🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Fentanylware:_Who's_there?⦈_ Summary: TikTok, a weapon manufactured and managed by ByteDance, does much harm; we remind readers what ByteDance is really up to and cite a dozen news links about it THERE is not enough recognition that TikTok is a_dangerous_weapon which deserves_banning. For over a decade all the media scrutiny was directed at Twitter and GAFAM (or MAGMA, which includes LinkedIn, YouTube and Facebook after the “Meta” rebrand). “For ByteDance, there’s no need for a business model.”We don’t typically condone banning or “censoring” things, but in this case it’s like saying that issuing a call to ban nuclear weapons is a censorious action. We intend to keep reminding readers, at least once a week, what TikTok truly is. TikTok is not social control media but a tentacle of a spying operation, ByteDance. It’s controlled by China, contrary to what ByteDance tried to say some days ago [1- 2] (face-saving lies), and it is doing real harm to Western societies [3] while sporting so-called “Influencers” [4-5] (euphemism for shills, which it now bankrolls to lobby for ByteDance). For ByteDance, there’s no need for a business model. It’s just spying on billions of people. The Communist Party can cover the expenses. In fact, there are no sign of a commercial success (things get shut down again [6-8]), but the data stays forever. Moreover, the harm done to one’s surroundings is irreversible. TikTok divides society (see the examples published in Daily Links earlier today [9, 10]. It’s by design. It also encourages the so-called “users” to vandalise and harm their surroundings… unless they are in China or in close Chinese allies (see the documentary what ByteDance internally calls “spinach” vs “opium” TikTok). It controls behaviour. It can seed discord. The “app” makes an army of “zombies”. They are remotely conrrolled, in very large numbers (at scale). Consider our ongoing series about the ‘Cancel Culture’ Industry [1, 2, 3, 4]. “Even if the government does not ban TikTok, you really need to get TikTok out of your life and, if possible, out of the hands of loves ones.”There’s growing recognition in the West that TikTok harms kids’ minds. It also harms their bodies (incidentally, the famous Facebook whistleblower speaks about it again; Facebook too does both). A week ago, responding to this perception criris, TikTok_decided_to_“give_parents_even_more_control_over_what_their_teens_see”, but it’s actually ByteDance controlling what they see. While it’s nice to see YouTube and Twitter circling down the drain (among other social control networks), let’s not forget the threat which is ByteDance. Even if the government does not ban TikTok, you really need to get TikTok out of your life and, if possible, out of the hands of loves ones. █ Related/contextual items from the news: 1. ⚓ 2023-06-30TikTok_tries_to_convince_users_it’s_keeping_their_data_safe⠀⇛ 2. ⚓ 2023-06-30TikTok-owner_ByteDance_debuts_Ripple_music_creation_app⠀⇛ 3. ⚓ 2023-06-28_[Older]_Desperation_for_a_Viral_Moment_Is_Driving_Concerts Off_the_Rails⠀⇛ 4. ⚓ 2023-06-26_[Older]_Influencers_Gas_Up_Shein_After_Sketchy_Factory_Tour: No_Slave_Labor_Here!⠀⇛ 5. ⚓ 2023-06-28_[Older]_TikTok_Bankrolls_Influencers’_Lawsuit_Against Montana_Ban⠀⇛ 6. ⚓ 2023-06-27_[Older]_TikTok_Discontinues_BeReal_Clone,_Adds_Parental Filters⠀⇛ 7. ⚓ 2023-06-27_[Older]_TikTok_Is_Axing_an_In-App_Feature_Called_TikTok_Now That_Mirrored_BeReal⠀⇛ 8. ⚓ 2023-06-27_[Older]_TikTok_is_jumping_off_the_BeReal_bandwagon_by killing_TikTok_Now⠀⇛ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡄⣶⣶⣦⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣶⣶⣦⣶⣶⣶⣦⢰⣶⣶⣶⣶⣄⣶⣶⣶⣶⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣟⢻⣿⣿⣟⡛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢻⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢻⣿⣿⡟⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣯⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣧⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⠿⠇⠈⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠿⠿⠇⠸⠿⠿⠻⠿⠿⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠿⠿⠇⠘⠿⠿⠃⠸⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⢠⣴⡆⣿⣿⠇⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠰⣿⣿⣷⣝⡿⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣤⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣠⣿⡿⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢸⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⣿⡏⠁⠀⠀⠤⠖⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣤⣤⣤⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢸⣄⣀⣠⢤⣴⣿⡧⠀⣴⣤⣿⣿⣷⣦⣴⣿⣦⣤⣠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠈⠉⠛⠛⠻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣯⣷⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠛⠿⠛⠛⠿⣿⡿⠿⠻⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠛⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠛⠿⢿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠆⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣧⣤⡄⠀⠈⠋⠛⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀⣤⣼⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⡀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣟⣛⠻⠿⠿⢟⣻⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⢿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠋⠉⠛⠛⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⢸⣿⣿⢀⣴⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣠⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠀⢸⣿⣿⠀⣠⣶⣶⠖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⢰⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⡆⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⢠⣿⣿⡿⠉⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⡆⢸⣿⣿⣾⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠸⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⠇⢸⣿⣿⠟⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠸⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⠟⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⢸⣿⣿⠀⠈⢿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠹⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⢸⣿⣿⠀⠈⢿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣾⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣼⣿⣿⣿⣧⣾⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠃⠀⠉⣿⣿⣿⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣍⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡘⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⣨⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⡏⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠛⠋⠛⠛⠛⠁⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠉⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⠛⠋⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠋⠀⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠙⠛⠛⠛⠋⠛⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 223 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at http://techrights.org/2023/07/02/invidious-instances-under-attack/#comments Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/2023/07/02/invidious-instances-under-attack/ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 07.02.23⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Gemini_version_available_♊︎ ✐ Almost_a_Week_Later_Invidious_Instances_Still_Down,_Broken,_or_Shouting_Out for_Help_Because_Google/YouTube_Lawyers_and_Other_Staff_Wage_a_War_on_Free Software⠀✐ Posted in Google, Videos at 6:40 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz Invidious instances are gasping for air and shouting/calling for help this evening (screenshots taken minutes ago;

Google (or YouTube) is proactively hostile because it wants to impose [1] brainwashing and push add-ons [2-3]. YouTube is not free hosting. It’s neither free for creators nor is it free for viewers. YouTube is junk. It’s time to abandon it. Maybe use some legacy tools to access old YouTube material, but definitely look for another place (more information in the 10 links at the bottom). █ Related/contextual items from the news: 1. ⚓ 2023-06-30_[Older]_YouTube_Threatens_to_Cut_Off_Ad_Blocker_Users_After Just_Three_Ad-less_Vids⠀⇛ 2. ⚓ 2023-06-26_[Older]_YouTube_TV_expands_multiview_feature_while_Google tests_online-game_offering⠀⇛ 3. ⚓ 2023-06-24_[Older]_YouTube_is_reportedly_testing_online_games_for mobile_and_desktop⠀⇛ More information: 1.

Twitter_is_Effectively_Dead_and_Offline_to_People_Without_an_Account_in Twitter⠀✐ Posted in Deception at 7:37 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇istwitterdeadyet.info⦈_ Just like Vladimir Putin’s “special operation” in Ukraine, the “temporary measure” may be a permanent one (to boost or fake sign-ups, using a phony crisis) Summary: Twitter is going to be delisted from search engines and lurkers will stop going there; it has become a niche site with no business plan and erratic management that faces countless lawsuits MY Twitter account was always just a copy of what I had posted in identi.ca (and later JoinDiaspora). In 2019 I stopped participating in Twitter and in 2020 it escalated even further; by the start of 2022 I had already abandoned it completely; I dumped all social control media, altogether. “The fraudster (Elon Musk) got defrauded or at least fooled, for a change.”Looking back, I should have abandoned it earlier. In retrospect, my time was wasted. Twitter is a dumpster fire and there’s no way to recover from this. As a business, Twitter has truly massive debt (huge debt per capita or per head), it is stilllosing a lot of money (after mass layoffs of unprecedented scale), and even just keeping up with debt payments (the interest!) is infeasible. The interest rates went up by a lot. Paying as little as 5% interest on a debt like 14,000,000,000 US dollars is a lot. No wonder Twitter management thinks twice before paying its hosting bill and rent. The fools who bought this worthless, toxic asset probably have buyer’s guilt/ remorse but they can’t get themselves to just pull the plug and call it a “write-off”. They got conned. The fraudster (Elon Musk) got defrauded or at least fooled, for a change. He’s not smart at all. “A lot of people in the media want to see Twitter up in flames.”Looking at the past week’s news, Twitter is facing many lawsuits and lawyers aren’t cheap [1]. There’s a censorship problem [2] and Apple pulled out as an advertiser (it was the biggest advertiser). Now it just uses it for video hosting [3] and that’s expensive [4-5], so Apple is in effect offloading the costs. A week ago Musk was mocked for lying about free speech [6] and he might be lying about the latest change [7-11], which basically denies people like me reading my own tweets (I discarded my password, intentionally, and cannot log in). Will that change be undone, ever? Some people theorise he’s just trying to lure people who typically lurk into creating an account. He is trying to boast “growth”, even if that’s measured using bogus yardsticks. There’s plenty other negative publicity about Twitter dating a week back [12- 14]. Twitter has managed to become the “bad boy” or the villain. A lot of people in the media want to see Twitter up in flames. From a purely commercial point of view, there’s no reason to even keep it online anymore.

