The incident follows another ~~antisemitic attack~~ in Paris last week, when a disturbing scene was discovered outside the Israeli airline's offices: the office sign had been vandalized with hate-filled graffiti, including the phrase "EL AL GENOCIDE AIRLINE," red paint had been splashed on the walls and door, and pro-Palestinian graffiti had been sprayed on the wall. The employees had not yet arrived at the office at the time.

The usage of Linux and Open Source (a study on the possible usage of Linux and Open Source on the PC within the Commission environment)
cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/34545365
From December 2002 to April 2005, a pilot was conducted in DG INFSO to evaluate the use of Linux based PC's in the Commission environment, which involved a selected group of users. This group consisted of about 40 persons with a wide diversity of functional profiles (project officer, secretary, financial officer, deputy director general, assistant, etc. …). The scope of the pilot was the testing of the interoperability between the Linux and the Windows environment in terms of electronic file and printer sharing, text processing, spreadsheet, presentation, email / groupware software, other software and support facilities, this specifically in the EC environment.In co-operation with the Informatics Directorate, a reference configuration was set-up on a number of PC's based on the Linux Operating System and other Open Software products.
Main conclusions are:
- The integration of the Linux based clients in the Windows NT environment did not cause any problems. Integration in the newer NET1 environment (based on the Active Directory) was also successful without major problems. Electronic files and printers both from the Linux environment and the Windows environment could be shared with each other.
- Compatibility tests of the Open Source text processing, spreadsheet, and presentation software were generally satisfactory. Conversion of complex documents showed to be sometimes problematic because of the differences between MS Word and OpenOffice and some problems were encountered with the proprietary fonts of Microsoft. On the other hand, some features were available in OpenOffice that did not exist in the Microsoft Office suite. Further improvements are to be expected now that Microsoft is supporting XML based file formats. Some problems relating to important Commission-specific extensions to MS Word, such as the ones used for the preparation of official notes and legal documents, were identified. A redevelopment of these extensions would be required to solve this issue.
- At the level of the email most of the features are available and no major problems were encountered. However, the shared mail and calendar resources functionality caused several problems at the level of the interoperability with the present Commission email infrastructure. Interoperability tests with the future Commission email infrastructure (foreseen for implementation in 2006) were positive and most of the problems were solved. Some problems relating to specific extensions used within the Commission (Email Archiving System) remained. The question can be raised if a totally new environment based on Open Source at Commission level could be envisaged. Several Open Source solutions are available with functionality comparable to Microsoft's email platform. Initiatives worthwhile mentioning are the development of Kroupware (funded by the German Administration), eGroupWare and OpenGroupware.
- Compatibility tests of Commission-wide applications were negative. Redevelopment of these types of applications as web applications will resolve the problems. The Commission environment would evolve to a more Windows-independent environment, if a strategy could be adopted on these lines. Within the present planning of DG DIGIT it isforeseen that the corporate applications under their responsibility will be redeveloped by 2008. This is already a realisation of a large part of that strategy. However, it is imperative that any web application should be developed in a browser independent way, which should be feasible to do. The browser independence is further emphasised by the commitment of the Commission to implement the first level of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines for the Europa and the Intracomm website.
- The Open Source world has proven to have the ability to adapt to new versions of the Microsoft software / environment. This was demonstrated with the changeover from the NT domain to the NET1 domain and with the changeover from the older versions of Office / Email to the newer versions. Sometimes there was a delay in the development of the adaptation depending on the magnitude of the differences. Also, sometimes certain useful features available in OpenSource world do not exist in the corresponding software in the Microsoft environment.
- The availability of third party software is not completely positive and is greatly depending on the market and profit analysis done by the corresponding software vendor. The question can again be raised if totally new software based on Open Source could not be envisaged. Most of the time Open Source solutions are available with functionality comparable to the original third party software.In general, the Linux platforms that were tested show a very fair level of usability and compatibility. An environment based on Linux is today technically feasible for limited groups with specific needs. Although there are many other factors that could play a role in the decision in favour of the implementation of an environment based on Linux, the present testing shows that is not possible to implement it at this moment in time on a large scale. Amongst the most blocking factors is the availability of Commission and local applications. The redevelopment of applications would be necessary to solve this problem. In any case, a migration of more than 25000 users is an entirely different project with different objectives, starting with a necessary cost/benefit analysis. The project of a general migration would need to be prepared and planned very carefully, in the hypothesis of a satisfactory OSS platform and a political and technical decision, in order to guarantee minimal disturbance to the users and a similar level of functionality.

