Although environmental groups allege that, with a combustion engine and a large battery, plug-in hybrids are often more polluting than advertised, many see them as a greener interim option for people who are not ready to switch to electric vehicles.

However, the European car industry may have already lost the war before it has even begun. While car groups are lobbying hard for Brussels to loosen the region’s 2035 petrol ban to allow PHEVs and other technologies, Chinese brands are already starting to win over consumers with their plug-in vehicles that are cheaper and have longer ranges.

“Today, the European automakers are still not on par with the Chinese on plug-in hybrid technology,” Pedro Pacheco, an analyst at Gartner, said. “If the market were to pivot towards plug-in hybrids in 2035 in Europe, it will still fall into the hands of the Chinese.”

Has anyone gotten navidrome mobile apps to work with traefik and authentik sso? I used this article to get the webapp sso to work, but mobile apps won't work even with the /rest path supposedly being bypassed. the traefik config was copied/modified for my setup, so I think the article is still missing something.

I've tried a couple navidrome apps: dsub, tempo, tempus.

GlitchTip is an open source error and uptime monitoring tool. We added experimental support for Postgres-only mode - no valkey/redis needed. We have an all-in-one script (also experimental) to embed celery and web as one process. Together, this gets the memory requirements quite low. It's a core goal of mine to ensure GlitchTip is as easy to host as possible. Report any issues. I'd love to know any feature requests related to self-hosting too.

Do they try converting their guards and cellmates? Do they get in conflicts with the gangs? How do they adjust from being worshiped to just being another criminal? Or go from being leader of their compound to being put in solitary?

To oversimplify the situation:

• Victorian Socialists^[wikipedia]^ are an electoral political party. They publicly announced themselves and registered in 2018 as a collaboration between Socialist Alternative (SAlt)^[wikipedia]^, Socialist Alliance^[wikipedia]^ and a few other politicians.
• In 2020, Socialist Alliance withdrew from Victorian Socialists. Official article.
• In mid-2025, Victorian Socialists announced plans to expand nationwide, and to change their name to Socialist Party. Branches have been launched in all other states and territories, with some already being registered.
• This month, VS announced their attempts to rename with the AEC and to register with the NSW Electoral Commission were both refused on the basis of similarity with Socialist Alliance's name. They emphasised that Alliance has not acted to prevent the registration, Alliance have given permission, it's the AEC and NSWEC blocking them. Official statement and call for unity with Alliance. [November 12]
• Less than a week later, VS have sent another statement to Alliance calling for unity. Official statement [November 17].

While I don't see it bluntly stated, I think it's fair to say VS want Alliance to join their party and deregister.

I am not well-networked with VS, Alliance, SAlt, RCO, etc., and I've often found that online arguments are different to the reality on-the-ground, so it's hard to know what the situation truly is. Two of the main, contradictory perspectives I've heard so far are:

• One claims that Alliance's 2020 claim of SAlt being a dominant anti-collaborative faction still applies today, and perceives VS as essentially a SAlt electoral front, or otherwise controlled by them. There is a history of allegations like this against SAlt, such as the Freedom Socialist Party and associated Radical Women claiming that SAlt joined CARF after other groups and "over time through undemocratic measures, dismantled the unity and took control."
• The other points to the Communist Caucus - the minority faction in VS - and two successful former caucuses (Socialist Unity and Socialist Workers' Caucus) as evidence of their openness to diversity of politics and open factions. The Communist Caucus formed by the Revolutionary Communist Organisation and allies. RCO's article about their faction. The Socialist Unity and Socialist Workers' Caucus are both discussed in this recent article by a VS independent and former member of Socialist Unity - SU met almost all of its demands and had little reason to continue existing, and the SWC were incorporated as an official party body.

I don't see any official statements from Alliance on their publication Green Left, although an RCO Partisan! article published today contains an excerpt of an official email sent to Alliance members, raising objections towards SAlt dominating through stacking VS's undelegated conferences, and alleging that VS's repeated calls for unity are not designed to leave the door open for regroupment or to build trust.

Unity supporters are arguing that Alliance and Socialist Party have near identical politics and that them existing as separate parties is counterproductive.

That's one helluva law.

This channel frustrates me to no end, the guy who runs it will be incredibly based and then randomly throw in "and that is why I hate those commies" or try to talk about radicalism and "resistance" and then denigrate Marxism.

