Are you tired of missing a demonstration because the algorithm only shows you rubbish? Are you worried that the organisations you follow need to censor what they write so that their accounts don't get shut down? Or maybe you refuse to use the big platforms, but find it difficult to know what's going on in town?
Sociala medier underifrån (social media from below) is a Gothenburg-based campaign by a few left-wing and queer organisations that want to help fill alternatives to the networks of the evil tech giants with life. The participating organisations will use the alternatives Mastodon and Mobilizon (which this website is based on), which are non-commercial social networks by and for us. In this workshop, we will talk about why we need these alternatives and show you how to use them in practice! No prior knowledge is required, we will learn step by step together! Feel free to bring a mobile phone or laptop if you can – then you can create an account right away.
We will take plenty of breaks and there will be food and snacks during the workshop. Pre-registration is not required, but it helps us estimate how much fika we need to prepare.
Please feel free to comment here or contact us at info@underifran.se if you have any questions!

Är du trött på att missa demon för algoritmen bara visar dig skit? Är du orolig över att organisationerna du följer behöver censurerar det de skriver för att deras konton inte ska bli avstängt? Eller vägrar du kanske de stora plattformar, men tycker det är svårt att veta vad som händer i stan?
Sociala medier underifrån är en Göteborgs-baserat kampanj av några vänster och queerorganisationer som vill hjälpa till att fylla alternativ till de onda techjätternas nätverk med liv. Organisationerna som deltar i kampanjen kommer använda alternativen mastodon och mobilizon (vilket denna webbsida baserar på), som är icke-kommersiella sociala nätverk av och för oss. I denna workshop pratar vi om varför vi behöver dessa alternativ och kommer praktiskt visa hur du kan använda dem! Ingen förkunskap krävs, vi tar allt tillsammans steg för steg! Ta gärna med en mobil eller laptop om du har möjlighet - så kan du direkt skaffa ett konto.
Vi kommer ta gott om pauser och det kommer finnas mat- och kakfika under workshoppen. Föranmälan krävs inte, men hjälper oss att uppskatta hur mycket fika vi behöver fixa. Denna workshop kommer vara hållas på engelska om någon av deltagarna önskar det, men vi hjälpas åt om språket ställer till.

