In 2024, the Democratic Party has decided to abandon the strategy of "when they go low, we go high."Former First Lady Michelle Obama coined that moniker, which was eventually embraced by 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in her uns…

It won't surprise me if the GOP is relying on market-research guidance that their voting base is so devoid of economic hope (let alone basic civics knowledge) that they'd easily believe they're voting on the winner of a reality show called "Weird Sick Freaks" - with no clue what that's about to do to their retirement or their offspring.

Academics worldwide are facing pressure to self-censor discussions on #Gaza, with fears of being labeled antisemitic or pro-terrorism. The suppression is particularly intense in the #US, where scholars critical of #Israel's actions risk professional retaliation and social ostracism, reflecting a broader trend of diminishing academic freedom.

How Academia Failed the Test of the War in Gaza

Faced with the genocide in Gaza, most Western universities have responded with cowardly silence. Academia’s dependence on political sponsorship and weapons firms has muzzled its critical spirit and created a dismal culture of self-censorship.

The media spent weeks talking about nothing but Biden's age and his mental fitness until he was forced to drop out. But now that Biden dropped out, suddenly the media is not very interested in this topic and they barely mention it.

And the fake news they go, he told this crazy story with electric. It's actually not crazy. It's sort of a smart story, right? Sort of like, you know, it's like the snake. It's a smart when you, you figure what you're leaving in, right? You're bringing it in the, you know, the snake, right? The snake and the snake. I tell that and they do the same thing.

Meine Frau braucht einen neuen Laptop. Kein Linux, sondern "ganz normal", so wie andere (Kollegen und Bekannte) das auch haben: einfach in den Laden gehen und kaufen. ...

Die Einrichtung (Win 11 Home) kostet 70 Euro, "ist nicht mehr so einfach, wie früher". Ja, das Microsoft-Konto wird mit angelegt. Einen Recovery-USB-Stick gibt es für 8 Euro dazu.

Windows Defender? "Ja, der findet vieles, aber Avast findet 'einfach alles'". 20 Euro für ein Jahr. Danach: mal schauen. Es sei dann oft billiger.

Ja, Office. "MS365 ist das beste, weil es einfach das Beste ist. Und immer aktuell." 70 Euro für 15 Monate, danach 7 Euro pro Monat. Da geht kein Weg daran vorbei.

Ich wollte noch nach LibreOffice fragen, aber klar: LibreOffice kann man halt niemandem verkaufen. Zumindest nicht im Elektronik-Markt. ...

Wie es denn mit Cockpit und Copilot sei, und ob Windows Recall denn deaktiviert ist, will ich wissen.
Oh, KI ist ganz groß im Kommen. Wir werden gar nicht mehr ohne können. ...

Klar, kann man so machen. 🤷‍♂️ ...

"The Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office has said state law already allows for the Bible to be taught in classrooms, but doing so is a district-by-district decision. Based on comments to the media and letters sent to patrons, most of the districts that don’t plan to implement the directive have leaned on that principle of local control in making their respective decisions concerning curriculum."

We intended to add a bathroom in our basement at some point in the future, but we are moving that project up as TJ‘s uncle will be staying with us for a bit. Of course he will be up here on the main level hanging out with us a lot, but we want him to be able to be as comfortable and self-sufficient as possible while he’s staying down there. He doesn’t cook either, but we will get him a mini fridge and a microwave to have. We want it to be as much like his own little apartment as we can make it.

Aktuell sind rund 21% der Arbeitnehmer in Deutschland formal unterqualifiziert, arbeiten jedoch oft in Fachkraftpositionen. Die Reform soll sicherstellen, dass erlernte Qualifikationen überprüft und zertifiziert werden, um die berufliche Handlungsfähigkeit und Vergleichbarkeit mit regulären Abschlüssen zu gewährleisten.

If weeds are abundant, work with them and not against them.

You can compost them as long as you don't put any seeds in the pile.

Or you can make a liquid fertilizer to give back to your soil the nutrients they have taken.

A recently released study shows that Facebook is the most disliked social media platform in the world. Reddit was the second most disliked platform.

Hardly surprising was that Tik Tok is the most popular social platform.

The reason those like Musk and Zuckerberg are pushing to have the government shut down Tik Tok is pretty clear now.

Im Lokalteil des Käseblatts ein Porträt von Frauen, die sich in der Politik engagieren. Dabei die 18 jährige Tochter eines ex SPD Bürgermeisters, die Jura studiert und sich in der Jungen Union engagiert. Sie steht für strikte Migrationspolitik, ist gegen Gendern und hält die Legalisierung von Cannabis für falsch. Umwelt- oder Sozialpolitik Fehlanzeige. Nicht nur, dass ich mich für so eine Tochter schämen würde, diese Jugend macht mir Angst.
