Linux is suddenly booming in Europe. April 2024, Linux had a small 2.84% slice of the desktop market in Europe. Fast forward to July 2025, and that share has jumped to an impressive 5.21%. That’s a massive 83.45% increase in just over a year.

Livestream of Black Sabbath and Ozzy farewell concert. "Paranoid, circa 1970"
🎶 Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours;
Think of all the great things we would do.
Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way. 🎶 "Mary Hopkins, circa 1968)

« Comparer Jean-Noël #Barrot à un Henry Kissinger ou à un Sergueï #Lavrov, c’est cruel, tant l’un incarne ce qu’est un diplomate et l’autre ce que la #diplomatie ne devrait jamais devenir. Kissinger, disparu en 2023, restera comme un maître des rapports de force, un homme qui savait lire le monde, anticiper ses soubresauts, et bâtir des équilibres durables avec un mélange d’intelligence froide et de cynisme assumé. Lavrov, que l’on peut aimer ou détester, c’est la constance, la redoutable efficacité du professionnel qui domine la scène internationale depuis plus de vingt ans, sans jamais perdre son sang-froid ni son cap.Et puis il y a Jean-Noël Barrot : l’anti-diplomate par excellence. Agressif là où il faudrait être subtil, agité là où il faudrait peser ses mots, il aligne des déclarations qui sont systématiquement l’exact inverse de la réalité, comme si sa boussole était déréglée au point de toujours pointer le mauvais nord. Peut-être est-ce cela qui l’exaspère tant : de sentir confusément qu’il parle pour ne rien dire, qu’il gesticule sans rien obtenir — alors les yeux s’exorbitent, les traits se contractent, la nervosité éclate au grand jour. Il ne négocie pas : il tempête, il ne convainc pas : il agresse. Le tout au service d’une diplomatie française devenue transparente, voire ridicule, sur les grandes scènes internationales.
Quant à Mark #Rutte, secrétaire général de l’ #OTAN, ses sarcasmes sur la longévité de Lavrov trahissent surtout une gêne : il sait bien qu’en face de lui, Lavrov a des décennies de métier que lui-même ou ses alliés ne pourront jamais rattraper. Et Kaja #Kallas, à la tête de la diplomatie européenne, complète ce tableau d’ #amateurisme : des postures binaires, des slogans vides, aucune profondeur, aucune vision, rien que des leçons creuses données au monde, dont personne ne se soucie.
Voici la diplomatie occidentale : des figurants ignares et nerveux. »

The team behind Trump's World Liberty Financial project has proposed lifting restrictions on the WLFI "governance token" to make it tradeable. I predicted shortly after its launch that if Trump succeeded in gutting the SEC, he would do this.
This would lift the substantial restrictions on the token (non-US or accredited investors only, locked tokens with no secondary sales) that were aimed at sidestepping attention from the previous SEC, and could be enormously lucrative for Trump.

We built a thing! I spent the past few months building Trusted Signatures, a SaaS product that makes it easy to provide durable signed PDFs at scale.
This makes it easy to prove documents came from who they’re supposed to, unaltered.
Perfect for building secure workflows for finance, legal, or compliance — or if you’ve ever wanted a programmable signature API you can actually trust.

Yeah, DocuSign has a bunch of challenges, sender authentication being one. Another is that after everyone has signed, it signs the PDF with its own certificate, which can tell you if the document was modified but not where it came from.
We're looking at solving problems like this as a supply chain issue; it turns out there's a lot of fraud involving doctored PDFs.
For example, if someone sends you an invoice against a valid PO, but they've put in their own account for payment, you're out the money. But if you only accept signed PDFs, you (or better: your systems) can immediately validate that the invoice actually came from the correct source, unmodified.
Another common problem area is real estate fraud: documents pour in from all over the place (appraisals, inspections, bank statements) and people try to put forward fraudulent ones all the time. If they were signed, then the risk of fraud drops precipitously, and even if there is fraud, the senders cannot repudiate the documents and are still on the hook.
We make it so cheap (our price per PDF quickly approach $0.001 per PDF) that there's no reason not to sign everything your organization sends, and to require the companies sending you PDFs to sign theirs.
Avoiding a single loss or lawsuit will cover the cost a thousandfold.

