My main account is here. For now, I’ll also be using this one: solo@piefed.social, because I really like its feed feature.

Btw I’m a non-binary trans person [they/she/he].

    Thank you for your input. Even tho I find this to be totally faisable, from what the cradle article provides, I cannot verify much:

    • fars looks like it’s an Iranian outlet I personnaly don’t know if I can trust or not, regardless of mbfc
    • the informed sources are not named
    • I didn’t manage to find the documents mentionned*

    Apart from that at some point it mentions that Grossi said in Times of Israel that “We have seen some reports in the press. We haven’t had any official communication about this.”, but it is about Iran stealing Israeli documents.

    Anyways, if you or anyone has more on this, please share.

    Edit: *I mean deducted, or something






  • I have the impression that in order to find a satisfying debunking of the kind, maybe you should look into social darwinism and eugenics. In a way, it’s through these pseudoscientific approaches that the stereotypes reguarding colonial hierarchies were established as ‘scientific’, and created the room for relevant assumptions to take hold of future societies. I say this because I don’t believe there is something more to debunk about the ‘alpha wolf’: it doesn’t even apply to wolfs.

    Of course, one could look back further for relevant patriachical non-sense.

    Anyways, just a few thoughts.



  • The following ideas are not exactly what you ask for, but maybe they are worth considering?

    1. I don’t know what operating system you use, but for me old computers is how I got into linux. Linux Mint is very easy to install and to use, so it prolongs the life of perfectly good machines that are too old to be updated by proprietary software. Personally, I was doing most updates so that the laptop is as functional as possible for the longest time, and I was always doing the secuity ones. A few years back a friend gave me a 2006 laptop and it worked kind of ok with an old version of mint, it was just very slow. This one was given to another friend who didn’t have any.

    2. Depending on where you live there could be a makerspace, or a relevant collective that could use them, or parts of them.

    3. If they are not working anymore, you can use the parts to do crafts: jewleries, pins, fridge magnets, keychains, light fixture, wall decoration, photo frame, book holder are a few possibilities.





  • Coincidentaly, I also posted this article but after reading it a second time, I decided to delete it because I found it was very problematic since it says very contradictory things. If I misunderstood something, please point it out to me.

    Examples of contradictions:

    Over 99% of the almost 1.89m tCO2e estimated […] is attributed to Israel’s aerial bombardment and ground invasion of Gaza.

    […] 50% [of CO2e emissions] were generated by the supply and use of weapons, tanks and other ordnance by the Israeli military (IDF), the study found.

    • And there is this graph claiming that most emissions by sector come from Gaza aid delivery (trucks).




  • Not too sure I understand what you mean. Needs a published paper first, for what?

    This is about a congress. For some reason, I wouldn’t be surprised if a scientist could present early findings of their research in a scientific gathering, meaning before publishing a paper. Just to be clear, I really don’t know what are the general or specific rules in order to participate in a congress, a conference etc, so please correct me if my assumption is wrong.
