7 August 1942 | A transport of 1014 Jews deported from Beaune-la-Rolande in occupied France arrived at #Auschwitz: 588 men and boys and 426 women and girls.

After arrival selection made by SS doctors, 214 men and 96 women were registered in the camp. Of these, five men and one woman survived the war.

The remaining 704 people were murdered immediately in the gas chambers. Among them was Chaja Krebs who was born in JarosƂaw.

My first phishing text message that looked convincing, targeting my pension account, "verify your address." Of course I didn't click on the link, oh hell no! I traced the number to spammer fraud web pages. When I get home, I'll see who their hosting provider is, etc.

That link could have wiped out my retirement. With the fraud safety government offices closed, this is going to be one of many attempts to remove our last strings of survival...

'Facial recognition tech mistook me for wanted man'

Why is there a seemingly casual disregard when using terms like the UK? We regularly see stories talking about UK issues on say education or health but dig a little deeper and these stories only relate to England and sometimes to England and Wales. Is the lack of care a symptom of a disregard for Northern Ireland and Scotland? Yet at the same time, suggest that the UK be broken up and the bile we are met with has to be seen to be believed.
Is it time to end the UK?

"So what do you really know about 5,000 years ago? how do you know it?

If the news is fake, then history is REALLY fake."

What a god damn stupid thing to think and say out loud.

Also: The MĂŒnster stands where it does since 500 years. I look at it. I see 500 years of history. Other places have older stuff laying around. Duh.

Ok, ich habe deine eigene AusfĂŒhrung nicht als Darstellung der juristischen Tatsachen oder Expertenmeinung interpretiert, sondern auch nur als private Spekulation.

As der Perspektive bleibe ich dabei, dass es nicht schlĂŒssig ist, dass AnwĂ€lte ⋅offensichtlich⋅ nicht unter BerĂŒcksichtigung der eigenen Arbeitszeit kostenpflichtig abmahnen können.

Aber dass es tatsĂ€chlich nunmal so ist, erkenne ich nach Recherche an. FĂŒr andere Skeptiker, hier eine klare Darlegung: schickhardt-law.com/wann-sind-


in reply to Bilal Barakat 🍉

@bifouba Ja, inhaltlich stimme ich mit dir ĂŒberein: entweder, jeder kann die Aufwendungen fĂŒr die Abmahnung abrechnen (also egal, ob man einen Anwalt beauftragt hat, oder ĂŒber eigene Sachkenntnis verfĂŒgt), oder niemand.

In praktisch allen anderen Rechtssystemen kann niemand diese Aufwendungen abrechnen: der Erfolg der Abmahnung ist im eigenen Interesse, also kann man wohl auch etwas Arbeit reinstecken. Das sind ja in der Regel Standardformulierungen, und ein paar Belege, fertig. Weil der Arbeitsaufwand in krassem MissverstĂ€ndnis zu den erlösbĂ€ren GebĂŒhren steht (praktisch leistungsloses Einkommen), wird bei uns abgemahnt, dass die Schwarte kracht.

Just did some upgrades, service and thermal cleaning on a ThinkPad T470s laptop.

This laptop has two internal batteries. The back one was a bit puffy "spicy pillow". I had another used battery on hand that wasn't puffy, so replace it.

Replaced the thermal paste on the CPU.

Upgraded from 8GB to 12GB (one memory slot, 4GB on the motherboard, so took out a 4GB module and replaced with 8GB module).

Upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 with an installer made by Rufus, which bypasses the hardware requirements check.

Scanned for malware with Malwarebytes. It found a bunch of "mindspark" junk references and removed them.

Today in Labor History August 7, 1971: Jonathan Jackson, aged 17, brother of imprisoned Black Panther George Jackson, raided a Marin County, CA courtroom with an automatic weapon, and freed prisoners James McClain, William A. Christmas and Ruchell Magee. He took a judge, Deputy DA, and three jurors hostage. He demanded the release of the "Soledad Brothers," including his brother. Police killed 3 of the hostages as they attempted to drive away from the courthouse, as well as Jonathan Jackson and the freed inmates. Angela Davis, who owned the weapons used by Jackson, was jailed for 2 years, but was later acquitted of conspiracy, kidnapping, and murder. Prior to the escape attempt, Davis had organized a defense committee for the Soledad Brothers which included Noam Chomsky, Pete Seeger, Marlon Brando, Jame Fonda, the scientist Linus Pauling, Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Allen Ginsberg.

