A limited-government advocate in Texas persuaded five small towns to incorporate as “liberty cities,” which feature lean governments, little to no taxation and scant regulation. At least two of them struggle to provide basic services. https://www.propublica.org/article/art-martinez-de-vara-dallas-hero-lawsuit?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post #News #Texas #Dallas #Police #Law #Government #USPolitics

Irish Independent : Independent | Home Economics: ‘We didn’t qualify for a bridging loan to downsize – what can we do?’ AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Home Economics: ‘We didn’t qualify for a bridging loan to downsize – what can we do?’ – Sinéad Ryan answers a reader’s property‑finance query about trying to downsize last year. She explains that while the government wants to free up larger, under‑occupied homes for younger families, it has not provided the practical tools—such as accessible bridging loans—to make that possible. Ryan outlines alternative options for couples in this situation, including exploring other financing routes, renegotiating mortgage terms, and assessing the timing of a move, while highlighting the broader challenges the current policy framework poses for downsizers.

The thing that still baffles me is that the people at home in the USA who are all suffering just like the people at home in all other countries, do not shut down the country of the USA, until they have removed their war mongering government from office.That apathy blows me away @brouhaha@mastodon.social #Little #Donny #government #USA #fascism #protest #overthrow #war #mongering

Hyderabad Police have ordered an AI-powered social media monitoring platform called Blura Saga, just days after Telangana introduced its Hate Speech Bill. The platform will track trends, identify misinformation and analyse public sentiment in real time. The bill aims to penalise speech violations on grounds of honour, religion, caste, race, language or gender. https://www.medianama.com/2026/04/223-hate-speech-bill-hyderabad-police-social-media-monitoring-ai-tool/ #India #Tech #Government #AI

RE: https://mstdn.social/@stux/116337052513452953 EN: What is our government still doing on #X? X, formerly #Twitter: it used to be a pretty cool platform, but then it just got worse and worse. X isn’t what it used to be since #Musk took over. Is it really smart for the #Dutch #government to be on X? Should our country’s leadership be complicit in this sick business model of an #American tech billionaire? Time for Deep Dive Thursday! #LeaveX

Wat doet onze overheid nog op #X? X, het voormalige #Twitter: het was ooit best een leuk platform, toen werd het steeds kutter. X is niet meer wat het geweest is, sinds #Musk er de baas is. Is het wel slim dat de #Nederlandse #regering op X zit? Moet het bestuur van ons land meewerken aan dit zieke verdienmodel van een #Amerikaanse techmiljardair? Tijd voor Diep Duik Donderdag!

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿📔🚍🚆🚈🚇 The #UK #Government has launched a new national #transport strategy aimed at making journeys across #England simpler, cheaper and better connected. It will give local leaders powers and funding to expand contactless “tap-and-go” travel across #buses, #trains and #trams, building on systems in cities such as #London and #Nottingham. The plan includes over 40 commitments, alongside measures to keep travel affordable, such as fare caps and fuel duty freezes. A new partnership with Google will provide real-time bus tracking via Google Maps, particularly benefiting rural areas. Other initiatives include a £6 million Peak District pilot to better link buses and trains, and expansion of a national parking platform to simplify payments. The strategy also provides £40 million for local transport technology trials and new guidance to help councils deliver joined-up networks. https://dft-newsroom.prgloo.com/news/better-connected-tap-and-go-travel-across-trains-trams-and-buses-announced-in-governments-new-transport-strategy

Dylan "I read the law and I'm here to implement it" M. Tylor gets up in the morning and decides to write age verification code that he himself calls "hilariously pointless and ineffective", within a week strikes 4 repos of his list, and i bet the Linux Kernel is going to be next (I'm joking... mostly) It's worth noting that the first people who approved the PR on systemd repo are big tech employees - Mircoslop and Redhat/IBM (why I'm i not surprised!!), someone then opened a revert PR, Lennart Poettering (systemd creator) closed it.. thus blocking the removal And this is why you now have Liberated Systemd, a fork of systemd without Age verification.. which IS 'hilariously pointless and ineffective' at saving children when engineers starts reading the law like a specification, this is what you get.. useful idiots. #ageverification #authoritarianism #SaveTheChildren #thinkofthechildren #epstein #surveillance #bigtech #government #privacy #anonymity #humanrights #FreeSoftware #freespeech #ubuntu #linux #fedora #arch #archlinux #agelesslinux #artix #whonix #tails #systemd #opensource #openknowledge #openaccess #cyberlaw #infosec

Il Tempo: Bonelli su perquisione Salis prima di manifestazione No Kings: Governo chiarisca mancato intervento (Agenzia Vista) Roma, 28 marzo 2026 "Ci troviamo di fronte a una cosa enorme, ovvero un parlamentare che viene di fatto svegliato la mattina presto, che la polizia entra nella sua stanza d'albergo, fa tutta una serie di domande — per carità, legittime — ma ci troviamo di fronte a un parlamentare. E quindi c'è una questione enorme che attiene alla tutela delle prerogative costituzionali di un parlamentare, e la ragione per la quale il Governo non è intervenuto a garanzia di queste tutele e se intende intervenire", così Angelo Bonelli alla manifestazione No Kings a Roma. Fonte: Agenzia Vista / Alexander Jakhnagiev Bonelli climbs for Salis’s questioning before No Kings demonstration: Government clarify lack of intervention (Agenzia Vista) Rome, March 28, 2026 “We are facing a huge thing, namely a parliamentarian who is, in effect, woken up in the early morning, the police enter his hotel room, conduct a whole series of questions – let it be said, legitimate – but we are facing a parliamentarian. And therefore there is a huge issue concerning the protection of the constitutional prerogatives of a parliamentarian, and the reason why the Government has not intervened to guarantee these protections and whether it intends to intervene,” said Angelo Bonelli at the No Kings demonstration in Rome.

The #UK #government and the Mayor of #London have announced emergency measures to accelerate housebuilding and unlock stalled sites across the capital. The package includes fast-track planning for schemes with at least 20% affordable housing, temporary relief from developer levies, and planning changes to increase density on suitable land. The Mayor will gain expanded powers to intervene in larger applications. The measures respond to a sharp fall in affordable housing starts due to rising costs, interest rates and planning barriers. Ministers say the plan will help deliver thousands of new homes and support London’s annual target. Progress includes unlocking a major East London development, with plans for Beam Park station helping move the scheme forward. Significant public funding will back delivery. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/emergency-action-to-kickstart-london-housebuilding

In this #HotTake I will get #wild with my #thoughts on a couple of key #topics of #interest here. Starting with #consensual #sexuality as a whole. All forms of #government need to stop making #laws that prohibit how people live their lives as a #group by any #culture #background #race or #creed indeed. Secondly, when it comes to the topic of #gender state very clearly your #biological preference on your own terms. Let #organizations choose what those are, not arbitrarily but actually as such.
