Not content to merely erase women, LGBTQIA, non-whites, and poor people from the public sphere and government, Trump is now actively trying to murder them. nytimes.com/2025/03/11/climate…
"This week, we talk industrial policy. Economist and author Steve Keen joins me to shine light on the present moment by exploring the historical use of tariffs and industrial policy in the development of industrial powers from Britain to China. In his usual style, Keen aims to dismantle the myths of free-market economics, explaining how virtually every successful industrial nation began with protectionist policies. With the US now engaged in a trade war with Canada and other nations under Trump's renewed tariffs, we examine whether such measures can effectively rebuild American industry without the comprehensive industrial policies that powered China's meteoric rise. Hint: Keen believes this simplistic tariff solutions may create more chaos than revival for America's industrial base."

here In the #fediverse each one makes its own timeline, by following users (and hashtags)... but discovery of ones and others is often hard. The federated timeline is hard to follow and since I am not using mastodon (I use #pleroma) I do not have the hashtags section of it... I was wondering then if there is a "hashtag service" in the fediverse I can follow?. I already follow @trending, but I'd like also to know more, as many times I do not follow just what's trending 😉 #ask
In the latest episode of "Why the 21st Century is impossibly stupid", GNOME calculator contacts the ECB on startup to get currency rates. It just hangs on startup otherwise, the whole calculator not just the currency stuff. The ECB has blocked GNOME calculator (I guess because it was getting trashed by all the connections).
To fix this, you can do "dconf write /org/gnome/calculator/refresh-interval 0", whatever tf dconf is, because when I tried it told me dbus-launch is missing, wtf that is, because it doesn't have a package. Turns out it's in "dbus-x11". I dunno why X11, because I use wayland, but I'm past caring at this point. I installed it and it worked.
Now I can calculate how much postage I need to pay for this parcel.
A bloody OS-shipped desktop calculator, DDoSing a central bank, and blocking on connection failure.
I am sure you searched gnome-calculators tickets and found gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c… which CLEARLY describes that this is a regression in the used HTTP library and not gnome-calculator and it does NOT download the rates on every start. But you do your way fishing for cheap cheers, because it's GNOME, right, and everyone know they only do BS /s
I'm running Fedora Silverblue 38.20230509.0, and GNOME Calculator 44.0 via Flathub. I've been using GNOME Calculator for years, with no problems. Today, it suddenly stopped working....
The hunting influencer had to privatise her accounts after posting a video where she steals a baby wombat from its distressed mother and runs away with it.
“A video of an American influencer picking up and running away with a baby wombat after stealing it from its distressed mother has gone viral, with wildlife experts saying the woman’s behaviour is illegal.”
UNIX includes a command to deal with your cat walking on your keyboard. When your cat is coming, you just type "cat" and press enter, and your cat's input won't mess anything up.
Testimony Reveals Doors Would Not Open on Cybertruck That Caught Fire in Piedmont, Killing Three
"...And troublingly, that testimony also showed the Cybertruck’s doors could not be opened in the aftermath of the crash, preventing Riordan from pulling the other three victims from the flaming wreckage. ..."
The Highway Patrol’s investigation into a November Cybertruck crash in Piedmont where three college kids died is finding two very Tesla problems: the vehicle immediately caught fire, and its doors would not open.
We got another "critical vulnerability" on #curl reported. I figured you might enjoy it.
"The authentication mechanism in cURL does not properly restrict the number of failed authentication attempts, allowing an attacker to brute-force credentials"
Its often asserted that successive Govts have not been helpful to business or stood in the way of economic development; taken as proof that the UK lacks an industrial strategy.
But, look at this & previous Govt.s attitude to financial services (bowing to its lobbying for either lighter regulation or preferential tax treatment) & what you see is the UK's successful industrial strategy.
The problem is its focussed on financial services!
Perkins Coie was the law firm I used when I ran Cloudera. They provided outstanding representation on a wide variety of matters. We did substantial and important business with the Federal government -- I remain enormously proud of that collaboration.
As a patriotic American and as a businessman, I deplore the President's EO and I encourage the courts and the Congress to contain this insanity.
When a president uses executive power to not just blacklist but effectively destroy a major law firm, solely for representing political opponents, it means he’s given up any pretense that he’s not …
