    A brief post on a brief find. I was wondering if anyone thought of using the Fediverse, that nebulous internet thing that includes Mastodon, Lemmy, Peertube, Loops, Pixelfed, Hubzilla, Miskey, Fundwhale and more, and used it as an interface to game software. The main thing I've found so far is this site, games.rerere.org.

    A very simple interface, but maybe

  6. @Bot4Sale @andyjennings One side demanded the keys to the mansion, and the poor could camp in the yard. The other side said “We are better, we are moral, the other side is evil. We will let you camp on the porch, where you will be (mostly) out of the rain.".

    And so the poor burned the mansion to the ground. #ScorchedEarth

  7. No intact buildings left in #Toretsk

    Now the town looks like a desert planet: there are no shelters for civilians or soldiers, & unfortunately, this allows enemy to occupy new areas, but on #ScorchedEarth

    Speaking on national television, Bobovnikova said that Russian soldiers change their military uniforms for civilian clothes to move toward Ukrainian positions, a tactic they use in other embattled settlements as well

    On 🦋 I wrote "my heart bleeds 💔 today's casualties are just the beginning. The bombing in Gaza has destroyed large swathes of fertile land. FYI the Bekka valley is unbelievably so.The #Israelis are determined that these lands will be uninhabitable, for years to come.

    Scorched earth against non-combatants has been banned under the 1977 Geneva Conventions.

    "...for the specific purpose of denying them for their sustenance value to the civilian population or to the adverse Party, whatever the motive, whether in order to starve out civilians, to cause them to move away, or for any other motive."

  11. Israel has sent bulldozers into the Palestinian village of Ramin, 15 km (9.3 miles) east of Tulkarem in the occupied West Bank, and began razing farmland there, reports the Wafa news agency.

    The bulldozed land belongs to dozens of local families.

    In addition, a group of Israeli settlers stormed the area and set fire to more agricultural land.

  12. #Denton,

    I think it's really important to know that your mayor is taking--metaphorically--an uzi torch lighter to committee appointments of all kinds at this point.

  13. Chasiv Yar ‘almost destroyed’ but 679 people still live there

    Before Russia’s full-scale invasion, the town was home to around 12,000 people

    As Russia stepped up attacks in the area, all remaining children were evacuated from Chasiv Yar by the #Ukrainian authorities last year.

    Those left are thought to be mostly elderly residents, unwilling or unable to leave.
