Vendredi, le New York Times a publié un rapport établissant de manière concluante qu'Israël était pleinement informé, en détail, des plans d'attaque du Hamas contre sa frontière qui ont été exécutés le 7 octobre. Ces révélations montrent clairement que les responsables israéliens, sachant parfaitement où et comment le Hamas allait frapper, ont pris la décision délibérée de se retirer afin de faciliter l'attaque.
Ces révélations signifient que le gouvernement israélien a permis et encouragé le meurtre de ses propres citoyens et qu'il est responsable des morts survenues ce jour-là. Cette conspiration criminelle visait à établir un prétexte pour un génocide planifié de longue date contre la population de Gaza. En outre, il est impossible de croire que les États-Unis n'étaient pas informés des plans du Hamas, dans des conditions où non seulement les services de renseignement israéliens, mais aussi l'Égypte, avaient été prévenus à l'avance de l'attaque. Tout indique qu'il s'agit d'un complot impliquant Israël, l'administration Biden et probablement les services de renseignement britanniques et européens. Le Times a publié ce rapport lundi, alors qu'Israël lançait une nouvelle vague d'attaques sur Gaza, au cours d'une visite d'Antony Blinken. La présence du secrétaire d'État américain avait pour but non seulement d'exprimer le soutien des États-Unis à cette nouvelle attaque, mais aussi de gérer la réponse à la révélation de ce complot. Le Times a rapporté que :
Le document d'environ 40 pages, auquel les autorités israéliennes ont donné le nom de code « Mur de Jéricho », décrit, point par point, exactement le type d'invasion dévastatrice qui a entraîné la mort d'environ 1 200 personnes. Le document obtenu par les services de renseignement israéliens « décrit méticuleusement la méthode d'attaque, reflétant les événements réels », rapporte le Times. « Il décrit un assaut intense visant à percer les fortifications de la bande de Gaza, à s'emparer des villes israéliennes et à cibler les principales bases militaires. Ce plan a été mis en œuvre avec une précision alarmante, impliquant une utilisation coordonnée de roquettes, de drones et de forces terrestres ».
Le Times rapporte :
Le Hamas a suivi le plan avec une précision choquante. Le document prévoyait un barrage de roquettes au début de l'attaque, des drones pour neutraliser les caméras de sécurité et les mitrailleuses automatiques le long de la frontière, et des hommes armés pour se déverser en masse en Israël en parapente, à moto et à pied - tout cela s'est produit le 7 octobre.
En outre, selon le Times, les responsables de l'armée et des services de renseignement israéliens savaient que le Hamas avait effectué une mission d'entraînement exhaustive d'une journée pour mettre en œuvre le plan dans les moindres détails, trois mois seulement avant l'attaque. Le Times précise :
L'entraînement comprenait un exercice d'abattage d'avions israéliens et la prise de contrôle d'un kibboutz et d'une base d'entraînement militaire, tuant tous les cadets. Au cours de l'exercice, les combattants du Hamas ont utilisé la même phrase du Coran qui figurait en tête du plan d'attaque du mur de Jéricho.
Tout en reconnaissant qu'Israël était pleinement informé des plans du Hamas, le Times cherche à présenter ces révélations comme un alibi, affirmant, sans aucune justification, que les responsables israéliens ont simplement commis une erreur. Le Times écrit :
À la base de tous ces échecs, il y avait une croyance unique, fatalement inexacte, selon laquelle le Hamas n'avait pas la capacité d'attaquer et n'oserait pas le faire. Cette croyance était tellement ancrée dans le gouvernement israélien, selon les responsables, qu'ils ont ignoré les preuves de plus en plus nombreuses du contraire... L'incapacité à relier les points fait écho à un autre échec analytique survenu il y a plus de vingt ans, lorsque les autorités américaines disposaient également de multiples indications selon lesquelles le groupe terroriste Al-Qaïda préparait un assaut.
Non, le retrait israélien du 7 octobre n'était pas un échec à « relier les points », parce qu'il n'y avait pas de points à relier. Les forces de renseignement israéliennes avaient obtenu le plan opérationnel complet de l'attaque du 7 octobre, puis avaient assisté à un exercice d'entraînement majeur et de haut niveau du Hamas pour ce plan. Ils savaient exactement ce qui était prévu et ont décidé de laisser faire.
