Useful #advice for anyone thinking of #SelfHosting. Also why I'm not really a fan of #self-hosting, because when you #SelfHost you have to be your own #IT department and #InfoSec department 24/7/365.

Identity Management is key.

Patching is key.

Network segmentation is key.

Having your own personal SIEM is key.

Frankly, it's way too much work for the layman to even realize and there's a huge Dunning-Kruger effect that takes place with 99% of people who want to self-host.

#géopolitique #guerre #impérialisme #Israël

Comme l'a fait remarquer Tariq Ali, il est évident que le pays qui a le plus urgent besoin d'un changement de régime est Israël. Toutefois, étant donné l'énorme soutien populaire israélien au génocide de Benjamin Netanyahou, le problème dépasse le cadre du régime. Comme l'a récemment déclaré Gideon Levy, "Diplomates et décideurs, vous comprenez ? En Israël, nous sommes tous des Ben-Gvir et des Smotrich. Nous tous." La seule solution consiste à démanteler l'État d'Israël, comme d'autres régimes coloniaux l'ont été au siècle dernier, et comme l'Afrique du Sud coloniale l'a été plus récemment. L'État ethno-suprémaciste doit céder la place à un État démocratique garantissant l'égalité des droits pour tous, ainsi que le droit au retour et à l'indemnisation de tous les Palestiniens et de leurs familles. En d'autres termes, une solution à un seul État, que DiEM25 soutient depuis longtemps. Avec l'arrêt de nouvelles guerres au Moyen-Orient, c'est le seul moyen d'apporter la justice aux Palestiniens et une lueur d'espoir pour la paix et la stabilité dans la région.

Drums of war: Iran and the Western propaganda machine - Sona Prakash


#geopolitics #war #imperialism #Israel #aggression

Prevailing media narratives on Iran

A major one is the nukes narrative, which enables a genocidal apartheid regime possessing plenty of nuclear warheads, one which refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, to bomb – with the full support of the West – a country that did sign the NPT and has never possessed nukes. The pretext is that they might someday acquire them! Israel’s nukes, on the other hand, render it untouchable and unaccountable, able to threaten and attack its neighbours with impunity by invoking the “Samson option“.

As Jonathan Cook commented, the double standards are needed to keep Israel as the only nuclear-armed state in the Middle East, exerting unrestrained military power in an oil-rich region the West needs to control. This explains Europe’s Orwellian rhetoric after Israel’s first strikes, condemning Iran for attacks on its own territory – outstanding even by the current standards of European complicity. In the words of Harrison Mann, who resigned from his post at the Defence Intelligence Agency last year in protest over US policy in Gaza

„Die politische Linke will die ungesteuerte Massenzuwanderung, wobei Flüchtlingsschutz oder die Zuwanderung von Fachkräften allenfalls Vorwände sind. In links-grünen Kreisen wird offen gesagt, dass die Massenzuwanderung der #Enthomogenisierung dient. Um das einordnen zu können, muss man verstehen, was der ideologische Hintergrund ist.


Axel Steier, eine massgebende Person der grün-linken «Seenotretter», hat das dieser Tage ziemlich freimütig auf Twitter erklärt. Nach seinem Weltbild würde es in Zukunft keine «Weissbrote» mehr geben. Sie würden aussterben. Durch die Migration erfolgt die «Enthomogenisierung» der «Weissbrote», und damit werde die Evolution beschleunigt. «In 50–100 Jahren wird es keine Weissbrote mehr geben, weil sich ihre Nachkommen für einn Partnerin entscheidet, der nicht weiss ist.»

