@joebradford@jaanislam@ShAsrarRashid@sh_hamzayusuf Do you realize how arrogant it is to assume that we understand your opinions and feelings enough to detect alleged irony in your tweet? Please explain what you meant LOL.
This is causing me to rethink how seriously we should take your Zoya recommendations.
Turkish President Erdoğan recites verses from the Qur’an in a beautiful voice at the Hagia Sophia Mosque 😍
The president has got a nice recitation than most of us😭.
2 U.S. Congressman have introduced the American High Speed Rail Act, seeking $205,000,000,000 in funding to build a nationwide high-speed rail system.
They claim America is behind both Europe and Asia on rail travel and that we need to catch up.
Huge win for gamers and consumer rights!
The California State Assembly just passed AB 1921, the Protect Our Games Act.
It passed on the floor by a vote of 43 to 16.
The bill would force video game companies to give players a heads-up before they shut down the servers for a game.
It would also make them provide a way for people to keep playing afterward, like adding offline mode or letting community servers take over.
Quick recap of what the bill does:
>60-day advance notice before any server shutdown or major service change that would make a game unplayable in its “ordinary use.”
>Companies must then provide a workable solution so players can keep playing, usually an offline mode/patch, community server support, or (in some cases) a full refund.
>Applies to digital games first sold or substantially re-released in California after January 1, 2027.
>Does not affect subscription games, free-to-play titles, or games that are already permanently offline/single-player.
>Enforceable by the Attorney General or district attorneys.
In short: If you buy a game, you should still be able to play it even after the company moves on.
No more “purchase” turning into a rental that expires when the servers die.
reminder that North Korea is one of the few countries that does not recognize the state of Israel as it considers it an “imperialist satellite” of the US
Uthman Ibn Farooq is CONFRONTED on UAE funding Tommy Robinson & anti-Muslim propaganda. He plays dumb and defends the UAE.
"Where did they get that information from? I don't get a single penny from the UAE. When a kaffir tells us something, we need to verify."
We must, then, avoid the “Babel syndrome,” namely the idolatry of profit that sacrifices the weak, a uniformity that neutralizes differences, and the pretense that a single language — even a digital one — can translate everything, including the mystery of the person, into data and performance. This is the risk of dehumanization: building a future that excludes God and reduces the other to a means.
I think this portion of Khalidi’s interview should be getting more attention.
Khalidi’s point is critical: Israel’s movement succeeded through institutional unity and message discipline. Palestinians still lack a unified strategy that can speak to all audiences.
@alijla2021 Palestinian civil society is full of blunders. Can you blame them after the sudden disappearance of the Ottoman Empire and an instant transition to settler colonialism? Palestinians received the harshest crash course on everything from “nationalism” to “international law”.
@MataDoorAhh@HunterWieman This is actually not true at all unfortunately. Good luck coming back in less than 2 years if you leave the US with in progress paperwork.
