This is discussed at this very moment in IRC, recalling the time Benoît_Battistelli hired several British law firms to bully me and spy on me in 2015. That misguided decision of his only emboldened me to write a lot more about EPO_crime, which continues unabated under the wing of António Campinos, who refers to himself as “the f***ing president” (because he’s psychopathic, insane, and infinitely corrupt) “It is extremely difficult to censor us, even with threats (Team UPC sent me threats only months ago, then backed down because I took that public).”The video above speaks about what’s happening right now in the EU and EC, which are in effect facilitating the EPO’s corruption and ignoring victims of the EPO. The video mostly deals with last_night's_post, which was entitled “EPO Staff Points Out That as the European Patent Convention Turns 50 It is Grossly Being Violated by Corrupt EPO Management”. We welcome any input from EPO workers — input that they deem worthy of dissemination to colleagues. A couple of years ago somebody from the EPO told me that almost everyone at the EPO reads this site. It is extremely difficult to censor us, even with threats (Team UPC sent me threats only months ago, then backed down because I took that public). █ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 129 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at http://techrights.org/2023/06/22/ibm-red-hat-vs-community/#comments Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2023/06/22/ibm-red-hat-vs-community/ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 06.22.23⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Gemini_version_available_♊︎ ✐ IBM/Red_Hat_Adds_Code_of_Censorship_to_an_Important_GNU_Project,_GCC_(the Compiler),_Despite_Longstanding_Opposition_From_RMS_and_FSF_(the_Origins_of GNU)⠀✐ Posted in GNU/Linux, GPL, IBM, Red_Hat, Servers at 1:00 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz Same time Red Hat is exposed as having begun_to_set_up_more_obstructions_to cloners_of_RHEL (bypassing GNU using monetary thresholds): 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇I am pleased to announce that the GCC Steering Committee has decided to adopt a Code of Conduct (https://gcc.gnu.org/conduct.html) for interactions in GCC project spaces, including mailing lists, bugzilla, and IRC.

The vast majority of the time, the GCC community is a very civil, cooperative space. On the rare occasions that it isn't, it's helpful to have something to point to to remind people of our expectations. It's also good for newcomers to have something to refer to, for both how they are expected to conduct themselves and how they can expect to be treated. More importantly, if there is offensive behavior that isn't corrected immediately, it's important for there to be a way to report that to the project leadership so that we can intervene. At this time the CoC is preliminary: the code itself should be considered active, but the CoC committee (and so the reporting and response procedures) are not yet in place. Specific suggestions for improvement are welcome, either on the gcc-patches post or by email to conduct@gcc.gnu.org. If you are interested in serving on the CoC committee, or would like to suggest someone who you think would be a good candidate, please email conduct@gcc.gnu.org. GCC Code of Conduct FAQ (https://gcc.gnu.org/conduct-faq.html): Why not just refer to the GNU Kind Communication Guidelines? The Guidelines are helpful for establishing the kind of behavior we want to see, but it's also important to have a reporting mechanism to help people feel safe and supported in the community, and to help leadership to hear about problems that might otherwise have escaped their notice. Shouldn't people try to work problems out between themselves first? Certainly, in many cases. And we hope referring to the CoC might be helpful then, as well. If the problem is successfully resolved, no report is necessary, though individuals might still want to let the CoC committee know about the incident just for their information. What about the rights of the reportee? The CoC committee will get their perspective, and any other available information, before taking any action. Besides which, we expect the response to the vast majority of incidents to be email asking those involved to moderate their behavior. That has been the experience of other free software projects after adopting a code of conduct: see the Linux Kernel CoC reports for an example. Is this going to be used to drive out people with "wrong" opinions? No, this is a code of conduct, not a code of philosophy. And it only deals with behavior within the context of the GCC project; for instance, harassment in private email in response to a public discussion is covered, a social media post about politics is not. Can I report incidents from before the adoption of the CoC? Yes. We may take no action if the issue seems to have been resolved, but it can be helpful to have context for future discussions. My question isn't answered here! Please also see the Reporting Guidelines (https://gcc.gnu.org/conduct-report.html) and Response Guide (https://gcc.gnu.org/conduct-response.html). If they don't answer your question either, feel free to ask here or email conduct@gcc.gnu.org with any additional questions or feedback.

md5sum b3debfb771e2975875ff1de84bc373e3 Bad Passwords Not Linux or SSH – 3 Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0 http://techrights.org/videos/fud-ssh-linux-3.webm Summary: Microsoft-connected media is belittling severe issues with Microsoft and with Windows (like computers being remotely hijacked irrespective of passwords) while falsely portraying Linux and SSH as lacking in security because of passwords such as “login” or “abcdefghi”; to make matters worse, Microsoft-funded ‘media’ crashed my recording software (OBS Studio) twice in a row, resulting in lost work (no audio recorded) THE above would have to be my worst recording experience since starting this workflow in 2020. It deals with these_links, but I had to record 3 times because a Microsoft-sponsored_SPAM_site kept crashing my sound system. I was simply trying to respond to lies it was spreading for Microsoft and Windows, as usual, mostly by omission and misdirection. Let this ordeal be a permanent reminder of how ill the “modern” Web became; it should not be like this for an ‘article’ (propaganda) only a few paragraphs long. Anyway, the main reason I did this video was (I decided to share all the recordings; the first one has about 10 minutes of silence!) to rebut some new anti-Linux and anti-SSH FUD. I decided it was worth doing video-type publication so the password patterns can be explained. An issue with passwords is not the fault of SSH or of Linux. This rebuttal may not seem so unique (we did similar before, even years back), but this FUD pattern is back and it seems connected to Microsoft-affiliated sites. They all read from the same script, using language that suggests they either don’t understand what they cover or, yet worse, they’re deliberately lying. To reproduce the rebuttals from Daily Links verbatim: “Neither Linux nor SSH at fault here. This is a Microsoft propaganda site attributing weak passwords to software which does nothing wrong. “The following table contains the list ID and password values used by the bot in the dictionary attacks along with the IP address for the target.” So it’s about bad passwords that is all. Linux sucks. It’s not safe when it’s connected to the Web with openssh daemon running and passwords “p@ssw0rd”, abcdefghi, 123@abc etc. So this is the latest Microsoft FUD argument? That “Linux” and “SSH” are bad and dangerous because of some bad passwords? Unethical journalism [sic] by Microsofters is pandering to suits with false stigma; it’s trying to create an illusion wherein VNC/RDP with bug doors would be safe, whereas SSH must be banned inside companies. Heck, just bad all UNIX and GNU/Linux systems, impose Windows on everybody.” As an associate put it some hours ago, “Microsoft-owned press is trying to present RDP as safe and SSH as insecure, in their upside-down worldview.” █ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 793 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at http://techrights.org/2023/06/22/uk-pension-fraud-next-steps/#comments Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2023/06/22/uk-pension-fraud-next-steps/ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 06.22.23⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Gemini_version_available_♊︎ ✐ Holding_the_British_Government_Accountable_for_Pension_Fraud_With_Many Victims:_The_Next_Steps⠀✐ Posted in Deception, Finance, Fraud, Free/Libre_Software at 2:47 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz Video_download_link | md5sum d16a8e521955e0561c74d8a2dc9a0b38 Long Path Towards Justice Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0 http://techrights.org/videos/sirius-next-steps.webm Summary: The crimes of Sirius_‘Open_Source’ were exposed here some months ago and reported to British police (formally) 2 months ago; I had spoken to the police since around March, but waiting for official confirmation of the crime (from Standard Life) would strengthen the report (Standard Life also confirmed this to my colleagues, separately [1, 2]); at this point we’re showing that the police is, instead of serving and protecting the British public, is serving and protecting high-level fraud by negligence and inaction, be it deliberate or not “It’s disturbing that there is no agency willing to even look at the dealing with the fraud,” an associate has told us today. I’ve already documented the involvement by police here in Manchester, politicians in Manchester, Action Fraud, and even HMRC (HM stands for His Majesty, the brother of Jeffrey Epstein’s “frequent flyer”). Worry not, however, as this will escalate further and higher. The longer it goes on for, the bigger a scandal this will become, not just for Sirius (government contractor for Free software) but also for its clients and for the government. The “first US client” of Sirius (2019) was another_one_of_Jeffrey_Epstein’s “frequent_flyers”, albeit under a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). “As noted in the video above, the next steps include the police ombudsman, pension ombudsman (not the same), British media/press, the people who manage the budget of The Met (including Action Fraud), and so on.”It seems pretty safe to say that this series may last a lot longer than the company exists. Sirius will probably fold before it reaches its 25th anniversary, based on reliable sources. The company is just_like_a_pair_of_people_now, maybe a little more than a pair. Everyone left and recruitment is infeasible. As noted in the video above, the next steps include the police ombudsman, pension ombudsman (not the same), British media/press, the people who manage the budget of The Met (including Action Fraud), and so on. Some are directly connected to Sirius, so it’ll be a great fiasco of great proportions. There’s also the Standard Life dispute, as they gained from the scam (financially), and we might revisit NOW: Pensions at some point. Their account there is managed by criminals. They need to relinquish control of that money. █ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 864 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at