Le Times écrit : « Les responsables de l'armée et des services de renseignement israéliens ont rejeté le plan comme étant ambitieux, considérant qu'il était trop difficile pour le Hamas de le mettre en œuvre ». Il ajoute : « On ne sait pas si le Premier ministre Benjamin #Netanyahu ou d'autres hauts responsables politiques ont vu le document ».
Cette présentation est absurde. Il est impossible de croire que des informations de cette nature puissent entrer en possession des agences de renseignement sans provoquer l'analyse la plus intense. L'idée qu'après le 11 septembre, des plans de si haut niveau aient été cachés au premier ministre n'est pas crédible.
Un tel document proviendrait d'une source au plus haut niveau du Hamas. Une fois ces informations précieuses obtenues, il aurait été vital de prendre des mesures pour protéger la source, y compris des contre-mesures pour faire croire au Hamas qu'Israël n'était pas en possession de ces informations. La mise en veilleuse aurait pu être un moyen d'envoyer un signal indiquant que le plan du Hamas n'avait pas été dévoilé.
En fin de compte, le choix a été fait de permettre à l'opération du Hamas de se poursuivre, afin de fournir à Israël un prétexte pour une attaque militaire massive, planifiée de longue date, sur Gaza. Seul Netanyahou pouvait prendre une telle décision. Les États-Unis, quant à eux, ont immédiatement envoyé une force militaire massive dans la région, annonçant le déploiement de leur plus grand porte-avions et navire d'escorte dans la région dans les 24 heures qui ont suivi l'attaque.
L'affirmation du Times selon laquelle le retrait d'Israël était un « échec des services de renseignement » n'a aucun sens, car il s'agit d'un #mensonge du début à la fin. Non, les événements du 7 octobre n'ont pas été un échec en matière de renseignement : Israël a remarquablement réussi à prédire exactement l'opération militaire du Hamas. Au lieu d'agir sur la base de ces renseignements, Israël a orchestré un retrait des troupes et de la collecte de renseignements au moment précis où l'attaque a eu lieu.
Quatre jours après l'attaque du 7 octobre, le journaliste chevronné Seymour #Hersh a rapporté que dans les jours précédant l'attaque, « les autorités militaires israéliennes locales, avec l'approbation de Netanyahou, ont ordonné à deux des trois bataillons de l'armée, comptant chacun environ 800 soldats, qui protégeaient la frontière avec Gaza, de se concentrer sur le festival de Souccot » qui se déroulait près de la Cisjordanie.
Hersh cite une source qui lui a dit :
« Il ne restait plus que huit cents soldats ... pour garder la frontière de 51 kilomètres entre la bande de Gaza et le sud d'Israël. Cela signifie que les citoyens israéliens du sud ont été laissés sans présence militaire israélienne pendant dix à douze heures. Ils ont été laissés à eux-mêmes ».
Cette mise en veilleuse n'a pas seulement rendu la frontière vulnérable aux attaques, elle a également créé les conditions dans lesquelles les forces militaires ont dû être transférées pour intercepter les attaquants du Hamas dans les zones civiles, créant ainsi les conditions dans lesquelles les chars et les hélicoptères israéliens ont tiré sans discernement sur les zones civiles, alourdissant encore le bilan des victimes israéliennes.
En plus de la mise en veille militaire, Israël a pris la décision de mettre son unité de renseignement 8200 hors service le week-end, ce qui signifie que l'unité de renseignement qui avait détecté l'exercice d'entraînement trois mois auparavant n'était pas en service au moment de l'attaque du samedi 7 octobre.
La révélation de la connaissance préalable de l'attaque par Israël met également à nu les médias et l'establishment politique américains, qui ont pleinement adhéré aux affirmations d'Israël selon lesquelles il a été pris par surprise par l'attaque, et que les événements du 7 octobre justifient le génocide qui se déroule actuellement dans la bande de Gaza.
