Maybe some of the people at the College Board should sign up for their own European History course so that they can learn about how many groups were complicit in the rise of fascism by refusing to stand against its repressive demands.
Clearly it’s a lesson they haven’t learned…

Ah google is now reporting my new coffee roasting website as a "deceptive site"
That's frustrating.
Anyone want to help disabuse google of that notion?

So the very thing they blamed for losing the election, they committed fraud themselves, blamed fraud for a stolen election but presented no evidence the Democrats even attempted let alone used fraud.

Russian cybersecurity firm Kaspersky said it detected three versions of Prilex (06.03.8080, 06.03.8072, and 06.03.8070) that are capable of targeting NFC-enabled credit cards, taking its criminal scheme a notch higher. https://thehackernews.com/2023/02/prilex-pos-malware-evolves-to-block.html

The fact that all these drones exist but no maker has made one that looks like the robots from "Batteries Not Included" is disappointing...

A reminder that, in the real world where people live and work, “Cancel Culture” is usually perpetrated by Republicans purging people for being insufficiently deferential to white Christian power.
Republican apparatchiks just fired a University President so they could replace her with a white supremacist.

Most valuable career guidance I've come across in a long time was given by Steve Gibson in his latest podcast.
my best advice for picking a career, any career, has never changed: first and foremost follow your heart over your wallet. Many people with fat wallets and thin lives. Find something you love and work to get really good at it. You’ll enjoy the process of getting good at it and then you’ll love being good at it.

FBI searching Biden’s home in Rehoboth Beach
https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/01/politics/fbi-searching-joe-biden-home-rehoboth
I want to know why the FBI isn’t searching every residence Trump owns, including the golf course his ex-wife is buried on? How can Biden be under more scrutiny than the guy who admitted he STOLE Top Secret documents!! #GarlandFailure

If you don’t want to do the math, that’s about 15,000 Americans still dying from COVID every single month.
But sure. The pandemic is over.
@dangillmor
Is there a way to preseve the existing curriculum content? So it can't be forgotton or erased from history, people have studied this, have notes, etc, so if we can collate them or at least ensure they don't get thrown away (which people do once courses have ended) we can ensure that the material is available to others.

What a disgrace the "nonprofit" College Board has made of itself -- "strips down" the Advanced Placement program in African American Studies to satisfy racist critics. (AP courses are a BILLION-dollar revenue item for this outfit...)

Congratulations to Exxon Mobile for earning $56 billion net profit in 2022. Against all odds, they found a way to make record profits
$6.3 million per hour
$1,750 per second
But don’t worry. That didn’t stop Exxon Mobil from getting subsidies from our government. Since FY2000
Texas gave them $1.4 Billion
Louisiana: $500 Million
The federal government: $5.4 Billion in bailout money
Does anyone want to know why we are speedrunning to climate crisis?
@doctorjaymarie@mastodon.world
Which is why I suggested you could do with an account similar to the @auschwitzmuseum which gives a day to day post of a person, persons or event at the camp, but apply to black history there are many people in Black history to celebrate, but also many people who have been killed by police alone, that should not be forgotton, so weather it is a birthday, or a person who has contributed to science, human rights, politics etc, lets celebrate, there has to be something for everyday of the year.
It is also really useful to be reminded of MLK day, we don't have that in the UK, but there would also be Rosa Parks (which kids do learn about) and many others, including those who worked at NASA etc.
It just brings all the names forward so they are not forgotten, puts photos to names.
Yes, the changes in the Highway code puts responsibility on drivers.
However surely as a pedestrian you do have some responsibility, to use commons and be observant.
