Hello, reply guys!
“Fascism” is not a generic catch-all for everything awful. It is a word with a meaning. My definition of the word is a form of supremacist ethnonationalism that:
(1) demands the eradication of democracy and the installation of a dictator with total power over both government and industry, forcing all individuals to function first and foremost to advance the power of the state,
(2) designates some particular group(s) of people as naturally inferior Others whose presence contaminates society and is an existential threat to it,
(3) blames these Others for society’s problems and calls for their complete subordination, expulsion, or extermination, a project which demands the total militarization of society.
One can quibble over details there, but’s the rough shape of it. As angry as I am over the militarism and imperialism and environmental ruin and oligarchism that’s marbled throughout US politics — and as long as I’ve been putting my boots on the ground against it! — the definition above does •not• apply to every elected official or political party in US politics. But it •does• apply to the Republican Party in its current form.

Wie die katholische Kirche solche üblen Typen in hohe Ämter bringt und dann noch gegenüber der Gesellschaft schützt, wird mir immer ein Rätsel bleiben.
> Katholischer Pfarrer bezeichnet Angriff auf Berliner CSD als „Signal des Himmels”
Der Typ fordert, dem Manifest des muslimisch geprägten Irrläufers zu folgen:
> "Doch sollen alle, die sich noch Christen nennen, derartige Gräueltaten als ein Signal des Himmels verstehen, als einen Aufruf zur Besinnung und zur Umk…

Does anybody know of a locally hosted, open source, slop-free calculator tool that can do complex unit conversions from algebraic/text input similar to e.g. wolfram alpha, and properly handle SI prefixes etc?
Examples of things I want to be able to do:
1 / (10.3125 GHz) to ps (expected answer 96.97)
(50V / 10K ohms)^2 * 10K ohms to mW (expected answer 250)

Trump has recently clashed with a string of European leaders -- most lately Italy's Giorgia Meloni.
But luckily for NATO he still seems on good terms with Turkey's veteran leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
"Except for the fact that it was being held in Turkey by President Erdogan, I don't think I would have gone to it," Trump said last week.
The summit venue may also appeal: Erdogan's gargantuan marble-lined presidential palace.
