Technical # Programming * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § New Releases⠀➾ # ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ EasyOS_Kirkstone-series_version_5.2.2 released⠀⇛ Easy 5.2.1 was released on April 4: Eleven days later, we have 5.2.2. The big news is the Flatpak Installer, nicknamed “Flapi”. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Arduino ☛ Is_it_too_loud?_This_Arduino_device_will_do_the shushing_for_you⠀⇛ Whether it is a library, conference room, school classroom, or some other public space, we all require peace and quiet to work sometimes, but achieving it can be a challenge. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Kicad_Autorouting_Made_Easy⠀⇛ One of the most laborious tasks in PCB layout is the routing. Autorouting isn’t always perfect, but it is nice to have the option, even if you only use it to get started and then hand-tune the resulting board. Unfortunately, recent versions of Kicad have dropped support for autorouting. You can, however, still use Freerouting and the video from [Mr. T] below shows you how to get started. * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ # ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ curl_speaks_HTTP/2_with_proxy⠀⇛ This version of HTTP changed a lot of previous presumptions when it comes to transfers, which introduced quite a few challenges to HTTP stack authors all of the world. One of them being that with version 2 there can be more than one transfer using the same connection where as up to that point we had always just had one transfer per connection. # § Chromium⠀➾ # ⚓ Security Week ☛ Google_Warns_of_New_Chrome_Zero-Day Attack⠀⇛ The high-severity vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2023-2033, is described as a type confusion in the Chrome V8 JavaScript engine. “Google is aware that an exploit for CVE- 2023-2033 exists in the wild,” the company said in a barebones advisory that credits Clément Lecigne of Google’s Threat Analysis Group for reporting the issue. o § SaaS/Back End/Databases⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] Peter Eisentraut ☛ How_collation_works⠀⇛ In this blog post, and probably one or more following ones, I want to discuss how collations in PostgreSQL work internally. See also this previous post about the work we have done for collations in PostgreSQL 15. And there is even more coming together in PostgreSQL 16 right now, which we will talk about in the future. # ⚓ SQL_Maxis:_Why_We_Ditched_RabbitMQ_And_Replaced_It_With_A Postgres_Queue⠀⇛ We recently ripped out RabbitMQ from our system and replaced it with a queue built on top of our Postgres db and written in SQL. The change took half a day to implement + test, and had a net delta of -580 LOC. Much more importantly, it drastically improved the reliability and resiliency of our system. This is a writeup of that change, the rationale behind it, and how we did it. Note: this is not an indictment against RabbitMQ or other queuing systems. It’s quite possible (likely, really) that we were holding it wrong. If anything, it’s a push to keep things simple. And, of course, a very biased reminder that SQL is unbelievably powerful. In fact, it often really is all you need. Do we dream of a world where everything is SQL? Maybe. # ⚓ PlanetScale ☛ How_does_database_sharding_work?⠀⇛ If you’ve used Google or YouTube, you’ve probably accessed sharded data. Sharding helps you scale out your database by storing partitions of your data across multiple servers instead of putting everything on a single giant one. This post will walk through how database sharding works, how to think about implementing your own sharded database, and some useful tools out there that can help, with a particular focus on MySQL and Postgres. # ⚓ OpenSource.com ☛ A_distributed_database_load-balancing architecture_with_ShardingSphere⠀⇛ Apache ShardingSphere is a distributed database ecosystem that transforms any database into a distributed database and enhances it with data sharding, elastic scaling, encryption, and other capabilities. In this article, I demonstrate how to build a distributed database load-balancing architecture based on ShardingSphere and the impact of introducing load balancing. # ⚓ Peter Eisentraut ☛ How_collation_of_punctuation_and whitespace_works⠀⇛ First, let’s think about what we might like to happen. Maybe we want to treat punctuation and whitespace characters just like other characters. They sort in some relative location, and that’s it. Or maybe we want to mostly ignore these characters for sorting. Both of these are valid choices, and where people get upset is mainly when they expected one and get the other. In fact, Unicode allows both of these choices (and more!), and the implementation has to pick one or make users select one. (To keep it simple, I’ll just write “Unicode” in this article to mean one of the various standards that affect collation of Unicode characters. See the previous article for details.) o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ Jay Little ☛ Low_Code_Software_Development_Is_A_Lie⠀⇛ Perhaps I’m getting a bit too old and loose lipped for my own good, but the truth is that creating software for other people is exceedingly difficult. Contrary to the opinions of non-practitioners (aka non-coders), this difficulty is not the fault of coding languages, tools and paradigms. It is actually the result of clients and developers not taking the time to understand the root causes of the problems they want to solve and not designing a solution around the conclusions you’d draw from that process. # ⚓ Bryan Lunduke ☛ Funny_Programming_Pictures_part_XXIX⠀⇛ Doofenshmirtz, Excel, & ChatGPT. Oh, my. # ⚓ Daniel Lemire ☛ Interfaces_are_not_free_in_Go⠀⇛ Let us illustrate. Sometimes we like to ‘iterate’ through a set of values… we often call the software implementation of this concept an iterator. You can specify an iterator as an interface in Go… and once you have that, you can define function like the a function to count the number of elements: [...] # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ They’re_Selling_Nudes_of_Imaginary_Women_on Reddit_—_and_It’s_Working⠀⇛ “For those who aren’t aware, I’m going to kill your fantasy,” the comment reads. “This is literally an AI creation, if you’ve worked with AI image models and making your own long enough, you can 10000% tell. Sorry to ruin the surprise, I guess.” Claudia is, indeed, an AI-generated creation, who has posted her (AI-generated) lewd photos on other subreddits, including r/normalnudes and r/amihot. She’s the brainchild of two computer science students who tell Rolling Stone they essentially made up the account as a joke, after coming across a post on Reddit from a guy who made $500 catfishing users with photos of real women. They made about $100 selling her nudes until other redditors called out the account, though they continue to post lewds on other subreddits. # ⚓ Software Is Crap ☛ The_world_is_on_fire,_but_not_because_of C23⠀⇛ The premise seems to be that, since undefined behaviour is bad, any new way of invoking undefined behaviour is also bad. While it’s true that undefined behaviour can cause huge problems, and that this has been a sore point with C for some time, the complaint here is fallacious: the whole point of this particular annotation is to allow the programmer to specify their intent that a certain path be unreachable, as opposed to the more problematic scenario where a compiler determines code is unreachable because a necessarily-preceding (“dominating”) instruction would necessarily have undefined behaviour. In other words it better allows the compiler to distinguish between cases where the programmer has made particular assumptions versus when they have unwittingly invoked undefined behaviour in certain conditions. This is spelled out in the proposal for the feature: [...] # ⚓ Seth Michael Larson ☛ Google_Assured_OSS⠀⇛ Live the “pushing left on security” mantra to the fullest and partner with maintainers and compensate them for their efforts. Not partnering with maintainers leaves many actual end-to-end security practices on the table that could get delivered to all open source consumers. # ⚓ Thorsten Ball ☛ Two_types_of_software_engineers⠀⇛ Here’s something I’ve been kicking around in my head for a few weeks, a tiny theory I have of how people think about software engineering. According to my theory, there are two types of software engineers: Type 1, when presented with a problem, thinks: “easy, people can just do X.” Type 2, when presented with the same problem, thinks: “very hard, because it requires people to do X.” # ⚓ Numbers_To_Know_For_Managing_(Software_Teams)⠀⇛ Learning how to manage is a long race – it takes many years and each lap offers new learnings. Along the way, anchors emerge that can help orient a manager when a number of other variables are in flux. # ⚓ Waleed Khan ☛ Quickly_formatting_a_stack_of_commits⠀⇛ A certain category of developer uses Git with a “patch stack” workflow, in which they accumulate a sequence of small, individually-reviewable commits that together implement a large change. In these cases, it’s oftentimes useful to run linters or formatters on each commit in the stack and apply the results. However, this can be tedious, and a naive approach can cause needless merge conflicts. (One workaround is to run formatters on each commit in the stack backwards.) git-branchless’s git test command offers a solution to quickly run formatters, etc., on an entire stack of commits without causing merge conflicts. Additionally, it can be performed in parallel, and it caches results so that reformats of the same commits are skipped. You can see the announcement post or the documentation for git test. # § Java⠀➾ # ⚓ Making_most_of_Java:_Features_that_you_should_use_as a_Java_developer⠀⇛ Java is a popular programming language used for developing a wide range of applications. From simple command-line programs to enterprise-level applications, Java is widely used for its simplicity, reliability, and security. This blog post will cover 12 Java programming features with examples that will help you write more efficient and scalable code. o § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ # ⚓ Terence Eden ☛ Stop_treating_eBooks_like_paper_books⠀⇛ Books are magical. And, in my humble opinion, eBooks are better than legacy paper books. I can boost the font size of my eBook rather than having to buy an expensive large-print version. I can navigate by searching, or by semantic features, rather than grubbing around with page numbers. And I can choose to follow a footnote or ignore it as the whim strikes me. But all that requires the publishers actually understanding how to take advantage of the format. * § Leftovers⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Need_To_Pick_Objects_Out_Of_Images?_Segment_Anything Does_Exactly_That⠀⇛ Segment Anything, recently released by Facebook Research, does something that most people who have dabbled in computer vision have found daunting: reliably figure out which pixels in an image belong to an object. Making that easier is the goal of the Segment Anything Model (SAM), just released under the Apache 2.0 license. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Fail_Of_The_Week:_Car_Starter_Motors_Aren’t_The_Best Fit_For_EBikes⠀⇛ A lot of what real engineering is all about is designing to the limits of your materials, with a healthy margin for error. On the other hand, seat-of-the-pants engineering often takes the opposite tack — working with the materials you have and finding their limits after the fact. While the former is more rigorous and better suited to anything where life and limb are on the line, there’s something to be said for the flexibility that informal engineering offers. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Building_An_Electron_Microscope_For_Research⠀⇛ There are a lot of situations where a research group may turn to an electron microscope to get information about whatever system they might be studying. Assessing the structure of a virus or protein, analyzing the morphology of a new nanoparticle, or examining the layout of a semiconductor all might require the use of one of these devices. But if your research involves the electron microscope itself, you might be a little more reluctant to tear down these expensive devices to take a look behind the curtain as the costs to do this for more than a few could quickly get out of hand. That’s why this research group has created their own electron detector. o ⚓ India Times ☛ US_says_Photoshop_maker_Adobe_to_pay_$3_million_to settle_kickback_allegations⠀⇛ The settlement resolves allegations that Adobe made improper payments under its Solution Partner program to companies that had a contractual or other relationship with the government that allowed them to influence federal purchases of Adobe software, the Justice Department said. Between January 2011 and December 2020, Adobe allegedly paid the companies a percentage of the purchase price of the software, according to the Justice Department. o ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ How_About_a_Parents’_Bill_of_Rights_for_Those_of Us_Who_Aren’t_Far-Right_Culture_Warriors⠀⇛ There’s no question that parenting has gotten harder in this country. o ⚓ The Nation ☛ Justins⠀⇛ o ⚓ The Nation ☛ SMOKE⠀⇛ o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Chris ☛ What_Is_Probability?⠀⇛ This article is a short summary of the first handful of chapters of de Finetti’s classic treatise on the fundamentals of probability. The book itself contains much more interesting detail, proofs, edge cases, and arguments. Read it if this is your thing! The quotes in this article are from that book, but I have taken the liberty of editing them for conciseness. I have strived very hard to retain the spirit. of the message. # ⚓ Hubble_Sees_Possible_Runaway_Black_Hole_Creating_a_Trail_of Stars⠀⇛ The universe is so capricious that even the slightest things that might go unnoticed could have profound implications. That’s what happened to Yale astronomer Pieter van Dokkum when he was looking through Hubble Space Telescope images and noticed a suspected blemish that looked like a scratch on photographic film. For Hubble’s electronic cameras, cosmic rays skimming along the detector look like “scratches.” But once spectroscopy was done on the oddball streak van Dokkum realized it was really a 200,000-light-year-long chain of young blue stars located over halfway across the universe! van Dokkum and his colleagues believe that it stretches between a runaway monster back hole and the galaxy it was ejected from. The black hole must be compressing gas along its wake, which condenses to form stars. Nothing like it has ever been seen anywhere else in the universe before. o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Rutgers_on_Strike:_Meet_One_of_Thousands_of Profs_&_Grad_Workers_Demanding_Better_Pay,_Job_Security⠀⇛ Faculty at the state-run Rutgers University in New Jersey have entered their fifth day of a historic strike — the first faculty strike in the school’s 257-year history. Organizers of three unions, representing more than 9,000 professors, lecturers and graduate assistants, are demanding increased pay and better job security, especially for poorly paid graduate workers and adjunct faculty. We get an update from Donna Murch, an associate professor of history at Rutgers University and New Brunswick chapter president of Rutgers AAUP-AFT, one of the academic workers’ unions on strike. # ⚓ [Repeat] Vice Media Group ☛ GOP_Mega-donor_Who_Bought_The Constitution_Now_Owns_Harvard’s_Grad_School⠀⇛ A Harvard spokesperson did not comment when reached by Motherboard, but sent a press release from the university saying that Griffin’s donation to the Faculty of Arts and Sciences “comes at a moment of opportunity as the School undertakes a broad strategic planning process focused on delivering a forward-looking vision for excellence in graduate education, graduate education, faculty support and development, and organization of academic communities.” The donation also comes to Harvard at a moment when Republican-controlled states are taking over public school districts, voting to defund public libraries, and introducing legislation that criminalizes educators and librarians for providing access to books related to race, sex, and gender. # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Nigeria:_Staying_out_of_school_to_avoid kidnappings⠀⇛ “Before the banditry, we lived normal lives like any other person. But then they first raided the neighbouring villages before ours. We were displaced and since then, there has been no opportunity for us to return to school. Our teachers have also deserted the school for fear of being kidnapped,” Salisu told DW. # ⚓ Lusaka ZM ☛ Zambia_Committed_to_Achieving_Universal_Access to_Education⠀⇛ During the General Debate at the 56th Session of the Commission on Population and Development at the UN Headquarters in New York, Acting Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Finance and National Planning, Ms Lois Mulube, told participants that the Zambian Government was committed to the total implementation of the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) Programme of Action in the quest of achieving the internationally agreed goals, especially in the education sector. