Day 92 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MyNameIsAtticus
Today’s game is Phasmophobia. Me and my Friend decided to celebrate finishing our midterms by playing this.
We found out we actually have turn on the motion sensors, and then i watched my friend stumbler out into the front yard and get choked to death (I took a photo of the ghost while it happening and got some extra cash though! So really who won?).
In another job my friend was bitching me out for taking photos because they’re “useless”. Jokes on him though because the $12 dollars we got after failing to guess right came from my photos of the sink.
Here’s a bonus photo of my friend up in my face while i’m trying to steal a cat photo from the house:

Finanzwende: Bürokratieabbau-Gesetz »entlastet vor allem Steuerhinterzieher«
submitted by https://feddit.org/u/SapphireSphinx
Die Regierung will Bürokratie bremsen – dennoch sollte der Bundesrat gegen das Gesetz stimmen, fordert die Lobbygruppe Finanzwende. In seiner jetzigen Form könnten damit viele Cum-ex-Betrugsfälle nicht aufgeklärt werden.
Mit dem Gesetz zum Bürokratieabbau will die Bundesregierung Unternehmen entlasten, doch die Bürgerbewegung Finanzwende fürchtet schwere Folgen im Kampf gegen milliardenschweren Steuerbetrug. Nun fordert der Verein die Bundesländer auf, bei der Abstimmung im Bundesrat an diesem Freitag Widerstand gegen das Bürokratie-Entlastungsgesetz zu leisten.
[…]
»Der Bundestag hätte das Bürokratie-Entlastungsgesetz mit der Verkürzung der Aufbewahrungsfristen nie verabschieden dürfen – diese Regelung entlastet vor allem Steuerhinterzieher, für die meisten ehrlichen Unternehmen ist die Reduzierung von Bürokratielasten minimal, weil die Belege digital aufbewahrt werden«, kritisiert Schick. Seit Monaten lägen kritische Stellungnahmen aus den Landesfinanzministerien vor.
[…]
Vom neuen Bürokratiegesetz wären Finanzwende zufolge Cum-ex- und Cum-Cum-Fälle betroffen, bei denen noch keine Ermittlungen liefen. Mithilfe von Cum-ex-Deals prellten Banken und andere Investoren den deutschen Staat um geschätzt mindestens zehn Milliarden Euro. Dabei erstatteten Finanzämter unwissentlich Kapitalertragssteuern, die gar nicht gezahlt worden waren. Cum-Cum-Geschäfte gelten als artverwandt und weiter verbreitet, aber als noch weniger aufgeklärt. Der Steuerschaden von Cum-Cum liege konservativ geschätzt bei rund 28,5 Milliarden Euro, nur einen Bruchteil davon habe sich der Fiskus zurückgeholt, heißt es seitens Finanzwende.

Democrats accuse food, beverage companies of ‘profiteering’ through ‘shrinkflation’
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/tomatolung
“Shrinking the size of a product in order to gouge consumers on the price per ounce is not innovation, it is exploitation,” the Democrats https://www.warren.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/warren-dean-press-cocacola-pepsico-and-general-mills-on-shrinkflation-price-gouging-and-tax-dodging
. “Unfortunately, this price gouging is a widespread problem, with corporate profits driving over half of inflation.”
The lawmakers pointed to a recent report by the Institute for Taxation and Economic Policy that found that from 2018 to 2022, Coca-Cola made $13.4 billion but paid an average effective tax rate of 13.5 percent, PepsiCo made $22.4 billion but paid 15 percent and General Mills made $12 billion but paid 14.8 percent.
“No corporation should pay a lower tax rate than working Americans — especially when that same corporation turns around and gouges consumers on the other end through shrinkflation,” the lawmakers said.

Republicans are bad for the economy
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/nifty
All the racist stuff and culture war BS is a distraction. Economists studied the data and found republicans are bad for the economy, which is what everyone who’s lives through their policies would tell you. They help out their wealthy donors, which is why they get the “good for economy” label but that’s a lie and myth.
Many analyses look at which party is best for the economy. A study from the National Bureau of Economic Research found that Democratic presidents since World War II have performed much better than Republicans. On average, Democratic presidents grew the economy by 4.4% each year versus 2.5% for Republicans.
Republicans are just bad at running the country on so many levels.

