If I owned a Deli Meat line I'd make a collection of cheap frozen pizzas that are a showcase of our meats as toppings. Salami, ham, pepperoni, roast beef.
Recent recognitions of a Palestinian state by several European countries are not acts of solidarity but a profound betrayal that undermines our struggle for liberation by legitimizing Zionism.

In Hallmark movies, the bad guy is a boyfriend who says, 'Uh, no, babe. I can't drop everything and leave work this weekend. I'm about to close a ten-million-dollar deal that will set us up for life,' and the good guy is just standing there when she returns to her hometown.
in America, the winner is the guy who says, 'Uh, no. I can't drop everything and leave work this weekend. I'm about to close a ten-million-dollar deal that will set me up for life,' and the loser is the guy just standing there in the uncouth hometown she will never go back to.
For this weekends Saturday Night Special, I proudly present - Please Don't Go Girl by New Kids On The Block. Alright,so New Kids On The Block can bring up some mixed reactions in terms of the popularity they ended up reaching. And unlike groupie girls who went out to buy their comforters, bedroom sets, pillow cases, dolls and whatever else they were marketing, I always go back to the music. I liked New Kids long before all the crazy popularity set in. I remember when this song first came out, and I was instantly hooked because it had the Jackson 5/New Edition vibe to it. In short, I was NKOTB when NKOTB wasn't cool. This song also holds some fond memories of a person I was dating at the time it came out. Overall, it's just a cute love song. I like the melody, the lyrics, and the grove of it. Anyway, enjoy the trip down memory lane!! 💋
Protesters in Cape Town demand SA govt sever ties with Israel over Gaza
CAPE TOWN - More than 3,000 people marched through Cape Town on Saturday, calling for South Africa to cut trade and diplomatic ties with Israel, including by shutting its embassy, over the war in Gaza.
....
Saturday's demonstration brought together several pro-Palestinian organisations, political parties, and Muslim and Christian groups in one of the biggest such turnouts in months.
Waving Palestinian flags and slogans such as "Don't just feel bad, do something", the procession handed over a petition of demands at parliament.
South Africa must "boycott, divest and sanction Israel, the same way as the world did for us," said Palestine Solidarity Campaign coordinator, Usuf Chikte, referring to international measures used to pressure South Africa's apartheid regime.

it's a funny street, some businesses that have been there for decades (some even pre fall-of-the-wall) and others much more transient. Also (as my friend darkly pointed out) wide enough to drive 2 columns of tanks into the centre of Berlin from the east - should the need arise. Lots for Staybehind to do 😀

Before switching to #mobian on my phone I was afraid I would miss apps. It turns out to be very different. Not working (yet?) is the non-standard onlinebanking, threema, signal (soon to change) working: calendar, tasks, addressbook all including sync, calls, messages, whatsapp, matrix, mastodon, rss, discord (no threads), backup, music, dark mode, routing for public transportation, navigation.
I like the approach. My fear is #Meta will require to use an app they make, i.e. their #proprietary app on a proprietary OS (#Android or #ios). The solution is requiring people to use #FreeAsInFreedom, ideally #serverless #InstantMessenger . Sadly there are too many alternatives which is detrimental to an actual migration from proprietary services.
@paoloredaelli There is no fix for this while continuing to use their walled gardens. I do realize this makes me sound like Stallman. I do not think chat needs to be serverless to be free. There is xmpp which works really well in 2025. As for clients, picky any. This is the selection I tried: on android Cheogram or snikket or conversations. On Linux dino or gajim or profanity. Windows clients I have not tried, but there is gajim and dino.
@paoloredaelli The problem is to get everyone to change at once. Since this is hopeless, there are approaches like slidge. This allows me to use a decent client, be part of a standarized open protocol while keeping in touch with non FSF-folks.
I think that your approach is the more feasible coupled with a "please contact me on xmpp at $address. Open your account at $provider or $another_provider"
Ob all die, die sich hier oft zu politischen Themen abfällig äußern, dann auch außerhalb der Fediverse-Gleichgesinntenblase im realen Leben engagieren?
Es wäre schön, wenn man neben den 100sten "lustigen" Meme öfter mal hört, "ich hab mich heute hier engagiert, ich habe an Abgeordnete oder die Zeitung geschrieben, ich habe eine Veranstaltung angestoßen usw."
Die Antidemokraten haben nicht so eine Zurückhaltung und überfluten die Leserbriefredaktionen und Politikerbüros.
Tja, ich geh auf Antinazidemos und zu Critical Mass, engagier mich in nem Gartenprojekt und so. Das is natürlich (nie) genug aber (ernste?) Texte schreiben is mir eher ein Graus / anstrengend, insofern werden eher weniger Politker*innen / Zeitungen angeschrieben +__+
@jfml Prima! Ich wollte auch niemanden persönlich kritisieren, aber ich finde, wir sollten viel öfter erwähnen, was wir tatsächlich tun, um auch andere zu inspirieren.
Klar ist Texte schreiben nicht was, das alle gerne mögen oder können, dann gibt's eben anderes, so wie du das auch machst.
@jfml "tue gutes und rede darüber" hadert immer sehr mit "Spiel dich nicht so auf" in mir. Ich versuche auch immer hier hin und wieder mal was über mein Ehrenamt zu schreiben aber ich will ja auch niemand langweilen und ach 🤷