I think it's implied that the predator did kill a lot of them, otherwise they wouldn't have the demon legend.
But predators also have a stricter moral code than humanity's big game / trophy / regular hunters, who mostly kill defenseless creatures. They won't kill anything unarmed, or who can't harm. And in predator 2 they refuse to kill a captured prey (danny glover) that successfully defended himself and killed one of their own, and even give him one of their trophies out of respect.
Overall tho hunting is an activity mostly done by bored bourgeois parasites... the villian of the short story the most dangerous game is a russian tsarist aristocrat who hunts people for fun.

Its also shown in later movies that various other predators will hurt weak creatures if it serves their purposes. The original predator (dubbed "The Jungle Hunter" by the fandom, I guess) seems to have been one of the more "moral" individual Yujata.

androidastica sparizione delle icone dei ragni (glitch per cui le scorciatoie web spariscono dal launcher)
Tutte le volte che penso, presumo, ritengo di odiare tremendamente Android… puntualmente scopro che il mio odio è sempre più basso di quello che davvero dovrebbe essere per questo sistema oberativo letteralmente bacato, infestato dai problemi, introgolato di merda che porca puttana… SPARISCONO LE FOTTUTE SCORCIATOIE SULLA SCHERMATA HOME!!! Una roba così pestifera non è mai successa nemmeno su Windows, o qualunque altro sistema che notoriamente non funziona mai bene… Sarà forse questo, la sparizione delle icone, che i fanboy segretamente intendono quando dicono che “su Android tutto è possibile“…??? 😫Più di preciso, qualche settimana fa mi stavo (ri)lamentando di questo problema per cui a volte, a caso, quando gli piace a lui, stranamente non sempre (insomma, non è manco un bug ricreabile al 100%), dopo un riavvio del sistema mi spariscono tutte (zio totalitario…) le scorciatoie ai siti, sia normali che PWA, appunto dalla home… ma mai nessuna scorciatoia ad app native. A quel punto però avevo preso atto della merdata, avevo imputato immediatamente tutta la colpa al launcher di MIUI (dato che non ricordo questa cosa succedere su altri dispositivi o altre ROM), e avevo quindi installato Lawnchair (usando il terminale per superare il blocco di cambio launcher), e perdendo così 20 crediti sociali… 💔
Peccato che stamattina è successo di nuovo, dopo che ho dovuto riavviare il telefono perché dal nulla mentre lo stavo usando aveva preso a glitcharsi, con la app che avevo in foreground che era crashata e la home che mostrava una schermata nera anziché caricare il launcher… e quindi, sotto sotto, la colpa non era di Xiaomi, e quindi ancora una volta la deduzione dei miei crediti sociali si rivela giustificata. In effetti, cercando un po’ meglio dell’altra volta, ho trovato sul web delle segnalazioni di questo preciso glitch… e in effetti la cosa non pare legata per niente a Xiaomi: . 🙀
Mi verrebbe da pensare che non ho mai notato questa rogna nel lontano passato solo perché non usavo così tante webapp… ma sul tablet attualmente ho più o meno la stessa quantità di scorciatoie del telefono, eppure rimozioni coatte lì non ne ho ancora (ancora…) mai (mai!!!) viste. Comunque sia, un fatto rimane, e cioè che questo è un fottuto problema, perché le scorciatoie alle webapp MI SERVONO! E il perché lo dice il nome stesso: sono short-cuts, servono a tagliare corto, cosa che è specialmente necessaria su un dispositivo che già è laggante… ma poi perché le webapp vanno per forza installate sulla home per fungere da PWA, quindi avere la loro scheda nella schermata multitasking e non avere l’interfaccia del browser in alto a rubare spazio. 😵La cosa più strana è che, a questo punto, non riesco a comprendere a cosa sia quindi dovuto il problema. Tolti launcher e ROM, penserei al browser stesso (o parte di esso, in caso di fork), nonostante una app Android di per sé non abbia alcun modo di far sparire le sue stesse scorciatoie… ma, nonostante buona parte delle volte le icone che spariscono sono quelle di Mulch (Chromium), sono abbastanza sicura di aver visto anche quelle poche di Firefox che ancora avevo in giro venir spedite al regno delle ombre, una (1) volta quella settimana passata in cui cringiavo con i launcher e mi si era inspiegabilmente resettato il predefinito da Lawnchair a quello MIUI dopo un riavvio. La stringa di Intent per le scorciatoie di Chromium è perfettamente identica a qualsiasi di deep link per qualsiasi app nativa, se non per il fatto che il nome interno è un UUID anziché il nome della Activity ripetuto, quindi perché cazzo spariscono??? 🌋
Un telefono con la mela stampata dietro, ovviamente, non posso permettermelo, nonostante (almeno, penso, poi che la mia aura sia capace di far spuntare sempre bug in tutto è un’altra storia) lì le icone non prendano a fottutamente sparire da un momento all’altro dalla home… quindi, che cazzo si fa??? Non lo so. A parte magari provare Edge (sigh) anche sul telefono oltre che sul tablet, perché hanno cambiato talmente tanta roba in quel robo che forse il bug non c’è… potrei solo rispolverare l’idea del browserocto, quel browserino minimale fatto principalmente per le webapp che non fu mai completato… Ma comunque CHE PALLE, sia mai che le cose funzionino! 😭

