Greta Thunberg & Yasemin Acar interviewed by Al Jazeera aboard the #Madleen, a sailboat carrying humanitarian aid (food, medical supplies...) and 12 non-violent activists to #Gaza.

Previous boats from the #Freedomflotilla have been attacked and stopped by #Israel.

#GretaThunberg said : "And no matter how dangerous this mission is, it is nowhere near as dangerous as the silence of the entire world in the face of a livestreamed #genocide."

Israel hits Beirut, warns of more Lebanon strikes global.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202…

Made a big(?) mistake with `mv /*/*/* ./`


Background:

I think I messed up ...
Wanted to get a lot of files out of a nested folderstructure 3 levels deep and used mv /*/*/* ./ somewhere deep in my personal folders.
I got a lot of errors and quick as I could stopped it.
Now that folder is is messed up with a lot of stuff (see below) which I dont know the origin of.
The good news: I have fairly recent backups

Questions:

  • Could they be from subdirectories in my home folder?
  • Could they be from subdirectories outside my home folder? Especially grubenv caught my eye.
  • Could it be potentially dangerous to reboot? I leave my PC on untill I know more.
  • Would it be possible to reverse the moving in some way, to put them back where they belong, even manually?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Why do low framerates *feel* so much worse on modern video games?


Like I'm not one of THOSE. I know higher = better with framerates.

BUT. I'm also old. And depending on when you ask me, I'll name The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask as my favourite game of all time.

The original release of that game ran at a glorious twenty frames per second. No, not thirty. No, not even twenty-four like cinema. Twenty. And sometimes it'd choke on those too!

.... And yet. It never felt bad to play. Sure, it's better at 30FPS on the 3DS remake. Or at 60FPS in the fanmade recomp port. But the 20FPS original is still absolutely playable.

Yet like.

I was playing Fallout 4, right? And when I got to Boston it started lagging in places, because, well, it's Fallout 4. It always lags in places. The lag felt awful, like it really messed with the gamefeel. But checking the FPS counter it was at... 45.

And I'm like -- Why does THIS game, at forty-five frames a second, FEEL so much more stuttery and choked up than ye olde video games felt at twenty?

in reply to Count Regal Inkwell

My favorite game of all time is Descent, PC version to be specific, I didn't have a PlayStation when I first played it.

The first time I tried it, I had a 386sx 20MHz, and Descent, with the graphics configured at absolute lowest size and quality, would run at a whopping 3 frames per second!

I knew it was basically unplayable on my home PC, but did that stop me? Fuck no, I took the 3 floppy disks installer to school and installed it on their 486dx 66MHz computers!

I knew it would just be a matter of time before I got a chance to upgrade my own computer at home.

I still enjoy playing the game even to this day, and have even successfully cross compiled the source code to run natively on Linux.

But yeah I feel you on a variety of levels regarding the framerate thing. Descent at 3 frames per second is absolutely unplayable, but 20 frames per second is acceptable. But in the world of Descent, especially with modern upgraded ports, the more frames the better 👍

in reply to Count Regal Inkwell

@Count Regal Inkwell Most people can't honestly perceive any change in their visual field in less than 1/60th of a second except perhaps at the very periphery (for some reason rods are faster than cones and there are more rods in your peripheral vision) and even then not in much detail. So honestly, frame rates above 60 fps don't really buy you anything except bragging rights.

@binom If you film with a camera with a ntsc vertical reference rate of 59.95 hz you will see a beat note between the lights and the led lighting indicating it is not well filtered if at all. If you have a newer HiDef camera, most of them work at a 24Hz refresh rate, that IS a slow enough rate that you see jitter in the movement, they also will have a beat note if recording under most LED lights. Many cheap led lights just have a capacitive current limiter and that's it. If you power them off of 50Hz you will see the flicker, if you get dimmable LED lights they will NOT have a filter. But I don't want to interfere with anyone's bragging rights.

@sthetic Answer 1) Because I think the latter is their goal, and offering convenience is just a way to try to achieve it.

2) Experience. I'm 66 years old, I've watched the slippery slope in action take away too many of my freedoms already, I don't care to give up more.

What's interesting about Western politics right now is that the more people #protest and resist, the more authoritarian governments become.

It's the only trick government have: silence dissent by arresting peaceful protesters and making laws to stop people saying things.

But this is only exposing the sham of Western free speech and democracy, and our leaders are only assisting this collapse in politics. The more they censor ideas, the more curious people get, the more people realise our governments serve corporations and colonialism over people.

TIL USB Type C management ICs have a "dead battery mode".

USB Power Delivery requires that the source and sink chat over the port's configuration channel to negotiate the voltage and power to deliver on VBUS. But that requires the downstream battery-powered device to be sufficiently on to run that negotiation.

