Xi Jinping says world faces ‘peace or war’, as Putin and Kim join him for military parade
Xi Jinping said the world was facing a choice between peace or war as he held China’s largest-ever military parade, joined by Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un in a show of defiance to the west.Putin and Kim, the authoritarian leaders of Russia and North Korea, were among dozens of world leaders who attended the parade, a massive display of military hardware and personnel, orchestrated to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of the second world war, which China calls the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
“Today, humanity is again faced with the choice of peace or war, dialogue or confrontation, win-win or zero-sum,” Xi told the crowd of more than 50,000 spectators, adding that the Chinese people “firmly stand on the right side of history”.

Israeli drones drop grenades near UN peacekeepers in Lebanon in what UNIFIL calls a serious attack
The peacekeeping force known as UNIFIL described the Tuesday morning incident as “one of the most serious attacks on UNIFIL personnel and assets” since the cessation of hostilities in November that ended the 14-month Israel-Hezbollah war.
UNIFIL said Israeli drones dropped four grenades close to the peacekeepers, who were working to clear roadblocks that hindered access to a U.N. position along the border line. One grenade hit within 20 meters (yards) and three others within approximately 100 meters of U.N. personnel and vehicles, it said, adding the drones were observed returning toward Israel. No one was hurt in the attack.
UNIFIL said the Israeli military had been informed in advance of the peacekeeping force’s road clearance work in the area, southeast of the village of Marwahin less than a kilometer (mile) from the border line.

Vatican puts Pope Francis' ecological preaching into practice with vocational farm center
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy (AP) — The Vatican is inaugurating an ambitious educational center inspired by Pope Francis’ ecological legacy, a 55-acre utopian experiment in sustainable farming, vocational training and environmental schooling for kids and CEOs alike on the grounds of the papal estate on Lake Albano.
Pope Leo XIV, who has strongly reaffirmed Francis’ focus on the need to care for God’s creation, will formally open the center Friday, returning to the grounds where he spent his first papal summer. He’ll tour the lush gardens, vineyards and farm of Castel Gandolfo and celebrate a liturgy for the staff who have been working since 2022 to turn Francis’ ecological preaching into practice.
Officials on Tuesday gave a sneak peek tour of the project’s heart: A huge greenhouse in the same curved, embracing shape as the colonnade of St. Peter’s Square that faces a 10-room educational facility and dining hall. Once it’s up and running, visiting groups can come for an afternoon school trip to learn about organic farming, or a weekslong course on regenerative agriculture.
The project was inspired by Francis’ 2015 encyclical “Laudato Si” (Praised Be), which cast care for the planet as an urgent and existential moral concern that was inherently tied to questions of human dignity and justice, especially for the poor.
In the 10 years since, a grassroots movement has taken root in the church to implement its holistic message via workshops, conferences and now most tangibly, the educational center named for the encyclical, Borgo Laudato Si.
The center aims to accomplish many of the goals of the environmental cause. Solar panels will provide all the power the facility needs, plastics will be banned and recycling and composting systems will be used to reach zero-waste. Officials say water will be conserved and maximized via “smart irrigation” systems that use Artificial Intelligence to determine plants needs, along with rainwater harvesting and the installation of wastewater treatment and reuse systems.

The difference is that tourists are not a somehow disadvantaged group. My livelihood isn't endangered because I can't go to a tourist spot in Spain somewhere without being heckled (though, when I actually was in Spain, everyone was nice, but Madrid isn't that much of a tourist spot compared to others).
Also, in some cases, it isn't "the rich" – I too love to point out the issues they cause – but sometimes, it's just ordinary people hoping to make a quick buck buying up property to rent it out on AirBNB. Yes, it's also rich foreigners getting property everywhere for themselves, which is a problem. But "the rich" don't bother with AirBNB, they just build hotels, and these normally don't compete with normal housing.
This is not a tourist problem, never has been.
Tourists are one source of the demand that drives up the rents. So yeah, they're part of the problem.
A valid point. But how are you going to decrease the number of tourists?

It get worse, and the model weights is a bit inaccurate with the Sept update:
The only open source code we have found is for the Lumo mobile and web apps.

Prominent UK women tell rightwingers: stop linking immigration to sexual abuse

"We reject the far right’s racist lies about ‘protecting’ women and girls. They are not defenders of women – they exploit violence against women to fuel hate and division,” the letter says.
The open letter, titled Women Against the Far Right, follows a surge in protests outside accommodation housing asylum seekers and far-right attempts to exploit a number of cases of alleged sexual crimes involving asylum seekers.