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Ariadne Conill ☛ Writing_portable_ARM64_assembly⠀⇛ The other main thing to watch out for is Apple’s custom mnemonics for NEON. In order to make writing NEON code less cumbersome, Apple introduced a set of mnemonics that allow simplification of specifying NEON instructions. For example, if you are targeting Apple devices only, you might write an exclusive-or NEON instruction like so: [...] # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Linux_kernel_logic_allowed_Spectre_attack on_‘major_cloud_provider’ [Ed: Hardware issue, not a Linux issue]⠀⇛ The moniker Spectre [PDF] describes a set of vulnerabilities that abuse speculative execution, a processor performance optimization in which potential instructions are executed in advance to save time. It’s timing, however, that animates Spectre. Spectre v2 – the variant implicated in this particular vulnerability – relies on timing side- channels to measure the misprediction rates of indirect branch prediction in order to infer the contents of protected memory. That’s far from optimal in a cloud environment with shared hardware. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Hackaday_Podcast_214:_Jet_Engine_Hair_Dryer, Comic_Sans_Type_Balls,_And_Belief_In_Graphene⠀⇛ This week, Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams and Contributor Emeritus Kristina Panos gushed about all the best hacks of the previous week. But first, a contest! That’s right — hot on the heels of the Low Power Challenge comes the Op Amp Challenge, sponsored by Digi-Key. You have between now and June 6th to dip your toes into the warm waters of analog and show us what you’ve got. Will it be a musical hack? Will you seek high analog precision? We can’t wait to see. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Retro_Gadgets:_The_1983_Pocket_Oscilloscope⠀⇛ In the 1980s, an oscilloscope was typically a bulky affair with a large CRT, and a heavy power supply. So it probably grabbed a lot of attention in 1983 when Calvert Instruments Incorporated ran an ad in magazines like Radio Electronics. The ad touted a 5 MHz scope that was pocket-sized and weighed 4 ounces. The ad proudly proclaimed: CRT oscilloscopes just became obsolete! # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ 3D_Printed_Artificial_Nose_Is_Totally_Vegan⠀⇛ Prosthetics are complicated, highly personal things. They must often be crafted and customized precisely to suit the individual. Additive manufacturing is proving a useful tool in this arena, as demonstrated by a new 3D printed nose design developed at Swansea University. And a bonus? It’s vegan, too! o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Foreign Policy ☛ U.S.-Mexican_Relations_Fray_Over Fentanyl⠀⇛ Fentanyl has plagued the United States as a public health calamity. But now it’s on the brink of becoming a full-fledged diplomatic crisis between the United States and Mexico while also igniting heated new political rows between the Biden administration and Capitol Hill. # ⚓ [Repeat] Vice Media Group ☛ Arkansas_Makes_It_Illegal_For Minors_to_Be_on_Social_Media_Without_Parental_Consent⠀⇛ It’s not overtly clear how this bill will help, given that it is chock full of loopholes. The bill states that it does not apply to “news or public interest broadcast, website video, report, or event,” any news-gathering organizations, any cloud service providers, or internet service providers who provide links to social media platforms. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Arkansas_Governor_Signs_Social_Media_Bill_Into Law,_Even_As_Bill’s_Own_Sponsor_Appears_Confused_About_Who_It Covers⠀⇛ What could possibly go wrong? Earlier this week we wrote about an Arkansas bill, SB396, which was modeled after Utah’s recent unconstitutional social media bill, and tries to ban kids from social media. Except, as we noted, it appeared to explicitly exempt pretty much all of social media, except for maybe Facebook and Twitter. The wording is so unclear, but also, oddly specific. For example, it says it exempts: # ⚓ Rlang ☛ Detecting_heart_murmurs_from_time_series_data_in R⠀⇛ Time series data often contains information that’s not easily seen when simply visualising the data. We can uncover these hidden features using time series analysis, and use them to classify time series that exhibit similar features. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Medicaid_Cutoffs_to_Poor_a_Truly_American Horror_Story⠀⇛ The biggest threat to Americans today isn’t from a foreign power. It’s from a long-running war on the poor by out of touch politicians and their Wall Street backers. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Plan_to_Dump_Wastewater_From_Indian_Point Into_Hudson_River_Paused_After_Local_Outcry⠀⇛ Clean water and public health advocates in New York’s Hudson Valley applauded Thursday as the energy technology company Holtec International announced it will not move ahead with plans to dump wastewater next month from the former Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant, following intense pressure from local communities and state lawmakers. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ UnitedHealth_Touts_Growing_Profits_After Lobbying_Against_Medicare_Advantage_Crackdown⠀⇛ The chief executive of UnitedHealth Group told investors Friday that he “appreciates” the Biden administration’s decision to more slowly implement its crackdown on overbilling in Medicare Advantage, a privately run, government-funded program that the Minnesota-based insurance behemoth touted as a key profit driver in its newly released first quarter earnings report. # ⚓ How_antivaxxers_“think”_(that_vaccine_advocates_think)⠀⇛ I’ve written many times before about how antivaccine beliefs are rooted in what I like to call the central conspiracy theory of the antivaccine movement, which should not surprise anyone given that, when you boil any form of science denial down to its essence, all science denial is a conspiracy theory. In the case of antivaxxers, that conspiracy theory goes something like this. Vaccines are harmful/don’t work, but “They” (the CDC, medical profession, government, pharma, insurance companies, etc.) are hiding The Truth—with a capital T!—from you. However, antivaxxers are among the enlightened few who know The Truth—with a capital T!—and, as a result, have become brave maverick warriors for The Truth—with a capital T!—against the nefarious forces arrayed to defend the conspiracy. Once you understand this central premise, the antivaccine movement becomes a lot easier to understand as a movement; in brief, the antivaccine movement is really no different than QAnon, which, unsurprisingly, features a similar conspiracy theory, only about the evil elites. Understanding this central premise will lead you to understand as well articles like one by Alex Berenson (a.k.a. “the pandemic’s wrongest man“) How vaccine advocates think, to which he helpfully added the blurb: # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ TikTok_Is_Obsessed_With_Water._Experts_Are Concerned⠀⇛ WaterTok “has the element of danger because it is a classic eating disorder behavior that happens,” says Jillian Lampert, chief strategy officer for the Emily Program and Veritas Collaborative, which offers comprehensive eating-disorder treatment programs in nine states. “In their fear and anxiety about eating and weight, they try to minimize the calories that come in.” Lampert refers to the practice of filling up on fluids as a means of ignoring hunger cues as “long-term, old-school eating disorder behavior.” # ⚓ NPR ☛ Montana_becomes_1st_state_to_approve_a_full_ban_of TikTok⠀⇛ The bill makes it illegal to download TikTok in the state, with penalties of up to $10,000 a day for any entity, such as Apple and Google’s app stores or TikTok itself, that makes the popular video- streaming app available. If enacted, the ban in the state would not start until January 2024. # ⚓ Hollywood Reporter ☛ TikTok_Set_to_Be_Banned_In_Montana, Which_Would_Be_First_State_to_Take_Action⠀⇛ The looming legal battle can be seen as a test case of obstacles the government might face if it passes a national TikTok ban. In addition to being difficult to enforce as it requires cooperation from third-party companies across the digital economy, the legislation likely implicates First Amendment concerns. Courts have blocked previous attempts in 2020 to block TikTok. # ⚓ NBC ☛ Montana_on_cusp_of_becoming_first_state_to_block TikTok_downloads⠀⇛ The bill referred to concerns over data safety, surveillance from the Chinese government and minors engaging in “dangerous activities” as a result of TikTok use including “cooking chicken in NyQuil” and “attempting to climb stacks of milkcrates.” These activities were part of so-called challenges that critics say were popularized by users on the app. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ A_Plan_to_Ban_TikTok_in_Montana_Is_a Preview_for_the_Rest_of_the_Country⠀⇛ But skepticism of TikTok ran deep at the hearing. Keith Krach, a former corporate executive behind some of the Trump administration’s efforts to marginalize Chinese companies, testified that he wouldn’t let his 11-year-old twins near the app. He said it was “disguised as candy, but it’s really cocaine.” # ⚓ Neritam ☛ GM_mustard_will_obliterate_honey_bees⠀⇛ Over 100 apiculturists, or beekeepers, gathered at the ICAR-Mustard Research Institute in Bharatpur, Rajasthan, to protest against the Central government’s decision on giving environmental clearance for GM Mustard. Farmers from Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Haryana raised concerns and submitted requests to the Central government November 4, 2022 demanding withdrawal of the same. # ⚓ The Nation ☛ The_Fifth_Circuit’s_Abortion_Pill_Ruling_Was All_About_Sowing_Confusion⠀⇛ Judges are political actors. They want to be treated like apolitical legal scholars, merely divining legal principles from above the political fray, but most often their decisions cannot be understood absent the context of the political and cultural battles their rulings are a part of. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Lawmakers_in_US_state_of_Montana_vote_to_ban TikTok⠀⇛ The bill, known as SB 419, would prohibit mobile app stores from offering TikTok for download to users in Montana. The Montana House voted 54-43 to approve the ban. TikTok as well as Apple and Google, which operate mobile app stores, would face fines if they violate the ban, should the bill become law. # ⚓ ABC ☛ TikTok_ban_gets_final_approval_by_Montana’s_GOP legislature⠀⇛ Congress is considering legislation that does not single out TikTok specifically but gives the Commerce Department the ability more broadly to restrict foreign threats on tech platforms. That bill is being backed by the White House, but it has received pushback from privacy advocates, right- wing commentators and others who say the language is too expansive. # ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ No_Turning_Back⠀⇛ We Cannot Reverse the Damage Done By Poor Pandemic Reporting, But The Fourth Estate Must Do Better. # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ In-Person_Service_at_Many_Government_Agencies Remains_Curtailed⠀⇛ In the hallway outside the public advocate’s office in New York, on the 15th floor of the monumental David N. Dinkins Manhattan Municipal Building, a metal sign on the wall states that the office has walk-in hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Thursday. But the door is locked, and a paper sign on it has a contradictory message: “The Office of the Public Advocate is operating on a hybrid schedule and is only receiving constituents with an appointment.” Visitors are instructed to send an email or call a number if they want assistance. The sign on the door is not a holdover from some earlier stage of the coronavirus pandemic. It reflects the ongoing practice of the office, a 55- person agency with a budget just under $5 million that serves as a sort of ombudsman for residents seeking assistance with city services or regulations. Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, first elected to the office in 2019, has decided for the foreseeable future to require employees to work in-person only two days per week, and the agency is therefore limiting public access to the actual office. “We’re modeling the hybrid,” said Kevin Fagan, its deputy communications director. “We’ve been calling on the city to adopt hybrid models where possible, to do remote work for health purposes and because that’s the way of the workforce right now, so that’s how we’re operating here at this point.” o § Proprietary⠀➾ # ⚓ IT Wire ☛ Australian_and_New_Zealand_organisations_‘paid up’_in_Ransomware_Attacks:_Report [iophk: Windows TCO]⠀⇛ Organisations experienced a significant increase in ransomware – from an average of four attacks over five years in 2021 versus four attacks over the course of one year in 2022 – and of those who fell victim, 82% admitted to paying the ransom at least once, according to a new research report. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ To_improve_security,_consider_how_the aviation_industry_stopped_blaming_pilots⠀⇛ He then drew parallels to cybersecurity, claiming it can learn from aviation to look for the reasons behind the human error and determine if the mistake is perhaps systemic. Christiaans said he is yet to come across a company that had implemented open reporting without punishment in cybersecurity. He attributed this to the industry working from the top down. The people at the top worked hard to get to leadership roles and become resistant to change. Shifting culture therefore needs to start with new recruits. # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ China_Clamping_Down_on_AI_with Stringent_Government_Reviews_—_Will_The_US_Follow?⠀⇛ “There’s real potential there to affect how the models are trained and that stands out to me as really quite important here,” Tom Nunlist, a Senior Analyst at Trivium China told Bloomberg. AI models in China will have to follow a series of guidelines established by regulators to ensure content meets these new guidelines. So how will the United States government respond? Back in the States, the Biden administration is seeking public comments on accountability measures for AI and how it could impact national security and education. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration, a Commerce Department agency that advises the White House on telecommunications and information policy, is seeking more input. # ⚓ BW Businessworld Media Pvt Ltd ☛ Twitter_Increases Character_Limit_To_10,000_For_Twitter_Blue_Users⠀⇛ The most recent increase in character restrictions is only available to Twitter Blue users.