Ces révélations montrent que le #génocide de #Gaza est une conspiration criminelle du régime de #Netanyahou et de ses soutiens impérialistes, dont les victimes ne sont pas seulement les 20 000 Palestiniens massacrés, mais la population israélienne elle-même.
Hélas l'article n'est plus en ligne (Il a été retiré et non contesté, le protocole étant confirmé par des généraux haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-0…)
L'article d'origine racontait l'histoire d'une pilote d'hélicoptère qui a reçu l'ordre de tirer avec des missiles hellfire (au phosphore) sur les voitures civiles qui fuyaient le festival sans pouvoir vérifier si elles étaient conduites par des civils ou non (en réalité on sait que l'essentiel était civile) Elle a du même retourner à la base pour recharger d'autres missiles
Et bien sûr, il n'y avait pas qu'un seul hélicoptère :
Sur les 600 morts du festival, on peut estimer qu'à peu près tous sont morts en raison de cette directive (ce qui explique ces images horribles d'un pied calciné sur un accélérateur et le changement dans le nombre de morts du festival qui ont été comptabilisé comme palestiniens puis qui sont devenus Israéliens au fils des disparitions annoncées)

"Méthodes de guerre" ??, explication bidon. Des "méthodes" de guerre, ce ne sont pas des "méthodes" pour assassiner, génocider, affamer et exiler ! Ceux qui ne suivent pas un minimum les règles officielles de la guerre entre humains n'ont pas à être exemptés de quoi que ce soit, ni leur comportement justifié.
La création du Hamas pourrait en être une israélienne…
Ce n'est pas "pourrait", il faudrait se renseigner.....
J’ai arrêté d’être toujours poli et tu dois ëtre très froissable très vite (et ce n’est pas mon problème). Faire passer (inconsciemment ou pas) ce que font les tarés suprémacistes sionistes depuis 80 ans, et particulièrement maintenant, pour des “méthodes de guerre”… ça me hérisse le poil et ne m’encourage pas à prendre des pincettes de politesse avec toi, ou avec d’autres.;)
Mettre en œuvre un génocide n'est pas une "méthode de guerre" acceptable pour moi, et je doute que cela le soit pour la plupart des militaires du monde.
Parce que « les règles officielles de la guerre entre humains « sont parfaitement acceptables, elles. Tuer, oui, mais dans les règles. Un ado assassins est un monstre, un chef de guerre massacreur est tout à fait respectable tant qu’il respecte les règles du meurtre.
Tiens, le mec qui efface mes commentaires sans rien dire vient ici poser ses conneries (que je n'ai jamais exprimées, il invente n'importe quoi). Et à part ça bienvenue dans la réalité humaine historique, oui, il y a différentes façon de faire la guerre! Il y a différentes façons de couper des arbres aussi, et de tuer des animaux. Bien entendu intrus, je te déconseille de répondre ici, je t'effacerais quand ça me chante. Je l'annonce clairement, moi 😀
@L'intrus n’a pourtant pas totalement tord : est il moralement meilleur de tuer parce qu’on est un militaire aguéri aux connaissances militaires, ou parce qu’on est un civil qui utilise ce qu’il a sous la main ?
Dans tous les cas, ne faudrait il pas privilégier un autre “moyen d’expression” ?
@Part_of You je n'ai jamais effacé les commentaires de qui que ce soit. Mais il se trouve que lorsqu'on est bloqué, nos commentaires ne sont pas publiés. Je me suis fait avoir aussi. Tu te fais chier à écrire un long com et il disparait quand tu veux le publier. Ceci dit, je ne pense pas que je t'aurai bloqué si tu ne l'avais pas fait initialement. Je te débloque? Tu devrais pouvoir commenter.
Et pour reprendre la question de @pal : est il moralement meilleur de tuer parce qu’on est un equarisseur ou un charcutier-traiteur plutôt qu'un chasseur ou un massacreur de chatons ?
conneries (que je n’ai jamais exprimées
Et juste après :
il y a différentes façon de faire la guerre! Il y a différentes façons de couper des arbres aussi, et de tuer des animaux.
Des bonnes et des mauvaises, donc. J'avais bien compris. Différente façons de violer aussi ?
