Freedom Flotilla organiser Huwaida Arraf shortly after she and the rest of the ship’s support crew lost contact with the Madleen:

“All those on board have been abducted. They have been taken against their will while they were sailing peacefully and lawfully in international waters…

They were in international waters, sailing towards Palestinian territorial waters, not getting near Israeli waters…

It needs to be made very clear that Israel has absolutely no jurisdiction, no lawful authority, to take over this vessel.”

No, Von der Leyen. Healthcare won't be improved by #AI.
On the contrary, AI is destroying the future of healthcare. Its engines are stealing researcher's work and atrophying the brains of future health professionals.
Medicine is a social science that needs critical thinking, empathy and compassion. All very distant concepts from those powerful shortsighted technocrats ruling the European Commission, the only beneficiaries of those €200 billion.
#Healthcare #SocialMedicine #ArtificialIntelligence
Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said: “AI will improve our healthcare, spur our research and innovation and boost our competitiveness. We want AI to be a force for good and for growth. We are doing this through our own European approach – based on openness, cooperation and excellent talent. But our approach still needs to be supercharged. This is why, together with our Member States and with our partners, we will mobilise unprecedented capital through InvestAI for European AI gigafactories. This unique public-private partnership, akin to a CERN for AI, will enable all our scientists and companies – not just the biggest - to develop the most advanced very large models needed to make Europe an AI continent.”

Quoting Haaretz's opinion column on the Gazafication of the West Bank:

Israeli forces fatally shot a 20-year-old man sleeping in his bed in a West Bank village, highlighting a disturbing pattern of disregard for Palestinian lives within the IDF.

[...] Army forces raided a Palestinian village in the dead of night, forcibly broke into an apartment building where no wanted men live and, for no reason at all, woke up all the building's residents, including babies, children and the elderly. Immediately after that, soldiers broke down the door of one apartment and entered it. One of the soldiers began raining live fire at almost point-blank range on a young man sleeping in his bed. It's not clear whether the young man managed to wake up, but it is clear that he was shot while still lying in bed.

[...] The fact is that judging by the IDF spokesperson's response, the military police haven't even opened an investigation, as is normal in cases where criminal behavior is suspected. Moreover, the soldier hasn't been arrested or even suspended from his position. All this means that in the view of the army's senior commanders, killing an innocent young man in his bed is a routine action.

[...] That's what happens when the army is killing thousands of innocents in the Gaza Strip – paramedics, journalists, children, elderly people, women and recently also hungry people waiting in line at food distribution centers. The Gazafication of the West Bank is at its height, and soldiers there evidently hunger to behave like their colleagues in Gaza do. And the IDF lets them do so, thereby emptying its onetime slogan about being the most moral army in the world of all content.

Tom Homan Says Trump Admin Sending National Guard to L.A. Over ICE Protests
Donald Trump’s “Border Czar” Tom Homan said Saturday the administration is planning to send in the National Guard Saturday evening to quell protests in Los Angeles.

“This is about enforcing the law, and again, we’re not going to apologize for doing it,” Homan said on Fox News. He continued: “We’re already ahead of the game. We were already mobilizing. We’re gonna bring National Guard in tonight. We’re gonna continue doing our job. We’re gonna push back on these people, and we’re gonna [enforce] the law.”

On Saturday night, following Homan’s on-camera remarks, both national Democratic and Republican figures were scrambling to figure out if he was just mouthing off, or if the federal troops were actually on their way, or just … what the hell was going on.

Two Trump administration officials say they learned about the alleged National Guard plans from journalists such as Rolling Stone’s who had reached out to them on Saturday evening, asking for clarification.

Homan did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment.

“The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) wrote on Bluesky Saturday evening. “That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.”

He added, “LA authorities are able to access law enforcement assistance at a moment’s notice. We are in close coordination with the city and county, and there is currently no unmet need. The Guard has been admirably serving LA throughout recovery. This is the wrong mission and will erode public trust.”