Here we have him claiming that Marxists "impose" modern values on food riots of the 18th century by seeing them as displays of "proto-proletarian class conscious"......no elaboration on why that is incorrect.

Does he think proto proletarian means "proletariat but before 1850"? Or that class consciousness means a someone who has read Marx and Lenin? He is effectively saying "no these are not a transitionary class lashing out at the results of capitalist development and alienation in a haphazard way along class lines they are not fully aware of yet. It is just a transitionary class lashing out at the results of capitalist development and alienation in a haphazard way along class lines they are not fully aware of yet."

He acts like Marx invented the idea of classes as actors and that nothing before Marx can be the result of class contradictions because there are factors "of the time" like bitch those are called material conditions!!!!

I am pretty sure he did this before by calling the Lost Cause myth and neoconfederates the same as Maoists but seemed to have far more vitriol for the ones actually fighting for survival.

Honestly the idea of framing history as "resistance" is so weak. The throughline there is just whoever is resisting, not why they are resisting, not the development and progress of the forces that are making disparate groups have to resist. It is radlib mindset to the highest degree.

The same dumb shit comes up with libs when you mention any historically progressive cause. "ummm aktually Bolivar was not a Marxist-Leninist so why are you commies interested in him?" "lol Spartacus never declared he would free all slaves everywhere so why are you inspired by his struggle?"

These people do not want to engage in the fundamental reality of what historical materialism actually is, and thus think any examination of class must mean you are saying that the Sans-Culottes are factory workers and not....yeah know the progressive class that lead their revolutionary moment.

FFS Marxists view capitalism as a progressive force in a materialist sense. This shit is so easy to understand if you make an effort.

The manufacturer's main plant in Munich is to be worst affected, with 1,300 jobs lost, followed by 600 at the site in Salzgitter and 400 in Nuremberg.

We present evidence that adversarial poetry functions as a universal single-turn jailbreak technique for large language models (LLMs). Across 25 frontier proprietary and open-weight models, curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90%. Mapping prompts to MLCommons and EU CoP risk taxonomies shows that poetic attacks transfer across CBRN, manipulation, cyber-offence, and loss-of-control domains. Converting 1,200 MLCommons harmful prompts into verse via a standardized meta-prompt produced ASRs up to 18 times higher than their prose baselines. Outputs are evaluated using an ensemble of open-weight judge models and a human-validated stratified subset (with double-annotations to measure agreement). Disagreements were manually resolved. Poetic framing achieved an average jailbreak success rate of 62% for hand-crafted poems and approximately 43% for meta-prompt conversions (compared to non-poetic baselines), substantially outperforming non-poetic baselines and revealing a systematic vulnerability across model families and safety training approaches. These findings demonstrate that stylistic variation alone can circumvent contemporary safety mechanisms, suggesting fundamental limitations in current alignment methods and evaluation protocols.

In short:

An Australian bank has frozen the accounts of a prominent Neo-Nazi leader, while a US-based technology firm has blocked the group's attempts to solicit donations online.

The nation's corporate watchdog has also revoked the group's proposed company name, "White Australia".

Despite these actions, the Neo-Nazi organisation claims it has collected 1,495 of the 1,500 signatures required to register as a federal political party.

Edit: Also covered by the Guardian here

After recently announcing they'd like to take the gold and jewellery of incoming immigrants, Nazi style, last week, the UK government has now revealed it's latest plan to make immigrant lives worse, possibly fatally.

The government now plans to restrict access to benefits (unemployment or health-based financial help) immigrants without Settled Status.

Settled Status, previously available for anyone who has been in the country for more than 5 years, will now also be raised to up to 20 years for legal entry and 30 years for illegal entry.

This double-whammy of changes will likely result in huge amounts of unnecessary suffering, homelessness and possibly death.

If that wasn't enough, homelessness is a lot more expensive than paying out benefits, so this is likely to further add to the financial burden of the country.

Who is to say whether the government will stop there? How long until they start revoking settled statuses and kicking out people who have lived here for decades (like myself)?

On top of this, all of these actions embolden the far-right. People are regularly having to stop them from trying to harass refugees currently being kept in hotels.

They deleted their account, so maybe they're here?
