My only thought for today
We are at rock bottom and lack perspective, so it can be hard to view what we are going through with normal human eyes. But in the future, normal human eyes *will* demand complete accountability for what is happening in Gaza. Our view of humanity is so jaded that it can seem impossible to believe accountability will happen, but it will. This is a holocaust. Netanyahu is one of the greatest monsters of history. Zionism is murdering, starving, abusing, and torturing the innocent in vast numbers, in a systematic program of extermination. And to answer the prevalent trope, this is not anti-Jewish. Zionism is also murdering Judaism. This we know, and there *will* be full accountability. Only those who believe our humanity shall never return could say otherwise. The future will demand answers. Why did all of our governments across the West support this Zionist genocide, this holocaust, regardless of political persuasion? How did the entirety of the media turn a blind eye and act as the perpetrators' propagandists? How did every platform, every outlet, hide from us the broken bodies of babies? who decided what? So many lies will be exposed, and the answers will shake the US hegemon and its allies to the ground, as well as leading to the imprisonment of many currently respected figures . It is over. We just don't yet know it. And what each of us does now, how everyone is responding to this holocaust right now, is the truth of us as humans. Never will we know a greater test of our character that measures each of our strengths and weaknesses. What is happening in Gaza and to Palestinians right now will echo for decades, perhaps for centuries. The future *will* know us, even if we do not know ourselves

Government Accountability Office (GAO) warns of privacy risks in using facial recognition in rental housing

Property technology broadly refers to the use of software, digital platforms, and other digital tools used in the housing market. Property owners and renters use these technologies for functions including advertising, touring, leasing, and financial management of rental housing. These tools may incorporate computer algorithms and artificial intelligence.Selected Property Technology Tools Used in Rental Housing
Property technology tools used for advertising, tenant screening, rent-setting, and facial recognition have both benefits and risks. For example, facial recognition technology can enhance safety, according to three industry associations and all 10 of the public housing agencies in GAO's review. However, these tools also may pose risks related to transparency, discriminatory outcomes, and privacy. For instance, potential renters may struggle to understand, and owners to explain, the basis for screening decisions made by algorithms. Facial recognition systems also might misidentify individuals from certain demographic groups, and property owners might use surveillance information without renter consent, according to advocacy groups GAO interviewed.
The four federal agencies took several actions to address these risks. To combat alleged misleading and discriminatory advertising on rental platforms, agencies pursued legal action and obtained settlements requiring changes to advertising practices and improved compliance with the Fair Housing Act. They also took enforcement actions against tenant screening companies for using inaccurate or outdated data.
However, all 10 public housing agencies stated public housing agencies would benefit from additional direction on use of facial recognition technology. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) current guidance to these agencies is high-level and does not provide specific direction on key operational issues, such as managing privacy risks or sharing data with law enforcement. More detailed written direction could provide public housing agencies additional clarity on the use of facial recognition technology and better address tenant privacy concerns.

A breve dovrei avere un blog hostato su @log così che non avrò premura di dover pagare Ghost(pro) per il momento.
E penso che da qui, per la prima volta, scriverò una breve recensione su Ironsworn, il primissimo GdR che ho appena giocato in solitario dopo anni da quando abbandonai l'hobby per mancanza di persone e di interesse.
In questo blog non potrei soltanto trattare di GdR ma anche di parlare di altre robe hobbistice tra cui videogiochi, film, serie tv e altro nerd dal mio punto di vista unico.
Avevo già ideato un titolo, The Analogue Dolphin. Avrei voluto usare una traduzione italiana del titolo ma il motivo per cui vorrei nominarlo in inglese è perché sarà anche un posto per cui piazzare le mie actual play di GdR in solitaria.
Water. Earth. Fire. Air. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony.

A woman goes to a newspaper stand every morning looking at the front pages, but never buys one.
One day, the seller asks her about her routine.
"Oh, I'm looking for an obituary."
"Those tend to be on the back page, though."
"The one I'm waiting for will be on the front page."

