USA has been a shithole country for a LONG time. This is fucking ghastly. Now the killings will begin in earnest. I'll be quite surprised if I see another spring on this planet.
Counterinsurgency against U.S. social movements has evolved since the 1960s. What was once the exclusive domain of state agencies has now been privatized. This is seen perhaps most clearly in the ongoing campaign to neutralize the Palestine movement.

@Emmanuel Florac Good luck with that. What happens when corporations only miniscule fractions of the population because of attitudes such as this? Will the unemployed now beg the governments to nationalize those corporations next?
Is it a wonder why corporations are beginning to take over governments now? Here's a thought, if indeed, employees want to own their corporations, then they should buy stock in those companies or start their own enterprises and see how they fare. Sometimes the unintended consequences of actions bring to bear, ones most fearful imaginings.
@Carter Braxton interestingly Trump has shown that the government still can make corporations move. Corporations are taking over because the governments have been captured by corporate interests... Democracy anyone ?
@Emmanuel Florac I don't like pure democracies and neither do you. In pure democracies, minority opinions and groups take a back seat to the will of the majority. I prefer, what is referred to as a representative republic, but I think I know what you mean when you say it.
Heifetz made it his iconic encore piece. Although I feel this recording isn't his best, was made a bit late in his career, and he maybe was a bit jaded about doing it yet again, you can still appreciate the mastery. When I was a kid I would lie under my mother's piano listening to Heifetz playing the Bach unaccompanied stuff on the old LP.
Listen about 25 seconds in to hear him play a melody line sounding as though that were the only thing he was playing despite all the stuff going on around it. Listen for variety of volume and tonal quality in different sections. IMO he distinguishes the effects better than anyone else before or since.
Heifetz' playing was unique in many ways. I have read interviews with famous violinists who said that when listening to recordings of other top violinists playing they were not really sure who it was but with Heifetz there was never any mistake.
Here is a more contemporary and perhaps more accessible version by the wonderful Hilary Hahn. Where Heifetz frequently played Bach at what most performers would consider high speed, Hahn's rendition is probably slower than average.
If you have 16:47 available do yourself a favor. It'll grow in you as it goes.

Italy: Anti-Anarchist Police Operation in Massarosa
At dawn on Wednesday, June 25 in Massarosa (in the province of Lucca), there was a search at the home of an anarchist, in connection with the investigation carried out by the Bologna prosecutorâs office for the burning of two railway police cars, which took place in Rimini on April 20, 2023 (see here). The action was carried out in solidarity with Chilean anarchists Monica and Francisco, who were soon to be tried for several bombings in Santiago, Chile, and with Alfredo Cospito, who had just ended a six-month hunger strike.
The charges are articles 423 (arson), 270 bis para. 1 (subversive association with the purpose of terrorism), 110 (participation in a crime or misdemeanor) and 635 (damage). Fifteen anarchists, from different regions of Italy, are under investigation. The next day, the police showed up, still at dawn, at the home of another anarchist for a search in connection with some tags that had appeared in the Massa court during one of the hearings of the Scripta Scelera trial under art. 639 of the Penal Code (slight damage and defilement).

do anything for you? (The numbers are for sound card 0, 1, and 2. It looks like, if anything, only 0 would be relevant for you, but you can try the others just in case.)
This command cleans the controls created by applications.
It was a bit of a long shot experiment to begin with. The commands I posted can be useful when an audio device suddenly stops working after it has been working initially during a session, but since your problem is most likely about your device not being recognized at any time, it's not too surprising that they don't do much. Just worth the try.
It is probably due to this change in the Linux kernel. That broke analogue microphone inputs on lots of systems. After that change, there were quite a few additional patches fixing those problems on individual systems (e.g. this one), but there are still lots of broken setups around. I have no idea what the original change was about exactly. It appears to have broken more things than it has fixed, but what do I know.
Yes. Apparently the issue happens with both internal mics and mic connectors where you attach your own mic. The seconds link I provided points to a fix for a specific laptop that fixes a non-working internal mic.
No, it is not dumb. My second link was just an example to a fix of one particular laptop where this issue occurred. I mentioned all this just to point to the issue that might be causing your problem. I'm afraid this probably does not fix it for you. Maybe it has been fixed with a more recent kernel. You could check which version you are running (by running uname -a from a terminal) and maybe update to a newer one if your distro allows that. Alternatively you could downgrade the kernel to a version before this issue was introduced (a 6.10 kernel should work okay). Of course downgrading should only be a stop-gap solution.
I'm trying to see if maybe i've done something where I have pipewire, pulseaudio, wireplumber all set up at the same time? I also don't really understand the difference between them
Okay, so this is one of Asus's consumer models that fits in the "Windowstop" category, meaning a lot of the hardware is going to be windows-only for various reasons.
It's got an ALC272 which IS supported, but that doesn't mean the microphone will be, especially if it's on the USB bus for whatever reason.
Couple questions:
1) Do other microphones work, just not internal? 2) Does your volume control work as expected 3) Does the webcam work, and does the internal microphone work only when the webcam is engaged? 4) What do apps like Discord or Zoom detect as available for your inputs?
As a test, install pavucontrol and qasmixer. Open pavucontrol, and check ALL the input settings (there are many combos). If nothing there shows activity, launch qasmixer, select the 'hw' view on the right, then try selecting different mixers and see if one finally clicks.
If any of these are successful, your mic is detected, and your mixer settings are messed up so it's not being enabled as an input sink.
If none of these work, you're going to have to dig restart, then run sudo dmesg and grep through looking for information regarding audio devices, or similar errors to see if it can't detect it.
From the product specs, it looks like it might have Harmon Kardon speakers, which may also tie into the microphone, and that's going to be problematic if it's a USB device for a number of reasons I won't dive into. Overall, this model just seems to be problematic from digging around. Example: reddit.com/r/ASUS/comments/160âŠ
when i go on zoom or discord there is no available inputs
the internal mic used to work but then I had to do some update and now its not.
Is there a chance that there is some config file that is blocking something? like i made some kind of setting in a config file that is making this happen?

Dumb question: do you have a key on your keyboard that disables the microphone? I don't have my laptop in front of me, but I know there's a key that disables the trackpad and another that disables the camera. I realized that I'd accidentally hit those by going through something similar to this.
You definitely seem to have what looks to be the right audio device getting detected.
The device that is "unplugged" should be the 3.5mm jack on your laptop (if you have one) not the internal mic.
My first guess is that your audio device is in the wrong mode. If it is currently set to something like "stereo output" change it to "stereo output+mono input" or "stereo duplex" from pavucontrol or audio settings.
Audio devices can have multiple modes or "profiles" that determine what they do.
For my headset I have:
For my internal sound card I have:
If I set my headset to one of the options that doesn't have "+ Mono Input" the mic stops working and doesn't even show up in settings and apps anymore. Same if I use the "Stereo Output" mode on my internal sound card. They must be set to a mode with both output and input enabled to work.
I can see this from "Sound" in my KDE settings, but you can also configure this in the "Configuration" tab of pavucontrol.
