ministry of science and research in Iran posted a decree to all universities: students who don't wear hijab are not allowed into the universities
This is yet another step up of pressure by the Iranian government to fight with the ever growing defiant population.

#Taliban authorities on Tuesday issued an order to all government and private universities in #Afghanistan to suspend "education of females" until further notice.
The ban comes less than 3 months after thousands of girls and #women sat #university entrance exams.
The #Taliban have banned all Afghan #women from attending #university.
It didn't take long. The bastards slowly showing their disgusting face again.

In theory, I am currently employed by an organization with a strong technical background, a technical university. Sadly, it doesn't very often feel like that. (technical, I mean) Now for example I wanted to log into our administrative system to approve the absence of a few students. Here is the login window:
I had already entered username and password. In addition I need to check the checkbox you see in the background. The text "I'm not a robot" next to it is covered by the beautiful captcha that popped up in response to me checking that box.
I have tried during previous school meetings to explain that a captcha at a login with existing credentials is not actually meaningful, not increasing security, only time wasted for meaningless activities. Luckily I got in after checking the three chimneys. A while ago, when they introduced this system, I made a video once where I tried without success to log in for several minutes, because after I completed a captcha I got a second page with more images and after completing that I got a new captcha and so on and nobody worried about that at all.
As I said, it doesn't always feel very technical around here...

The 'Shitty #Media #Men' List Goes to #Court
source: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/shitty-media-men-lawsuit-moira-donegan-stephen-elliott.html
At the height of the #MeToo #movement, a magazine editor named #MoiraDonegan created a #Google spreadsheet titled “Shitty Media Men” and shared it with other #women in the #industry. For 12 hours, until Donegan took it down, women added the names of men alongside accusations that ranged from “creepy af in the DM’s” to rape. Now, five years later, the list is at the center of one of many Me Too #lawsuits playing out in the courts.
...
When women turn to channels like these, it’s usually because they lack better options. In 1990, a group of women at Brown #University wrote the names of alleged rapists on the walls of women’s bathrooms. The vice-president of university relations described them as “Magic Marker #terrorists,” but at the time, Brown didn’t have a policy to investigate rape accusations.

#IRGC riot unit and security police with help of #Basij #militia, has encircled students at #Sharif Institute of technology in #Tehran, and broken into the #university via the parking place.
There has been reports of many #casualties and 100s of students taken away by regime special forces.
#Reisi has given them the free hand in dealing with protesters, anyone helping them and those recording the #brutality of the police.
Lives of these students are in danger.

My sympathies to the faculty, staff, and students at the University of Idaho. I know it's not y'all who made this decision.
Staff who talk about abortion at University of Idaho can be terminated, face up to 5 years in jail
This whole thing is batshit crazy, as you might assume conclude deductively from the title and a few reasonable axioms.
To wit: In support of the state’s near-total ban on abortion, which took effect in August, the University of Idaho sent a memo to staff last week warning employees not to provide birth control pills or reproductive health services. According to the memo, shared by the Idaho Press, under Idaho’s new law, staff cannot provide emergency contraception except in the case of rape.
Staff was advised against providing contraception or condoms for the purpose of preventing pregnancy and told they would only be able to provide them “for the purpose of helping prevent the spread of STDs but not for purposes of birth control.”
In case you never quite understood what the B52s meant by their lyric, "You're living in your own private Idaho," this is it.
Read the whole article. Idaho's insanity is, if nothing else, extremely impressive as an exercise in taking insanity to its limits.
If you're ever tempted to think, "It couldn't happen in the USA", then I invite you to look at the last six years in the USA. If you're still not convinced, then look at the state of Idaho.

This video presentation just published from the Alternative Propulsion Energy Conference.
https://www.timventura.com - #Dr. #Eamonn #Ansbro discusses UAP orbital tracks and the hypothesis that #Earth is under controlled, autonomous surveillance by UAPs using #faster-than-light #quantum signaling to overcome communications delays in #interstellar #travel.
Dr. Ansbro's team has constructed an experimental quantum superluminal communications system, and he will discuss the development and testing of this system, as well as opportunities for developing communications protocols and methodologies for first contact.
Dr. Eamonn Ansbro has a Masters degree in #Astronomy from University of Western #Sydney, #Australia, and an MPhil and PhD (ABD) degree in Astronomy from the Planetary Space Science Research Institute at #Open #University (UK).
He is Director of Kingsland Observatory and Observatorio de las Animas, Valdepenas de Jaen, #Spain. One of 5 Observatory research centres in astronomy in Ireland. He is a member of a number of prominent UFO and UAP organizations, including the Scientific Coalition for Unidentified Aerospace Phenomena, SETI, the Internetional Aeronautical Federation, and a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society.
Eamonn's team are pioneering the world’s first experimental faster-than-light communications system, applying these tools to SETI. They started operations in 2016. His team are supported by the European Space Agency for future long distant communications with interplanetary probes in real time.
The huge number of recent discoveries of habitable planets in our Milky Way galaxy suggests that intelligent civilizations may be common. Eamonn believes that advanced #ET civilizations are most likely using faster-than-light communications as a common way of transferring information within the #galaxy.
#Capitalism and #health care - the eternal #contradiction ...
The #series "The #Dropout" is about the huge #scandal surrounding #ElizabethHolmes and her startup #Theranos.
More info here: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/122066-the-dropout
In Elizabeth's childhood her parents got into financial difficulties and she had to move because of that. This strengthened her will to become successful and always financially independent. She dropped out of #university to start her medical startup. However, it quickly became clear that her #idea of #blood tests was appealing but not technically feasible. Instead of admitting this to herself, she raised more and more #venture #capital and continued her #research. The research, however, did not go into a finished product but into a #scam to simulate a working product. She justified the #fraud to herself by saying that it would allow her to continue researching and that her research would eventually benefit #society. In the process, she created an environment of non-trust in her #company. Employees were actively prevented from exchanging information and there was a company secret service that monitored and spied on employees. Employees were intimidated and silenced with non-disclosure agreements.