Il a exprimé des inférences qu'il invente, totalement délirantes de mon point de vue par rapport à ce que j'ai exprimé. Oh les gars, on est pas chez les bisounours, je ne cause pas du fait que tuer c'est bien/mal ou moral/immoral, je ne cause pas d'un idéal, la déviation vers vos questions d'idéalistes quand votre gouvernement et toute votre société soutient, et protège activement des massacres, génocides et la famine, je vous laisse cette masturbation psychologique. Je préfère la réalité. Les humains ne sont pas près d'arrêter de s'entretuer quoi que vous en pensiez, je fais avec et j'analyse dans ce cadre. Pal, tu ne m'as pas compris, ta première question n'a pas de sens pour moi, il y a des choses qu'un militaire qui a un minimum d'honneur et de droiture ne fait pas (et oui bien sur que ce sont nos assassins officiels!), mais ça peut être un civil aussi, il n'y a pas de différence au final, je cause des manières de faire ! C'est quand même pas trop difficile à comprendre qu'il y a différents moyens de faire dans un conflit. Si j'ai un conflit avec des voisins, je peux aller essayer de discuter, je peux les considérer comme des sous-humains et moi un humain sacré, je peux aller en justice, je peux acheter une arme et les tuer, je peux me procurer du poison et empoisonner leur eau, je peux foutre le feu ni vu ni connu, je peux leur voler leurs terres car je suis plus fort qu'eux, ou monter tout le quartier contre eux en mentant comme un rat mort, etc, etc, etc. Et non, tout ne se vaut pas. Il faut des tarés machiavéliques comme un macron ou un netanyahu, soutenus par les plus riches et dirigeants du monde, pour qu'on en arrive là ou l'on est....machiavéliques car ils sont près à tous les mensonges et manigances pour arriver à leur fin. Macron a au moins eu l’honnêteté, au début, de ne pas cacher qu'il est un grand fan de Machiavel.....cela voulait déjà tout dire et annoncer la suite
Et oui, il y a différentes façon de violer....vas en causer avec des sionistes par exemple, c'est d'actualité, ils vont t'expliquer comment ils le font dans leur prison....
Et nous sommes 3 à avoir le symptôme de Stockholm avec Macron; à croire la tv et à relativiser l’innommable? Tu vois quand des gens s'avèrent être de ton côté c'est un peu con de leur faire la leçon...
un militaire qui a un minimum d’honneur et de droiture
Elle est très bonne
Sauf que "différentes façon de tuer" et "différents moyens de faire dans un conflit" n'est pas tout à fait le même propos… Toi non plus ne comprends pas, on dirait. Personne ne juge le fait de tuer sous un angle moral, ici (à part toi - "acceptable" ou non). Au contraire : tuer, c'est tuer (et je ne dis pas que c'est mal).
Tu vois quand des gens s’avèrent être de ton côté c’est un peu con de leur faire la leçon…
A la base, j'ai voulu recadrer ton très flou et neutre « Tout cela est des méthodes de guerre…» et préciser que toutes les méthodes et façons de faire ne se valent pas.
Et justement, en fait, le viol est un bon exemple d’un interdit civil ou militaire. Il y a ceux qui le font, et ceux qui ne le font pas.
?? Parce qu'il existe aussi des règles officielles pour le viol ? C'est "acceptable" de la part d'un militaire parce qu'il viole avec "un minimum d’honneur et de droiture" ?
A ma connaissance il n'y a aucune règle à la guerre; si tu veux faire appel aux extraterrestres pour gagner ou dynamiter la tétine d'un nourrisson ou je ne sais quoi de sournois et machiavélique et c'est ce que font les israéliens... Nous avons perdu la guerre depuis l'explosion des tatoos au Liban...
?? Parce qu’il existe aussi des règles officielles pour le viol ? C’est “acceptable” de la part d’un militaire parce qu’il viole avec “un minimum d’honneur et de droiture” ?
L'art de ne RIEN comprendre....j'abandonne avec toi.
