An investigation by The Guardian revealed that the Israeli military used a powerful 500-pound bomb, likely an MK-82, in its attack on Al-Baqa café by the #Gaza seaside.
This bomb, caused a massive explosion and scattered shrapnel over a wide area, leaving a large crater at the site. The use of such a weapon may amount to a war crime.

The KMP Tunu Pratama Jaya sank almost half an hour after leaving East Java province's Banyuwangi port on its way to Bali late on Wednesday, the agency said on Thursday.
Mads Gilbert, an emergency medicine doctor who has spent extensive time working in Gaza, says the Gaza Health Foundation (GHF) distribution centres are part of the Israeli occupation forces and the Israeli government plan to ethnically cleanse and to fulfil their goal of genocide in Gaza.
“The distribution organisation is aimed at using food as bait to attract starving people, to terrorise them and to kill them. The shooting of people in food lines is a war crime.”

As the Linux world increasingly moves towards adopting Wayland in place of X11, there is a serious risk that a third of a century's worth of FOSS desktops and windowing environments would get dropped and left behind. Wayback could prevent that happening, and retain the diversity of choice in GUIs while modernizing the tools upon which they run.
Why do I feel like narrowing down the options would not be that bad? The whole world of Linux is, IMO, in dire need of consolidation behind tried and tested, universally accepted technologies instead of endless number of choices for specific tastes. That is at least the case if Linux aims for desktops (like it now very much should and could with all the Win 11 mess).
There really can’t be half a dozen or more alternatives for any particular task. Two desktop environments for example has to be enough for 99% of users, same with package management systems etc. Otherwise the newbie user will only get scared and confused, or not be able to easily find support relevant to their ”version” of Linux.
Man, we really need to make "The ~~Church~~ Cathedral and the Bazaar" required reading.
You clearly have missed the entire point of Linux, which is the freedom to do with your machine as you like. The endless number of choices for specific tastes is the result of people having the choice to write their own thing.
When consolidation happens, when people say "make my choice for me, I can't make decisions" we end up with super constrained setups like MacOS, Windows 11 and stupid Gnome the way it is now; no choice, do it our way or not at all.
And the answer is still freedom. It's obvious in the plugins and addons for gnome that get it to do basic customizing you find in, say xfce as a toggle in the settings. You find it in the myriad of softwares written for windows and mac that let the user do what they want to do.
And I will likely not be the first to point out to you Linux doesn't "aim for desktops", linux isn't an organization the way ms and apple are. And it likely never will be.
Newbies will be scared and confused no matter what's in front of them.
Why do I feel like narrowing down the options would not be that bad?
Perhaps because you miss Microsoft or Apple? In a rather misdirected way?
Half the point is there are multiple ways to do things - and mind, Windows is like that too (you can get to some settings though the new Control Panel, the old Control Panel, the Regedit, the Powershell...). Just about the only thing in Windows you are forced only one vision of is the desktop itself, but as soon as you double-click an icon, all bets are off.
Also if what you want is getting behind "tried and tested, universally accepted technologies"... that's what sysvinit, ALSA, X11 and automake / build-essentials; no need for systemd, Pulseaudio, Wayland and Snaps. Pulseaudio was basically a stillborn deformed baby whereas I've never seen ALSA fail since 2002 (to the point even today I have to "fix" Flatpak not having audio on Pipewire unless Pulseaudio sits behind it by just seating both of them behind ALSA). I don't even have to begin on Wayland, it started as just vaporware; Systemd is largely an attempt to microsoft-ize Linux system management; and Snaps make me want to snap.
As for newbies... others have addressed the point but honestly, if someone gets scared and whiny at the "choose your starter" screen of the game, they're not gonna last any in a Pokémon game nor would I want them around whining about things they couldn't even be bothered to be here for.
oh i remember this. it was that guy who thought he could fix xorg by himself, and ended up breaking it further. then accused gnome of being "dei" when they kicked him out lol
We, the undersigned, call on the UK Home Secretary to urgently proscribe the “Israel Defence Forces (IDF)” as a terrorist organisation, under the Terrorism Act 2000. We believe their actions meet this definition and that they pose a threat to the safety and security of innocent civillians.
The "IDF" has repeatedly carried out large-scale, deliberate acts of violence against civilians in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, in order to pursue political and territorial goals.

