Supreme Court guts judges power to stop #Trump nationwide

In an alarming 6–3 ruling, the Supreme Court just made it harder for #federal judges to issue nationwide injunctions, the very tool often used to stop unconstitutional executive actions in their tracks.

This comes as Trump pushes to end birthright #citizenship, and now, lower courts may no longer be able to block such moves across the #country. It’s a massive shift in power toward the #presidency...

The first problem, which might seem small, is in how the company handles very basic stuff, like security certificates.

Manjaro has let their certificates expire 4 times now. It might seem like a very small issue, but it's extremely basic. Renewing certificates is extremely easy, and can be automated. Manjaro's inability to anticipate this or automate it isn't a good sign in terms of how seriously they take their security.

Manjaro also has the habit of trying to release things that aren't ready, without checking with the upstream devs first. One example is with the Asahi Linux project, where Manjaro decided that having Apple Silicon support early would be cool, and shipped a broken kernel.

fosstodon.org/web/@calebccff/1…

reddit.com/r/linux/comments/xt…

This is what led to the "don't ship it" manifesto from various developers, and probably what led the Bottles developer to also ask distros to not repackage their software without talking to them first.

dont-ship.it/

usebottles.com/blog/an-open-le…

Another problem that arose was the use of the AUR in Manjaro. Except the AUR doesn't really work well on Manjaro. Because the AUR assumes you're using the latest Arch software, with the latest versions Arch releases. Which Manjaro doesn't, because they hold back packages for testing. Which means that installing stuff from the AUR can seriously break your Manjaro system if you're not careful.

Manjaro's AUR helper had a bug in it, that sent thousands of requests to the AUR's servers for each Manjaro user. This resulted in an involuntary DDOS attack, short for distributed denial of service

reddit.com/r/linux/comments/q8…

gitlab.manjaro.org/application…

And then there are a few other issues. The project lead wanted to buy a new laptop using Manjaro funds, for about 2000€. The treasurer refused the expense, because it went against Manjaro's policy.

This led to an argument with the project lead, and surfaced other expenses that hadn't been discussed according to Manjaro's Policy, and led the treasurer to leave the company, leaving the project lead in full control of all the community funds.

web.archive.org/web/2020080704…

Then Manjaro announced that they would be shipping SoftMaker office by default instead of LibreOffice. Replacing an open source component with a proprietary one isn't really something you'd expect from a Linux distribution.

web.archive.org/web/2019121018…

Manjaro has also often been accused of not contributing to upstream, especially on the mobile front. Someone involved in the Pine64 community points out that the fact that most mobile Pine64 projects are starting to falter is due to the fact that only Manjaro is a supported distribution for the Pinephone, where before there were a myriad of community editions, and that Manjaro doesn't really contribute to supporting the hardware.

In March 2025, militants launched coordinated attacks on Alawite communities such as Tartous and Latakia. The bombings left dozens dead and sent a chill through Christian towns along the coast. Many saw it as a prelude – a test run by extremists probing the strength of Syria’s new government, led by Ahmed al-Sharaa. Yet after Sunday’s bombing, instead of condemning it as a targeted attack on Christians, the UN’s special envoy for Syria, Geir Pederson, characterised it as a result of general instability, and even called for ‘restraint’ from all parties.

To be clear, what we are witnessing is the systematic targeting of nearly all religious minorities in Syria – Christians, Druze, Ismailis, Yazidis, Alawites and Shiites – by violent Islamist factions. To call it ‘sectarian violence’ is to imply mutuality where there is none. Minority victims are not aggressors. They are certainly not the ones who need to show ‘restraint’.

There are hundreds of gospels, and they keep finding them. And the gospels are basically fan fiction about this #Jesus character. They didn't have TVs, but fandoms are literally older than time. They turn into religions. But according to many of the gospels, Jesus wasn't a nice guy and he'd throw fits if he didn't get his way.

Yet another example on why the U.S. is in such a mess. I hear all the complaints about Democrat's ineptitude to form a real opposition and how Republican policies gradually dismantled civil and social rights over the last 40 years without ever being corrected by democratic Administrations.

