Il y a des chances, s'il veut continuer son "travail d'artiste", qu'il rétropédale comme pour le 11 septembre. Il a de bonnes intuitions parfois ce garçon, mais pas les gonades pour les assumer.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has postponed his trip to Washington, which was scheduled for 8 October, due to opposition from PM Benjamin Netanyahu, who reportedly first wants cabinet approval for a plan to attack Iran and to speak with US President Joe Biden.

Haaretz reported that according to sources familiar with the matter, Netanyahu wanted the security cabinet to approve plans for an attack on Iran prior to Gallant’s departure.

The art is great, and the artist is great (*waves paw* this isn't aimed at you Sylvia), but could you PLEASE not push the narrative that only humans are allowed to make art? That only humans are real?

I AM A WOLF AND MY ART IS ART.

Thanks.

@IceWolf Thank you! I am very sorry. I bet this misunderstanding happens too often by accident these days :(. AI messed a lot up (in some areas for the good like health treatments) and we are not yet used to it. Art will always be in/on e-art-h and soon also on other planets. You are wonderful 🐾 💚 .


The story of a disabled Palestinian woman burnt alive by an Israeli soldier


Hweihi was forced to hastily flee the tent the family set up in the courtyard of a school-turned-shelter in northern Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp.

This was because Israeli troops had suddenly begun to fire live bullets inside the school ahead of storming it during a devastating three-week assault on the camp in May.

Duaa, who was unable to speak or move, was left behind inside the tent because her father couldn’t carry her.

After the soldiers entered the school under the cover of heavy fire, men and women were separated.

Moments later, a soldier poured gasoline on dozens of tents in courtyards before setting them on fire.

His voice drowned out by the hammering blast of tanks and heavy gunfire, Hweihi stood watching silently and hopelessly.

“She was burnt alive while we couldn't move,” he said.

Support for changing the working directory with env(1) has just landed in #FreeBSD. It'll be a part of the upcoming 14.2-RELEASE.

cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?i…

What does that mean? Now you'll be able to run:

env -C /tmp make

Instead of:

sh -c "cd /tmp && make"

(Although to be fair make(1) is not the best example as it has its own -C flag.)

The -C flag is compatible with #GNU env as found on most #Linux distros.

Official Civilization VII feedback survey by Firaxis


Developers of the upcoming Civilization VII game, Firaxis, are looking for some feedback regarding the game. This is our opportunity to show them there are many players on GNU/Linux and that integrating Denuvo anti-cheat rootkit would be a big no-no (it's mentioned in one of the questions).

Thanks for sharing this.

Here's hoping they listen to feedback.

I left this series because it became a buggy mess.
I added "stop making a buggy mess" anywhere I could.
I'm not holding my breath, but I would love to get back into playing Civ again.

I guess there's always Civ II, though. It's quite stable, now, and runs everywhere.

in reply to MajorHavoc

Same. I've played all the Civs. But I feel like the same issues with something like the Sims is creeping into the Civ franchise. The game has more features but somehow is less fun.
I got into Humankind a little while ago and had loads of fun with that.


Hey @gamingonlinux I’ve noticed on protonDB people are saying GTA 5 online is working on Linux again? Any verification on this?

Palestinian families killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza

Zein was the youngest member of the al-Najjar family, a common surname in Gaza meaning “Carpenter” in Arabic. They lived in Deir el-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.

On October 10, 2023, 18 members of the family – including five children and three women – were killed and 23 others injured in an Israeli air strike on their home. Zein was just two months old.

Liking the new features in the latest Mastodon, especially grouped notifications! I just wish they didn't feel the need for construction sign styled CW's and introducing excessive borders in what was previously a clean looking design. It's reminiscent of what @kde seem to have been trying to get rid of for years and here we are introducing it on Masto.

Still, these gripes are just a CSS file change away on what is otherwise a great release,

Vor kurzem erschien im NatureMedicine ein Paper, laut dem die Impfungen nur einen kurzfristigen Schutz vor #SARSCoV2 bieten würden. Das gefiel sowohl den Antivaxxern als auch der "Wer Impfungen propagiert, verharmlost #COVID19, denn nur Masken bieten echten Schutz" Gruppe.

@enirenberg widerspricht. Das Studiendesign sei gar nicht in der Lage, die Behauptung zu stützen.

> these vaccines reduce transmission

So would staying home when you're sick. Paying people to do so would likely cost the public health system less than 'flu/ 'rona vaccines do.

> vulnerable groups the added boost in protection provided each season can literally be the difference between life and death

Eccepting this for the sake of argument, this is a good reason for those people to have the vaccines. Not everyone.

> potentially averting the inconvenience of relatively mild illness in otherwise healthy people and associated economic losses

Can you point me to any peer-reviewed evidence that those economic losses are greater than economic losses from paying pharmaceutical companies to produce 'flu/ 'rona vaccines? Again, I think it would be cheaper and kinder to do what Asian countries routinely do, support people to mask up and/or isolate when they have symptoms of respiratory illness.



Recent expeditions in Vietnam and China have unveiled two new species of toads with teeth: the Mount Po Ma Lung toothed toad and the Yanyuan toothed toad. These toads, characterized by an unusual row of tiny teeth on the roof of their mouths, belong to the rare Oreolalax genus, known mainly from the two countries. With these discoveries, there are now 21 known toothed toad species.
