How could it be I've never heard of the US State Dept's Bureau of Intelligence & Research?
"INR is the Cassandra of American intelligence, and it earned that reputation the hard way."
They succeeded in some famous examples where the CIA failed.
There are great lessons here in keeping organizations small & individuals responsible, though frankly, having worked on spaceflight missions, I've known this little truth for a long time.
Does #Russia have sufficient economic capacity to pay the war damages to Ukraine?
just to demine the fields the expense will be ENORMOUS

Earlier, our boss almost had to carry us out of the museum. We completely forgot about the closing time. Or as one of my colleagues commented: ‘This has simply become our second home!’ 1/2
2/2 Today, our Tower of #Babel was transmitting perfectly again, a colleague guided a Belgian-Dutch-French-German group and everyone understood everything and everyone splendidly.
The United States remains one of only half a dozen U.N. member states that have yet to ratify the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The treaty was signed by President Jimmy Carter in 1977, but no steps toward ratification have ever been taken. Meanwhile, the gap between the rich and the poor in this...
In lists of state parties to globally significant treaties, the United States is often notably absent. Ratification hesitancy is a chronic impairment to international U.S. credibility and influence.
More than 4 months ago, the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court asked me to assist him with evaluating evidence of suspected war crimes & crimes against humanity in #Israel and #Gaza . I agreed and joined a panel of international legal experts to undertake this task. Together we have engaged in an extensive process of evidence review & legal analysis including at the International Criminal Court in The Hague
One of the odd things people say about #Israel is that it's a "Western state" when it's no more a #Western state than Japan and, in my opinion, far less so. For example, #marriage is determined by religious authorities even though The #West stopped doing this over a century ago. #politics#international
Est-ce que ça intéresse des gens de créer une commu spécialement pour les outils libres et les alternatives sur téléphone : lineageOS, GrapheneOS, F-Droid, root ou pas root, applis de sécurité et gestions des permissions, meilleures applis ou extensions contre le pistage, roms custom pour vieux téléphones, comment...
J’ai retrouvé un fil qui devrait sans doute t’intéresser, 37 commentaires sur la question du libre sur le téléphone: jlai.lu/post/1253170
Ce qu’on peut peut-être faire, c’est que tu ouvres un sujet sur le sujet (quelque chose comme “comment gérez-vous votre vie privée sur Android: root, ROM customs, Graphene / Lineage ?”) sur !technologie, pour voir les retours que tu as, et éventuellement créer un mégafil dédié sur cette thématique?
Effectivement la création et surtout la survie des commus sur Jlailu c’est un sujet assez complexe, même si on a 650 membres actifs mensuels sur !france, la plupart n’ont pas de compte local, donc ne voient pas les nouvelles communautés crées, donc il faut en faire la promo, leur convaincre de s’inscrire, fédérer le contenu sur leurs instances, bref…)
Je pense que dans un premier temps on peut peut-être lancer les discussions sur !technologie, et si on voit vraiment que ça prend, éventuellement lancer une communauté dédiée? Mais sur ce sujet précis, j’ai l’impression que c’est devenu assez “stable”:
Si vous avez un Pixel, Graphene est évident
Si vous avez un autre téléphone, vous pouvez envisager Lineage
Je n’ai pas l’impression que les gens changent de ROM super souvent, donc un fil “partage d’expériences” tous les mois pourrait suffire à tenir le nouveau mégafil spécifique dédié à jour
Voilà ma proposition, n’hésite pas si ça te semble complètement farfelu!
PS: Oui on cherche de nouveaux mods pour Jlailu, là il y en a quelques-uns mais certains plus actifs depuis un moment, et personnellement je mod déjà trop de commus, si tu veux donner un coup de main ce serait le bienvenu!
Du 23 au 29 avril prochain, les négociateurs de 175 pays se réunissent au Canada dans le cadre de l’INC4. L’objectif : finaliser un accord contraignant pour mettre fin – à long terme – aux déchets plastiques.
#AtlasNetwork pops up again re far right Christianity, a partnership made in hell.
“In order to understand why people who call themselves #Christians also oppose #government welfare, public schools, gun control & action on #climatechange, I decided to follow the #money.
What I discovered was an unholy alliance between evangelical Christians affiliated with the New Apostolic Reformation’s Seven Mountains strategy and a league of ultra-wealthy libertarians who operate a complex, #international network of #rightwing think-tanks – many of which fall under the umbrella of a group known as the ATLAS NETWORK. https://chrysstevenson.com/tag/atlas-network/
L'humeur de Macron ne s'est pas arrangée à la lecture de la presse internationale: le président a "pété un câble" en lisant notamment le Financial Times, décrivant un président dont la réputation "a pris un coup" avec les 5,5% de déficit public, selon l'un de ses proches. "Cela menace sa crédibilité à l'internationale, pour lui c'est insupportable", poursuit ma source.

Why won’t the U.S. ratify the U.N.’s child rights treaty? (www.washingtonpost.com)
The non-ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child is hypocritical.