The truth is that America is governed by two conservative parties. One centre-right/mainstream right and the other mainstream-right/extreme-right.

There's no such thing like a left party in the U.S.

I'm not a champion for "diversity", but I think there are more causes for our problems than the negative consequences of diversity. I also agree that we are not all the same.

Some responsibility is ours.

Some is on other forces that seek to subjugate people, not just white people.

The premise is that just having a nearly homogenious white society will not fix all the problems. Bad ideas that white people have, or are tricked into having, have bad consequences.

It is one of the reasons that I believe economic action does make things better.

Ahmed Abu Sabha, a doctor at #Nasser hospital, described being held for a week in detention, where, he said, muzzled dogs were set upon him and his hand was broken by an Israeli soldier.

His account closely matches those of two other medics who wanted to remain anonymous for fear of reprisals."

The Ministry of Health renews its call for the international community and its #UN and #HumanRights institutions to stop the brutal Israeli aggression against the #Gaza Strip, protect the health system and its staff, and hold the "israeli" enemy accountable for the crimes of #genocide against our people and its deliberate killing of health and humanitarian workers.

We met healthcare personnel in #Gaza who worked at #hospitals that had been raided and destroyed by #Israel. Many of these colleagues of ours were taken by Israel during the attacks.They all told us a slightly different version of the same story: in captivity they were barely fed, continuously physically and psychologically abused, and finally dumped naked on the side of a road.Many told us they were subjected to mock executions and other forms of mistreatment and torture.Far too many of our healthcare colleagues told us they were simply waiting to die.

The 99 signatories to this letter spent a combined 254 weeks inside Gaza’s largest hospitals and clinics. We wish to be absolutely clear: not once did any of us see any type of #Palestinian militant activity in any of Gaza’s hospitals or other #healthcare facilities.

We urge you to see that Israel has systematically and deliberately devastated Gaza’s entire healthcare system, and that Israel has targeted our colleagues in Gaza for #torture, disappearance, and murder.
An astonishingly high % of our surgical incisions became infected from the combination of malnutrition, impossible operating conditions, lack of basic sanitation supplies such as soap, and lack of surgical supplies and medications, including antibiotics.

Israel bombarded the Kamal Adwan hospital late on 21 November, injuring six of its medical staff, including some who were left in critical condition. The hospital’s main generator was destroyed, and its water tanks were punctured. Many of the hospital’s other essential equipment have been damaged or destroyed by #Israel.

An Israeli quadcopter also targeted medical staff at Al-Awda Hospital in northern #Gaza early on Friday.

Prior to Dr. Hussam Abu Safia's injury, he revealed that Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of the last few semi-functional hospitals in the northern strip, has been targeted numerous times – detailing each attack on the facility.

While Israel often states that #Palestinian armed groups use such facilities for military purposes, Turk said Israel has not backed up those claims with evidence.

“Israel has not provided sufficient information to substantiate many of these claims, which are often vague and broad. In some cases they appear to be contradicted by publicly available information,” Turk said in remarks to the United Nations Security Council.

Turk called for an independent investigation to probe Israel’s attacks on hospitals and the allegations that #Hamas is using those facilities for military purposes.

According to Abu Salmiya, there are 20,000 patients and wounded #Palestinians in #Gaza in need of treatment, of whom 12,000 are in dire conditions. “Nearly 6,000 people wounded by the war need urgent treatment in facilities abroad. These include roughly 4,000 amputees, and more than 2,000 cases sustaining serious injuries to their backbone and their spinal cord, resulting in crippling and paralysis,” he said.

“We’re losing patients with conditions that we could’ve easily handled if not for the war. We’ve lost nearly 25 percent of our dialysis patients. Infants with heart conditions are dying on a daily basis in incubators because we cannot operate on them. As many as 20 patients of curable illnesses die every day in front of helpless staff,” noted Abu Salmiya.
The stakes are high for patients and their families, who have endured immense suffering during the 15-month war. “Our #children are dying in front of our eyes,” Shadia said. “We are powerless because our #medical system is overwhelmed. The #ceasefire and #Rafah ’s reopening are our only hope.”

