"Deep within the rainforest of South America, live groups of people who have guarded their African traditions, language and spirituality for over two centuries. Known as Maroons, these escaped slaves defied a global empire to win their independence and become masters of their realm. Until recently, their lands were off-limits to outsiders, shrouded in mystery. Join us as we step into their world to tell the incredible story of the Maroons of Suriname.

Nepal's government said Thursday it is blocking most social media platforms including Facebook, X and YouTube because the companies failed to comply with regulations that required them to register with the government.
Rumors have been spreading all week that NYC Mayor Eric Adams was about to drop his reelection campaign — possibly at the behest of U.S. President Donald Trump, who reportedly favors disgraced former governor Andrew Cuomo. Things reached fever pitch when Adams announced a press conference today, only to say that he's staying in the race, and believes he will beat front runner Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee who Trump describes as a communist. Here's more from CNBC.

Empörung nach Tweet zu Friedland-Mord: Prien kritisiert Amadeu-Antonio-Stiftung tichyseinblick.de/meinungen/fr… Man könnte den Eindruck gewinnen, dass Ministerin Karin Prien ein Fan der Amadeu Antonio Stiftung ist – und das schon länger. Umso länger, umso lieber möchte man fast sagen. Im Mai 2022 enthüllte sie jedenfalls als Landesministerin ein Schild am Eingang zum Kieler Ministerium für Bildung, Wissenschaft und Kultur als Art apotropäischen
Nach dem Mord an der 16-jährigen Liana in Friedland empören Tweets der Amadeu-Antonio-Stiftung: Der irakische Täter wird als Opfer mangelnder Fürsorge dargestellt, die AfD als eigentliches Problem markiert.

Mark Zuckerberg, a bankruptcy lawyer from #Indiana, has filed a lawsuit against Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of #Meta.
Mark Zuckerberg the lawyer uses a commercial #Facebook page to #advertise his legal practice & communicate with potential clients. But his page has been disabled 5 times in the last 8 years, since Meta’s moderation systems flag his account as falsely impersonating Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of the platform.
Mercanti (Pd): “La mobilitazione spontanea di Borgo per la pace a Gaza è segno di speranza” La consigliere regionale: "La società civile così ci chiede di non girarci dall’altra parte e di tenere alta l’attenzione su Gaza"
I wrote an essay about Robert Eggers' 2024 remake of Nosferatu recently. It's a film that really moved me. I tried to explore some of the themes around patriarchy and capitalism that are present in the work.
A principios de semana un comisario de la UE cagueta, en concreto el de comercio, Maroš Šefčovič, que no quería que Trump se enfadase y subiese aranceles, paralizó una multa a Google. La encargada de las sanciones no es otra que Teresa Ribera, a la que le importa 3 pepinos lo que diga la morzoleta naranja, alias "como se me meta algo entre ceja y ceja lo acabo haciendo aunque tenga que atropellar a media docena de gilipollas antes". Bueno, solo ha tardado 3 dias: euractiv.com/section/tech/news…

It hosted 4000 athletes during the games. The facilities included swimming pools, gymnasiums, sports fields and a manmade lake.

Das Olympisches is an abandoned Olympic village in Germany, It was later used as a Nazi, then a Soviet Military base. It features a large swimming pool.
I think the Warergate cover-up caused Nixon more harm than the original Watergate crimes. Trump is too busy trying to alter history to be able to learn from it.

"The footage, released Thursday by conservative journalist James O’Keefe..."
This is where people should just stop reading. He's not a journalist, he has zero credibility.
See, this is why I've been saying people should meet their new partners at protests. If you're looking for someone smart and kind, an anti-Nazi rally is a target rich environment. Everybody is so hilarious and nice, a Nazi would stick out like a sore thumb.
Forget Hinge. Meet people yelling "FUCK DONALD TRUMP!" in public, it's a great start.
Quantum computers are coming for your secrets. Literally. They’re not here yet, but when they arrive, they’ll break most of the encryption that protects the internet today. That sounds dramatic, but it’s not science fiction.

in questo articolo dall'intrisione di nostalgia (in realtà non ho ricordi di quest'auto) leggo nominate solo macchine belle, sarò l'unico che ha trovato accettabile anche l'alfa romeo arna? la vorrei in un giochino di macchine apposito. però all'aneddoto sul maurizio del caso mi sono arreso. siamo e rimarremo gli ingenui della storia 💪
io ricordo ancora distintamente come vent'anni fa in Argentina parlassero della Duna come di una signora macchina, mentre io spiegavo in giro del megapacco che FIAT aveva tirato :'D

Die Türken lieben Kölnisch Wasser, bekannt unter dem Namen Kolonya. Dass dieses National-Desinfektionsmittel seinen Ursprung in Köln hat, wissen allerdings die wenigsten. Dabei findet man im heutigen Deutschland kaum etwas anderes derart Beständiges.
The president seems fixated on controlling museums lately. He has most recently set his sights on the 9/11 Memorial, though it’s unclear exactly how the federal government would gain power over the site.
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Deadline: Anthropic has agreed to pay at least $1.5 billion into a class action fund as part of a settlement of litigation brought by a group of book authors.
This is amusing. As a result of another posting here on Fedi, I found out that my books were among those Anthropic had scanned. So, I may be getting a few bucks out of this.
Android desktop mode beta, or Chromebook in your pocket I enrolled on the Android Beta and am typing this on my phone plugged into a USB-C dongle that provides HDMI and USB.
The idea is it's supposed to turn your phone into a portable "real" computer.
