Good news for Ukraine.
Since taking office, Trump reduced US Ukraine aid to $0, but in December, Congress authorized a new $400 million aid package for the country.
Always siding with Putin, the Trump regime then blocked that $400 million from leaving Washington. But Wednesday, Republican Mitch McConnell wrote an op-ed in Washington Post asking hard questions about that, and — voila — now the funds have magically been “unblocked”, writes Kyiv Post.

Attal propose de démolir le code du travail sous prétexte de « liberté ». J’ai réalisé cette enquête pour Politis sur ses méthodes de management quand il était Premier ministre. Deux de ses ministres étaient accusées de méthodes toxiques sans réaction de Matignon. Le harcèlement n’a pas de genre et n’a pas de couleur politique mais il n’y a pas de hasard. Et pour rappel, Attal n’a jamais bossé dans le privé https://www.politis.fr/articles/2024/05/gabriel-attal-premier-manager-toxique-de-france/

@downey @lu_leipzig @davidgerard why do you think this is bad?
Hairstyles are very silly. If I had my way we'd all shave it all off and have smooth faces and wear identical wipe clean grey tunics and comfortable matching trainers. And everyone would walk around in uniform lines and no one would speak or look at one another. Or......the total opposite of that. No in-between.

Fedi Hive Mind - AI Free Label
OK, we have a winner. For the last few days we've been discussing a label for creative content and code attested to be free of generative AI (see QP in second reply). Yesterday's poll showed a clear preference for the simplest of the four options.
Seems like what we need next is someone with actual graphics ability to take this rough concept and create usable graphics. If you are interested please read on to the first reply.
Fedi Hive Mind - AI Free Label - Call for graphics support
What we now need is a really well produced graphic that takes account of elements such as font type, circle width, etc.
Then create a package with four versions at multiple resolutions. 1. Borderless 2. Black Border 3. Red Boarder and 4. No Caption, as shown below. All should be separate images with transparent backgrounds.
If anyone wants to take a stab at it that would be great!

#Degoogled Photos? Yes, it's possible. ✅🏞️
The Big Tech does not need to scan & have access to your pictures & videos 👉 use a Google Photos alternative instead.

@VegaHarmonia oh yeah
The jalapeños I find in Boston are indistinguishable from celery.
There is variation in heat levels but I think it’s probably much worse sense they started tweaking their breeding to find milder varieties for the sensitive palates
@ISibboI @news @jonny @photography @renchap Agree that those issues of discovery are big issues with smaller servers today. Couldn’t things like the Fediscovery FASP we mention alleviate those?
@tchambers @news @jonny @photography @renchap I would really be happy if at some point in the future, being on a certain server does not matter anymore, because any advantages of being on that server can be enjoyed from another server as well.