Since October 2023, Gaza's healthcare system has been under relentless attack, with medical workers becoming primary targets. Hospitals are barely functioning, with critical resources and specialists in short supply. Many ambulances have been struck and destroyed and humanitarian physicians trying to enter Gaza have faced harassment and restriction at the border, often fearing for their safety.

The World Health Organisation #WHO has recorded over 600 attacks on #healthcare facilities in #Gaza and the killing of more than 1,000 medical workers, with no accountability. In one case, the Israeli military raided Kamal Adwan Hospital, detaining staff and setting fire to the building.

"Despite these documented abuses and the international community calling for thorough investigations, to this day, not a single person has been charged for any crime against #hospitals in the enclave."

#IsraelTerroristState has blown up #Gaza’s only specialised cancer treatment hospital, as well as an adjacent medical school, drawing condemnation for again targeting a medical facility, which is banned under international humanitarian law.

Friday’s explosion flattened central Gaza’s Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital, which had already been severely damaged by Israeli air strikes since October 2023.

The third floor of the hospital was previously hit in an Israeli air strike on October 30, 2023.

Fuel shortages forced the hospital to shut down on November 1, 2023, with the #UN warning the lives of 70 patients were at risk. It later emerged that four patients died at the hospital due to a lack of medical care.

By any legal definition this is ANOTHER war crime. Global leaders took no actions against #IsraelTerroristState and now the risk for foreign workers increased dramatically.

The reality: "The American volunteers will be the first ones to tell you that their lives are not any more valuable than their Palestinian colleagues.

#israel is telling us that it does not matter whether you are a humanitarian or not. You will be targeted. Even if you dare help the Palestinians, you will be targeted! You will targeted, killed and there is nothing that your government will do about it.

On March 30, the first day of Eid al-Fitr, they went back and uncovered 14 more bodies buried in the sand in a mass grave. All of them were still dressed in their uniforms and wearing gloves. Among them were Mohammad and his colleagues Mustafa Khafaja, Ezzedine Sha’at, Saleh Moammar, Rifaat Radwan, Ashraf Abu Labda, Mohammad al-Hila, and Raed al-Sharif.

The killing of these paramedics is not an isolated incident. #Israel has been systematically targeting medical and rescue workers as part of its genocidal war – a war against life itself in Gaza. Only in Gaza, medical uniforms and ambulances do not offer protection, which international law affords. Only in Gaza, medical uniforms and ambulances can mark people as targets for execution.

Despite the Israeli army’s attempt to cover up its crime by burying it in the sand, evidence speaks for what happened. A statement released by the Palestinian Ministry of Health on March 30 said the Israeli forces carried out an execution and that some of the victims were handcuffed and had injuries to the head and chest. The chief of the #UN humanitarian affairs office in Palestine said the paramedics and first responders were killed “one by one”.

The #Gaza paramedic killings: a visual timeline

23 March
At 4.20am, a Red Crescent ambulance on its way to collect people injured by an airstrike in #Rafah comes under Israeli fire in Hashashin. Two paramedics are killed.
A survivor, Munther Abed, is detained and interrogated. A few hours later, a convoy including ambulances, a fire truck, health ministry vehicles and a #UN car is dispatched to recover the bodies of the two paramedics. It also comes under fire. Two #health ministry vehicles drive away but contact is lost with the rest of the convoy. Two ambulances sent from Rafah also disappear.

30 March
Ocha officials and Red Crescent workers return to the site and find the bodies of eight #RedCrescent workers, the five other civil defence responders and one UN staff member buried in a mass grave. A ninth Red Crescent worker remains unaccounted for.

"It is not the first time the Israeli army has targeted al-Ahli Hospital; it was bombed on October 17, 2023, in a massacre that killed over 400 displaced people taking shelter in the hospital’s crowded courtyard. At the time, directly bombing hospitals was still taboo, so the Israeli army denied targeting the hospital, instead claiming, without evidence, that an allegedly misfired Islamic Jihad rocket had struck the hospital.