Gemini*_and_Gopher o Personal/Opinions o Technology_and_Free_Software # Internet/Gemini * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ insomnia⠀⇛ Sometimes I have trouble getting to sleep at night. Some nights I don’t sleep at all. Tonight was one of them. Apparently insomnia is more prevalent among autistic people but I can’t blame my autism tonight. No, I dosed myself with too much caffeine because Final Fantasy XVI released at midnight last night. Catherine and I have both been looking forward to the game, especially once a demo became available a couple of weeks ago. I’ve been a FF fan since I was 12 and after Cat and I got married she got dragged into it. # ⚓ re:_Coffee_and_Tea_and_the_Java_and_Me⠀⇛ I’m your exception to this! We have a bag of decaf coffee at home to make for when we want to enjoy coffee at night, or want to add coffee to a cocktail. I wished that decaf coffee was just as available and tasty as regular coffee. It’s gotten better, but not quite 100% there. Believe it or not, I have also wished bourbon to taste exactly the same, but remove the alcohol. I enjoy the taste, but often I wish it had no alochol due to the possibility of dependence, impact on sleep, etc. # ⚓ June_Post⠀⇛ I’m done with two weeks of antibiotics. I was very very weak and I think I lost even more weight: I’m probably close to 50 Kg and BMI of 20. My appetite is slowly coming back and I feel much better since Monday or so. I was able to carry my flugelhorn (in its heavy wooden case) to my lesson, play it (loudly!), then carry it and myself back home. And I was OK afterwards! No pain, no heartburn while playing, no tiredness on Tuesday. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Empowering_the_masses_to_wreak_havoc_(my_view_and_wish_for Large_Language_Models)⠀⇛ I’ve been asking myself lately. Epically after Large Language Models becoming the new hot girl in the town. – Thing are, mostly, owned and propelled by large mega-corps. The situation of the field of AI is even worse. So far only Facebook, Google and Microsoft have the capacity to build new LLMs due to how much data and how expensive it is. I don’t see this trend breaking any time soon; we are heading straight towards some version of the cyberpunk dystopia. – How can I throw a wrench into the steam engine driving us towards the grim future? # ⚓ On_Hardware⠀⇛ Today I booted up the laptop to start transferring my TinyCore extensions. However, I was in for a shock – memory errors and a failure to boot! I checked the codes online and reseated the RAM as suggested to no avail, so I booted up with my copy of the Ultimate Boot CD into what was basically FreeDOS and had a look around. It seemed as though I was running out of memory, so I started removing newly added things from the onboot.lst file. I then added norestore to the syslinux.cfg file and rebooted and (eventually) it was working. I removed the norestore and rebooted and it was broken again. I rebuilt an extension that had been causing issues in case it was linked and readded it, but that didn’t help the memory problems. In the end, I just deleted the .tor directory from the home directory backup and that seemed to do the trick. It means I can’t use Tor anymore, but I have a copy of it tar.gzipped up so I can always put it back if I need it. [...] I’m writing this entry from the laptop in question, resting on an atlas and then on my lap so I don’t have to clear my desk. It’s hot today and that combined with the laptop on me has me sweating. I may need more insulation between the laptop and my legs… # ⚓ Self_hosting⠀⇛ I recently started my own pubnix where I now host my blog and everything else. I started learning about OpenBSD and decided to give it a try, and I love it so much I decided to move there permanently. # ⚓ Live_Nontindo_Direct_Reaction⠀⇛ Or… not live because I’m typing this up several hours later. Oh well! There are only a few games that I’m following very closely here, which surely exposes me as a Fake Gamer, which is fine. # ⚓ Pentium_II,_National_day,_cabin-life⠀⇛ Summer has been really kicking off up here in the north the last couple of weeks. During the weekend I visited a friend who is living in his girlfriends parents cabin out in the woods during summer. He has been going big on gardening and is growing his own tomatoes, chilis and various other stuff out there, and we have been helping him out a bit while also enjoying the nice weather that we’ve been having. I’ve gotten a bit sunburnt already, and even so I was taking precautions by wearing a cap and sunscreen. We’ve also been having some nice sauna-sessions, cooling ourselves of from time to time in the nearby lake. [...] I’ve also been working on an old PC donated by a friend. He had an old Pentium II MMX system that had been used in their summer vacation cabin that they were now selling, so I got it for nothing. It’s a bit newer than the 486-system that I’ve been playing with during winter and spring, but I installed a CF-reader and a network card in it to be able to experiment a bit. # ⚓ Amiga_archaeology,_Windows_95-98⠀⇛ I’ve spent some time these last few months to accumulate flux-images of floppies I got from various sources. Most of them were acquired from an auction-site regional to me, similar to eBay. They turned out to be mostly Amiga formatted disks, but also contained the odd IBM-formatted disk, and some Atari ST stuff as well. I had an Amiga 500, but never really used it much, since I got it very late. With emulation being what it is, it is trivial to run the old stuff found on these floppies on a modern system though. But, with hundreds of dumped images, this turned out to be a real hassle. Because of this, I recently started looking into different methods to look through these dumps to find interesting files. # ⚓ Sbanken/DNB_a.k.a._ApplePay_support_workaround⠀⇛ I started thinking about all this due to recent changes in the banking market here in Norway. However, if that is of no interest to you, skip straight to S. “The workaround”. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Happy_birthday_Gemini⠀⇛ I know on my end, where I have a web presence, am on Mastodon, a tilde community, and in my own IRL communities, Gemini and this capsule provides me with a different space to express myself and explore. I can keep a separate identity from my main professional work. I don’t have to make sure my work here matches my professional goals or even my presence on social media. With minimal tools, without commercial interests, ads or monetization, I have a place I can enter on my own terms, engage with like minded folks, and then slip out the back door, without having to do a ton of setup, negotiate or dance around a corporation, or even spend much time on drudgery. # ⚓ Geektools_has_shutdown⠀⇛ I just noticed that whois.geektools.com and geektools.com both return NXDOMAIN now… Checking the internet archive, they had posted a notice on their site back in May stating that they had ended the service: geektools.com has shut down. We started this service in 1998 as the first smart whois that would automatically query the correct server (s) to get the data you need. A lot has changed since then and it’s time to move on. Most modern command line clients on *nix-like systems will select the appropriate whois server. Check your system’s man page (“man whois” for those of you who don’t know what a man page is). If you prefer to use a browser interface there are many sites that perform the same function and they’re easy to find with your favorite search engine. # ⚓ Reddit⠀⇛ SDF just recently released a reddit-style webpage for the community which I think is pretty nifty. Reddit is interesting in its own way. I was only a casual user of Reddit but it’s one of those websites that does something that is really hard to replicate: Be incredibly niche while being incredibly popular. I think only Wikipedia comes close. # ⚓ Don’t_use_Tabs_with_Preformatted_text_in_Gemtext⠀⇛ You can’t depend on how tabs will be rendered in preformatted text blocks. You probably shouldn’t use tabs in your preformatted text blocks. You should convert tabs into spaces and use that in preformatted text blocks in Gemtext. # ⚓ hi!_i’m_Sunny_☀️⠀⇛ i only learned about the small web fairly recently. i like the reasons behind it — simplicity, mindful curation, valuing humans over corporations — things that seem to be increasingly rare on the web at large. i’ve been browsing around it for a couple days now and it’s really cool to see people just writing about things that interest them # ⚓ Dialogues_in_the_Japanese_Web⠀⇛ I have noticed a strange thing about the Japanese corner of the Internet: the number of pages presenting themselves as dialogues. Often times when I look up something in Japanese and click a result, I see some character asking another character how something works and the page continues in a dialog format. Alternatively, the explaining character may start with “today I will explain XYZ” to the second character who asks questions. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