If doing any of these normal phone things can give your phone malware, that is a security vulnerability (which is a type of bug).  Security vulnerabilities happen with some frequency. That is why your phone prompts you to update your software so often – the makers of its software find out about bugs and fix them.  So, when you hear a report that public chargers are giving people malware, you should ask “what is the vulnerability being used, and when will it be fixed?” as well as “how widespread is the problem? How many people are affected?” Unfortunately, the periodic reports of “juice jacking” never have such details, usually because they are recycled from earlier reports which themselves lack details.  # ⚓ CAN_Injection:_keyless_car_theft⠀⇛ This is a detective story about how a car was stolen – and how it uncovered an epidemic of high- tech car theft. It begins with a tweet. In April 2022, my friend Ian Tabor tweeted that vandals had been at his car, pulling apart the headlight and unplugging the cables. # § Integrity/Availability/Authenticity⠀➾ # ⚓ NPR ☛ Need_to_charge_your_phone?_Think_twice_—_‘juice jackers’_might_come_for_you⠀⇛ 2. Use a USB device called a data blocker that connects to your phone’s charging cable. # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Vice Media Group ☛ xHamster_Ordered_to_Verify_or Remove_All_Amateur_Content⠀⇛ xHamster already has a process for verifying users who want to upload videos, including providing a selfie and legal identification, such as a driver’s license, along with documentation of consent from everyone who appears in the videos. Its verification practices began in 2021, after Mastercard announced that it would require “clear, unambiguous and documented consent” for all adult sites. This followed Pornhub’s own purge of millions of unverified videos in late 2020, after Mastercard, Visa, and Discover stopped processing payments to the site, citing unlawful content. Heavier burdens on content creators and platforms to provide extensive documentation retroactively for videos has a chilling effect on their ability to earn a living and stay online. Porn sites face intense scrutiny from lawmakers and discrimination from financial institutions when it comes to identity and verification that other mainstream platforms such as Meta’s Instagram and Facebook, Twitter, and Tiktok do not. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Irish_regulator_has_month_to_make_order on_EU-US_Facebook_data_transfers⠀⇛ EU regulators, led by Ireland’s Data Protection Commissioner (DPC) Helen Dixon, have been finalising a ban on the legal tool used by Facebook to transfer European user data because of concerns US intelligence agencies could access the information. Dixon, who is lead regulator for Facebook parent Meta because its European headquarters are in Ireland, last month said the ban could be in place by mid-May. # ⚓ European Parliament ☛ MEPs_against_greenlighting personal_data_transfers_with_the_U.S._under_current rules⠀⇛ According to the text, the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework is an improvement on previous frameworks, but does not provide for sufficient safeguards. MEPs note that the framework still allows for bulk collection of personal data in certain cases, does not make bulk data collection subject to independent prior authorisation, and does not provide for clear rules on data retention. MEPs note that the Data Privacy Framework creates a Data Protection Review Court (“DPRC”) aimed at providing redress to EU data subjects, but its decisions would be secret, violating citizens’ right to access and rectify data about them. Moreover, DPRC judges could be dismissed by the U.S. President, who could also overrule its decisions, so the Review Court is not truly independent, say MEPs. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Child_Advocates_Rebuke_‘Beyond Appalling’_Facebook_Push_to_Allow_Kids_in_the Metaverse⠀⇛ On the heels of a study showing that minors who use Facebook’s virtual reality platform known as the “Metaverse” have routinely been exposed to harassment and abuse, a coalition of more than 70 children’s health experts and advocacy groups on Friday called on its parent company Meta to scrap plans to officially open up the digital world to children as young as 13. # ⚓ EFF ☛ EFF,_International_Allies_Warn_That_Proposed_UN Cybercrime_Treaty,_Rather_Than_Making_Us_More_Secure, Could_Legitimize_Intrusive_Surveillance_and_Drag_Down Global_Privacy_and_Free_Expression_Standards⠀⇛ One big issue we’re facing is that there isn’t an effective global system in place to make sure human rights are enforced. Not many governments want to limit their own power to spy and track people closely. Because of this, the Convention might end up legitimizing intrusive surveillance power that invades people’s private lives and infringe upon their rights.   o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Putin_Signs_Law_On_Electronic_Military_Enlistment Aimed_At_Draft_Dodgers⠀⇛ [...] The electronic variant will be considered as delivered to a person seven days after being placed online in an account opened for each person eligible for conscription. Many have avoided conscription during Russia’s invasion of Ukraine by not picking up mail at their official address. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ National_Guardsman_Arrested_For_Leaking_Top Secret_Ukraine_War_Documents_On_Discord⠀⇛ So, we’re just handing out top secret security clearance to everyone, I guess. It was clear from the documents posted to Discord (before spreading everywhere), the person behind them would soon be located. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Putin_signs_law_on_electronic_summonses_and restrictions_on_‘dodgers’_—_Meduza⠀⇛ President of Russia Vladimir Putin signed a law that makes electronic military summonses equivalent to those delivered on paper, creates a register of military-eligible people, and closes borders to “draft dodgers.” The document has been published on the official portal for legal information. # ⚓ Telex (Hungary) ☛ Telex_photographer_wins_Grand_Prize_at Hungarian_Press_Photography_Awards⠀⇛ # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Division_Remains_Deep_in_Northern_Ireland as_Biden_Marks_25th_Anniversary_of_Good_Friday_Agreement⠀⇛ President Biden was in Ireland this week to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, the U.S.-brokered peace deal that ended three decades of fighting in Northern Ireland, known as the Troubles. Biden’s visit comes less than two months after British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced he had reached a deal with the European Union on post-Brexit trade rules for Northern Ireland, and a year after the British Parliament introduced a bill to provide amnesty to former British soldiers and individuals involved in the Northern Ireland conflict. Human rights experts have accused the bill of undermining the Good Friday Agreement.