World’s biggest iceberg breaks up after 40 years: ‘Most don’t make it this far’
Nearly 40 years after breaking off Antarctica, a colossal iceberg ranked among the oldest and largest ever recorded is finally crumbling apart in warmer waters, and could disappear within weeks.Earlier this year, the “megaberg” known as A23a weighed a little under a trillion tonnes and was more than twice the size of Greater London, a behemoth unrivalled at the time.
The gigantic slab of frozen freshwater was so large it even briefly threatened penguin feeding grounds on a remote island in the South Atlantic Ocean, but ended up moving on.
It is now less than half its original size, but still a hefty 1,770 sq km (683 sq miles) and 60km (37 miles) at its widest point, according to AFP analysis of satellite images by the EU Earth observation monitor Copernicus.

U.S. military strikes drug-carrying boat from Venezuela, Rubio says
The U.S. military on Tuesday struck a drug boat from Venezuela, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, as tensions spike between the Trump administration and the Venezuelan government.Joe Walsh (CBS News)
like this
I note the details of this incident are sparse, per the article, yet CBS utterly fails to use the word alleged at all. This is a 'drug boat' not an 'alleged drug boat,' nor a 'boat allegedly smuggling drugs.' Did they even ask what proof the military had before blowing up this 'drug boat?'
Is the USA now blowing up any boat at sea that they feel is a drug boat? Isn't the norm to have the Coast Guard intercept such boats board them, gather evidence, and make arrests? I guess this is the new war on drugs.
like this
Yes. These are normally handled by the Coast Guard. There's a reason the Coast Guard vessels are armed. They can more than handle anything a cartel drug boat is carrying. They're heavily armed enough that most intercepted vessels surrender without a fight. Actually taking fire is extraordinarily rare.
There is absolutely zero reason to waste US Navy vessels on this. It appears Trump just blew up a random boat that could have easily been intercepted. Even assuming it is a drug boat, this attack is completely detrimental to fighting the drug trade. If you intercept the vessel, you can interrogate the crew, gather evidence from the vessel, and help crack the cartel network they are a part of. But you can't do any of that with a corpse-filled wreck on the bottom of the ocean.
Yep. I'm pretty sure that Trump is on a full on murderous power trip. He likes being able to order people killed. Remember when he took out a full page ad demanding that the Central Park 5 be executed for their crimes? The ad said, in part:
Mayor Koch has stated that hate and rancor should be removed from our hearts. I do not think so. I want to hate these muggers and murderers.. They should be forced to suffer and, when they kill, they should be executed for their crimes. They must serve as examples so that others will think long and hard before committing a crime or an act of violence. Yes, Mayor Koch, I want to hate these murderers and I always will. I am not looking to psychoanalyze or understand them, I am looking to punish them. If the punishment is strong, the attacks on innocent people will stop. - Donald Trump
They were innocent, by the way.
It wasn't until 2002 that the five men were exonerated after convicted rapist and murderer Matias Reyes confessed to the crime. Reyes' DNA matched the sample found on Meili.
Here is another example of his love of killing people. Did you know that since 1976, only 16 people have been executed by the federal government. Two in 2001. One in 2003. The other 13 were executed in 2020 and 2021 when then President Trump learned he could expedite their executions.
Expect a lot more blood from this man now that he can and is ordering the military to wantonly spill it.
To be more detailed, The firearms serve another purpose than just returning fire in a gunfight. The coast gaurd often disable the engines of boats they're pursuing by shooting the engine.
Course, these are more just guidelines. How the coast gaurd actually conducts itself is likely adapted to the situation.

If so, surely this is papering over the challenge. A real solution will present all the information used to operate a "VPP" to the entire grid, and allow all the available resources to be managed by the grid.

Israel calls up 60,000 reservists for Gaza City occupation
Israel has begun mobilizing some 60,000 reservists to take part in its planned occupation of Gaza City, the army confirmed Tuesday, signaling a major escalation in the genocidal war now in its 23rd month, Anadolu reports.
The military said the reservists will be issued weapons, personal gear and full tactical equipment, with units undergoing drills in urban and open terrain combat “to boost readiness for upcoming missions.”
Israeli daily Maariv said the mobilization would see reservists undergo three to four days of training before some are reassigned to replace regular troops stationed on the northern front.
The step follows Friday’s declaration of Gaza City as a “dangerous combat zone,” accompanied by heavy bombardment and demolitions that have already caused mass civilian casualties and widespread destruction. Gaza’s Government Media Office has accused the army of deploying explosive-laden robots and adopting a “scorched earth” strategy.

