Basically, in its dumbass attempt to outlaw the crosswalks memorializing the Pulse nightclub shooting victims in Florida and a BLM-themed crosswalk in DC, the Trump admin overshot and made a Buddy Holly themed crosswalk illegal, too.

Data released by the Bankwest Curtin Economics Centre and the Valuing Children Initiative on Monday found 950,000 children will live in poverty in 2025 — more than 15 per cent of all kids in Australia. That's up from 713,000 four years ago.

Poland's prime minister has said an explosion on a railway line leading to the Ukraine border this weekend was caused by "an unprecedented act of sabotage", and vowed to catch those responsible "regardless of who their backers are".

Visiting the scene this morning, Donald Tusk said the damage done to the railway tracks on Sunday was deliberate and likely aimed at blowing up the train. He expressed relief there were no casualties.

Speaking later in Warsaw, after an emergency meeting of security officials, Poland's special services minister said there was a "very high chance" that the blast was carried out on the orders of "foreign services".

Given Apple's current locked-down trajectory with the Mac, the Mac Pro was gonna die eventually, and it's for the best that it does given it was reduced to little more than a massively overpriced Mac Studio grafted onto a useless PCIe backplane; a $12k grift, basically.

PCs at least are still modular and expandable; for now.

I currently have an 8gb ddr4 3200mhz stick of ram in my pc. If I were to pop another 8gb ddr4 but 2400mhz in there, would doubling up on gb outweigh performance lost from the speed going down to 2400mhz?

Hey all, just wondering if anyone has any good self-hosted security cam recs? Have plenty of space and server options, and next big thing on my list is to get rid of my battery cloud cams. They have worked well enough I guess for a few years, but really pretty slow and limited, wondering if anyone has experience with any self-hosted solutions, preferably with similar features ie: motion detection, app/webapp, maybe battery op?

Coming from someone who is "childfree" and in my line of work sometimes maybe most of the times, I think I see dads that maybe shouldn't have been.

I get that I'm harsh, and I can't tell from one example obviously but I feel sometimes there's social pressure to have kids.

So for you, What makes you a father figure.

Capital flight is ultimately a myth cause the people who complain about high taxes and moving are already not paying taxes.

The vast majority of people aren't going to give up their homes to save a few bucks.

Comrades… I don’t even know how to start this but I need to share something painful and urgent.

These past few days in Juba have been so heavy. We’ve been struggling to pay the remaining 200 usd of our 900 usd rent so the caretaker can reconnect our water. Thanks to the incredible support from kind comrades, we managed to pay 700 usd and he turned our WiFi and electricity back on. That helped a little but without water even the smallest things…cooking, washing, bathing…feel impossible. We’re doing our best to survive.

Then something I never imagined happened.

Three of my girls pretty, olivia and charity left the house to fetch water like we used to do before the attack. I expected them to be back in a few hours… but they never returned.

I spent three sleepless nights searching, asking around and walking everywhere my fear could imagine. Nothing. I was shaking, praying someone had at least seen them.

Today, I went to the nearest police post to report them missing. One officer told me he knew where they were. My whole body went cold. I begged him to take me to them. After he spoke with another officer, they directed me to where my girls were being held. Right now, I’m at the police station, waiting. I haven’t been allowed to see or speak to them yet. I don’t know their condition or what they’ve been through. I’m just praying they’re safe.

Please keep us in your thoughts. I’ll update you as soon as I can.

Every kind heart reading this…please also consider checking my profile and our fundraiser. Your support keeps us alive and safe especially in moments like this.

A string of incidents over the last month has revealed the extent to which bigotry and Jew hatred have taken center stage in the Republican Party and the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, which ushered Donald Trump to a second term in the White House.

These events show how deep anti-Black racism and antisemitism are within the ultra-right. This political current has the wind in its sails with Trump’s electoral victory last year and the actions of his administration since January — especially sweeping arrests and deportations of undocumented immigrant workers and attacks on democratic rights.