In the most recent strike on al-Ahli, the Israeli army this time admitted targeting the hospital but claimed to have been attacking a Hamas command-and-control center. The Israeli army made similar claims in 2023 and 2024 about al-Shifa Hospital in #Gaza City. After the two invasions of #alShifa in November 2023 and March 2024, no evidence could be provided to substantiate these claims.

The Israeli army has not so far provided any evidence of a Hamas command center in #alAhli Arab Hospital."

Another day of massive #warcrimes against health sector of Gaza. Leaders of international community will not condemn and most important will not take action against israeli entity.

Hours after targeting Nasser Hospital and assassinating journalist Hassan Eslaih, the Israeli occupation army launched a series of airstrikes targeting the European #Hospital in #KhanYounis, southern #Gaza Strip.

British surgeon Tom Potokar, who was inside Gaza’s European Hospital when Israel launched an attack on it, documents the aftermath of the strikes on the facility, stating that it is no longer possible to take patients to the operating theater due to the destruction.

Earlier today, Israeli occupation warplanes launched a series of airstrikes targeting the European Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, massacring 28 Palestinians and injuring dozens more, including journalists.

Also multiple injuries were reported in Israeli airstrike that targeted civil defense crew east of Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip.

During a press conference organized by the European Hospital, Dr. Imad Al-Hout, Director of the #Gaza European #Hospital, announced that the electrical and oxygen systems had suddenly stopped working, threatening the lives of patients and the injured inside the hospital.

He added that medical staff were unable to operate on the wounded from the renewed airstrikes and transfer them to Nasser Hospital.

The operating rooms were also completely out of service, and the hospital reported that several departments had been severely damaged and cracked.

While people start to look on malnourished and starving faces and bodies of Palestinians occupation continues the crime against health services.

"The Israeli military has ordered the forced evacuation of al-Awda Hospital in northern Gaza, the only remaining partially functioning hospital in the area, despite it being overwhelmed and operating under dire conditions amid the ongoing Israeli assault, the Ministry of Health said Thursday.

“Al-Awda is the only remaining partially functioning hospital in north Gaza,” Stephane Dujarric told reporters.

Between 1 and 22 May 2025, the World Health Organization (WHO) documented 29 Israeli attacks on #healthcare in the Gaza Strip, further disrupting access to health care and overburdening #hospitals that remain partially operational.

According to #WHO, at least 94 per cent of hospitals in the #Gaza Strip have been damaged or destroyed.

Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza has announced that Israeli forces detonated Noura Al Kaabi Kidney Dialysis Center, the only dialysis hospital in northern #Gaza. The center served patients suffering from kidney failure across the region.

“This attack is a death sentence for hundreds of patients,” the ministry said in a press statement. “The destruction puts their health at risk of catastrophic and irreversible collapse.”

Health officials stated that Israel is following a dangerous and systematic policy aimed at emptying northern Gaza of hospitals and specialized care centers.

Since October 2023, Israeli forces have repeatedly targeted Gaza’s healthcare system. Hospitals, ambulances, maternity wards, and emergency departments have been bombed or shut down. Patients and doctors are overwhelmed, exhausted, and left without basic medical supplies.

since October 2023, Israeli forces have carried out 720 attacks on #healthcare infrastructure in #Gaza. As a result, only 61 out of 157 health facilities remain operational. These include 13 public facilities, seven operated by #UNRWA, 44 run by local civil society organizations, and 32 affiliated with international organizations, most of which are only capable of providing basic primary healthcare and limited surgical services.
Israeli forces have systematically targeted the core of Gaza’s healthcare system, effectively dismantling the entire medical network in the Northern Gaza Governorate.
Al Mezan stresses that Israel’s deliberate and sustained attacks on Gaza’s healthcare infrastructure are not only deepening the humanitarian catastrophe but are part of its ongoing genocidal campaign. These acts are not isolated incidents but reflect a systematic policy aimed at dismantling life-sustaining systems and denying Palestinians access to essential services.

Under a total Israeli blockade and relentless bombardment, Gaza’s healthcare system is devastated. This week, the last dialysis machines at Al-Shifa Medical Complex were forced to shut down. With no fuel left to power them, hundreds of patients now face death, not from injury, but from deliberate deprivation.