Ahaha, trolleur de merde que tu es intrus. Hé Alexandre, tu peux aussi découvrir ce qu'est la Convention de Genève, si t'as pas de militaire sous la main.
heureusement que tu es là pour élever le débat, avec des arguments fondés et raisonnables… Où est le trollisme (la trollerie ?) quand je ne fais que souligner que tu défends et te sers d'argument d'assassins professionnels ?
Et sinon, j'aimerai beaucoup que tu nous expliques les différentes façon de violer, n'ayant pas de sioniste (quel rapport ?!) sous la main…
J'avais commencé à expliquer les différents types de viols mais finalement j'efface et je ne vais pas rentrer dans ton jeu de con interminable. Je me fous de ce que tu aimerais beaucoup. Ne répond plus ici l'intrus, je t'effacerais. Le thème auquel j'ai répondu était sur la façon de faire la guerre, point. Vous avez remarqué que toutes les armées n'ont pas les mêmes façons de faire, n'ont pas les mêmes façons de traiter les civils et les prisonniers de guerre ? Vous avez remarqué que toutes les forces armées n'ont pas les mêmes méthodes, ne pratiquent pas toutes le génocide, par exemple? Ou les différences vous échappent ? Alors je ne peux plus rien pour vous. En tout cas c'était ça mon point principal. Les inférences trollesques totalement délirantes d'un intrus n'ont rien à voir avec le thème.
Pauvre intrus, j'ai effacé ton message, tu étais prévenu, je suis dans mon salon, et je te vires, point. Je n'accueille pas tout le monde chez moi. C'est la réalité, pas des idéaux de bisounours soi-disant nihiliste. Au fait ducon, je suis contre les génocides et le viol hein, et accessoirement pour clarifier jamais personne n'a réussi à me faire enfiler un uniforme. Toi aussi vas lire la Convention de Genève.
Moi je voudrais clarifier qq chose pour terminer: quand nous sommes tous pour la Palestine, pour la paix en Ukraine, contre le capitalisme, contre le centrisme, la droite et l'extrême-droite, contre le racisme, un peu anars ou cocos, écolos, cools, gentils, fêtard, punk, hippie, baba-cool, etc. POURQUOI SE PRENDRE LA TÊTE ENTRE NOUS SUR DES POINT DE DÉTAIL DE VOCABULAIRE ET DE STRATÉGIE ETC.? SOYONS UNIS...
There's a lot of headphone monitor talk on the timeline today which has reminded me that my SRH440s are on their way out and I am weirdly sad about it. I mean, they still sound good, they're just literally falling apart at this point.
someone on the feeds a few days ago used yarn to replace their ear pads. but if you're not looking for a project, you can usually find replacement pads for any popular model (i'm sure the SRH440 is no exception). and cables can also be soldered. if thats the problem, i'll gladly do it for you.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

Why don't they cut power and water to the facility? What am I missing here? Why wouldn't that work? Sure. They can bring in their own generators. But what are they going to do about water and sewage? Waste collection?
Based on how people are treated by that bunch, I suspect it wouldn’t work because it wouldn’t change a thing, other than now the prisoners have no water or waste collection.
Oh they do. That's pretty concrete. A Fire Marshal can order the evacuation of any building (even order that it be razed to the ground) if it's unsafe or violates Fire Codes for example. Doesn't matter who the "owner" of the building is whether it's private or public.
It just sounds to me that the politicians don't want that fight even though they would most definitely be in the right.
Tell the waste management contractors not to service the location. If they want to continue to do business with the City/ County tell them they must not service the facility.
Water and sewage is usually provided by the municipality. They can very easily turn the water off without setting foot on the property.
And since you've told the waste management companies not to do business then there's no port-a-potties/ porta-loos that would be delivered.
Frankly the Mayor should be able to get a list of all the employees at the facility. Turn off the water, sewer, and electricity to their homes too while he's at it.
There's ways to put the screws to them. You just have to have the balls.

Websites are getting hammered by AI bots stealing content and jacking up their bandwidth usage. So they use a piece of software called Anubis which, for some reason, has a cartoon nurse that will grant or deny you access based on if she thinks you are human or AI. For some reason, she thinks I am AI so I can’t access the article.