latest game project: FutureCast, created in partnership with the United Nations’ Global Pulse group. It’s a highly adaptable strategic forecasting tool that aims to explore “pathways of change” for different future scenarios by bringing together groups of stakeholders for a fun, insight- generating exercise. This week, we’re joined by Minke Meijnders and Tiina Neuvonen from UN Global Pulse, as well as our game design partner Randy Lubin from Leveraged Play, to discuss how the game came to be and the many things you can do with it. o ⚓ Terence Eden ☛ Ways_in_which_Royal_Mail_could_save_its_business⠀⇛ The facts are that the critical mass of letter delivery has gone. It isn’t coming back. Yes, I know your grandad likes receiving his bank statements in the post, and it’s occasionally nice to receive a postcard from your mum when she’s on holiday, but email and IM have comprehensively won. Sure, vinyl sales are up, but stamp collectors aren’t going to sustain this industry. Royal Mail should embrace this. The US Postal Service offers something called Informed Delivery. They email you a scan of the front of any envelopes they’re due to deliver. That – hopefully – tells you if your Very Important Letter is going to arrive today. o ⚓ Matt Rickard ☛ The_Circular_Startup_Economy⠀⇛ There are many situations in which this ends poorly — companies raise money to train large models that ultimately won’t convert to commercial value. On the other hand, there’s an argument that this symbiotic relationship enables companies to attack markets quicker and more effectively than if they went alone. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Gannett ☛ University_of_Cincinnati_gender_studies instructor_reprimanded_over_free_speech_complaint⠀⇛ In May, Nipper gave student Olivia Krolczyk 0/20 points for part of a final project in a class called Gender in Popular Culture for using the term “biological women” to describe non-trans female athletes. # ⚓ Gannett ☛ ‘A_lot_to_handle’:_UC_professor_at_center_of TikTok_controversy_speaks_out⠀⇛ The adjunct professor in the Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies department at the University of Cincinnati is the former instructor of Olivia Krolczyk. Krolczyk is the student who created a viral TikTok in which she denounced her professor (unnamed in the video) for giving her a failing grade on an assignment because Krolczyk used the term “biological women.” # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Bees_are_astonishingly_good_at_making decisions—and_our_computer_model_explains_how_that’s possible⠀⇛ We put tiny, harmless paint marks on the back of each bee, and filmed every visit a bee made to the flower array. We then used computer vision and machine learning to automatically extract the position and flight path of the bee. From this information, we could assess and precisely time every single decision the bees made. We found bees very quickly learned to identify the most rewarding flowers. They quickly assessed whether to accept or reject a flower, but perplexingly their correct choices were on average faster (0.6 seconds) than their incorrect choices (1.2 seconds). This is the opposite of what we expected. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Bluetooth_Battery_Monitors_That_Also_Monitor Your_Position,_Without_Asking⠀⇛ These days Bluetooth-based gadgets are everywhere, including for car and solar batteries. After connecting them up to the battery, you download the accompanying app on your smartphone, open it up and like magic you can keep tabs on your precious pile of chemistry that keeps things ticking along. Yet as [haxrob] discovered during an analysis, many of these devices will happily pass your location and other information along to remote servers. # ⚓ Tom’s Hardware ☛ Iran_Admits_Its_Quantum_Computer_Had_Zero Quantum_in_It⠀⇛ Three weeks after its “quantum computer turned US- manufactured, Amazon-sold ARM development board” made the news, Iran has finally officially acknowledged that it hadn’t actually showcased its quantum computing systems. # ⚓ Ken Shirriff ☛ The_complex_history_of_the_Intel_i960_RISC processor⠀⇛ The Intel i960 was a remarkable 32-bit processor of the 1990s with a confusing set of versions. Although it is now mostly forgotten (outside the many people who used it as an embedded processor), it has a complex history. It had a shot at being Intel’s flagship processor until x86 overshadowed it. Later, it was the world’s best-selling RISC processor. One variant was a 33-bit processor with a decidedly non-RISC object-oriented instruction set; it became a military standard and was used in the F-22 fighter plane. Another version powered Intel’s short-lived Unix servers. In this blog post, I’ll take a look at the history of the i960, explain its different variants, and examine silicon dies. This chip has a lot of mythology and confusion (especially on Wikipedia), so I’ll try to clear things up. # ⚓ New Yorker ☛ The_Titan_Submersible_Was_“an_Accident_Waiting to_Happen”⠀⇛ The primary task of a submersible is to not implode. The second is to reach the surface, even if the pilot is unconscious, with oxygen to spare. The third is for the occupants to be able to open the hatch once they surface. The fourth is for the submersible to be easy to find, through redundant tracking and communications systems, in case rescue is required. Only the fifth task is what is ordinarily thought of as the primary one: to transport people into the dark, hostile deep. [...] Until June 18th, a manned deep-ocean submersible had never imploded. But, to McCallum, Lahey, and other experts, the OceanGate disaster did not come as a surprise—they had been warning of the submersible’s design flaws for more than five years, filing complaints to the U.S. government and to OceanGate itself, and pleading with Rush to abandon his aspirations. As they mourned Nargeolet and the other passengers, they decided to reveal OceanGate’s history of knowingly shoddy design and construction. “You can’t cut corners in the deep,” McCallum had told Rush. “It’s not about being a disruptor. It’s about the laws of physics.” o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Vox ☛ The_WHO_is_about_to_declare_aspartame_can_cause cancer._Here’s_why_you_should_listen.⠀⇛ When American pharmaceutical company G.D. Searle first tried to get aspartame approved by the US US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1973, it was denied: Independent scientists alleged the product could cause a range of neurologic disorders, and some alleged the company hadn’t been entirely above-board in its safety testing. In January 1981, Ronald Reagan became the US president. His transition team included then-CEO of G.D. Searle, one Donald Rumsfeld. Although an independent FDA board warned that May that the drug might induce brain tumors, the agency’s newly installed director overruled them, and the FDA approved the product for consumer use that July. # ⚓ International Business Times ☛ According_to_recent_study children_who_read_for_pleasure_have_better_mental_health⠀⇛ The children that had begun reading for pleasure at an early age were shown to have better mental well- being, which was assessed by using various clinical scores, and reports from parents and teachers. From this, the researchers found that these children showed significantly fewer signs of stress and depression, improved attention spans and fewer behavioural problems, such as rule-breaking and aggression. When the researchers examined the brain scans of adolescents, they discovered that the participants who had begun reading for pleasure at a young age showed moderately larger brain areas and volumes, including the brain regions that play a critical role in cognitive functions. # ⚓ TwinCities Pioneer Press ☛ First_smoky_air,_now_clouds_of bugs._Winged_aphids_invade_New_York_City⠀⇛ As if the smoke and haze sweeping in from fires in Canada weren’t enough, some parts of New York City are swarming with flying insects. The explosion of winged aphids is both a nuisance and a source of curiosity for residents. The city’s Health Department says there is nothing to worry about. Some people caught in the swarms thought at first that the strange things in the air had drifted from wildfires in Canada. Entomologists say that’s not the case, but a warm winter and the smoke from the fires could be contributing to the plumes of bugs. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ NYC_Avoids_the_Worst_as_Canada_Wildfire Smoke_Worsens_Air_Quality_in_the_Midwest⠀⇛ The impact of the smoke was less severe than earlier this month and was most strongly felt in cities from Pittsburgh and Cleveland to Chicago and Detroit. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ New_draft_law_in_Indonesia_may_be putting_people’s_health_data_at_risk:_Experts⠀⇛ Under the Bill, the authorities can collect and use a wide range of citizens’ health data and process it outside the country. # ⚓ WhichUK ☛ Shocking_sugar_levels_in_high_street_iced_coffee blends_revealed⠀⇛ Some frappes from Caffè Nero, Costa and Starbucks contain more sugar than health experts say you should have in an entire day # ⚓ New York Times ☛ South_Korea_Changes_Age-Counting_Method⠀⇛ A South Korea law that went into effect on Wednesday standardized how the government counts ages, instantly making residents one or two years younger. o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ Sean Heelan ☛ Application_optimisation_with_LLMs:_Finding faster,_equivalent,_software_libraries.⠀⇛ So why use an LLM as a search interface when you could just Google for the same information? There are a couple of reasons. The first is that an LLM provides a much broader set of capabilities than just search. You can, for example, ask something like “Find me three alternative libraries, list the pros and cons of each, and then based on these pros and cons make a recommendation as to which I should use.”. Thus, we can condense the multistep process of Googling for software and benchmarks, interpreting the results, and coming up with a recommendation, into a single step. The second reason is that because LLMs have a natural language input/output interface, it is far easier to programatically solve the problem and make use of the result than if we had to use Google’s API, scrape web pages, extract information, and then produce a report. # ⚓ Andy Baio ☛ Twitter_bug_causes_self-DDOS_tied_to_Elon Musk’s_emergency_blocks_and_rate_limits:_“It’s_amateur hour”⠀⇛ Yesterday, Twitter started blocking all logged-out access to Twitter, requiring signing in to view any tweet or profile. Elon Musk called it a “temporary emergency measure,” claiming they “were getting data pillaged so much that it was degrading service for normal users!” # ⚓ NYPost ☛ Thousands_of_Twitter_users_report_outage_as_site caps_number_of_posts_people_can_view⠀⇛ The outages began cropping up Saturday morning in the wake of owner Elon Musk implementing new restrictions on how many tweets users could view, with most of its 200 million users capped at 600 daily. # § Windows TCO⠀➾ # ⚓ Security Week ☛ In_Other_News:_Hospital_Infected_via USB_Drive,_EU_Cybersecurity_Rules,_Free_Security Tools⠀⇛ Check Point provides an in-depth analysis of malware attributed to China-based espionage group Camaro Dragon that infected an European healthcare institution after an employee participated in a conference in Asia. The malware self-propagates through USB drives and landed on the healthcare organization’s systems after the employee’s drive was accidentally infected during the conference. # ⚓ [Old] CPR ☛ Beyond_the_Horizon:_Traveling_the_World on_Camaro_Dragon’s_USB_Flash_Drives⠀⇛ The malware gained access to the healthcare institution systems through an infected USB drive. During the investigation, the Check Point Research (CPR) team discovered newer versions of the malware with similar capabilities to self-propagate through USB drives. In this way, malware infections originating in Southeast Asia spread uncontrollably to different networks around the globe, even if those networks are not the threat actors’ primary targets. The main payload variant, called WispRider, has undergone significant revisions. In addition to backdoor capabilities and the ability to propagate through USB using the HopperTick launcher, the payload includes additional features, such as a bypass for SmadAV, an anti-virus solution popular in Southeast Asia. The malware also performs DLL-side-loading using components of security software, such as G-DATA Total Security, and of two major gaming companies (Electronic Arts and Riot Games). Check Point Research responsibly notified these companies on the above-mentioned use of their software by the attackers. # ⚓ [Old] Scoop News Group ☛ Dallas_reports_90%_recovery from_ransomware_attack⠀⇛ The update came five weeks into Dallas’ ransomware ordeal, which initially spread across the city, including to its police and fire departments, which went without their computer-aided dispatch system, forcing 911 operators to manually transcribe and relay requests for aid. The CAD system was brought back online in mid-May, officials said. Several other systems have returned since then, including a service to schedule appointments with the city animal shelter. And a major milestone occurred last week, when Dallas municipal courts reopened after nearly a month, with an upgrade to its case-processing system. # ⚓ [Old] NBC ☛ Dallas_releases_technology_accountability report_following_ransomware_attack⠀⇛ The ransomware attack happened on May 3. According to the report released Friday, Dallas’ IT team took additional measures as an immediate response to disconnect systems, services, and devices from the city’s network to contain and prevent further spread of malicious software. The report also states the city organized and mobilized a broader incident support team to help in the management of the recovery activities. The city is still working to get back online but in the latest update, systems are reported to be more than 90% restored. o § Security⠀➾ # ⚓ SANS ☛ Kazakhstan_–_the_world’s_last_SSLv2_superpower…_and a_country_with_potentially_vulnerable_last-mile_internet infrastructure,_(Wed,_Jun_28th)⠀⇛ In my last Diary, we looked at internet-connected web servers, which still support SSL version 2.0. # ⚓ Dark Reading ☛ Newbie_Akira_Ransomware_Builds_Momentum_With Linux_Shift [Ed: Still trying to paint Windows and VMware threats as "Linux"]⠀⇛ The fledgling Akira ransomware group is building momentum and expanding its target base, following other cybercriminal groups by adding capabilities to exploit Linux systems as part of a growing sophistication in its activity, researchers have found. The gang, which emerged as a cybercriminal force to be reckoned with in April of this year, is primarily known for attacking Windows systems, and maintains a unique data-leak site designed as an interactive command prompt using jQuery. However, the group — named for a 1988 Japanese anime cult classic featuring a psychopathic biker — is now shifting its tactics to target Linux, with a new version of its ransomware that can exploit systems running the open source OS, researchers from Cyble Research and Intelligence Labs (CRIL) revealed in a blog post published June 29. # ⚓ CSO ☛ Mission_Linux:_How_the_open_source_software_is_now_a lucrative_target_for_hackers [Ed: Attempts to shift away from back doors in Microsoft Windows, sometimes blaming bad passwords on "Linux" or holes in proprietary things like VMware ESX on "Linux"]⠀⇛ # ⚓ TSMC_confirms_data_breach_after_LockBit_cyberattack_on third-party_supplier[Ed: Microsoft Windows TCO]⠀⇛ Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world’s largest contract chipmaker, has confirmed it’s experienced a data breach after being listed as a victim by the LockBit ransomware gang. The Russia-linked LockBit ransomware gang listed TSMC on its dark web leak site on Thursday. The gang is threatening to publish data stolen from the company, which commands 60% of the global foundry market, unless the company pays a $70 million ransom demand. # ⚓ The Star MY ☛ 16-year-old_youth_among_13_arrested_for alleged_involvement_in_banking-related_malware_scams_in Singapore⠀⇛ Thirteen people, including a 16-year-old youth, were arrested for their suspected involvement in the recent spate of banking-related malware scam cases. Preliminary investigations showed that 10 of the 13 suspects, aged between 16 and 27, had allegedly facilitated the scam cases by sharing their bank accounts, Internet banking credentials and/or disclosing