[Press release] Ben-Gvir Plans to Designate Global Sumud Flotilla Activists as “Terrorists”, Seize Boats (Global Sumud Flotilla, 2025-09-04)

>> ... the Global Sumud Flotilla strongly condemns the threats by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir in an attempt to intimidate our participants and falsely brand them as ‘terrorists.’ Such threats are not only baseless and unjust, but constitute a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and the Geneva Conventions.
>> Israel’s colonial-settler occupation has long weaponized such tactics and used them against the Palestinian people -criminalizing, brutalizing and dehumanizing them, as well as silencing peaceful protests and humanitarian solidarity with Palestinians - in a desperate attempt to suppress global calls for justice...

Today’s cassette is a mixtape packed with early Violent Femmes and Replacements tracks—pure punk energy.
I stumbled across this gem at a thrift shop, and of course I had to grab it. There’s just something about mixtapes—they’ve always felt more personal, more alive, than any official release.
And funny enough, someone on Lemmy recently asked if anyone still remembered these kinds of mixtapes. Well, I don’t just remember them—I’ve got the proof right here.

The video begins with a nighttime scene of a multi-story building, focusing on a balcony where two individuals are present. The balcony is illuminated by a red light, and the individuals are seen handling a firework or flare, which emits a bright orange flame. The background shows a building with a dark facade and a few windows, with some foliage visible at the bottom of the frame. The individuals appear to be engaged in an activity involving the firework, with one person holding it and the other observing. The scene develops as the firework's intensity increases, with the flame growing larger and more intense, eventually leading to a significant explosion. The firework's bright orange and red flames engulf the balcony area, and the individuals react to the situation, moving away from the source of the fire. The video concludes with the firework's flames diminishing, leaving the balcony area in a state of disarray, with the individuals no longer visible. The text "[@]smotrinetupi" is visible in the bottom left corner of the frames, indicating the source of the video.

"Publicly available government contracts show that Israel’s advertising bureau, which reports to the prime minister’s office, has since embarked on a mass advertising and public messaging effort to conceal the hunger crisis. The push includes the use of American influencers widely reported on last month. It also includes a high-dollar spending spree on paid advertising, yielding tens of millions for Google, YouTube, X, Meta, and other tech platforms.
“There is food in Gaza. Any other claim is a lie,” asserted a propaganda video published by Israel’s foreign ministry to Google’s YouTube video sharing platform in late August and viewed more than 6 million times. Much of the video’s reach results from an ad placed during an ongoing and previously unreported $45 million (NIS 150 million) advertising campaign initiated between Google and Netanyahu’s office in late June. The contract—which is with both YouTube and Google's advertising campaign management platform, Display & Video 360—explicitly characterizes the ad campaign as hasbara, a Hebrew word whose meaning is somewhere between public relations and propaganda.
Records show that the Israeli government similarly spent $3 million (NIS 10 million) for an advertising campaign with X. The French and Israeli advertising platform Outbrain/Teads is also set to receive roughly $2.1 million (NIS 7 million)."

Does anyone still remember "FURY 3" ? As one of the earliest titles for Windows 95, it was used extensively in Microsoft's advertising campaign for the system. The game is actually fairly simple and runs smoothly even within an 86Box VM!

I absolutely remember Fury³. It was sort of a followup to Terminal Velocity and a really fun game for its time. Though even then I hated the fact that your ship could never ever stop. Seemed really stupid when you're shooting at an unmoving target.
The game also had great music, though the surround effect was mostly just weird (didn't sound surroundy to me anyway.)
Actually, Terminal Velocity recently got a remake with ports to systems like the Switch. Now that was out of the blue!
