@Leilani_ seems to me this "parasite" thing wouldn't be logical anyway, it's not "our species" being parasitic, the vast majority of us is sustainable for the ecosystem, the problem is it's very difficult to stop those very upper classes people who are by far the most damaging, and get back ("we", the middle classes) from our excessive consumption...


The #European Commission has welcomed a new Code of Conduct for Online Ratings and Reviews for Tourism Accommodation, endorsed by key stakeholders in the #EU tourism ecosystem. Co-created by accommodation providers, online platforms and others, the Code aims to improve the transparency, authenticity and reliability of online reviews. It focuses on distinguishing genuine reviews from actual guests and unauthenticated ones, helping travellers make better-informed decisions. Commissioner Apostolos Tzitzikostas highlighted the Code as a major step in restoring trust in tourism through fairer and more reliable information. Open to tourism operators, platforms, associations and consumer groups, those who sign up commit to ensuring honest, verifiable reviews. Though not part of the Digital Services Act, the initiative marks progress towards a more resilient and trustworthy tourism sector.

For decades, the U.S. has showered corporations with subsidies and tax breaks and bailed them out while rarely asking for much—or anything—in return.

If taxpayer money is going to prop up private firms, as it has for decades, then taxpayers deserve a share of the gains, too. trib.al/BoGFleB

Steam takes 30% unless your sales volume is high enough for reduced rates. Bandcamp takes 15% unless your sales volume is enough for reduced rates. Banks charge fees unless you have enough wealth to leave thousands idle in an account.

#Genocide in #Palestine is #ClassWar & #ClassStruggle. #Israel / #Gaza is merely a show room for the military industrial complex & their #WMD 's. Once protecting lives is no longer cost-effective, #Capitalism will turn to mass murder to maintain profits. This is what's happening in #Palestine.

So ... I think I've been in denial about my laptop trackpad ... it is actually physically broken from wear. I've had the thing for 8 years ... so yeah, it's showing its age. But I don't really want to buy a new one right now. I mean: it still works. Just not the trackpad. I think what I'm going to do is just tether it to my tv and use it with that and a wireless keyboard and controller.
in reply to David 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️NB they/them

@SailorDisco Maybe? It's an older Dell laptop. I probably could replace it ... but the thought of getting all the laptop guts to fit back together ... the terror.

I've made my peace with it. And like I said - I'll still be using it. I'd been thinking about getting a Steam Deck .. Having this beast of a computer plugged into the tv is probably better.

in reply to Cowboy Who?

I’m having trackpad issues too with my MacBook and replacing the pad is the better option for me since I don’t have the money right now for even a cheaper laptop. I probably need to replace the battery too.

Obraz jest podzielony na dwie części. Górna część przedstawia dwóch mężczyzn ubranych w militarne zbroje i hełmy, stojących przed metalowym budynkiem. Obaj mają na sobie zielone kombinezony zbrojne i hełmy, a jeden z nich ma na sobie ciemny płaszcz.

Dolna część obrazu przedstawia scenę z filmu, w której dwóch mężczyzn, ubranych w zimowe ubrania, stoją na zimnym terenie z zimnymi drzewami w tle. Jedno z nich ma na sobie futrzaną kurtkę, a drugie zielony płaszcz. Obok nich stoi grupa innych osób.

Na obu częściach obrazu znajdują się teksty w języku polskim. Górna część zawiera pytanie: "Co to za jedni?" Dolna część odpowiada: "Od Kaczyńskiego. Pokojowa misja NATO."

[Alerte disparition]

En cette rentrée, avec débat sur la dette, une donnée essentielle a disparu des médias : les aides publiques aux entreprises nous coûtent un #PognonDeDingue : 211 Mds € en 2023.