While waiting to enter Gaza on a medical aid mission, an American doctor watched Israeli security forces confiscate the cans of powdered baby formula packed in his luggage. The vital product is desperately lacking in the Palestinian enclave, where about 50 children have died of hunger since March.
Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian Territories, has called on countries to impose a full arms embargo as well as cut off trade and financial ties with Israel, which she alleged is waging a genocidal campaign in Gaza.
“Israel is responsible for one of the cruellest genocides in modern history,” Albanese said in a speech to the UN Human Rights Council.
Un biais cognitif, c’est comme un piège dans notre tête. C’est quand notre cerveau fait une erreur sans qu’on s’en rende compte. Il croit qu’il pense bien, mais en fait, il se trompe un peu. C’est comme porter des lunettes qui changent un peu la réalité : on voit les choses d’une façon spéciale, mais pas toujours juste
🧃 1. Biais de confirmation
C’est quand tu penses qu’une chose est vraie, et tu cherches seulement ce qui te donne raison. 📌 Exemple : Tu dis : “Le jus de pomme, c’est le meilleur !” Alors tu écoutes seulement les copains qui disent “Oui, moi aussi j’adore !” Mais tu ignores ceux qui préfèrent le jus d’orange.
⸻
🧒 2. Effet de groupe (ou biais de conformité)
C’est quand tu fais comme tout le monde, même si ce n’est pas ce que tu veux vraiment. 📌 Exemple : Tu veux dessiner un chien, mais tous les autres dessinent des chats. Alors tu dessines un chat aussi, juste pour être comme eux.
⸻
🍭 3. Biais d’ancrage
C’est quand la première chose qu’on te dit influence ce que tu crois, même si ce n’est pas logique. 📌 Exemple : On te dit : “Ce bonbon coûte 10 dinars !” Puis on te dit : “Mais je te le fais à 5 dinars, c’est une super affaire !” Tu crois que c’est pas cher… alors qu’un bonbon de 5 dinars, c’est déjà beaucoup !

🧠 En résumé :
Les biais cognitifs, ce sont des façons bizarres ou trompeuses de penser. Ils arrivent à tout le monde, même aux grands ! Mais quand on les connaît, on peut mieux réfléchir.

« Mes amis Notre cerveau reçoit beaucoup d’informations au quotidien et ne conserve que celles que nous estimons utiles. Sinon, il serait débordé. Cette caractéristique nous rappelle que l’apprentissage doit être conscient. Pour retenir une information, nous devons choisir de la retenir. Nous devons nous investir.

