The Right-Wing Campaign to Purge Women From Women’s Sports by MrAlagos in c/world@lemmy.world

Be it by birth, by hormones or whatever, he/she does not qualify as a woman. That’s a fact.

Khelif has been allowed to compete in female boxing by the IOC under their parameters, and by various other tournaments in the past.

That’s also the reason why the opponent of this particular fight, resisted to bump gloves after the fight, which is usually performed, out of rejection for that unfair fight.

This is not the explanation that Angela Carini gave to the public when interviewed. She said that she was overwhelmed by the fight, which she ended by retiring after 46 seconds, and could not think straight. She apologised for it. You are putting words in her mouth.

And history has shown Khelif was NOT allowed to fight agains other female atheltes in the past.

Khelif has took part in female boxing for the majority of her life.

The far right prime minister of Italy attacked Khelif saying that it's an injustice that she was allowed to compete, and far right politicians all over the world have started calling her a man flat out.

Why did the IOC, which has been organising boxing at the Olympics since 2019, come to the opposite conclusion of the IBA when considering Khelif's participation?

All of these claims clash with the reality of so many core open source projects, used by private users and massive corporations alike, that rely on single voluntary developers or super small groups which receive no flowers and no donations.

Not a permanent dock. Docks predate Apple any way.

How it manages to use up more resources than KDE is beyond me.

It can happen when you have to develop all your technology on your own instead of relying on the work of a hundred-million dollar company that does the heavy lifting for you.

What does the founder of GNOME have to do with GNOME in 2022? He worked for Microsoft for 6 years.

‘Hotel on rails’ Midnight Trains announce end of project before it actually started operations by MrAlagos in c/europe@feddit.de
[-] MrAlagos@feddit.it 1 points 5 months ago

Right, Midnight Trains was a French company trying to create a European night train network that centred on France, specifically on Paris. I think they found out the hard way that for various reasons, as they detailed in their blog, France might not be the best country in which to organise such a company; it also might have been simply too ambitious of a project for the current market.

Cigarette-style climate warnings on food could cut meat consumption, study suggests by MrAlagos in c/world@lemmy.world
[-] MrAlagos@feddit.it 16 points 1 year ago

Tens of thousands of people across Europe already don't own anything anymore because of recent calamities caused by climate change, yet people continue to bring in this stupid phrase trying to say that the solution will be worse than what we are already going through because of the many mistakes we made in managing resources, of which food production is one.

Kitagawa's sexual abuse: the other side of the Japanese teen-idol market by MrAlagos in c/world@lemmy.world
[-] MrAlagos@feddit.it 9 points 1 year ago

I would also like to add that another horrible treatment of young men and women involved in the Japanese idol market (I would call it a meat market even) is the immense social pressure from the talent companies, which has been ruled illegal and unconstitutional, to keep romantic relationships secret, to always appear "available" to the fans. Despite the rulings there are still idols who get caught up in "scandals" from time to time and are more or less forced to issue massive apologies or leave their agency.

Sunday at Monza has not sold out and the promoters are offering some high discounts to fill the seats (feddit.it)
submitted 1 year ago by MrAlagos@feddit.it to c/formula1@lemmy.world
4 comments fedilink

Earlier in the week during the promoters' press release for the Italian Grand Pix the president of the company that manages the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza said that they were holding out hopes of selling out the tickets for Sunday; he said that the sales had started strong but had slowed down over the summer. He claimed that there were still tickets available, and he was banking on late-buyers as the weather forecasts had definitely cleared any chances of bad weather. He claimed that 95% of the tickets had been sold.

Initially the claims were met with high scepticism on Twitter and other media, since on that day going over to the ticket selling platforms and checking out the availability showed big numbers of unsold tickets for Friday and Saturday all over the circuit. Even assuming that the claim was referring to Sunday only, though, it seems that it was not truthful: sectors like Roggia and Ascari, priced at 500 € for Sunday, were still mostly empty and available.

On Wednesday 30th of August Monza started promoting a big discount campaign for Roggia and Ascari: prices were sliced from 500 € to 275 €, almost in half. Other tickets were still available throughout the circuit.

On Saturday 2nd of September an e-mail was sent by ACI Sport (the Italian Automobile Club sporting section, the promoter of all national automobile races) to all general admission ticket holders, offering a new "upgrade ticket": for those very same Roggia and Ascari stand seats a 185 € upgrade is offered, meaning that a 110 € general admission weekend pass or a 90 € Sunday ticket can be presented at the ticket booths to get the 185 € tickets for Sunday and get a seat from those ex-500 € seats. Some tickets are also still available in a few other areas.

Ecuador prepares for ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ vote to stop oil drilling by MrAlagos in c/world@lemmy.world

Ecuador is in a very vulnerable and dangerous situation at the moment, with three high profile political homicides in just the past few weeks and an ever increasing influence of drug cartels that are escalating violence, control and homicides to huge levels.