Some time to blog! Man, it has been crazy over here. I have two part time jobs, recently moved and had covid last week. It was pretty brutal all round. So let me summarize all things related to me. # ⚓ What_the_Hell_Can_I_Do?_(translation)⠀⇛ I posted this to my blog-blog (on write.as), but realized that I had not done so here. This is my translation of a poem (of this name) by Jaime Sabines. # ⚓ Scarlet_Heroes_Character_Creation_Thoughts⠀⇛ After looking through a lot of OSR systems, I finally settled on trying out Scarlet Heroes. It looked like it offers the best balance between what I wanted out of a system. For the first game, I am a player, and someone else kind enough to be the GM. It’s going to be a duet game, which Scarlet Heroes is designed for. The first step for me in this is to create a character. # ⚓ Can_cities_be_sustainable?⠀⇛ I’ve been reading an old-ish book on sustainable city planning this morning Newman & Jennings (2008) Cities as sustainable ecosystems: principles and practices, Island press. And like I’m not criticizing the book per se I’m just kinda stuck thinking about whether we actually can make cities as we think of them, which are primarily—for lack of a better word— endothermic entities that have to take in energy and resources to function rather than generate them and turn them into entities that can more efficiently provide for their own needs # ⚓ There_Is_Only_Power⠀⇛ There is only wrath and what it lays waste to in its wake! There is no justice, no law, and no right or wrong, except for the one that replaces them! All can change, and most will… He who has the power will shape the reality of the world… # ⚓ Beyond_Dream’s_Door⠀⇛ I had some friends over and got drunk and laughed until I cried at these two fuckin things. Beyond Dream’s Door is a late-80s horror film with a student-film vibe; that is, wildly inventive and completely undisciplined. The acting, the cinematography, and frankly the script all conspire to make you think you’re watching the leadup to a porno. It feels like it’s already uploaded to Everything is Terrible. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ What_Dystopia?⠀⇛ There have been a few posts recently about the state of the Free Software movement. I was a member of the FSF for quite a few years, but gave back my badge and hung up my coat—because I think we’re pretty much done. The big battles are over, and freedom won. As a child I grew up in Microsoft land—first DOS, then Windows 3, 95, 98. Then I discovered Linux, and that I had been using junk: cheap consumer products aimed at control, when there was a world of high quality software for the sake of software that had been denied to me. I was deeply unhappy about this. The battles, then: that you had to buy a computer with a Microsoft operating system; that you had to use closed source software, and pay money for it; and that you had to trade files in proprietary formats that required that for-pay software. Oh, and you had to use Internet Explorer to browse the web, because so many pages were made specifically for it. [...] The are new problems that we didn’t have twenty years ago: the rise of social media, the dominance of algorithm-optimized information feeds. # ⚓ 1_Bit_Lifestyle,_Beepberry,_Playdate,_Watchy⠀⇛ I am slowly descending into madness…or actually color is being drained from my computing devices. Ok, maybe both of these things can be true. In addition to the monochrome (though it’s 4-bit grayscale not 1-bit :-P) PDA I use everyday I should soon* finally have my Playdate handheld that uses a 1-bit monochrome sharp memory lcd. But that’s not all. A few weeks back SQFMI, the folks behind the Watchy epaper smartwatch (yes I have one of these), unveiled a really neat little pocket computer called the Beepberry that uses the same sharp memory lcd. You can probably guess whether I ordered one. Yes, yes I did. # ⚓ To_anyone_who’s_followed_me_from_elsewhere⠀⇛ So I recently made a post on my Tumblr that since I won’t be using it anymore, you can find updates on my life and coding progress on here. If anyone is from there, I’ll reiterate that it won’t be Tumblr content and that’s kind of the point, so I’m not expecting many people will keep up with this. I think I’ll add a curious cat link so people can send me messages if they want, but the intention is definitely to not be doing what I was on Tumblr. You can subscribe to my RSS feed or bookmark my blog if you like, but I don’t know if many people will, so if I get no engagement that’s perfectly fine. I’m doing this for me. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Cool_Capsule_Of_The_Week⠀⇛ Each week, I will decide on a cool Gemini capsule to focus on, and write a short article about what makes it cool. This is basically the Gemini version of the early Web’s Cool Site Of The Day. # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ activity_pub⠀⇛ I’ve done a lot of changes to my code. Can’t remember them all. Actually ran into the request verification recursively causing more verification requests problem. It was my server actor requesting its own public key from itself because it didn’t bother to recognize itself and short circuit the logic. I disabled signature verification for now. # ⚓ Webdev_seemed_so_easy,_but_now_it_seems_so_hard…⠀⇛ Just last week, it seemed like all I was going to need was a webserver and something to run TypeScript, now there’s all this stuff about tech stacks and databases and endless tools to run frameworks to manage tools for running frameworks, then I’ve gotta figure out how to deploy all of it… It seems like full-stack web development is a lot harder than it probably should be. I’m starting to understand why out of the 4ish billion people on the internet, there are only a few thousand developers actively making cool things on the net. # ⚓ Sublime_Text_snippets⠀⇛ Unfortunately, each snippet must be placed in its own separate file. If multiple snippets are in the same file, only the first one will work. # ⚓ Rogue⠀⇛ rogue, or at least the oldest version I could find at the time on the Internet, did not compile on modern systems. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