Last year, that service fell short of its goal by 15,000 recruits, or a quarter of its target. Despite reports of better numbers in the first months of this year, Army officials doubt they will achieve their objective this time around either. The commanding general at Fort Jackson, the South Carolina facility that provides basic training to 50% of all new members of the Army, called the recruiting command’s task the hardest since the all-volunteer military was launched in 1973. The Army’s leaders were alarmed enough to make available up to $1.2 billion for recruitment incentives and related initiatives. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ US_Lawmakers_Call_on_Biden_to_End_US Taxpayer_Support_of_Israeli_Human_Rights_Violations⠀⇛ Rep. Jamaal Bowman and Sen.

However, there are still differences in the instances in which the company does so. In many cases, Nintendo goes after people or groups in a fashion that stretches, if not breaks, any legitimate intellectual property concerns. Other times, Nintendo’s actions are well within its rights, but those actions often times appear to do far more harm to the company than whatever IP concern is doing to it. This is probably one of those latter stories. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Twitter_Suspends_User_For_Sharing_Washington Post_Story_About_Pentagon_Docs_Leaker⠀⇛ You know the drill by now. In October of 2020, the NY Post ran a story about the contents of a laptop hard drive that Hunter Biden apparently left at a computer repair store. There were questions about the provenance of that hard drive, and, given the history of foreign election interference, as well as some questions about the story itself, Twitter made the (ultimately unwise and mistaken) decision to block links to that story, and (in some cases) to suspend accounts that were sharing it. A day later, the company admitted this was a mistake and changed its policy. o § Environment⠀➾ # ⚓ Rlang ☛ Zombie_Forests:_Mapping_Tree_Migration_with_R Shiny⠀⇛ Zombie forests – a creative, evocative term sprouting from one of many significant changes brought about by our changing climate. These forests are characterized by large numbers of dead or dying trees that remain standing outside of their rapidly shifting climate zones. Setting the Stage for Destruction Extreme weather conditions and temperature shift, resulting in warmer conditions, have left many of our forests off-balance. Unable to keep pace with the moving front, some tree spcies are struggling to surive in the new climate. # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ Sixteen_Kids_Are_Fighting_the_Climate Crisis_in_Court⠀⇛ Gibson-Snyder signed onto the lawsuit as a plaintiff. It felt, finally, like agency. She joined 15 others, ranging in age from 2 years old to 18 and hailing from all over Montana: the doorsteps of Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, the Flathead Indian Reservation, western cities like Kalispell and east to the rural Powder River. The youngest two plaintiffs suffer from respiratory conditions that leave them vulnerable to the poor air quality of wildfire smoke; their parents signed them onto the suit. Most heard about it through school, friends, or older siblings and signed on themselves. Now, three years later, that case will finally be heard in June in Montana’s small capitol town of Helena. As the first youth-led climate case to make it to trial, it’s the first time that this generation and their prosecution can lay out a body of evidence for how climate change is impacting environmental resources, how a state’s fossil fuel- driven projects and existing policy violate a constitutional right and knowingly contribute to climate change, and the psychological injuries its children suffer as a result. A similar Utah case was recently dismissed, and a suit against the federal government has been languishing in delays since 2015; in 2020, a federal appeals court “reluctantly” threw it out, ruling that climate change was not an issue for the courts. But Montana is a unique battleground. # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ The Nation ☛ He_Made_Louisiana_History._Now_He_Wants to_Change_the_State’s_Climate_Future.⠀⇛ “You’re going to see me,” Davante Lewis told the crowd.

Nearly 260 million Indians use UPI — in January 2023, it recorded about 8 billion transactions worth nearly $200 billion. The transactions can be facilitated using mobile numbers or QR codes, ranging from a few cents to 100,000 rupees ($1,221) a day. In 2019, Google recommended the U.S. Federal Reserve emulate UPI as it develops its own real-time payments system FedNow. In the aftermath of U.S. payment sanctions stunting Russia, more countries have vocalized a desire for internet and payments sovereignty. India has pitched its digital public infrastructure (DPI) as a sovereign, self-owned technology stack, policy experts told Rest of World. # ⚓ [Old] Medium ☛ Your_guide_to_UPI_—_the_world’s_most advanced_payments_system⠀⇛ Unified Payments Interface, or UPI (this is important, remember this acronym), was created with the sole purpose of enabling interoperability. It is a platform that is simultaneously backward compatible and future proof — a common language. But as is usually the case with well designed systems, UPI ended up unleashing a tsunami of economic potential along the way. To understand why UPI is as powerful as it is, and how it completely changes the payments landscape, we must first understand how any payments system operates.

Last week, ProPublica documented that for more than two decades Thomas and his wife, Ginni Thomas, have taken almost annual luxury vacations in the company of Crow. These vacations went undisclosed until ProPublica’s investigation. In 2009, the billionaire also gave $500,000 to Liberty Central, a right-wing activist group headed by Ginni Thomas. Answering criticism of his secretive ties to a plutocrat who often gives money to political causes that have business before the courts, Thomas responded that Harlan and his wife, Kathy Crow, are ”among our dearest friends. As friends do, we have joined them on a number of family trips.” # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Cuban_Journalist:_U.S.-Cuba_Talks_on Migration_Come_as_Ongoing_Embargo_Creates_Economic_Refugees⠀⇛ We look at U.S. policy toward Cuba as U.S. and Cuban officials met Wednesday to discuss migration from the island. This January, the U.S. Embassy in Havana began processing immigrant visas for the first time in more than five years in an attempt to control the extent of undocumented migration from the island. Meanwhile, the U.S. continues to face pressure to lift the embargo that has severely limited trade and more with Cuba for decades.

He was just four years old when Milo, as he’s commonly known in the country, became the prime minister of the Socialist Republic of Montenegro, which was then a part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Milo went on to lead Montenegro within the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, then within the common state of Serbia and Montenegro, and later within independent Montenegro after its secession from Serbia. But while Milo was governing, navigating independence, and weathering various corruption scandals, Milatović grew up, studied in the West, returned home, and — in a surprise to everyone involved — beat the veteran politician. Đukanović conceded and wished Milatovich success, but there’s little doubt that he plans to return. The independent outlet iStories recently took a look back at the events that led to Montenegro’s current political moment. In English, Meduza is publishing an abridged version of their story. # ⚓ Michael West Media ☛ Australian_War_Memorial_artefacts melted_for_medals_in_English_boat_race⠀⇛ How the Governor-General’s man, army generals, a former MP and a rowing promoter worked to get artefacts from the Australian War Memorial to melt down for trophies at the Henley Regatta.

I totally get it. Every tech dude comes along and has this thought: “hey, we’ll be the free speech social media site. We won’t do any moderation beyond what’s required.” Even Twitter initially thought this. But then everyone discovers reality. Some discover it faster than others, but everyone discovers it. First, you realize that there’s spam. Or illegal content such as child sexual abuse material. And if that doesn’t do it for you, the copyright police will. # ⚓ Reuters ☛ Sega_nears_deal_to_acquire_Angry_Birds_maker Rovio_for_$1_billion,_Wall_Street_Journal_reports⠀⇛ Tokyo-based Sega could finalize the deal to complete the acquisition of Rovio by early next week, the report said citing people familiar with the matter. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ ‘Angry_Birds’_company_is_reportedly_about_to_be sold_for_$1_billion…_to_Sega⠀⇛ It’s surprising to think that Sega — specifically, its parent company Sega Sammy Holdings — would want to spend so much on Rovio given the decline in popularity of the Angry Birds games. The original game was a smash success in 2009, but the franchise has seemingly fallen off since its 2014 peak, when Rovio reported falling profits and layoffs. # ⚓ Vox Media ☛ Sega_might_buy_Angry_Birds_maker_Rovio_for $1B⠀⇛ If the Sega-Rovio deal goes through, it would be yet another billion-dollar mobile game studio acquisition from a major game publisher. In 2021, Electronic Arts acquired Glu Mobile and Playdemic for $2.1 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively. In 2022, Take-Two Interactive spent a whopping $12.7 billion on Zynga. Microsoft hopes to complete its acquisition of Candy Crush maker King this year, as part of its $68.7 billion buyout of Activision Blizzard. # ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Twitter_boss_Elon_Musk_forms_new artificial_intelligence_company⠀⇛ Musk, who is already the boss of Twitter and Tesla, was listed as director of X.AI Corporation founded on March 9, a state business filing indicated.

