Introducing #devBnB. A concept. Where city developers can “book” coding opportunities to go to a farm or small village project in need of open source/hardware expertise to build farm solutions, federated power grids, rural traffic solutions, reverse-engineer proprietary shit. Escape from the city. Build open source code. Feel nature. Experience small communities. It’s what you want. Admit it 😀
A weird idea, but who knows, sounds like a fun project! Wanna join? 😀

Nach uns die Zukunft?
„Zukunft der Schule“ Viele Schulen befinden sich gerade im Wandel und stellen sich die grundlegende Frage, wie sie Lehren und Lernen zukunftsfähig gestalten können. Über das Thema »Schule der Zukunft« hat der Bildungsjournalist Armin Himmelrath im Podcast mit Olaf-Axel Burow gesprochen. Er beschäftigt sich seit langem mit Fragen der Veränderung in Schule und im Bildungssystem. Die »Schule der Zukunft«, so Burow, ist vor allem durch eine Haltung und eine Vision geprägt, die alle Beteiligten miteinander verbindet.

US court rules many of Trump's global tariffs are illegal
A US appeals court has ruled that most tariffs issued by US President Donald Trump are illegal, setting up a potential legal showdown that could upend his foreign policy agenda.
The ruling affects Trump's so-called "reciprocal" tariffs, imposed on most countries around the world, as well as other tariffs slapped on China, Mexico and Canada.
In a 7-4 decision, the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit rejected Trump's argument that the tariffs were permitted under an emergency economic powers act, calling them "invalid as contrary to law".
The ruling will not take effect until 14 October, to give the administration time to ask the US Supreme Court to take up the case.

4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law
This article was produced in collaboration with Court Watch, an independent outlet that unearths overlooked court records. Subscribe to them here.4chan and Kiwi Farms sued the United Kingdom’s Office of Communications (Ofcom) over its age verification law in U.S. federal court Wednesday, fulfilling a promise it announced on August 23. In the lawsuit, 4chan and Kiwi Farms claim that threats and fines they have received from Ofcom “constitute foreign judgments that would restrict speech under U.S. law.”
playlist.megaphone.fm?p=TBIEA2…
Both entities say in the lawsuit that they are wholly based in the U.S. and that they do not have any operations in the United Kingdom and are therefore not subject to local laws. Ofcom’s attempts to fine and block 4chan and Kiwi Farms, and the lawsuit against Ofcom, highlight the messiness involved with trying to restrict access to specific websites or to force companies to comply with age verification laws.The lawsuit calls Ofcom an “industry-funded global censorship bureau.”
“Ofcom’s ambitions are to regulate Internet communications for the entire world, regardless of where these websites are based or whether they have any connection to the UK,” the lawsuit states. “On its website, Ofcom states that ‘over 100,000 online services are likely to be in scope of the Online Safety Act—from the largest social media platforms to the smallest community forum.’”
Both 4chan and Kiwi Farms are notorious online communities that are infamous for their largely anything-goes attitude. Users of both forums have been tied to various doxing and harassment campaigns over the years. Still, they have now become the entities fighting the hardest against the UK’s disastrous Online Safety Act, which requires websites and social media platforms to perform invasive age verification checks on their users, which often requires people to upload an ID or otherwise give away their personal information in order to access large portions of the internet. Sites that do not comply are subject to huge fines, regardless of where they are based. The law has resulted in an internet where users need to provide scans of their faces in order to access, for example, certain music videos on Spotify.
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has said the Online Safety Act “is a threat to the privacy of users, restricts free expression by arbitrating speech online, exposes users to algorithmic discrimination through face checks, and leaves millions of people without a personal device or form of ID excluded from accessing the internet.”
Ofcom began investigating 4chan over alleged violations of the Online Safety Act in June. On August 13, it announced a provisional decision and stated that 4chan had “contravened its duties” and then began to charge the site a penalty of £20,000 (roughly $26,000) a day. Kiwi Farms has also been threatened with fines, the lawsuit states.
"American citizens do not surrender our constitutional rights just because Ofcom sends us an e-mail. In the face of these foreign demands, our clients have bravely chosen to assert their constitutional rights," Preston Byrne, one of the lawyers representing 4chan and Kiwi Farms, told 404 Media.
"We are aware of the lawsuit," an Ofcom spokesperson told 404 Media. "Under the Online Safety Act, any service that has links with the UK now has duties to protect UK users, no matter where in the world it is based. The Act does not, however, require them to protect users based anywhere else in the world.”
Update: This story has been updated with a comment from Ofcom.

Ein wichtiger Gedanke dazu ist, dass Sanktionen gegen den Staat Israel durch Europa auch Auswirkungen auf die Beziehungen mit der USA haben wird.
Auf Distanz gehen zu Trumps Regime, statt immer weiter nach dessen Pfeife zu tanzen wäre überfällig. Europa muss seine Demokratien gegen brutale, rechtsextreme Antidemokraten verteidigen. Sanktionen gegen den Staat Israel sind auch ein wichtiger Teil davon.
Es ist ja auch eine einfache, moralische Frage:
Ist es moralisch vertretbar Völkermord zur unterstützen?
Natürlich nicht.
Also muss man damit aufhören.

in reply to Josh • • •The image features a large white structure resembling a house, with the text "YOU ARE NOW ENTERING FREE DERRY" prominently displayed in bold black letters on its front. Atop the structure, a flagpole flies a transgender pride flag, characterized by its horizontal stripes of blue, purple, and pink. The structure is set against a cloudy sky, with a tree and a building visible in the background. The ground around the structure is paved, and the overall scene suggests a public space, possibly a memorial or a landmark. The text and flag indicate a message of inclusivity and freedom, specifically referencing the Free Derry area in Northern Ireland.
