Jul 15, 2025The New York Times has published an op-ed by a genocide scholar who says that he resisted acknowledging the truth of what Israel is doing in Gaza for as long as he could, but can no longer deny the obvious.It’s an admission that may as well have come from The New York Times itself.
In an article titled “I’m a Genocide Scholar. I Know It When I See It.”, a Brown University professor of Holocaust and genocide studies named Omer Bartov argues that “Israel is literally trying to wipe out Palestinian existence in Gaza,” and denounces his fellow Holocaust scholars for failing to acknowledge reality.

The Hague Group was created last year through the help of Progressive International, an organization founded in May 2020 to unite, organize, and mobilize progressive forces around the world. The Hague Group is pushing for an end to Israel’s offensive, and has organized this week’s emergency conference. Other organizations, including international human rights groups and organizations advocating for Palestinian rights, are present such as the Hind Rajab Foundation. Notably, Qatar and Egypt, which are overseeing negotiations between Hamas and the Israeli government, are in attendance.“There is nothing to negotiate about. Israel needs to withdraw from Gaza totally and unconditionally,” Albanese told Drop Site News during a press conference on Tuesday afternoon when asked about the negotiations between Hamas and Israel. “This is the first thing. And then Israel owes huge reparations to Palestinians for what it has done,” she added.

Recensione di Elsa Crema Marmori. L'ultima fatica di Giuseppe Iannozzi
Due delle mie poesie preferite, le più viscerali per me: "Padre e figlia" e "Sorella di Perfezione".
"Padre e figlia" è un potente inno alla vita, alla gioia, al sorriso che apre il cuore e scaccia le lacrime. Il tutto di fronte alla Bellezza dell'esistenza e della natura con i suoi momenti belli e brutti.
"Sorella di Perfezione" appare un testo denso e potente, ricco di urla fra i denti: è impossibile sfuggire a errori e passi falsi: la perfezione è un obiettivo, un ideale per cui lottare e imparare a crescere, e crescere, lo sappiamo

Looking for an alternative to google wallet, when it’s the default option to download a German travel card.
cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/33213275
I now reside in Germany and my current employer pays 50% of this so called Deutschland-Job-Ticket. There is no physical card but travel information you download to an android wallet, but apparently google wallet is the only available option. See the picture:
Google is a company I don’t trust with my data, neither do I expect your regular public transportation authority employee to care about his privacy (he looked at me as I was asking if 2 + 2 equal 4). I am not aware of non google based wallets where I can download the travel information.
I tried some f-droid and droidify options but it turns out they’re pure crap.
The site: abo.ride-ticketing.de/app/ I log in with my username and password, get my travel information and on the bottom the picture I uploaded.
Any workarounds?
This being Germany, shouldn’t there be an alternative to those who refuse google? Don’t I have that right as a consumer?
Another question: I screenshot my logged in session on the link I provided where you see my qr code and my billing data. The public transportation employee told me that’s not allowed (wtf?). Can anyone here provide a rationale?
like this
Are you 100% sure there is no physical card? Did you ask the local provider? I just ask, because I have a physical card for the Deutschland Ticket.
Other than that there is a Deutschland Ticket app. But it won't work for every provider. It does not for mine.
play.google.com/store/apps/det…

What happens if you go to the same website on desktop mode? In some regions they provide the Deutschlandticket as a qr code. Just make a screenshot of that.

