„At least 1,500 children under the age of 10, including 600 under the age of four, have been killed in Gaza since Oct. 7, according to a list released on Thursday by the health ministry there. More than 100 were listed as less than a year old.“

Putin ally Lukashenko calls for ceasefire in 'stalemate' Ukraine war: 'No one can do anything'
I stopped supporting this slaughter weeks ago, as what is happening is not the answer, war is never the real answer to problems.

Laura Armstrong, "Palestinians are being slaughtered"
Anna Soubry, "Most people like me are on the edge of saying, how much worse does this have to get before I cannot support what Israel is doing any longer"

Peter Kyle, "People in Gaza are dying because of lack of medicine"
Keme Nzerem, "Are they not dying because of the Israeli bombs?"
Peter Kyle ignores the question
Keme Nzerem, "How many Palestinian children need to die before Labour calls for a ceasefire?"
Peter Kyle again ignores the question

Rishi Sunak wants us to believe that the U.K. can be a global leader in AI
But Rishi Sunak knows renewables are more efficient/productive and choses to prioritise fossil fuels
So how can we trust Rishi Sunak to do the right thing with AI when he does the wrong thing with energy 🤷♂️
How much energy does AI use to power all the technology and how much water is needed for cooling.
does AI and environmental concerns really go together.

✍️ Firefox Isn't Just a Browser; It Is a Web Resistance, and It's Now at Version 119
I'm baffled as to why Google Chrome still dominates the browser market when Firefox, a faster and privacy-conscious open-source browser, is readily available!
In the previous update, Firefox introduced a long-awaited feature – an automatic and customizable built-in translation. With this addition, Firefox fills a significant gap that was once held against it.
Now, with the latest update, Firefox 119 not only surpasses Chrome (I'm confident it does) but also competes with PDF editors. With great excitement, let's explore what this latest version has in store.

It dominates because those charged with teaching IT skills use google, microsoft, facebook et al so using those services become part of how those learning essential IT skills are taught The are not taught about alternatives.

"While I believe in self-defense, fighting in Gaza taught me that if my government doesn’t change its approach from crushing Palestinian hope to committing to Palestinian independence, not only will this war kill an untold number of Israelis & Palestinians in addition to the thousands who already have died, but it also will not decisively end terror. A ground invasion is doomed to failure."
In some ways you are just following orders in the hope that those giving the orders are doing the right thing/
Those who worked at Auschwitz also followed orders as they believed their leaders were giving the right orders.
Any accountability MUST include anyone from those at the very top to those carrying out the orders.

"When my Israeli infantry unit arrived at the first village in Gaza, in July 2014, we cleared houses by sending grenades through windows, blowing doors open & firing bullets into rooms to avoid ambush & booby traps. We were told Palestinian civilians had fled.
I realized this wasn’t true as I stood over the corpse of an elderly Palestinian woman whose face had been mutilated by shrapnel. She had been lying on the sand floor of a shack, in a pool of blood.

#WritersCoffeeClub 10/30. Did the education system inspire you or put you off writing?
My German teacher in 7th grade gave me extra homework - writing little essays.
It wasn't punishment at all. I started to love being able to express myself in words, telling stories, teaching about experiences.
It made me love language as a tool.
And then, in 9th grade, I fell in love with English. I never looked back.

The daily mail is good for sensationalism and not news. I look at the site to see what rubbish they are writing about to day, then read news from other sources.

Whitby Abbey Monastery in Whitby, England, is a hauntingly beautiful ruin on a cliff overlooking the North Sea, and it is famously associated with Bram Stoker's Dracula.

White asbestos was the least dangerous, even so , this is pretty scary to think it was use as snow.
But everyone also used to smoke back then too.