"‘Why don’t they stay in France?’
Most refugees head for a country where there is some link of language, family or community. North Africans stay in France because they have some French. Refugees from what were once UK colonies often have English as a second language."

Surely the language by itself is at best one factor and not a particularly strong one? Approximately zero refugees from the global south have any pre-existing knowledge of German, Hungarian, or Swedish, etc.

The second researcher reaches out again to the BCA.July 2nd 2025: Leak is closed. BCA answers that they were unable to get the attention of the law form via phone and email, so they send officers on site to convey the seriousness of the leak. They also say that the law firm had asked their IT department and it denied any possibility of a leak.
This is not a complete failure analysis. These are only my own observations. Looking
Failures:The chosen IT department was unable to adhere even to the most basic levels of data security.Even when asked by the customer, the IT department denied the possibility of a leak.The law firm has no proper process to deal with external IT security alerts.Lack of understanding concerning the responsibility on the side of the law firrm. Outsourcing only delegates the work but not the legal obligations.
It can be safely assumed (due to duration and easiness to discover) that all data on those server is now in the hands of inttelligence services (e.g. Russia, China) and cyber criminals with little care about the privacy of US citizens. Especially for people looking for material to blackmail people, this leak was a gold mine.
Thanks to @JayeLTee and @PogoWasRight@infosec.exchange for doing most of the work. A description of the incident from the viewpoint of Dissent can be found databreaches.net/2025/07/04/no…
Furthermore I wish to praise the work of Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.
Also thanks to @TonyYarusso and @bkoehn@hachyderm.io for assisting us in getting the necessary attention.
It is clearly necessary that we have at least one public contact in each country that investigates and closes data leaks reported to them. The effort to close even the worst leaks is unbearable and currently rests on the shoulders of security researchers and their supporting environment.
Time spent on this leak from my side (without the time for this report) is 4+ hours. My best estimate on the effort of all people involved closing this leak would be in the hundreds of hours. The amount of time spent by the person responsible for the leaking system on security issues: None.