This Week in Plasma: lots and lots of bug-fixing for Plasma 6.5!
Welcome to a new issue of This Week in Plasma!
This week the Plasma team really really really focused on bug fixing and UI polishing, in preparation for the Plasma 6.5 release next month.
So far relatively few regressions have been reported, so either we’ve done a really good job of fixing them or keeping Plasma generally stable, or people aren’t reporting enough bugs!
While I’d love to believe it’s the former, let me take the opportunity to request more bug reports! KDE Linux is a great way to test, and other distros also have their own package repos you can switch to for beta releases. Give it a try! I’d say the Plasma 6.5 beta is really quite good. And as a reminder, here’s what’s in it.
Notable New Features
Plasma 6.5.0
The colorblindness correction filters now feature a grayscale mode you can use to desaturate all the colors on the screen, or remove them entirely! (Leah B. link)
Notable UI Improvements
Plasma 6.5.0
On System Settings’ Bluetooth page, the on/off switch now remains where it is after you interact with it. (Berk Elyesa Yıldırım, link)
When setting up a slideshow wallpaper, you can now click on the the entire grid item for each image to toggle it on or off, instead of having to aim for the tiny checkbox in the corner. (David Redondo, link)
Everything that lets you quickly see what’s on the desktop now consistently uses the term “Peek at desktop”. (Nate Graham, link)
When your system is out of inotify watches, and you fix it by clicking on the “fix it” button on the notification alerting you to the issue, the notification now goes away after it’s fixed. (Kai Uwe Broulik, link)
The Show Activity Manager widget now has a sane upper icon size limit, so it’s no longer ridiculously massive on really thick panels. (Niccolò Venerandi, link)
Plasma 6.6.0
Improved the way cross-app activation happens on Wayland in a variety of ways. (Vlad Zahorodnii, link 1, link 2, link 3, link 4)
Improved the UI of the Colorblindness Correction feature on System Settings’ Accessibility page. (Nate Graham, link)
Notable Bug Fixes
Plasma 6.4.6
Fixed a bug that could allow apps or websites that send notifications to make Plasma display the contents of file:///dev/urandom or other technical files, which could make the system bog down or crash. (David Edmundson, link)
Fixed a case where System Monitor could crash when you tried to save a customized graph as a new preset. (David Redondo, link)
Fixed two cases where the KMenuEdit app could crash: one when sorting items, and another when given a malformed .desktop file. (Nicolas Fella, link 1 and link 2)
Manually saving your session no longer breaks the Shut Down, Restart, and Log Out buttons in the Kickoff Application Launcher and other similar launcher menus. (David Edmundson, link)
Fixed a recent regression that made some maps apps not appear as options on System Settings’ Default Applications page. (Sune Vuorela, link)
Fixed a bug that broke the mouse button re-binding UI. (David Redondo, link)
Adding or removing images on System Settings’ Wallpapers page now activates the “Apply” button as expected. (Nate Graham, link)
Fixed a bug that made the Expand buttons on System Settings’ Shortcuts page sometimes get pushed partially out of view. (Nate Graham, link)
Plasma 6.5.0
Fixed a case where the session manager could crash when there were multiple logout notifications. (David Edmundson, link)
Certain misbehaving screens no longer trigger an infinite loop of connections and disconnection sounds after they go to sleep. (Akseli Lahtinen, link)
Fixed a bug that could cause RDP clients to show a black screen when connected to Plasma’s build in RDP server. (Jaxk Xu, link)
Fixed a bug that sometimes made it impossible to turn off the screen reader via its Meta+Alt+S keyboard shortcut (Sebastian Sauer, link)
Fixed multiple issues related to dragging widgets and rubberband selection rectangles on the desktop and in standalone Folder View widgets. (Akseli Lahtinen and Marco Martin, link 1 and link 2)
Fixed bug that made press-and-hold with a touchscreen to right-click unreliable on the Kickoff Application Launcher. (Marco Martin, link)
Fixed a few visual glitches in the panel configuration dialog when using the system with a right-to-left language like Arabic or Hebrew. (Niccolò Venerandi, link)
While in Plasma’s edit mode, dragging System Monitor widgets from the desktop to the panel or back no longer forces them into “Text Only” mode. (Marco Martin, link 1 and link 2)
The wallpaper grid now displays the wallpaper previews in the correct alphabetical order based on the visible title you can see. Previously it was sorting based on the filename, not the user-visible title. (David Redondo, link)
The weather widget now shows an apropriate icon for the “Hazy” weather condition from weather stations using the BBC weather provider. (Ismael Asensio, link)
Fixed a bug that could cause the activity and wallpaper switching shortcuts to be mis-named on System Settings’ Shortcuts page. (Nicolas Fella, link 1 and link 2)
Fixed a bug that could sometimes cause some misbehaving apps to end up with no app icon on their windows’ titlebars. (David Redondo, link)
Other bug information of note:
- 2 very high priority Plasma bugs (same as last week). Current list of bugs
- 27 15-minute Plasma bugs (same as last week). Current list of bugs
…But this is because we fixed a bunch and then added more as the result of bug triage! A Plasma developer’s work is never done.
Notable in Performance & Technical
Plasma 6.5.0
Dragging widgets on top of other widgets no longer bogs down the system with an amount of lag proportional to the refresh rate of the mouse used to drag it. Now it’s always nice and smooth. (Akseli Lahtinen, link)

Humanoid robots are only hyped because GenAI is hyped and GenAI is hyped because Altman and his other conmen are scamming the World out of resources on the promise of AGI because "Scale Is All You Need", a very convenient trope for VCs as they have no other idea beside dominating a market by scaling.
So... if the GenAI bubble does pop (and the HBR article on workslop lets me hope that it has started) then I don't see how humanoid robot would not. I also imagine manufacturers are less prone to hype because they have been robots already for decades. Even some services like hospitals do have robots for cleaning, delivery, etc. Sure they don't look humanoid but it's still a baseline to compare with in terms of performance and price.
Edit: if you want to explore the OSHW FLOSS side of this check github.com/huggingface/lerobot but my own understanding is that there is no radical progress. Sure we might be inching away at "solving" robotics but nothing changed except few components getting a bit cheaper thanks to smartphone then in turn drone or obviously GPUs.
Edit2: if you don't feel like reading the article just watch the 2 videos by Roland Johansson on normal hand vs hand without touch, it's fascinating.