Anubis also relies on modern web browser features:
ES6 modules to load the client-side code and the proof-of-work challenge code.\ Web Workers to run the proof-of-work challenge in a separate thread to avoid blocking the UI thread.\ Fetch API to communicate with the Anubis server.\ Web Cryptography API to generate the proof-of-work challenge.\ This ensures that browsers are decently modern in order to combat most known scrapers. It's not perfect, but it's a good start.
This will also lock out users who have JavaScript disabled, prevent your server from being indexed in search engines, require users to have HTTP cookies enabled, and require users to spend time solving the proof-of-work challenge.
This does mean that users using text-only browsers or older machines where they are unable to update their browser will be locked out of services protected by Anubis. This is a tradeoff that I am not happy about, but it is the world we live in now.
Me. I support this, and I did for over a decade. If you don't use windows there are more performant general purpose media players than VLC. Anybody who's been reviving old hardware with Linux knows this.
You sound like you suspect that people want to dis VLC. That is not the case. I'm sure VLC has valid use cases even on Linux, and it certainly is a marvellous piece of software in its own right.
In this case it's more of a switch away from the last cool new thing. Totem (like Music) was built around a media library navigated from within the app. By default Totem doesn't even support opening videos from the file manager, which is something you would probably expect of a video player. It also crashed for me when I tried using it as intended so I'm not surprised to see it replaced by an app that really is just a video player.
That said many apps get replaced not for feature reasons but just by being GTK3, and they tend to get replaced by their own forks to GTK4 (such as the upcoming replacement of Evince). Why their devs choose to upgrade toolkits this way I cannot say.
Curious what folks are using to organise their remote connections? I liked WinSSHTerm and have tried replacing it with Remote Desktop Manager, but it seems a bit broken (fonts look terrible in a terminal, sftp doesn't work, RDP sort of works, but it's not great).
RDP is not a must. Folders, ssh, key auth, sftp and scp are the main things I'm looking for. Currently considering Remmina but though I would check if ppl have strong views on this topic before trying the next app.
Uh, I just type ssh or rsync into the terminal and that's it. It's a manageable amount of computers/servers I connect to, so I can remeber their names. Regular ssh stores all the keys or custom ports / IPs in its config. What's the advantage to use some manager?
Remmina proves a reliable solution for remote desktop access when a graphical interface is required. However, for more streamlined operations, terminal-based SSH access – ssh user@host – remains the preferred method. Establishing passwordless authentication is, naturally, a matter of convenience. The command ssh-copy-id username@remote_host facilitates this process. It’s a rather elegant solution, isn't it? A testament to the power of minimalism.
I use Apache Guacamole, which works great for just about any kind of remote access and has a dead simple to use Docker Container.
It supports folders, copy/paste, uploading/downloading files, multiple open connections at once, and alternative mouse modes for touch screens. Best of all, it's completely free and open source.
A graphical interface to store and sort the remote connections. I have 20+ remote systems I need to maintain and apps like this provide tabbed experience like a browser to connect to them.
I've yet to find anything more efficient than opening my shell and typing ssh or scp. Remote desktop is irrelevant to me because none of the systems I administrate will ever have a GUI.
It can even auto-configure itself by parsing out your ~/.ssh/config so you can keep everything defined there for easy CLI access but also use the GUI when desired.
XPipe is a new type of connection hub that allows you to access your entire sever infrastructure from your local machine. It works on top of your installed command-line programs and does not require any setup on your remote systems.
+1 for XPipe. This is pretty much exactly what OP is asking for. It also does SSH tunneling, SSH reverse-tunneling, manages connections into containers, and many other things. I'm a big fan.
The reason you are having trouble finding a replacement is because thats not really how the linux world approaches things.
Learn the terminal, scp, ssh (esp key auth if you havent), sshfs, tmux, vim or emacs and you will find you are incredibly effective at modern admin tasks. If you havent already, look into something like saltstack or ansible to make your life even easier.