Rescued some camera gear.
It was a Pentax ME with a set of lenses. It was found in an attic with no info. Not working was the tone.
Collected the camera and the lenses.
After close inspection, the thing that kept the camera from doing camera stuff was,.... A pair of batteries inserted the wrong way.
Today I replaced the mirror damper.
Let's put some short Fomapan 200 inside of it.
Prendendo spunto da un discorso di @salvadorbs sulla situazione di com'è l'internet oggi.
Sono l'unico qua che ha nostalgia del vecchio sito della Nintendo? Quello ancora nel periodo della Wii e del DS.
Quel sito dove entravi e, sfogliando la lista di giochi usciti e che devono uscire, andavi a caccia della pagina dove potevi trovare o dei minigiochi o una piccola preview/demo dei giochi DS/Wii da provare Online per darti una piccola idea di cosa potevi aspettarti.
I think Windows is trying to gaslight me, my mouse speed is all wrong even though none of the settings changed.
Maybe it's a sign I've slipped to another dimension. A dimension where the only difference is that mouse pointers move and statesmen die a little faster.

Das Bild zeigt eine stilisierte Illustration einer Hand, die nach unten zeigt. Die Hand ist detailliert gezeichnet, mit hervorgehobenen Linien und Fältchen, die die Hautstruktur darstellen. Auf der Hand befindet sich ein roter Fleck, der auf eine Verletzung oder eine besondere Bedeutung hinweisen könnte. Der Hintergrund ist in zwei Farben geteilt: rot auf der linken Seite und blau auf der rechten. Unter der Hand steht in großen, blauen Buchstaben das Wort "HOPE" (Hoffnung). Die Illustration hat eine retro-Posterart, die an politische Kampagnenplakate erinnert. Oben im Bild ist ein Profilbild eines Mannes mit Sonnenbrille zu sehen, und daneben steht der Text "xennialfarmer" sowie "Mike Block · Vivaldi's Winter 1".

#GAZA La présidente du Comité international de la Croix-Rouge dénonce les plans israéliens pour une évacuation en masse de la ville de Gaza. Elle qualifie l'idée de "non seulement infaisable mais incompréhensible".
#Gaza
Je me permets d'ajouter la source : le communiqué de presse du #CICR qui date d'aujourd'hui, samedi 30 août 2025.
Le texte qui suit est une citation attribuée à la présidente du CICR, Mirjana Spoljaric :
" (...) Une telle évacuation entraînerait un déplacement massif de population qu’aucune zone de la bande de Gaza ne serait en mesure d’absorber, compte tenu de la destruction généralisée des infrastructures civiles et de la pénurie extrême de nourriture, d’eau, d’abris et de soins médicaux." (...)

The tendency of American cultist consumers to follow fads like lemmings off a cliff is going to make this as prevalent as plastic slip covers once were. The only good news is that you'll always know a cultist's house when you walk in. #politics

There were already two new gravitational-wave candidates today – so far.
S250830m, if real, most likely came from a merger of two black holes 12 billion light-years away.

S250830bp, if real, came either from a merger of two black holes (84% probability) or from a merger of a black hole with a neutron star (16% probability). The distance is “only” 1.4 billion light-years. The sky position could be determined quite accurately (to within 10.5 square degrees).

I really dont understand how people can be so heartless and live their lives without empathy and compassion for others, when every single day, whether one realizes it or not, we all need help in some way every day, and some of us need lots of help, and sooner or later we all need lots of help, yet so many, most go everyday willfully ignoring the pleas for help from those in need.

Nein, ich bringe nicht die drölfzigtausendste Auflistung, was ein Feed ist. Ich nehme mal wieder an den #BlogWochen2025 teil. Und da geht es nun einmal diesmal darum, dass die Feeds halt nun mal wichtiger sind, als viele denken. Es gibt ja auch jede Menge Blogger, die denken, dass der gute alte RSS-Feed sowas von letzte Saison ist. Ist er das?

Nur mal so als Hinweis an die Personen, die den Ausbau der Autobahnen im Bereich #Frankfurt und umzu als die Lösung aller Verkehrsprobleme im Rhein-Main-Gebiet betrachten:
Zwei Tage nach Eröffnung des neuen A100-Abschnitts in #Berlin musste dieser wegen zu hoher Verkehrsbelastung kurzzeitig gesperrt werden.