At the core of this study essentially lies the balancing act of protecting children while safeguarding the fundamental rights of users of covered online services under the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights (CFR). The study was conducted between November 2022 and March 2023 and is based on desk research, literature review, case law analysis and interviews.

It cleared the state Senate on Tuesday in a vote 46-14. Now governor Jared Polis has 10 days to sign it into law and a spokesperson has said he will. John Deere and other companies have lobbied hard against laws like this. Modern tractors have so many electronic components that manufacturers can lock farmers out of repairing their own equipment. It’s given John Deere and others a de-facto monopoly on the repair of modern equipment. It promised farmers it would let them repair their tractors, but it lied. # ⚓ New Statesman ☛ Mary_Quant:_“Technology_and_culture_are_the same_thing”⠀⇛ The suggestion that such technological innovations – chiefly the widespread use of Lycra, pioneered by French company DuPont – have little to do with Thatcherism and the wider economic and cultural climate in Britain engenders an even more bizarre reply. “Technology and culture are the same thing. Technological advancement is the culture of our time.” # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ US_extradites_Nigerian_charged_in_$6m email_fraud_scam⠀⇛ According to court documents [PDF], the scam began around February 2016 and continued until July 2017, and involved co-conspirators in Maryland in addition to the three Nigerians. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ MTS,_Russia’s_largest_mobile_network_operator, tells_remote_workers_to_return_to_Russia_from_abroad⠀⇛ Starting on June 1, the company plans to shut out any employees outside of Russia from online corporate resources.

But the problem with shameless psychopaths is that they can easily cow a weakened media into reporting their nonsense as actual, relevant fact. And that’s where we find ourselves today. Cuomo, like Donald Trump and other serial abusers, continues to insist that the lack of criminal charges against him is proof of innocence. Rather than just quote him, though, reporters are now uncritically repeating his spin, ostensibly in the service of journalistic “context.” A recent Daily Beast article read: “Cuomo, who resigned in the wake of numerous allegations of sexual harassment or misconduct—which he still denies, and never faced any criminal charges over—remains one of only three New York governors without a portrait on display.” These kinds of caveats are meaningless drivel. Sexual harassment is simply not criminal.

His Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice are bringing high-profile antitrust cases against Microsoft and Alphabet, the parent company of Google. In his State of the Union address, he called for stronger countermeasures against the social media industry’s data-gathering practices on children and teenagers in particular.

But one seemingly off-handed comment passed largely unnoticed, and the few who picked up on it largely laughed it off. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ The Washington Times ☛ Standing_up_to_schoolyard_bullies: Colleges_need_to_pay_for_censorship,_campus_violence⠀⇛ Former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines is going to sue and demand consequences for activists who assaulted her at San Francisco State University, where she discussed the impact of men competing in women’s athletic events. It should start a trend. Whether it’s any judge appointed by former President Donald Trump, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, commentators such as Matt Walsh and Ben Shapiro, or an NCAA swimmer who had her title stolen by a man, disrupting conservative and Republican-aligned speakers on college campuses has become as common as happy hour at the local dive. # ⚓ WSWS ☛ American_Library_Association_registers_a_near doubling_of_efforts_to_censor,_ban_books_in_2022⠀⇛ Ignorance goes hand in hand with social reaction. Moms for Liberty, as noted, is a far-right organization, with ties to fascist elements in and around the Republican Party. Considering those political surroundings, its claim to be concerned with an accurate depiction of the Holocaust needs to be taken with a very large grain of salt. The outfit has particularly close ties to the administration of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Media Matters for America has correctly pointed out that Moms for Liberty uses “parental rights” as a cover for harassing public schools and libraries. They are opposed to “indoctrinating” children—except with chauvinism, militarism, anti- communism and religious bigotry. # ⚓ BIA Net ☛ Journalist_Dilan_Akyol_detained_by_anti-terror police_in_Antalya⠀⇛ Focusing on the rights of the Kurdish people in Turkey, as well as other countries in the region, the agency faces legal harassment frequently, including court cases against its journalists and online censorship. # ⚓ CPJ ☛ Turkey_charges_17_Kurdish_journalists,_media_worker with_membership_in_a_terrorist_organization⠀⇛ According to the indictment, the journalists and media worker are employed by local ARİ, PEL, and PİYA production companies and produce Kurdish- focused shows on news, culture, arts, political debates, and documentaries. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ ‘A_cry_of_shame_and_despair’_How_a_dissident couple_who_protested_the_war_with_graffiti_split_up_when tried_by_a_Russian_court⠀⇛ The Russian artist Lyudmila Razumova and her husband Alexander Martynov shared a love of nature and outdoors, a free-spirit lifestyle, and liberal convictions. When Russia invaded Ukraine, the couple traveled from Tver region to Moscow to take part in mass protests. When they saw the police decimating the small crowd of courageous people who had come out to protest the war, Alexander and Lyudmila were disheartened. On their return home, they began to come out at night to spray protest graffiti around their small town and the nearby villages. Within a month, they were arrested and charged with vandalism, and later with spreading disinformation under the new Russian law against “fakes” about the Russian military. Unexpectedly, the pressures of confinement and the court trial drove a wedge between the couple who had planned to spend the rest of their lives together. The Russian outlet Verstka published the story of two activists who loved one another but parted ways while a Russian court tried them for having an opinion. Meduza in English has translated it. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ ‘A_fair_solution_in_this_delicate_sphere’:_State Duma_creates_committee_for_depriving_‘foreign_agents’_and dissident_artists_of_Russian_income_—_Meduza⠀⇛ Russia’s State Duma has tasked a special committee with developing a proposal on how to deprive antiwar Russian artists and people designated as “foreign agents” of their income in Russia.

In Tennessee, the state legislature recently banned drag queen shows but, after the Covenant Baptist School shooting, expelled two Black legislators for protesting gun violence with demonstrators. And last month, the Republican Party of Texas censured GOP Representative Tony Gonzalez, whose district includes Uvalde, Tex., for backing bipartisan gun safety laws and protections of same- sex marriage laws. # ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Why_we_should_all_care_about_the_textbook debate⠀⇛ A reference to this champion of Indian nationalism, a freedom fighter whom former Prime Minister (PM) Jawaharlal Nehru called Mir-e-Karavan (leader of our caravan) when he announced his death, is the latest excision in school textbooks.

According to Bloomberg, the arrest was personally approved by Vladimir Putin. The U.S. government, numerous major international media outlets, and hundreds of independent journalists have demanded Gershkovich’s release. The day after his arrest, Meduza asked readers to write letters to Evan, and in the days that followed, we received more than 350. We’re grateful to everyone who took the time to let Evan know he hasn’t been forgotten, and we’ll send the letters to him soon. In the meantime, we’re publishing some of them below.