The president can request, but not order, a governor to deploy their state’s National Guard. The governor can refuse the request, and Trump would not be allowed under the Constitution to send National Guard troops to California from other states. However, the Trump administration has previously mulled invoking the Insurrection Act, which could allow the president to deploy the U.S. military domestically, federalize the National Guard, and send in troops to quell uprisings or civil disorder.


Editorializing beyond here:

The Insurrectionist invokes the Insurrection Act.


Trump to Send 2,000 National Guard Troops to L.A. Over ICE Protests

Donald Trump will send 2,000 National Guard to quell ICE protests in Los Angeles, according to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

The 2nd option is likely the goal. Inflaming tensions and overreacting makes the administration look like it's tough on crime to his base. Escalating a peaceful protest into a conflict can easily be spun into "the good guys are fighting the violent illegal criminals". The people that elected Trump want a strongman dictator and he's happy to show them that. Even the politically apathetic might see the conflict as "both sides went too far".

An earnest question about the AI/LLM hate

Hello, recent Reddit convert here and I'm loving it. You even inspired me to figure out how to fully dump Windows and install LineageOS.

One thing I can't understand is the level of acrimony toward LLMs. I see things like "stochastic parrot", "glorified autocomplete", etc. If you need an example, the comments section for the post on Apple saying LLMs don't reason is a doozy of angry people: infosec.pub/post/29574988

While I didn't expect a community of vibecoders, I am genuinely curious about why LLMs strike such an emotional response with this crowd. It's a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying (Veo 3) in a few years and I am personally concerned about many of the safety/control issues in the future.

So I ask: what is the real reason this is such an emotional topic for you in particular? My personal guess is that the claims about replacing software engineers is the biggest issue, but help me understand.

is the level of acrimony toward LLMs.


Good, since you apparantly arent able to use your brain, I'm gonna speed run it real quick:
- Its frying the planet
- its generating way to much slop, making anyone unable to find true non hallucinated information
- its a literal PsyOP
- it's rotting peoples critical thinking
- its being shoved down everyone's throat, tho it can't even generate simple things.
- people are using it to slood FOSS projects.

such an emotional response with this crowd.


Its not emotional, its just having the same negative experience over and over and over again

It's a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying


The only thing that's terrifying about it us peoples brain rotting away their critical thinking

** à Los Angeles** pas été surpris par les émeutes ou la violence.
Pas même la sévérité de la gestion de cette crise #trump ; l'homme n'éprouve que des sentiments de haine envers cet État démocratique libéral, et l'État lui rend le même sentiment, car il rejette sa politique, en particulier celle liée à la persécution des immigrés illégaux, et va jusqu'à leur fournir une protection et leur accorder tous leurs droits.

La Californie regorge d’immigrants pacifiques qui considèrent la politique de Trump comme une menace directe pour leur tissu social.

Ce qui se passe aujourd’hui n’est pas inhabituel ; c’est un conflit naturel, le résultat de politiques qui persécutent les immigrants illégaux – dont la majorité sont d’origine latino – qui ont créé des communautés soudées dans l’État.

Mais ce qui est anormal, c'est que Trump outrepasse l'autorité de l'État et envoie la Garde nationale sans coordination avec le gouverneur, malgré les déclarations de ce dernier selon lesquelles la police est capable de contenir les manifestations et qu'il n'y a pas besoin d'intervention militaire.
Le plus alarmant est que Trump ne s’est pas arrêté là, mais a menacé d’envoyer l’armée américaine et de couper le financement fédéral à l’État.

Il ne s’agit pas d’un président autoritaire menaçant ses adversaires à l’étranger, mais plutôt d’un président menaçant d’utiliser l’armée dans son pays contre son propre peuple.

Sous Trump, l’Amérique ne restera plus la même, et le monde ne restera plus le même.

Void linux. Package managers. Alternative to AUR?

