Same old right-wing nepo Party play book find the money teet, 🦃 'gobble-gobble' 🦃; coupled with disturbing fraud or disastrous incompetence in managing Party finances, you take your pick. Incompetence and catastrophy for Nation in Government is assured.

They give normal people nothing.. at best.. or they might deport you... "yass queeeen!" 💯

As the Israeli/American war on Iran rages on, it becomes clearer and clearer that the tactics used in Gaza are being repeated in Iran, with the U.S. and Israel targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure in an attempt to destroy Iran as a society.

The most horrific example has been the America/Israeli strike that hit a girls’ school in Minab, killing 165 children.

But this is not the only example of Israel and U.S. attacks targeting Iranian civilians and civilian infrastructure.

Drop Site News reported that when “Dozens of teenage girls were attending their regular training sessions of volleyball, basketball, and gymnastics in the main sports hall in Lamerd, a city near the Persian coast,” “a missile slammed into the building at 5 p.m. on Saturday” which, “killed at least 18 civilians and wounded scores more.”.

Drop Site noted that this strike “came hours after” the aforementioned strike at the girls’ school in Minab.

Today, the targeting of civilians in Iran by the U.S. and Israel has continued...

Microsoft’s aggressive AI push in Windows 11 through 2025 brought upon themselves the title Microslop. Unfortunately for the company, it’s everywhere on social media, and there isn’t a way to stop the spread, unless, of course, it’s their own Discord server.

Just for fun: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/microslop/

I'll see about the compost lid some other day I guess.

from The Wire [online publication of Jewish Voice For Peace JVP in USA]

For over 28 months, the Israeli military has not only murdered Palestinians en masse, but also systematically destroyed and restricted Palestinians’ access to their homes, to clean water, food, medical care, schools, Internet, fuel, and electricity. These are all tactics of genocide: destroying the conditions required for life.

Despite the so-called “ceasefire,” the Israeli government is continuing to use the creation of unlivable conditions as a tool of ethnic cleansing and genocide. Right now, the reality for millions of Palestinians in Gaza is one of decimated homes and unlivable conditions, trapped between a militarized border and open gunfire.

Some may have believed they were against AI being used for war. They just don’t want it to make the final kill decision.

The argument given by those supporting them is that AI in the military was inevitable, so their position is a reasonable one.

Playing around with a new self-host NAS OS, finally thought about Tailscale. But, I see it wants a login to an account. Checking online, seems I have to use Google, Apple, MS, Github or OIDC (which iassume costs money based on the site).

So how tf y'all setting to your tail scale stuff? I'm not using a big brother us tech account for auth on this thing. Think I'd rather go back to regular wireguard if that's the case.

Edit: OK I see you can use regular email. It didn't load the webpage correctly the first time or I missed it. Odd. Anyway, I do don't want an account add I don't want to risk any data compromise at some point
