Israeli occupation forces bombed the Gaza Strip early Tuesday morning, killing at least 12 people and injuring 20.

Three Islamic Jihad commanders were killed in the bombings, along with many of their family members, which Israel claims were in response to rockets being fired from Gaza following the death of hunger-striking political prisoner Khader Adnan.

'Many experts welcomed the Lilly data as an important step forward but cautioned that donanemab was not a cure and the full results of the trial have not yet been published and need to be closely studied.'

A while ago, I read about the psycholgical effect that kicks in when someone tries to fight for a good cause, but then makes a tiny mistake.

We are very hard on hypocrisy because our brains like when things add up.

I.e. a climate activist with a plastic cup triggers much harder than Elon taking a 5 minute flight in his private jet every other day.

The first feels wrong, while the second just meets our expectations.

I can't stop seeng this everywhere ever since.

Just in case anyone didn’t know, the police are currently arresting anyone peacefully protesting against the coronation and its lavish extravagance during a time of national need.

Currently. Arresting. Peaceful. Protestors.

This is not my country. This is a dystopia.

Latest release of GrapheneOS replaces Qualcomm PSDS (XTRA) servers with a GrapheneOS server caching the data by default:

grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/

We've also fully removed the unnecessary User-Agent header instead of only removing the serial number from it as we did previously.

The only feature that matters for any social media experience is the people who are on it. I'm amazed at how many technology leaders forget this and get distracted by the underlying tech, protocols, features, etc.

Elon is a great example. He thinks he bought a platform. But what he really bought was a community. And of the two, the community has degraded far more than the platform.

Nejib Chebbi nous apprend que Ahmed Doula, un des interpellés dans l'affaire du complot, a été libéré après avoir passé 2 mois en prison pour avoir vendu une voiture à Khayem Turki. Sa vie a été explosée, ses photos ont été balancées sur les RS, sa famille harcelée... #Hbelistan

The year is 2021. Joe Biden is president. You earn 410,000 dollars. 10,000 of them are taxed higher than the other 400,000. Your fist clenches. The communists have won.