Helloo, firstly this might be long post about people talking void linux hasnt much packages in opposite of arch which has aur, so i will try conveince some people to void linux and will tell also something about package managers.

Package manager is a thing that keeps organized all programs on your pc, normally you would have to go to site, download .deb or .tar.xz and etc. package manager takes cares of doing that and manager also integrates this package with system, so when theres update and something is added or deleted, package manager will take care of all.

Okay, so if its only downloading then why AUR has 97587 packages, and XBPS-SRC (void linux - aur alternative kinda) has much less? It's because AUR is community, anyone can maintain some package, XBPS-SRC also has community but by pulling requests to merge TEMPLATES, but that doesn't mean u can't add your own TEMPLATES.

Wait, wait, wait, what are TEMPLATES?

Its kind of script which makes Package manager do its thing. Templates in XBPS-src and "PKGBUILD?" in AUR are similar.

We have to tell in this script: what package, what version, give link to download and etc.

Example of TEMPLATE in XBPS-SRC for DISCORD:

# Template file for 'discord'
pkgname=discord
version=0.0.96
revision=1
archs="x86_64"
depends="alsa-lib dbus-glib gtk+3 libnotify nss libXtst libcxx libatomic
 xdg-utils webrtc-audio-processing libXScrnSaver"
short_desc="Chat and VOIP application"
maintainer="Ryan Conwell <ryanconwell@protonmail.com>"
license="custom:Proprietary"
homepage="https://discord.com/"

checksum=2b885df8aa69310726f46149e39c42d48eda8f14b53aae605b5d7fa6410c4c0c
repository=nonfree
restricted=yes
nopie=yes
nostrip=yes

do_install() {
    local package_location="usr/lib/$pkgname" item
    vmkdir usr/share/pixmaps
    vcopy discord.png /usr/share/pixmaps/
    vmkdir usr/share/applications
    vcopy discord.desktop /usr/share/applications/
    vmkdir ${package_location}
    chmod +x Discord
    for item in \
        locales \
        resources \
        Discord \
        libffmpeg.so \
        snapshot_blob.bin \
        discord.png \
        icudtl.dat \
        libEGL.so \
        libGLESv2.so \
        chrome_100_percent.pak \
        chrome_200_percent.pak \
        chrome-sandbox \
        chrome_crashpad_handler \
        resources.pak \
        libvulkan.so.1 \
        v8_context_snapshot.bin \
        postinst.sh \
        libvk_swiftshader.so \
        vk_swiftshader_icd.json
    do
        vcopy "${item}" "${package_location}"
    done
    vmkdir usr/bin
    ln -sfr $DESTDIR/${package_location}/Discord $DESTDIR/usr/bin/Discord
}

post_install() {
    vlicense $FILESDIR/LICENSE
}

Okay, but still AUR has much much more packages than xbps-src, why should i use it then? Why should i learn how to make templates?

I hope you don't use AUR blindly and just do yay -S something without looking what pkgbuild is doing, it might be dangerous not knowing what program can do and what script that is downloading it too right? XBPS-SRC learns you how to maintain packages.

Also theres way to share Templates with other by importing REPO of some templates, like librewolf-void repo and etc. So there's way to share packages.

So this is my way to conveince you to use void linux 😀. IN MY OPINION, void is what people think arch is. A diy distro with learning curve to understand how OS works. ARCH is great!, but void gives you more knowledge of what things systemd takes care.

To make thing little bit funnier theres easy and really nice (experimental and not official) script of installing void :

THANK YOU FOR READING! I might not be clear or right in some things so tell me about that in comment, i will read everything.

DIY KARMA KIT

Thank you for your comment, maybe people wont read 1:1 code, atleast they will learn how this kinda works, because now they just install things, but looking at templates they can actually understand its kinda simple script and get the idea of how it works. Also i wasn't comparing exactly xbps main void repos to AUR but overall xbps-src to aur, which can be similar because people can share templates, anyway we should still understand what package manager does and what download scripts are doing. Also void has runit so this mean u have to get more simple programs to run system like seatd dbus and etc. So overall i 2 arguments of void being better in understand of OS is actually knowing how to maintain packages and how system works from boot. Anyway i understand it is your opinion, all i can is tell u my opinion.

