«How the Climate Crisis Impacts Workers and Migrants» webinar
🗓️ Thursday 2nd April 2026

> The past decade has witnessed an unprecedented rise in global temperatures, with each year setting new records as the warmest. This increase—driven by human-induced climate change—results in more frequent and intense droughts, floods, erratic weather patterns, and natural disasters.
> These slow- and sudden-onset weather events make working conditions in already precarious labour sectors, such as agriculture, fishing, or garment production, unbearable. They also destroy many people’s homes and livelihoods, forcing them to undertake risky migrations or accept exploitative jobs, thereby increasing their vulnerability to exploitation and human trafficking.
> To unpack some of these dynamics, the Global Alliance Against Traffic in Women is organising a webinar to analyse how the worsening climate crisis is impacting workers and migrants. Speakers will discuss changing working conditions in countries across Asia, Africa, and the Americas, the strategies that communities are implementing to resist resource extraction and exploitation, and what steps governments must take to protect people’s rights and well-being.
I'm almost positively squealing here. ❤️🔥🌲📜💚🔥
One doesn't see this link highlighted often enough. 💖
Ofc it's GAATW noting it. ❤️❤️❤️
As they perfectly put it:
> GAATW sees the phenomenon of human trafficking as intrinsically embedded in the context of migration for the purpose of labour.

Just found out (according to Peter Theil) that critics of AI are "legionnaires of the antichrist"¹
Hello fellow legionnaires!
¹Thank John Oliver (again).
Ich hab das schonmal versucht, damals leider erfolglos. Vielleicht habe ich diesmal mehr Glück. Bitte um eure Mithilfe.
In den späten 80er Jahren (des vergangenen Jahrhunderts, für die jüngeren Mitlesenden) hatten die Wiener Städtischen Büchereien einen Werbeaufkleber mit dem Motto "Ich kann lesen und tu's auch"; das Motiv war — wenn ich mich richtig erinnere — ein rosa Schweinchen mit einem Buch in der Hand.
Kann sich außer mir sonst noch jemand an den erinnern? Hat jemand vielleicht ein altes Foto davon?
Gerne weitertröten. Vielen Dank!
So Bernie Sanders released a video of himself "interviewing" Claude and "asking tough questions". And the whole exercise is missing the entire point. This thing is a text generating machine and it's not "answering" your questions. It's just outputting text.
Asking it questions about tech and labour is a stupid exercise. What is the point of any of this?! Why even engage with this technology in terms that accept "AI" even as framing device. Ughhhh. Can't believe folks who are supposed to know better keep falling for this.
Le procès d’un policier accusé de meurtre s’ouvre devant la cour d’assises des Yvelines
Le 17 octobre 2020, après une filature inexpliquée, un policier de la BAC tire à trois reprises et tue un homme de 28 ans, Olivio Gomes, au volant de sa voiture. Les juges d’instruction ont écarté la légitime défense au terme de leur enquête. Le procès s’ouvre vendredi 20 mars.
yes I would like one democracy please
I am skeptical of Ageless Linux's argument that the motivation behind these laws is to make it impossible/expensive for FOSS operating systems to comply. I think the real motivation is to get ahead of the discourse about how Big Tech harms children. They want to claim that they're doing their part to protect children. That would be a great smokescreen to distract from efforts for regulations to make them change their tech to make it not harmful to anyone, regardless of age.

🎉 Support for #Mastodon #quotes in #Akkoma is here!
I am happy to announce that support for Mastodon’s Consent-Respecting Quote Posts (FEP-044f) may finally land in Akkoma.
It means that I can finally quote Mastodon posts like everybody else does!
This was a tough one to implement. Quotes were historically frowned upon by Mastodon developers, even though most of the other Fediverse services have already supported them for years (and the implementation was often as simple as a RE:<url> message).
Mastodon finally implemented quotes after a couple of years of internal discussion, and what came out of that discussion was the FEP-044f specification.
Not a simple RE:<url>, but a 3-way protocol with quote requests, authorizations and withdrawals, to be supported both on a per-profile and per-post basis.
Of course this broke compatibility with most of the other Fediverse software out there that had already relied on its conventions for years, and that’s the reason why you often can’t quote Mastodon posts on other Fediverse services.
The implementation in my PR maintains compatibility with the existing conventions, while implementing an FEP-044f negotiation if the server requires it.
This is probably not the end of this story yet, as frontend support is still missing - users on Mastodon can tweak their quote policy on a per-profile and per-post basis, in Akkoma’s case the policy is public for everything, to be consistent with the existing RE:<url> convention. It can probably be implemented later if there enough demand (but there’s a long tail of at least 4-5 other frontends that all need to be updated).
In the meantime, if you want to already use the new feature, you can build Akkoma from the feature branch on my fork: https://git.fabiomanganiello.com/blacklight/akkoma/src/branch/feature/fep-044f/mastodon-quotes
And this is the PR - feel free to upvote if you want the feature: https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/pulls/1086

A handful of adult and juvenile Eastern Kingbirds entertained us at Blackwater NWR last year, singing and flitting back and forth between the trees along the road between marsh ponds. We finally got a shot of these two against a gorgeous blue sky.

Floppy Disk Punch
ZACK Polanski’s speech as leader of the Green Party in England and Wales today was, at its core, an attempt to reframe British political economy along a moral axis: He highlighted the need for care rather than exploitation. It was not, primarily, a technocratic intervention. It was a narrative one. And that was both its strength and its limitation.
