We, the undersigned, call on the UK Home Secretary to urgently proscribe the “Israel Defence Forces (IDF)” as a terrorist organisation, under the Terrorism Act 2000. We believe their actions meet this definition and that they pose a threat to the safety and security of innocent civillians.

Israel limits entry of baby formula in Gaza as infants die of hunger
lemonde.fr/en/international/ar…
While waiting to enter Gaza on a medical aid mission, an American doctor watched Israeli security forces confiscate the cans of powdered baby formula packed in his luggage. The vital product is desperately lacking in the Palestinian enclave, where about 50 children have died of hunger since March.

Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian Territories, has called on countries to impose a full arms embargo as well as cut off trade and financial ties with Israel, which she alleged is waging a genocidal campaign in Gaza.
“Israel is responsible for one of the cruellest genocides in modern history,” Albanese said in a speech to the UN Human Rights Council.

Un biais cognitif, c’est comme un piège dans notre tête.
C’est quand notre cerveau fait une erreur sans qu’on s’en rende compte. Il croit qu’il pense bien, mais en fait, il se trompe un peu. C’est comme porter des lunettes qui changent un peu la réalité : on voit les choses d’une façon spéciale, mais pas toujours juste
🧃 1. Biais de confirmation
C’est quand tu penses qu’une chose est vraie, et tu cherches seulement ce qui te donne raison.
📌 Exemple :
Tu dis : “Le jus de pomme, c’est le meilleur !”
Alors tu écoutes seulement les copains qui disent “Oui, moi aussi j’adore !”
Mais tu ignores ceux qui préfèrent le jus d’orange.
⸻
🧒 2. Effet de groupe (ou biais de conformité)
C’est quand tu fais comme tout le monde, même si ce n’est pas ce que tu veux vraiment.
📌 Exemple :
Tu veux dessiner un chien, mais tous les autres dessinent des chats.
Alors tu dessines un chat aussi, juste pour être comme eux.
⸻
🍭 3. Biais d’ancrage
C’est quand la première chose qu’on te dit influence ce que tu crois, même si ce n’est pas logique.
📌 Exemple :
On te dit : “Ce bonbon coûte 10 dinars !”
Puis on te dit : “Mais je te le fais à 5 dinars, c’est une super affaire !”
Tu crois que c’est pas cher… alors qu’un bonbon de 5 dinars, c’est déjà beaucoup !
⸻
🧠 En résumé :
Les biais cognitifs, ce sont des façons bizarres ou trompeuses de penser.
Ils arrivent à tout le monde, même aux grands !
Mais quand on les connaît, on peut mieux réfléchir.

For Rida Abu Hadayed, summer adds a new layer of misery to a daily struggle to survive in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip.
With temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit), daybreak begins with the cries of Hadayed’s seven children sweltering inside the displaced family’s cramped nylon tent. Outside, the humidity is unbearable.
A family of six was completely wiped out in an Israeli strike that targeted a tent in the so-called “safe zone” of al-Mawasi in southern Gaza. last night. Seven others were also killed in the same attack.
Local sources reported that the Israeli strike targeted a makeshift tent in a displacement camp, where clusters of tents sheltering already displaced families also caught fire.
In a speech to the UN Human Rights Council, UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories Francesca Albanese said: “The situation in the occupied Palestinian territory is apocalyptic.”
“Israel is responsible for one of the cruellest genocides in modern history,” she added, in a speech that was met with a burst of applause from the Geneva council.

Amnesty International issued a report Thursday claiming a controversial Israeli- and U.S.-backed system to distribute aid in Gaza uses starvation tactics against Palestinians to continue to commit genocide in the Gaza Strip.
The U.K.-based human rights group condemned Israel and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which the U.S. and Israel have backed to take over aid distribution in Gaza from a network led by the United Nations.
At least 15 Palestinians were killed earlier on Thursday in an Israeli attack targeting a school sheltering displaced families in Gaza City. The victims include children who were burned to death.
Medical sources reported that 11 people were killed in the Israeli attack on the Mustafa Hafez School in the Al-Rimal neighborhood in western Gaza City.
Local sources reported the bombing caused a fire at the school, burning people alive.