Fancy running Linux on your #pc98 computer? Feel like GCC-2.95 and KDE1 are a bit dated?
I've put together a little guide on getting newer compiler and software on it; upgrading Plamo 3 to Plamo 4 gives your GCC-3.3 and KDE3. Plus I've compiled busybox for it - so you could have modern-ish vi, lsof, and so on.
Your PC-98, now with the latest stable libressl and tiny-curl 8.4.0. No certs yet, thus --insecure. I really, really want to browse web with this Pentium laptop, okay?
Good evening. It's 10PM, Saturday, 27th September. The headlines: #England's women have clinched the #Rugby World Cup title. At the UN's 80th General Assembly, #Russia's Foreign Minister delivered a speech. Prince Harry claims attempts to thwart his reconciliation with the King. A political gathering in Tamil Nadu ended in tragedy, claiming over 35 lives. #BBC #News

But I can't find anything recent there. I can't find Spring or Sprite Fright, for instance.
I just want a little library of high quality 4k stuff to add to my jellyfin and peertube to demo on nice monitors and projectors, but all their links go to Youtube. Even their official peertube doesn't have high quality anything outside of big buck bunny 🤔
Where did they put the other films (for download)? I am happy to torrent them, but I'm also happy to just download a zip somewhere. I just want them ideally in 4k, but I'll settle for 1080p if they REALLY don't exist in 4k for the public.
Big Buck Bunny 60fps 4K - Official Blender Foundation Short Film
Enjoy this UHD High Frame rate version of one of the iconic short films produced by Blender Institute! Learn more about the project here bbb3d.renderfarming.net. Support more Open Content at cloud.blender.org.
NOTE: currently, YouTube allows 60fps only on 1080p videos. We uploaded the video in UHD, so maybe in the future it will be available in UHD 60p. You can download the original version at bbb3d.renderfarming.net.
I am unstoppable! I found every single film except one called Heros, but honestly it really really warms my heart to see such dedication to open source. Every single one of these is completely open source. You can download the assets and re-render it yourself if you want. The world is your oyster. They used to laugh at people using blender and say that it would never be a professional tool and now it is one of the tools to use for 3D work, and it's free! I love FOSS so much
Well he certainy knows what he needs to do tactically in order to continue the genocide. And we gotta keep ourselves informed about the new weapons of hasbara.
They absolute can whitewash it. There's a historical precedent for white washing war crimes over millennia. Generally you just have to dangle shiny objects in front of enough of the younger generation and they'll carry the worldview you feed them for a lifetime. Social media just makes it all the more easier.
They have done it over and over again. This is not Israel's first attempt at wiping out an entire Pestinian city yet most people acted as if it is and stayed silent for literal years.
They have enough money and friends in high places to recover from this, unfortunately, and they'll keep doing it until Palestine is no more.
And they won't stop there either. We're talking about a country that repeatedly invaded all of its neighbors. They won't stop there.
I don't know what Israel's term limits are or anything but I remember years ago learning he was on audio accepting a bribe and was probably going to be prosecuted. No wonder America and Israel are so friendly. Both corrupt to the core
design so good I didnt expect it to be actually entered into an contest when I first saw it. But yeah the diaper is probably a bit to much for general audiences 😞
Jetzt habe ich endlich den Artikel von Leena Simon bei @digitalcourage gelesen. Hat sich gelohnt, so grundsätzlich. Darf gern jeder mit einem eigenen #Blog gelesen werden.
We went to buy our #Halloween pumpkins (early) at a local church we support. They buy exclusively from a Navajo tribe in NV, and the local church does a lot of nice things for young mothers.
They had their usual assortment of cool #pumpkins in addition to what they call "alien gourds, " which were even cooler than last year.

