#USfascism / ‘The American system is being destroyed’: academics on leaving US for ‘scientific asylum’ in France
The situation is being compared to the welcoming of exiled researchers to #France during World War II. Researchers express concerns about censorship, potential deportation for speaking out against the government, and a general discouragement in the current academic climate.
We must not overlook of course the role that hypocritical and baseless accusations of #antisemitism in academia have played in justifying politically motivated academic crackdowns.

Timecodes: 00:00 Intro 00:38 Sponsor: Thunderbird 01:26 Mint 21.3: still the old LTS 02:37 Wayland session: pretty good! 07:10 Wayland + Nvidia: no extra issues 08:20 Gaming: works as expected 09:51 Other Changes to Mint 21.3 12:11 Parting Thoughts 13:46 Sponsor: Tuxedo 14:56 Support the channel
Mint 21.3 is still based on Ubuntu 22.04 and its super old kernel, version 5.15. You do get the Mesa drivers version 23, but you don't get the latest Nvidia drivers either, you're still on 535.
So, you can select that new Wayland session from the login screen. I tested this on a spare laptop that uses an Intel Xe integrated GPU, and also has a dedicated Nvidia GPU.
At first glance, everything seems to work ok, but it's an experimental session, and it's missing a few things. OBS, for example, has no source for the display: Cinnamon doesn't seem to support the screen sharing protocol through pipewire, so OBS has nothing to display here. You won't be sharing your screen to anyone just yet.
Another issue I encountered is the lack of any sudo graphical prompt: anytime I needed to install a package or update the system, I had to use the command line.
I also got some inconsistencies in the place where menus appeared, there were also a few things that I couldn't find, like changing the keyboard layout in the Wayland session, the "layouts" tab doesn't appear in the settings where it should be. The gestures of Cinnamon also don't work here for now, you can enable them, but they won't do anything.
The hot corners did work though, with their nice animations and features, but there were some weird graphical things happening. Some settings pages also seemed to have some sort of infinite scroll and didn't stop at their own content, which was a bit weird.
After that, I tried the Wayland session on Nvidia, and, all the problems I had experienced previously were still there, obviously, because they all are missing features in that experimental session, so no reason to expect them to work better here. But I also didn't get any other issue that I didn't see in the wayland session with the Mesa drivers.
So just as a little experiment, I also decided to run a game in the Wayland session, namely Warhammer 40K Mechanicus: - Wayland + Intel: 25-32 FPS - Wayland + Nvidia: 60-65 FPS - X11 + Intel: 32-37 FPS - X11 + Nvidia: 65-75 FPS
Ok, so now, let's talk about the other changes in Linux Mint 21.3. In terms of apps updates, Hypnotix, the TV watching app now lets you set channels as favorites. You can also create your own custom TV channels if you want.
Cinnamon will also now let you download Actions. These are add-ons for the file manager, that will appear in the right click context menu, letting you do, well, custom actions.
Warpinator, the file sharing app now lets you connect to a device manually by just entering its IP address of scanning a QR code. The Sticky Notes app can now be managed by DBus, meaning you can manage notes using scripts, and the bulk rename tool of Mint now supports drag and drop and thumbnails.
As per the desktop itself, you can now use 75% fractional scaling on X11 if you want that, you can also set keybinds to change the window opacity again, you can disable stylus buttons if you use that sort of hardware, and gestures got a bit better with the ability to set a gesture to zoom in on the desktop.