Mustafa Kemal ve Aleviler
Mustafa Kemal “kurtuluş savaşı” için çıkmış olduğu Batı Ermenistan destek turlarının, Amasya, Erzurum ve Sivas kongrelerinden sonra,
22 aralık 1919 tarihinde, Alevi toplumunun da desteğini almak üzere, Hünkar Bektaş-i Veli dergahını ziyaret ederek destek ister.
O dönemde dergahın Piri Postnişini (Şeyh)olan Ahmet Cemalettin Çelebi ile görüşmeler gerçekleştirir. Bazı vaatlerde bulunur, derki; işgalcileri bir yurttan kovalım, sonrasında herkesin özgürlüklerini yaşayabileceği bir devlet kurma niyetindeyim. Hatta bu devletin adının Anadolu Cumhuriyeti olacağını dillendirir.
Bu vaat ve temennileri olumlu karşılayan A.Cemalettin Çelebi, “paşam yanındayız bu mücadelen de” der ve içinden geçtikleri sürecin zorluklarla dolu olduğunu bildiğinden, ilk etapta, dergahın birikmiş tasarruflarından, iki bin Reşat altını
M. Kemale takdim ettiği söylenir.
Ama M.Kemal’in istekleri sadece maddi boyutla sınırlı değildir elbette.
A.Cemalettin Çelebiye, “sizin Alevi toplumu üzerinde sevilen sayılan biri olduğunuzu biliyorum, onun için asker toplama noktasında sizlerden destek istiyorum”der. A.Cemalettin Çelebi bu noktadaki isteğini de ikiletmez ve kalkar bizatihi kendisi Sivas, Tokat, Amasya, Çorum gibi illeri ziyaret ederek süreci ve verilen vaatleri anlatarak eli silah tutan herkesin askere katılması için çalışır.
Bu çalışma, gerçekten halktan ciddi bir kabul ve desteğe dönüşür ve Alevi toplumu her alanda gelişen direniş hareketlerine ciddi katılım sağlarlar.
Mustafa Kemal bu vaatlerini Erzurum’da, Amasya’da ve Sivas kongrelerinde, Kürt aşiret liderlerine de sunmaktadır, örneğin Sivas Koçgiri aşiret liderlerinden görüştüğü Alişan beye de iletmiştir, gelin bu süreci destekleyin kurulacak olan Cumhuriyette Kürt halkının bütün demokratik haklarının anayasal güvenceye kavuşturulacağının sözlerini vaadetmiştir. Hatta bu vesileyle Alişan beye vekillik teklifinde bulunmuştur.
Dolayısıyla Koçgiri toplumu bu vaatleri esas alarak her türlü desteği sunmuştur M.Kemale. Büyüklerimizden de benzeri olayları dinlemiştik, özellikle Ahmet Cemalettin Çelebi’nin Koçgiri gezisinden sonra, askeri müfrezeye, ciddi anlamda bir katılımın olduğu söylenirdi.
Bu desteklenen süreç, 1921 yılı birinci meclis sürecine kadar devam eder. Güneydoğu coğrafyasından gelen vekiller, Kürdistan mebusu olarak kayda geçmişlerdir. Alevi toplumunun yoğun yaşadığı bölgenin vekillerine, Dersim mebusu olarak tanımlanır ve kabul görürler. Bütün bu tanım ve kabullerin, ülke gerçekliği bakımından çok değerli olduğunu da belirtmekte fayda var.
Ama her nedense Mustafa Kemal bu vaad ettiği hiçbir sözünün arkasında durmamaktadır maalesef, çünkü asıl niyetinin bu olmadığı ve kurmak istediği şeyin tek etnik kimliğe dayalı Türkçü devletin amacına ulaşmak için bütün bu süreçleri taktiksel olarak kullandığı bir bir ortaya çıkmaya başlamıştır aslında.
Dolayısıyla Mustafa Kemal harekâtı başarıyla sonuçlandıktan sonra devletin resmi dini “İslam’dır” der. Sünni islam anlayışını devletin resmi dini olarak ilan eder. Alevilere verdiği hiçbir sözün arkasında durmaz. Aleviliği yok sayar. Aleviler rahatsız olurlar. Mustafa Kemal’e isteklerini bir kez de yazılı olarak telgraflarla bildirirler. Mustafa Kemal ise, bu verdiği sözlerin hiçbirinin yaşanmamışcasına, Sünni islam dini dışında, hiçbir inancı tanımadığını ilan eder.
Bu telgraf ve yazışmalara rağmen, Ankara’dan herhangi bir yanıt alamayan Koçgiri aşireti liderleri, 1921 yılında, M.Kemalin verdiği hiçbir sözün arkasında durmadığını ve kendilerini kandırdıklarını, dolayısıyla Mustafa Kemal’in bir Kürt ve Alevi düşmanı olduğunu deklare ederler. Bunun üzerine, 1921 yılında Alişer, Zarife, Haydar bey ve Alişan bey öncülüğünde, Mustafa Kemal’in kurmak istediği ırkçı faşist sisteme karşı direniş ve isyan başlatılır.
Koçgiri halkının, demokratik taleplerine bir çözüm üretmek yerine, merkez ordusu ve topal Osman çetesini donatarak bölgeye gönderen M.Kemal, en kanlı biçimde isyanı bastırır, binlerce insanın katlettirir ve geride kalanların, neredeyse yaşayabilecekleri bir alan bırakmamak üzere bölgeyi talan ettirir. Ayrıca katliamda sağ yakaladıkları bütün aşiret liderlerini sürgüne gönderir.