il mio quaderno delle uccisioni 🥰 (quadernino per raccogliere i cadaveri delle zanzare)
Ormai lo sappiamo: la probabilità di riuscire casualmente a cacciare fuori nuove idee geniali e prestigiose è inversamente proporzionale alla “sanità mentale” (intesa come la intendono i normaloidi, che puntualmente sono quegli individui sempre perfettamente banalotti e persistentemente dimenticabili) media del momento preso in esame… Ed è proprio per questo che io mi rifiuterò sempre e comunque di prendere le “medicine”, e che come postulato a questa osservazione abbiamo proprio l’impeto creativo che ieri sera, nel mezzo della mia disperazione dovuta alle cose da fare, ho accolto senza pensarci due volte (…e che sul momento non ho avuto tempo di postare, mentre stamattina non ho avuto voglia, il pomeriggio me ne sono proprio scordata, e la sera appena finita ho fatto altro, ops). 🦟Allora, ieri sera è apparsa una zanzara davanti a me alla scrivania, di botto. Era molto scema, tant’è che l’ho ciaccata subito con le mani e senza nemmeno sporcarmi… ed è esattamente in quell’istante, vedendo bene a fuoco sotto il mio naso la carcassa di quell’essere della specie più assolutamente demoniaca — non banalmente fastidiosa, e non solamente aggressiva, ma attivamente invadente ed ostile, costantemente alla ricerca di creature a sangue caldo per l’intero globo terracqueo, con il preciso intento di violarle, fisicamente e, di conseguenza, emotivamente — ho avuto l’illuminazione definitiva. Quegli esseri immondi non vogliono semplicemente il mio o il vostro sangue — se così fosse, se lo prenderebbero tranquillamente da un piattino o qualcosa del genere lasciato in stanza, e detto francamente non mi dispiacerebbe affatto doverglielo cedere,
perché quantomeno avrei una scusa per tagliarmi considerata valida dai normaloidi…Quelle merde vogliono avvelenarci, con le loro punture fatte sempre a cazzo di cane, essendo loro spesso incapaci di centrare i vasi sanguigni, finendo per iniettare quantità industriali di sostanza irritante (è quella che causa il gonfiore) nell’epidermide, causando quel prurito infuocato difficilmente spiegabile a parole… 😖😡😠👹
Nel mentre che l’insettaccio allora giaceva morto ad aspettare, io cercavo un quadernino, di dimensioni piccole e poche pagine, giusto da usare per un solo preciso scopo… collezionare fisicamente questi cadaveri, affiancati da essenzialissimi necrologi (ovviamente scritti tutti con le penne colorate, in contrasto al nero della morte di per sé e di questi pezzi di biomassa). Non ce l’avevo, ovviamente, e non volevo prenderne uno buono grosso dal mio malloppetto, perché sul momento temevo che questa specie di mia sadica missione puramente vendicativa non potesse davvero continuare oltre quell’attimo… voglio dire, mica saranno tutte così sceme le zanzare da farsi continuare a prendere come ha fatto questa qui… E, invece, proprio stasera ne è uscita un’altra: siamo già a quota 2, su un totale stimato contenibile (se mantengo la corrente densità di archiviazione) di 72, per un raccoglitore che ho creato non altro che suddividendo 1 foglio protocollo A4 in una serie di fogli A5 spillati (quindi, blocchetto A6). 🐹
Forse è meglio che io sia arrivata solo ora, ben tardi come al solito, per fare questo post, allora… perché il quadernino è già molto più piacevole da vedere con ben due vittime, la cui esistenza malvagia è stata dalla sottoscritta terminata,per sempre. Mamma mia regà, lo dico senza mezzi termini: non solo ho proprio una voglia morbosa ed irrefrenabile di commettere un terribile genocidio contro questi affari, ma, non capisco perché, sento di doverne esporre in questo modo i resti alla gogna perpetua; e, tra carta e scotch, in questo mi sento assolutamente invincibile. Spero solo che non si decompongano, perché voglio che rimangano davvero per sempre, deve essere un monito… ma incastrati così non dovrebbero evaporare, suppongo; spero. 🥱Ma… sapete cosa? Vi butto anche una confessione, così, perché io sono fiera della mia malvagità, e me ne frego di cosa gli attivisti per i diritti degli insetti potrebbero dire… In realtà, questa estate, per il momento, non mi risulta di essere stata morsa nemmeno una volta dalle zanzare (o forse, letteralmente solo una volta e poi niente; anche perché di sera, che è il periodo in cui girano di più, io sto sempre segregata in casa)… o, se è successo, hanno prelevato il sangue sempre bene, ma francamente ne dubito. “Ohhh noooo, come puoi fare tutto questo, le zanzare ti stanno lasciando stare e tu le ringrazi in questo modo, razza di assassina” — SILENZIO!!! Il periodo che va dalla fine di un’estate all’inizio della successiva non determina la fine della guerra, ma meramente un periodo di cessate il fuoco; insomma, gli attacchi subiti in passato hanno ancora un peso, ed ora è francamente arrivato il momento più perfetto per le ritorsioni, le quali non sono ulteriormente ritardabili! (E, casomai questa argomentazione non dovesse convincere… diciamo che lo sto facendo per vendicare la gente a me vicina, che invece quest’estate sta venendo assalita tranquillamente, e la chiudiamo qui, buonanotte!) 😂🔪

