Tuesday's cold-blooded strike on a boat in the Caribbean that murdered 11 people has zero legal justification, but that's not the worst part. He's sending a message that a dictatorial POTUS has no limit"
So much of the admin’s obsessive targeting of this Maryland dad stems from it simply not being able to admit that his initial purging to the CECOT megaprison was totally wrongful: americasvoicecnn.substack.com/…
Kilmar Ábrego García got just one weekend with his family before ICE again detained him. His rearrest is also a reminder of the dangers that could face any one of us.

1. Is healing frightening? To many, yes. For accusation is a bar to love, and damaged bodies are accusers. They stand firmly in the way of trust and peace, proclaiming that the frail can have no trust and that the damaged have no grounds for peace. Who has been injured by his brother, and could love and trust him still? He has attacked and will attack again. Protect him not, because your damaged body shows that _you_ must be protected from him. To forgive may be an act of charity, but not his 1
due. ⁹He may be pitied for his guilt, but not exonerated. ¹⁰And if you forgive him his transgressions, you but add to all the guilt that he has really earned. 2. The unhealed cannot pardon. ²For they are the witnesses that pardon is unfair. ³They would retain the consequences of the guilt they overlook. ⁴Yet no one can forgive a sin that he believes is real. ⁵And what has consequences must be real, because what it has done is there to see. ⁶Forgiveness is not pity, which but seeks to pardon 2
what it thinks to be the truth. ⁷Good cannot _be_ returned for evil, for forgiveness does not first establish sin and then forgive it. ⁸Who can say and mean, “My brother, you have injured me, and yet, because I am the better of the two, I pardon you my hurt.” ⁹His pardon and your hurt cannot exist together. One denies the other and must make it false. 3. To witness sin and yet forgive it is a paradox that reason cannot see. For it maintains what has been done to you deserves no pardon. And by 3
giving it, you grant your brother mercy but retain the proof he is not really innocent. ⁴The sick remain accusers. ⁵They cannot forgive their brothers and themselves as well. ⁶For no one in whom true forgiveness rests can suffer. ⁷He holds not the proof of sin before his brother’s eyes. ⁸And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his own. ⁹Forgiveness cannot be for one and not the other. ¹⁰Who forgives is healed. ¹¹And in his healing 4
lies the proof that he has truly pardoned, and retains no trace of condemnation that he still would hold against himself or any living thing. 4. Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother and yourself. ²You must attest his sins have no effect on you to demonstrate they are not real. ³How else could he be guiltless? ⁴And how could his innocence be justified unless his sins have no effect to warrant guilt? ⁵Sins 5
are beyond forgiveness just because they would entail effects that cannot be undone and overlooked entirely. ⁶In their undoing lies the proof that they are merely errors. ⁷Let yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to your brother and yourself. 5. A broken body shows the mind has not been healed. ²A miracle of healing proves that separation is without effect. ³What you would prove to him you will believe. ⁴The power of witness comes from your belief. ⁵And 6
everything you say or do or think but testifies to what you teach to him. ⁶Your body can be means to teach that it has never suffered pain because of him. ⁷And in its healing can it offer him mute testimony of his innocence. ⁸It is this testimony that can speak with power greater than a thousand tongues. ⁹For here is his forgiveness proved to him. 6. A miracle can offer nothing less to him than it has given unto you. ²So does your healing show your mind is 7
healed, and has forgiven what he did not do. ³And so is he convinced his innocence was never lost, and healed along with you. ⁴Thus does the miracle undo all things the world attests can never be undone. ⁵And hopelessness and death must disappear before the ancient clarion call of life. ⁶This call has power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and guilt. ⁷The ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of the Son 8
unto His Own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world will ever hear. ⁸Brother, there is no death. ⁹And this you learn when you but wish to show your brother that you had no hurt of him. ¹⁰He thinks your blood is on his hands, and so he stands condemned. ¹¹Yet it is given you to show him, by your healing, that his guilt is but the fabric of a senseless dream. - A Course in Miracles (acim.org/acim/en/s/307#1:1-6:1… | T-27.II.1:1–6:11) 9