Welcome to episode 67 of Linux Out Loud. We fired up our mics, connected those headphones as we searched the community for themes to expound upon. We kept the banter friendly, the conversation somewhat on topic, and had fun doing it. o § Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Links ☛ Machine_Learning_in_Linux:_Bark_–_Text- Prompted_Generative_Audio⠀⇛ Bark is a transformer-based text-to-audio model. Bark can generate highly realistic, multilingual speech as well as other audio. # ⚓ TecMint ☛ Top_4_Google_Docs_Alternatives_for_Linux_in 2023⠀⇛ # ⚓ TecMint ☛ Lolcat_–_Display_Text_in_Rainbow_Colors_in_Linux Terminal⠀⇛ o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ # ⚓ Manuel Matuzovic ☛ Cascade_Layers_are_useless*⠀⇛ *if you don‘t understand the problems they solve and use them in combination with other solutions that tackle the same challenges albeit less elegantly and with the downside of limiting you in taking full advantage of selectors, one of the coolest features in CSS, and if you ignore the fact that they can help you organise and manage your own and third-party code. I’ve heard several people say they’ve tried Cascade Layers but didn’t see any changes, so they dropped them again. That can also easily happen to you when you structure your CSS in layers for the first time. I can explain why. # ⚓ Tim Bray ☛ CSS_Boost⠀⇛ The blog you are now looking at is looking a little different (better I think), especially on mobile devices, because the CSS has been improved. I have a report on the details, and unexpected lessons. What launched me into action was the acquisition of a Pixel 7, on which this blog’s text was unreadably tiny. I’m not sure what changed, but I got complaints from a couple of other people at the same time that I noticed it myself, so maybe it’s Android’s fault? Anyhow, couldn’t ignore that problem. On top of which, I had a list of minor gripes that had been on the to-do list for way too long. # ⚓ OMG! Linux ☛ Creating_Bootable_USBs_on_Linux?_Easy_with Impression⠀⇛ Impression has a simple, straight-forward UI that couldn’t be easier to use: you open the app, select an image, insert a drive, and flash a-haaaa – you’re away. You can see the steps in flow in these screenshots: [...] # ⚓ Bryan Lunduke ☛ How_To:_Install_9front⠀⇛ (a Plan 9 fork) # ⚓ Own HowTo ☛ How_to_Install_Gnome_on_Debian_12_“Bookworm”⠀⇛ In this tutorial, you will learn how to install gnome desktop environment on Debian 12 “Bookworm”.There are multiple ways to install gnome on Debian 12. In this tutorial, we are going to install gnome via tasksel and via apt package manager. tasksel is a tool that # ⚓ FOSSLinux ☛ How_to_view_hidden_files_and_folders_on_Linux⠀⇛ In the Linux file system, some files and directories are hidden for various reasons, often to prevent accidental modification or deletion. These items usually start with a period (‘.’). However, there are times when you might need to view or access these hidden files and folders. In this guide, we will explain how to do this, using both command line and graphical methods. # ⚓ FOSSLinux ☛ How_to_move_files_and_directories_in_Linux⠀⇛ Managing files effectively is a crucial part of any Linux user’s skill set. The ability to move files and directories around the system not only helps in organizing your data but is also a key part of tasks like system configuration and scripting. In this guide, we will look at the various commands and techniques you can use to move files and directories in a Linux environment. # ⚓ How_to_Search_For_a_File_in_Ubuntu_22.04_or_20.04 Terminal⠀⇛ Find the various ways with command examples to search and find files directly from the Ubuntu command terminal. o § Games⠀➾ # ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ New_Steam_Games_with_Native_Linux_Clients with_Deep_Blue_Fantasy_and_Guardians_of_Holme_–_2023-06-21 Edition⠀⇛ Between 2023-06-14 and 2023-06-21 there were 20 New Steam games released with Native Linux clients. For reference, during the same time, there were 250 games released for Windows on Steam, so the Linux versions represent about 8 % of total… o § Desktop Environments/WMs⠀➾ # § GNOME Desktop/GTK⠀➾ # ⚓ GTK:_Evolving_accessibility⠀⇛ Our last post on accessiblity in GTK4 was a while ago, time for an update. Thankfully, we have Lukáš Tyrychtr at Red Hat working on accessibility now. One of the bigger changes in accessibility from GTK3 to GTK4 was that we have a new application API that is modeled on the ARIA specs from the web. The high-level picture to keep in mind is… AT stands for accessibility technology here. In practice, that mainly means orca, the well-known screen reader (although there is a new contender, with the odilia project). The new layer provides APIs such as… * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § BSD⠀➾ # ⚓ Undeadly ☛ [CFT]_Major_pfsync(4)_Rewrite_on_the_Horizon⠀⇛ A major rewrite of pfsync(4), the state table synchronization tool for redundant pf(4) setups is in the works. # ⚓ FreeBSD ☛ Celebrating_30_Years_of_FreeBSD:_FreeBSD_For Students⠀⇛ Learning how to use and develop an entire operating system allows students to interact with more than just a kernel. Many courses teach separate elements that do not function as a full working system. Working with FreeBSD allows students to interact with some of the features that developers are most likely to engage with, and see how the system works in practice, not just in theory. This allows developers to see how their work functions in real- time on a contemporary system. The strong mentorship culture that already exists within the community is a strength of the FreeBSD operating system. Documentation is expansive and well maintained, encouraging self-growth and research through easily accessible system and tooling references. When submitting patches, feedback is quick and constructive, and maintainers are often willing to work with new contributors to ensure the any changes are made correctly. The flat contributor model encourages development work from newer users, from various backgrounds and expertise. o § SUSE/OpenSUSE⠀➾ # ⚓ SUSE’s Corporate Blog ☛ SLE_Base_Container_Images_15_SP5⠀⇛ The SLE BCI team is delighted to share that in conjunction with the launch of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP5, the Language and Application containers of SUSE Linux Enterprise Base Container Images (SLE BCI) have been upgraded to take advantage of the enhanced features offered the new product version. o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Linuxiac ☛ Red_Hat_Restricts_Access_to_Its_Source_Code⠀⇛ In an unexpected move, Red Hat announced that CentOS Stream will now be the sole repository for public RHEL-related source code releases. o § Canonical/Ubuntu Family⠀➾ # ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Linux_Mint_21.2_Beta_is_Available_to Download⠀⇛ The beta of Linux Mint 21.2 “Victoria” lands a couple of weeks ahead of the expected stable release, tentatively scheduled for mind July. Linux Mint 21.2 is still based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (as are all entries in the Linux Mint 21 series) but a sizeable set of enhancements, new features, and UI changes feature. # ⚓ Linux Mint ☛ Linux_Mint_21.2_“Victoria”_Cinnamon_–_BETA Release⠀⇛ This is the BETA release for Linux Mint 21.2 “Victoria” Cinnamon Edition. Linux Mint 21.2 is a long term support release which will be supported until 2027. It comes with updated software and brings refinements and many new features to make your desktop even more comfortable to use. # ⚓ Linux Mint ☛ Linux_Mint_21.2_“Victoria”_MATE_–_BETA Release⠀⇛ This is the BETA release for Linux Mint 21.2 “Victoria” MATE Edition. Linux Mint 21.2 is a long term support release which will be supported until 2027. It comes with updated software and brings refinements and many new features to make your desktop even more comfortable to use. # ⚓ Linux Mint ☛ Linux_Mint_21.2_“Victoria”_Xfce_–_BETA Release⠀⇛ This is the BETA release for Linux Mint 21.2 “Victoria” Xfce Edition.

New features: This new version of Linux […] # ⚓ Neowin ☛ Linux_Mint_21.2_Beta_ISOs_out_now [Ed: Post updated]⠀⇛ You can now download the Linux Mint 21.2 Beta from official third-party mirrors. The Mint project is still to officially announce the release, but we believe it will do so very soon. # ⚓ Beta News ☛ Ubuntu-based_Linux_Mint_21.2_‘Victoria’_BETA now_available_for_download⠀⇛ Linux Mint, one of the most popular Linux distributions, is back with an exciting release. Linux Mint 21.2 BETA, which is codenamed “Victoria,” is a long-term support release that promises extended support until 2027. This ensures stability and reliability for its users. This upcoming version brings a host of updated software, refinements, and new features, making it a compelling choice for desktop users. Linux Mint 12.2 BETA is based on Ubuntu 22.04 and uses kernel 5.15. # ⚓ Ubuntu ☛ Why_you_should_attend_the_Ubuntu_Summit⠀⇛ We are very excited about the upcoming Ubuntu Summit 2023! This year, we’ll be gathering in the beautiful city of Riga, Latvia, from November 3rd- 5th. There are many reasons to attend the Ubuntu Summit, including electrifying talks from industry leaders, invigorating hands-on workshops, and a unique opportunity to network with like-minded people from across the open-source world. o § Devices/Embedded⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ The_IBASE_EC3500_is_a_computing_system_for AI_Applications⠀⇛ Today, IBASE revealed an embedded platform powered by the NVIDIA Jetson AGX ORIN modules, designed for AI applications in smart retail, healthcare, manufacturing, and other industries. The EC3500 is also equipped with 1x 10 GbE LAN, 1x HDMI 2.1 port and many other expansion ports. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Punched_Cards_Are_In_The_Cloud,_With_This Arduino⠀⇛ Grizzled veterans of the computing industry will relate stories of submitting projects on stacks of punched cards, something those of us who stored their 8-bit works on audio cassettes could only imagine. But for those who fancy experimenting with the format it’s still possible to make a basic card reader using LEDs and light sensors, as [Nino Ivanov] has done using an Arduino Uno as the brains. And these aren’t just for show, each of his cards holds a LISP program that runs in a cloud service. # ⚓ Arduino ☛ Meet_Arduino_Pro_at_tinyML_EMEA_Innovation_Forum 2023⠀⇛ On June 26th-28th, the Arduino Pro team will be in Amsterdam for the tinyML EMEA Innovation Forum – one of the year’s major events for the world where AI models meet agile, low-power devices. # ⚓ Jeff Geerling ☛ How_I_installed_TrueNAS_on_my_new_ASUSTOR NAS⠀⇛ Once you’ve made a backup of ADM from the eMMC, you could erase the eMMC drive and install Linux on top of it. But that’s a bad idea, because (a) that eMMC drive is only 8 GB, which means you could run out of space on it pretty easily, and (b) it’s easier to leave that volume in place and just boot from an external USB drive. # ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ My_Pentium_1’s_phantom_hard_disk⠀⇛ My childhood PC has started exhibiting strange behaviour with its internal hard drives. Any OS I boot reports seeing two internal drives, even when only one physical CompactFlash card is present. It didn’t do this before, and I’m stumped as to why. * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ The Fosstodon Hub ☛ Facebook,_Fosstodon_&_The_Fediverse⠀⇛ Mike and I have been asked, multiple times, about what Fosstodon’s position is on Facebook potentially joining the Fediverse. If you’re not aware, the TL;DR is that Facebook, or their parent company, Meta, is planning to create a Twitter clone that will support ActivityPub (more here). That means that Facebook, or some semblance of it, could be coming to a Mastodon instance near you. Needless to say, this has a lot of folk on Mastodon a little worried – hence the constant stream of messages to myself and Mike asking what we, as admins of Fosstodon, plan to do about it. o ⚓ It’s FOSS ☛ FOSS_Weekly_#23.25:_ONLYOFFICE,_Clipboard_App,_Bash Variables_and_More_Linux_Stuff⠀⇛ The bash basic series continues and so does the Linux learning. o ⚓ Venture Beat ☛ Aerospike_invades_the_graph_database_space_with_a little_help_from_Apache_TinkerPop⠀⇛ Aerospike is expanding its database capabilities with its Aerospike Graph database, which brings graph data model capabilities. o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ Earthly ☛ Cross-Compiling_for_Raspberry_Pi:_Getting_Started and_Troubleshooting⠀⇛ We’re Earthly. We make building software simpler and therefore faster using containerization. This article covers cross compiling. If you’re someone who builds software often, you might want to check us out and see if Earthly can help you build faster and easier. # ⚓ Steve Kemp ☛ Simple_toy_languages⠀⇛ I’m kinda tempted to port one of them to Z80 assembly, and see if I can get it running under CP/ M. I guess I could add a REPL for interactive use, though without actual hardware connected to my single-board computer it might all feel a little pointless.

