This is what the NY Times chose to highlight from the Netanyahu/Trump meeting, compared to Al Jazeera.
You decide which is the important news.
I love how smart these AI technologies are. They understand that "bigger" for cities can be ambiguous, refer to either the population or the area. It's also great that it's showing the sources in the upper corner, and displaying the basic facts.
Small minus on consistency and correctness, but other than that, really a great answer.

Farmworkers in California are organizing a strike, Huelga para la Dignidad, Strike for Dignity.
Their demands include immediate citizenship and protections for farmworkers across the country, and an end to the raids, abductions, and deportations.
Their calls to action to us include not buying produce during the strike and spreading the word.
Fund to support the workers and their families: bit.ly/farmer-fund

Laura Loomer is an advisor to Trump, and she's quite clear that what's going on is not "deporting criminal aliens" but the ethnic cleansing of all 65 million Latinos in the US. In fact she's pretty clear she wants this to be the genocide of the US Latino population.
I'm not sure many people recognize we're already a few lines into the "first they came for the..." poem. But we are.

Finally, some good political news! The gender-affirming care ban has been struck from the budget bill by the Senate parliamentarian.
Since R's now need 60 votes to make that provision happen, it's probably dead in the water.

@tedu awwwww yeah!
@tedu @novalis you can also grab the individual honk you wanna reply to and fetch it with the xzone
@novalis @tedu you can use the xzone to load user B (might not work retroactively though, havent done it in a while) but i agree a "fetch full convoy" button would go hard
@ariadne big same, win2k/xp was about as good as the UX got and its all gone downhill from there
@are0h yeah seen this for a while now. honestly when the UX is a copy of corporate you should expect the governance is also - underlying thought process is shared most of the time

free software, anarchism
free software, anarchism
not to pontificate too much but: the ethos that people should be empowered to solve their own problems together by freely associating into short- or long-lived collaborations is the foundation of free software. it also works. modern computing does not happen without self-directed volunteers working together to make it happen. we have 30+ years of evidence at this point.
the roc package was broken in the AUR. i didn't need anyone's permission to fix it. the original maintainer made me co-maintainer. i merged my changes into the original package. i do not know this person, we'll probably never meet, but we collaborated and Arch Linux is better for it. computing is kept afloat by a million interactions like this.
and like... this is anarchism. if anyone asks or is confused as to what it is, this is it. with 200+ years of theory about how to think about it and manage problems and scale etc but this is The Thing as far as i can tell. people solving problems together without coercion or central coordination.
committed anarchists make the leap of observing the effectiveness and morality of this kind of organizing and ask how to scale it to other aspects of society, to all aspects. and there are answers to those questions. but it feels like a big deal to me that modern computing in large part is made possible by a kind of informal anarchist organizing.
a persistent frustration of mine is free software people struggling to make the bridge between the two, and i blame anti-left american propaganda and a limited western educational systems...

Computers Are Bad is, as always, hand-built, artisanal internet served directly to you from Albuquerque, New Mexico. You can rest assured that when it is down or slow or otherwise broken, it is because *I*, personally, have fucked up, or hardware has failed and I am on the way to Best Buy.

Am I bad for feeling a bit giddy about all the massive centralized services being down and causing disruption? This is exactly why we should cure tech people of their cloud fixation. It's easy until it all dies. https://downdetector.com/

https://docs.coop/
Building on the great work of Suite Numerique (https://docs.numerique.gouv.fr/home/), we are offering an opportunity to be part of a new collaborative Docs platform as a service, that provides an ethical alternative to Google Docs, Office 365, Notion etc.
Docs is the result of a joint effort lead by the French 🥖 (DINUM) and German 🥨 (ZenDiS) governments which represents a paradigm shift in the way open source software is funded.