In 1970, George Jackson had published his book, “Soledad Brother,” a collection of his prison writings from the 1960s, including numerous letters he had written to his then kid brother Jonathan. He also wrote critically about racism and white supremacy, class, and the brutality of the prison system. The Soledad brothers were George Jackson, Fleeta Drumgo and John Clutchette, accused of murdering a prison guard at Soledad Prison, in California, in retaliation for the murder of three black inmates by prison guards three days prior. Clutchette and Drumgo were later acquitted. Jackson never got his day in court. He was murdered by prison guards, at San Quinten Prison, California, before his trial, exactly two weeks after his brother’s murder in the botched escape attempt. George Jackson had originally been imprisoned for the crime of stealing $70 from a gas station in 1961.

Journalist Laith Marouf Speaks Out After Military DETENTION for Reporting on Israeli Attacks odysee.com/journalist-laith-ma


Trop riche pour les BRICS, trop russe pour Bruxelles


Par Brian McDonald – Source Blog de l’auteur

Il y a des questions qui semblent acadĂ©miques jusqu’à ce que vous rĂ©alisiez que des guerres entiĂšres ont Ă©tĂ© lancĂ©es Ă  cause de leurs rĂ©ponses. L’une d’elles, chargĂ©e d’histoire, du genre sables mouvants politiques qui avalent les hommes plus vite que les balles, est la suivante : OĂč se place la Russie?

Dans un atlas la rĂ©ponse est Ă©vidente. La Russie est exactement lĂ  oĂč elle a toujours Ă©tĂ©, drapĂ©e Ă  travers les continents comme une grande vieille bĂȘte, la colonne vertĂ©brale au fond de la SibĂ©rie, le visage toujours tournĂ© – avec un air de dĂ©fi – vers l’Europe. Mais si vous regardez au-delĂ  des frontiĂšres et en profondeur, la question revient : qu’est-elle maintenant ?

Est-elle toujours le vilain petit canard de la famille europĂ©enne – blessĂ©e, sĂ©parĂ©e, mais reconnaissable comme parente ? Ou a-t-elle liĂ© son destin aux pays du Sud, main dans la main avec le BrĂ©sil et l’Afrique du Sud dans cet alphabet relĂąchĂ© que nous nommons BRICS?

Les chiffres racontent une version. Les histoires que nous nous racontons en disent une autre. Et quelque part entre les deux se trouve la vĂ©ritĂ© − tĂȘtue, changeante et difficile Ă  retenir.

Prenez les derniĂšres donnĂ©es mesurĂ©es par le FMI. Le salaire moyen (net) ajustĂ© en fonction de la PPA [ParitĂ© de Pouvoir d’Achat, NdT] de la Russie s’élĂšve dĂ©sormais Ă  3 340 dollars par mois − un rappel qu’il ne s’agit plus d’un « marchĂ© Ă©mergent » au sens sĂ©rieux du terme. Cela la place au-dessus de l’Italie (3 307 dollars), de la TchĂ©quie (3 022 dollars) et de la Lituanie (2 870 dollars). Elle frappe Ă  la porte de l’Espagne (3 459$) et non loin du Royaume-Uni (3 597$). Et la direction du trajet est importante : les revenus en roubles ont augmentĂ© de 16% d’une annĂ©e sur l’autre, selon Rosstat. Les chiffres ne sont pas seulement importants, ils deviennent de plus en plus importants.

Ensuite, regardons les BRICS. La Chine se situe autour de 2 000 dollars, un niveau supĂ©rieur au BrĂ©sil (1 210 dollars), Ă  l’Inde (900 dollars) ou Ă  l’Afrique du Sud (965 dollars). MalgrĂ© toute la montĂ©e en puissance de la Chine – ses trains Ă  grande vitesse, ses gratte-ciels et ses mĂ©gapoles tentaculaires – le niveau de vie russe reste, en moyenne, nettement plus Ă©levĂ©. Il ne nage pas vraiment dans les mĂȘmes eaux que ses partenaires des BRICS. Les Ă©tagĂšres sont plus pleines, les appartements plus chauds et mieux climatisĂ©s, la classe moyenne – mĂȘme meurtrie – plus solidement ancrĂ©e. Ce n’est pas le paysage d’une rĂ©volution industrielle inachevĂ©e ou d’une pauvretĂ© tentaculaire. Et pourtant, les BRICS n’ont jamais vraiment Ă©tĂ© une question de revenus. C’est une question d’effet de levier. Un contrepoids. Un refus d’accepter un monde arrangĂ© par Bruxelles ou par Washington. Et ici, la Russie s’adapte comme un poing serrĂ© : sanctionnĂ©e, encerclĂ©e par ses rivaux, mais impossible Ă  ignorer. Un poids lourd marquĂ© par la bataille, en plein essor parmi ses concurrents.