We all do it—some of us want to read paywalled articles, so we try to find ways around the paywall. We hate distractions, so some of us turn on ad blockers. We don’t want to pay for every cable channel or streaming service, so we load up torrent programs (unless you’re Gen Z, then you may not know what they are). In many ways, the recent debate around Reddit has been a discussion of infrastructure and freeloading. Who’s getting the free ride? And who’s stealing resources from whom? In many ways, Reddit represents a microcosm of how the [Internet] works when it comes to people taking advantage of free resources. So with that in mind, today’s Tedium ponders freeloaders and free-riders in the digital era. — Ernie @ Tedium o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] Sam Rose ☛ Hashing⠀⇛ As a programmer, you use hash functions every day.

But what is a hash function, and how do they work? In this post, we’re going to demystify hash functions. We’re going to start by looking at a simple hash function, then we’re going to learn how to test if a hash function is good or not, and then we’re going to look at a real-world use of hash functions: the hash map. o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Axios ☛ Middle_schoolers’_reading_and_math_scores_plummet⠀⇛ Driving the news: The decline in math scores last year was the biggest in the past 50 years, according to newly released federal data. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Domination_has_a_lead_time⠀⇛ Suppose that someone makes a prediction like ‘PCIE 5.0 will dominate the datacenter in five years’ (as a hypothetical example).