Singpass credentials for monetary gains. # ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ Mount_Desert_Island_Hospital_notifies 24,180_patients_of_April_network_attack⠀⇛ On June 30, Mount Desert Island Hospital in Maine reported a breach to HHS that affected 24,180 patients. The hospital had previously disclosed the incident on June 5, when they posted a notice on their website that said that they had detected unusual activity on their network on May 4. An investigation determined that there had been unauthorized access between April 28 and May 7, 2023. # ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ Breach_Victims_Have_Standing_When_Data_Misused, 1st_Circuit_Says⠀⇛ A data-breach victim whose personal information was subject to actual misuse has standing to sue the entity that suffered the breach, a federal appeals court said. Plaintiff Alexsis Webb plausibly alleged an injury- in-fact sufficient to confer standing to sue Injured Workers Pharmacy Inc. based on her allegation that information stolen from the home- delivery pharmacy was used to file a fraudulent tax return, Judge Sandra L. Lynch of the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit said Friday. # ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ BlackCat_continues_attempting_to_extort healthcare_entities⠀⇛ Coachella Valley Collection Service, a service that provides debt collection services, including “medical, retail, commercial, judgment, and check debt collection.” BlackCat (aka AlphV) claims to have acquired 575 GB of data including employee personal information, internal company documents, clients’ documents with Social Security numbers, loan data and more, and a complete network map including login credentials for local and remote services. # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Citizen Lab ☛ Privacy_in_the_WeChat_Ecosystem Explained⠀⇛ This FAQ accompanies the full report on privacy in the WeChat ecosystem. We analyzes privacy issues with popular app WeChat by reviewing the data collected by the app and sent to WeChat servers during the regular operation of its various features. We find that they collect more usage data than is disclosed in the WeChat privacy policy. # ⚓ Why_I_don’t_like_ads⠀⇛ It’s common to dislike ads. They’re annoying for many. I recommend anyone to use an adblocker whenever they can. Despite them being annoying, they’re also good for your privacy. Addictive and predatory nature of advertisement is harmful. Especially so when it’s not a product being advertised, but some dangerous ideological movement. Anyhow, I am not trying to be all “but it’s worse for me!” here, but ads really hinder me. Ads are not accessible. By accessibility I do not mean “I can’t click/read them.” But they give me discomfort, more than many other things. I have very likely some sort of misophonia and misokinesia. Misophonia is basically finding some sounds really frustrating and annoying. Some people have it worse than others. Mine is not that bad, luckily. But some sounds like specific voices do tick me off. But I can live with that. Misokinesia is finding certain movements frustrating and annoying. This is what is my problem here with ads. Ads have a lot of things going on to grab your attention. They’re there to get addicted and interested in the Thing they’re selling. You know, the usual. # ⚓ Gray Media Group ☛ Ahead_of_new_age_verification_law, Pornhub_blocks_access_in_Virginia⠀⇛ However, Pornhub, in a message posted to its site Thursday, is arguing the law is not the most effective solution for protecting people visiting its site, and puts children and user privacy at risk. “Until a real solution is offered, we have made the difficult decision to completely disable access to our website in Virginia,” wrote Pornhub. # ⚓ Virginia Mercury ☛ Ahead_of_new_age_verification_law, Pornhub_blocks_access_in_Virginia⠀⇛ In Virginia, the law applies to any website where 33.3% or more of the content is “material harmful to minors,” such as websites exclusively containing pornography. Social media sites like Twitter and Reddit, which allow adult content on their platforms but are not predominantly made up of adult content, would not be subject to the law. In Virginia, the law will allow people to sue pornographic websites that don’t use proper age and identity verification methods “for damages resulting from a minor’s access to such material.” However, Beth Waller, attorney and chair of the cybersecurity and data privacy practice at Woods Rogers Vandeventer Black law firm, said technology limitations could make it difficult for pornography websites to follow the requirements. She also questioned Virginia’s ability to enforce the law in the first place. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Waterloo_Student_Charged_in_Stabbing_in Gender_Studies_Class⠀⇛ A professor and two students at the University of Waterloo were treated for their injuries. A 24- year-old recent graduate was charged with assault. # ⚓ Atlantic Council ☛ Boko_Haram_is_a_ghost._The_US_needs_to recognize_that.⠀⇛ Nigeria’s new president will need to get all the help he can get—including from the United States—to address the jihadist insurgency that has engulfed the country’s north. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Blinken_Says_No_Nuclear_Deal_On_Table_With_Iran⠀⇛ U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says no new nuclear agreement is on the table with Iran, despite quiet new diplomacy between Washington and Tehran. # ⚓ Atlantic Council ☛ Reading_between_the_lines_of_the_new North_Korea_intelligence_estimate⠀⇛ The US intelligence community has just released its National Intelligence Estimate on North Korea, a watershed analysis. But more is worth adding to the discussion. # ⚓ Defence Web ☛ Sexual_exploitation_and_abuse_rife_in_DRC⠀⇛ Ten years after a United Nations (UN)/Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) joint communique aimed at combatting sexual violence entered into force, sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA) is still widespread in the strife-torn central African country. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ State_Department_Review_Of_2021_Afghanistan Evacuation_Critical_Of_Biden,_Trump⠀⇛ A State Department report on June 30 criticized the handling of the 2021 U.S. evacuation operation from Afghanistan. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Afghanistan_Has_Ousted_Americans,_but Cultural_Influences_Remain⠀⇛ While the Taliban have erased most obvious vestiges of the U.S. nation-building effort in Afghanistan, the cultural legacy of two decades of American occupation has been harder to stamp out. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ South_Korea_picks_outspoken_critic_of North’s_rights_record_as_unification_minister⠀⇛ The nomination is likely to add strain to ties between the two Koreas. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Japan,_South_Korea_to_discuss_FX_swop deal_in_first_finance_talks_since_2016⠀⇛ They are set to revive a bilateral currency swop arrangement to symbolise improved relations. # ⚓ France24 ☛ French_protesters_clash_with_security_forces over_police_killing_of_teen_driver⠀⇛ Authorities said 150 people were arrested overnight after violent demonstrations erupted for a second night in a row, with protesters burning rubbish and clashing with security forces over the fatal police shooting of a teenager. French President Emmanuel Macron has convened crisis talks for Thursday morning. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ US_Senate_committee:_FBI_and_Homeland_Security_had systematic_intelligence_failures_in_lead-up_to_January_6 Capitol_attack⠀⇛ The US Senate Homeland Security Committee released a report Tuesday detailing “intelligence failures” amongst law enforcement officials surrounding the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Australia_offers_to_extend_deployment_of_troops, police_in_Solomon_Islands⠀⇛ Solomon Islands prime minister said government still assessing security needs for the upcoming Pacific Games. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Father,_Sister_Of_Teenager_Shot_Dead_By_Iranian Security_Forces_Charged_With_‘Anti-Government_Propaganda’⠀⇛ The father and sister of Abolfazl Adinezadeh, a 17- year-old protester shot dead by Iranian security forces in October, have been charged with “anti- government propaganda,” according to their family lawyer, Khosrow Alikordi. # ⚓ teleSUR ☛ AU_Hands_Over_2_More_Military_Bases_to_Somali Security_Forces⠀⇛ The bases handed over include Adale in Hirshabelle State and Albao in Southwest State. # ⚓ Digital First Media ☛ Fans_throwing_things_at_artists_in concert_is_a_problem._There’s_an_easy_way_to_fix_it⠀⇛ It’s easy to point a finger toward social media, which at least deserves some of the blame here. Our accounts, our followers, our documented experience of our lives makes us all think that we are the main character in our own stories, and that our story is the most important narrative everywhere we go. But at a concert, you’re not a main character, the artist is. And it’s not yours or anyone else’s place to hijack the experience and make it all about you. # ⚓ The Age AU ☛ France_sends_in_special_forces_to_combat rioters_[sic]⠀⇛ French television reported that at least four officers were wounded by shotgun fire in Vaulx-en- Velin, a suburb of Lyon, on Friday night. The main public library in Marseilles, France’s second-largest city, was burnt down on Thursday. Overnight looting on Friday continued into Saturday morning, sparking appeals from shopkeepers for Mr Macron to “do something”. # ⚓ Foundation for Investigative Journalism Nigeria ☛ REPORT: Boko_Haram_Killed_5,873_Nigerians_in_Last_2_Years⠀⇛ The Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) overshadowed Boko Haram in terrorist operations recently, and this makes the number of Boko Haram victims in the last two years worthy of note. # ⚓ RAIR Foundation ☛ ‘Stop_this_Horror_Now’:_Geert_Wilders Warns_of_the_Threat_Posed_by_North_African_and_Arab_Migrants_ (Video)⠀⇛ During his speech, Wilders recounted a shocking incident involving an Iranian individual who, despite facing deportation orders on two separate occasions, resorted to pouring scalding hot oil on two Dutch immigration workers, resulting in their permanent disfigurement. This desperate act was aimed at evading repatriation to Iran. Additionally, he highlighted other criminal activities committed by migrants, such as breaking into the home of an elderly woman, intruding into her bedroom, physically assaulting a woman in a wheelchair by forcibly removing her from it and throwing her onto the floor, public acts of urination and defecation by asylum seekers, an instance where a migrant exposed his genitals to a young girl, North Africans engaging in public masturbation in front of young Dutch children, instances of groping and harassment towards girls on their way to school, as well as supermarket cashiers being subjected to throat-cutting gestures by asylum seekers who were stealing from the stores. The PVV leader also mentioned incidents of Dutch citizens’ cars being set on fire. People are trapped in their houses because they no longer dare to go out at night, fearful of the escalating dangers caused by migrants. b # ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ Power_Distribution_in_Taliban_and China’s_Role⠀⇛ According to the statements of Central Asia regional experts, the Taliban rule is gradually adopting more authoritarian positions and resembles the dogmatic policy of the 1990s. These conclusions are confirmed in the recently released annual UN Analytical Support and Monitoring Teem report for the UN Security Council Committee. The report also mentions that the return of Kandahar as a center of power, as it was during the Taliban rule in Afghanistan in the 1990s, is bypassing the opinion of high-ranking Taliban officials in Kabul, the center of the current government. # ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ The_failure_of_Muslim_Brotherhood_agenda inside_China_and_Xinjiang⠀⇛ Several secret Chinese documents revealed that Britain had taken advantage of the popularity and influence of the banned terrorist group, the Muslim Brotherhood, to wage secret psychological and propaganda wars against its enemies everywhere, whether in the Arab region or abroad, such as the late Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser in Egypt, and President Al-Sisi is currently at the top of her list of targets, in addition to hating and fighting the banned terrorist Brotherhood for all Chinese leaders and leaders, such as: (Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and the current Chinese President, Comrade “Xi Jinping”), which China and its experts considered as an use of the banned Brotherhood in confronting it, as part of a “British-American psychological campaign” in confronting it. o § Environment⠀➾ # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Are_Singapore_and_the_region_ready_for El_Nino?⠀⇛ Is the region ready for hotter, drier weather? And how is the heat affecting ordinary people? # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Japan’s_armed_forces_looking_to_relax rules_on_hairstyles_to_attract_new_members⠀⇛ Changes are necessary to promote diversity and inclusivity, officials said. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ One_dead,_one_missing_as_Japan_hit_by heavy_rain⠀⇛ In Yamaguchi prefecture, a man was found dead inside a car that had been washed into a river. # ⚓ Omicron Limited ☛ Polluting_shipping_to_face_climate reckoning⠀⇛ Shipping, which is responsible for around two percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, is judged to be off course in the fight against climate change. Efforts to decarbonize so far center around a 2018 IMO decision that instructed shipping firms to reduce CO2 emissions by 50 percent by 2050, from 2008 levels. But that target is considered insufficient given the level of global emissions and compared to other industries, including aviation, which is aiming for net zero by the same mid-century deadline. # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ H2 View ☛ Hydrogen-powered_train_enters_revenue service_in_Québec,_Canada⠀⇛ In what is said to be a first in Canada and the Americas, Alstom’s hydrogen-powered Coradia iLint train took 100 passengers across Québec on a 90km trip. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Botswana_and_De_Beers_Sign_Deal_to Continue_Rich_Diamond_Partnership⠀⇛ The parties reached an interim agreement to renew their longstanding relationship, but say they’re still working out the details. It is unclear how much it will benefit Botswana, the world’s second largest diamond producer. # ⚓ Michael West Media ☛ Australia_urged_to_invest_$100b in_battery_industry⠀⇛ Australia has been urged to ink a battery supply chain pact with leading car maker South Korea to kickstart local industry. A globally competitive battery manufacturing capability onshore in Australia could be part of a critical minerals compact with the country’s top three trading partners, a think tank said in a report released on Thursday. # ⚓ Federal News Network ☛ Vietjet_plane_with_214_people aboard_lands_safely_in_Philippines_after_technical problem⠀⇛ A Vietjet plane carrying 214 people has made an unscheduled but safe landing in the northern Philippines after encountering an unspecified technical problem. None of the passengers and crew was hurt. The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines said the Airbus A321 was enroute to Vietnam from the South Korean city of Incheon when it encountered a problem Wednesday morning and had to divert to Laoag international airport in Ilocos Norte province. CAAP said the pilot did not declare an emergency and did not report any engine failure. A replacement craft to take the passengers onward was expected to arrive later Wednesday. # ⚓ CNN ☛ Giant_kites_could_pull_cargo_ships_across_the ocean_–_and_slash_their_carbon_emissions⠀⇛ Two engineers at the French aerospace company Airbus came up with the idea in 2016, launching Airseas to further develop the technology. After years of research, they are currently testing the kite on a cargo ship traveling between France and the US. Powered predominantly by fossil fuels, the shipping industry accounts for around 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the International Maritime Organization – which is why there’s an urgent need for change, says Airseas co-founder and CEO Vincent Bernatets. # § Wildlife/Nature⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Canadian_Wildfires_Have_Mobilized Firefighters_Across_the_World⠀⇛ Nearly 400 American firefighters have been fighting fires in Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia. # § Overpopulation⠀➾ # ⚓ NYPost ☛ Record-high_number_of_40-year-olds_in_US have_never_been_married:_study⠀⇛ The Pew Research Center analyzed Census Bureau data from 2021 and found 25% of 40- year-olds that year had never been married, a sharp increase from 20% in 2010. Many of these individuals lived alone, with just 22% of never-married adults ages 40 to 44 reporting last year that they cohabitated with a romantic partner. The 2021 data marks a new peak in what’s been a decades-long trend. o § Finance⠀➾ # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Five_Guys_burgers_on_South_Korean second-hand_market_sold_for_more_than_$100,_sparking criticism⠀⇛ The burger set, originally costing $42, was sold on the day the US chain opened its first store in Seoul. # ⚓ Quartz ☛ The_Fed’s_favorite_inflation_gauge_suggests_it could_skip_another_rate_hike_again⠀⇛ The US Federal Reserve has another piece of data which supports not raising interest rates again in July. The central bank’s favorite measure of inflation—the personal consumption expenditure (PCE) index released by the US Bureau of Economic Analysis—cooled more than expected in May. # ⚓ LRT ☛ Inflation_in_Lithuania_abates,_but_prices_unlikely_to fall⠀⇛ For the first time in a year and a half, statisticians in Lithuania have recorded single- digit annual inflation – and compared to May, prices even edged down. # ⚓ Michael West Media ☛ Borrowers_on_red_alert_as_inflation fight_rakes_economy⠀⇛ The fight against inflation is not felt evenly, and unfortunately there are far more losers than winners. On the frontline are borrowers, taxpayers, wage earners and the cohort of unemployed that is expected to expand as the Reserve Bank’s aggressive interest rate hikes weigh on the economy. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Myanmar_traders_at_China_border_worry_about_junta’s new_‘pay-by-bank’_system⠀⇛ Traders will be forced to report their income and sell foreign currency to the junta at below market rates. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Has_Laos_ensnared_China_in_a_‘creditor_trap?’⠀⇛ China can neither allow Laos to default on huge debts nor let its small neighbor suffer too much. # ⚓ Food_poverty_threshold_further_rises_in_Turkey,_shows_union survey⠀⇛ In May, Türk-İş measured the starvation line at 10,362 TL and the poverty line at 33,752 TL. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Sierra_Leone’s_President_Bio_Wins_Re- election⠀⇛ The main opposition candidate has rejected the results, and election observers have raised concerns over the lack of transparency during the vote count. # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Elon’s_Twitter_Kills_Off_Many_More_Useful_Bots⠀⇛ One of Elon’s big promises when he took over Twitter was that he would get rid of spam bots. So far that’s been a huge fucking failure. That’s from the Wall Street Journal, which has been generally supportive of Musk’s tenure at Twitter. But, the article makes it clear that Musk has totally failed to make any dent in the fight against spam bots. The article quotes a bunch of experts and researchers pointing to various studies and reports all saying that the amount of spam on Twitter doesn’t seem to have changed much. And the article also notes that Musk’s claims that his Twitter Blue fake verification plan (which Musk insisted was key to stopping spam bots) has actually made the problem worse: # ⚓ Meduza ☛ Prigozhin’s_‘troll_factory’_may_have_turned against_him_in_May⠀⇛ Beginning in early May, around 13,000 of the troll factory bots stopped working for Prigozhin, said the creator of a project called Lovushka Povara (Chef’s Trap), who does not publicly disclose his name. According to this person, for the past few years the bots have “obviously worked for Prigozhin, but now, evidently, they don’t work for him because they write pointed and coordinated critiques of him.” Experts estimate that before May, there were around 15,000 bots supporting Prigozhin on VKontakte. Around 1,400 remain now. # ⚓ Security Week ☛ Army_Combat_Veteran_to_Take_Over_Key Election_Security_Role_Working_With_State,_Local_Officials⠀⇛ In the position, Cait Conley will coordinate with federal, state and local officials responsible for ensuring elections are secure ahead of the 2024 presidential election. CISA Director Jen Easterly said Conley’s national security experience made her “ideally suited to help those state and local officials carrying out elections in every community in America.” Conley takes over duties from Kim Wyman, who will depart the agency at the end of July to join the private sector. Wyman, a former top election official in Washington state, joined the agency after the 2020 election in which CISA leadership was blasted by former President Donald Trump for countering false claims about the vote. # ⚓ BW Businessworld Media Pvt Ltd ☛ Law_Of_Land_Must_Be Followed,_Says_Ashwini_Vaishnaw_On_High_Court’s_Twitter Verdict⠀⇛ The bench also imposed a whopping cost of Rs 50 lakh on Twitter and ordered the payment to the Karnataka State Legal Services Authority within 45 days. # ⚓ India Times ☛ Twitter_bans_over_11_lakh_Indian_users_for policy_violations⠀⇛ The micro-blogging platform, who now has a new Twitter CEO in Linda Yaccarino, also removed 1,843 accounts for promoting terrorism on its platform in the country. In all, Twitter banned 11,34,071 accounts in a month in India. # § Misinformation/Disinformation/Propaganda⠀➾ # ⚓ New Statesman ☛ Facebook_whistleblower_Frances Haugen:_“I_wouldn’t_wish_Mark_Zuckerberg’s_life_on anyone”⠀⇛ In 2021 Haugen, a former Facebook engineer and product manager, quit the company and disclosed tens of thousands of internal documents to the world. Working with a lawyer from Whistleblower Aid and the Wall Street Journal – which published the first explosive reports based on her disclosures in September of that year – she was able to detail the Facebook parent company’s embrace of algorithms it knew were causing widespread harm. Senior staff were aware, the documents revealed, that their platforms – which include WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram, alongside Facebook itself – promoted content dealing in extremism, hate speech and misinformation in users’ news feeds, as well as that relating to body image and self-harm. Instagram’s own internal research had shown that such content kept young users on its platform for longer, often leading to depression, anxiety and eating disorders. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ In_Pictures:_Hong_Kong_unlicensed pro-democracy_Citizens’_Radio_station_goes_off-air_after_18 years⠀⇛ Founded by veteran activist Tsang Kin-shing in 2005, Citizens’ Radio began as an act of civil disobedience against Hong Kong’s public broadcasting laws, which he and fellow activists criticised as overly restrictive of public access to the airwaves. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Thousands_protest_in_Iraq_for_a_second_day_over burning_of_Quran_in_Sweden⠀⇛ At the rallies in the capital of Baghdad and the southern city of Basra, followers of Muqtada al- Sadr, a cleric with a large grassroots following and political leader, burned Swedish flags and rainbow LGBTQ+ pride flags and chanted ”“Yes, yes to Islam” and “No, no to the devil.” Addressing the crowds in a speech in the Baghdad suburb of Sadr City, Friday prayers preacher Sayyid Sattar Batat, called on Iraqi authorities to “if necessary, expel the Swedish ambassador and cut all diplomatic relations with them.” # ⚓ RFERL ☛ ‘Killing_Two_People_With_One_Verdict’:_Russian Pensioner_Imprisoned_For_Anti-War_Activism_Seeking_Urgent Cancer_Treatment⠀⇛ For a week now, 64-year-old anti-war activist Igor Baryshnikov has been in custody in Russia’s far western exclave of Kaliningrad after being sentenced to 7 1/2 years in prison on charges of spreading “false” information about the Russian military in Ukraine. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Lukashenka_Signs_Law_Allowing_The_Banning_Of_Media From_‘Unfriendly_Countries’⠀⇛ Belarusian authoritarian leader Alyaksandr Lukashenka has signed a law that will allow the banning of media from “unfriendly countries,” his office said on July 1. [...] # ⚓ CPJ ☛ Unidentified_attackers_shoot_Philippine_journalist Joshua_Abiad_and_family⠀⇛ “How many journalists need to be shot before the Ferdinand Marcos Jr. administration takes its country’s impunity problem seriously?” said Shawn Crispin, CPJ’s senior Southeast Asia representative. “Philippine authorities must stop at nothing to track down and hold to account those responsible for shooting journalist Joshua Abiad and his family members, as well the culprits behind all other journalist shootings in recent years.” # ⚓ RFA ☛ Have_you_heard_the_one_about_stand-up_in_China?⠀⇛ On International Joke Day, recent moves are raising questions about the Communist Party’s tolerance for comedy. # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Meta_Oversight_Board_recommends_6_month_suspension of_Cambodia_PM_social_media⠀⇛ Meta’s Oversight Board made a decision on Thursday to overturn Meta’s original decision to leave up a video posted by Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Facebook, in which he threatened his political opponents with violence. # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Hong_Kong_may_drop_plans_for_‘fake news’_law,_says_leader_John_Lee⠀⇛ Hong Kong may drop plans for a “fake news” law, Chief Executive John Lee has suggested, saying the problem can be tackled by other means. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Hun_Sen’s_Facebook_Page_Goes_Dark_After Spat_with_Meta⠀⇛ Prime Minister Hun Sen, an avid user of the platform, had vowed to delete his account after Meta’s oversight board said he had used it to threaten political violence. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Meta’s_oversight_board_orders_removal_of_Hun_Sen’s Facebook_video⠀⇛ Cambodian leader has account deleted, switches to Telegram. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Cambodian_PM_Hun_Sen_threatens_to_block Facebook_access⠀⇛ June 30, 2023 1:15 PM Faebook said he made “unequivocal statements of intent to commit violence” against opposition politicians. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ ‘They_should_care_about_us’:_Former_Facebook moderators_sue_Meta⠀⇛ Nearly 200 former content moderators for Facebook in Kenya have filed a lawsuit against Meta, which could have implications for the work worldwide. They allege poor working conditions and insufficient mental health support for viewing harmful content. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ Meta_implements_new_parental_privacy_features. Are_they_enough?⠀⇛ Instagram and Facebook are implementing new parental supervision tools and privacy features. Yet critics argue these measures fall short because they require families to opt in to using them. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Twitter’s_New_CEO,_Linda_Yaccarino,_Eases Into_the_Hot_Seat⠀⇛ Linda Yaccarino, who initially could not take ad sales meetings because of a noncompete clause, is adjusting to her new role reporting to Elon Musk. o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ Associated Press ☛ Stop_the_press:_Vienna_newspaper_Wiener Zeitung_ends_daily_print_edition_after_320_years⠀⇛ The Wiener Zeitung, which is owned by the Austrian government but editorially independent, suffered a sharp decrease in revenue after a recent law dropped a requirement for companies to pay to publish changes to the commercial registry in the print edition. The newspaper, which is considered a quality publication with a wide range of articles covering domestic and foreign news, culture and business, was forced to cut 63 jobs and reduce its editorial staff by almost two-thirds to 20. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Pope_meets_with_wife_and_family_of_Julian_Assange, who_says_pontiff_‘concerned’_by_his_suffering⠀⇛ Pope Francis met Friday with imprisoned WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange’s wife Stella, who said the pope’s gesture in receiving her was evidence of his “ongoing show of support for our family’s plight” and concern over her husband’s suffering. In an interview with The Associated Press after the audience, Stella Assange recalled that Francis had sent a letter to her husband in March 2021, during a particularly difficult period. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Belarusian_journalist_sentenced_to_4_years_in_prison as_crackdown_continues⠀⇛ The journalists’ association said material presented at his trial included investigative programs about the disappearance of a videographer and the 2016 car bombing in Ukraine of TV journalist Pavel Sharemet. Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, in power since 1994, has taken an increasingly repressive line toward the opposition and independent journalists since mass protests engulfed the country in 2020 following a presidential election that gave him a sixth term in office but was widely regarded as fraudulent. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Japanese_journalist_barred_from_entering_Hong_Kong without_clear_reason,_newspaper_says⠀⇛ A Japanese journalist was barred from entering Hong Kong without a clear reason and was sent back to his country, a Japanese newspaper said, raising concerns over the city’s shrinking press freedoms. The Japan Times, a prominent English-language newspaper, reported Friday that a freelance journalist was taken by officials to a room after arriving at the city’s airport Thursday evening. Yoshiaki Ogawa, known for his coverage in the financial hub, was later interviewed for around an hour, it said. o § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ # ⚓ France24 ☛ Iranian_art_school_students_beaten_and_arrested for_defying_headscarf_rules⠀⇛ A group of Iranian students, incensed at rules imposed on June 12 requiring female students to wear a maqna’a – a conservative Islamic headscarf in black that covers the head, neck and shoulders – began a sit-in in protest. They also wrote an open letter to the university administration, which said: “We have nothing to say to you except ‘no’.” A number of students were beaten and arrested for taking part in the protest, while also being threatened with suspension and even death. Thousands of people have posted “no” on their social media accounts in solidarity and students at dozens of other universities have published open letters in support of the Tehran art students. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ An_Indigenous_Leader_Who_Raised_Corruption Allegations_Is_Ousted⠀⇛ The Assembly of First Nations removed RoseAnne Archibald as its national chief this week after a harassment investigation # ⚓ Federal News Network ☛ Judge_awards_Black_church_$1_million after_BLM_banner_burned_by_Proud_Boys_during_protest⠀⇛ A judge has awarded more than $1 million to a Black church in Washington, D.C. that sued the far-right Proud Boys for stealing and burning a Black Lives Matter banner during a 2020 protest. Friday’s ruling also bars the group and its leaders from coming near the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church or making threats against it for five years. Two Black Lives Matter banners were pulled down from Metropolitan AME and another church and burned during clashes between pro-Donald Trump supporters and counterdemonstrators. Proud Boys leader “Enrique” Tarrio later acknowledged setting fire to one banner and pleaded guilty to misdemeanor property destruction. He was sentenced to more than five months in jail. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Iranian_Teachers’_Union_Decries_Mass_Trials,_Harsh Sentences_Meted_Out_To_Educators⠀⇛ The Iranian Teachers’ Union Association has issued a statement protesting mass trials and “unjust sentences” handed to teachers, urging the authorities of the Islamic Republic to halt the practice. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Iranian_Authorities_Arrest_Associates_of_Iran’s_Top Sunni_Leader_Accused_Of_‘Disturbing_Public_Minds’⠀⇛ Several associates of Molavi Abdolhamid, the Imam of southeastern Iranian city of Zahedan and Iran’s top Sunni leader, have been arrested by Iranian authorities. The arrests were confirmed by a media outlet close to the Revolutionary Guards, who accused the detainees of “disturbing public minds.” # ⚓ Reason ☛ Free-Range_Kids_in_Virginia,_Connecticut,_and Illinois_Celebrate_a_Very_Special_Independence_Day⠀⇛ This year, Independence Day will be especially worth celebrating for families in Virginia, Connecticut, and Illinois. Just ask Evelyn Hackel. “The law goes into effect on July 1, and I’m really excited,” says Hackel, a naval architect in Virginia and mother to a 12-year-old named Elsa. Evelyn is referring to S.B. 1367, also known as the “Reasonable Childhood Independence” bill. # ⚓ Foreign Policy ☛ The_Taliban’s_Hatred_of_Women_Is Fundamental_to_Their_Hold_on_Power⠀⇛ Hatred is stalking the women of Afghanistan, pushing them further into darkness as world leaders appear to be ignoring the terrible truth that the Taliban’s efforts to disappear half the population are central to their hold on power. Taliban leaders say their misogynistic policies are steeped in religion, tradition, and respect for women. They tell Western officials that the prison-like restrictions will soon be eased, only then to tighten them further. For women who are isolated, brutalized, and desperate, Afghanistan has become that place where nobody can hear them scream. # ⚓ Neritam ☛ Minimum_wage_workers_can’t_afford_rent_anywhere in_America⠀⇛ But the report showed that a worker would need to earn $24.90 per hour in order to afford a two- bedroom home at Fair Market Rent. And a $20.40 “housing wage” would be needed for a one-bedroom. Fair Market Rents are government estimates of what a person should expect to pay for a modest home in their area. # ⚓ EDRI ☛ EDRi_is_trialling_the_four-day_working_week⠀⇛ Starting from 1 July, the EDRi office in Brussels will begin a trial of working time reduction until the end of the year. The pilot foresees that all full-time staff members will work 32 hours over four days per week (Monday to Thursday) while maintaining salaries at the same level. The pilot will run from July to the end of December, followed by an evaluation to explore a shift to the 4-day week. o § Monopolies⠀➾ # ⚓ Federal Trade Commission ☛ FTC_Takes_Action_Against_Amazon for_Enrolling_Consumers_in_Amazon_Prime_Without_Consent_and Sabotaging_Their_Attempts_to_Cancel⠀⇛ In a complaint filed today, the FTC charges that Amazon has knowingly duped millions of consumers into unknowingly enrolling in Amazon Prime. Specifically, Amazon used manipulative, coercive, or deceptive user-interface designs known as “dark patterns” to trick consumers into enrolling in automatically-renewing Prime subscriptions. Amazon also knowingly complicated the cancellation process for Prime subscribers who sought to end their membership. The primary purpose of its Prime cancellation process was not to enable subscribers to cancel, but to stop them. Amazon leadership slowed or rejected changes that would’ve made it easier for users to cancel Prime because those changes adversely affected Amazon’s bottom line. # ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ Lina_Khan_Is_Coming_for_Amazon,_Armed_With_an FTC_Antitrust_Suit⠀⇛ # ⚓ TechCrunch ☛ FTC_reportedly_finalizing_its_biggest_Amazon antitrust_case_yet⠀⇛ According to documents viewed by Bloomberg and sources familiar, the upcoming suit will allege that Amazon systematically disadvantages merchants who don’t use certain “optional” services like “Fulfilled by Amazon.” If the FTC can show that Amazon is maliciously manipulating a market it has something like monopoly power in, it could make the case that the company needs to be broken up or restructured. To do so is not easy, however: Amazon grew fat under the doctrine that essentially, if consumers aren’t directly affected, even something that looks, walks and talks like a monopoly isn’t one. Khan famously challenged this doctrine in an extensive law review article that marked her as a rising star and potentially the biggest threat to a similarly ascendant tech industry. # ⚓ CNBC ☛ Amazon_to_soon_face_big_FTC_antitrust_suit_over online_marketplace_power,_report_says⠀⇛ But the antitrust complaint against Amazon’s core business is the action most FTC watchers have been waiting for. According to Bloomberg, the expected complaint is based in part on evidence the FTC has collected that Amazon allegedly disadvantages sellers that don’t use its logistics services. # ⚓ [Old] New York Times ☛ Amazon’s_Monopsony_Is_Not_O.K.⠀⇛ Amazon.com, the giant online retailer, has too much power, and it uses that power in ways that hurt America. O.K., I know that was kind of abrupt. But I wanted to get the central point out there right away, because discussions of Amazon tend, all too often, to get lost in side issues. # ⚓ [Old] McGill University ☛ Amazon:_Monopoly_or_Monopsony?⠀⇛ The issue of Amazon’s market power is a more complex one. On the surface, it may appear foolish to paint Amazon as a monopoly given that it provides consumers access to seemingly endless amounts of products at low prices from a wide array of suppliers/third-party sellers. Behind the scenes however, signs point to Amazon wielding a different type of market power – monopsony power. A monopsony, as opposed to a monopoly, is a situation where there is only a single buyer for a good or service. Amazon reflects this in two respects: its interactions with its third-party sellers and its behaviour in the labour market. # ⚓ [Old] CNBC ☛ Investigation_of_Competetition_in_Digital Markets [PDF]⠀⇛ Industry experts estimate that about 80% of Amazon sales go through the Buy Box, and the percentage is even higher for mobile purchases.1531 In response to a question from the Subcommittee, Amazon provided only high-level information about how it chooses which offer will win the Buy Box, tating that the algorithm considers criteria such as price, delivery speed and cost, Prime eligibility, and seller performance.1532 Despite the importance of winning the Buy Box to sellers on its platform, only Amazon knows exactly how its featured merchant algorithm works. As Amazon’s e-commerce business has grown, it has also developed a significant logistics business providing fulfillment and delivery services to third-party sellers through its Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) program. Nearly 85% of the top 10,000 Amazon Marketplace sellers reportedly rely on this program to fulfill and deliver their orders.1533 Third-party sellers that use FBA keep their inventory in Amazon’s fulfillment centers.1534 After a consumer places an order online, Amazon does the picking, packing, and shipping, and provides customer service to complete the order.1535 The figure below explains the different types of sellers on Amazon.com and the various modes of delivery and fulfillment they use. # ⚓ Business Insider ☛ The_FTC_plans_to_file_a_huge_antitrust suit_against_Amazon,_accusing_it_of_punishing_sellers_who don’t_pay_to_use_its_logistics_services,_report_says⠀⇛ The FTC has gathered evidence showing that the company disadvantages sellers who choose not to use Amazon’s services, Bloomberg reported. The FTC is also investigating an algorithm that chooses which sellers are given a so-called “Buy Box” on Amazon’s website, which customers can click on to add items to their cart. # § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Google_to_remove_Canada_news_links_in response_to_Online_News_Act⠀⇛ Google stated on Thursday that it would remove Canadian news links from its search engine, news and discover products. Google’s President of Global Affairs Kent Walker claimed that the Canada’s new Online News Act has made offering Google News Showcase Products to Canadian news outlets untenable. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ Google_claims_Canada_news_law ‘conflicts_with_core_principles_of_the_open_web’⠀⇛ Google complained the law “exposes us to uncapped financial liability simply for facilitating access to news”. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ Google_follows_Meta_with_plan_to block_news_in_Canada_after_Online_News_Act_passes⠀⇛ The legislation could help publishers earn CA$329m a year in big tech deals. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Businesses_in_Johor_hope_to_cash in_on_Coldplay,_Taylor_Swift_concerts_in_Singapore⠀⇛ Fans are known to travel around the region to watch such concerts. # ⚓ Creative Commons ☛ CC_Joins_Key_AI_Panel_in Brussels⠀⇛ In our panel remarks, we emphasized how, for many years, we have been examining the interplay between copyright and AI — exploring ways in which these technologies and practices could help people build on and contribute to the commons, stimulate new creativity, and foster better sharing, i.e. sharing that is inclusive, equitable, reciprocal and sustainable. Going forward, it is clear that a diverse, global community must be involved in guiding the regulation of generative AI, with expertise spanning the fields of copyright, certainly, but also ethics, privacy and data protection, and fundamental human rights, so that AI’s promises are fulfilled and its perils, averted. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2973 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 07.02.23⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Gemini_version_available_♊︎ ✐ Gemini_Links_02/07/2023:_Dividing_People_and_Cohost_Rave⠀✐ Posted in News_Roundup at 4:43 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Gemini*_and_Gopher o Personal/Opinions o Politics_and_World_Events o Technology_and_Free_Software # Internet/Gemini * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ What_is_a_pronoun.⠀⇛ There is a full stop, not a question mark, at the end of this page title because it’s a statement. “What” is a pronoun. Hello and welcome to a brief essay on pronouns. # ⚓ March_update_2023_–_Big_Changes!⠀⇛ Hola! Happy Hacking to all hackers, DIY, Creators and tinkers out there. Ok so i did it again, but this time I was kind of depressed for some personal reasons.. Feeling much better now and I saw my friends in Alicante for the city holidays this year in June 2023. # ⚓ Where_does_robust_racing_become_unfair?_🖕🏎️🤬⠀⇛ At a kart track last summer, I came out of a corner much faster than the driver in front and went to pass her on the left. She moved over to block me, but I was already alongside. I had to go onto the grass, then slow to avoid a wall. Talking to her afterwards, she didn’t seem to think she’d done much wrong. In Austria today, a similar thing happened when Verstappen tried to pass Perez in the F1 sprint race. He got pushed onto the grass. What are the rules? Oddly, they aren’t written down. But some things are generally agreed. o § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ Pulling_out_the_mental_roots⠀⇛ All we need is for people like Lorie Smith and you to start thinking in terms of *people* (unqualified) instead of different kinds of people (gay, black, white, etc.) and the problem ends instantly. In other words, stop dividing people IN YOUR MINDS…. I’m not holding my breath. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Padding_against_AI⠀⇛ I’m not sure we talk enough about the impact of generative AI on our epistemic ecosystems (as Lorraine Code calls the intricate interconnection of systems of information flow that make it possible for us to know beyond our senses). I’m not convinced there’s any merit to the vague Terminator-like threats of AI taking over the world, but I do see its potential to worsen some existing trends. [...] So you could pad a résumé with ChatGPT. But take someone a bit more creative and desperate. There is an industry of “vanity press” in academia, made of journals that will publish almost anything you send them, for a substantive fee. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ BBS_June_Archive⠀⇛ I have exported a Gempub ZIP archive containing all posts and comments made on bbs.geminispace.org during June 2023. You can find it on the new “BBS Archives” page: BBS Archives In the future, I plan to add new monthly archives there without any separate announcements. # ⚓ 040_–_Cohost⠀⇛ Cohost is nice. It has images, for once. Images are nice. And its developers are actually paid to work on and moderate the project. That’s a whole topic I could dedicate a lot to. Because I do have a lot of thoughts swirling around my head about what the future of the internet can, and should, work like. Cohost sure is one of the better websites, at least. Worker cooperative of queer people. Good stuff. oh yeah i can also edit part way through a line without having to use wacky Vim commands. nice feature right there. because that paragraph up there is kind of a wreck. oh well. i guess it’ll just have to be bad. # ⚓ Missing_the_point⠀⇛ I’ll be replying directly to Stack’s post as Textmonger’s reply is more just directly in “here here!” and not adding much besides “I too am totally missing the point”. So you too should really think about what you agreed with and how its probably the worst take on this entire protocol. That includes adding tables to gemtext. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

We grilled up some burgers on the patio and watched our town’s firework display for Independence Day here in the US. Great show, and we could see it clearly from our house. We flew the drone up to capture most of the show. I noticed a few other blinking lights in the sky marking my neighbors doing the same. Unfortunately I wasn’t as prepared as them, as I ran out of battery before the finale. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ The_Consequences_of_Running_Leftist_Communities⠀⇛ Today, the administrators of kolektiva.social, a Mastodon instance that bills itself as a “free, non-corporate platform for anarchists and anti- colonial content producers looking to circumvent Google, Facebook, and other surveillance capitalists,” announced that an unencrypted copy of their database circa May 2023 was seized by the FBI as part of an unrelated raid². The main content affected as part of this is all user account information and all posts, regardless of the post’s privacy level. It should be noted that direct messages on Mastodon require a copy to be stored on both your instance’s server and the target server, so the availability of these types of data is not unique. However, the failure to adequately handle potentially sensitive user data and to quickly communicate this breach shows me that kolektiva is falling prey to the lack of meaningful concern for its users that plagues most leftist spaces. [...] To be clear, this is no worse than corporate social media, which is often more than willing to hand over your unencrypted DMs to any government agency that asks for them. However, spaces that advertise themselves as places for activists to gather and work are essentially creating large databases of leftists that can be easily scooped up by the feds if that data isn’t secured. # ⚓ Old_Computer_Challenge:_Preparation⠀⇛ The Old Computer Challenge 2023[1][2] is coming up in little over a week and I’ve planned this weekend to get things set up for it. The idea of the challenge is simple: to use a computer with maximum 512m ram, 1 core and the lowest cpu frequency, for one week, and see what happens. The challenge runs from July 10th to 16th and this will be my first OCC, as I (regrettably) had never heard of it before. But let’s get started! [...] So far, the first steps into setting up OpenBSD made me both really excited but also very aware of the limitations of the device. I already had to reinstall the OS once after the /usr partition was full due to me setting up ports. Speaking of… extracting the ports.tar.gz file took a whopping 30 minutes (for reference, this takes about 15 seconds on my M1 mac). # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ striping_things_down⠀⇛ I stopped hosting fedi. Deleted my alt account as well. i’m going through my phase of not socializing a lot anymore, or at least, trying something different. right now i’m only hosting gemini and xmpp over a dynamic dns. so please, if you wanna reach out, xmpp is my preference (i can email too, though!) # ⚓ AmiGemini_and_GCC⠀⇛ Had a horribly distracted morning again, but just couldn’t let this one go. The final thing on my todo list for my AmiGemini setup was getting a comfortable line length, without excessive window decorations. Being the odd little duckling that I am. I’m not really a fan of anything more than 10-12 words per screen width of text. Without excessively large fonts. AmiGemini when in full screen mode therefore is quite uncomfortable for me to read in. # ⚓ domains⠀⇛ There are many projects, most of them only designed, which domains have been bought for.

