Damn... Finally I am also affected by this stupid #YouTube automatic title #translation. Even if I open links on phone in NewPipe...
I saw some subtitles translated instead of original ones too. I guess I will see their stupid dubbing soon...

*The consensus is clear: it’s genocide. Now will international law die in Gaza too?* I am sure that is what right-wing dictators hope for. Some don't care particularly about Gaza or Israel, but they want to get rid of anything that might restrain their own violence, regardless of what purpose they do it for.
The consensus is clear: it’s genocide. Now will international law die in Gaza too?
The clue is in the name: the convention on the prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide. When will we act?, asks Raji Sourani, the coordinator of the Palestinian legal team at the international criminal courtRaji Sourani (The Guardian)

Trump's attacks on Comey and leadership shifts in prosecutors' office could undermine case, legal experts say
The indictment of former FBI Director James Comey on Thursday marked the culmination of President Trump's yearslong desire to see one of his political foes punished after the bureau's investigation into his 2016 presidential campaign and Russian meddling in that election.
But the president's long-held ire toward Comey, coupled with his latest comments cheering the federal charges brought against the former FBI chief, could aid defense lawyers in a potential bid to have the case against Comey tossed.
"In this case, the facts before the indictment and even comments Trump made after the indictment provide strong factual evidence that Mr. Comey is the victim of either selective or vindictive prosecution," Gene Rossi, a former federal prosecutor who worked at the Justice Department for nearly 30 years, told CBS News.

It's only 10 hours per week. There are no zoom calls. There are no KPIs. No social media management. No reports to generate.
I can literally do this anywhere, it won't fry my brain or kill my spirit, & it funds my adventures.

Clarence Thomas gives bonkers reason for SCOTUS to tear up settled laws
Justice Clarence Thomas is finding increasingly creative ways to justify reshaping long-standing laws.
During a rare appearance at Catholic University’s Columbus School of Law in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, the George H.W. Bush–appointed justice said the Supreme Court should take a more critical approach to settled precedent, arguing that decided cases are not “the gospel,” ABC News reported.
Thomas, 77, compared his Supreme Court colleagues to passengers on a train, and said: ”We never go to the front to see who’s driving the train, where is it going. And you could go up there in the engine room, find it’s an orangutan driving the train, but you want to follow that just because it’s a train.”
He reasoned that some precedents were simply “something somebody dreamt up and others went along with.”

Piccola lezione di educazione civica a proposito dei due adolescenti olandesi arrestati per aver cercato di spiare Europol per conto della Russia utilizzando dispositivi di hacking
Ricordiamo a voi ragazzi in ascolto (se non lo siete, ricondividete ai ragazzi che conoscete) e a tutti gli hacker e agli aspiranti hacker, che un reclutamento di questo genere inizia sempre in modo innocuo, di solito con una chiacchierata sui social su Discord o su Telegram a proposito della vostra opinione politica e la vostra posizione nei confronti del vostro Stato; in seguito viene somministrato un piccolo test per verificare se siete indifferenti verso l'illegalità.
NB: essere indifferenti verso l'illegalità non è necessariamente un male! Si può essere contrari all'illegalità senza dover per forza provare sentimenti contro di essa, ma l'indifferenza verso l'illegalità DEVE SEMPRE essere accompagnata da un solido senso civico e SOPRATTUTTO dalla consapevolezza che ci sono persone malintenzionate che sanno "fiutare" il vostro "distacco morale" per usarlo come un'arma o per farvi diventare un capro espiatorio!
A quel punto può esservi anche offerta una piccola somma di denaro destinata a incoraggiare le attività criminali o a finanziarle: si tratta generalmente di danni alla proprietà o di intercettazioni abusive.
Questi primi "incarichi" in realtà sono spesso gli ultimi, perché chi viene reclutato così è una risorsa "usa e getta", ma possono essere utilizzati per ricattare il reclutato e costringerlo addirittura a svolgere operazioni più gravi.
Ricordiamo tuttavia che, se è un soggetto di uno stato ostile a chiederti di farlo, un atto vandalico è un sabotaggio e un'intercettazione è un'attività di spionaggio!
Qualunque sia la vostra opinione o la vostra etica, prestarsi ai "suggerimenti" di un "agente" di un altro Stato può comportare pene molto gravi!

Like the emergence from a cocoon, often I can feel my soul fighting to leave my body, my head both hurts and has the feeling of emptiness, while my heart often feels as though it has been slowly ripped apart, and as it still pumps my blood through it, I can feel every single twitch and with a thump thump thump, I can feel my blood both pumping and dumping out throughout my chest, for my breath often shortened and labored still to strong for my body to rest, yes my soul continues to fight to emerge from my body, and my body defies it's urge to go;

Screen technology will cause a crisis of loneliness and will lead to widespread depression.
Then, society will grow more fragmented and disconnected.
Technology promises to liberate us, but it controls us for the benefit of others.
The people who control the technology hide their goals.
Our survival will depend on our ability to remain independent of these forces.
Kindness and compassion will be the starting point.
Art can help us heal.

in reply to Mad A. Argon • • •@madargon: moreover, if your interface language is set to English -- YouTube also enables the god damn automatically generated dubbing. This is what's heavily criticised by a lot of people as I noticed.
First time I saw that with one of Polish YouTubers, I thought he launched an English language section of his channel. But no, I later discovered the English dubbing has been enabled without my knowledge.
Plus the automatically generated voice is uhhh... pretty bland, to say the least. As if you were watching a movie narrated by someone to whom emotions are next to unknown.