Derartige Aussagen sind kein radikaler Unsinn eines bekifften Grünen, sondern sind ein zentrales Element der Ideologie der sogenannten Anti-Deutschen in den linken Parteien (Grüne, SED/Die Linke, SPD und linker Flügel der CDU) und korrespondieren auch mit Elementen der Woke-Ideologie.“

"Of course, we don’t know exactly how many nuclear warheads Israel has, because Israeli leaders refuse to publicly admit they have any. The whole military program is kept in near-total secrecy, under a policy called “strategic ambiguity,” meaning the existence of the bombs is neither confirmed nor denied. Historians believe Israel first got a nuclear weapon in 1967, after secretly refining plutonium at the Dimona facility and running a “full deception campaign” to convince U.S. inspectors the purpose of the reactors there was civilian rather than military. (Ironically, this is exactly the kind of deception Israel now accuses Iran of practicing.) It’s also strongly suspected that Israel tested a nuclear weapon off the coast of South Africa in 1979, in partnership with that country’s apartheid government. It’s called the Vela incident, after the spy satellite that spotted the nuclear flash. But “strategic ambiguity” means there’s little international oversight or accountability involved with any of this, and much of it takes place in violation of international law. Like North Korea and a small handful of other nations, Israel has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), despite United Nations resolutions that it should do so. It has signed the Limited Test Ban Treaty of 1963, but likely broke it with the South African incident. And most importantly, its leaders refuse to allow inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to access Dimona, so we have no way of knowing what’s going on in there.

Under U.S. law, Israel’s rogue nuclear program means that the United States should not be supplying it with military aid of any kind. The law in question is the International Security Assistance and Arms Export Control Act of 1976, and its language is unambiguous. But for more than 50 years now, U.S. leaders have been willing to ignore their own laws and accept this..."

The more people rely on generative AI, the more the internet becomes swamped with error-strewn content which then gets hoovered back up into LLM training datasets. The cumulative long-term impact of all this is a gradual degradation at the societal level not only of a population's capacity for critical consumption, but of the quality of the knowledge-base itself. Couple that with AI being deliberately used by governments and Big Tech to influence public opinion, and it's hello techno-dystopia.

What is your opinion on ray/path tracing and real time upscaling (DLSS/FSR/XeSS) in video games?

I love ray tracing and path tracing when they're done right. Ik fully ray traced scenes are hardly playable even on high end cards without upscaling but like if one has a powerful enough card, why not utilize its potential? Yet most people don't seem to care about RT.

When it comes to upscaling though, I hate it, and I'm not even talking about frame gen. It makes things look blurry and causes annoying artifacts. I think playing on lowest settings with clear textures is more enjoyable long term than maxed out in 4k with a consistently blurry image. Also this new technology makes devs care less about optimization (which will backfire btw as we're approaching the physical limit of transistor size).

Il prit un marteau de fer, long de cinquante centimètres, posa un couteau utilitaire dans sa poche, et quitta sa maison à 3 heures du matin avec un seul objectif : obtenir un sac de farine.»

Recently, I've created a video about how I think Linux lacks a strong software ecosystem. There were positive reactions, as well as negative ones, but in the end, I stand by it, and as such, I've created my own, Linux-based ecosystem. Let's see what I've used.

Nextcloud


The main building block to get me started was Nextcloud. It's an amazing hub for almost everything you might need: Notes, Tasks, Contacts, Files and Calendar, and it can be extended with other applications to really use it as your digital centerpiece.

I installed Nextcloud on a Linode server, using the base Nanode at 5€ per month, and installed Nextcloud in one command line, through SNAP. I know, I know, but it was just super convenient. I went with version 18, since it come with OnlyOffice pre-configured, I'll talk about that a little bit later.

Where Nextcloud shines, is in its integration with almost anything you might want to use. It uses open protocols like Webdav or caldav, and this means a lot of applications can sync to Nextcloud. As a matter of fact, if you're using GNOME, you can just login with your Nextcloud account and server, directly from the "Online Accounts" settings panel, and everything will be automatically synced to the default GNOME applications, which is pretty nice.

Computers


Syncing with a computer is pretty easy: either you use GNOME, and you just log into your account, and get auto sync right off the bat, or you sync individually to the apps you want to use.

File syncing can be done through the Nextcloud application, available through an appimage, or through Flatpak. I set it up in a bit of a weird way, since I don't want all my stuff located inside a single Nextcloud folder, so I've set up what they call folder sync connections, which basically map the content of a local folder on your hard drive, to a folder on Nextcloud. This means that my documents, for example, are not inside the Nextcloud folder, but inside the Documents folder in my /home/ directory.

