"Trump gave every indication right from the beginning that he was going to be purely #transactional," said Ebenezer Obadare, a senior fellow at the Council on #ForeignRelations. "He's thrown out the old playbook. He's not going through normal diplomatic channels."

…3 Americans had been sentenced to death by a Congolese military court in Sept 2024 for participating in a…failed coup in May last year. Efforts to free them by both the #Biden & #Trump admins had gained little traction.

@collectifission @jeffmcneill @alberto the problem is that #Mozilla failed to use their past "#UncoditionalIncome" or rather absurdly good #Google deal in any meaningful and sustainable way.

Which is why I want @Mozilla / @mozilla_support to hand over #Firefox to @torproject and make #TorBrowser it's #upstream.

  • Obviously the best option would be for #Mozilla to become like a #nonprofit (#eV) or #cooperative (#eG) where they have to actually #audit their finances (in the case of cooperatives, by an accredited external auditor) to enshure they ain't wasting huge amounts of money.

  • Cuz even if everyone there makes $200k a year (obviously they don't) that's still $300M that had to go somewhere.

And even if we assume they blow another $100M on equipment, hosting, sponsorships and other expenses that's still $200M unaccounted for.

  • I'd be willing to pay for a good browser, I really would, but that also entails said #funding to go somewhere useful as per the interest of those funding.

Anything else is a #donation.

Wait, so #NTFS does some weird files-as-objects-with-slots but still untyped binary streams thing?

Damn, with that and #Transactional NTFS, it really *is* the closest thing to have implemented the #database #filesystem I wish for (which would be typed, of course).

Shame that got deprecated. (It'd still be lacking #integrity features too but damn, so close yet so far.)

...it probably feels "great" to go to die in a war where you are fighting so that the capitalist oligarchs and politicians who sent you there and are themselves sitting in safety can profit from the extraction of minerals thanks to your spilled blood...

As #Ukraine considered how to sway a #Trump to continue supporting their country, one strategy was to appeal to Trump’s #transactional nature & offer him a deal — rare earth minerals — for aid.

Now Trump says he’s interested.

Speaking to reporters Monday, Trump said the United States wants Ukrainian rare earth minerals — such as #lithium, #uranium & #titanium — in exchange for the #security assistance that Ukraine depends on for its defense against #Russia’s invasion.

[Перевод] Демистификация транзакций и исключений с помощью Spring

На основе статьи Arpendu Kumar Garai "Demystifying Transactions and Exceptions with Spring", от 31 января 2023 года. Spring Framework обеспечивает обширную поддержку транзакций. Но прежде чем мы углубимся в концепции управления транзакциями, давайте разберемся с основной концепцией транзакции. Транзакция базы данных (СУБД) — это серия из одной или нескольких операций, выполняемых как единая атомарная единица работы. Это означает, что либо все операции в транзакции завершаются успешно, либо ни одна из них не применяется к базе данных. Транзакция может состоять из одной команды, группы команд или любых других действий с базой данных. Любая СУБД, поддерживающая транзакции, должна гарантировать качество ACID для сохранения целостности данных. ACID (от англ. atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability) — набор требований к транзакционной системе, обеспечивающий наиболее надёжную и предсказуемую её работу. Основные требования:

How to use #Trump's performative version of #Christianity to reverse its #weaponization and use #religiousFreedom to fight #Trumpism.

"Trump violates almost every tenet of Christianity (as well as human decency and morality more broadly). He embraces cruelty, violence, greed, avarice, selfishness, revenge, lying, lust and dissembling. In total, Trump appears to worship power and himself instead of #God and #JesusChrist.

Hi #Mastodon I'm still in danger as I have been for months

My #disabled #Latina #indigenous family is still in need of ongoing #MutualAid support

I can't bring you art and music since I was evicted but that doesn't lessen my value as a living human being

If you do expect #transactional community I do sell art and music and there's a world of old creations to consume from me

But if you just care about #harmReduction contribute pls