According to health officials, more than 400 dialysis patients, nearly 40% of Gaza’s dialysis community, have already died since the war began. They were not killed in airstrikes; they were killed by "Israel's" policy, by blockade, by the refusal to allow fuel through the gates.

The World Health Organization has raised urgent alarms, highlighting the complete exhaustion of kidney medication supplies and an acute shortage of dialysis equipment. Yet the borders remain sealed, the fuel remains blocked, and the machines remain off.

Last month, Israeli occupation forces destroyed the Noura al-Kaabi dialysis center in northern #Gaza. The facility was affiliated with the Indonesian Hospital, located in the northern part of the Strip, which has been repeatedly besieged by Israeli forces who have opened fire on anyone moving within its grounds.

An Israeli airstrike has killed one of Gaza’s most senior doctors in a “catastrophic” loss to the already decimated healthcare system. A number of family members were reported to have been killed alongside him.

Dr Marwan al-Sultan, a renowned and highly experienced cardiologist and director of the Indonesian hospital in the #Gaza Strip, is the 70th #healthcare worker to be killed by Israeli attacks in the last 50 days, according to Healthcare Workers Watch (HWW), a Palestinian medical organisation.

“This is part of a much longer and systematic atrocious targeting of healthcare workers sanctioned by impunity. This is a tragic loss of life, but also an obliteration of their decades of lifesaving medical expertise and care at a time when the situation facing Palestinian civilians is unfathomably catastrophic,” Alser added.

“He was a prominent scholar and one of the two remaining cardiologists left in Gaza. Thousands of heart patients will suffer as a result of his killing. His only fault was that he was a doctor. We have no option but to be steadfast, but the sense of loss is devastating.”

Gaza’s Health Ministry reports that at least 360 medical personnel have been arrested by Israel inside the enclave since the start of the war and those detained are “living in tragic and harsh conditions”.

Among the detainees are doctors, further depriving thousands of wounded Palestinians of medical care, the ministry said in a statement.

It called for urgent international intervention “to criminalise the occupation’s practices against imprisoned medical staff and to pressure for their release”.

The Israeli army has killed at least 1,400 healthcare and medical workers across Gaza since the start of the war in October 2023, according to the ministry.

Israeli special forces have abducted Dr Marwan al-Hams, director of Abu Youssef al-Najjar Hospital and spokesperson for the Palestinian health ministry in Gaza, outside the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) field hospital in the southern part of the enclave.

The Palestinian health ministry said on Monday that Hams, who also oversees field hospitals in the #Gaza Strip, was on his way to visit the #ICRC facility in northern Rafah when undercover Israeli soldiers opened fire, killing one person and wounding another civilian, before capturing him.

The person killed was a local journalist who had been conducting an interview with al-Hams at the time of the attack.

"This cowardly act targeted one of the most prominent humanitarian and medical voices who has conveyed to the world the pain of starving children, the suffering of wounded patients deprived of medication, and the cries of mothers at hospital gates," the ministry said in a statement.

Israeli society is deeply rotten. Because of that (and not because of governments) all the people of the world with some rationality believe that Israel must be dissolved and another entity to take its place from the river to the sea. Jewish israelis believe in some superiority given by a God and they defend this non-sense "theory" with heavy guns given by #US, #Germany, #UK, #France, #Italy and the political cover of Arab states.

🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: A poll conducted by the Israel #Democracy Institute between June 15 and 17 reveals that the majority of Jews in #Israel believe Iranian civilian lives hold no value in the context of the Israeli aggression against Iran

When asked to what extent Israel should take the 'sufferings of the #Iranian civilian population' into account, almost three-quarters of #Jewish Israelis (73%) said 'not at all or to a fairly small extent.'

Similar polls have been conducted in the past regarding military operations in #Gaza and #Lebanon, with the majority of Israelis supporting genocide and ethnic cleansing, and a significant portion believing that 'Amalek should be erased' and that 'all inhabitants of an enemy city should be killed, including women and children.'

An Israeli court has extended the detention of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in #Gaza, for six months. The ruling, issued Tuesday by the Be’er Sheva Court, classifies him as an “unlawful combatant”, a term that Israel has been extensively using to describe abductees from Gaza.