Edit: when i used systemd my system booted in 13sec, now on runit its 8sec, not really important thing but still

Since I've left my last job, I've been thinking about the guy who used me as an alternative to ChatGPT whenever he hit a problem that he couldn't vibe code the answer out of at work.

He basically rotted his own brain by compulsively using ChatGPT in lieu of actually thinking with most any of the projects he was working on. Instead of taking the time to read through code in our framework, look up documentation, or do any sort of debugging, he instead just begged and pleaded with ChatGPT to try and get somewhere because "it was faster." Basically just really hammering his brain with the Programmer's Slot Machine. (@davidgerard wrote a really good article here about this specific gambling addiction angle here. I highly highly recommend reading/watching the corresponding YouTube video:
pivot-to-ai.com/2025/06/05/gen… )

Back to the story; When that wasn't working, which was a significant portion of the time, he'd then just turn and use me as a "more informed alternative" to ChatGPT.

I worked fully remote and the majority of our interactions was via a Teams chat. which apparently crossed some wires in his monkey brain and made him start just... Basically verbally barraging me like he would with the company ChatGPT instance. No thoughts at all, just an immediate process of:

- Ask vague question
- Get guess for an answer with a request for more details
- Try applying the guess blindly without thinking if it's applicable at all
- Have it not work and just report back that it didn't work.
- No follow-up details, no further explanation of what was going on or what he's trying to do. Nothing added past the original vague situation
- If lucky, I might get a screenshot of part of the error, meticulously sliced before it gave something useful in the output because he stopped reading error output to things and made no attempt to understand it. (Why? ChatGPT can do that part!)
- Rinse and Repeat until I get fed up and get into a call with him
- Fix the thing in less than a minute, pointing out that he should have been able to tell what was wrong almost immediately if he actually dropped a break-point and debugged the code at *literally any point* along the way
- Fuck off immediately after getting his fix, no thank you or anything
- start the process anew the following day when he vibe coded himself into a corner all over again

I literally had to go to leadership and make them have a talk with him and get him to leave me the fuck alone at work, after repeated attempts to establish boundaries about it, due to how much time it sucked out of me being able to work on other projects. Effectively just doubling up my work and slamming me with burn out right at the start of the year for absolutely no reason other than his belligerent insistence to just Not Do His Job Without His Hand Being Held By A Chat Window.

It rapidly went from a "He sometimes asks informed questions that I can answer and help him with. I enjoy working with him" to "The dude isn't even trying in the slightest and is now basically offloading his work onto me because he broke his capacity to actually do work independently of an external chat window. I fucking hate him and I hope he gets in a car wreck so I can get a break from the bleakness of dealing with him every goddamn morning"

ChatGPT has basically just been an absolute blight for me since it's inception. Going from the team being generally pro-crypto to intensely pro-genAI/LLM because their favorite scammers (er.. I mean YouTubers) had them hooked on a fantasy of some day making it Big by jumping from one Hype cycle to the next. I sincerely was very close to just finding an entirely different career path altogether because of just how incredibly shitty it was working with that team on just about anything, but lacking the job experience on the resume to land someplace else.

Nobody wanted to be an actual expert, nobody really wanted to learn anything. They had their degree and ChatGPT, which means they learned all they ever will need. ...While working in an industry that tends to re-invent itself every half decade or so while half-assing solutions with an outsourced bullshit generator. 🫠

All in the name of "Well it got me from point A to point B faster." and leaving it at that, despite taking significantly longer than they should have from the get go over it.

I've seen and lived what an AI Fueled future looks like:
Mediocre men harassing their talented and likely autistic peers until their peers just up and fuckin leave to a different organization out of frustration and exhaustion.

