@TripTilt Dumm sein ist einfach, dumm sein erfordert nichts von dir, wenn du dumm bist hältst du dich meist für schlau.
Ich denke das Hauptproblem liegt darin, dass viele Menschen frustriert sind, über Job, Wohngegend, neue Trends, Unverständnis eines gesellschaftlichen Wandels oder ähnlichem was um sie herum in ihrer Welt passiert.
Da sie Dinge nicht verstehen/ ergründen oder hinterfragen können/ wollen, suchen sie nach zu kurz gedachten einfachen Antworten hierfür.
The Bill Gates who created MS-BASIC in 1976 would have been mad as hell that the language, which provided Microsoft's foundation, would ever be open-sourced.

This is Behind the Blog, where we share our behind-the-scenes thoughts about how a few of our top stories of the week came together. This week, we discuss slop in history, five-alarm fires, and AI art (not) at Dragon Con.
EMANUEL: We published about a dozen stories this week and I only wrote one of them. I’ve already talked about it at length on this week’s podcast so I suggest you read the article and then listen to that if you’re interested in OnlyFans piracy, bad DMCA takedown request processes, and our continued overreliance on Google search for navigating the internet.

“I think that the way [HB 15] went down is a really good sign. We’re hopeful that it means it doesn’t come back again, and that we can preserve some level of transparency for all Texans, because they deserve it.”
O regime comunista da China prendeu nesta semana um homem de 47 anos acusado de fazer “comentários difamatórios e injuriosos” sobre o desfile militar realizado em Pequim para marcar os 80 anos do fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial no Pacífico.
Over the last week or so, I’ve been telling the story of how, in the space of a decade, the Bavarian car-maker Glas advanced from the almost toy-like little Goggomobil to the Maserati-like V8 models. I’ve just discovered that I’ve got another photo of the original Goggo, which shows off its design better than the pic I previously posted. Snapped at the Bremen Classic Motor Show in 2014. Another Goggo treat tomorrow.
Lana’s epic super thread is a reminder. Life is easy. Its people being racist, stupid bitches in a violent capitalistic society that sucks and is actually hard to deal with.

A federal judge Friday ruled against the #Trump admin from ending temporary #legal protections that have granted more than 1 million people from #Haiti & #Venezuela the right to live & work in the #US.
Chen said #DHS Secy [puppy dog killer] #KristiNoem’s actions in terminating & vacating 3 extensions granted by the previous admin exceeded her statutory #authority & were #arbitrary & #capricious.
When companies do lay-offs I think disabled employees should be the last to cut. My reasoning is the outsized impact job loss has on us as disabled people and our families. Now, I'm fine with termination for cause such as poor performance. I'm just talking about involuntary severence. Now i issue the challenge to kindly employ a little empathy before all those keyboards out there start smoking with all the judgment and vitriol. #accessibility #blind #disability
Okay, ich hab mir mal die Mühe gemacht, dieses absolute Kult-#Piratenpartei-Meme mal rauszusuchen.
Das hier ist Nathanael Bienia, genannt Nati, beim Bundesparteitag 2010.1 in Bingen, am 15. Mai 2010. Das Originalfile ist hier: archive.org/details/Aufzeichnu…
Es geht um die Frage, ob ein Antrag zur Gliederung des Grundsatzprogramms vorgezogen wird. Siehe auch im Protokoll: wiki.piratenpartei.de/Bundespa…
Der Meme-Moment ist ab 01:35, aber auch das ganze Drumherum ist sehenswert, gerade für (Ex-)Pirat*innen.

An appeals court has temporarily blocked a federal judge’s decision ordering Florida and federal officials to begin winding down operations at Alligator Alcatraz, the controversial immigration detention center in the Everglades that opened in July.
As I reported last month, in response to a lawsuit filed in June by environmental groups, US District Judge Kathleen Williams had ordered the dismantling of equipment at the detention camp, such as fencing, lighting, generators, and other infrastructure, as well as a pause on the transfer of detainees to the site. The groups had argued that the construction of the camp proceeded without an environmental review or opportunity for public comment, in violation of the National Environmental Policy Act. But the state of Florida argued that the facility was a state-run operation, and, therefore, federal environmental protection laws did not apply.
Hastily erected in late June on a remote airfield by Big Cypress National Preserve, Alligator Alcatraz has been fraught with reports of malfunctioning air conditioners, scarce food, and rampant mosquitoes. Detainees are held in large white tents, each containing multiple fenced areas with 32 beds and three toilets. State and federal officials running the center have previously stated that the camp would be for immigrants with criminal records, but as the Miami Heraldreported in July, many detainees have no prior arrests. In July, nearly 1,000 detainees were being held at Alligator Alcatraz. This week, The New York Times reported that between 120 to 125 detainees are currently at the center.
In her ruling, Williams had sided with the environmentalists. “The project was requested by the federal government; built with a promise of full federal funding; constructed in compliance with ICE standards; staffed by deputized ICE Task Force Officers acting under color of federal authority and at the direction and supervision of ICE officials,” she wrote, “and exists for the sole purpose of detaining and deporting those subject to federal immigration enforcement.” Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier promptly filed a notice indicating the state would appeal to the US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
In a 2-3 decision on Thursday, the three-judge panel in Atlanta granted the defendants’ request to pause Williams’ ruling pending a future decision on the appeal. The judges found that the detention center did not violate NEPA because it was funded by the state and not the federal government. “Obtaining funding from the federal government for a state project requires completing a formal and technical application process,” the ruling states, which has not yet occurred. Alligator Alcatraz is predicted to cost $450 million a year, and the DeSantis administration has previously stated it would seek FEMA funds to cover those expenses.
“Alligator Alcatraz is in fact, like we always said, open for business.”
Florida officials celebrated the ruling on social media. “Alligator Alcatraz is in fact, like we always said, open for business,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a video posted to his X account. “We are going to continue leading the way when it comes to immigration enforcement.”
Meanwhile, Friends of the Everglades, one of the plaintiffs in the case, issued a statement saying that “the case is far from over.”
“While disappointing, we never expected ultimate success to be easy,” Eve Samples, executive director of Friends of the Everglades, said in the statement. “We’re hopeful the preliminary injunction will be affirmed when it’s reviewed on its merits during the appeal.” Talbert Cypress, chairman of the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians, which later joined the lawsuit as a plaintiffs due to the detention center’s close proximity to their communities in the Everglades, told the Miami Herald they were “disappointed in the majority’s decision to stay the injunction. We were prepared for this result and will continue to litigate this matter.”