Mais les moyennes valent pour les Ă©conomistes et les menteurs. La Russie reste un pays de rĂ©gions, pas de gradients. L’écart entre les rĂ©gions les plus riches et les plus pauvres a maintenant atteint un record de 182 000 ₜ par mois, soit une diffĂ©rence de 2 330 dollars. En Tchoukotka, le salaire moyen est de 2 855$. En Ingouchie, il est 525$. À Moscou, Yamalo-Nenets, Magadan – vous pouvez atteindre 1 850$. En TchĂ©tchĂ©nie, au Daghestan, en OssĂ©tie, vous aurez la chance de dĂ©passer les 600 dollars.

Et ce ne sont que les chiffres visibles. L’économie informelle est vaste, reprĂ©sentant de 30 Ă  50% du PIB selon certaines estimations. Les salaires sont payĂ©s en espĂšces, en faveurs ou en silence. L’économie rĂ©elle – celle dans laquelle les gens vivent rĂ©ellement – Ă©volue d’une maniĂšre qu’aucune feuille de calcul ne peut Ă©valuer.

Mais mĂȘme Ă  travers cette distorsion, une image Ă©merge. Ce n’est pas l’Inde ou le BrĂ©sil. Ce n’est pas l’Afrique du Sud. Ni en revenus, ni en infrastructures, ni en capital humain. La Russie est autre chose ; plus riche qu’elle ne le laisse entendre, plus dĂ©veloppĂ©e que beaucoup ne voudraient l’admettre, et si difficile Ă  catĂ©goriser qu’aucun acronyme ne le permet.

Pourtant, le Kremlin a fait son choix. Pas seulement dans le commerce, mais dans le ton.

« Les marchĂ©s europĂ©ens, les Ă©conomies europĂ©ennes – ce sont des Ă©conomies mourantes », a dĂ©clarĂ© Maxim Oreshkin, le principal conseiller Ă©conomique de Poutine, lors d’un forum en dehors de Moscou, cette semaine, comme un homme qui prononce les derniers sacrements. « L’Allemagne stagne depuis des annĂ©es.” À ses yeux, seule l’Inde se compare Ă  la Russie en termes de potentiel Ă  long terme – mais mĂȘme lĂ , dit-il, “la mentalitĂ©â€ Ă©touffe l’initiative.

Vous pouvez vous moquer. Vous pouvez hocher la tĂȘte. Mais vous ne pouvez pas l’ignorer ; c’est ainsi que le Kremlin voit le monde en 2025. Et de cette vision dĂ©coule sa politique. Puis vient l’alignement. Et enfin la stratĂ©gie.

Ce n’est pas non plus seulement de la rhĂ©torique. La Russie se reconstruit Ă  l’image des chaebols de CorĂ©e du Sud – non pas par conception, peut-ĂȘtre, mais par nĂ©cessitĂ©. L’ancien modĂšle oligarchique est mis de cĂŽtĂ©. À sa place : des gĂ©ants corporatifs comme Severstal, Norilsk Nickel, Rosatom, tentaculaires, verticalement intĂ©grĂ©s, politiquement alignĂ©s.

Le milliardaire Alexei Mordashov a averti que ce changement comporte des risques – monopoles, stagnation, Ă©tranglement des petites entreprises. Mais est-ce pire que ce qui s’est passĂ© avant ? L’époque oĂč Roman Abramovich, Mikhail Friedman, Andrey Melnichenko ont dĂ©pouillĂ© des milliards du pays, achetĂ© des manoirs Ă  Londres, des chalets en Suisse, garĂ© leurs yachts en MĂ©diterranĂ©e et franchi les aĂ©roports avec plus de passeports que de principes ?

Un magnat moscovite m’a dit l’annĂ©e derniĂšre, sans ciller, que plus de 2 000 milliards de dollars nets avaient Ă©tĂ© “arrachĂ©s Ă  la Russie” entre 1991 et 2021. Une somme faramineuse. Un saignement lent, d’annĂ©e en annĂ©e. Peut-ĂȘtre que maintenant, enfin, les artĂšres sont refermĂ©es.

Alors encore une fois, nous demandons : oĂč se situe la Russie ?

Pas dans les BRICS, si nous parlons des fondamentaux Ă©conomiques. Ses niveaux de revenus, sa base industrielle et son dĂ©veloppement urbain ressemblent plus Ă  Varsovie ou Ă  Milan qu’à Pretoria ou Ă  SĂŁo Paulo. Elle peut commercer avec les pays du Sud, mais elle ne vit pas comme eux.

Et pourtant elle n’a pas vraiment sa place en Europe non plus. Pas politiquement. Plus maintenant.