I think down the road, we'll be able to measure the negative impact using LLMs has on people's cognitive faculties by comparing it to horse kicks to the head, and only be exaggerating it by a little bit.

Die Behauptung Greta Thunberg würde humanitäre Hilfe nur als Selbstinszenierung nach Gaza bringen ist eine extrem lächerliche Aussage.

Die israelische Regierung darf keine Menschen in internationalen Gewässern festnehmen. Die IDF hat keine Jurisdiktion über den Gazastreifen. Alles was hier geschieht ist höchstgradig verstoßend gegen das Völkerrecht und Aktivist:innen wie Greta Thunberg stellen sich in die erste Reihe um auf diese Missstände aufmerksam zu machen. Denn ALLE humanitären Hilfslieferungen werden blockiert, auch ihre. Anhand dieser Aktion sieht die gesamte Welt wie Israel sich gegen Menschenrechte zur wehr setzt um ihren Genozid durchzuführen.

Genau wie du es schreibst sagt es das israelische Außenministerium auch, aber „Selfie Yacht” ist ggf. nicht der beste Begriff den sie hätten wählen sollen, wenn man bedenkt wie viele ihrer eigenen Soldaten von Kriegsverbrechen überführt wurden Anhand von Selfies und Selbstinszenierung...

Ein Bild einer Twitter Userin die sich über die Aussage der israelischen Regierung von „Selfie Yacht” um über die Freedom Flotilla zu sprechen lustig macht in dem sie ein Bild von IDF Soldaten zeigt welche vor den Trümmern von Gaza ein Selfie machen.

Tips to secure SSH: cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-unix-…

The more software you use, the larger the attack surface for your Linux install is. It's always good to take a look at all the installed applications, and libraries, and remove what you don't use anymore. You can also remove packages that aren't linked to anything else and aren't used by anything.

On Debian or Ubuntu, for example, you can find these by running sudo apt autoremove

And on a desktop, you probably already apply updates, or your distro has auto updates enabled. But on a server, it's easy to let things slide, and forget to log in regularly and make sure things are up to date. I'm guilty of that myself.

And just like with packages, libraries, and apps, you should also make sure you only run the services you actually use. You can list all services running with:

systemctl list-unit-files

To stop a service you don't need, you can run

systemctl stop SERVICE

To stop the service from starting with the system, you can run

systemctl disable SERVICE

If you're on a server, the general rule of thumb is also NOT to run a graphical desktop on it. It will often be much more secure to use SSH to log in to the server remotely.

But you might also need to secure SSH first. If you have multiple users, make sure only the ones who need it have SSH access. To do that, you can edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file, and type AllowUsers then the names of the users that will actually have access to SSH.

Now, something that might be useful in general, for a server or a desktop, is making sure all the users are correctly handled. The first thing will be to disable root login.

If you decide to disable the root account, make sure at least one user has admin privileges though, or you'll have a system without any way to access any task with sudo. Once you're certain everything is ok, you can use the following method:

Edit /etc/passwd, and change the first line, by replacing /bin/bash, or whatever other shell root currently logs into, by /sbin/nologin (or /usr/sbin/nologin depending on the distro)

If you prefer, you can simply disable root login through SSH, so the account is still there if you want it locally, but remote attackers won't be able to login as root. To do so, you can edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and uncomment the PermitRootLogin line, and then set its value to no. Restart SSH with sytemctl restart sshd, and you're done.

To remove the ability to use USB, Thunderbolt or Firewire, you can add the following lines to their respective files (create them if need be). To revert this, just remove the lines that have been added in the various files by the commands.

Add: install usb-storage /bin/true to /etc/modprobe.d/disable-usb-storage.conf
Add blacklist firewire-core to /etc/modprobe.d/firewire.conf
Add blacklist thunderbolt to /etc/modprobe.d/thunderbolt.conf

How to enforce password complexity on Linux

Linux gives you lots of ways to create complexity in passwords that include a lot more than just length, such as mixing upper- and lower-case letters with numerals and punctuation marks along with other restrictions.

