A question for the Fediverse: I’m learning some basic Italian ahead of my next Interrail trip. Now Duolingo charges extra for explanations and then makes shit up with AI. @Uilebheist has been very helpful, but it’s unfair to bombard them with questions. So, I need a book containing the explanations. If it were German, the book I am looking for would almost certainly be published by Langenscheidt.
Anyone who is learning Italian, or teaches it - any suggestions?
congrats...
... yet another sign of age.
grandkids next (much more fun than your own children)
ah, back when Pixar was good...
Seriously though, congratulations to you and the soon-to-be newlyweds, may they have a long and happy life together

Andrzej Duda opuszcza Pałac Prezydencki.
Poniżej mój, subiektywny, ranking dotychczasowych prezydentów, od najgorszego do najlepszego:
6. Wojciech Jaruzelski - parodia urzędu prezydenta, naplucie w twarz ofiarom PRLu, człowiek któremu nie zdołano wytoczyć uczciwego procesu. Na szczęście był dosyć krótko.
5. Bronisław Komorowski - jego prezydenturę można by określić jako "stary niedźwiedź mocno śpi" a jak już się budził, to zachowywał się jak niedźwiedź w składzie porcelany. Błędy ortograficzne, orły z czekolady, niejasności przy wyprowadzce i taka ospałość.
4. Lech Wałęsa - prezydent który się wybił na osiągnięciach w opozycji PRL, człowiek który w pięć lat swoją pychą, butą i arogancją zniweczył swoją legendę. I który zbytnio uwierzył że jest drugim Piłsudskim.
3. Andrzej Duda - prezydent który przejdzie do historii jako Długopis Prezesa albo Prezydent w Poczekalni. Pomimo iż był w stanie postawić się kilkukrotnie swojej macierzystej partii, to jednak był jej oddanym... długopisem. W zasadzie człowiek-mem, poza dwoma drobnymi językowymi kiksami i upokarzającym zdjęciem przy biurku Trumpa to jednak dość udanie reprezentował kraj za granicą. Nie zaliczył szogunów, nie był pijany, nie świrował.
2. Lech Kaczyński - gdyby nie zginął w Smoleńsku, to zapewne nasza polityka by inaczej wyglądała. W przeciwieństwie do narwanego Jarka, sprawiał wrażenie człowieka bardziej stonowanego, niewątpliwie człowiek inteligentny, zapamiętany też z "spieprzaj dziadu" ale poza tym elegancko. No i szacun za solidarność wobec Gruzji, poniekąd też przewidział Putina w Ukrainie.
1. Aleksander Kwaśniewski - poza dwoma pijackimi wybrykami, człowiek który idealnie wykonał swoją rolę. Potrafił postawić się ponad swój obóz polityczny i poglądy, dążył do zgody w narodzie i bardzo udanie reprezentował nasz kraj. Potrafił rozmawiać z każdym i nawet wzbudzał szacunek u oponentów politycznych. Totalne zaprzeczenie "prezydenta-elekta".

La transition entre le régime de propriété capitaliste et le régime de propriété féodal est sujette à débat; chez Marx il y a une vision dans le Manifeste, et une autre dans le Capital (plus récente, et plus travaillée).
Une intéressante analyse ici :
books.openedition.org/ensediti…
Le plus important dans le capitalisme, c'est le travail transformé en marchandise, qui permet d'augmenter sans cesse la captation de la valeur (du surprofit) en déplaçant la main d'œuvre, alors qu'en régime féodal précisément les rôles dans la production sont fixés par d'autres relations; et également la marchandisation de la terre, également impossible en régime féodal où il n'y a pas de marché pour les terres agricoles, afin de produire un prolétariat (les paysans sans terre, privés de ressources par les "enclosures").
Notons que la naissance d'un marché du travail requiert au préalable l'égalité des droits bourgeoise (l'égalité théorique devant le contrat et la loi).
Si on retombe dans un système dans lequel la propriété de moyens de production devient effectivement impossible pour le grand nombre et concentrée dans très peu de mains, et la mobilité des personnes en général et du travail en particulier s'effondre, alors on peut arguer qu'on sort du capitalisme pour revenir à un régime plus proche du modèle féodal antérieur.
Bien sûr tout ça est relatif, le capitalisme et le féodalisme, comme bien d'autres choses (l'effondrement par exemple) sont inégalement distribués. Les migrants qui tentent de traverser la Manche ou la Méditerranée sont bien pleinement plongés dans les eaux glacées du calcul égoïste capitaliste; et les "ruraux" de la France périphérique sont déjà revenus dans un régime plus féodal, avec des relations d'allégeance, etc.
Il n’est pas ici question de faire une histoire exhaustive du débat sur la transition, la question de l’émergence de notre système économique ayant été un des thèmes les plus traités des sciences sociales.books.openedition.org

Ca monte ca monte, macron est content, et les français aveugles.
La Fédération de #Russie déclare ne plus se considérer liée par le moratoire sur le déploiement de missiles terrestres à moyenne et courte portée.
En 1987, soviétiques et américains signent le Traité #INF (Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty ou Traité sur les forces nucléaires à portée intermédiaire) qui interdit le déploiement des missiles balistiques de croisière terrestres ayant une portée entre 500 et 5 500 km.
En 2019, #Trump se retire unilatéralement du traité et accuse la Russie de l’avoir violé avec le missile 9M729, un missile du système Iskander. Selon Trump, la portée de ce missile est supérieure à 500 km, ce que la Fédération de Russie nie.
En 2019, après retrait américain, la Russie proclame un moratoire. Elle s'engage à ne pas déployer de missiles à moyenne ou courte portée tant que les #États-Unis ou leurs alliés ne le font pas en premier.
Entretemps, les #USA ont entamé le déploiement de lanceurs de #missiles à portée intermédiaire (Mk-41 en #Pologne et #Roumanie) et surtout en #Grande-Bretagne, à la base aérienne de RAF Lakenheath, ils ont réinstallé des ogives nucléaires tactiques de type B61-12. Cette base est équipée pour accueillir des F-35A, capables d’emporter ces bombes.
Aussi, face à ces développements, la Russie a mis fin au moratoire et, désormais, rien ne l'empêche de placer des missiles en #Biélorussie, à #Kaliningrad, en #Crimée, voire en Extrême-Orient, comme les #US.