What to Look for Before Buying a Small Business
Some business owners sell their business. The buyer who is planning to buy it must check some necessary details and can purchase it.
Starting your own business from scratch is different than buying an already running business and altering it. Buying a business involves plenty of processes, and everything should be done carefully. Before buying a small business, certain factors must be considered. All those factors are listed in this blog along with some special requirements. Continue to read and explore more.
Key Factors Behind Selling a Business
The reasons behind a business owner selling a business are numerous. Some of the factors include,
- The business owner might plan to retire.
- The funds from selling this business could help kick-start another idea.
- When the business sales go in a decreasing pattern.
- Sometimes, the business owner may shift to another location.
- If any disagreements occur with the business partners, the business owner may sell the business.
It is not certain that the business owners will sell their business in good condition. There will be some flaws and problems. Therefore, if you plan to purchase the business, consider the following factors, which are listed below.
1. No Undisclosed Issues: If the business has any undisclosed issues, then they must be resolved properly. When a buyer shows interest in buying the business, the first factor to be checked is the issues. If they buy the business with issues, then it may create a loss for them.
2. Business with Solid Brand Recognition: Some buyers check whether the business has a solid brand recognition in the market. Purchasing a well-recognized business minimizes future workload and marketing efforts.
3. Business is a Profitable One: The business that is going to be purchased by the buyers must not incur a loss. It must be a profitable one. Buying a business that is on a losing path is not a good decision because bringing it to a profitable path from loss is a strenuous process and takes a long time.
4. Build a Transferable Business: In some types of business, a large client base will be there for the business owner. If the business owner changes, then the clients will regret that business. So, while choosing a business to buy, check whether it is transferable or not.
5. Business Condition: Another factor to be considered before buying is whether the products used in the business are in good condition, whether the inventories can be used again, are the staff working there are skilled, etc. Also, the financial reports and sales patterns of the business must be identified. These are the factors that you must check in a business if you’re going to buy it.
The step-by-step process followed while purchasing the business is as follows.
- Initially, the buyer must do self-analysis. Whether they have the interest to run that business, the financial availability to make investments, etc.
- The next step is analyzing the business processes and their scope in the business market. It helps in understanding the sales performance, challenges in it, etc.
- Further, have a conversation with experts and accountants about the purchasing process and make the right decision.
- After taking effective decisions, approach the seller and check the condition of the business. Its work process, employee status, inventory condition, cash flow statements, etc., are the factors that must be checked.
- If a decision is taken to buy the business, negotiate with the seller and check for any legal issues. If everything is okay, then the business can be purchased.
Purchasing a business and developing it is a good choice, but its success depends on the already existing structure of the business. So, if you’re opting for purchasing a business, research clearly and choose wisely.