Holidays in the Lake District
I recently went on a holiday trip to the Lake District in England, staying a week in Windermere. This was a really nice break, and it’s a wonderful place to explore.
The towns of Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere are lovely to explore, with plenty of nice places to eat out at. La Trattoria and Jintana in the town centre of Bowness are particularly good. The bus routes connecting the towns nearby, and with stops making walking routes accessible outwith the towns, are all fairly frequent and quite cheap to use. Walking in the towns in OK, but the traffic can be quite bad, and I really feel that the whole area would benefit from some modern traffic reduction schemes. There are a few cruises around the lakes that are a bit expensive, and a cheaper frequent ferry service to get across for walks or cycles.
I did two long distance walks over a whole day. I started with a clockwise walk around the lake, starting at Windermere, taking the ferry across, and hiking up Claife Heights, then continuing round to Ambleside. I stopped off at Wray Castle, which unfortunately has been closed for renovations. The views from Claife Heights gave some very nice vistas of the pikes to the west, and the air force exercises that take place over the lakes, while I had a picnic lunch.
The walking routes on the west side of Lake Windermere are fairly good, with lots of segregated pathways for cycles and hikers, but there are quite a few areas where inexplicably you have to rejoin a very busy carriageway which makes for some unpleasant negotiations with traffic.
Later in the week I did a longer walk starting with a bus up to Troutbeck, where I hiked along to High Street, and then back along the hiking trail to Windermere. This walk was less pleasant than the first as I spent most of the several hours stuck in cloud cover. The path is well marked so as long as I didn’t stray I couldn’t get lost, but it did mean that I missed out on the nice views, only getting a small glimpse of the valleys nearby at the very top of the trail.
I managed to see a lot of dragonfly and damselfly, and even a far off glimpse of a red kite. There were a lot of sheep, and a few deer, up the mountains.

Swapping from Win10 on laptop
I have an old laptop that I use as a Minecraft server as well as running RPG campaigns during game night. I'm getting tired of Windows 10 and I'm looking for a good replacement. I don't have a lot of experience with Linux lately, the last time I did anything with it was maybe 10 years or so ago and I used Ubuntu, which I've read here is maybe not a good choice any longer. Stats of laptop are below. Recommendations are appreciated, thanks.
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.70 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable)
Graphics Card NVIDIA Quadro K2100M (2 GB), Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 (113 MB)
You never see it mentioned, but PCLOS is a great Linux starter OS. It was started by Bill Reynolds, TexStar, and is tock solid. It is my go-to when installing Linux for new users because it is extremely stable, has a great community, and avoids anything bleeding edge.
www.distrowatch.com is a great place to get an overview of most Linux and BSD distros.

in reply to madeinthebackseat • • •I don't think that's where we're failing.
It became very obvious, a couple of weeks into Israel's retaliation, that this wasn't ever about the Hamas attacks but about wiping out every single Palestinian from Gaza.
But the EU is still searching for a spine, the US condones it, and the rest of the world doesn't really care enough.
And here we are, with dozens and dozens of innocent people being massacred every single day. It makes me sick to my stomach...

in reply to ByteJunk • • •Aceticon
in reply to IttihadChe • • •It depends on the country.
Germany "unwaveringly supports" it (it's tradition for them to support large scale extreme Racist Genocides, I guess) as does Italy (though there it seems more of a "brotherhood of Fascists" thing between their ruling coalition and the Zionists), whilst Spain and the Republic Of Ireland ~~condone~~ condemn it, and a bunch of others like The Netherlands and France make some noises of discomfort about it but still keep on selling weapons to Israel.
There really is no EU-wide agreement on this, though most of its member countries are slowly shifting against Israel.
PyroNeurosis
in reply to Aceticon • • •Either you meant to say condemn, or I have seriously misread the situation.
Aceticon
in reply to PyroNeurosis • • •Oops!
Thanks, corrected it now.
IttihadChe
in reply to Aceticon • • •Idk about Ireland, I could believe they are actually against it due to their history. But while the people of Spain strongly condemn it, and Spain thus puts out statements opposed, the government still supports it materially. Every so often they claim to stop buying/selling weapons from them, but continue to do so.
Unless I've missed something recently which is entirely possible I guess.
And as for other countries making noise of discontent but continuing support, that's still support. Joe Biden publicly claimed to call for ceasefire all the time, but continued to send weapons and never actually seriously demanded a ceasefire. It's rhetoric to subdues the populace on a topic they strongly disagree with the government.
小莱卡
in reply to IttihadChe • • •Exactly, i hate how people think Spain "condemns" Israel because Pedro Sánchez pays some lip service to satisfy it's voting base, but in actual reality they support Israel. Every single time that Pedeo Sánchez has states that they are no longer doing business with Israel, it's proven that they indeed continue doing business with Israel.
People only caring about fucking rhetoric and not reality drives me insane.