“Israel has no legal authority to detain international volunteers aboard the Madleen [...] This seizure blatantly violates international law and defies the ICJ’s binding orders requiring unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza. These volunteers are not subject to Israeli jurisdiction and cannot be criminalized for delivering aid or challenging an illegal blockade—their detention is arbitrary, unlawful, and must end immediately.”

I don’t know, asshole, was 1947 worth it? Was close to 80 years of settler colonialism and apartheid worth it? Is the current genocide of the Palestinian people being committed by israel worth it? ravenation.club/@welkin7/11465…

Israel had already declared what it was going to do. This was bound to occur. About baby formula, food and medical supplies, the Palestine authority should step up and handle it.

Gaza strip had zero Israel troops prior to 7-Oct-2023. It had hospitals, schools and electricity. Now significant portion of Gaza is rubble and it is crawling with Israeli troops.

The loosers are people on both sides. How many classes have children of Gaza missed? Was Oct 7 worth it?

To make D-Day a success, the Allies thought they might have to break through formidable German defences. One unconventional idea was a "giant firework".

09.06.2025 Militarismus ist kein Erziehungsziel


Friedensfähig statt kriegstüchtig!

Eine Woche vor der 1. offiziellen Militärjubelfeier- dem Veteranentag - mit der Bundeswehr vor dem Reichstagsgebäude müssen wir noch einmal auf die in unsere Köpfe geprügelte "Wende" in unseren Köpfen aufmerksam machen. Plötzlich wird wieder offen über Kriegstüchtigkeit gesprochen und oft sogar schon ein Datum für den nächsten Krieg genannt.

Angeblich will Russland ab 2029 die NATO angreifen und deshalb müssen wir unseren in den letzten 3jahren bereits verdoppelten Kriegshaushalt noch einmal mehr als verdoppeln (von 2 auf 5% des BIP). Dem Wahnsinn scheinen keine Grenzen gesetzt, denn so eine Erhöhung ist ohne weitere Einschnitte in Soziales, Bildung, Rente unmöglich.

Um diese wahnsinnigen Ziele durchzusetzen soll die Wehrpflicht - und die innere Bereitschaft bei der Jugend - erhöht werden, wie der 1. verlinkte Artikel zeigt. Lesenswert!

Im 2. verlinkten Artikel wird dann deutlich, was die Rolle Deutschlands als Kriegsschauplatz dabei sein soll. Mit Polen an der "zukünftigen Ostfront" gelegen, müssen die Brücken, Straßen und Eisenbahnlinien für den Durchmarsch der NATO Partner im Westen "resilient" sein.

Nebenbei wird dabei auch an die "Probleme" für Krankenhäuser, THW und Feuerwehr gedacht, die mit den hohen Opferzahlen überfordert sein werden. Seit der proklamierten "Zeitenwende" werden Vorschläge unter dem Label "Zivil-Militärische Zusammenarbeit" in die Debatte geworfen, die allesamt grausig sind. Auch der Bunkerbau soll wieder gefördert werden. Dabei werden die Bunker bei der nächsten Ahrtal-Katastrophe genauso absaufen wie die Häuser ...

Abgesehen von den Milliarden-Kosten für diese angebliche Resilienz, die auch in den beschlossenen "Sondervermögen" (Jahrzehnte andauernde Schulden) nicht vorhanden sind, wird es langsam Zeit die Debatte für Alternativen zur Kriegstüchtigkeit zu öffnen. Wenn dies nicht bald geschieht, machen wir selbst Deutschland wirtschaftlich, sozial und bildungsmäßig zu einer Ruine ...

Kriegstüchtig 2029: Deutschland als neue Nato-Drehscheibe

Deutschland soll zur logistischen Basis der Nato werden. Ein neues Konzept plant die Umrüstung der zivilen Infrastruktur für den Kriegsfall. Was bedeutet das für die Bevölkerung?
