thing that is impossible is to dominate and oppress.
Anarchism is a proposal for everyone regarding how we might go about improving our lives-workers and unemployed people, people of all ethnicities and genders and nationalities or lack thereof. The anarchist proposal is not in the interests of one currently existing group against another: it is not a way to enrich the poor at the expense of the rich, or to empower one ethnicity, nationality, or religion at others' expense. That entire way of thinking is part of what we are trying to escape. All of the "interests" that supposedly characterize different categories of people are products of the prevailing order and must be transformed along with it, not preserved or pandered to.
From our perspective, even the topmost positions of wealth and power that are available in the existing order are worthless. Nothing that capitalism and the state have to offer are of any value to us. We propose anarchist revolution on the grounds that it could finally fulfill longings that the prevailing social order will never satisfy: the desire to be able to provide for oneself and one's loved ones without doing so at anyone else's expense, the wish to be valued for one's creativity and character rather than for how much profit one can generate, the longing to structure one's life around what is profoundly joyous rather than according to the imperatives of competition.

Against the Logic of the Guillotine

Fetishizing the guillotine is like fetishizing the state: it means celebrating an instrument of murder that will always be used chiefly against us.

cette pseudo-théologie sert avant tout à justifier un modèle de domination économique capitaliste très terre à terre : « Les gens de la tech se vivent comme des élus – ce qu’ils sont d’une certaine manière. Ils dominent grâce à un monopole, alimenté par le vol généralisé de notre activité humaine. » Sincèrement convaincus, leur discours religieux permet de justifier, en creux, un projet de société ouvertement eugéniste : « Ils considèrent qu’il y a une partie de l’humanité qui doit périr, et une autre qui doit survivre… Et que la technologie permettra de faire le tri », assure Mathieu Corteel. L’idéologie post-humaniste recycle selon lui l’éthique protestante décrite par Max Weber, qui a accompagné l’essor du capitalisme américain : l’idée qu’un appel divin légitime le succès économique et que les plus performants (sur le marché comme avec les technologies) sont ceux que Dieu a élus.

Virtual Machines- is there a better way to jump start a VM?
I’ve been using VirtualBox for a year now and I’m getting pretty ticked every time I have to start a new Ubuntu VM. I speed more time going to root shell prompt to add myself to sudoers file, add myself to groups, the addons, shared folder and storage not mounting right away….. etc etc.
I’m sure I might be not using VirtualBox to its full potential to avoid long setup times but I feel like I shouldn’t have to deal with this. It should act is it being installed on a bare metal machine. Is there a more modern approach? Something more streamlined?
FYI I’m learning containers and miniKube so I’m not jumping in the deep end quite yet.