00:00 Intro 00:30 Sponsor: Stream any OS, desktop, or app to your browser 01:24 Touchpad Gestures 03:43 Look & Feel 06:26 Desktop & Apps 10:12 Internals 11:00 XFCE and MATE variants 13:35 Parting Thoughts 15:13 Sponsor: Get a PC that runs Linux perfectly 16:30 Support the channel
If you got used to the super smooth 1:1 gestures for GNOME or Plasma on Wayland, or even elementary OS on X11, you'll be disappointed here. Mint still uses X11, and their gestures act like keyboard shortcuts. You perform the gesture on the touchpad, and once your fingers have moved enough, the animation happens all at once.
Gestures are disabled by default, you'll be able to enable them in the new Settings panel. They are very configurable though, contrary to GNOME or KDE.
Mint 21.2 also changes a few things in terms of how the distro looks, or can look. First, instead of the endless list of selectable themes, in their dark or light variant, and all their color variants, you now get Styles.
The Style defines the theme you're using, for example MintY, Adwaita, or the older Mint X. For each style, you can pick mixed mode, where apps can be light or dark at the same time, dark mode, where every app that supports the dark mode preference will use it, and light mode.
And on top of that, you have a choice of accent colors, if the theme supports it, for example, there are no accent colors for Adwaita, or the High COntrast theme.
Folder icons are now longer the same color as what WIndows uses, they'll now use your accent color instead, which is much better in my opinion.
On the desktop side of things, the login screen received a lot of improvements, with support for multiple keyboard layouts that you can switch between, and support for tap to click as well.
The onscreen keyboard is usable there, and you can also configure the layout for it, and you can now more easily navigate this login screen using the keyboard and the arrow keys.
Once you're logged in, you can now resize the main menu, by dragging its corner or its edge, and you can now disable notifications for connected devices that have a low battery level.
As per the apps, the file manager, Nemo, now generates thumbnails using multi threading, which means it should be way faster.
The software manager got a small UI refresh, with the search field inline in a headerbar, with the hamburger menu moving there as well. The app pages also got a small redesign, with buttons in the header to install, and to show the installation source.
Pix, the image viewer, got a lot of changes, mostly due to its rebase on a new version of GTHumb.
Finally, Warpinator, the PC to PC file transfer program, was reviewed by the openSUSE team, and some security issues were discovered and fixed.
All Linux Mint editions are still based on Ubuntu 22.04, and they're all LTS, supported until 2027. The next base change will be when Ubuntu 24.04 releases, which means that in the meantime, you get the Linux kernel 5.15, and older Mesa and Nvidia drivers.
Now, for the XFCE variant, you get the same improvements to the login screen, the apps and the software manager, plus the new colored folder icons, tooltips and notifications, and the symbolic icon changes. You're not getting the Styles manager and selector though, and you're not getting the touchpad gestures either.
Still, you do get XFCE 4.18, which is a solid update over 4.16 that Mint used in the previous release.
As per MATE, it gets the same stuff as XFCE, so no gestures or style manager, and it's still on MATE 1.26, same as the previous Linux Mint release.

Adana Katliamları-20. Yüzyıl Başında Devrim ve Şiddet - Bedross Der Matossian (Çev. Renan Akman) (372 sayfa) Adana Katliamları, 1908 Jön Türk Devrimi sonrası oluşan birlikte yaşama ve özgürlük umutlarının yerini nasıl şiddetin ve çatışmanın aldığını gözler önüne seriyor. 1909 yılında Adana ve çevresinde paranoyanın neden olduğu iki ayrı katliam dalgasıyla öldürülen Ermenileri, yakıp yıkılan mahalleleri, işyerlerini, Osmanlı hükümetinin müdahale etmekteki başarısızlığını, sıradan insanların faillere dönüşümlerini anlatıyor. Bedross Der Matossian, bu katliamlara giden yoldaki tüm etkenleri incelerken, katliamlar sonrası insani yardımları ve müdahaleleri, yargılamaları da es geçmiyor. Çok sayıda kaynaktan yararlanarak yazdığı bu eseriyle tarih çalışmalarında kendisine pek yer bulamamış Adana katliamlarını gün yüzüne çıkarıyor, yaşanan trajedinin neden ve sonuçlarını titizlikle masaya yatırıyor.

