There is plenty going *wrong* in the world right now. And I feel like I hear about all of it, all the time.
If I may ask; if you're involved in Linux or FOSS communities, what do you see going *right* lately? What things are giving you optimism? Are there any new developments worth following that would encourage people?

I would like to hear from at least some people who said "much better Biden", though. That seems like a hard case to make.

Anyways, I'm sorry to ask hard questions. This is the world we live in.

Trasferimenti di dati UE-USA: è tempo di prepararsi a nuovi problemi in arrivo
La maggior parte dei trasferimenti di dati tra UE e USA si basa sul "Quadro Transatlantico sulla Privacy dei Dati" (TAFPF) o sulle cosiddette "Clausole Contrattuali Tipo" (SCC). Entrambi gli strumenti si basano su leggi statunitensi fragili, regolamenti non vincolanti e una giurisprudenza che è sotto attacco e che probabilmente verrà smantellata nei prossimi mesi. Mentre l'instabilità del sistema legale statunitense diventa innegabile e gli Stati Uniti mostrano evidenti segnali di ostilità nei confronti dell'UE, è tempo di riconsiderare dove fluiscono i nostri dati e per quanto tempo reggerà il "castello di carte" legale costruito dall'UE.

I don't know what this means for US politics. Should Arab Americans and pro-Palestinian allies vote blue no matter who next year?
Should they STFU and avoid putting pressure on Democratic candidates to commit to an arms embargo, recognition of the State of Palestine, or other controversial pro-Palestinian, anti-genocide positions?
Or, conversely, should they use this opportunity and their leverage to pull the party in the direction to actively oppose crimes against humanity?
-
Under these circumstances, if I press myself, I'd say that the genocide has been horrific under both administrations but slightly less intense under Trump.

One big difference between the two is that the Biden Administration stuck to the Oslo consensus on a two state solution within the pre-1967 borders, and opposed at least publicly annexation, expulsion and extermination. The Trump Administration does not oppose any of these crimes in principle, and for a while eradication was Trump's preferred policy choice. The ceasefire agreement from October does not entertain these as an option, though.

Also, there was about 1 week of a ceasefire under Biden, and about 10 weeks in the 2 ceasefires, poorly observed, under Trump.