On July 3, 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg reached its climax, with 140,000 troops facing each other on the battlefield. From Culp’s Hill to the fields south of town, Day 3’s battles—culminating in Pickett’s Charge—produced over 15,000 casualties, deciding the battle’s outcome. Lee’s Confederates staked everything on breaking Meade’s Union line, while the Army of the Potomac fought to hold the high ground.
At dawn on July 3rd, Meade’s 85,000 Union troops fortified their fishhook line along Cemetery Hill, Culp’s Hill, and Cemetery Ridge, bolstered by II, III, and XII Corps. Meade anticipated a Confederate attack, focusing on defense. Lee, with 65,000 men, held Seminary Ridge and Gettysburg, his army battered but resolute.
Frustrated by Day 2’s failures, Lee planned a massive assault on the Union center, led by Longstreet, with Pickett’s fresh division, while Ewell renewed attacks on Culp’s Hill and Stuart’s cavalry probed the Union lines to the rear. Both commanders braced for a decisive confrontation under the sweltering July heat.
At 4:00 AM, Union XII Corps, under Brig. Gen. George S. Greene, launched a counterattack to reclaim Culp’s Hill trenches lost to Johnson’s Confederates on July 2nd.
Over 10,000 Union troops, backed by artillery, blasted Ewell’s brigades—Steuart’s and Daniel’s—in a seven-hour slugfest. By 11:00 AM, relentless Union assaults, led by regiments like the 137th New York, drove the Confederates off the hill, securing the Union right. The fighting, marked by heavy musketry and cannon fire, cost over 2,000 casualties, ending Lee’s hopes of turning Meade’s flank and shifting his focus to the Union center.
Around noon, Confederate cavalry under Maj. Gen. J.E.B. Stuart, 6,000 strong, clashed with Union cavalry under Brig. Gen. David M. Gregg east of Gettysburg at Rummel’s Farm. Lee aimed to disrupt Union lines, but Gregg’s 5,000 troopers, including Custer’s brigade, stood firm. Custer rallied the 1st Michigan, shouting, “Come on, you Wolverines!”
After hours of mounted and dismounted fighting, and about 500 casualties, Stuart’s advance was halted. Securing Meade’s rear and foiling the Confederate flanking maneuver.
Late on July 3, Union cavalry under Brig. Gen. Elon Farnsworth, part of Kilpatrick’s division, launched a doomed charge against Longstreet’s right flank south of Big Round Top. Ordered to disrupt Confederate lines, Farnsworth’s 300 troopers faced Law’s infantry and artillery across rocky terrain.
Around 5:00 PM, the 1st Vermont and others charged, only to be cut down by rifle volleys and canister fire. Farnsworth fell, and his brigade lost over 100 men in minutes. The futile attack, criticized as reckless, had little impact but highlighted the day’s relentless violence.
At 1:00 PM, 150 Confederate cannons, stretching along Seminary Ridge, unleashed a thunderous two-hour bombardment on the Union center at Cemetery Ridge. The barrage, meant to soften Meade’s line, sent shells screaming into II Corps’ positions under Maj. Gen. Winfield S. Hancock. Eighty Union guns, led by Col. Freeman McGilvery, replied, cloaking the field in smoke. Despite the deafening roar, Union troops, sheltered behind stone walls and earthworks, suffered minimal losses.
The artillery duel, one of the war’s largest, set the stage for Lee’s climactic assault, as both sides braced for the decisive moment, Pickett’s Charge.
At 3:00 PM, 12,500 Confederates—Pickett’s, Pettigrew’s, and Trimble’s divisions—emerged from Seminary Ridge for Pickett’s Charge. Advancing a mile across open fields, they faced a storm of Union artillery from Cemetery Ridge, led by Lt. Alonzo Cushing’s battery.
Hancock’s II Corps, including the 69th Pennsylvania and 1st Minnesota, unleashed devastating rifle volleys. Pickett’s Virginians, with Armistead’s brigade, breached the Angle’s stone wall, but Union counterattacks, led by Col. George Stannard’s Vermonters, crushed the assault. Over 6,000 Confederates fell, including Armistead, in a catastrophic defeat.
Day 3’s battles cemented Union victory. Culp’s Hill’s recapture secured the right, while cavalry fights east and south, led by Custer and Gregg, blocked the Confederate threats. Pickett’s Charge, a disastrous failure, cost Lee 6,000 men, with total Day 3 casualties nearing 15,000—8,000 Confederate, 7,000 Union. Meade’s line held firm. Lee’s dream of victory collapsed, forcing a retreat. The Union, bloodied but triumphant, claimed the field, setting the stage for the war’s turning point.
Lee’s army, with 28,000 losses, would retreat the next day, July 4th. Meade, with 23,000 casualties, did not pursue, sparking debate. Critics, including Lincoln, argued he missed a chance to crush Lee. Defenders cite Meade’s exhausted troops, low supplies, and Lee’s still-formidable army, arguing caution preserved the victory.
Gettysburg shifted the war’s tide, but Meade’s restraint, praised by some and scorned by others, left the Confederacy’s in tact dragging the war on for two more years.