Iran Military Chief Warns of Broader Aerial Attacks If Israel Responds
submitted by https://lemmy.ml/u/geneva_convenience
Following Operation True Promise II on Tuesday, Maj. Gen. Baqeri stated that Iran exercised self-restraint after the Israeli murder of Hamas political bureau Ismail Haniyeh but ran out of patience following its assassination of Hezbollah’s Secretary General Seyed Hassan Nasrallah and the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps Commander Brigadier General Abbas Nilforoushan.
Iran had targeted military infrastructure including the Mossad intelligence agency, the Nevatim Air Base, Hatzor Air Base, radar installations and groupings of Israeli tanks, despite having the option of launching a much broader attack, he added.
“We had the capability to attack the regime’s economic infrastructure, but we only targeted military bases,” the top general stressed.
“If the Zionist regime, which has reached madness, was not controlled by the United States and Europe, and sought to either continue its atrocities or take action against our territorial integrity and sovereignty, tonight’s operation would be repeated with multiple magnitude and all of their infrastructures would be struck,” he cautioned.

Astro Bot head says "it's difficult to comment on" why Final Fantasy 7's Cloud didn't make a cameo
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/Stopthatgirl7
Astro Bot is stuffed with little robot guys cosplaying as gaming icons from across PlayStation history, but the game’s lead has now opened up about the one essential character that’s missing.
Sure, https://www.gamesradar.com/games/platformer/astro-bot-collectibles-bots-puzzle-pieces-warps/
’s own God of War, Ape Escape, and Shadow of the Colossus - or famous faces from other companies, like Tomb Raider and Crash Bandicoot.
Since the joyous platformer jumped onto store shelves, however, more than a few players have complained that Cloud Strife is missing, in spite of how monumentally important Final Fantasy 7 was on the PS1. In fact, publisher https://www.gamesradar.com/uk/tag/square_enix/
has no presence in the game, with Dragon Quest, Kingdom Hearts, and Nier all omitted, which is particularly strange since the game’s free predecessor Astro’s Playroom at least makes reference to Cloud’s big buster sword.
In an interview with https://www.gamefile.news/p/astro-bot-playstation-icons-shadow-of-the-colossus
, Team Asobi studio head Nicolas Doucet hinted that the development team had eyed up a Cloud cameo that never got approval from Square Enix. “It’s difficult to comment on that,” Doucet said. “We really respect the choice of each publisher.”

Drought reduces Amazon River in Colombia by as much as 90%: report
submitted by https://feddit.uk/u/gytrash
The Amazon River has seen its levels in Colombia reduced by as much as 90 percent, a government agency said Thursday, as South America faces a severe and widespread drought.
The river—the world’s biggest by volume and which also flows through parts of Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Guyana, French Guiana and Suriname—has been hard hit by the drought that has seen wildfires spread across the continent.
“The water level has decreased between 80 and 90 percent in the last three months due to drought caused by climate change,” Colombia’s National Unit for Disaster Risk Management (UNGRD) said in a statement…

Weird visual glitch on KDE
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/dono
Hey everyone,
I’ve been experiencing a really strange visual glitch on KDE Plasma (6.1) running Wayland on Arch Linux, and it happens across various Proton versions and games, though it’s especially frequent in Cyberpunk 2077 and Assassin’s Creed Origins. I’m hoping someone has come across this issue or has some advice on how to fix it!
When opening certain in-game elements like menus, the entire desktop gets covered with a small, dotted grid-like pattern.
This affects the whole screen, not just the game window.
It only ever affects the screen that the game is running on, never my second one.
<img src="https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/f754c14b-690f-455b-b22e-9e081a5d8674.jpeg" alt=""/>
If I move another window (like a browser or file manager) over the game,
that window becomes partially see-through, revealing the game underneath.
https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/405d03a8-297c-4696-a4cc-30dfa24bd1e5.png
After exiting the game, parts of the game image linger on the screen and are, dimly visible as if it’s “burned” in.
https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d6c3fae8-7f74-4d49-8c6e-a276852fc57f.png
The glitch appears and disappears randomly, even while the game is still running, regardless of whether the window is in focus or not.
It mostly happens when opening in game menus or overlays.
Rebooting fixes the issue, but it reappears after playing certain Proton games.
Turning the monitor off and on doesn’t fix it.
While this glitch is active, I sometimes get random brightness flashes, almost like a strobe effect. The flashing stops and starts randomly, as long as the grid pattern is visible.
If I take a screenshot while the glitch is happening, the visual bug (grid pattern and shine-through) does not show up in the screenshot. The image looks perfectly normal. So all pics are shot with my phone camera.
I’ve looked through the Proton and system logs but can’t find anything that stands out to me (though I’m not an expert). I’ve also searched online quite a bit but couldn’t find anything that looked similar to my issue.
I’m running KDE Plasma 6.1 (Wayland) on Arch with nvidia-open-560 drivers.
I’d appreciate any help or ideas on troubleshooting this further!