The state’s highest court approved a mandate on Thursday that criminal defendants who can’t afford their own attorney must always have one before an indictment. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Mediazona:_No_fewer_than_66_Russians_arrested_on railway_sabotage_charges,_one_third_of_them_minors_—_Meduza⠀⇛ At least 66 Russians have been arrested and charged with railway sabotage since last fall, Mediazona has calculated. # ⚓ Reputable_lawyer_brings_Erdoğan’s_candidacy_to_ECtHR⠀⇛ Former chairperson of the İstanbul bar association, Turgut Kazan stated that the rule limiting the number of terms of presidency stated in the Constitution is binding for all including the Supreme Election Council. # ⚓ EFF ☛ Latam_Media_Briefing:_Proposed_UN_Cybercrime_Treaty Lacks_Sufficient_Human_Rights_Safeguards,_Exacerbating Threats_to_Privacy_and_Civil_Liberties_in_Latam⠀⇛ # ⚓ Vice Media Group ☛ A_Computer_Generated_Swatting_Service_Is Causing_Havoc_Across_America⠀⇛ The bombs weren’t real. But, crucially, neither was the man’s voice. The panicked man’s lines sound artificially generated, according to recordings of the swatting calls reviewed by Motherboard. It is unclear how exactly the caller generated the voice, be that some form of artificial intelligence tool or another speech synthesis program. The result, though, is a voice that sounds very consistent across multiple calls. In fact, Motherboard has found, this synthesized call and another against Hempstead High School were just one small part of a months-long, nationwide campaign of dozens, and potentially hundreds, of threats made by one swatter in particular who has weaponized computer generated voices. Known as “Torswats” on the messaging app Telegram, the swatter has been calling in bomb and mass shooting threats against highschools and other locations across the country. Torswat’s connection to these wide ranging swatting incidents has not been previously reported. The further automation of swatting techniques threatens to make an already dangerous harassment technique more prevalent. # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ Elkhart,_IN,_Police_Scandal_Ends_With_Second Guilty_Plea⠀⇛ A second police officer has pleaded guilty to a federal civil rights charge filed in response to a 2018 investigation of the criminal justice system in Elkhart, Indiana, by the South Bend Tribune and ProPublica. His conviction is the latest development in the extensive fallout from the news organizations’ reporting on the city’s policing. o § Digital Restrictions (DRM)⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] uni Michigan ☛ Digital_Copyright⠀⇛ Technology now permits copyright owners of works in digital format to monitor and meter the consumption of their works. The ubiquity of digital technology in the information and entertainment industries and the rapid penetration of the Internet into Americans’ lives have enabled the dissemination of an increasing amount of information on a pay-per- view basis. In the current milieu, the policy arguments over the rationale for copyright owners’ imperfect control have taken on immense practical significance. If the reason that authors’ and their publishers’ control over uses of their works has been narrowly confined is to enable consumers and future authors to make the broadest possible use of protected creations that is consistent with the copyright system’s encouragement of authorship, then digital technology changes very little. The fact that technology enables copyright owners to exercise more complete control is no reason to modify the copyright law to facilitate it. If, in contrast, the goal of copyright law is to place all feasible control over works of authorship firmly in the hands of copyright owners, new digital technology offers us the opportunity for the first time to come very close to perfecting the system. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ 28_State_AGs_Urge_Congress_To_Pass_Stalled ‘Right_To_Repair’_Bills⠀⇛ In just the last five years, the “right to repair” movement has shifted from nerdy niche to the mainstream, thanks in part to significant support from the Biden FTC. We’ve seen numerous state bills make significant inroads in passing laws opening the door to undermining repair monopolies, even though industry lobbying has, at times, neutered the proposals in a bid to make them useless (see: Kathy Hochul in New York State). o § Monopolies⠀➾ # ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ Is_antitrust_anti-labor?⠀⇛ Trusts were an incredibly successful business structure. A bunch of competing companies would be sold to a new holding company (“the trust”), and the owners of those old standalone companies would get stock in this new trust. The trust would operate as a single entity, hiking prices and suppressing wages. If anyone tried fight the trust with a new, independent company, the trust could freeze them out, by selling goods below cost, or by doing exclusive deals with key suppliers and customers, or both. Once a trust sewed up an industry, no one could compete. The trust barons were rulers for life. # ⚓ Computer World ☛ It’s_déjà_vu_all_over_again_as_governments put_Microsoft_in_their_crosshairs⠀⇛ Microsoft faces a bigger problem than the Activision lawsuit. It’s facing multiple government actions that target the engine turbocharging the company’s growth: the cloud. # § Patents⠀➾ # ⚓ Daniel Pocock ☛ World.IP.Day_&_WIPO_bribery_and corruption⠀⇛ The case was processed by the ADR Forum rather than WIPO. When the ADR Forum notified us of the case, they informed us that the panelist would be a lawyer associated with IBM. In fact, the lawyer in question had a leading role in the Federation Against Software Theft (FAST), a lobby group funded by IBM. A fellow director of FAST is another lawyer who spent 35 years working for IBM. IBM is the owner of Red Hat, therefore, the proposed panelist would clearly have a conflict of interest. When this was pointed out, the lawyer in question immediately resigned from the process and ADR Forum appointed another lawyer to replace them. Nonetheless, conflicts of interest like this are usually not so easy to detect. We don’t know if Matthew Kennedy, Clive Duncan Thorne or Oleksiy Stolyarenko have ever worked on legal projects for any of the companies who give money to Debian. Nonetheless, there are enough companies giving money to Debian that there is a high probability that at least one of the lawyers has done work for one of those companies. In fact, in almost 30 years of Debian, there has never been any attempt to give a transparent report about which companies are funding the project with cash or employee time. This is the reality of many non-profit organizations: the non-profit status is simply an illusion to obfuscate the identity of the organizations who control the revenue. # ⚓ EPO’s_quality_chief_answers_critics_|_Managing Intellectual_Property [Ed: EPO 'puff piece' partner printing EPO lies behind a paywall so that people cannot respond to the lies]⠀⇛ # § Software Patents⠀➾ # ⚓ India Times ☛ Google_must_face_trial_over_Sonos patents,_says_California_judge⠀⇛ Sonos said Google stole its technology to use in products like Chromecast Audio and Google Home after working together to integrate Google’s streaming music service into the Sonos ecosystem. Google has countered that Sonos copied its technology after their collaboration. Sonos accused Google in the San Francisco case of infringing four patents related to multi-room wireless speaker technology. U.S. District Judge William Alsup previously invalidated one of the patents and determined Google infringed another. # § Trademarks⠀➾ # ⚓ TTAB Blog ☛ TTAB_Renders_Split_Decision_in_“ELECTRIC LAST_MILE_SOLUTIONS”_Section_2(d)_Appeal⠀⇛ The Board affirmed-in-part and reversed-in- part a Section 2(d refusal to register the mark ELECTRIC LAST MILE SOLUTIONS in five classes: batteries and chargers (class 9), vehicles and electric vehicle (12), floor mats (27), electric vehicle retail services (35) and repair of electric vehicles (37). The Board found confusion likely with the registered mark LAST MILE for electric vehicles as to applicant’s class 12, 35, and 37 goods and services, but not likely as to the class 9 and 27 goods and services. In_re Mullen_Automotive_Inc., Application Serial No. 90366095 (April 11, 2023) [not precedential] (Opinion by Judge Marc A. Bergsman). # § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ Walled Culture ☛ Writers_and_publishers_face_an existential_threat_from_AI:_time_to_embrace_the_true fans_model⠀⇛ The real solution is to move to an entirely different business model, which is based on the unique connection between human creators and their fans. The true fans approach has been discussed here many times in other contexts, and once more reveals itself as resilient in the face of change brought about by rapidly-advancing digital technologies. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Korean_Piracy_Giant_Noonoo_TV_Shuts Down_Citing_Bandwidth_Costs_&_Pressure⠀⇛ One month ago, South Korean movie and TV show piracy platform Noonoo TV was riding the crest of a wave along with tens of millions of dedicated fans. A few hours ago, the site shocked its users by shutting itself down. A statement in Korean first lays the blame on “outrageous” bandwidth charges but it seems that extraordinary anti-piracy pressure was the reason behind the site’s demise. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Russian_Registry_Revokes TorrentGalaxy’s_Domain_Name_for_Unknown_Reasons⠀⇛ Popular torrent site TorrentGalaxy has lost control of its .su domain name after the Russian Institute for Public Networks revoked the Soviet TLD without warning. Without an official explanation the true motivation remains unknown, but TorrentGalaxy’s operator believes that the action might be related to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal⠀➾ # ⚓ A_site_about_nothing⠀⇛ Why do I keep coming back here? … well, I think most people here don’t have anything to share really. In fact, when they do, I try to say clear. No mister, you won’t have me involved in those fancy knowledge sharing shenigans! I’d much rather lean in my rocking chair with my beer to watch the neighbours coming and going! # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_CLMYSUO_Wordo:_GECKO⠀⇛ # ⚓ The_Chaos_Crier,_Issue_#0⠀⇛ My copies of Black Sword Hack: Ultimate Chaos Edition and The Chaos Crier, Issue #0 arrived. Naturally, I read the later first. It describes a creepy seaside town, the horrible monsters that are subverting it, the cult that foolishly enables it, the town’s inhabitants, and those who struggle against the coming apocalypse. Excellently written, though I take fault with the layout. Overflowing with great ideas. # ⚓ The_Stonecutter,_Part_6⠀⇛ He could reach immense speeds. He could blow away the roofs of buildings and the umbrellas of the nobles. He could move the clouds and thus control the Sun’s brightness or where the rain would fall. As winter came he caused blizzards and froze people to death where they stood. So much schadenfreude, so much glee. Not only could he blow rooftops off houses. If he pushed himself he could blow away the houses themselves, or cause floods that floated them out into the oceans. # ⚓ Disrespect⠀⇛ The head manager of the store, Mike, is a real jackass. We had a coworker leave a few weeks ago, Johann, he was referred to the store by Roomie. Well Johann proved to be a bit of a liar and started missing shifts constantly claiming to be sick while hanging out with mutual friends, so we knew he wasn’t. He hadn’t fulfilled a shift in 3 weeks when he finally wrote a long, meandering text to Mike saying he was quitting, along with some digs at Mike and our other horrid supervisor Chuck. Since Johann left, Mike has been treating me a bit nicer. He was showing me respect, asking me to do things in a polite manner and praising me when I did a good job. o § Technical⠀➾ # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ Emacs_Configuration_Refactoring⠀⇛ I’m going through a refactoring stage where I wanted to try the new wave of completion packages that are available; namely Vertico, consult, embark, corfu, cape, orderless and marginalia. Overall the experience is very nice; every package is an improvement of some aspects of the packages it replaces. We are talking about helm and company, mainly. Instead of helm, vertico is the UI of the completion; running in the minibuffer, but it doesn’t make a difference. # ⚓ Re:_My_create_article_script⠀⇛ I found funny that I have my own version of that script. By reducing friction, it is easier to post more frequently, isn’t it? # ⚓ Yretek_–_My_create_article_script⠀⇛ This one was much easier, practice makes you better and all that. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

This is why discrete GPUs have hot-clocked GDDR or HBM on massively-wide memory interfaces, but integrated graphics don’t have that luxury. Instead, they have to share a relatively-pokey (in terms of bandwidth) main memory interface with the CPU cores. o § Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ OMG!

Yes, in 2023. It was never really about saving screens. Screensavers are a simple tech for a bygone era. Now, of course, most of us just let our flatscreens go to sleep after a period of inactivity. But back when CRT hummed to CRT like mastodons bellowing across primeval swamps, they didn’t have a sleep mode, and you needed something to prevent the unchanging parts of your screen display “burning in,” where a faint ghost of the image is permanently visible, rendering a display either unpleasant or impossible to use. Don’t knock it – burn-in can still affect flatscreens today. If you did like screensavers, you can still have one. The sage of Netscape himself, Jamie Zawinski, or jwz as he’s often known online, still maintains XScreensaver after 31 years. o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ # ⚓ LinuxTechi ☛ How_to_Install_FreeIPA_Server_on_RHEL_8_| Rocky_Linux_8_|_AlmaLinux_8⠀⇛ Are you looking for an easy guide on how to install FreeIPA server on Linux ?

Well I thought you’d never ask, but now you can, thanks to my new projects apt-verify and apt-sigstore. I have not done proper stable releases yet, so this is work in progress. To try it out, adapt to the modern era of running random stuff from the Internet as root, and run the following commands. Use a container or virtual machine if you have trust issues. # ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ How_to_Report_Bugs_in_Ubuntu⠀⇛ Ubuntu is one of the most widely used open-source operating systems in existence. Both individuals and enterprises use Ubuntu and it powers a lot of production servers. One way you can contribute to making Ubuntu better is by registering bugs that you encounter while using the system. That’s the beauty of open-source software, you can actively contribute to the software that you love. Here’s how to report bugs on Ubuntu. # ⚓ Linux Journal ☛ Mastering_the_journalctl_Command:_A Comprehensive_Guide⠀⇛ System logs are a vital resource for administrators and developers looking to monitor system performance, troubleshoot issues, and understand the events taking place within the system. On this article, we learn about how on Linux systems, the journalctl command provides an effective way to access and manage these logs. § Introduction to the journalctl Command The journalctl command is a utility that allows users to view and interact with systemd journal logs. These logs include information from various sources, such as the kernel, initrd, system services, applications, and systemd itself. The logs are stored in a binary format and can be queried efficiently using journalctl. The basic syntax of the journalctl command is as follows: journalctl [options…] [matches…] § Viewing and Filtering Logs with journalctl The most straightforward way to use journalctl is without any options. This will display all logged entries in chronological order: $ journalctl However, the output can be overwhelming, especially on systems with a long runtime. To make navigation easier, the output is automatically paginated using the less command. Use the Enter key to scroll line by line, or the Space key to scroll page by page. To exit the log output, press q on your keyboard. # ⚓ HowTo Forge ☛ How_to_Install_FossBilling_with_Nginx_on Debian_11⠀⇛ FOSSBilling is free and open-source billing designed to be easy for clients and sellers.