All up charities recorded revenue of $190 million, of which $9.7 billion was distributed in grants and donations to those in need, according to a report by the sector regulator released Thursday. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] Seattle Times ☛ How_Microsoft_moves_profits_offshore to_cut_its_tax_bill⠀⇛ Court documents in a case between Microsoft and the IRS provide a detailed look at how the company, like other multinational corporations, has created a complex structure that allows it to minimize its tax bill. # ⚓ Paolo Melchiorre ☛ 2023_Python_Software_Foundation_Board Nomination⠀⇛ While I’ve been involved with the Python community for more than 15 years, I only recently realized (getting over my imposter syndrome) that I, too, could contribute directly to PSF. # ⚓ Vice Media Group ☛ Reddit_Moderators_Are_Protesting_By Changing_Their_Communities_to_NSFW⠀⇛ From June 12 to the 14th, thousands of subreddits turned their communities private, locking out hundreds of millions of users in protest of new fees for accessing the site’s API. Third-party app developers, researchers, and developers use the site’s API to build tools and collect data, but in most cases, the fees would be too exorbitant to continue that work. The developers for popular third party Reddit app Apollo said it would cost more than $20 million per year to keep running, and shut down as a result. Unpaid, volunteer moderators, especially, rely on third-party apps to keep their subreddits running safely in compliance with Reddit’s terms of use. # ⚓ International Business Times ☛ Twitter_employees_sue_the social_media_company_over_unpaid_bonuses⠀⇛ Attorney for the plaintiffs, Shannon Liss-Riordan says Twitter owes “tens of millions of dollars” in bonuses. It is worth noting that the social media giant has a cash performance bonus plan that is paid every year. A Bloomberg report claims Twitter staff were promised to be paid 50 per cent of their target accounts in the form of bonuses ahead of Musk’s acquisition of the company. However, the company failed to pay at least half of the target amounts for last year’s bonuses. # ⚓ [Repeat] New York Times ☛ In_Overhaul,_Alibaba’s_Boss_Moves Aside_and_Two_Co-Founders_Step_Up⠀⇛ Alibaba is reshuffling its leadership at a critical time. The company was the highest-profile target of a crackdown by Beijing on the power of China’s biggest tech companies. Its stock price has tumbled from its 2020 peak. Alibaba’s founder, the billionaire Jack Ma, was driven out of the public eye in 2020 after criticizing Chinese regulators for stifling innovation at Ant Group, Alibaba’s financial technology sister company. After his remarks, Chinese officials suspended plans for Ant Group to sell stock in an initial public offering. In 2021 Chinese antitrust regulators fined Alibaba $2.8 billion for preventing merchants from selling their goods on other shopping platforms. # ⚓ Craig Murray ☛ Paradise_Lost⠀⇛ Please start by listening to this brief BBC interview. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Shame,_Shame,_Shame:_You_But_Indict Yourselves⠀⇛ Talk about “conduct unbecoming”: A vengeful, ignominious GOP just barely passed a farcical censure resolution against Adam Schiff for doing his duty, confronting “one of the most egregious abuses of presidential power in our history,” and spearheading Trump’s impeachment. As furious Dems blasted the rare censure as “deflection, retaliation, and distraction” from Trump’s crimes, a stately Schiff dismissed “this hollow sop to the MAGA crowd” and thanked a clownish GOP for placing him “among the truth-tellers.” # ⚓ teleSUR ☛ Russia_and_Qatar_Develop_Joint_Projects_Worth $1.9_Billion⠀⇛ Moscow is ready to develop new air routes with its “key partner in the Middle East.” # ⚓ New York Times ☛ What_to_Know_About_Modi’s_Visit_and_U.S.- India_Relations⠀⇛ The visit has big implications for U.S.-India relations as President Biden seeks to shore up an alliance against Russia’s aggression and China’s economic influence. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Special_Counsel_Who_Hunted_for_a_Deep- State_Conspiracy_Presents_Muted_Findings⠀⇛ John H. Durham, the Trump-era special counsel, criticized the F.B.I. during a six-hour hearing before the House Judiciary Committee. # ⚓ Axios ☛ House_votes_to_censure_Trump_antagonist_Adam Schiff⠀⇛ The House on Wednesday voted largely along party lines to pass a Republican measure censuring_Rep. Adam_Schiff (D-Calif.). Why it matters:It’s a significant rebuke of a vocal Trump critic by the House Republican majority. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Three_drones_reportedly_downed_‘while_approaching military_warehouses’_in_Moscow_region_—_Meduza⠀⇛ Three drones were downed using electronic warfare systems in the Moscow region, Russian law enforcement sources told state media on Wednesday. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Russian_authorities_open_criminal_case_under_law against_‘driving_a_person_to_suicide’_over_death_of_jailed activist_—_Meduza⠀⇛ The Russian Investigative Committee has opened a criminal case over the death of activist Anatoly Berezikov, who died in a prison in the country’s Rostov region last week after his lawyer alleged that the prison authorities were torturing him. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Russia_bans_World_Wildlife_Fund,_accusing_the environmental_group_of_undermining_Arctic_development_— Meduza⠀⇛ Russia’s Prosectuor General has outlawed the local operations of the World Wildlife Fund, designating the group as an “undesirable organization” on the grounds that it poses a threat to Russia’s national security: [...] # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Constitutional_Court_of_Russia_refuses_to_repeal law_on_‘discrediting’_the_army_—_Meduza⠀⇛ The Constitutional Court of Russia rejected claims that the law on “discrediting” the Russian Army is unconstitutional, refusing to repeal the law. # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Russian_security_forces_search_home_of_lawyer representing_activist_who_died_in_prison_—_Meduza⠀⇛ Russian security officials searched the home of Irina Gak, the lawyer who represented activist Anatoly Berezikov, who died in a prison in the country’s Rostov region last week, local media reported on Thursday morning. # ⚓ Michael West Media ☛ Revealed:_Peter_Costello’s_Future_Fund has_$280m_punt_on_the_pokies,_lotteries_and_online_gambling⠀⇛ The Future Fund manages more than $200 billion of public sector funds but does so with a notorious penchant for secrecy. This third instalment in a series from Rex Patrick and Philip Dorling shines a spotlight on the fund’s surprising gambling stake.   Former Liberal Treasurer and current Future Fund Board of Guardians chair Peter Costello once confessed to being “a bit of a gambling man, a bit of a punter”. But who would have imagined that under his stewardship the Future Fund would have staked more than $280 million of taxpayers’ funds on companies that extract wealth from the community and cause harm through gambling.  # ⚓ Michael West Media ☛ PwC_breach_of_trust_‘deeply disappointing’:_Chalmers⠀⇛ Treasurer Jim Chalmers has labelled findings that consulting firm PwC was calculating in using confidential information for clients as “deeply disappointing”. A parliamentary committee found PwC engaged in a “calculated” breach of trust by using confidential information for tax avoidance. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ New_Zealand_to_ease_migration_rules_to lure_more_skilled_workers⠀⇛ It will chart a faster route to giving them permanent residency. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ What_US_asylum_changes_mean⠀⇛ The United States, traditionally a leader in offering refuge, received the world’s most asylum applications last year. Yet a new rule limits access to asylum at the southern border. # ⚓ Atlantic Council ☛ Imran_Khan_on_the_failed_India-Pakistan thaw_and_why_he’s_‘prepared_for_everything’—even_death⠀⇛ The former Pakistani prime minister spoke with the Atlantic Council about unsuccessful plans to meet with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and much more. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ An_India_of_‘trusted_collaboration’?⠀⇛ A state visit to Washington by the country’s leader comes with hints of shared values, not just shared interests. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Why_Modi’s_Radio_Show_Is_Vital_to_His Popularity_in_India⠀⇛ The Indian leader, who visits Washington this week, has softened his image at home with an old- fashioned radio show, which feeds a vast social media apparatus. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ World_Refugee_Day:_A_crisis_builds,_testing individuals_and_nations⠀⇛ On World Refugee Day, our charts highlight the flows of displaced people, as a U.N. report calls for more global action to help. # ⚓ Reason ☛ World_Refugee_Day_is_a_Good_Time_to_Consider Expanding_the_Ridiculously_Narrow_Legal_Definition_of “Refugee”⠀⇛ The definition excludes a vast range of people fleeing horrific violence and oppression. # ⚓ LRT ☛ Estonia_becomes_the_first_Baltic_state_to_legalise same-sex_marriage⠀⇛ On Tuesday, the Estonian parliament voted in favour of legalising same-sex marriage, becoming the first Baltic state to do so. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Estonia_Parliament_passes_bill_allowing_gender- neutral_marriage⠀⇛ Estonia’s Parliament, the Riigikogu, passed a bill Monday to allow gender-neutral marriage in the country. The bill was sent to President Alar Karis for approval on Tuesday. Estonia is the first Baltic nation and the first former Soviet Union nation to legalize gender-neutral or same-sex marriage. # ⚓ RFA ☛ High_stakes_in_Vietnam’s_Central_Highlands⠀⇛ Land and religious freedom remain at the heart of Montagnard grievances, but there are others. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Arrested_–_or_beaten_–_for_wearing_flowers_to_mark Aung_San_Suu_Kyi’s_birthday⠀⇛ Jailed Burmese leader often appeared in public with flowers in her hair # ⚓ RFA ☛ Analysts:_Thailand’s_talks_with_Myanmar_military expose_ASEAN_divisions⠀⇛ They also question why the pro-military government organized the meeting when it was drubbed in the May election. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Samoa’s_plan_for_Chinese_visitors_stumbles_on minister’s_ties_to_tour_company⠀⇛ Samoa’s prime minister says the government has cut ties to a Hong Kong company that chartered flights # ⚓ LRT ☛ Vytautas_Šustauskas,_former_Kaunas_mayor_and_‘king_of beggars’,_passes_away⠀⇛ The colourful former politician known for his protests against high-society balls, has passed away aged 78. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Hong_Kong_pollster_to_curb_questions on_sensitive_topics,_incl._Tiananmen_crackdown,_Taiwan⠀⇛ A Hong Kong pollster has said that it will scrap about a quarter of its usual survey questions and make private the results of some others, with those relating to the Tiananmen crackdown among the affected topics. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ Man_jailed_for_murder_wins_legal_challenge over_ban_on_speaking_to_media⠀⇛ Mark Alexander says he was wrongfully convicted and wants to speak to a podcast about his case. # ⚓ Vox ☛ The_Fifth_Circuit_comes_for_the_First_Amendment_right to_protest⠀⇛ For more than four years, a rogue federal appeals court has given life to a highly dubious lawsuit targeting DeRay Mckesson, a prominent figure within the Black Lives Matter movement. The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit’s decisions would not only strip Mckesson of his First Amendment-protected right to organize mass protests against police violence, it threatens all Americans’ ability to organize any protest. On Friday, the Fifth Circuit handed down its latest decision in Doe v. Mckesson, the case at the heart of this crusade against the First Amendment. Under the Fifth Circuit’s latest approach, a protest organizer who commits even a minor legal violation — in this case the court faulted Mckesson for leading a protest “in front of the Baton Rouge police station” and for attempting “to block a public highway” — may potentially be held liable for the illegal actions of someone else who attended the protest. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Reddit_Experiments_With_Removing_Mods,_Blocking Attempts_To_Switch_Subs_To_NSFW⠀⇛ Reddit’s ongoing war with its volunteer moderators (and users) has moved up a notch. As you’ll recall, last week, the ever tone-deaf CEO Steve Huffman insisted that the protests were just a blip, would be over by last Wednesday, and were having no real impact on the site anyway. # ⚓ Authorities_impose_15-day_ban_on_public_activities,_events in_Hakkari⠀⇛ The Hakkari Governorate enforced restrictions on various activities, such as public meetings, demonstrations, sit-ins, press statements, hunger strikes, setting up stands, and releasing sky lanterns. o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ BIA Net ☛ Journalists_convicted_over_reporting_on_bribery allegations_against_Erdoğan’s_former_lawyer⠀⇛ Following a recess, the court announced its verdict, acquitting Sezer and Ergün of the charges of “insult” and “libel” but sentencing them separately to 1 year and 8 months in prison for “unlawful disclosure of data obtained by recording non-public conversations through the press and media.” The court suspended the sentences for both journalists. o § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ # ⚓ YLE ☛ Finland’s_new_Interior_Minister_promises_policy_u- turn_on_immigration,_refugees⠀⇛ “We will tighten all the conditions to come to Finland, to stay here and to be in Finland,” Mari Rantanen of the Finns Party told Yle on Tuesday morning. # ⚓ Quartz ☛ Bernie_is_going_after_working_conditions_in Amazon’s_warehouses⠀⇛ Bernie Sanders has announced a US Senate investigation into working conditions at Amazon warehouses in an open letter to Andy Jassy, the e- commerce giant’s CEO. # ⚓ Axios ☛ America’s_housing_shortage_is_keeping_home_prices high⠀⇛ There aren’t_enough_homes in the U.S. That’s one big reason house prices have barely fallen since the Fed’s rate hikes sent mortgage_costs_soaring. Why it matters:Except for the very wealthy who can afford to buy whatever they want, the housing shortage touches almost every aspect of Americans’ lives and livelihoods and hits the overall economy, too. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ 41_Dead_After_Riot_Erupts_in_Honduran Women’s_Prison⠀⇛ The inmates were found shot or burned to death in the latest spasm of violence in the country’s troubled prison system. # ⚓ New Yorker ☛ What_Justice_John_Paul_Stevens’s_Papers_Reveal About_Affirmative_Action⠀⇛ Twenty years ago, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor wrote, in a draft opinion, that white applicants could not be favored over Asian Americans. Why did she delete those lines—and why did Justice Clarence Thomas adopt them in his own opinion? # ⚓ Bridge Michigan ☛ Child_marriage_is_legal_in_Michigan. House_votes_to_ban_‘despicable_practice’⠀⇛ An estimated 5,259 minors were married in Michigan between 2000 and 2018, and nearly 300,000 nationwide, according to researchers. Many involved “a spousal age difference that should have been considered a sex crime,” Michael Nyenhuis, President and CEO of UNICEF USA, previously told Michigan lawmakers in written committee testimony. “Child marriage is a violation of human rights and comes at a cost society cannot afford,” he said. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Apple_stomped_all_over_NYC_store_workers’ union_rights,_judge_rules⠀⇛ Apple destroyed union flyers and interrogated its staff in New York City about their unionization efforts, a watchdog has ruled. In a decision issued yesterday, National Labor Relations Board judge Lauren Esposito said Apple broke American employment law in an “unprecedented manner” at its World Trade Center store. # ⚓ YLE ☛ Finland’s_startup_sector_criticises_new_government’s hardline_immigration_policy⠀⇛ The government’s plans create the impression Finland has a hostile attitude towards foreigners, according to the Finnish Startup Community. # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Hong_Kong_issues_arrest_warrant_for man_who_missed_court_dates_for_2019_illegal_assembly_charge⠀⇛ A Hong Kong court has issued an arrest warrant for a man facing trial over an illegal assembly during the 2019 extradition bill protests, after the defendant missed two days of trial in a row. # ⚓ The Nation ☛ We_Are_Born_to_Be_Happy⠀⇛ # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ DOJ_Report_Exposes_Minneapolis_Police_Civil Rights_Violations_Amid_Call_for_Community_Role_in_Reforms⠀⇛ We speak with Minneapolis City Councilmember Robin Wonsley, the first Black Democratic Socialist on the City Council, about the Justice Department’s newly released probe into the city’s police department that found systemic problems with discrimination and excessive force and concluded: “The patterns and practices we observed made what happened to George Floyd possible.” Wonsley says “none of this is new,” and demands a strong community role in public safety reforms expected to follow the report. # ⚓ CHP_leader_faces_prosecution_as_legislative_immunity_ends after_failed_presidential_bid⠀⇛ Several former HDP deputies also face legal proceedings after not being re-elected. # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Minnesota_Miracle:_Democrats_Use Supermajority_to_Pass_Abortion,_Voting,_Labor,_Tenant_Reforms &_More⠀⇛ The Democratic majority in Minnesota’s state Legislature, along with Democratic Governor Tim Walz, have enacted sweeping progressive reforms this year, with many praising the ambitious agenda as a “Minnesota Miracle.” Democrats have successfully codified abortion rights; protections for transgender people; driver’s licenses for undocumented residents; new gun control rules; the restoration of voting rights for previously incarcerated people; a $1 billion investment in affordable housing that includes rent assistance; stronger protections for workers seeking to unionize; and paid family, medical and sick leave, among other measures. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Andrew_Tate’s_Indictment_in_Romania: Here’s_What_to_Know⠀⇛ The online influencer and his brother, Tristan Tate, appeared in court for the first time since their indictment on charges including human trafficking. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ 37_Injured_in_Paris_After_Explosion_at Apartment_Building⠀⇛ The blast, in the Fifth Arrondissement of the French capital, started a blaze that firefighters quickly brought under control.

