One things that happened in the pandemic was that people noticed that those "making a real and lasting contribution" were the low-paid immigrants who kept the show on the road. Now it seems we've forgotten that and the "real and lasting contributors" are, once again "tech entrepreneurs" or something

Deteriorating humanitarian conditions, combined with further displacement, will only create more security challenges for Israel. Entrenched occupation fuels armed resistance and further mobilises insurgency.
The US saw this following its 2003 invasion of Iraq.
Israel has repeatedly faced the rise of armed militant groups in response to prolonged military occupations in Lebanon, Gaza and the West Bank.

The laptop is placed on a wooden surface, and the overall setting suggests a workspace environment.

Did you know that...? #FreeSoftware refers to freedom, not price. Free Software is all about your freedom.
It guarantees its users the essential four freedoms. The absence of at least one of these freedoms means an application is proprietary, so non‐Free Software.

As part of starting a pinball museum, I often have to write small explanations of what we're up to. The text can be similar, but it is never the same, because the audience is never the same. I carefully shift words, phrasings, focus, and emphasis depending on whom I'm addressing.
This is the sort of thing "AI", a stochastic text extruder, cannot do. Worse, much of the work it "saves" you from is that thinking about your audience and the topic. That work builds depth and skill!

La storia dell’incredibile falla delle schede madri Asus che permetteva di installare da remoto ogni software | DDay.it
dday.it/redazione/52942/la-sto…
> DriverHub, il software di Asus che facilita l’installazione dei driver in automatico grazie ad una impostazione del bios, aveva una vulnerabilità gravissima che Asus ha corretto. Ecco la storia di come è stata scoperta.
L'immagine presenta un circuito stampato ASUS al centro, con un'apertura che sembra un foro per una chiave, simboleggiando accesso o sicurezza. A sinistra, un laptop con lo schermo acceso mostra un'icona arancione con un chip e la scritta "DriverHub," suggerendo un software per gestire driver. A destra, un simbolo di scudo arancione con una chiave di sicurezza rappresenta la protezione. In alto a destra, un'immagine di nuvola con codice binario ("01010", "011001011", "100101010", "101001001") indica la connessione cloud. L'immagine suggerisce un focus sulla sicurezza e la gestione dei driver per hardware ASUS.

There's enormous power in just putting a name on a thing. We were all vaguely aware of how various Internet-based services were getting worse over time in a way that felt sort of deliberate. But since @pluralistic coined the term "enshittification" it's so much easier to see — and, in fact, impossible to AVOID seeing.

"AI-first" is the new Return To Office. Yup. Yup. Yup.
Tech CEOs are all copying each other again. This time, they’re yelling “AI-first!” like it’s a bold new idea. But really, they’re just trying to impress other CEOs and investors.
Anil Dash points out a sad truth: they don’t trust their workers. They’re forcing people to use AI instead of letting them choose, which tools let them do their job, the best way possible.

The image depicts a cartoon-style illustration. On the left side, there is a computer monitor displaying a cityscape with tall buildings and a road. The monitor is framed within a white border. On the right side, a cartoonish man is depicted taking a photograph with a large camera. He is wearing a dark suit and is crouched down, focusing intently on the monitor. Below the man, there is a black square with the text "Print Screen" written on it. The background is a light blue color, and the overall style of the image is reminiscent of a comic strip or editorial cartoon.

Il Fediverso è un social network 'federato' che funziona su software libero e open source, distribuito su una miriade di computer in tutto l mondo.
In parole semplici, ciò significa che molti gruppi indipendenti di persone si connettono tra loro come pari, utilizzando diversi tipi di software governati apertamente su molteplici reti.
Non esiste una corporazione centrale, una 'piattaforma', un 'back-end' o un sito web che coordini e controlli le attività.
Il #Fediverso non include pubblicità integrate, algoritmi incontrollabili o grandi corporazioni che impongano le regole.
Al contrario, offre piccole e accoglienti comunità di persone affini, in cui le questioni di moderazione e altri complessi problemi umani vengono affrontati su scala UMANA.
Benvenuti.