There are a few details still to work out though when looking at this from the wider Linux ecosystem perspective. § UnifiedPush on Linux Applications on Linux interface with UnifiedPush via a relatively simple D-Bus interface. You can register and unregister for push notifications and get signaled the reception of such a message, that’s basically it. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § BSD⠀➾ # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Double_BSD_birthday_bash_beckons_•_The Register⠀⇛ New point releases of both the general-purpose Linux rival FreeBSD and the security-focused, traditional and rather minimalist OpenBSD have landed. FreeBSD 13.2 has arrived after a slightly longer release process than planned, which included a couple of additional release candidates, RC5 and RC6. Before you get too excited, though, this is only a point release, and while we’ve been testing it for a while at the new Vulture Towers outpost in the middle of the Irish Sea, FreeBSD 13.2 isn’t dramatically different from the preceding version, which we looked at nearly a year ago. o § SUSE/OpenSUSE⠀➾ # ⚓ Dominique Leuenberger ☛ openSUSE_Tumbleweed_–_Review_of_the week_2023/15⠀⇛ Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, This week we have seen quite a low number of submit requests coming to Tumbleweed, which resulted in the snapshots being built and tested rather quickly and us thus managing to release 8 snapshots in the day (usually the Thursday snapshot is only published later on Friday evening, this week it was all built and tested before lunch). So the 8 snapshots are not something really special. The versioning for snapshots limits us to one snapshot per day after all (and I doubt anybody would ask for more than that). The snapshots covered in this review are 0406…0413 and contain these changes: # Apache 2.4.57 # mutter 44.0 git snapshot (44 commits after 44.0: avoid some crashes on gnome-shell) # KDE Frameworks 5.105.0 # Pipewire 0.3.68 # 389-ds 2.3.2 # Mozilla Firefox 112.0 # Linux kernel 6.2.10 o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ IBM_acquires_Ahana,_joins_the_Presto Foundation⠀⇛ IBM Corp. has acquired Ahana Cloud Inc., a startup that offers managed and commercial versions of the Presto open-source distributed query engine, for an undisclosed price. § Canonical/Ubuntu Family⠀➾ * ⚓ Neowin ☛ Ubuntu_Livepatch_for_HWE_Linux_kernels_coming_soon⠀⇛ Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, has announced that Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernels will receive updates via the Livepatch service, just like Long-Term Release (LTS) kernels. The first kernel to gain support will be Linux 6.2 which will ship with Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster next week before being made available as an HWE kernel in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS in July. For those not familiar with Livepatch, it’s a service available to customers with an Ubuntu Pro subscription. If you don’t have a subscription it can be enabled on five of your personal machines. With this enabled, you are able to get the latest kernel updates installed on your computer without having to reboot. Linux kernel updates are one of the very few packages that typically require a restart in Ubuntu but with Livepatch there’s no need to restart. * ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Canonical_Bringing_Livepatch_Support_to_HWE_Kernels⠀⇛ As spotted by our friends at Neowin, Canonical announced Livepatch support for Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernels starting this summer. The first HWE kernel being covered as part of this support extension is Linux 6.2, which will be backported from the Ubuntu 23.04 release and pushed out to users of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Livepatch is a feature only available on long-term support (LTS) versions of Ubuntu for users with an active Ubuntu Pro subscription. When enabled, Livepatch allows users to install kernel updates (on eligible machines) without needing to reboot after. Extending the number of kernels covered by the feature is an important move, albeit one aimed at enterprise, server, and business customers. While being asked to reboot to finish applying kernel updates is common, it’s not something Ubuntu desktop users typically mind. * ⚓ Container Journal ☛ Canonical_Simplifies_Deployment_of_Cloud-Native Infrastructure⠀⇛ Canonical has made available a virtual appliance for the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud based on its lightweight MicroK8s distribution of Kubernetes along with a Charmed Operator for open source Kubeflow software running on that cloud platform to manage machine learning operations (MLOps) on Kubernetes clusters. § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Using_Pico:ed_V2_board_as_a_replacement_for_BBC_Micro: bit⠀⇛ We’ve received a sample of the Pico:ed V2 board developed by ELECFREAKS and will show how to use it as a replacement for the BBC micro:bit in a project using CircuitPython. * ⚓ peppe8o ☛ Raspberry_PI_Pico_and_e-paper_(e-ink)_Display⠀⇛ Raspberry PI Pico e-paper (e-ink) displays are output devices that make cool your project results and help to save a lot of power. § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ * ⚓ Phone Arena ☛ Android_14_could_allow_users_to_block_full-screen notifications_from_apps_–_PhoneArena⠀⇛ * ⚓ SlashGear ☛ The_Best_Wellness_Apps_On_Android_For_Meditation⠀⇛ * ⚓ Android Central ☛ Poll:_Which_version_of_Android_is_your_phone currently_on?_|_Android_Central⠀⇛ * ⚓ Android Authority ☛ 5_Android_apps_you_shouldn’t_miss_this_week_– Android_Apps_Weekly⠀⇛ § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ * § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ o § Mozilla⠀➾ # ⚓ Firefox_Nightly:_Jam-packed_with_Updates_–_These_Weeks_in Firefox:_Issue_135⠀⇛ § Highlights # ⚓ Firefox_Nightly:_Dropping_the_Banner_Hammer_and_More_– These_Weeks_in_Firefox:_Issue_134⠀⇛ § Highlights # Cookie Banner Handling can now be enabled in Nightly via about:preferences#privacy.

Releases of eight other prisoners in Erzurum and Van are again being prevented by reports of administrative committees in prisons. § Monopolies⠀➾ * § Patents⠀➾ o ⚓ JUVE ☛ Nokia_continues_SEP_campaign_with_injunction_win_against Vivo⠀⇛ The Regional Court Mannheim has again found in favour of Finnish company Nokia in its wide-ranging battle against various mobile phone manufactuers over smartphone technology. Last week, the court confirmed that Chinese smartphone vendor Vivo infringed three standard essential patents, two of which cover the 4G standard. * § Software Patents⠀➾ o ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ Google_Will_Go_to_Trial_Over_Sonos_Patent Infringement_Case⠀⇛ A California judge has ruled that Google must face a trial in the patent lawsuit brought by Sonos. Inc. against the company. The case is set for trial on May 8 and is part of a long-standing dispute between Sonos and Google over its smart speaker technology. * § Trademarks⠀➾ o ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ Aaron_Judge,_Union_Win_Dispute_Over ‘All_Rise’_Trademark⠀⇛ Aaron Judge has won a dispute over trademarks used to promote the New York Yankees slugger § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ * § Personal⠀➾ o ⚓ 50_days⠀⇛ Today is the 50th day that I’m alcohol-free. Funny, but unwittingly it coincided with Lent in church. It’s like my ascesis. o ⚓ The_Torment_of_Unplanted_Seeds⠀⇛ I’m terrified to start gardening. I want to, but I have this terrible neurosis about doing things wrong, or poorly. It leads into spirals of self loathing that can be difficult to break out of. There’s SO MUCH to know about growing things, so much conflicting advice, so many ways to fail. It’s the information overload problem, and the existence of the blasted internet is not helping one bit. And the deer, of course. They’re like a plague of giant rats around here, and I don’t have the money to make my rotting fence high enough to keep them out. They’ll destroy anything I grow if not kept at bay somehow. o ⚓ Breadlander:_a_use_for_Waffle_Starter_Remains⠀⇛ On occasion sourdough waffles are made; there may be leftover starter that can be put to subsequent use. The starter is made from all-purpose flour, and runs somewhere around 100% hydration, in this case 292.1g or maybe a bit less on the assumption that not all of it will get off the sides of the container. o ⚓ Photo_dump_–_Vernal,_UT_to_Rock_Springs,_WY⠀⇛ So close in fact, my wife came down to Vernal yesterday and spent the night. I have always thought the scenery near home is the most beautiful in the country. Have some photos… * § Technical⠀➾ o ⚓ bphflog:_//⠀⇛ Maybe the scheme would make more sense if there were a global filesystem, so there might be something like /afs/ com/example/foo on every system, and thus only one place that a directory-or-subhostname would appear in that filesystem, but last I looked the Andrew File System (AFS), while neat in various ways, hasn’t really gone anywhere, and was requiring slightly insecure DES keys in Kerberos that I dearly wanted to get rid of, the last time I had to indirectly support AFS. Also, there are portability problems that probably stem from the lack of popularity thing. o ⚓ Link_Gardens_in_the_Online_Wilds⠀⇛ You’ve noticed search getting less useful, but it’s hard to tell for how long. Google’s top results are full of garbagey sites; you’re adding +reddit to every query to get what seems like the last non-astroturfed source of opinions online, and who knows how long it’ll be before that’s gone as well. Your days in front of the screen seem repetitive, predictable, tightly circumscribed. Maybe these are all related. Maybe not. But surely you’ve wondered if things have always been quite this bad. o ⚓ [Older]_Find_OpenBSD_install_date⠀⇛ As suggested on twtxt, one may look at filesystem creation time to get a good approximation of system install date. Here how I did it. There may be better methods, so let me know 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇:)⦈ o § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ How_to_browse_Gophersphere⠀⇛ I’ve realized that I’m listed on [Bongusta]. It’s always nice for an author that somebody made a request to put my Phlog there, despite it isn’t very active and it hasn’t many long entries in the Phlog section. Regardless if I’m on the list or not, Bongusta is my top Gopherhole and I’m visiting it every time I’m browsing Gophersphere. And I started to think about how I browse Gophersphere. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

Further general information on it can be found in two highly recommended sources, Brendan Gregg’s 2012 Activity of the ZFS ARC and Allan Jude’s FOSDEM 2019 ELI5: ZFS Caching (also, via). ZFS exposes a lot of information about the state of the ARC through kstats, but there isn’t much documentation about what a lot of them mean. Today we’re going to talk about some of the kstats related to size of the ARC. I’ll generally be using the Linux OpenZFS kstat names exposed in /proc/spl/ kstat/zfs/arcstats. o § Games⠀➾ # ⚓ SimCity_2000_running_on_OpenBSD_7.3_via_DOSBox_0.74-3⠀⇛ Super excited to have SimCity 2000 running in DOSBox 0.74-3 on OpenBSD 7.3. There are still a couple issues to work around, but it works. In order for this game to run, Windows 3.1 needs to be installed first. I followed this tutorial to get everything running: https://medium.com/@egee_irl/ lets-install-windows-3-1-in-dosbox-300c87d648f9 I know the screenshots are showing the game running in a window, but for some reason the cursor is only captured when DOSBox is in fullscreen mode. For now, I just launch DOSBox in fullscreen so I can move the cursor around in order to actually play it. # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Wine_8.6_out_now_with_bundled_Musl_math library⠀⇛ After another ~2 weeks, the latest development release is out for the Windows translation layer with Wine 8.6. Part of what makes Steam Play Proton run some of the most popular games around!