Man has no legitimate right to make laws to rule over others... The only law that matters is the laws of God, aka "common law". Any law other than those given by God or nothing more than words on paper written by a corrupt parasite class known as politicians should be ignored.

I generally think this as well. But then I also think about the large variety of human societies that we have today, and how I would rather live in some (say, France) rather than others (say, the US, or those with no women's rights). If everyone could live everywhere without having to accept the laws of each country because there was no concept of country - wouldn't it end up being about "might makes right"? Or maybe we can have no borders, no countries, and still somehow all agree to live in harmony, between each other and also between humans and nature? 🤔
I think about it like, OK, arbitrary line in the dirt, on this side my rules my taxes, on that side your rules your taxes. If you were the controlling type, who wouldn't want more people on their side of the line? There should be billboards.
this is what many indigenous peoples always found difficult to believe, that, just by claiming a place where you happen to be, you reduce the rights of anyone who steps there in future.

I had to print a return label from Amazon; it's usually right in th email they send after beginning a return. This time it was a redirect, back to Amazon.
I printed it using a laptop, and a PC, just because there were a few glitches.
BUT, as soon as I did, both keyboard and mouse would not function on both my laptop nad PC. It took a few hours of sheer panic (were we hacked?) and a deep dive investigation, but we finally discovered that the settings on the mice were reversed.
@Bleukitty No...but the whole experience was just so odd...Amazon usually just sends the return label in an email, and you download it. And this was on both devices...immediately after printing.

You may hear the phrase “electronic music” and think of superstar dubstep DJs in funny helmets at beachside celebrity parties.
@Emmanuel Florac I never realized just how old electronic music really was until I read this article. I actually like a lot of electronic music but I do so secretly, as I subconsciously don't consider it to be real music. It is a bias that may need some adjustment.

RT @yanisvaroufakis "May constitute a war crime"? May? What will it take for the Western Press to get off the damned fence? Israel's war criminality has been established in fact long, long ago
That's UN convention. When their experts or spokesperson says "This may be a war crime." it means "This is s clear-cut war crime, but I personally am not a jurist." If they meant "may" it would be "raises concerns about the respect for IHL" or something along those lines. Bottom line is, that statement at this stage is diplo-speak for "Yes, it's a fucking war crime"
@bifouba I, personally, do have a law degree - and I do take exception at this "convention". I damn care, but I cannot stand this pussyfooting any more. @remixtures
@GRA3432 I fully agree with you, personally. It's too cautious in ⋅effect⋅, But in terms of inferring the ⋅intention⋅ behind the statement, if that is said by someone within the system it's more likely they are at least trying (within their framework) to sound as harsh as they can get away with, rather than trying to weasel out.
@bifouba You are right, ok - let's say that my patience is wearing very, very thin these days. It's not just the pictures in the Media - I just spent several hours in company of a 70-somthing lady whose sisters of the same age group are still in Gaza with their families - as far as they are still alive. @remixtures

Today the order banning #PalestineAction as "terrorists" came into effect. But they are not terrorists. They are protesters trying to stop a genocide. This is a "first they came for ..." situation. Unless we stand in solidarity against this assault on our freedom, they will pick us off one by one.
"American contractors guarding aid distribution sites in Gaza are using live ammunition and stun grenades as hungry Palestinians scramble for food, according to accounts and videos obtained by The Associated Press.
Two U.S. contractors, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity because they were revealing their employers’ internal operations, said they were coming forward because they were disturbed by what they considered dangerous and irresponsible practices. They said the security staff hired were often unqualified, unvetted, heavily armed and seemed to have an open license to do whatever they wished.
They said their colleagues regularly lobbed stun grenades and pepper spray in the direction of the Palestinians. One contractor said bullets were fired in all directions — in the air, into the ground and at times toward the Palestinians, recalling at least one instance where he thought someone had been hit.
“There are innocent people being hurt. Badly. Needlessly,” the contractor said."
The attempts by law enforcement & governments to subvert end-to-end encryption are ongoing.
