A large number of very vocal people who call themselves Atheists line of thinking is I want to be allowed to do whatever I want then not face the consequences of my decisions, they seem to believe that humanity is not subject to the laws of physics but creates the laws of physics by consensus

m.youtube.com/shorts/mkhXwivlZ…

Instead of warning about the consequences of smoking & having reasons & self discipline not to smoke they blame nicotine for making them smoke - typical so called Atheists attitude

Trump Administration Poised to Cut SSI Benefits for Nearly 400,000 Low-Income Disabled and Older People

The average annual savings from these benefit cuts would barely pay for a single day of the massive tax cuts for the wealthy that are part of the Republican megabill enacted in July.

No Other Land 2024 -2025 Oscar & Berlinal best doc - Colonization of Palestinian village in West Bank filmed by dwellers

Subs in : French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Czech, Greek, Dutch, Italian, Brazil, Polski, Russian, Croatian,

Awdah Hathaleen who helped make this documentary was murdered on July 29th by Zionist settler armed and protected by IOF..

An Israeli settler, who Donald Trump removed from US sanctions list in January, has killed a Palestinian journalist and community leader who helped make the Oscar-winning documentary 'No Other Land'.
A Palestinian activist, journalist and community leader has been shot and killed in front of a community centre in a village near Hebron, in occupied West Bank - a village which was documented in the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land.

This was the straw that broke the camel's back and had decide to display this movie on my PeerTube channel.
This, and also the fact that when checking on the internet where the movie, that won 2 distinguished awards in Berlin and LA, as best documentary movie was quasi not shown in any theater all over Europe.

In Paris, my home town, it has been displayed for a couple of weeks, in a 2 rooms theater of 60 seats.
It deserves to be advertised.
The LUMINOR, 20 rue du Temple, 75004 Paris.

NBC News reported that the film did not secure theatrical distribution in the United States due to political sensitivities around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
However, the movie is available to view in select independent theaters in US and Europe.

Anytime a theater tries to show it, even in private events in universities, Zionist lobbying succeeds in cancelling it.
WELL, TRY AND CANCEL THIS !

The film, a joint Palestinian-Israeli production directed by Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, chronicles the struggle by residents to stop the Israeli military from demolishing their villages in Masafer Yatta. It won Best Documentary at the Berlinale last year and at the Oscars this year.

Basel Adra and Yuval Abraham confirmed the tragic news, with Abraham sharing a video on X showing the Israeli settler identified as Yinon Levi breandishing a handgun and shooting.

Abraham described Awdah as “a remarkable activist who helped us film No Other Land in Masafer Yatta”, while Adra said on social media: “My dear friend Awdah was slaughtered this evening. He was standing in front of the community centre in his village when a settler fired a bullet that pierced his chest and took his life. This is how Israel erases us – one life at a time.”
Israel's military said an armed Israeli civilian opened fire at a group of Palestinians after they threw rocks. Israeli police responded to the incident, but no charges have been filed against Yinon Levi.

What is the film about?

The film was produced from 2019 to 2023 and comprises mostly personal camcorder footage filmed by Palestinian activist Basel Adra, 28, who documents the Israeli military’s destruction of his hometown, Masafer Yatta in a small, rugged region in the southern occupied West Bank.

The film highlights Israeli demolitions of homes in the village, which the Israeli military wants to turn into a military training zone. Its footage shows the Israeli military razing a school and filling water wells with cement, so residents cannot rebuild.

Adra made the film with Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham, who co-directed it along with Palestinian filmmaker Hamdan Ballal and Israeli filmmaker Rachel Szor.

During his Oscar acceptance speech on Sunday night in Los Angeles, Adra said his film “reflects the harsh reality we have been enduring for decades and still resist as we call on the world to take serious actions to stop the injustice and to stop the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian people”.

“About two months ago, I became a father, and my hope to my daughter is that she will not have to live the same life I’m living now.”

Abraham said in his speech: “When I look at Basel, I see my brother. But we are unequal. We live in a regime where I am free under civilian law and Basel is under military laws that destroy lives, that he cannot control,” he said.

The film was released months after deadly Hamas-led attacks in southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which triggered Israel’s war on Gaza.

Been keeping an eye on the #WordCampUS 2025 ticket report. With a month to go, they've sold just over 500. Add the 126 comped tickets for volunteers, speakers, sponsors, etc., and we're at ~650 attendees.

The event's website, however, still boasts that 1500+ professionals will be at #WCUS. That's some pretty optimistic math. :melting_thinking:

Nobody’s officially saying that things are bad out loud, but the ticket sales numbers on the report linked upthread don’t lie.

Tickets to #WCUS are now 50% off… :melting_cringe:

I don’t think $100 → $50 tickets to a #WordPress conference (already very affordable by tech conference standards) was the actual barrier that needed to be lowered.

Post from the Executive Director of WordPress, Mary Hubbard, on LinkedIn: In just three weeks, WordCamp US will bring us back together in Portland. In my short time here, some of the most impactful moments I’ve had in this project started face-to-face, at WordCamps, speaking to the community, and getting to know you: the hallway talks, the spontaneous mentorship, the spark of a new idea. These moments remind me why I continue to believe so deeply in the power of open source and the people who make it thrive. I see the same inspiration and desire to build something greater from fresh faces to those who have been involved with WordPress for years. I can't wait to see you all again at WCUS. There’s room for everyone: students, freelancers, enterprise teams, and everyone in between who makes the web better. I hope to see you there. Come say hi, I’d love to connect. If you haven’t grabbed your ticket yet, now’s the time. Use code MARY50 for 50% off: [link to purchase tickets]

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?

Tagsüber ist es heiß (heute 38 Grad) - und Wasser knapp, auch auf der Farm der Familie Nassar.

Wie eingeschränkt die Wasserversorgung derzeit für Palästinenser*innen in der Westbank ist, zeigen a) dieser aktuelle Bericht: middleeasteye.net/news/how-isr… und b) diese Studie von #Btselem aus dem Jahr 2023: reliefweb.int/attachments/6aa4…

Zwei Personen stehen gebeugt über zwei Gieskannen, eine grün, eine gelb. Die eine Person gießt Wasser aus einem Kanister in eine der beiden kannen. Links an der Seite stehen zwei weitere Kanister. Sie stehen auf einem steinigen Feld. Im Hintergrund sind junge Weinreben zu erkennen, am Rand des Feldes, hinter den Personen Gras.

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

As der Perspektive bleibe ich dabei, dass es nicht schlüssig ist, dass Anwälte ⋅offensichtlich⋅ nicht unter Berücksichtigung der eigenen Arbeitszeit kostenpflichtig abmahnen können.

Aber dass es tatsächlich nunmal so ist, erkenne ich nach Recherche an. Für andere Skeptiker, hier eine klare Darlegung: schickhardt-law.com/wann-sind-…

Wann sind Kosten eines Rechtsanwaltes für eine Abmahnung erstattungsfähig? - Schickhardt Rechtsanwälte

@bifouba Ja, inhaltlich stimme ich mit dir überein: entweder, jeder kann die Aufwendungen für die Abmahnung abrechnen (also egal, ob man einen Anwalt beauftragt hat, oder über eigene Sachkenntnis verfügt), 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 Missverständnis zu den erlösbären Gebühren 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.