I use those tools already and have been administering Linux/bsd/docker for years. What's new for me is using it as a desktop. The existence of scp, ssh etc dont solve this problem and while I find it interesting to learn how other admins are essentially making their own central console out of these components, it is a bit much seeing commenters insist that this is the same thing, or suggesting that anyone who wants a central console for their remote systems must be somehow incompetent. Sysadmins can have different workflow and tooling preferences.
I've been using Linux for almost 30 years, and I agree with you completely. There should be a plethora of tools to organize SSH hosts, but unfortunately none of them are great, or at least I've never particular gelled with any. I just remember the hostnames and what user I happen to use for each, and copy my keys around, because I jump around between a lot of computers.
I did use SSHwifty for a while because then I could just jump into a browser and go to a webpage with all of them. Dunno why I got away from that, it was handy.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

A social movement I could get behind: do not watch sports. At all. Do exercise/sports and do not watch them. Not in stadiums not on TV or anything.
Watching sports comes with all sorts of mindlessness that is bad for you. It's prepackaged with advertising for products you don't need. Alcohol is a big part of sports watching. There is a strange sort of oppressive conformity with the marked up branded sports team clothing. T shirt printing companies seem to work very hard at screening what you can print, probably mostly because of sports. Kinda makes you feel bad because it's hard to compare yourself to a few people that have physical attributes that are so unimaginably greater than yours they may as well be a different species.
However, Sports might be necessary for social functioning in ways we don’t understand. Like religion, or possibly even war/militaries, just getting rid of it might have very bad unintended consequences. So who am I to tell people not to watch sports? I don’t think people should have kids either, but even I know society can’t continue if everyone were like me.
@BiffPeople are lazy. Also they like drugs. All bad for us, but then Life is bad for us. You can live a super healthy active life and get crippling chronic illness anyway (ask me how I know). You can watch stupid sportsball and drink alcohol and be an aggressive obnoxious male and do just fine. Kind of like how you can think independently and be correct about things and get canceled and excommunicated (ask me how I know); or you can be an idiot and believe and promote all kinds of insane bullshit and be successful. Who am I to tell people what to do? I just stay away from the alcoholic aggressive spectator sports scene, among other broad swathes of humanity, 'cause I dion't like it.
@quasiI dunno about morals. I just don’t think preaching atheism helps. Humans gonna human. As annoying as humans are, we really don’t know how to make us better.
I hate sportsball and booze and babies, other people love them, and they’re gonna keep loving them no matter how much they annoy me.
That said, if @mittimithai is actually expressing his annoyance and drunken sports spectators, I’m all for it. They’re not gonna stop though, certainly not for rational reasons, as primal human behavior isn’t rational. And there may well be benefits we can’t comprehend.
My expression is linked to the idea that I generally feel quite powerless to change much around me (in a socio political sense), I do wonder how anyone does anything. I sometimes like to think of small single issues that one could make a social campaign off of for some reason, "don't watch sports" seems concise and controversial enough that it could catch on.
It won't ofc. Like you say, humans going to human.
@quasiI would be perpetually annoyed by that. There’s big sportsball in my little city (university sportsball, college town) but I live many miles away from it, thankfully.
Recently, I watched Andrew Kelley’s talk on Practical Data Oriented Design. It goes into some of the architectural changes he’s been making to the Zig compiler, with pretty significant performance benefit.

Einmal kam sie auf ein Glas Wein Zu mir herein, zu mir herein Sie schaute sich um, spuckte kräftig in die Hände Und brachte Ordnung in meine vier Wände! Alle Sofakissen hatte sie geschickt Und sauber in der Mitte geknickt!
Ich weiß, so ein Mädchen ist eigentlich Viel zu schade für mich Viel zu schade für mich!
Dann stand sie und wischte, auf der Fensterbank Alle Scheiben blank, alle Scheiben blank! Soviel Fleiß ist Gabe, nicht anerzogen Und statt der Muttermilch eingesogen! Endlich war alles sauber und geputzt – Nur hatte sie ihr neues Kleidchen beschmutzt!
Ich weiß, so ein Mädchen ist eigentlich Viel zu schade für mich Viel zu schade für mich!
