@Gordon_Freeman
It really depends on the very magazine. Basically, it's magazines with Ernest as sole moderator where these problems occur. I'd give it a wait.

@bayaz Thank you! This is even worse than I thought! I will try some things out in the near future in order to find a stable way for banning accs.

@bayaz It's you who gave me food for thought, alongside many other moderators! I only found out yesterday how to properly ban spam accs on kbin.social.

I really appreciate all efforts to grow and take care of communities, be it on kbin, on lemmy, or on mbin! Every day, I try to keep learning from other moderators.

Given the sheer lack of moderation tools, many mods do great work. I hope the situation will improve so that moderatoring will become easier.

@Kierunkowy74
Yes, moderators can access the reports tab within the magazine panel. Every report must include some reason, hence moderators see them. Regarding bans: without giving a proper reason, no ban can come into effect.

You can also check the modlogs on kbin and lemmy instances for bans (does not apply to mbin).

@jayrhacker
Would you elaborate on this?

Banning spam accounts on kbin.social is a cumbersome affair.

E.g., today @bayaz tried to ban several spam accounts. But that just did not quite work:

Instead of straight forward banning the accounts responsible for spam, those accs got unbanned.

How come?

If magazine owners ban a spam acc which prior went unreported, the ban button triggers an unban command.

To effectively ban accounts, they must be reported first. Approving the report will trigger a ban. I.e. magazine owners must report the account identified as spam to themselves to enforce a ban.

Therefore, pre-emptive banning of spam accounts does not work on kbin.social.

This is a serious problem which needs to be addressed asap.

 

In a region historically linked more closely with Israel than Palestine, some activists in the Pacific Islands have been speaking up against the status quo, staging rallies and voicing solidarity on social media.

from the interview:

"Yehoshua Radler-Feldman, known by his pseudonym R. Binyamin (1880-1957) was a Galician-born, observant Jew, a prominent figure in modern Hebrew literature and journalism, and, although a committed Zionist himself, a sharp critic of the Zionist settler-colonial repertoire of perceptions and practices. He was one of the prominent figures in the movements that called for the establishment of a joint Jewish-Arab political framework during the British mandatory period and criticized the Zionist alliance with and reliance on the British colonial authorities. He also turned against the secular Zionist notion of an exclusive sovereign that reclaimed Biblical Jewish existence in Palestine, while he adhered to traditional Jewish notions of existence in Palestine, Eretz Yisrael, which enabled him to explore the notion of binational existence. Following the establishment of the state of Israel and the Palestinian Nakba, he founded the journal Ner, which served to voice the demand for the return of the Palestinian refugees, and where various representatives of those Palestinians who remained inside the state of Israel (48 Palestinians) published their articles as well."

from the article:

Acting Director General (DG) of MOH, Dr Posikai Samuel Tapo, revealed that a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) will be signed this Friday to allow the Manila Times University of Philippines to offer nursing courses.

As part of the agreement, the Manila Times University will enter the country with its staff and facilitators to provide access to nursing education while the ministry will provide learning facilities, according to the Acting DG.

He said it is possible that they will be using the Vanuatu College of Nursing Education (VCNE) to run their courses. VCNE is ceasing operation for the next five academic years because it does not meet some standard requirements set by the Vanuatu Qualifications Authority (VQA).

A priority of the MOH is ensuring Vanuatu continues to produce its own nurses despite the closure of VCNE. The ministry is bringing in more Solomon Islands nurses to fill existing critical positions and also securing scholarship opportunities abroad for students who want to pursue studies in nursing.

The Assistant Vice President for Student Recruitment and International Services at the Manila Times University, Annabelle Lesaca, said after an exploratory visit to Vanuatu that they want to introduce their elite medical courses like Bachelor of Science and Nursing, Bachelor of Science and Medical Technology, Bachelor of Science and Pharmacy, and even Doctor of Medicine.

Lesaca said they want to offer nursing courses because Vanuatu needs it.

She said that Philippines’ nurses and doctors are some of the best in the world, they practise medicine in a lot of countries.

“The Philippines educational system is very much focussed on the bachelor degrees. We have very good nurses and doctors. I would like Vanuatu people to try our curriculum...for students who want to pursue the elite courses, I strongly urge they do because Vanuatu needs you,” she said.

The Vanuatu Government is considering the possibility of allowing the Manila Times University of Philippines to run nursing courses at the Vanuatu College of Nursing Education (VCNE) starting from June.

 

Spain’s government says face masks will be mandatory in hospitals and healthcare centers starting Wednesday due to a surge in respiratory illnesses.

 

The Ministry of Health (MOH) plans to recruit nearly 100 qualified nurses from the Solomon Islands this year, as a significant number of these critical positions remain unfilled to meet the growing demand for services.

 

Cheddi Jagan (1918–1997) was the first major politician in the Anglophone Caribbean enraptured by Marxism-Leninism as espoused by the Soviet Union − the beacon for the radical transformation of colonies like his country, British Guiana (Guyana). Moreover, he sought to persuade US President Kennedy, that although this was the essence of his post-colonial vision, it would not vitiate the fundamentals of liberal democracy.

 

There is a need for 100 more doctors in the health system to fill the current shortage in the public health service says Professor Asiata Dr. Satupaitea Viali, the Dean of the Oceania University of Medicine.

 

Here is a call for papers for a special issue of In the Same Sea, a project that “advances the hypothesis that the Lesser Antilles were decisively shaped by inter-island connections that transformed separate islands into a common world of slavery and freedom.” This project, based at the University of Copenhagen, has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program from 1 September 2020 to 31 August 2025.
