La conta ricomincia – Loro Piana (LVMH), presieduta da Antoine Arnault, è ora sotto amministrazione giudiziaria per 1 anno. Motivo? Subappalti a ditte cinesi accusate di:

• Lavoratori senza permesso

• Paghe sotto il minimo

• Dormitori abusivi

• Turni estremi (notti/festivi, provati dai picchi elettrici)

1. È il **5° caso **dopo Armani, Dior, Valentino, Alviero Martini (indagini archiviate, ma gli abusi restano).
2. Il Corriere: "Loro Piana non ha mai verificato i subappaltatori né fatto audit reali".
3. Ironia: pochi mesi fa un protocollo anti-sfruttamento firmato da sindacati e big della moda.

🔍 La filiera a perdere (letteralmente)

Loro Piana → Evergreen (senza fabbriche) → Sor-Man → Clover Moda/Dai Meiying (officine cinesi). Risultato:

• Macchinari pericolosi senza formazione

• Zero controlli sanitari

• Profitti ↑, diritti ↓

Capitalismo 101: estrai valore, esternalizza i rischi.

🌍** Il punto (spoiler: non è solo Loro Piana)**

Il subappalto non è un bug, è una feature del lusso.

La domanda non è "chi è il prossimo", ma: quando si ammetterà che il problema è l’intero modello?

Yesterday, the schedule for the next EuroBSDCon, which will be held in Zagreb, Croatia, from 25 to 28 September 2025, was published.

Last year I attended EuroBSDCon and it was a fantastic experience. I enjoyed every single moment, and connecting with the people who conceive, develop, disseminate, and are passionate about *BSD and the open-source world was an unforgettable experience. I flooded the Venue with BSD Cafe stickers and attended some incredibly interesting presentations. I wrote about it in an article for the FreeBSD Journal, where I tried, as much as possible, to convey the positivity I felt at the event.

Such a positive experience pushed me, a few months later, to propose a talk for BSDCan as well – an incredible experience itself, which I will write about in more detail later.

Reading this year’s program, I see a problem that I also had to face last year and last month at BSDCan: there are so many interesting presentations that they will overlap. Fortunately, the video team will provide live streams and recordings of the individual talks, allowing us to watch the presentations even if delayed.

In Zagreb, Jeroen ( @h3artbl33d – admin of Exquisite.social) and I will present “Liberating the social web using *BSD” – a 90 minutes presentation where we will talk about our experiences with Exquisite and BSD Cafe – delving into both technical and human details – an incredible experience from both points of view.

I suggest taking a look at the program and, if possible, participating. I can assure you it’s definitely worth it.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Psychedelic Pill (2012)

Chi scrive non ha mancato di sottolineare quanto gli ultimi dischi di Neil Young sembrassero più urgenti che ispirati. Bene, con questo Psychedelic Pill – di nuovo in sella ai fidi Crazy Horse dopo il recente Americana – si rientra in carreggiata alla grande. E sapete di che razza di carreggiata stiamo parlando. Sommariamente, si tratta di otto pezzi più uno (la versione alternativa della title track) per quasi un'ora e mezza di caro vecchio country psych ad alto tasso d'elettricità. Ma in realtà in ballo c'è altro... sentireascoltare.com/recension…

Hello. On the link below, you can download a free early access alpha version of a 2D dodgeball video game, which is about learning or refreshing your memory on idioms. An idiom is a phrase or expression that largely or exclusively carries a figurative or non-literal meaning, rather than making any literal sense.

This version is free to play, but proceeds of the game sales will go to help me host more English speaking clubs and dodgeball events in Ukraine, to help people stay active and healthy in a fun way, and to help Ukrainians practice their English speaking skills.

I'm from the USA, but I was in Ukraine for a few months of this year, seven months in 2021 when I hosted a few English speaking clubs and dodgeball events, and a few months before, and I was glad to have the opportunity to help Ukrainian people in these different ways, even if it might only be something small. I have documents to live and work in the Netherlands which requires me to stay in their country at least six months per year, but I'm ready to return to Ukraine asap if the English game project is successful.

Today, we'll be showcasing a handful of cool builds from Secrets of the Atlas. This is just a brief overview, so if you want to learn more about any of them, check out the links to the creators!

First up, we have an Ice Crash Slayer created by Paint_Master, as part of their challenge to make a build with a limit of one Divine!

To do this, Paint Master has employed several low cost unique items to get the most bang for your buck, or crash for your chaos in this case.

The Frostbreath unique mace, corrupted with Fortify on Hit, deals double damage to chilled enemies. We have this equipped in our main hand while using Ice Crash of Cadence, which makes hits with our mainhand weapon deal even more damage.

The Bitterdream unique sceptre lets us support our Ice Crash with a whopping eight support gems, without having to shell out for a six-linked body armour.

The Heatshiver unique helmet provides a large amount of our cold damage as extra fire damage against enemies that are chilled, which we can comfortably apply with our heavily supported Ice Crash.

This build clears all but the most pinnacle content with a cool calm demeanor, without a chilling price tag.

Jungroan's Forbidden Rite of Soul Sacrifice Occultist

If you're a cat person, this next build is for you. Actually, it might not. This is frankly far too many cats.

Created by Jungroan, inspired by tech from the aptly named Devilcat - this Occultist uses Forbidden Rite of Soul Sacrifice, to spew an unholy amount of deadly space kitties. The Celestial Cat Skill Effect, makes the theme.

There's a few very important moving parts that require specific breakpoints in order for this build to function correctly, so we strongly recommend checking out Jungroan's video on this build if you'd like to consume the souls of your foes in a cosmic feline frenzy.

Mewfour's Crushing Fist Gladiator

If you're allergic to cats, you can just punch things. Actually, anyone can just punch things. The One Megafisto Man created by Mewfour does this better than most.

This character is built around Crushing Fist, a retaliation skill that activates on block. In order to use it, we first need to block consistently. Megafisto uses the Gladiator for its incredibly high effective chance to block attacks and spells.

Of course your character also needs to scale its damage somehow! Mewfour has taken the Impaler Keystone which lets our single punch apply a bunch of Impale stacks, in the off chance that our initial punch doesn't annihilate our enemies!

BaumisMagicalWorld's Scorching Ray Totem Hierophant

Our final build today is another one that makes great use of Mercenaries. This Scorching Ray Totem Hierophant is still possible to play without a Mercenary, but build creator BaumisMagicalWorld mentions that the addition of Mercenaries rounds out the build and plugs some of its holes.

Scorching Ray is great against single targets, but lacking in clear speed and crowd control effects. This is where the Mercenary comes in. Baumi suggests that any Mercenary with a strong area of effect can be used, but the Merc of choice in this case is a Flamehand.

Equipped with unique items that allow their fire damage to freeze and shock, our mercenary applies ailments and clears monsters while we can focus on taking out the tougher enemies.

This is a great showcase of how Mercenaries can be a powerful ally even when our build isn't specifically designed to buff the Merc's damage.

Thanks to all Exiles out there creating exciting and unique builds, and in particular those Exiles we've highlighted in this news post!

The 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.
