Of Course Trump Doesn’t Want to Release the #EpsteinFiles

Not only was Trump intimately close to #JeffreyEpstein, but there is a wealth of reporting tying the #billionaire #pedophile to intelligence circles. Trump is once again protecting the #elites he claimed he would fight on the #campaign trail.

Hello, World!

I first learned Unix from NetBSD, moved on to running Linux myself in the 1990's along with FreeBSD and sometimes NetBSD. I'm also a former Solaris and OpenSolaris fan, and was an enthusiastic OS X user for a decade starting with 10.1.

These days my main machines are Fedora and recently NetBSD again. Work is programming microelectronics CAD software on RHEL.

I made this alt with the hope of following more of what's going on amongst BSD users, rather than just running a couple machines by myself.

It's not exactly retrocomputing but it kind of is. Someone has started a project to make an Apple Lisa-like UI that runs in the browser. It's not just a font/icon thing. The way you did things on Lisa was very different than how we do things nowadays. It was a document-centric not app-centric workflow. It's pretty neat and pretty faithful representation. At first I thought it was infinitemac.org project which runs Mac and NeXT emulators in the browser running the real operating systems. That too would be an interesting project for someone to explore. #RetroComputing #Apple #AppleLisa alpha.lisagui.com/

Correct. Address and significance here:

Howard Lutnik didn't go to work on 911. He was a chief exec at Cantor Fitzgerald at the time.

He's now the US commerce sec, a role previously filled in the first Trump presidency by Wilbur Ross, Director of Rothschild, LTD during the 1990 Trump bankruptcy bailout.

Lutnik, lower portion of the meme, is attending Rabbi Schneerson's annual ceremony.

Lutnik bought the house that Epstein used to use on East 71st Street (owned by Wexner). Wexner bought the mansion next door and moved Epstein there.


Federated Social Media with Topic-Based Following and Blocking?


I'm looking for a federated social media platform that allows for easy topic-based following and blocking, similar to how you can follow or block hashtags on Twitter. On Lemmy, you can follow communities, but there are so many that it becomes overwhelming. I want a platform where I can see or block everything related to a specific tag, and also view only the most popular posts about that topic, similar to how Lemmy communities work. Mastodon, for example, only shows the latest posts, which isn't ideal for trending content. I don't want a chat-like experience; I want to quickly see what's trending about a topic or what's trending in general, while being able to block a few specific topics. Ideally, I wouldn't have to spend hours curating a list of communities or followed users. Does anyone know of a platform that fits these criteria?
in reply to PumpkinDrama

On Lemmy, you might find it overwhelming by looking at the all communities feed and then blocking those you don't like. Instead subscribe to the ones you want and then just view the subscribe feed.

Personally, I use all to find more content and block communities I don't want. I then just jumpnjnto subscribed occasionally of there is too much junk.

It's a shame that there aren't finer controls, like to ramp up and down communities rather than just block or subscribe. Some communities, I wouldn't mind seeing their popular posts but I don't want to say the hordes of junk posts. Only option is to block.

Could someone help me setup local file sharing? [Fixed]


So I have things working for me at this point. I was never able to get Samba worling properly. My initial issue was not having a / at the end of my folder path in the Samba config file. After fixing that issue I was able to see the shared folder but was prompted to log in each time, which was an issue in my use case. I ended up abandoning Samba and setting up Jellyfin which has been a much smoother experience, but also is providing many more features. So, if you are looking to share media on your local network, my recommendation would be Jellyfin!

Thank you so much to everyone that commented and helped me a long. I hope I get to return the favor in some way.

Hello, I've been working towards fully migrating to linux, but this is one issue I'm having a hard time with. I have a couple of folders on a storage drive that I share on my local network to stream movies and TV, but I can't figure out how to do it in my Linux install. I'm running Linux Mint 22, have installed Samba, and have tried a few different walkthroughs with no success. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this set up?

Thanks for your time!

Before Trump changed the law, corporations had to pay a 35 percent tax rate on their income. Now, Trump's bill locked in the corporate tax rate at just 21 percent.

