@Oven_Operators_LU_88 I wish you were correct, but historic precedence says at best one ruling elite will be replaced with another, usually an inbred sibling.
🚨 BREAKING: As a result of Israel’s ongoing genocide and total blockade on Gaza, 1.5-year-old Sanaa Al-Lahham has died from severe malnutrition after months without food, baby formula, or medical care.
Με μια σεμνή και λιτή απόφαση, το πρωτοδικείο Αθηνών, απέρριψε χθες την αίτηση ασφαλιστικών μέτρων της Παρασκευής Τυχεροπουλου κατά του ΟΠΕΚΕΠΕ, με την οποία η ενάγουσα ζητούσε να επιστρέψει στη θέση της ως Προϊσταμένη της Διεύθυνσης Εσωτερικού Ελέγχου, απο την οποία απομακρυνθηκε κακήν-κακώς όταν αποκάλυψε τον οχετό των παράνομων επιδοτήσεων.

"Talk about The Wire, Sopranos, Game of Thrones all you want, but the greatest US television program ever made is Sesame Street. It's not even close. 50+ years of treating kids across class, ethnicity, religion not as mini-consumers...but as citizens with a stake in this world."

#OtD 19 Jul 1998 Italian-French anarchist paediatrician Giliana Berneri died in Paris. Born in Florence, Italy, in 1919, Berneri was active in several anarchist groups and actions in the 1930s and 40s, though she left the movement in the 1950s stories.workingclasshistory.co…
I was wondering, is there any reason why I should buy the Steam Deck abroad in France instead of in my home of Canada?
So I (Canadian) am surprising my friend (from France) with a Steam Deck in October when I go visit them. It will just be the cheaper LCD version, since they won’t care about (or notice) the difference in quality.
Aside from buying adapters for the plug, I literally can’t think of a reason why I should buy it directly in Europe as opposed to getting it in Canada. It would be a lot easier since I can have it delivered to my address, don’t need a specific day and time for it to be delivered, don’t have to deal with any issues of ordering things in a foreign country (sometimes you need to have a local address to order and have things delivered, etc)
That said, I wanted to still check and see if there’s something I’m forgetting or just outright unaware of. I know there’s specific power requirements for the Steam Deck, but mine worked just fine with an adapter when I was last there in January.
Value-based allowances, which apply to goods you’re carrying (purchases or gifts), mean that you don’t have to fill in a customs declaration or pay tax or duty. You don’t have to declare goods (including gifts) so long as their total value or their quantity doesn’t exceed the allowance limits.
The overall market value of goods cannot exceed the following amounts: Arriving by plane or ferry: €430
Any item whose value exceeds the limit must be declared and you will need to pay the amount of value added tax (VAT) and customs duties that would usually apply. These duties and taxes apply to the full purchase price on the receipt or an agreed-upon estimated value.
If you are bringing multiple items into the country, each item will count toward your overall limit; once you reach the limit, any surplus goods will be taxed.
Also note that the Steam Deck contains a Li-Ion battery and thus isn't allowed in the cargo hold. So you'd have to take this into your carry-on onto the plane.
EDIT: Oh, and since it has a Li-Ion battery, you'll have to take it out of its packaging and have it scanned separately during the security check. At least that's how it usually is when travelling in the EU.
Technically, yes. And you would be able to ask for those taxes back upon returning to your home country (with the same phone). But since this would create huge queues at the airports, nobody actually enforces that.
However, travelling with e.g. 2 Steam Decks or with one in its original packaging raises suspicion and you could get stopped when going through the green portal at the airport.
This was the dinner shared by two journalists stationed in Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis. A single tomato, some olive oil, salt, and one piece of bread split between two people. Imagine what people with no steady income are eating in Gaza.

Intel, AMD and ARM also have such standards, but you have to pay high license fees to make your own CPU. You don't pay with RISC-V, since it's openly developed and agreed upon.
In a few years you'll be able to buy laptops, tablets etc. with RISC-V inside and decent performance (currently comparable to Raspberry Pi). It's already common in industrial applications, like cars, machinery, IoT etc., and increasingly in server/datacenter space, AI applications and so on.
Et le Risc-V est entièrement Open Source contrairement aux Intel, AMD et ARM qui peuvent caché des choses nous mettant a risque de piratage ou espionage...
🚨A chilling scene from the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza: with food supplies completely cut off, desperate civilians are forced to scrape up flour mixed with sand just to keep their families alive.
True! Ironically, less availability for housing means more homeless people, which means more people around them taking advantage of the homeless people and passerbys, which means more crime — the bad kind anyway.
Quand une pétition atteint 500 000 signatures sur le site de l'Assemblée, cela fait un débat dans l'hémicycle, ou un classement sans suite. Et c'est tout. N'en attendait pas plus.
Pour cette loi, certes mais si le nombre continue à augmenter sans faiblir, ça pourrait ébranler un certain nombre de députés soucieux de conserver leur siège aux prochaines élections... Parce que c'est quand même une première qui montre que le sujet est sensible... @lord
Pour être honnête, je ne suis pas vraiment optimiste. Mais si je me conforme exactement à mes convictions, j'arrête tout parce que mon analyse de la situation (globalement, pas que sur cette pétition) n'aboutit qu'à un enchaînement de désastres. Et ce qui est sûr, c'est que cette attitude est tout à fait du style autoréalisatrice. Si personne ne fait rien, la situation ne s'améliorera pas. Alors bon... Haut les coeurs. On n'est jamais à l'abri d'une bonne surprise 😁. @lord
@Badmax @lord "si personne ne fait rien" elle est bien bonne. Je dis que la pétition ne fera rien d'autre qu'un débat au mieux, je ne dis pas de ne rien faire.
Children are starving in Gaza.
Women are starving in Gaza.
Men are starving in Gaza.
Gaza is under a brutal blockade and a starvation policy imposed by Israel.
Israel is starving Gaza.

the #cops at the #LAPD training center were handling unexploded ordinances when the explosion occurred and #killed 3 of them. it was the #SEB. they’re reporting on this like this is suspicious criminal act or a potential #terrorist attack or brave line of duty fatalities when in all likelihood it was an act of gross #incompetence. #lol.
fixed a hole in the drywall for my mom years ago she bought a bed and headboard and had it delivered the idiots who put on the headboard put the bolts backwards so they'd impale the wall also they used some unholy combination of 7/16 bolts and 10mm bolts
I spent a whole day in a room full of privacy engineers talking about how they were trying to move their companies towards better practices and then I glanced at my phone, read this, and just let the wave of rage and despair wash over me: eff.org/deeplinks/2025/07/amaz…
Ring founder Jamie Siminoff is back at the helm of the surveillance doorbell company, and with him is the surveillance-first-privacy-last approach that made Ring one of the most maligned tech devices.

The Internet is accelerated mass media and indoctrination.
These gaslighting ops are control exercises. It's not weird, it's an accelerated form of what was happening before, but now instead of the confines of the big cultural movers (history, ppl, events, religion, entertainment), they can tweak all kinds of knobs.
Most if not all of this footage is pretty obviously not from Texas... not sure why the author is trying to fake it with European footage that doesn't even look like anywhere in the USA. Not to say there aren't some terrifying timelapse sequences actually from Texas... ca.news.yahoo.com/why-record-h…
@mertzigzag ah yeah not sure why it got labelled as Texas in the video, it's honestly even more powerful showing that it is happening all over the world