South Carolina executes first man in 13 years despite new evidence of innocence
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MicroWave

South Carolina executed a man on death row on Friday, days after the key witness for the prosecution came forward to say he https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/19/south-carolina-execution-freddie-owens

, pronounced dead at 6.55pm, according to the Associated Press, which was one of several media witnesses to the execution.
His lawyers had filed emergency motions for a delay this week, citing new testimony suggesting he was wrongfully convicted. But the state supreme court rejected the pleas and Henry McMaster, the Republican governor, announced just before the execution that he would not be granting clemency.

“We can’t let extremists control our lives, our freedoms and our future,” Eilish’s brother and longtime collaborator, Finneas O’Connell, said in the message shared with the “Lunch” singer’s more than 7 million followers on X.
“The choice is clear,” the post said.

‘Clearly chicken you weirdo’: People respond to JD Vance sharing video he claims shows migrants grilling cats
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MicroWave
against foreign-born members of his own constituency, sharing video footage with his 1.9 million social media followers that he claimed showed African migrants in Dayton, Ohio “eating cats” — but instead appears to show nothing more than poultry cooking on an outdoor grill.
“Kamala Harris and her media apparatchiks should be ashamed of themselves,” Vance posted Saturday on X, the social network formerly known as Twitter. “Another ‘debunked’ story that turned out to have merit.”
Vance has claimed, falsely, in recent days that Haitians — who are not Africans — living in Springfield — a town of 58,000 which is not Dayton — were stealing, killing, and consuming their neighbors’ pets.

'I'm living a lie': On the streets of a Aurora, Colorado, pregnant migrants struggle to survive
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/gAlienLifeform
After several days of camping on the street and relieving herself outside, Herrera began to itch uncontrollably with an infection. She worried: Would it imperil her baby?
She was seeing doctors and social workers at a Denver hospital where she planned to give birth because they served everyone, even those without insurance. They were alarmed their pregnant patient was now sleeping outside in the cold.
Days after she was forced to leave the Microtel, Denver paused its policy and allowed homeless immigrants to stay in its shelters through the winter. Denver officials say they visited encampments to urge homeless migrants to come back inside. But they didn’t venture outside the city limits to Aurora.
As Colorado’s third-largest city, Aurora, on Denver’s eastern edge, is a place where officials have turned down requests to help migrants. In February, the Aurora City Council passed a resolution telling other cities and nonprofits not to bring migrants into the community because it “does not currently have the financial capacity to fund new services related to this crisis.” Yet still they come, because of its lower cost of living and Spanish-speaking community.
In fact, former President Donald Trump last week called attention to the city, suggesting a Venezuelan gang had taken over an apartment complex. Authorities say that hasn’t happened.
The doctors treated Herrera’s yeast infection and urged her to sleep at the hospital. It wouldn’t cost anything, they assured her, just as her birth would be covered by emergency Medicaid, a program that extends the health care benefits for poor American families to unauthorized immigrants for labor and delivery.
Herrera refused.
“How,” she asked, “could I sleep in a warm place when my son is cold on the street?”

