Andy Bell had heard companies were forcing employees to use AI tools so spoke to developers to determine if that was the case and learned some horrors in the process.

👉 All members of the United Nations Security Council, except the United States, jointly backed the IPC’s declaration that famine in #Gaza is a “man-made crisis” on Wednesday, despite Israel and the #USA attacking the findings.

Journalist’s final images show the Gaza hospital stairwell where she was killed by an Israeli strike
The last photos taken by #MariamDagga show the damaged stairwell outside a hospital in the Gaza Strip where she would be killed by an Israeli strike moments later.
Dagga, a visual journalist who freelanced for Associated Press, was among 22 people, including five reporters, killed Monday when Israeli forces struck Nasser Hospital twice in quick succession.
Algeria’s ambassador to the United Nations, his voice breaking and on the verge of tears, read a letter Wednesday to the U.N. Security Council addressed to Dagga’s 13-year-old son, Gaith, who left #Gaza at the start of the war to live with his father in the United Arab Emirates.
“Ghaith. You are the heart and soul of your mother,” Bendjama quoted Dagga as writing. “When I die, I want you to pray for me, not to cry for me.”

Croatian President Zoran Milanovic on Wednesday called on the country’s government to initiate the parliamentary process for recognizing Palestine as a sovereign and independent state.
“Croatia should recognize Palestine as a step toward ending the war and the human catastrophe in Gaza. Recognizing the rights of the Palestinian people to their own state is the only way to establish lasting peace in the Middle East,” Milanovic said.

In Greece, neo-Nazis like the Spartans posed as “helpers” shopping for the elderly, escorting voters then entered into parliament.
Now UK extremists are copying the same playbook. They call it “concierge nationalism,” with street patrols, escort apps and fake charities that sell hate as care.
Don't be fooled. This isn’t protection. It’s fascism repackaged.

Mastodon FeedDear Lazyweb,
Can someone tell me how the fix the problem that when I try to print any of my flyer pages in Safari (e.g. <https://www.dnalounge.com/flyers/2025/08/29d.html>) it shows up blank in the print dialog? Most of the time, hitting cancel and then print again makes it show up, but not always, so something's racing. I even tried perversions like adding a busy-wait in window.onbeforeprint.
The problem does not seem to occur in Chrome and Firefox.
