Fino al 31 agosto sarà ancora possibile visitare Human Distance, Tempi di cronaca e Ritratti di giornalisti nel conflitto Israele-Gaza. L’omaggio a Giancarlo Siani rimarrà a Ronchi fino a fine anno

Dopo il successo dell’XI edizione del Festival del Giornalismo di Leali delle Notizie che, dall’10 al 15 giugno, ha richiamato migliaia persone a Ronchi dei Legionari, i riflettori restano ancora accesi sulle mostre. Accanto agli oltre 60 incontri, infatti, nel ricco programma culturale della manifestazione quest’anno ci sono ben quattro esposizioni, tutte ancora visitabili.

Rimarrà allestita fino a fine anno nel centro di Ronchi Giancarlo, le istantanee di una storia, carrellata di immagini e testi per non dimenticare Giancarlo Siani, il giovane giornalista ucciso dalla camorra 40 anni fa, il 23 settembre 1985, a Napoli, solo per aver fatto bene il proprio lavoro; la mostra è organizzata in collaborazione con la Fondazione Giancarlo Siani.

Sempre a Ronchi, questa volta nell’Auditorium comunale Casa della cultura, si potrà visitare fino al 31 agosto Ritratti di giornalisti nel conflitto Israele – Gaza di Gianluca Costantini, artista – attivista che, dal 7 ottobre 2023, collaborando attivamente con il Committee to Protect Journalist di New York, ha costruito, giorno per giorno, un memoriale visivo dedicato agli operatori dell’informazione che hanno pagato con la vita il loro impegno per continuare a raccontare quanto sta accadendo nella Striscia di Gaza.

La sede di Leali delle Notizie (in piazzetta Francesco Giuseppe) accoglie, fino al 31 agosto, Human Distance di Paolo Tanze, fotografo amatoriale che ci permetterà di scoprire scorci dell’Europa centro-orientale molto diversi tra loro, ma che vedono come filo conduttore l’inserimento della figura umana nel contesto.

Fino al 31 agosto, a Gradisca D’Isonzo, nella Corte D’Aviano di palazzo Torriani, sarà esposta Tempi di cronaca, dai giornali ai social occasione per rivivere importanti pagine di Storia – dalla camera ardente di Fidel Castro alla strage di Capaci, dal Carnevale di Venezia ai tempi del Covid alle monetine lanciate contro Bettino Craxi, dal soldato afghano che piange i suoi compagni al boss mafioso Totò Riina, dalle navi da crociera che ‘minacciano’ Venezia fino al naufragio dei migranti a Lampedusa – grazie agli scatti di tre grandi fotoreporter come Luciano del Castillo, Franco Lannino e Manuel Silvestri.

Il governo ha risposto a un’interpellanza del M5s, sul caso dei cinque poliziotti infiltrati dentro Potere al Popolo: “Gli operatori non hanno mai svolto attività di infiltrazione in alcun partito o movimento politico, hanno solo partecipato alle manifestazioni pubbliche organizzate da aggregazioni studentesche con connotazioni estremistiche, che avevano manifestato una crescente aggressività”, ha detto il sottosegretario Prisco, ammettendo che l’attività di controllo dentro Potere al Popolo è stata effettivamente svolta, per ragioni di sicurezza.

After successfully fending off three subpoenas from filmmakers seeking user data related to piracy discussions, Reddit is back in federal court. The company is now requesting over $55,000 in legal compensation, suggesting that these repeated requests amount to an "anti-piracy publicity campaign" that chills lawful speech by Reddit’s users.

Reddit Claims Anti-Piracy Subpoenas Are a "Publicity Campaign," Seeks $55K in Fees * TorrentFreak

Reddit seeks over $55k in fees from filmmakers, arguing their repeated subpoenas for user data are an "anti-piracy publicity campaign".

Mamdani, a 33-year-old New York state assemblyman, shocked the political world last month with a primary win over former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned his position in 2021 after several women accused him of sexual harassment.

The Times noted that on the campaign trail, Mamdani touted his Muslim faith and South Asian ancestry. He was born in Uganda in 1991 and moved with his parents to South Africa five years later. Two years later, the family moved to New York.

::: spoiler The Times report cited a figure who goes by the name Crémieux on X and Substack:

• Last month’s cyberattack appears to have been carried out in order to see if Columbia was still using race-conscious affirmative action in its admission policies after the Supreme Court effectively barred the practice in 2023.
• While Mr. Mamdani was not a target of the hack, the information about him was included in a database of millions of student applications to Columbia going back decades. The data was shared with The Times by an intermediary who goes by the name Crémieux on Substack and X. He provided the data under condition of anonymity, although his identity has been made public elsewhere. He is an academic who opposes affirmative action and writes often about I.Q. and race.
  :::

One of the speakers at the conference is billed under a social media alias, Cremieux, but the Guardian has corroborated that the account is apparently run by Jordan Lasker, a long-time proponent of eugenics.

::: spoiler The @cremieuxrecueil X account has been boosted or engaged with dozens of times by that platform’s proprietor, Elon Musk, often on the topic of falling birthrates.

• On 27 November, Musk reposted a Cremieux comment on falling birthrates, adding: “With rare exception, all countries are trending towards population collapse.”
• On 29 April, Cremieux posted: “Only about a third of the world even meets replacement rate fertility. This is the biggest problem of our time.” Musk responded: “Yes.”
• Musk has also boosted or responded favorably to Cremieux posts on other rightwing hobby horses such as crime in Portland, Oregon, and allegations that Democrats had created loopholes in the asylum system.
• Away from X, Cremieux runs a Substack also featuring posts on the supposed relationships between race and IQ. A prominently featured post there seeks to defend the argument that average national IQs vary by up to 40 points, with countries in Europe, North America, and East Asia at the high end and countries in the global south at the low end, and several African countries purportedly having average national IQs at a level that experts associate with mental impairment.

Some key insights from the article:

Basically, what they did was to look at how much batteries would be needed in a given area to provide constant power supply at least 97% of the time, and the calculate the costs of that solar+battery setup compared to coal and nuclear.

In a recent discussion it was mentioned that the search function in Lemmy is awkward to use and could be improved. As a result I already made two small changes:
- Change community selector to use !community@example.com format (#3218)
- Search field in community sidebar (#3217)

Are there any other UI or UX changes you can think of to improve searching in Lemmy? Im mainly looking for frontend changes, such as reorganizing the input positions, changing default values etc.

The Justice Department is advancing a radical theory of presidential power, nullifying Congress’s foreign affairs powers whenever the president finds them inconvenient.

These letters provide a legal rationale (if it can be called that) for the Trump administration’s commitment not to enforce the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act (PAFACAA), the divestment-or-ban law that the Supreme Court upheld in January. The letters make two central claims, both of which are astonishing in their breadth and implications for executive power.