Google described Microsoft’s licensing restrictions as a “complex web” that prevents businesses from diversifying their enterprise software vendors. Google also said such control represents a significant national security and cybersecurity risk. It highlighted successive cyberattacks involving Microsoft products, including the SolarWinds breach. Microsoft and Google both have active cybersecurity practices that respond to and research cyber threats. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Google_formally_accuses_monopolist Microsoft_of_trapping_people_in_its_cloud⠀⇛ The letter, obtained by CNBC, takes issue with Microsoft using its Windows Server and Office products to keep clients on Azure, and argues that Microsoft’s control presents a national security risk. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ F.T.C._Sues_Amazon_for_Tricking_Users_Into Subscribing_to_Prime⠀⇛ In its lawsuit, the F.T.C. argued that Amazon had “duped millions of consumers” into enrolling in Prime by using “manipulative, coercive or deceptive” design tactics on its website known as “dark patterns.” And when consumers wanted to cancel, Amazon “knowingly complicated” the process with byzantine procedures. “Amazon tricked and trapped people into recurring subscriptions without their consent, not only frustrating users but also costing them significant money,” Ms. Khan said in a statement. # § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ The_Stevens_Papers:_A_Peek_Behind_The Scenes_At_The_Making_Of_Lotus,_Eldred,_And_Grokster⠀⇛ The recently released files of the late Associate Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens reveal interesting details concerning some of the Court’s significant copyright decisions, but leave important questions unanswered. Justice Stevens (1920-2019) left his papers to the Library of Congress, which opened them to the public in May 2023. (See here for a blog post on Justice Stevens’ important decisions relating to information technology.) While the papers to do not provide additional information about Justice Stevens’ pivotal role in the shaping of the Sony v.