➕En 20 ans, elles ont surtout augmenté 3,3 fois vite que les aides sociales & 3 fois que le PIB.

in reply to Maxime Combes

(...) selon nos calculs, elles augmentent, sur 20 ans, 3,3 fois plus vite que les aides sociales, et 3 fois plus vite que le PIB : de quoi remettre en cause quelques certitudes sur les déficits publics, les sources d’économie ou qui sont les assistés.
in reply to Maxime Combes

Résumé :
1⃣des dépenses incontrôlables
2⃣un effet cliquet à la hausse
3⃣des sources d’économie
4⃣les assistés ne sont pas là où on le dit
5⃣des droits … mais pas de devoirs
6⃣un « corporate welfare ».
7⃣résultats insuffisants
8⃣un levier de transformation du capitalisme FR

Obraz przedstawia postać w średniowiecznym stroju, siedzącą na zewnątrz przy wodzie. Postać ubrana jest w czerwony płaszcz z ozdobą na piersi, a na głowie ma metalowy hełm z siatką. W tle widoczne są roślinność i woda. Na obrazie znajdują się dwie linie tekstu. Górna linia brzmi: "PANIE GERALT, PAN ŻĘS JEST PIJAK, ALKOHOLIK", a dolna: "I DO TEGO EROSONMAN". Tekst jest w języku polskim i odnosi się do postaci Geralt z Wiedzy, znanej z literatury fantasy.

Das sind Dinge, die mich einfach unglaublich wütend machen:

Allerdings haben sich die destruktiven Kommentare, die ich für die Kolumnenbeiträge erhalten habe, so sehr gehäuft, dass ich das Projekt nun aufgebe. Nicht nur in den Blog-Kommentaren und öffentlich im Fediverse, vor allem privat, habe ich Nachrichten bekommen, die mich auch persönlich angegriffen haben. Für eine unbezahlte monatliche Technik-Kolumne auf einem Community-Blog. Sei es, weil Menschen einfach das Fediverse als Konzept ablehnen, mir persönlich die exponierte Stellung der Kolumnistin nicht gegönnt haben, eigenen Problemen, schlichter Misogynie oder anderen Gründen: Es gibt keine Rechtfertigung, Menschen im Internet so anzugehen. Doch durch die Kolumne konnte ich mir im Kalender anstreichen, wann ich mich auf seitenlange verletzende Nachrichten einstellen konnte. Was für mich auf Dauer eine psychische Belastung dargestellt hat, die ich so nicht mehr hinnehmen will.


Da engagiert sich jemand über das Normale hinaus, um anderen gute Dienste zu leisten und dann erntet man nur Neid, Missgunst oder sonst irgendeinen geistigen Dünpfiff von zurückgebliebenen Neandertalern! 🤬

Dabei beziehe ich mich nicht auf konstruktive Kritik oder Denkanstöße, diese haben mich gefreut, sondern auf Beleidigungen und persönliche Angriffe. Ich bin einiges durch meine Arbeit in der Kommunalpolitik gewohnt, aber nicht jeder Kampf ist es auch wert, gekämpft zu werden.

Und was ist die logische Konsequenz? Richtig, das eigentlich so geniale Projekt wird eingestellt.

Liebe @Ückück ​​, auch wenn ich es mega schade finde, kann ich es sehr gut nachvollziehen, dass du dich dazu entschieden hast. Ich möchte mich für deinen Einsatz und deiner Arbeit von Herzen bedanken und wünsche dir für deine anderen Projekte gutes Gelingen. Wir werden dich aber bestimmt noch im Fediverse lesen? ☺️

I've had an idea for a while of a movie about proto-anarchist pirates with a truly international cast who target the ships of major European corporations and official State Vessels of the like of England and France. Part of my "Lefty Revisionist" stories along with one I've worked on about cowboys who discover Marx and try to unionize in the Old West.

okay, so it's a silent film from the 10s, science fiction. Loosely based on the novel aerial anarchists part of a trio, but one of them is lost.

Inspired the Italian feminist futurist film Filibus, about a gender fluid, bisexual sky pirate, which came out in 1915.