Israeli forces kidnapped Dr. Abu Safiya in December 2024 after storming Kamal Adwan Hospital. Soldiers forced him out at gunpoint, destroying the hospital and putting it out of service.

His family reports that he has suffered severe torture and starvation in Israeli prisons. A lawyer who recently visited him confirmed this.

Dr. Abu Safiya paid a personal price for his dedication. On October 26, 2024, Israeli forces killed his son, Ibrahim, during a raid on the hospital. Earlier, he was injured in an Israeli airstrike but refused to leave his patients.

Lawyer of Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, currently imprisoned by Israel, wrote:

Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya is not okay.
My last visit to him was on July 9, 2025.
He has lost over 40 kilograms — more than one-third of his body weight.
At the time of his arrest, he weighed 100 kg — today, he weighs no more than 60 kg.

On June 24, 2025, he was severely beaten.
His room (Room 1, Section 24 – Ofer Prison) was specifically raided.
He was brutally assaulted in the chest area and sustained severe bruises to the face, head, back, and neck.
The beating lasted approximately 30 minutes.

Dr. Hossam requested medical care, proper testing, and to be examined by a cardiologist — but his request was denied.
He suffers from irregular heartbeat. His eyeglasses, which had recently been sent to him through his lawyer, were broken.

He is still wearing winter clothes while enduring starvation, torture, solitary confinement, and total deprivation — buried underground, with no exposure to sunlight.

Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, like all Palestinian detainees, is not okay.

This is how they get their crazy stories about comic book style underground bases under the hospitals.

Nothing actually in the hospitals is illegal. The half a dozen guns and misc junk fit easily in the exemptions in article 22 of the relevant 1949 Geneva convention.

Even a guy shooting at them from the hospital it is probably covered by Article 22, if they were approaching the hospital and he reasonably believed they might hurrt patients or staff. If that guy even ever existed in any of the cases they reported something like that. His actions were wildly counter productive. But, as far as I can tell, legal, and did not make the hospital a valid target.

Today was an awesome day at work. I managed to get a bit of time to completely year down this Lenovo X220 tablet, apply new thermal paste to the CPU, upgrade the RAM to 16GB DDR3, and replace the Seagate 500GB spinning rust drive with a 250GB WD Blue SSD. It's rocking Linux Mint 22.1 XFCE. Just finishing up by adding Krita, and some other software that might be useful on this neat machine. Have to pick up an eprom programmer some time so we can start flashing coreboot to some devices.

We upgraded the memory from 8GB to 16GB. One of the memory slots was not working, but got it working again after cleaning with a brush and rubbing alcohol. Some of the memory contacts in the slot must have had something stuck between them. Works great after cleaning.

We took out the bluetooth module, as my son does not plan on using that, so one less wireless device to worry about for power and security.

Redid thermal paste. Thorough cleaning.

Seems to be working much better now. It was not booting up at all right before this cleaning and working on and off for the past couple weeks. Hopefully this cleaning and service resolves that.

Audio Localization Gear Built On The Cheap


Most humans with two ears have a pretty good sense of directional hearing. However, you can build equipment to localize audio sources, too. That’s precisely what [Sam], [Ezra], and [Ari] did for their final project for the ECE4760 class at Cornell this past Spring. It’s an audio localizer!

The project is a real-time audio localizer built on a Raspberry Pi Pico. The Pico is hooked up to three MEMS microphones which are continuously sampled at a rate of 50 kHz thanks to the Pico’s nifty DMA features. Data from each microphone is streamed into a rolling buffer, with peaks triggering the software on the Pico to run correlations between channels to determine the time differences between the signal hitting each microphone. Based on this, it’s possible to estimate the location of the sound source relative to the three microphones.

The team goes into great deal on the project’s development, and does a grand job of explaining the mathematics and digital signal processing involved in this feat. Particularly nice is the heatmap output from the device which gives a clear visual indication of how the sound is being localized with the three microphones.

We’ve seen similar work before, too, like this project built to track down fireworks launches. Video after the break.