Deputado alemão propõe bloquear X para conter radicalização – DW – 09/09/2024
submitted by https://lemmy.eco.br/u/NoahLoren
O deputado federal alemão Anton Hofreiter afirmou que plataformas precisam ser responsabilizadas e até bloqueadas em caso de inação contra a disseminação de extremismo nas redes e que isso vale para o X do bilionário Elon Musk – cujo serviço foi bloqueado no Brasil por determinação do STF, após a plataforma desrespeitar ordens judiciais.
“Temos que impedir a disseminação de conteúdo misantrópico e anticonstitucional na internet”, disse o deputado do Partido Verde, em entrevista ao grupo de mídia Funke, publicada no último sábado (07/09).
Hofreiter defendeu que as plataformas de mídia social que se recusarem a cumprir a lei sejam responsabilizadas “e bloqueadas, se necessário”.
“Estado deve tomar medidas duras”
A afirmação do político ambientalista foi feita semanas após o atentado a faca executado por um cidadão sírio que seria ligado ao grupo terrorista “Estado Islâmico” e que deixou três mortos no mês passado em Solingen, oeste da Alemanha, e poucos dias após o tiroteio ocorrido semana passada em frente ao Consulado Geral de Israel em Munique, cujo suspeito era um jovem radical islâmico austríaco de 18 anos que foi morto pela polícia.
Hofreiter afirmou que um dos maiores problemas ligados ao extremismo é radicalização através da internet. “Precisamos atacar a raiz do problema e impedir a radicalização tanto no espaço digital como na sociedade”, acrescentou o político.
As falas de Hofreiter provocaram críticas por parte de perfis da ultradireita alemã na rede X. Algumas contas acusaram o político de tentar “censurar” a rede e “impor uma ditadura”. O tom das reclamações foi similar ao usado por bolsonaristas no Brasil contra o ministro do STF Alexandre de Moraes, que determinou o bloqueio do X de Musk, bilionário que é alinhado politicamente com diversos membros da cena de extrema direita mundial.
No momento o X vem sendo alvo de uma investigação por parte da União Europeia (UE) por suspeita de violação de suas obrigações relativas ao combate à disseminação de conteúdos ilegais e desinformação. O procedimento, aberto em dezembro em 2023, foi a primeira ação aberta contra uma grande plataforma online desde que o bloco implementou a chamada Lei de Serviços Digitais (DSA, na sigla em inglês), em novembro do ano passado.
A DSA reforça a responsabilidade das empresas de internet pela moderação dos conteúdos compartilhados em suas plataformas, exigindo que elas se esforcem mais para combater conteúdo ilegal e seus riscos para a segurança pública.
Agentes no Telegram
Na entrevista publicada sábado, o deputado Hofreiter, que também é presidente do Comitê de Assuntos Europeus do Parlamento alemão também defendeu o uso de “agentes virtuais” para participar de grupos no serviço de mensagens Telegram, a fim de identificar possíveis criminosos.
Em 2022, a ministra do Interior da Alemanha, Nancy Faeser, chegou a cogitar publicamente a possibilidade de bloquear o Telegram no país após a plataforma, que oficialmente tem sede em Dubai, nos Emirados Árabes Unidos, ter ignorado várias tentativas de contato por parte das autoridades do país europeu. À época, o Telegram foi acusado rotineiramente por autoridades alemãs de não se adaptar às exigências da Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz, ou NetzDG (Lei de Fiscalização da Rede, em tradução livre), que regula o combate à propagação de conteúdo extremista nas redes sociais e aplicativos de mensagens.
Criada em 2017, a lei estabelece a obrigação da remoção de conteúdos “claramente ilegais” em até 24 horas, a previsão de multas de até 50 milhões de euros em caso de descumprimento e a instituição de canais de denúncia. O texto mira especialmente redes sociais com mais de 2 milhões de usuários na Alemanha. Em 2021, uma emenda foi adicionada à lei, obrigando as redes a reportarem conteúdo ilegais específicos para a polícia federal alemã, como crimes contra o Estado democrático de direito e à ordem pública e pornografia infantil.

Trump threatens to jail adversaries in escalating rhetoric ahead of pivotal debate
submitted by https://lemmy.ca/u/girlfreddy
With just days to go before his first — and likely only — debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Donald Trump posted a warning on his social media site threatening to jail those “involved in unscrupulous behavior” this election, which he said would be under intense scrutiny.
“WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again,” Trump wrote, again sowing doubt about the integrity of the election, even though cheating is incredibly rare.
“Please beware,” he went on, “that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials. Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.”

Fragen über Weiterbildungen
submitted by https://feddit.org/u/schneewiese
ich überlege eine Weiterbildung als Selbstzahler zu absolvieren, da die Thematik mir gefällt und mein aktueller Job mich nicht komplett überzeugt.
Diese Weiterbildung beim TÜV kostet 3.000 Euro. Dieselbe Weiterbildung bei https://www.wbstraining.de/
kostet 4.000 Euro. Wieso kann es sein, dass der Preisunterschied so krass ist?
Soweit ich weiß, sind alle TÜV-Weiterbildungen staatlich anerkannt. Stimmt das? Auf anderen Akademien liest man z.B., dass 'Weiterbildungen der IHK werden in Deutschland sehr hoch geschätzt (also, nicht anerkannt). Ich nehme an, dass jeder, der eine Weiterbildung absolviert, möchtet, am Ende eine Anerkannte Weiterbildung haben, oder? Oder ist es kein Problem eine nicht anerkannte Weiterbildung zu haben?