One repo was forked 900 times but a single DMCA notice sent by a single rightsholder has wiped every last one from GitHub. Their identity is a secret. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Gary_Bowser:_How_a_1980s_Hacker Became_Nintendo’s_Nemesis_Decades_Later⠀⇛ A few weeks ago, Canadian Gary Bowser was released from a U.S. prison, after serving a sentence for his role in infamous hacking group Team-Xecuter. How the 54-year-old computer geek ended up there is a remarkable story that began way back in the early ’80s. After telling his story, Gary hopes to find support for new and legal endeavors, ideally with a geek twist. # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Google_to_remove_links_to_Canadian news_websites_from_search_results⠀⇛ Google LLC will remove links to Canadian news websites from several services, including its flagship search engine, in response to a recently passed law. The company announced the decision today. The law in question, Bill C-18, was officially approved last week. # ⚓ Michael Geist ☛ Media_Chaos:_How_the_Government’s Legislative_Plans_to_Support_Canadian_Media_Have Backfired_Spectacularly⠀⇛ The Online News Act may be only days removed from having received royal assent, but the government’s plans to support the Canadian media sector have already backfired spectacularly. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4586 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 07.02.23⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Gemini_version_available_♊︎ ✐ Links_02/07/2023:_Skrooge_2.30.0_and_MiniDebConf_Brasília_2023_Report⠀✐ Posted in News_Roundup at 5:03 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * GNU/Linux o Kernel_Space o Applications o Instructionals/Technical o Games o Desktop_Environments/WMs # GNOME_Desktop/GTK * Distributions_and_Operating_Systems o Reviews o New_Releases o Debian_Family o Canonical/Ubuntu_Family o Devices/Embedded o Open_Hardware/Modding o Mobile_Systems/Mobile_Applications * Free,_Libre,_and_Open_Source_Software o Programming/Development # Python # Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh * § GNU/Linux⠀➾ o § Kernel Space⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Plumbers Conference (LPC) ☛ Linux_Plumbers Conference:_Linux_Kernel_Debugging_MC_CFP⠀⇛ We are pleased to announce the first ever Linux Kernel Debugging Microconference, and we are now accepting proposals and problem statements. Kernel debugging can be done in many ways with many purpose-built tools, from printk to Crash, Drgn, KDB/KGDB, and more. These tools are built on layers of standards, formats, implicit standards, and undocumented assumptions that make everything tick. When things work well, the tools stay out of your way and help you resolve your bug. But when things don’t work so well, you’re left debugging your debugger. The Linux Kernel Debugging Microconference aims to bring together the developers and users of these tools to discuss the shared problems we face. We hope to discuss ongoing work that will improve the state of kernel debuggers, as well as new ideas that will require coordinated development across projects. Some possible topics might include: [...] o § Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Links ☛ Raven_Reader_–_cross-platform_RSS_reading software⠀⇛ Raven Reader is a desktop news reader application. It’s built using Electron, a popular framework with developers. # ⚓ Skrooge_2.30.0_released⠀⇛ The Skrooge Team announces the release 2.30.0 version of its popular Personal Finances Manager based on KDE Frameworks. o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Handbook ☛ How_to_Automatically_Update_AWS_ECR_Token in_Kubernetes_with_CronJobs⠀⇛ Do you use AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) to store and manage your Docker images? # ⚓ Ubuntu Handbook ☛ New_PPA_for_Installing_VLC_3.0.18_in Ubuntu_22.04_|_20.04⠀⇛ This simple tutorial is going to introduce the new Ubuntu PPA for installing VLC media player as native .deb package format. VLC is easy to install in Ubuntu through either Snap (available in Ubuntu Software) or Flatpak. # ⚓ Own HowTo ☛ How_to_manage_sources.list_on_Debian_11 “Bullseye”⠀⇛ In this tutorial, you will learn how to make changes to sources.list file on Debian 11. sources.list file contains the sources from where packages are going to be downloaded on your system. Adding or removing sources from the sources.list is easy, and it can be done easily # ⚓ nixCraft ☛ How_to_install_ZFS_in_Debian_12_“Bookworm”⠀⇛ Here is a quick tutorial on installing ZFS support in Debian Linux 12 “Bookworm” using “apt” or “apt- get” command-line option. # ⚓ The New Stack ☛ How_to_Share_Data_between_2_Docker Containers⠀⇛ The Docker container ecosystem is full of really handy (and cool) tricks. o § Games⠀➾ # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Shall_We_Hack_A_Game?⠀⇛ A fantastic summertime game has consumed many of the kids in my neighborhood. It’s basically a treasure hunt, but the treasures are all shoebox- sized NFC readers that are “easily” findable on a map. Players all have a smart card and run around from box to box, collecting points that depend on how far apart the boxes are from each other. Walk, skate, or bike 1 km between check-ins, and ten points show up on the e-paper screen. o § Desktop Environments/WMs⠀➾ # § GNOME Desktop/GTK⠀➾ # ⚓ OMG! Linux ☛ Slick_New_Feature_Added_to_GNOME’s_Web Browser⠀⇛ GNOME Web, also known as Epiphany, is a great lightweight web browser with a number of compelling features, including Firefox Sync. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § Reviews⠀➾ # ⚓ Liam Proven ☛ Evaluating_Plan_9_(and_Inferno)⠀⇛ There are a lot of things in Plan 9 which are not improvements over conventional Unix… but it seems to me that this is partly because it’s stuck in its tiny little niche and never got the rough edges worn down by exposure to millions. I was a support guy, not a programmer. I started Unixing on SCO Xenix and later dabbled in AIX and Solaris, and they were all painful experiences with so many rough edges that I found them really unpleasant to use. Linux in the 1990s was, too. Frankly WinNT was a much more pleasant experience. But while Win2K was pleasant, XP was a bloated mess of themes and mandatory uninstallable junk like Movie Maker. So I switched to Linux and found that, 5-6 years after I first tried Slackware and RHL and other early distros with 0.x or 1.0 kernels, it was much more polished now. By a few years later, the experience for non- programmers was pretty good. It uses bold and underline and italics and colour and ANSI block characters, right in the terminal, because it assumes you’re using a PC, while the BSDs still don’t because you might be on a dumb terminal or a VAX or a SPARCstation or something. (!) Linux just natively supports the cursor keys. It supports up and down and command-line editing, the way Windows does, the way PC folk expect. BSD doesn’t do this, or very poorly. Linux just natively supports plain old DOS/Windows style partitions, whereas BSD did arcane stuff involving “slices” inside its own special primary partitions. (GPT finally banishes this.) o § New Releases⠀➾ # ⚓ Linuxiac ☛ KaOS_2023.06_Brings_Latest_Plasma,_Bugfixes,_and New_Apps⠀⇛ The June release of KaOS, 2023.06, gives users Linux kernel 6.3.10, the latest Plasma 5.27.6, and adds new tools to the distro’s arsenal. o § Debian Family⠀➾ # ⚓ Linuxiac ☛ Peppermint_OS_Debian’s_Branch_Is_Now_Rebased_on Bookworm⠀⇛ It’s a minimalistic distribution, betting on the Xfce desktop environment, that demands fewer hardware resources, thus an excellent choice for the older machine. Yesterday, the new version of Peppermint OS finally became available, so let’s dive in and see what’s changed. # ⚓ Debian_Brasil:_MiniDebConf_Brasília_2023_–_a_brief_report⠀⇛ From May 25th to 27th, Brasília hosted the MiniDebConf_2023. This gathering, composed of various activities such as talks, workshops, sprints, BSP (Bug Squashing Party), key signing, social events, and hacking, aimed to bring the community together and celebrate the world’s largest Free Software project: Debian. The MiniDebConf Brasília 2023 was a success thanks to the participation of everyone, regardless of their level of knowledge about Debian. We valued the presence of both beginners who are getting familiar with the system and official project developers. The spirit of inclusion and collaboration was present throughout the event. MiniDebConfs are local meetings organized by members of the Debian Project, aiming to achieve similar goals as DebConf but on a regional scale. Throughout the year, events like this occur in different parts of the world, strengthening the Debian community. o § Canonical/Ubuntu Family⠀➾ # ⚓ 9to5Linux ☛ You_Can_Now_Install_Linux_Kernel_6.4_on_Ubuntu, Here’s_How⠀⇛ Linux kernel 6.4 was released last weekend by Linus Torvalds and it’s already available for installations for Ubuntu systems from Canonical’s official Ubuntu Mainline Kernel Archive for amd64 (x86_64), AArch64 (ARM64), ARMhf, PowerPC 64-bit Little Endian (ppc64el), and IBM System z (s390x) architectures. I’ve only installed and tested Linux kernel 6.4 on Ubuntu 23.04 (Lunar Lobster) because I never recommend upgrading to a mainline kernel on Ubuntu LTS release and the Ubuntu 22.10 (Kinetic Kudu) release is about to reach end of life later this month. # ⚓ Linux Mint ☛ Linux_Mint_Monthly_News_–_June_2023⠀⇛ Many thanks to all the people who are testing and finding bugs in the BETA. So far we gathered 60 bug reports. Many issues were fixed already thanks to your feedback. Many thanks also to our sponsors and all the people who support us with donations. o § Devices/Embedded⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ Kontron_presents_Thin_mITX_motherboard_for 12th/13th_Intel_CoreTM_CPUs⠀⇛ The K3831-H Thin mITX is the latest Kontron’s motherboard powered by Intel Core i9/i7/i5/i3 and Intel Pentium/Celeron processor series. Some of the key features on this product are its DDR5 memory support, dual GbE ports and multiple display interfaces. # ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ TI’s_Launchpads_feature_Wireless_MCUs⠀⇛ Texas Instruments recently launched two development kits based on the CC2340R5 and the CC1314R10 wireless microcontrollers. These Launchpads support protocols such as Bluetooth 5 Low Energy, Sub- 1 GHz, Wi-SUN, etc. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Unicorn Media ☛ System76_Is_Making_Cases_for_Building_Do- It-Yourself_Computers⠀⇛ System76, the Colorado-based pre-installed Linux computer company, continues to expand its offerings beyond ready-to-use laptops, desktops, and servers. On Thursday, the company announced that for the do- it-yourselfer it’s released Nebula, a line of PC cases (or chassis) for those who like to make their own computers from scratch. Although the company continues to introduce new computers at a rapid pace, during the last couple of years the company has also been releasing related products, which runs the gamut from software to hardware. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Importing_EAGLE_Projects_Into_KiCad_7,_And_How To_Fix_Them⠀⇛ Migrating a PCB design from one CAD software package to another is no one’s favorite task. It almost never works cleanly. Often there are missing schematic symbols, scrambled PCB footprints, and plenty of other problems. Thankfully [shabaz] shows how to import EAGLE projects into KiCad 7 and fix the most common problems one is likely to encounter in the process. Frankly, the information couldn’t come at a better time. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Fujitsu_Proprietary_Keyboard_Goes_PS/2_With_A Pico⠀⇛ One of our favorite retro-computing YouTubers, [Clint] from LGR, found himself a very interesting Fujitsu keyboard while thrift store shopping. It was a beautiful unit, but confusing, as this keyboard comes with an 8-pin DIN connector. A 5-pin DIN plug or 6-pin Mini-DIN would be easy to work with, but what was this odd connection? Turns out the Fujitsu N860-2500-T111 came with an Olympus CV- 100 Video Processor, which was designed for medical imaging, potentially among other uses. And as often happened with old specialized hardware, the keyboard used a proprietary protocol for sending keystrokes. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ An_ESP32_Dev_Board_As_A_Framework_Laptop Module⠀⇛ The Framework laptop will no doubt already have caught the eye of more than one Hackaday reader, as a machine designed for upgrade and expansion by its users. One of its key features is a system of expansion modules. The modules are USB-C devices in a form factor that slides into the expansion bays on the Framework Laptop.  Framework encourages the development of new modules, which is something [Spacehuhn] has taken on with an ESP32-S3 development board. o § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ SlashGear ☛ Should_You_Buy_A_Foldable_Android_Phone?