Ça fait longtemps que l’atmosphĂšre s’est refroidie. Des annĂ©es. EnfermĂ© dehors, enfermĂ© dans une boĂźte, on en parlait dans chaque piĂšce mais on ne la laissait jamais passer la porte. L’OTAN est juste devant la clĂŽture, suffisamment prĂšs pour l’entendre respirer. Et pendant ce temps, l’Europe de l’Ouest remonte son col et traverse la rue. Bruxelles a fait de son mieux pour jouer la duchesse effarouchĂ©e, prĂ©tendant que tout cela est Ă  sens unique – comme si l’histoire Ă©tait une chose qui n’arrive qu’aux autres. Et chaque artiste russe, chaque athlĂšte, chaque voix avec cet accent distinctif – brossĂ© avec la mĂȘme nuance de culpabilitĂ©.

Une partie de cela, bien sĂ»r, est le propre fait de la Russie. Pas moyen de contourner ça. Mais pas tout. Et l’effet est le mĂȘme dans les deux cas : un continent qui se dĂ©tourne d’un pays qui a autrefois contribuĂ© Ă  façonner son Ăąme.

Car ne nous leurrons pas, la Russie est europĂ©enne. Pas seulement sur la carte, mais dans sa chair. Dans sa musique, ses cathĂ©drales, ses tragĂ©dies. Dans le long et sombre arc de ses romans. Elle souffre comme l’Europe. Elle pense comme l’Europe. Il rĂȘve dans la mĂȘme tonalitĂ©.

Que sont Pouchkine, TolstoĂŻ, Tchekhov, sinon des maĂźtres europĂ©ens ? Qu’est-ce que TchaĂŻkovski sinon l’écho d’un continent ? Avons-nous oubliĂ© Tarkovski ? Chostakovitch et sa Lady Macbeth de Mtsensk ?

Qu’en est-il du christianisme orthodoxe, nĂ© de Byzance, enracinĂ© Ă  Constantinople, ramifiĂ© sur le mĂȘme sol que Rome et AthĂšnes ?

Que l’Europe occidentale ait choisi d’oublier cela − par peur, fureur ou fatigue − est une tragĂ©die. Que la Russie puisse l’oublier aussi en serait une bien plus grande.

Donc non, la Russie ne s’intùgre pas parfaitement dans les BRICS. Mais elle n’est pas non plus complùtement hors d’Europe. Elle est prise entre deux orbites, tournant sous un ciel qui ne sait plus comment la nommer.

C’est peut-ĂȘtre d’ailleurs l’endroit le plus russe de tous.

I think a big problem is there are a lot of people who have no concept of what it means to love some one, or to be loved unconditionally.

Of course sex "getting laid" can be a separate issue from this to some degree. But, I think it's always linked and some people allow their "lack of success" in what they see as a video game of "getting laid" to drain their sense of self worth.

Abuse culture conflates love with fear.

Lonely insecure people get taught they'll feel loved when they are treated as important. But even if they manage to get a whole harem waiting on them hand and foot, something is missing and the feeling of insecurity never goes away.

It's tough to have healthy relationships when one has been taught that anyone who acts at all like they care about you is lowering and weakening themselves-- simping-- and thus to be looked down upon.

This would be like coming in here, as an african-american and saying that everyone can use the n-word. I don't have to listen to something that patently goes against the prevailing opinion of most african-americans. And I would be remiss not to point out to someone who isn't black that you shouldn't do that. That discourse has been done to death that white people need to call out racism. Just like men need to call out sexism. That's not entitled, that's just trying to live in a world free from prejudice.

But anyway, bye 👋

I might have to take a look at maybe seeing if I could find an i3 version of this. That would be pretty cool, personally speaking.

Taking a look at the script, though, it might not be too bad if I find a way to do it with i3 or Hypr. I might need to get my producer, Neigsendoig, looking into that.

You can export Notesnook notes in a markdown format if you want to take them with you. It's hard to beat their encryption and privacy setup.

Heptabase is not opensource. You can try the app for 1 week for free. I have been following HB since it's alpha development approx 3.5 years ago (and moderate their Discord channel as well). They have a small dev team that are very open and accessible. They have been able to self-sustain via their subscription model from very early on, even though there were early 'seed' and Angel stage investors (who I am told by the founder are very hands-off)

Not sure if you are on Discord, but I can share NN and HB invites so you can poke around, ask questions, and read up on development if you like:
HB: discord.gg/A9ZpMumm
NN: discord.gg/xQGMXjwC

in reply to Nead

@Nead The ability to export notes isn't enough, unfortunately. I want to be able to access note files directly, and manipulate them freely using other applications. That's what I mean by "using an open format".

Heptabase seems to focus on visuals. My use case is very simple though: plain text notes, with occasional embedded images. HB is neither free nor open source. I'm afraid it's not for me.

And I'm not on Discord.

Thanks for the suggestions though. I appreciate it 😀