Frustrated by Day 2’s failures, Lee planned a massive assault on the Union center, led by Longstreet, with Pickett’s fresh division, while Ewell renewed attacks on Culp’s Hill and Stuart’s cavalry probed the Union lines to the rear. Both commanders braced for a decisive confrontation under the sweltering July heat.
At 4:00 AM, Union XII Corps, under Brig. Gen. George S. Greene, launched a counterattack to reclaim Culp’s Hill trenches lost to Johnson’s Confederates on July 2nd.
After hours of mounted and dismounted fighting, and about 500 casualties, Stuart’s advance was halted. Securing Meade’s rear and foiling the Confederate flanking maneuver.
Late on July 3, Union cavalry under Brig. Gen. Elon Farnsworth, part of Kilpatrick’s division, launched a doomed charge against Longstreet’s right flank south of Big Round Top. Ordered to disrupt Confederate lines, Farnsworth’s 300 troopers faced Law’s infantry and artillery across rocky terrain.
The artillery duel, one of the war’s largest, set the stage for Lee’s climactic assault, as both sides braced for the decisive moment, Pickett’s Charge.
At 3:00 PM, 12,500 Confederates—Pickett’s, Pettigrew’s, and Trimble’s divisions—emerged from Seminary Ridge for Pickett’s Charge. Advancing a mile across open fields, they faced a storm of Union artillery from Cemetery Ridge, led by Lt. Alonzo Cushing’s battery.
Lee’s army, with 28,000 losses, would retreat the next day, July 4th. Meade, with 23,000 casualties, did not pursue, sparking debate. Critics, including Lincoln, argued he missed a chance to crush Lee. Defenders cite Meade’s exhausted troops, low supplies, and Lee’s still-formidable army, arguing caution preserved the victory.
Gettysburg shifted the war’s tide, but Meade’s restraint, praised by some and scorned by others, left the Confederacy’s in tact dragging the war on for two more years.

Ich musste mir zuletzt einen neuen Fahrradreparaturladen suchen. Eine Sache die mir dabei aufgefallen ist:
Fast jeder Händler lehnt die Reparatur von Discounter-Bikes rundheraus ab.
Das betrifft mich nicht persönlich, aber ich denke das wird einige Käufer solcher Räder erhebliche Probleme bereiten. Da kann der erste Defekt zu einem Todesurteil für das Rad werden.
Anni, meine vorherige Händlerin erklärte mir das mal, warum sie das nicht machte:

in reply to sabreW4K3 • • •Why do I feel like narrowing down the options would not be that bad? The whole world of Linux is, IMO, in dire need of consolidation behind tried and tested, universally accepted technologies instead of endless number of choices for specific tastes. That is at least the case if Linux aims for desktops (like it now very much should and could with all the Win 11 mess).
There really can’t be half a dozen or more alternatives for any particular task. Two desktop environments for example has to be enough for 99% of users, same with package management systems etc. Otherwise the newbie user will only get scared and confused, or not be able to easily find support relevant to their ”version” of Linux.

in reply to hietsu • • •Man, we really need to make "The ~~Church~~ Cathedral and the Bazaar" required reading.
You clearly have missed the entire point of Linux, which is the freedom to do with your machine as you like. The endless number of choices for specific tastes is the result of people having the choice to write their own thing.
When consolidation happens, when people say "make my choice for me, I can't make decisions" we end up with super constrained setups like MacOS, Windows 11 and stupid Gnome the way it is now; no choice, do it our way or not at all.
And the answer is still freedom. It's obvious in the plugins and addons for gnome that get it to do basic customizing you find in, say xfce as a toggle in the settings. You find it in the myriad of softwares written for windows and mac that let the user do what they want to do.
And I will likely not be the first to point out to you Linux doesn't "aim for desktops", linux isn't an organization the way ms and apple are. And it likely never will be.
Newbies will be scared and confused no matter what's in front of them.

in reply to LeFantome • • •lambalicious
in reply to hietsu • • •Perhaps because you miss Microsoft or Apple? In a rather misdirected way?
Half the point is there are multiple ways to do things - and mind, Windows is like that too (you can get to some settings though the new Control Panel, the old Control Panel, the Regedit, the Powershell...). Just about the only thing in Windows you are forced only one vision of is the desktop itself, but as soon as you double-click an icon, all bets are off.
Also if what you want is getting behind "tried and tested, universally accepted technologies"... that's what sysvinit, ALSA, X11 and automake / build-essentials; no need for systemd, Pulseaudio, Wayland and Snaps. Pulseaudio was basically a stillborn deformed baby whereas I've never seen ALSA fail since 2002 (to the point even today I have to "fix" Flatpak not having audio on Pipewire unless Pulseaudio sits behind it by just seating both of them behind ALSA). I don't even have to begin on Wayland, it started as just vaporware; Systemd is largely an attempt to microsoft-ize Linux system management; and Snaps make me want to snap.
As for newbies... others have addressed the point but honestly, if someone gets scared and whiny at the "choose your starter" screen of the game, they're not gonna last any in a Pokémon game nor would I want them around whining about things they couldn't even be bothered to be here for.
