#Gaza #Palestine

U.N. officials voiced concern on Tuesday that the same methods of warfare used by Israel that caused high civilian casualties and widespread destruction in Gaza are now being repeated in Lebanon, calling for action to avoid the same "spiral of doom".

Israeli forces have begun ground operations in the southwest of Lebanon, escalating a year-long conflict with the Iran-backed group Hezbollah that has killed over 1,000 people in the past two weeks.

Our weekly listing of news related to matters of #ClimateChange includes easy access to 30 stories.

Story of the Week is about Hurricane Helene, centering on revising tropical storm threat communications to account for bulging inland deluges. Little did we realize that three days later we'd be looking at --another-- warming-juiced monster storm barreling in. But here's Milton.

Sincerely: best luck to Florida. Let's --all-- remember: our best luck is made, not found.

I've actually been using it for nearly a year! It sure helps to have a persistent notification that makes me aware that I've been using the phone for a little too long

Only problem I had with it is that one day it changed from going back to 0 minutes at midday instead of midnight and it has stayed that way for half a year. But it's still 24 hours, so no big deal

je n'ai pas encore tout lu sur le fond et ça a l'air intéressant, mais par contre visiblement l'accessibilité mobile ne fait pas partie des critères ^^

Amusant comme c'est :

2. tout à fait complémentaire (même si certains points sont légèrement en conflit)



From Meta to X to LinkedIN, companies are eyeing up our data to train AI. Despite this, the Information Comissioner's Office is leaving a data protection enforcement gap in the UK.

This weakness sends the message that the use of UK people’s data is fair game, leaving one-sided commercial exploitation unchecked.

ORG is calling for the data watchdog to be reformed in upcoming legislation.

In the mean time perhaps make a post that says

I DO NOT consent to my data being used to train AI, changing the T&C to say I need to agree does not mean I consent, it could be construed as consent due to duress if I am unable to use your service unless I do consent.

I DO NOT consent.

No idea if this would work or the duress part is binding, but it may get the message across.

#Gaza #Palestine

Israel is being accused of using white phosphorus bombs in Palestine’s Gaza and in southern Lebanon as it launches deadly assaults in the two regions.

The usage of white phosphorus is restricted under international humanitarian law.

Although there can be lawful uses, it must never be fired at, or in close proximity to, a populated civilian area or civilian infrastructure, due to the high likelihood that the fires and smoke it causes spread.

Industries like cement, iron and steel require vast amounts of process heat.

❗️This results in 1/5 of global CO2 emissions.

➡️ The good news: most process heat can be electrified. That is more efficient and enables the use of clean power.