All users of the 6.3 kernel series must upgrade. The updated 6.3.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/ git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-6.3.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/ linux-s... thanks, greg k-h # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_6.1.35⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_5.15.118⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_5.10.185⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_5.4.248⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_4.19.287⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_4.14.319⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Addressing_priority_inversion_with_proxy_execution⠀⇛ Priority inversion comes about when a low-priority task holds a resource that is needed by a higher- priority task, with the result that the wrong task is the only one that can run. This problem is arguably most acute in realtime settings, but it can happen in just about any system that has multiple tasks running. The variety of scheduling classes provided by the Linux kernel make handling priority inversion a difficult problem; the latest version of the proxy execution patch series points toward a possible solution. To understand priority inversion, imagine that a low-priority, background task acquires a mutex. If a realtime task happens to need that same mutex, it will find itself blocked, waiting for the low- priority task to let go of it. Should yet another task, with medium priority, come along, it may prevent the low-priority task from executing at all, meaning that the mutex will not be released and the realtime task will be blocked indefinitely. That is exactly the sort of outcome that the priority mechanism is intended to prevent. A classic solution to priority inversion is priority inheritance. If a high-priority task finds itself blocked on a resource held by another, it lends its priority to the owning task, allowing that task to complete its work and release the resource. The Linux kernel has supported priority inheritance for a long time, but that is not a complete solution to the problem. Deadline scheduling complicates the situation, in that it is not priority based. Since a task running in the deadline class has no priority, it cannot lend that priority to another task. So priority inheritance will not work with tasks using deadline scheduling. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Yet_another_memory_allocator_for_executable_code⠀⇛ The kernel is an increasingly dynamic body of code, where new executable text can show up at any time. Currently, the task of allocating memory for new kernel code falls on the subsystem that first brought the ability to load code into a running kernel: the module loader. This patch set from Mike Rapoport looks to move the responsibility for these allocations to a new “JIT allocator”, addressing a number of rough edges in the process. In order to support the ability to load modules at run time, the kernel had to gain the ability to allocate memory to hold those modules. Early on, that was just a matter of calling vmalloc() to obtain the requisite number of pages and enabling execute permission for the resulting pages. Over time, though, things have grown more complicated — as they so often seem to do. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Deadline_servers_as_a_realtime_throttling replacement⠀⇛ The CPU scheduler’s one job at any given time is to run the task that has the strongest claim to the CPU. There are many factors that complicate that job, not the least of which is that the “strongest claim” is sometimes a bit of a fuzzy concept. Realtime throttling, a mechanism designed to keep a runaway realtime task from monopolizing the CPU, is one case where developers have concluded that the task with, ostensibly, the highest priority should not actually be the one that runs. But realtime throttling has rarely pleased anybody; the deadline-server infrastructure patches posted by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira are the latest attempt to find a better solution. The POSIX realtime scheduling classes are conceptually simple; at any given time, the task with the highest priority runs to the exclusion of anything else. In the real world, though, the rule enables a runaway realtime task to take over the system to the point that the only way to recover it may be to pull the plug. Power failures, as it turns out, have an even higher priority than realtime tasks. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Two_VFS_topics⠀⇛ Two different topics concerning the virtual filesystem (VFS) layer were the subject of a session led by VFS co-maintainer Christian Brauner at the 2023 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory- Management and BPF Summit. As might be guessed, it was a filesystem-track session; Brauner had three separate items he planned on bringing up, but the discussion on the first two consumed the whole half-hour—and then some. A mechanism to avoid media-change races when mounting loop (or loopback) and other devices was disposed of fairly quickly, but the discussion around the mount-beneath feature went on at length. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Mounting_images_inside_a_user_namespace⠀⇛ There has long been a desire to enable users to mount filesystem images without requiring privileges, but the security implications of allowing it are seriously concerning. Few, if any, kernel filesystems are hardened against maliciously crafted images, after all. Lennart Poettering led a filesystem session at the 2023 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory-Management and BPF Summit where he presented a possible path forward. He started with an overview of the problem, noting that “everybody wants to be able to mount disk images that contain arbitrary filesystems” in user space, without needing to be root. Since malicious images could crash the kernel—or worse—the only way to do that is to establish some trust in the image before it gets mounted. He talked about some components that the systemd developers want to add that would allow container managers and other unprivileged user-space programs to accomplish this. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Hardening_magic_links⠀⇛ There are some “magic links” in kernel pseudo- filesystems, like procfs, that can be—have been— (ab)used to cause security problems, such as a container-confinement breach in 2019. Aleksa Sarai has long been working on ways to blunt the impact of these magic links. He led a filesystem session at the 2023 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory- Management and BPF Summit to discuss the status of those efforts. Sarai said that he worked on hardening for these links as part of adding the openat2() system call, but he removed some of that work before it was merged because the semantics were unclear. So, he wanted to have a discussion on those pieces to try to ensure that they make sense to everyone, that attendees are happy with them, and to avoid “having things thrown at me when I post them to the list”. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Retrieving_mount_and_filesystem_information_in_user space⠀⇛ In something of a follow-on from the mount- operation monitoring session the previous day, Christian Brauner led another discussion about providing user space with a mechanism to get current mount information on day two of the 2023 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory-Management and BPF Summit. The session also continued on from one at last year’s summit—and likely others before that. There are two separate proposals for ways to retrieve this kind of information, one from Miklos Szeredi and another from David Howells, both of whom were present this year; Brauner’s intent was to try to reach some kind of agreement on the way forward in the session. # ⚓ LWN ☛ Reports_from_OSPM_2023,_part_1⠀⇛ The fifth conference on Power Management and Scheduling in the Linux Kernel (abbreviated “OSPM”) was held on April 17 to 19 in Ancona, Italy. LWN was not there, unfortunately, but the attendees of the event have gotten together to write up summaries of the discussions that took place and LWN has the privilege of being able to publish them. Reports from the first day of the event appear below. Reports from day 2 are also available. o § Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ Medevel ☛ 17_Free_and_Open-source_Web-based_Cloud_File Manager⠀⇛ An Open-source Web-based File Manager is a type of web application that enables users to manage files on a remote server via a web browser. # ⚓ Medevel ☛ 19_Free_and_Open-source_UPnP_and_DLNA_Media Servers_To_Build_Your_Home_Entertainment_System⠀⇛ UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) are essential protocols for the modern interconnected world.

A few days after installing the OS, I realized I’d forgotten that I always share my Public folder to my internal network, so I can easily share files between machines (without having to email them or bounce them between machines and any given cloud service). I quickly realized that Ubuntu Budgie not only didn’t have a simple means of sharing folders to a network, it also didn’t include a GUI method for sharing printers. Given my wife is always printing out knitting patterns, return labels, and other bits of information (and the only printer in the house is attached to my desktop), I had to get that printer shared before I was inundated with things to print for her. # ⚓ ZDNet ☛ How_to_install_Steam_on_any_Ubuntu-based_Linux distro_so_you_can_play_a_world_of_games⠀⇛ Steam is one of the best things to come along for gaming on Linux.

Critical to a functioning democracy, it empowers communities and shines a light on the real repercussions of issues debated on the national stage. Yet, as American Journalism Project (AJP)’s Chief Advancement Officer Patty Slutsky says, “There has been a market failure in ensuring everyone has access to the information they need, despite the pressing need for a healthy and robust local news system.” The U.S. lost more than 360 newspapers between late 2019 and May 2022, according to a Northwestern University report, leaving an information void in many communities. o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ # ⚓ TecAdmin ☛ Bash_Script_to_Print_Fibonacci_Sequence⠀⇛ The Fibonacci sequence is an interesting mathematical concept, used in various aspects of computer science, from algorithms to database systems.

Still, the songs made me think of something Pete Seeger once said: “The truth is a rabbit in a bramble patch. All you can do is circle around saying, ‘It’s somewhere in there,’ as you point in different directions. But you can’t put your hands on its pulsing, furry little body.” The principle of unknowability that Seeger captured in his folksy parable certainly applies to the elusive work on the new album and, more broadly, to the whole of Russell’s music. Ephemeral, unpredictable, voluminous and yet incomplete, much of it unresolved and perhaps irresolvable, it’s a body of pulsing, furry music, the true nature of which can be awfully hard to grasp. o ⚓ New York Times ☛ When_Submersibles_Meet_the_Titanic,_James Cameron_Is_an_Inspiration⠀⇛ Cameron’s 1997 movie “Titanic” reinvigorated interest in the ill-fated ocean liner, feeding the mystique that spurs some wealthy experience chasers. o ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Desperate_Search_Underway_For_Lost_Titanic Submersible_With_5_on_Board⠀⇛ Time is short. o ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ The_Titanic_Sub_and_the_Enduring_Appeal_of_Extreme Tourism⠀⇛ Diving to the bottom of the ocean is risky.

As the general pace of technological improvement continues on we expect marginal decreases in costs, but every now and then a revolutionary piece of technology will drop the cost of something like a blood pressure monitor by over an order of magnitude. # ⚓ Defence Web ☛ South_Africa_extends_scrap_metal_export_ban⠀⇛ South Africa’s estimated R8 billion per annum illicit copper economy seems set to expand even further on the back of the country’s growing shift to renewable green energy and electric cars, brushing aside a “too little too late” scrap metal export ban that has just been extended for another six months. # ⚓ Tom’s Hardware ☛ Goals_of_‘Made_in_China_2025′_Are Unachievable:_Tsinghua_Professor⠀⇛ The Deputy Chairman of the China Semiconductor Industry Association does not believe in ‘Made in China 2025,’ providing statistics and analysis of where China’s homegrown efforts are falling short. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Repairing_A_$25,000_HP_Workstation_To_Run_Pac- Man⠀⇛ The microcomputer revolution of the 1970s and 1980s turned computers from expensive machines aimed at professionals into consumer products found in the average household. But there always remained a market for professional users, who bought equipment that was so far ahead of consumer gear it seemed to belong in a different decade. While a home computer enthusiast in 1981 might fork out a few hundred dollars for an 8-bit machine with 64 KB of memory, a professional could already buy a 32-bit workstation with 2.8 megabytes of RAM for the price of a brand-new sports car.

However, when this will happen is now in flux. In a note earlier this month, Microsoft said Windows 11 devices shipped next year will include the new Outlook for Windows as the default mailbox app, which will include both mail and calendar tools.

It absolutely makes my day. It’s also a steady source of suggestions on how to improve things. Yesterday I got an email from Santiago asking to add a “Random Article” function to Gemipedia to use for discovery. This will redirect you to random articles on Wikipedia. So when I went to add a `GetRandomArticle()` method to our Wikipedia API client, I was surprised to find it already existed! Turns out, I had added this functionality last year without directly exposing it to the user and I had completely forgotten! I used it to stress test my Wikipedia HTML parser. Wikipedia is full of gross HTML (Table’s used to t create 2 column layouts, etc.). # § Software Releases/Announcements⠀➾ # ⚓ Zond_0.4.0_release⠀⇛ I’ve release Zond version 0.4.0. Zond is a static capsule builder which works much like Jekyll, Hugo or Zola but for Gemini. It’s the software that builds and maintains this capsule.

Release binaries are available for Linux x86_64 and aarch64 and for FreeBSD on x86_64, and are available on Codeberg, it’s Github mirror and over gemini and spartan on this capsule. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.