How to Play and Enjoy Slither io !
If you’ve ever found yourself with a few minutes to spare and a craving for something fun, fast, and slightly chaotic, you might want to check out Slither io. It’s a browser-based multiplayer game that combines the nostalgia of the classic Snake game with real-time online competition. Whether you’re just curious or hoping to grow the biggest snake on the board, this article will walk you through what the game is, how it works, and a few helpful tips to make your experience smoother.
Gameplay Overview
At its core, Slither io is simple: you control a snake, and your goal is to eat glowing pellets (orbs) to grow as long as possible while avoiding other players. All the snakes are controlled by other people playing at the same time, which means you’re not just trying to beat the game—you’re trying to outlast real players.
Controls
You can play on a computer or mobile device. On a computer, you use the mouse to steer your snake and the left-click to boost. On a touchscreen device, just drag your finger to control direction and double-tap to speed up. Boosting makes your snake move faster, but it costs some of your snake’s length.
The Objective
There is no “end” to the game. You keep going until your snake crashes into another player or the wall, at which point your snake explodes into glowing orbs, and it’s game over. Other players can then eat the orbs you leave behind. The goal is to grow as large as you can, earn a high score, and maybe even make it to the leaderboard.
How to Get Started
1. Visit the Website
To play, go to Slither io. No download or account is needed. Just choose a nickname, customize your snake’s appearance if you want, and click “Play.”
2. Customize Your Snake
You can choose different skins, colors, and designs. It’s a fun way to make your snake stand out in the crowd. Some players even use their national flags or team colors.
3. Start Small, Think Big
When your snake first spawns, it’s tiny. This can be frustrating at first, but the early game is about being cautious and collecting smaller orbs. It’s okay to hang around the edges of the map and avoid larger snakes until you’ve grown a bit.
Tips for Playing Better
While Slither io is easy to pick up, getting good at it takes a bit of practice and patience. Here are some beginner-friendly tips:
1. Play defensively at first
Don’t chase after other players too aggressively when you're small. Focus on collecting scattered orbs and staying away from danger zones, especially near the center of the map where action is constant.
2. Use boost wisely
Boosting is useful for escaping tricky situations or stealing orbs after a big snake dies, but overusing it will shorten your snake. Use it strategically.
3. Circle smaller snakes
Once you're long enough, you can trap smaller snakes by curling around them. Just be careful not to trap yourself in the process. It’s one of the most satisfying tactics in the game.
4. Follow the giants
Big snakes often cause chaos. When they die, they leave behind a feast of orbs. If you hang around safely near them, you might be able to swoop in and grab some of the leftovers.
5. Watch out for sudden movements
Other players can boost into your path and take you out instantly. Stay alert, especially when you're near a crowd.
6. Use the minimap
There's a small radar/map in the corner that shows your position. The center is usually the busiest area, while the edges are quieter and safer for beginners.
Why People Keep Coming Back
Part of the charm of Slither io is how fast and unpredictable each round can be. A game can last 10 seconds or 30 minutes—it all depends on how careful (or lucky) you are. And because you’re playing with real people, every session feels fresh.
There’s also something oddly relaxing about guiding your snake through glowing trails of orbs, even if you’re not aiming for a top score. It’s a nice balance of competition and casual fun.
Plus, the fact that you can jump in and out without logging in or saving progress makes it perfect for short breaks, study pauses, or moments when you just need to switch off and do something light.
Final Thoughts
Slither io isn’t about fancy graphics or deep storytelling. It’s about simple, instant fun that anyone can enjoy. Whether you're looking to kill a few minutes or test your reflexes against strangers across the world, it’s a game worth trying.
Just remember: everyone starts small, and part of the fun is figuring out your own play style. Some players go slow and steady, others dive straight into the action. There’s no single right way to play.
So, next time you find yourself bored or just in need of a mental break, head over to Slither io and give it a shot. Who knows? Maybe you’ll make it onto the leaderboard—or at least have a good laugh trying.
Have you played Slither io? Got any tricks or funny moments to share? Drop them in the comments—this game is even better when you learn from other players!

Bondi fires a third federal prosecutor in Miami office, linked to anti-Trump posts
But Rosenzweig — considered to be among the rising prosecutors in the office — wasn’t fired because he had been associated with the criminal investigations of Trump by the Justice Department’s special counsel during the prior Biden administration. That was why two other respected federal prosecutors in the Miami office were abruptly terminated this year.
Rather, Rosenzweig was fired, according to multiple sources, because of the negative things he said about Trump on a social media blog before he became a federal prosecutor in Miami. When he was working for the prominent law firm Kobre & Kim in Washington during Trump’s first term, Rosenzweig posted criticisms of the president starting in 2017 — posts that were recently brought to the attention of the Justice Department.
Republican Arizona lawmaker makes post calling for execution of Democratic congresswoman
An Arizona Republican state representative who has expressed support for January 6 insurrectionists on Wednesday called for a Democratic congresswoman to be executed, as a response to a video clip.
The comment on X by state representative John Gillette of Kingman, Arizona, first reported by the Arizona Mirror, was a reaction to a short clip drawn from a YouTube video in March by US representative Pramila Jayapal, a longtime Democratic congresswoman representing Washington state, entitled “The Resistance Lab.” In the video, Jayapal discusses preparations for street protests against the Trump administration.
“Until people like this, that advocate for the overthrow of the American government are tried, convicted and hanged … it will continue,” he posted.
Nothing in either the clip or the longer video actually suggests Jayapal is advocating for the overthrow of the US government. The video carries explicit calls for non-violent protest and discussed with alarm a rise in political violence in the US.

Mass Walkout Leaves UN General Assembly Chamber Mostly 'Empty' for Netanyahu Speech
nitter.net/BarakRavid/status/1…
The protests against Netanyahu came as Israel is causing a famine in Gaza with its near-total blockade on humanitarian aid, which has killed hundreds of Palestinian civilians. Israel has launched a full invasion of Gaza, and its right-wing government has explicitly said that it plans on expelling all Palestinians who are still living in the exclave. The Israel Defense Forces’ assault has killed more than 65,000 Palestinians since October 2023, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
Israel has become increasingly isolated on the international stage in recent weeks, as the governments of France, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia have all formally recognized Palestine as an independent state.