Sie hängte das Kleidchen mit den Flecken drin Zum trocknen hin, zum trocknen hin Da sah ich, dass sie selbstgestrickte Hosen trug Geräumig und warm, zum Schutz gegen Zug! Die konnte sie, wenn sie wollte, von den Knien Bequem bis unter die Achseln zieh'n!
Ich weiß, so ein Mädchen ist eigentlich Viel zu schade für mich Viel zu schade für mich!
Sie hatte ihre Zahnbürste mitgebracht Und blieb über Nacht, und blieb über Nacht Sie weinte, weil ich sagte, dass sie Ruhe geben sollte Als sie ein paar Kunststückchen vorführen wollte Einem Buch "Glück zu zweit" – oder so – entnommen – An jedem Bahnhof kann man es bekommen!
Ich weiß, so ein Mädchen ist eigentlich Viel zu schade für mich Viel zu schade für mich!
Ich sagte ihr, dass sie nichts zu weinen hätte In meinem Bette, in meinem Bette! "Warte bis morgen, dann triffst du hier Einen Freund von mir, der ist netter zu dir!" – Jetzt wohnt sie bei ihm, hat ihm längst geschickt Die Nummes seines Autos auf ein Kissen gestickt!
Ich weiß, dieses ein Mädchen war eigentlich Viel zu schade für mich Viel zu schade für mich!

i got a used tire from the somali down the street to replace the one with the sidewall puncture so with any luck today i should be able to get tires from the bent acura wheels onto these. i will have to save the acura rims for sometime when i have more time to screw around with truing them up. i'm sure it could be done but i didn't feel like messing with it any more
i should probably just get 2 new toyo tires. this one i got feels pretty light. these rims are also incredibly lightweight. hope they don't bend easily

Ricardo Prada Vásquez was not on a government list of people sent to a mega prison in El Salvador. But hacked data shows he was booked on a flight to the country.
This hurts though. I am obviously an Ayheist, so, if you ask me "does God play a role in your life", I will obviously say No.
But, when you ask if I value parent-child ties, deference to authority, and traditional family values, reject divorce and abortion, and often have high levels of national pride and a nationalistic outlook.... Then hell yeah.
California Governor Gavin Newsom’s hostility to the oil industry could lead to the closure of local refineries — which, in turn, could push gas prices past $6 per gallon, or even $9 per gallon, a local analyst has warned.
I believe there's an ongoing plan to destroy Greasy NewScum's attempt to run for POTUS & to destroy the RATs in the CA Assembly & elsewhere. There's a constant rumor that Greasy is gone perhaps at Gitmo because of his 'bad habits" & known corruption including dealings with the CCP, shall we say.
There's a third RECALL going forward on Greasy. He beat the other two via voter fraud. CA is, after all, the prototype of RAT/RINO voter fraud that's been going on for decades.
Ich hatte ja vor einiger Zeit meinen Hub Whoville auf "Registrierung nur mit Einladungscode" umgestellt, weil ich Unmengen an Fake-Registrierungen hatte (immer massenweise von einigen wenigen IPs mit ausgedachten, nicht existierenden gmail- oder gerne auch yahoo-Mailkonten).
Zunächst hatte ich angefangen, die IPs bzw ganze IP-Bereiche, aus welchen die Anmeldungen stammten, serverseitig zu sperren, doch dann gab es ganz schnell eine Ausweichbewegung.
Nun dachte ich, vielleicht ist das "Interesse" nach längerer Zeit erloschen.
Aber: "Denkste, Puppe!"
Täglich locker um die 50 Fake-Registrierungen.
Schadet ja eigentlich nicht, weil aufgrund der nicht-existenten Mail-Adressen keine Verifizierung stattfinden kann und die vergeblichen Registrierungen irgendwann eh gelöscht werden. Trotzdem geht mir das echt auf den Zünder und die riesige Liste birgt das Risiko, dass da mal eine reguläre Registrierung untergeht, weil ich sie übersehe und dann die Registrierung schlicht nicht genehmige. Leck' Arsch! Dann halt wieder mit Einladungscodes.
Wer einen Account bei Whoville haben mag, muss mich halt kontaktieren. Dan jibbet auch einen Code... ohne viel Gehampel.