FreeBSD 13.1), you can easily upgrade FreeBSD 13.1 to FreeBSD 13.2. In this step by step guide, let me show you how to upgrade to FreeBSD 13.2 from FreeBSD 13.1 version. # ⚓ OSTechNix ☛ Install_FreeBSD_13.2⠀⇛ FreeBSD 13.2 has been released a few days. FreeBSD 13.2 edition is shipped with so many updates and features. This step by step guide explains how to download the latest FreeBSD version, how to create a FreeBSD Bootable USB and how to install FreeBSD 13.2 latest edition with screenshots. o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Fedora Magazine ☛ Fedora_Magazine:_Use_rpmautospec_in Fedora_Linux⠀⇛ Use the %autorelease and %autochangelog tags simplify package maintenance and make it easier to contribute packages to the Fedora Project. These rpmautospec tags cause no noticeable difference in the packages from the end user’s perspective. As of the Fedora Linux 38 release, package maintainers should use these new tags. # ⚓ Fedora Project ☛ Fedora_Community_Blog:_CPE_Weekly_update_– Week_15⠀⇛ This is a weekly report from the CPE (Community Platform Engineering) Team.

Charmed Ceph uses Juju to manage the entire lifecycle of deployment, configuration, and operations of a Ceph cluster.  But, what if the use case is different?  Maybe all that is required is simple and repeatable Ceph storage deployments. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ SparkFun Electronics ☛ Finding_Balance_and_the_Road_Ahead⠀⇛ It’s hard to believe that SparkFun turned twenty this year. It’s even harder to believe that I’ve been part of this ride for six of those years. If you have grown up with SparkFun you know our story. For those not familiar with it, SparkFun was started by a college student (Nathan Seidle) in his dorm room – completely bootstrapped – and it all started because he fried an electronic component and had a bit of a challenge getting a replacement. College courses are fine (text books, lectures, etc.), but Nate had this itch to get his hands dirty on the tech he was learning about in class. Here is a great read from Nate on how it all got started when we hit our 15-year anniversary. # ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Yodeck_bakes_Raspberry_Pi_into_digital signage_all_over_the_world⠀⇛ Speaking of affordable, small computers, it made perfect sense when we started seeing Raspberry Pis popping up inside checkout screens at supermarkets, and in dynamic directional signage directing customers around large Swedish furniture shops. Athens-based company Yodeck jumped on the trend at just the right time a decade ago, before the scene exploded, and built their offering around our hardware. Now their Raspberry Pi-powered digital signage is in 135 countries all over the world. # ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ How_to_build_your_own_Raspberry_Pi_watch⠀⇛ The watch Toby and Alasdair purchased comes in two parts: a board with the screen, and a RP2040 main board. The watch came with a strap but not a battery, so they used this inexpensive rechargeable lithium polymer battery, although since the JST battery connector on the main board was an unusual size they both opted to pull it off and solder their batteries directly the contacts on the board rather than try and source the odd connector. # ⚓ Arduino ☛ Building_an_experimental_magnetic_loop_antenna with_a_stepper_motor_and_an_Arduino⠀⇛ TekMakerUK was inspired by Kevin Loughin’s YouTube video on the design and decided to make his own experimental version capable of 5W transmissions, which he could tune via an Android phone. The variable capacitor is from an old valve radio and has a central shaft that rotates to adjust the distance between the dielectric plates. In order to turn the coupling, a 5V stepper motor was added to the base along with a ULN2003 stepper motor driver. The driver was then connected to an Arduino Uno, although the board was replaced by a Nano Every for soldered connections. o § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ Forbes ☛ Android_Circuit:_Galaxy_S23_Downgrade,_ROG_Phone_7 Review,_Honor_Magic5_Pro_Launch⠀⇛ # ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ Is_It_Time_for_Loyal_iPhone_Users_to_Consider Android_Phones?⠀⇛ # ⚓ Make Tech Easier ☛ How_to_Empty_the_Trash_on_an_Android Phone_–_Make_Tech_Easier⠀⇛ # ⚓ SlashGear ☛ The_Best_AI_Apps_For_Android_Phones⠀⇛ # ⚓ Dignited ☛ Top_7_Best_News_Apps_for_Android_to_Check_Out_in 2023_–_Dignited⠀⇛ # ⚓ 9to5Google ☛ 9to5Google_Log_Out:_Android_versioning_on_an infinite_timescale⠀⇛ # ⚓ Android Central ☛ The_crazy_unique_LG_Wing_is_finally receiving_Android_13_|_Android_Central⠀⇛ # ⚓ TechRepublic ☛ Android_14_Now_in_Public_Beta_for_Google Phones_|_TechRepublic⠀⇛ # ⚓ Android Police ☛ Android_14_could_suggest_loyalty_cards_if you’re_near_an_eligible_store⠀⇛ # ⚓ Android Police ☛ 8_best_trivia_games_on_Android_in_2023⠀⇛ # ⚓ Android Police ☛ How_to_install_Magisk_modules_on_a_rooted Android_phone⠀⇛ # ⚓ Tom’s Guide ☛ It’s_about_time_Google_added_AirTag_anti- stalking_features_to_Android_—_and_I/O_2023_is_the_perfect place_to_do_it_|_Tom’s_Guide⠀⇛ # ⚓ InfoWorld ☛ Android_Studio_Flamingo_upgrades_UI_tooling_| InfoWorld⠀⇛ * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ Medevel ☛ 12_Open_Source_Free_Knowledge_Base_Management_Solutions For_Teams,_Startups,_and_Enterprise⠀⇛ What is a Knowledge Management Solution? A knowledge management solution is a software application designed to capture, store, and share information within an organization. It allows for the efficient management of data, documents, and other forms of content. o ⚓ OpenSource.com ☛ Edit_your_photos_with_open_source_artificial intelligence⠀⇛ I’ve been interested in photography ever since I co-opted my father’s Kodak 620 camera as a young boy. I used it to take pictures of the flora and fauna of our neighborhood. My love of photography led me to an Instamatic camera in high school, and eventually to digital cameras as they entered the marketplace in the late 1990s. Early digital cameras provided portability and the ability to quickly capture and easily share images on the internet. But they lacked the quality and complexity of the best of film photography. Of course digital cameras have improved a lot since then. But I have years of digital photographs that just look a little, well, little on modern devices. Until recently, my go-to tool for upscaling digital images has been GIMP. A couple of years ago, I tried to use GIMP to upscale a thumbnail image of my father that was taken in the mid-1940s. It worked, but the photo lacked the detail, depth, and clarity that I wanted. That’s all changed since I learned about Upscayl, a free and open source program that uses open source artificial intelligence to upscale low-resolution images. o ⚓ PowerDNS ☛ PowerDNS_DNSdist_1.7.4_Released⠀⇛ We are very happy to release DNSdist 1.7.4 today, a maintenance release fixing a few bugs reported since 1.7.3: [...] * § Leftovers⠀➾ o ⚓ uni Stanford ☛ Swastika_found_in_bathroom_of_History_Corner⠀⇛ The University has filed a Protected Identity Harm Report in response to the discovery of the swastika.

Doerr School Dean Majumdar also spoke on the sustainability school’s plans for the future. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Maybe_fix_monitor_VertRefresh_range⠀⇛ So, it looks like need to either comment-out the “VertRefresh” or increase its range. I decided on the latter, have changed it to:     VertRefresh  56-96 Which should cater for a monitor that cannot run at 60Hz and wants 90Hz. Though, my understanding is that 90Hz monitors are capable of dropping down to 60Hz. § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ * ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Covid-19:_Hong_Kong_student_cleared_of incitement_to_expose_others_to_infection_risk_over_Instagram_posts⠀⇛ A Hong Kong student accused of incitement to expose others to the risk of infection over Instagram posts related to Covid-19 has been cleared of the charge.

It’s called the Mullvad browser, named after the Mullvad VPN company it’s partnered with on the project, and it’s available for Windows, Mac, or Linux. The Mullvad browser’s main goal is to make it harder for advertisers and other companies to track you across the internet. It does this by working to reduce your browser’s “fingerprint,” a term that describes all the metadata that sites can collect to uniquely identify your device. Your fingerprint can be made up of simple things, like what browser and operating system you’re using, to more invasive info, like what fonts and extensions you have installed, and what input / output devices your browser has access to. § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ * ⚓ The Strategist ☛ Brendan_Nelson_recalls_tough_decisions_and_finest moments_as_defence_minister⠀⇛ Sometimes, says former defence minister Brendan Nelson, ministers must make decisions that run contrary to the advice they receive from their departments. * ⚓ Spiegel ☛ Former_Pakistani_Prime_Minister_Imran_Khan:_“My_Opponents Will_Try_To_Assassinate_Me_Again”⠀⇛ Imran Khan would like to become prime minister of Pakistan again one year after being forced to step down.