IOW, if the battery powered device depletes its battery and the USB management IC loses power, when you plug a charger into the USB port, there's nobody there for the power source to talk to, electrically it looks like the cable isn't connected to anything. And so per the spec, the source provides none volts on VBUS in that condition. Your device really needs power, but it can't ask for power until it has power, and until then it looks to the charger like it's not even there.

You don't need to implement USB PD to be a USB device. Instead, you can place some resistors across a couple of the port's lines, which signals to the upstream device that yes, there is a device connected, and no, it doesn't support USB-PD negotiation and you should just supply the default 5V/3A on VBUS.

Dead battery mode is a trivial dead man's switch: the USB-PD management chip has an input signal, that it expects the local CPU/MCU to hold at logic high to show that it's alive. While the signal is high, the configuration channel lines are passed through to the processor, which handles the handshaking and negotiating.

But if that lifeline signal goes low, or the USB-PD chip itself loses power, then the configuration channel gets disconnected from the local CPU, and the standard "5V/3A please" signal resistors get connected instead. With that, the next time you plug the device in, it'll get the default 5V/3A, and can use that to boot up the USB-PD management silicon, flick the switch again to get control of the configuration channel, and do the negotiation to ask for more power.

Given how much the datasheets tout this feature, I presume it wasn't there in the first generation of USB-PD ICs, and that's how we got a rash of battery-powered devices that die unrecoverably if you let them discharge completely.

in reply to Dave Anderson

I guess technically you could also do the jump-start through the USB port, you just have to violate the spec and blindly supply 5V/3A on VBUS even if the sense resistors aren't there. Just long enough for sense resistors and/or configuration channel traffic to show up, then you can go back to obeying the spec.

... Come to think of it I expect aliexpress has a little cottage industry of boards that let you do exactly that...

in reply to Dave Anderson

Two slight corrections: you can't ask for "standard 5V/3A", you only ask for 5V. The available current is advertised by the source with Rp (which has 3 options: either USB standard 100/150/500/900mA, 1.5A or 3A), the device does not ask for it.

Also, providing 5V on VBUS without Rd on CC does not violate the spec. USB-C sockets are not supposed to do that, but plugs can. Otherwise USB A to C cables would be illegal.

Is it wrong to enjoy art made by bad people? I think it's a very complicated question and the answers will definitely have a lot of variation between people. What if it really is a good art? Or just enjoyable? Should everyone avoid it? People still listen music by Michael Jackson, for example, are they bad because of it?

My own approach is that qualities of what someone creates don't need to be inseparably tied to the personality or views of the author. Everyone can enjoy what they like without the obligation to find out details of the author and adjust their preference based on that. It's fine to make them aware of the problems, it's not fine to make them feel bad because they like something that is not wrong on its own. If you dislike the author enough for it to spoil their works for you, good for you. I also feel this way about some authors. But don't require it from other people.

That's my take. I'm curious, what's yours?

🔴 Je demande le passage sécurisé du navire humanitaire Freedom Flotilla ⛵
🔴 Je demande la fin du blocus et justice pour Gaza.

#palestine #gaza #Madleen
#France #elysee

⛵🕊️ 🇵🇸


Le Madleen, navire humanitaire de la Freedom Flotilla Coalition, transporte des médicaments, de la nourriture et des produits pour bébés vers Gaza, où l’aide humanitaire ne rentre plus depuis le 2 mars. Plus de 90 % de la population connaît la famine.

À bord : 12 humanitaires et militant•es pacifistes, dont l’eurodéputée #RimaHassan et l’activiste #GretaThunberg

Alors que la Flottille approche de Gaza, les risques d’attaque ou de détention illégale par Israël s’intensifient. De précédents navires ont été attaqués par Israël causant des morts, des blessés ou encore la destruction du bateau.

10 expert•es de l’ONU ont appelé le 2 juin à garantir un passage sûr, rappelant que cette mission est légale et conforme au droit international.

🎯 Cette campagne vise à interpeller les gouvernements des pays dont sont originaires les membres de l’équipage et aux larges desquels le navire passera dans les prochains jours (France, Suède, Allemagne, Espagne, Brésil, Turquie, Pays-Bas, Grèce, Egypte) pour exiger :

  • Un passage sécurisé pour le navire
  • L’entrée sans entraves de l’aide humanitaire à Gaza
  • Le respect du droit international par Israël

Mobilisons-nous dès maintenant en envoyant des courriels aux autorités concernées ainsi qu’en les interpellant publiquement !

Plus nous amplifions ce message, plus nous contribuons à protéger la mission et l’équipage à bord ! 🛡️ ⛵