Educational apps for children: What parents and educators should look for and ignore
submitted by https://lemmy.ca/u/otter
The article doesn’t make any recommendations, but rather what to look for /avoid.
Who the authors are:
Emma Liptrot; PhD student, Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology, McGill University
Adam Kenneth Dubé; Associate Professor of Learning Sciences, Faculty of Education, McGill University
Relevant sections:
What to ignore
User ratings & reviews:
Popular EduApps in Apple’s and Google’s app stores typically have very positive ratings (above four stars). Yet, experts still raise concerns about their quality and expert-approved apps do not necessarily receive the highest star ratings. Written reviews are rarely more informative. Research shows most reviews simply praise apps rather than explaining specific features. […]
Apple or Google rankings
Educators and parents may visit an app store’s “top charts” lists to find EduApps. Yet, how Apple’s and Google’s algorithms determine which apps “top the charts” is unclear. […]
Recommendations from app review websites
Educators and parents might look to external app review websites like Common Sense Media for recommendations. But research shows many of the apps recommended by these websites still need substantial improvement […]
<img src="https://lemmy.ca/pictrs/image/d0857416-f6e8-4120-97b8-f021a01389d3.avif" alt=""/>
What to look for
Curriculum: What apps teach
At the bare minimum, EduApps must include content that is covered in an established learning program. Yet, many EduApps are what researchers call “educational misfits” because they are only weakly related to education, if at all. Look for apps that clearly state which curriculum their content is based on (for example, a particular provincial curriculum, a supplemental curriculum for learning an Indigenous language) or detail the content (suitable for grades 1–3 math). Don’t bother with an app that doesn’t tell you what it covers.
Learning theory: How apps teach
[…] Look for apps that describe how they teach. Choose ones using approaches that align with your needs.
Scaffolding: How apps support learning
EduApps should include supports that help children build their understanding and accomplish learning goals. These supports (called scaffolding) can include hints or instructions when children get stuck and breaking down complex tasks into smaller chunks or adapting difficulty to match children’s abilities. […]
Feedback: How apps correct learning
If we want children to learn from their mistakes, feedback is essential. Look for apps that give children informative feedback so they know where they went wrong and why.
Educational expertise: Who made the app
Many app developers are not education experts, and their priorities may not align with those of educators and parents. […]

I've just created a GUI for a journal viewer
submitted by https://lemmy.ml/u/ruff
Hi everyone,
I’m excited to share that I’ve started working on a new project called Journal Helper. Its a journal viewer built from scratch using Qt6 and C++. The goal is to provide a fast, visually integrated journal viewer for Linux, particularly for KDE/Plasma users.
While there are existing tools like journal-viewer (https://github.com/mingue/journal-viewer
), which uses WebKit, I found that its GUI doesn’t integrate well with the Qt/Plasma ecosystem. I also wanted to improve performance and create a more seamless visual experience. Therefore, I decided to create a new viewer from scratch that should be quicker and more efficient.
The project is still in its early stages, but I’d love to get more people involved, especially those who are interested in Qt development. As a beginner myself, I’m eager to learn from others and collaborate on making this tool as good as it can be.
How to Get Involved
GitHub Repo: https://github.com/rughinnit/journal-helper-qt
AUR Package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/journal-helper-qt
Any contributions, whether it’s in the form of code, design ideas, or feedback, would be incredibly valuable. If you’re experienced with Qt, C++, or even just interested in contributing, please feel free to fork the repo or reach out.
I’m aware of tools like KJournalDBrowser (https://apps.kde.org/kjournaldbrowser/
), but I had some trouble with installation without using Snap. My goal is to create something simple and accessible for all users.
Looking forward to any thoughts, contributions, or advice you might have!

Day 47 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/MyNameIsAtticus
The game is Sea of Thieves. Me and a friend did a Skeleton Camp, and after getting the treasure from the room in the screenshot above (worth 20k), we were attacked by these guys who rammed us.
They sank our ship before we could get back on, so i spawned the ship back in, raced to pick up my friend. Then i sailed past the outpost, my friend jumped off to sell it while i sailed away as a distraction. Then once all our stuff was sold we hit anchor and attacked them. For a galleon manned by 2 guys, i think we did really well. We still lost but they took on a ton of water and after they sank our ship we went for the old bucket strategy and started filling it with water. It was a lot of fun. Whoever that crew was i owe them thanks for giving us an adventure.