Mustafa Kemal Koçgiri Katliamından sonra, kafasında tasarlamış olduğu Türk-İslam sentezine dayalı politik tercihinin hayat bulabilmesi için, Alevilerin asimile edilmesi gerektiğini söyler, ve bunun sistematik olarak yürütülmesini sağlar.
Cumhuriyetin ilanının üzerinden, 1924 yılında tek din ve onun bir tek mezhebi olan Sünni İslam esaslarına dayalı olarak diyanet işleri başkanlığını kurar.
Bununla da yetinmez, 30 Kasım 1925 yılında Tekke ve Zaviye kanunu adı altında Alevi inancını tamamıyla yasaklar. Alevi inancını yaşatan ne kadar dergah varsa, başta Hünkar Bektaşi Veli dergahı olmak üzere, bütün dergahları kapatır ve Ana, Mürşit, Pir, Reybér gibi inanç temsiliyeti olan makam ve şahsiyetleri, üfürükçü ilan ettirerek, terör suçları kapsamına alır. Böylelikle Alevi inancını bu kanunla birlikte, artık devletçe mücadele edilmesi gereken bir inanç haline dönüştürür.
Hatta Alevî toplumunun, bir daha geçmişiyle bir bağ kurmaması için, kimliklerine zorla İslam ibaresini yazdırarak, hafızalarını dumura uğratır.
Yaşanan onca olaylardan sonra, Alevi toplumu, artık Mustafa Kemal’e kesinlikle güvenmemektedir.
Dersim halkı, inançlarının yasaklanmasını içlerine sindirmezler. Koçgiri katliamından sonra sıranın kendilerine geleceğini iyi bildiklerinden, inançlarına her zamankinden daha sıkı sıkıya bağlılığı savunurlar.
Bütün bu süreçleri sistematik olarak yürüten Mustafa Kemal, artık planının ikinci aşamasına geçer. 1935 yılında özel Tunceli Kanununu çıkarır. Bu kanunla birlikte Dersim’in adını Tunceli olarak bilinçli bir şekilde değiştirir.
Sonrasında Tunceli, Erzincan ve Bingöl’ü içeren, Elazığ merkezli, savaş konseptli bir Genel Valilik kurdurur (6 Ocak 1936). Bu genel valiliğin başına, Dersim Valisi ve Kumandanı sıfatıyla, Abdullah Alpdoğan’ı getirir. Abdullah Alpdoğan Koçgiri katliamında görev yapan onca sivil insanı katleden merkez ordusunun komutanı Sakallı Nurettin Paşa’nın damadıdır aynı zamanda.
Yani Kürt ve Alevi katletme konusunda hayli deneyimli bir ailedir.
Sonrasında bilinen tarihi gerçeklikler yaşanır. Sinsi planlarla, sanki DERSİM’de bir isyan varmış gibi uydurma bir tezle, asıl dertlerinin o coğrafyayı insansızlaştırmak olduğunu, hemde hedef haline getirdikleri Alevi inancının kökünü kazımak olduğunu, tarihi gerçeklikler bize teyid etmiş durumdadır.
Soykırımdan sağ kalan insanları ise, bir daha kültürel kimlikleriyle buluşmamaları için, yada daha rahat asimile olmaları için, deyim yerindeyse çil yavrusu gibi ülkenin çeşitli bölgelerine sürgüne gönderilirler.
Mustafa Kemal’in Alevi toplumuna yaptığı bunca zulüm ve soykırıma rağmen, günümüzde halen M.Kemalin kurduğu Cumhuriyeti laik bir cumhuriyetmiş gibi savunan büyük bir Alevi kitlesi var. Şimdi bu kafası karışık Aleviler’e şu soruyu sormak lazım.? Ya yukarıda anlattığımız bunca tarihi yaşanmışlıklar yalan, yada bilgi belge ve tarihi gerçekliğe dayanmayan, sizin bu söyledikleriniz.?
Peki bizdeki laiklik anlayışının bu çerçeveyle her hangi bir alakası varmı sizce.? Onun için Mustafa Kemal’in laiklik diye yutturmak istediği şey, bütün farklı inançların yasaklandığı, bir tek Sünni İslam dininin devletin resmi dinine dönüştürüldüğü yalanının adıdır tek kelimeyle.?
Arada yüz yıl geçmesine rağmen, Kemalist çizgide siyaset yapan politikacılar arasında bir tekinin bile, biz bu Koçgirde, Dersim’de on binlerce Aleviyi neden öldürdük, bu tarihi bir hataydı diyen ve bu anlamda Alevi toplumundan özür dileyen bir politikacıya rastladınız mı hiç.?
Dolayısıyla Alevilerle Kemalistlerin aynı potada yan yana siyaset yapıyor olmaları bile doğanın kuralına aykırı bir durumdur, çünkü Kemalizm çok kültürlülüğü, çok dilliliği, ve çok inançlılığı reddeden faşist bir zihniyete sahiptir.

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

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.

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.

-- my mom listened to all their records while I was growing up in the 70s. I especially remember this Christmas album. I really do love her voice.
It's such a tragedy that the perfectionism which drove her ended up being more of a curse than a blessing. 😔