Hey #electronics hive mind, can I have your help please? We have a set of LED fairy lights with a little control module that has 8 modes, and we only use the 8th one, "constantly on". We'd like to fix it so it always comes on fixed in constant mode. Don't care about the other modes at all. I can see there are two channels - powering alternate LEDs on the rope, which are switched by two transistors, controlled by a chip under a resin blob. I tried bridging the bases of the transistors, but that just made the LEDs flicker. So I'm wondering if it's safe to just bypass them entirely by bridging the emitter and collector? As far as I can tell, the LEDs are being driven by raw 240v DC, coming straight out of a bridge rectifier from the mains. As the LEDs are in series, the village drop compounds, hence the high voltage. My reasoning is that if I bridge the transistors, the power will just go straight to both channels... But my understanding is pretty basic... If it helps here are two pics of both sides of the board. Yes, I know it's janky - I have plans to at least anchor the wires, but not until I've fixed this issue. (Sorry forgot to add images, done now)
So…this is it. The end of everything as we know it. The escalation that we’ve feared.
“Full force.”
Portland is about to become ground zero for live rounds and the civil war between fascism and everything that is good.
I’m very, very frightened for what is upon us here. In my own backyard, where kids are playing and people are walking by the river. The propaganda is insanity.
Please, whatever you do, stay safe. And don't forget to check in with us who are many miles away and worried. Be strong when you are able and lean on friends when you need rest.✊
there is a let out there. "all necessary troops" means NONE. A bit like a "well-regulated" militia, which would require gun-nuts to report for 2 months unpaid military training each year to learn the regulations, bone-spurs or not.
Last time we had a big bubble burst (2008, the subprime crisis), the investment dollars piled into commodities like grain futures that were perceived as "safe". Result: 1-2 years later crop prices soared—a major contributory factor if not THE trigger for the Arab Spring in 2011 and the Syrian and Libyan civil wars.

i popped into the occult bookstore that opened up recently in my neighborhood and it was cute and it was fun to look around, but i'm a little disappointed by the in retrospect obvious irony of their selection mostly being fairly accessible if dubious self help books and not so much weird reference books on obscure topics. i got a cool looking iron key though
@celestia well the problem is i want the kind of occult book store that sells things like jung's red book and goethe's theory of colors, and the other problem is i already know what store sells stuff like that and it's amazon
Oh last winter I ran into a street seller, second hand books. An improvised bookshop that appeared out of nowhere. I started checking out what he has, mostly classics with fading covers, decades old. After taking a good look at me he reached deep into a cardboard box and took out a book I had never heard of before. "I think you will like it" he said solemnly, so I bought it and took it home, forgetting all about it until around May. I opened it and it was the crapiest novel I ever read.

Windows 10 lebt nach dem 14.10.2025 weiter: Das #Supportende wird verschoben.
Allerdings gibt es einen Haken.
Entgegen erster Berichte kann nicht jeder bedingungsfrei Windows 10 um ein weiteres Jahr bis 2026 nutzen. Dennoch sehen Verbraucherschutzorganisationen zumindest einen ersten Erfolg - der noch viel weiter ausgebaut werden muss.
Das Radikale Ende von Windows 10 zugunsten des Nachfolgers scheint vom Tisch - oder doch nicht? Microsoft hat Zugeständnisse gemacht, die das Leben vom beliebten Windows 10 Betriebssystem verlängern.