Oh, es scheint im Moment eine größere Bewegung von Diaspora* zu geben. Natürlich finde ich es toll, wenn sie zu Friendica oder einem anderen Projekt im Fediverse kommen. Auf mich wirkt es jedoch auch so, als könnte Netzwerk damit weiter ausbluten. Das wäre echt schade, weil diese Community etwas ganz besonders ist.
Ganz unabhängig davon: Allen ein herzliches Willkommen und denkt daran, mit Friendica bist du weiterhin mit all deinen Kontakten auf Diaspora* verbunden. Das Netzwerk lebt damit weiter. Deine Beiträge sind in beiden Welten zu lesen.
@Dieter Fröhling Ja, das stimmt. Auf Diaspora* ist noch sehr viel mehr miteinander. Hier musst du schauen, wem du folgst oder folgen lässt, damit die Timeline weiter einen angenehmen Eindruck vermittelt.
Die fehlende Unterstützung von AP. Damit hat man ständig das Gefühl, nur einen Bruchteil von dem Teil des Fediverse jenseits von Hubzilla und Friendica mizubekommen
Die technischen Hürden für Selfhosting sind enorm.
@Rainer "friendica" Sokoll Die Argumente, die angeführt wurden, weshalb sie AP nicht integrieren wollten, konnte ich nachvollziehen. Das sie keine Addon-Lösung geschaffen haben, wie das andere Projekte gemacht haben, finde ich schade.

I’ve probably said this before but when I started birding in 2016 or so, Loggerhead shrike was on the list of common birds in my area so I figured I’d see one pretty quickly. I didn’t know they were in decline largely due to habitat loss and it was maybe three years before I finally found one. And not on the mainland but on Limuw (Santa Cruz island). That’s still my most reliable spot to see them. I don’t have any trips planned (waiting out this NPS drama) but I have many good memories.
Although it is hard to stay optimistic on things cloud & Europe, I'm happy to say we had a good conversation with Executive Vice President #stephane_sejourne & staff of the European Commission yesterday. We touched on various things, including all-important procurement reform which could boost our local cloud efforts. #eurostack
An internal paper gives some clues about the EU Commission's plans for open source policy in the future. An existing funding programme will continue under a new name and re-focus on commercial value.

Adventure of Samsara dropped today on Steam, GOG, and consoles—and right away, it’s stirring the pot.
You play as the Solar Champion, a long-dead Plutonian resurrected by the Sun to set the multiverse back in order. Which, in practice, means exploring labyrinthine castles and frozen wastes, hacking down the undead, picking up hidden augments, and slowly becoming an unstoppable force. It’s very Metroidvania: ten biomes, tough bosses, and secrets tucked into every corner.
Now, the controversy. Atari slapped “Adventure” into the title—obviously a wink at the 2600’s Adventure, the proto-RPG that invented the concept of the “Easter egg.” But let’s be clear: this game has nothing to do with Adventure. The branding is pure jiu-jitsu.
In fact, Atari had no hand in this until fairly recently. The game started life back in 2016 as Tower of Samsara, a crowdfunded project that never met its goals. Years later, Atari swept in, put their stamp on it, and now here we are with Adventure of Samsara.
Does it stand on its own? Absolutely. It’s pensive, deliberate, and puzzle-minded in a way that feels more Prince of Persia than Castlevania.
Actually, it looks more like something you’d have seen on an Atari ST in 1989 than on a 2600. And now I kind of wish it actually got that ST demake, because the chunky pixels and vibrant colours would feel right at home there. Snow falls, torches flicker, reflections shimmer off stone walls—the world feels alive.
The audio carries the same care. Everything has a drenched-in-reverb atmosphere: sometimes quiet and contemplative, sometimes pounding with urgency. It feels like weather, bleeding into your ears.
Control-wise, I ran it on a keyboard and was shocked at how good it felt—tight, precise, and, dare I say, better than gamepad. But Xbox and PlayStation controllers work just fine if couch gaming is your thing.
Tech specs are feather-light: a Core 2 Duo, 4 GB RAM, and a 1 GB DX10 card will run it. It’s native on Windows, Mac, and Linux—no Proton required—and it’s already Steam Deck Verified with the green checkmark.
As for price, it launched with a 10% discount off $19.99 USD—C$23.39 here in Canada. For a thoughtful Metroidvania with ten biomes and native Linux support, that’s more than fair.
A hero resurrected. A new Adventure. With stunning, 2D pixel art, Adventure of Samsara combines classic gameplay, a deeply connected world, and a heady, twisting narrative of death, rebirth and memory.
Maybe time to try a set of cat-pressable buttons that play human-language phrases? Clearly, your cat already understands that making mouth noises at each other is something humans like to do.

in reply to The Conversation U.S. • • •Did you get the idea that all these guys want to push America into the dark ages not just socially, but technically.
The irony is that somehow the United States is going to compete with China however, you want to define that. With what arrogance?