_Pros And_Cons⠀⇛ # ⚓ Phone Arena ☛ Google_Maps_turns_previous_Android_Auto “issue”_into_a_great_feature_–_PhoneArena⠀⇛ # ⚓ Gizmo China ☛ Google_Play_Store_36.3.12_Apk_now_rolling_out to_Android_devices⠀⇛ # ⚓ Ghacks ☛ How_to_fix_“app_not_installed”_error_on_Android⠀⇛ # ⚓ GSM Arena ☛ Flashback:_phones_that_weren’t,_part_3:_making a_new_smartphone_OS_is_hard_–_GSMArena.com_news⠀⇛ # ⚓ SlashGear ☛ Basic_And_Affordable_Android_Phones_Worth Checking_Out_In_2023⠀⇛ # ⚓ SlashGear ☛ 5_Android_Apps_Every_Golfer_Should_Have Installed⠀⇛ * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ Liam Proven ☛ Comparing_niche_programming_languages_to_the mainstream⠀⇛ I think you are focusing on the trees and so not seeing the size and the shape of the forest. Most organisations use C and languages implemented in C, on OSes implemented in C, because they do the job, the people are cheap and readily available, and the dominant OS is free and costs nothing to deploy. Which can be reduced to: Most people use the tools most people use. That’s not a very useful observation, but it poses an interesting question: Why? That’s easier. Here is the shape of the outside of the answer: They use them not because they are good — they aren’t very good, measured objectively — but because they are ubiquitous and cheap. Other tools are better, and just as free, but then the people cost more, and the associated tooling costs more. (Frameworks, supporting libraries, deployment costs, whatever. E.g. it’s very cheap to deploy Javascript because all you need is a reasonably modern browser, and those are free and almost all OSes have them.) Those are the externalities, in a manner of speaking. # ⚓ Daniel B Markham ☛ Twilight_Of_The_Programmers⠀⇛ Our profession does structured analysis in a way no other profession has ever done. Let’s not lose that precious gift. # ⚓ XML_is_the_future⠀⇛ My first hype exposure was “use the Extensible Markup Language for everything”. Learning from it allowed me to live through the front end stack explosion, the micro-service overdose and many, many more silly trends. # ⚓ Gathering_the_streams⠀⇛ Java 8 introduced the java.util.stream API, which represents a lazily computed, potentially unbounded sequence of values (Streams was also the first designed-for-lambdas API in the JDK). Streams supports the ability to process the stream either sequentially or in parallel. A Stream pipeline consists of a source (collection, array, generator, etc), zero or more intermediate operations (Stream -> Stream transforms), and an eager terminal operation which produces a value or a side-effect. The Streams API come with a reasonably rich, but fixed set of built-in operations (mapping, filtering, reduction, sorting, etc), as well as an extensible terminal operation (Stream::collect) that enables the stream contents to be flexibly summarized in a variety of forms. The resulting API is rich enough that users have had good experience with streams, but there are repeated requests for “please add operation X to streams”. In this document, we explore a corresponding extensible intermediate operation, called # ⚓ Google ☛ Rust_fact_vs._fiction:_5_Insights_from_Google’s Rust_journey_in_2022⠀⇛ Reaching version 1.0 in just 2015, Rust is a relatively new language with a lot to offer. Developers eyeing the performance and safety guarantees that Rust provides, have to wonder if it’s possible to just use Rust in place of what they’ve been using previously. What would happen if large companies tried to use it in their existing environment? How long would it take for developers to learn the language? Once they do, would they be productive? In this post, we will analyze some data covering years of early adoption of Rust here at Google. At Google, we have been seeing increased Rust adoption, especially in our consumer applications and platforms. Pulling from the over 1,000 Google developers who have authored and committed Rust code as some part of their work in 2022, we’ll address some rumors head-on, both confirming some issues that could be improved and sharing some enlightening discoveries we have made along the way. # ⚓ Evan Ovadia ☛ Making_C++_Memory-Safe_Without_Borrow Checking,_Reference_Counting,_or_Tracing_Garbage_Collection⠀⇛ Adding memory safety to C++ is a very difficult problem, to say the least. I’ve spent most of the last decade exploring this area (mainly to design Vale’s memory safety) and I’ve discovered some surprising things. The world largely believes that the only ways to make code memory safe are through reference counting, tracing garbage collection, or borrow checking. It turns out, there’s at least eleven more methods 0 1 with more being discovered all the time if you know where to look. 2 Someone asked me recently, can we use these techniques to add memory safety to C++? We can! It’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while, and it’s about time I write it all down. # ⚓ Programming_Languages_Going_Above_and_Beyond⠀⇛ Having been a programmer for a long time now, I have experienced my fair share of programming languages. What strikes me the most is that programming languages have not improved much over the years. Java, for example, has certainly improved from when I started using it in the mid- nineties — but only in pretty minor ways. We still get buffer overflows and integer overflows. The compiler still cannot tell when our loops will terminate (yes, this is possible). Aliasing is still a complete unbridled mess. Even Rust, my favourite language du jour, only offers a minor improvement on the status quo. These are not stop- the-world everything has changed kinds of improvements. Still, big improvements are possible. I now use, on a daily basis, a language (Dafny) which often genuinely amazes me. I’ll admit, its not super easy to use and perhaps not ready yet for mainstream — but, it gives a glimpse of what is possible. Dafny’s ability to statically check critical properties of your program goes well beyond what mainstream languages can do (that includes you, Rust). # ⚓ Hubert Figuière ☛ Hubert_Figuière:_Niepce_June_2023 updates⠀⇛ Since the inception I had the plan to have two kinds of way to “store” image imported. Managed and mot managed. Managed meant that the file would be “owned” by the library, copied into a location controlled by the app. Not managed meant it’s just a reference to a file on the filesystem. This concept idea came from Apple Aperture™ that did just that, where you’d have a library occuping dozens of GB on your disk. The storage layout of the files was abstracted. Instead I decided to simplify the approach. Importing files will by default reference, or will copy into a specific location (when importing from a camera, only the latter). The folders are actual directories in storage and this goes hand in hand with the recursive import. So I just ripped out the Managed enum wherever it was used and ignored. This was unfortunately ported from the C++ code a while ago. # ⚓ Sriyansh_Shivam:_GSoC_2023:_Monthly_Report⠀⇛ It’s been a month since the start of the GSoC 2023 coding period. There is a lot to talk about and show, but here are the highlights of the month and the things I worked on. # § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Hint ☛ Python_random_string_generation⠀⇛ The “random.choices()” method of the random “module” and the “secrets.choice()” method of the “secrets” module is used to retrieve the random string in Python. # § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ Bash_source_Command_with_Examples⠀⇛ The Bash source command is a built-in shell tool that plays a pivotal role in the world of Linux and UNIX operating systems. It’s designed to read and execute commands from a specified file within the current shell environment. # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ Bash_eval_Command_with_Examples⠀⇛ Bash scripting offers a powerful built-in utility known as the eval command. This command evaluates and executes strings as shell commands, making it an essential tool in scenarios that involve special operators, reserved keywords, or scripts where variable names are not predetermined. # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ Bash_printf_Command_with_Examples⠀⇛ In Bash scripting, the printf command is a robust utility that offers extensive control over output formatting. Originating from the C programming language’s printf() function, printf in Bash is a built-in command, taking precedence over the standalone /usr/bin/ printf binary. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 5331 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 07.02.23⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Gemini_version_available_♊︎ ✐ Links_02/07/2023:_Switching_From_Windows_to_Ubuntu,_IBM’s_Red_Bait_Promotes Outsourcing⠀✐ Posted in News_Roundup at 6:03 am by Dr. Roy Schestowitz 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * GNU/Linux o Desktop/Laptop o Kernel_Space o Instructionals/Technical o Games o Desktop_Environments/WMs # K_Desktop_Environment/KDE_SC/Qt * Distributions_and_Operating_Systems o Fedora_Family_/_IBM o Open_Hardware/Modding o Mobile_Systems/Mobile_Applications * Free,_Libre,_and_Open_Source_Software o Content_Management_Systems_(CMS) o Education o Programming/Development # Python * § GNU/Linux⠀➾ o § Desktop/Laptop⠀➾ # ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ 8_Things_You_Need_to_Know_Before_Switching From_Windows_to_Ubuntu⠀⇛ Transitioning from Windows to Ubuntu can be daunting at first especially if you’ve never used a Linux-based system before. However, you shouldn’t face any challenges or surprises if you’re properly prepared for the switch. Preparation for the transition is easy and involves knowing just a few things that might work a little bit differently on the new platform. Here are eight things you need to take note of before making the switch from Windows to Ubuntu. o § Kernel Space⠀➾ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_6.4.1⠀⇛ I'm announcing the release of the 6.4.1 kernel. All users of the 6.4 kernel series must upgrade. The updated 6.4.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/ git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-6.4.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_6.3.11⠀⇛ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Linux_6.1.37⠀⇛ # ⚓ SDx Central ☛ How_Linux_6.4_Kernel_improves_Wi-Fi_7_and IPv6_networking⠀⇛ The recently released Linux 6.4 kernel is making some big networking strides that end users, enterprises and service providers will benefit from in the months to come. The Linux kernel offers essential capabilities for running operations that are widely used in networking equipment, enterprise, telco and the cloud. The kernel is part of a larger Linux operating system, with various vendors offering supported distributions including Red Hat, SUSE, and Canonical. Linux kernel development follows a rapid pace with new releases every six to ten weeks. Among the key networking features in Linux 6.4 are multiple improvements to improve traffic flow, extended support for Wi-Fi 7 wireless networking, new eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) features and IPv6 optimizations. o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ # ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Docker_on_Debian_12⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Docker on Debian 12. For those of you who didn’t know, Docker is a powerful containerization platform, that revolutionizes the way software is developed, deployed, and managed. With its ability to isolate applications and their dependencies, Docker offers enhanced portability, scalability, and efficiency. # ⚓ FOSSLinux ☛ Maximizing_online_security_with_OpenVPN_on_Kali Linux⠀⇛ In the digital era, where our personal and professional lives often intertwine with the online world, privacy and security have become paramount. One effective method of ensuring this is by using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). openVPN, an open- source VPN software, is particularly popular due to its robustness and versatility. When used with an OS like Kali Linux, known for its advanced penetration testing and security auditing features, you get a robust solution for your online privacy needs. # ⚓ Remy Van Elst ☛ Site_update,_self-hosted_search_via pagefind⠀⇛ This is a static site, meaning that no server-side processing occurs. All HTML is generated out of a few folders full of markdown source and then uploaded to the cluster. Searching on this site was always provided by a text-box form that sent you to google with ‘site:raymii.org’ appended to it. Works fine, but it sends all data to Google. With my recent removal of all Google Ads on this site, as well as tracking via Google Analytics, sending searches via Google seems wrong. I recently found the pagefind program which I now use on here, it is a self hosted static site search engine of sorts. # ⚓ Beebom ☛ How_to_Install_and_Use_Flatpak_on_Ubuntu⠀⇛ With the release of Ubuntu 23.04, Canonical has made a shocking announcement that it will no longer ship new versions of Ubuntu with Flatpak. Instead, all new Ubuntu flavors will come with the Snap Store. However, not everyone is a fan of the Snap package manager and their slow app, instead many prefer to use Flatpak for their software needs. For the uninitiated, Flatpak is a cross-distro package manager used to download and manage applications. If you are one of those users, learn how to download and use Flatpak on Ubuntu 23.04. # ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ How_to_Use_the_ex_Line_Editor_on_Linux⠀⇛ While most people have used screen editors like nano or Vim on Linux for a long time, there is still a holdover from the days of teletypes available: ex, a line editor. While it may be very old, it still has some uses. [...] Line editors were mainly used when most people used printing terminals, also known as teleprinters or teletypes, to interact with a computer. Since these devices printed on paper, it was impractical to print a whole file just to change a few lines. These devices also had a major influence on the length of Linux commands. When video terminals became popular, many people switched to screen editors because they could see the whole file at once. Most users found this far more convenient than the old line editors, and they stuck with them with the transition from terminals connected to a minicomputer or mainframe to desktop computers running terminal emulators and GUIs. # ⚓ Make Tech Easier ☛ 6_Ways_to_Run_Linux_Software_on_Mac⠀⇛ If you’ve ever wanted to dip your toes into the vast ocean of Linux software, but you enjoy the comfort of your Mac, then you’re in the right place. Today, we’re going to break down six methods of running Linux software on your Mac – making it easy to experience the power of open-source software and turbo-charge your Mac at the same time. # ⚓ Beebom ☛ How_to_Create_Symbolic_Links_in_Linux_|_Beebom⠀⇛ Symbolic links or symlinks are one of the most important Linux features, especially for aspiring Linux sysadmins. As the name suggests, symbolic links allow users to point a file toward another file without mirroring its data, essentially providing you with multiple places to access the same file. So, in this guide, let’s look at how you can create symbolic links in Linux. # ⚓ Beebom ☛ How_to_Copy_Files_in_Linux_(2_Ways)_|_Beebom⠀⇛ Learning file management in Linux is the key to efficient workflow. One of the most basic tasks that you would need to learn as a Linux beginner is copying files. Terminal is your friend in Linux and it can be used to most even the simplest of tasks quickly. As a beginner, if you’re struggling with copying files, here’s a tutorial with two different methods detailing how to copy files in Linux. o § Games⠀➾ # ⚓ This_32-bit_computer_made_in_Terraria_can_play_Pong_and_run Linux⠀⇛ Move over Redstone computers in Minecraft, hello 32-bit computers in Terraria. An engineering student has developed a functional “fully compliant RISC-v computer” in the 2D sandbox game. Computerraria, as developer Xander Naumenko calls it, took over 600 hours in the space of five months to develop, and stands as an incredibly impressive feat of technical achievement. o § Desktop Environments/WMs⠀➾ # § K Desktop Environment/KDE SC/Qt⠀➾ # ⚓ GSoC-23_Week_3-4_|_Finalizing_Account_Moderation_tool &_Adding_Report_Moderation_Tool_#4⠀⇛ Hello world, This is my fourth blog post and a continuation to my previous_blog_posts for Google Summer of Code 2023 under KDE. In this blog, I will be sharing my experiences during the 3rd and 4th weeks of GSoC’23. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Nokia_and_Red_Hat_Announce_Partnership for_New_Best-in-Class_Telecommunications_Solutions_Based_on Red_Hat_Infrastructure_Platforms_and_Nokia’s_Core_Network Applications⠀⇛ # ⚓ SDx Central ☛ How_Red_Hat_plans_to_ride_OpenStack_to greater_telecom_success⠀⇛ # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Integration_of_Red_Hat_services_with_HPE GreenLake_offers_optimization_at_the_edge [Ed: Red Hat bribes this publisher for puff pieces.