📊 Solo il 6% della plastica è usato per l’abbigliamento. Perché la moda inquina così tanto?
Uno studio dell’UNDP rivela che solo il 6% della plastica globale finisce nell’abbigliamento, contro il 31% degli imballaggi o il 16% dell’edilizia. Eppure, la moda è spesso considerata uno dei settori più inquinanti al mondo. Come mai?
🔍 Cosa non dice quel 6%?
I dati dell’UNDP misurano solo la plastica come materia prima, ma l’impatto della moda va ben oltre:
• 🌊 Inquinamento idrico: Il 20% dell’inquinamento industriale delle acque viene dalle tinture tessili (Banca Mondiale). I tessuti sintetici (es. poliestere) rilasciano microplastiche, responsabili del 35% dell’inquinamento da microplastiche negli oceani (IUCN).
• ☁️ Emissioni : La moda produce 4-10% delle emissioni globali di CO₂ (più di aerei e navi insieme, UNEP).
• 🗑️ Rifiuti : Ogni secondo, un camion di vestiti finisce in discarica o viene bruciato (Ellen MacArthur Foundation). Meno dell’1% viene riciclato.
• 💧 Risorse: Una maglietta di cotone richiede 2.700 litri d’acqua (WWF).
🏆 La moda è davvero il 2° settore più inquinante?
Dipende dagli studi:
• 1° posto: Petrolio e gas.
• 2° posto: Alcuni includono la moda per l’insieme di danni (acqua, CO₂, rifiuti). Altri la piazzano dopo agricoltura o allevamento.✅ Conclusione
Quel 6% è solo la punta dell’iceberg. L’inquinamento della moda deriva dall’intero ciclo: produzione, uso, smaltimento. Serve un cambio sistemico, non solo sostituire il poliestere.
Cosa fare?
• Sostenere la moda circolare.
• Comprare meno, indossare di più.
• Pretendere trasparenza dai brand.📌 Fonte: UNDP | Ellen MacArthur Foundation