How does the bill make up the lost revenue? With cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, starving working families and stopping people from being able to see a doctor so that corporate giants can pocket billions more.

For me it´s just a late-stage us-imperial theater for the plebs.
We all know, this list will never be released, ever!

Still it is funny for an non-`merican to observe: The MAGA crusaders once marched for "truth"—until the "truth" got too close to their daddy and his friends. On the other side anti-MAGA crowd still thinks Trump is some demonic anomaly, not the latest product of a rotting empire. Just sayin´

But who knows, maybe the list will come out one day… in 200 years, for some nerdy historian or bored archivist to scroll through. 😁

Spain, Ireland and China to join more than 20 states to declare ‘concrete measures’ against Israel


More than 20 countries are convening in Bogota next week to declare “concrete measures against Israel’s violations of international law”, diplomats told Middle East Eye.

The “emergency summit” is due to be held on 15-16 July, co-hosted by the governments of Colombia and South Africa as co-chairs of The Hague Group, to coordinate diplomatic and legal action to counter what they describe as “a climate of impunity” enabled by Israel and its powerful allies.

The founding members of the group included Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal and South Africa.

States due to take part in the summit include Algeria, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Cuba, Djibouti, Honduras, Indonesia, Ireland, Lebanon, Malaysia, Namibia, Nicaragua, Oman, Portugal, Spain, Qatar, Turkey, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Uruguay, and Palestine.

US warns ICC member states to drop proceedings against Israel


The warning was direct, blunt and left no room for doubt. "We expect all ICC actions against the United States and our ally Israel – that is, all investigations and all arrest warrants – to be terminated," said Reed Rubinstein, legal adviser at the US State Department, before delegates of the 125 member states of the International Criminal Court (ICC) on Tuesday, July 8, at a meeting at United Nations headquarters in New York from July 7 to 9.

If the ICC arrest warrants for crimes against humanity and war crimes issued against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant on November 21, 2024, as well as ongoing investigations into crimes committed in the Gaza Strip and the settlement of Palestinian territory, are not dropped, "all options remain on the table," he declared.

The University of Pennsylvania did the right thing and changed its policy, but Newsom is stubborn as heck. With all the problems facing California (immigration, crime, drugs, homelessness, etc.) and a 12 billion budget deficit, Newsom and the Dems chose to pander to trans activists.

This didn't have to happen, and it's all on Newsom and the Democrats in Sacramento. They were given the chance to comply, but flat out refused to sign a resolution agreement.

"The suit comes just days after the California Interscholastic Federation and the state’s Department of Education declined to sign a resolution agreeing to comply with the U.S. Department of Education’s push to ban transgender athletes from women’s sports.

CIF and the state Department of Education sent letters to the U.S. Department of Education declining to sign a resolution agreement on Monday, saying that they disagreed with its Office of Civil Rights’ analysis. CIF and the state Education Department declined to comment, citing pending litigation."

New boss eyes my golf shorts, #hawaiianshirt with a cat, #sandals, and jokes "say, do we _have_ a dress code?"

"Eh. Think we do - employee manual hasn't been updated in at least a decade though, and noone has ever given me any grief, and I dance all over it in the summer. In any case, not only do I know that there ARE bodies, I know where they're buried and in most case I buried them to begin with. So if quibbling over dress code is a priority for this company we have way bigger problems."

Oklahoma's Dept of Ed will use right-wing propaganda outlet PragerU to create a test for determining eligibility to teach, measuring applicants' belief in "American exceptionalism" & acceptance of transphobic gender ideology: foxnews.com/politics/exclusive…
Surely other GOP states & Trump's DOE (using funding as leverage) will follow, making acceptance of far-right beliefs a requirement for teaching, just as it's become for hiring federal workers & allowing people from other countries to visit the US.

Steam sales are now over but i managed to snag a couple more games before the end of the sale.

Painkiller Black was awesome I heard the other games were ehh.. Doom Eternal I heard great things but you gotta block the the game from connecting to the internet because it forces you to setup a stupid bethesda account otherwise. I Remember chips challenge from the 1995 pack sold with Jezzball, pipe dream so I figured why not I'll get chips challenge 2 while it's cheap.