I also sync my Notes to the Nextcloud/Notes folder. Little side "note" here as well, these notes are stored as individual files, so you can edit them manually without going into Nextcloud, so you can use any application of your choice.

Mobile devices


I have defaulted to /e/. This is a completely degoogled version of Android, which I've talked about in a previous video.

This has access to all android apps, minus the paid ones, and all apps on F Droid as well, so it's usable in a day to day scenario. It kinda looks like iOS by default, but you can install any launcher you want in there. It also uses MicroG to give you access to most Google apps if you really can't live without them.

This system provides default applications that are not linked to Google services, but integrate perfectly with Nextcloud: tasks, calendars, contacts, notes... You name it. This is what I'm using as a daily driver, on a Galaxy S9+.

You can achieve the same result on any Android phone using an app called DAVx5. It's paid for in the Google Play store, and free on F Droid. It just lets you enter your Nextcloud server and credentials, and lets you select what you want to sync to your device.

Now, in that scenario, you'll get calendars and contacts, but Notes and tasks probably won't sync to your manufacturer's application, so you might have to download a specific Android app to handle these instead.

You can also get the Nextcloud app, that lets you auto upload your pictures and syncs your photo albums as well, into separate folders.

Computer - phone integration


Now, what we're lacking is a phone to computer integration. Fortunately, there is KDE Connect, a fantastic tool that also works on other desktop environments, and even has a GNOME extension called GS Connect. It lets you receive notifications from your phone on your computer, send text messages from your desktop or laptop, send files back and forth just like AirPlay on APple devices, or use your phone as a remote control for audio on your desktop, or a plain old touchpad.

it was fa$hionable for a bit, a talking point ignored by many leftists, only to bite them back later. I think in general in the core of much of the misinformation and disinformation campaigns by the right there's usually a modicum of truth (exaggerated and extrapolated to inane conclusions, of course), and years of living in denial of that definitely factored in the fascist swing we are observing worldwide.

Fake neutrality / BBC drops “Gaza: Doctors Under Attack” documentary

The #BBC’s decision to cancel the #Gaza medics documentary claiming “impartiality” concerns is bias masquerading as journalistic neutrality. Framing journalist Ramita Navai’s statements as mere “opinion” is disgusting. Describing Israel as “a rogue state that’s committing war crimes and ethnic cleansing, and mass-murdering Palestinians,” accurately summarizes findings from international legal institutions, human rights organizations, and her own documentary evidence. The #ICJ has found plausible evidence of genocide, #UN experts have documented systematic targeting of medical facilities, thousands of healthcare workers have been killed, so presenting doctors’ firsthand accounts isn’t “partial” - it’s essential documentation and possibly their professional obligation to their viewers.

[follow up] Over 400 media figures call for BBC board member’s removal over Gaza coverage conflicts

More than 400 celebrities, journalists and media figures including Miriam Margolyes, Mike Leigh and 111 #BBC staff have signed a letter demanding the removal of BBC board member Robbie Gibb. The signatories cite conflict of interest concerns, as Gibb led the consortium that bought the Jewish Chronicle in 2020 and served as its director until August 2024.

The letter alleges the BBC is “crippled by the fear of being perceived as critical of the Israeli government” and points to the corporation’s decision to commission but shelve the documentary “Gaza: Doctors Under Attack” as evidence of editorial bias.

BBC staff claim they face censorship while Gibb remains in an influential position on the editorial standards committee despite his connections to pro-Israel media.

Must add here:

The pro-Israel lobby protects Israel’s actions against Palestinians rather than fighting #antisemitism. Wealthy Jewish donors in influential positions across the #US and #UK shape policy. The Gaza genocide would not have reached this scale without Western media censorship of what’s really happening there, and it’s getting worse by the day. Corporations and academia don’t fear public opinion. Surveys consistently show majorities in these countries oppose their governments’ support for Israel. So who is the BBC so afraid of and why?