Massachusetts high court strikes down switchblade ban
submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/FireTower
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court held, opens new tab that a 1957 law barring people from possessing spring-release pocketknives commonly known as “switchblades” violated the right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment.
The court reached that conclusion while dismissing a charge filed against David Canjura for unlawfully possessing a switchblade, which Boston police found when responding to a report of an altercation between Canjura and his girlfriend.

It has filters for free, open source, platform type, etc. From my understanding it’s all crowd sourced, so if you disagree with a rating put in a vote! Sharing this in hopes that others find it as useful as I do.
If you know of similar or better resources I would love to hear about them.

Sigourney Weaver confirms she will make her Star Wars debut in The Mandalorian & Grogu movie
submitted by https://feddit.uk/u/Emperor
After previous rumors and speculation, Sigourney Weaver has officially confirmed that she will be appearing in The Mandalorian & Grogu, marking her long-awaited debut in the Star Wars franchise. Details about The Mandalorian & Grogu are still quite sparse, even if new movie footage shown at D23: The Ultimate Disney Event provided audiences with a few new crumbs to go off of. This includes its cast list, which, aside from star Pedro Pascal and Steve Blum (Zeb Orrelios), is practically nonexistent. Now, however, a sci-fi legend has become the next name to join this duo.
Weaver has revealed to Deadline that she’s currently working on The Mandalorian & Grogu. Weaver even “got to meet Grogu for the first time the other day,” which is no doubt a highlight for any actor who’s new to The Mandalorian franchise. The actor doesn’t provide any specific details about her role, but at this stage, she doesn’t need to. Even just knowing someone of her caliber is a part of this upcoming Star Wars movie is an absolute thrill.

Spain rejects bid by Hungarian company Ganz-Mavag to buy Spanish train maker Talgo, citing “insurmountable risks” to public order amid links to Hungarian PM Viktor Orban
submitted by https://feddit.org/u/0x815
Spain has rejected a bid by Hungary’s Ganz-Mavag Europe Zrt. to buy train maker Talgo SA, saying the proposed deal could have compromised its strategic interests and threatened national security.
The offer presented “insurmountable risks” to public order, the Madrid-based government said in a statement Tuesday. The information portion of a dossier connected to the statement was qualified as classified.
[…]
The ruling ends the Hungarian conglomerate’s controversial bid to take control of the Madrid-based train maker amid opposition from the government led by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, which drew attention to its links to Hungary’s nationalist government. Ganz-Mavag is owned by a private equity fund managed by state oil company Mol Nyrt., whose management is allied with Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
The failed deal underscores political tensions within the European Union, which has accused Orban of promoting a culture of cronyism and corruption. For his part the Hungarian premier, whose country currently holds the rotating council presidency of the 27-state bloc, has openly opposed EU aid to Ukraine.
[…]
Spain passed exceptional regulations in the aftermath of the Covid pandemic that allow the government to block takeovers of local corporations by EU-based foreign ones. These rules are set to expire by year’s end, to align with EU regulations which traditionally demand that members give the same treatment to their own companies and to those from other member states.

Harris puts housing at center of economic pitch to US voters
submitted by https://discuss.tchncs.de/u/Bluefalcon
U.S. home prices have risen 50% in the last five years and rents have risen 35%, according to real estate firm Zillow.
“I keep hearing about the suburban woman doesn’t like Trump,” he said at a campaign event in Howell, Michigan last week. “I keep the suburbs safe. I stopped low-income towers from rising right alongside of their house, and I’m keeping the illegal aliens away from the suburbs.”
At an Aug. 16 campaign stop in North Carolina, Harris called for building 3 million more housing units in four years, on top of the 1 million or so built annually by the private sector, through a new tax credit for developers who build homes aimed at first-time homebuyers and a $25,000 tax credit for those buyers.
Trump’s remarks are reminiscent of how red lining was pushed. Same language. John Oliver did a great piece on it.

Harris’s plan is estimated to cost tax payers a lot long term. However, that is what investments in our future will look like.
The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a nonpartisan watchdog group, estimates those policies would cost at least $200 billion over 10 years.

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov is reportedly in custody after being arrested near Paris Saturday evening as he was departing his private jet. The billionaire was apprehended on a warrant related to a preliminary investigation, writes Reuters.
French authorities believe that the platform’s lack of moderation has “allowed criminal activity to go on undeterred on the messaging app.” Durov will go before a judge tonight and could be indicted as early as Sunday, according to sources for TF1 TV (which we read using Google Translate), one of two French outlets cited by Reuters.
Telegram has become a critical resource as people turn to it to find crucial information in places where heavy information censorship is common, such as Russia. But Durov’s…