A perfect next step after completing our Intro to Unity path # ⚓ Linus Åkesson ☛ C64_Cartridge_on_a_Stripboard⠀⇛ People ask me why the Commodordion boots from a tape drive emulator, which takes a couple of seconds and involves manual key presses. In contrast, an autostart cartridge on the expansion port would get everything up and running instantly at power-on. In the particular case of the Commodordion, there’s a lack of space around the expansion ports. But in addition to that, the answer I usually give is that it’s much easier to implement a tape drive emulator than a cartridge. The communication protocol is slow and needs only a few wires, whereas a cartridge interfaces directly with the buses of the computer (via dozens of signals) and needs to respond in a fraction of a microsecond. And I knew I could build a tape drive emulator using components that I already had at home, whereas making my own cartridge would involve designing and ordering a custom PCB. Or would it? The question kept itching at the back of my head. Wouldn’t it be a nice challenge to try to make an autostarting C64 cartridge on a humble stripboard? # ⚓ Linus Åkesson ☛ Platform_Hopping⠀⇛ The SID chip (Sound Interface Device) in the Commodore 64 has three channels, which means that it can play up to three sounds at the same time. A channel can be individually configured to play any one of the supported sounds, such as pulse wave, triangle wave, or white noise. In contrast, the APU (Audio Processing Unit) of the NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) offers five fixed-function channels: Two pulse-wave channels, one triangle-wave channel, one noise channel, and one channel for sample playback.2 # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ ESP32-S3_board_features_2.8-inch_display, Blackberry-like_keyboard,_and_optional_LoRaWAN_connectivity⠀⇛ LILYGO T-Deck is a development kit with an ESP32-S3 WiFi and BLE module, a 2.8-inch display with touchscreen support, a Blackberry-like keyboard based on ESP32-S3, and optional LoRaWAN connectivity through an SX1262 LoRa module. It looks ideal for text-based messaging, but the devkit also includes two microphones and a speaker so audio communication must be possible. Other features include a MicroSD card slot, a Grove connector (UART) for expansion, and support for a LiPo battery with USB charging. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ $26_WiFi_6_router_board_features_Triductor TR6560_&_TR5220_chips⠀⇛ Banana Pi BPI-Wifi 6 is an ultra-low-cost WiFi 6 router board with five Gigabit Ethernet ports based on Triductor Technology TR6560 dual-core Cortex-A9 router SoC and TR5220 WiFi 6 chipset and that sells for just $26.32 plus shipping on Aliexpress, or $39.99 as part of a kit with the board, four antennas, and a 12V power supply. The board is equipped with 512MB RAM and a 128MB SPI flash for OpenWrt, comes with four antenna connectors for WiFi, and can also take an optional 12V PoE module for power instead of relying on a 12V power adapter via a DC jack. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Mekotronics_A58_–_A_7-inch_display_with Rockchip_RK3588_SoC_and_a_DSLR_camera_mount_for_live streaming⠀⇛ Mekotronics A58 7-inch smart display is powered by a Rockchip RK3588 SoC with up to 16GB RAM and 128GB eMMC flash, and ships with a DSLR camera mount to enable video broadcasting and live streaming on social platforms. In the past, we’ve covered several Rockchip RK3588-powered Arm mini PCs by Mekotronics such as the R58, R58X, and more recently the R58X-Pro and R58X-HDD models, but the company has now leveraged its experience with the platform by launching a 7-inch smart display that can be used for live-streaming, but as we’ll see from the specifications below can also find many other uses. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Toshiba_“MH3_Group_(2)”_Arm_Cortex-M3_MCU supports_firmware_updates_without_interrupting_operation⠀⇛ Toshiba “MH3 Group (2)” Arm Cortex-M3 microcontrollers come with a 1MB flash memory partitioned into two 512KB partitions to enable firmware updates without interrupting microcontroller operation using an area swap function to rotate to the new firmware seamlessly. The new M3H Group (2) builds upon the M3H Group(1) by expanding the code flash memory up to 1MB, and the RAM capacity from 66KB to 130KB. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ ANAVI_launches_CircuitPython-programmable Macro_Pad_12_&_Arrows_mechanical_keyboards_(Crowdfunding)⠀⇛ ANAVI Technology has launched two more open-source hardware mechanical keyboards based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller, equipped with an OLED display, and programmable with CircuitPython: the ANAVI Macro Pad 12 with 12 keys and the ANAVI Arrows with four keys and a rotatory encoder. The new mechanical keyboards follow ANAVI Macro Pad 10 & Knobs input devices equipped with the same Seeed Studio XIAO RP2040 MCU module running the KMK firmware written with CircuitPython, but with different form factors and features. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ NEWRACOM_NRC7394_WiFi_HaLow_SoC_delivers higher_power_efficiency_and_cost-effectiveness⠀⇛ NEWRACOM has just introduced the NRC7394 Wi-Fi HaLow Arm Cortex-M3 SoC with higher power efficiency and lower cost than the previous generation NRC7292 Cortex-M3/M0 HaLow SoC and available in a 6x6mm package. I first wrote about the 802.11ah standard in 2014. Also known as the WiFi HaLow (consumers name), it operates in the 900 MHz band, offers a longer range and lower power consumption for items like IP cameras, and the first products came to market in 2021. I was expecting a flood of new WiFi HaLow devices in 2022 in my year 2021 round-up and it was not exactly a prescient prediction as it never happened. But maybe the new NRC7394 SoC will help make WiFi HaLow devices more popular by lowering the costs and further improving battery life. o § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ Chris Hannah ☛ Minimalist_Phone_#⠀⇛ The whole piece was interesting, because I for one, haven’t thought about digital The whole piece was interesting, because I for one, haven’t thought about digital minimalism in regards to phones. Except for using fewer apps. But this is more about being constrained physically. * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ Devever ☛ The_problem_with_federated_web_apps⠀⇛ Trying to make web applications federated is a popular effort. Examples include things like the “fediverse”, as well as various other efforts, like attempts to make distributed software forges, and so on. However, all of these efforts suffer from a problem which is fundamental in building federated applications built on top of the web platform. The problem is fundamentally this: when building an application on top of the web platform, an HTTP URL inherently couples an application and a resource. Let’s take the Fediverse as an example. Suppose some user profile is hosted at https://example.com/johnsmith. This URL can be used by Fediverse clients to retrieve machine- readable profile information, but visiting it in a web browser, or clicking a link to it from some other location, results in loading a specific application served from example.com and chosen by the operator of that server. o ⚓ Medevel ☛ OpenSearchServer:_Self-hosted_Open-source_High Performance_Search_Engine.⠀⇛ OpenSearchServer is an open-source search engine software that allows developers to create their own search engine for their websites or applications. It is developed in Java and comes with a REST API that allows developers to integrate search functionality into their applications easily. OpenSearchServer is a powerful, enterprise-class, search engine o § Content Management Systems (CMS)⠀➾ # ⚓ WordPress ☛ WordPress_6.3_Beta_2⠀⇛ WordPress 6.3 Beta 2 is ready for download and testing. This version of the WordPress software is under development. Please do not install, run, or test this version of WordPress on production or mission- critical websites. Instead, it is recommended that you test Beta 2 on a test server and site. o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Meet_Tim_Hunkin_|_HackSpace_#68⠀⇛ Think of automata, and the image that pops into your head will most likely depend on your age. If you’re a child of the 1980s, you’re most likely imagining the seaside amusement from the film Big that turns a child into Tom Hanks. If you’re a child of the 1880s, you might be thinking of the Mechanical Turk, the machine that terrified audiences by seeming to play chess against a human opponent. Others still may think of the works of Tim Hunkin. He’s been building machines to inspire and delight for decades, and now has two arcades full of his own creations: Novelty Automation in London, and the Under The Pier Show in Southwold. We caught up with him to chat about precision, engineering, and the joy of the mechanical in a digital world. o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] Nikita Lapkov ☛ Switching_From_C++_to_Rust⠀⇛ I have been writing C++ professionally for the last 4 years and 3 months ago I started a new job in Rust. I would like to share my experience and thoughts on the transition between 2 languages. Disclaimer: This article is not a C++ vs Rust comparison. I will talk about my personal experience and things which are important to me, not the engineering community in general. # ⚓ Earthly ☛ Rust_Macros:_Practical_Examples_and_Best Practices⠀⇛ In Rust, macros are pieces of code that generate other Rust code using a technique commonly known as metaprogramming. A macro is expanded during compilation, and the output of a macro is inserted into the source code of the program. The most famous example of a macro is println!. Even though it looks like a function and is used like a function, it’s actually expanded during compilation, and the println! call is replaced with a more complex implementation code. In this article, you’ll see some practical examples of macros and learn some tips and tricks on how to best use them. # ⚓ Rlang ☛ parallelly:_Querying,_Killing_and_Cloning_Parallel Workers_Running_Locally_or_Remotely⠀⇛ parallelly 1.36.0 is on CRAN since May 2023. The parallelly package is part of the Futureverse and enhances the parallel package of base R, e.g. it adds several features you’d otherwise expect to see in parallel. The parallelly package is one of the internal work horses for the future package, but it can also be used outside of the future ecosystem. # ⚓ Daniel Lemire ☛ Parsing_time_stamps_faster_with_SIMD instructions⠀⇛ In software, it is common to represent time as a time-stamp string. It is usually specified by a time format string. Some standards use the format %Y%m%d%H%M%S meaning that we print the year, the month, the day, the hours, the minutes and the seconds. The current time as I write this blog post would be 20230701205436 as a time stamp in this format. It is convenient because it is short, easy to read and if you sort the strings lexicographically, you also sort them chronologically. # § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ Seth Michael Larson ☛ Security_Developer-in-Residence –_Weekly_Report_#1⠀⇛ After announcing myself and my mission to the CPython Core Developers I was quickly invited to join the Python Security Response Team (PSRT) in order to help with triaging and responding to security reports for CPython. So now when you email security@python.org there’s a chance I’ll be the one helping you out. I’ve also become a moderator of the mailing list to help with sorting through spam and invalid requests. In addition to joining the team, I’ve been gathering feedback from members of the PSRT in order to improve the processes that already exist. From listening to folks, I’ve heard three common topics and have put together a set of proposed changes to be discussed by PSRT members and ultimately approved by the Python Steering Council. The three topics I’ve heard are: [...] ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 6039 ➮ Generation completed at 02:42, i.e. 102 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
