That is an insult to toilet paper

No I agree what we call it doesn't change what is happening, but your reply helped me understand your motive for wanting to distinguish what happens in Gaza and what happend in Europe 80 years ago, so thank you for answering.

Main thing I've done is gathering a lot of information, I think there are some groceries I skipped on but I'm not really a person who buys the same out of habit anyway. I've been wanting to switch email providers for a while now, so I've started that process. Same with Google services, deleted a bunch of apps (like Google Maps) and I think the next big thing is try and switch os (or further degoogle android) and dip my toes in Linux again after not using it for 10 years or so.

I left Facebook and Instagram years ago and I feel that really improved my life and I feel the tech changes I'm doing now will do the same.

The UK government said it was taking control of Chinese-owned British Steel on Saturday after rushing an emergency law through parliament to avert the shutdown of the country's last factory that can make steel from scratch.

I like this article being shared with me, so for myself I don't mind it being here but I agree it would fit better at [email protected] or somewhere similar.

Aside from Germany, does anybody know if more countries are siding with South-Africa than before? I feel like every government is just digging into their position and whatever cruel thing happens doesn't really change anything anymore, at least not at the government level.

Do you believe that what Israel is doing in Palastine could be considered a genocide by the ICC aside from your point on the holocaust? Just trying to figure out where you stand in this.

Nice website, apparently with stuff from everywhere so you can check your own country too!

I don't know about these specifically but in general BIC lighters are made to be used until gas runs out, not very friendly to the environment indeed. But to be honest, there are many much worse things if you consider you can use these for a while before you throw them out.

Cool site, thanks for the tip!

A not so cheap brand I have good experiences with is Sandqvist, from Sweden. If you can afford it they offer good quality and they have good values. Y They also list on their website where they source materials and where things are made (mainly south-east Asia and a little bit Europe, nothing in US or China).

Can Canada create a food labeling system similar to this?

It's confusing trying to buy Canadian with all the variations of made in, assembled in, grown in, packaged in, etc. Can we copy the Australian food labeling system, perhaps replacing the kangeroo with a maple leaf? I find this much clearer.

President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on Tuesday the capture of two Chinese nationals reportedly fighting for the Russian Armed Forces in the first update of its kind.

Zelensky, in a Telegram update that includes the interrogation of one of the Chinese men captured, said the two soldiers were captured in Ukraine’s Donetsk region with their personal documents, including bank cards.

Zelensky said Kyiv is aware of more Chinese nationals fighting for Moscow, adding that Ukrainian authorities are working to establish the situation.

“We have information that there are significantly more Chinese citizens in the occupier’s units than two. We are currently clarifying all the facts. Intelligence, the [Security Service of Ukraine] SBU, and the relevant units of the Armed Forces are working,” Zelensky said, adding that the two men are under the SBU’s custody

The Europol-supported operation led to 79 arrests and 1.400 identifications

Kidflix, one of the largest paedophile platforms in the world, has been shut down in an international operation against child sexual exploitation. The investigation was supported by Europol and led by the State Criminal Police of Bavaria (Bayerisches Landeskriminalamt) and the Bavarian Central Office for the Prosecution of Cybercrime (ZCB). Over 35 countries worldwide participated in the operation.

A total of 1.8 million users worldwide logged on to the platform between April 2022 and March 2025. On 11 March 2025, the server, which contained around 72 000 videos at the time, was seized by German and Dutch authorities.

The investigation resulted in the identification of almost 1 400 suspects worldwide. So far, 79 of these individuals have been arrested for sharing and distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Some of those arrested not only uploaded and watched videos but also abused children. The investigation is ongoing.