They clearly aren't Nazis, because Nazis were not and are not some generic evil, but a specific one. So never.
People only want to call them Nazis as a lazy shorthand for the ultimate evil, and because of the painful irony. Neither of these are good reasons.
they are genocidal monsters, doing nazi like things with nazi rhetoric and the only difference is the lack of a german language.
please.
they’re fucking nazis.
the only difference is the lack of a german language.
And the lack of anti-semitism
And the boundedness of their expansionism
And many other differences.
Expand your fucking vocabulary, rather than reaching for the only genocidal analogue you can think of. There has been more than one genocide in history, and you do dishonour to the victims of any one by using its name to describe something different.
They are GENOCIDING SEMITIC PEOPLE.
They want to remove Gaza and sell homes to other zionists.
Stop. just … grow the fuck up. It’s almost like you’re either defending zionists or nazis, I can’t tell which. Done with you.
There are TONS of genocides happening today. Not all are by nazis. I never said that. Two things can be true at once… and zionism’s growth and foothold on the semitic people of Palestine is a ww1/ww2 era invention. You know. When those silly nazis you seem to think don’t exist seemed to crop up.
I am defending the truth, and you're too committed to your untruth (whether mistake or lie) to accept that someone can do that while otherwise sharing your beliefs.
They are GENOCIDING SEMITIC PEOPLE.
"Semitic people" is not a category that is used any more; it could refer to "speakers of Semitic languages" but is completely obsolete for referring to ethnicity. And besides, Zionism, or the current Israeli government's version of it, is not murdering Palestinians because they belong to the group of people once referred to as "Semitic" because that would include all Arabs and all Jews as well as several other people. Genociding people who belong to a certain category doesn't mean you're anti- that category. For a trivial example, they are genociding human beings - does that mean they are anti-human? Obviously not.
So, if anti-semitism does not refer to hatred for the entire group of "Semitic people", what does it refer to? Well, it has some history being used more or less in the way you apparently believe it still is used, but in 1879 a chap called Wilhelm Marr wrote a pamphlet in which he used Semitismus interchangeably with Judentum, and Antisemitismus as a synonym for Judenhaß - Jew-hatred. That is what it has meant since.
There is only one reason I can think of beyond blinkered stubbornness that you could possibly want to associate the Nazis and antisemitism with the Israeli government, and that is out of some pathetic sense of irony, that it is somehow poetic that the Jews have become what befell them in the early 20th century. That is poetic, but poetry isn't truth, and disregarding the suffering of Jews at the hands of the real Nazis by calling what Israel now commits "Nazism" belies a disregard for Jews as a whole which is at best distasteful and at worst abhorrent.
You are letting yourself speak in a prejudiced way because of your opposition to the genocide that Israel is carrying out. How can you say "grow up" when you let that happen? No population deserves to be murdered the way Israel is murdering Palestinians - but no population deserves to have its past suffering mocked in the way you mock the suffering of Jews by calling Israel Nazis.
Please explain how Zionism is:
Prejudiced, discriminatory, hostile or opposed politically or religiously against ethnic or religious Jews or against Judaism
More information on usage can be found here but even if you want to use the non-standard sense of the word, it is:
* clearly wrong, because Zionism privileges one group it should be prejudiced against if it were anti-semitic in this sense; and
* clearly not the anti-semitism of the Nazis - so in no way does this make Zionism a form of Nazism, which is what we were talking about.
Zionism relies on "othering" Jews, making them feel unsafe in their home countries. They literally sterilized African Jews in the pursuit of their colonial vision.
As for Nazism, I'm not arguing there, it is technically different. But insofar as people think about Nazis as evil, it's a useful word in these conversations.
I agree it's useful to highlight the parallels between what the Israeli government does now and what was done to the Jewish population by the Nazis, but equating the two is not useful, is actively harmful, and extremely offensive. That's what I objected to above.
Zionism relies on “othering” Jews, making them feel unsafe in their home countries.
You can just as well say that all nationalist projects rely on "othering" in the sense of dividing whatever group is deemed "us" from everyone else. But of course, nobody normally calls this "othering", because it explicitly makes the in-group us not other than us. It would be wholly wrong to say that Zionist Jews characterise Jews as other than us, so I don't see how this is "othering" in any way that makes sense. They may other particular subgroups, but that is simply not a basis for describing the process as "othering Jews" because Jewishness is not the axis along which the division is being made; rather it is the axis of the subgroup. Scots might other the English, and this would not be a basis on which to accuse Scots of anti-British prejudice.
Othering alone is in any case not prejudice; it is merely something that often precedes it.
They literally sterilized African Jews in the pursuit of their colonial vision.
That would be a subgroup of Jews, not Jews as a whole. You wouldn't call it homophobia to bully Michael who happens to be gay if you don't bully other gay people.
Let’s ask the survivors of Gaza what they want to call Israel and just go with that.
And I hope there will be survivors.
