Jerusalem Water Authority:
Last night, a group of Israeli settlers stormed the Ein Samia wells, causing widespread destruction and rendering the entire site inoperable. All systems have gone offline, resulting in a total loss of communication and control.
The Ein Samia wells are the only source of water for dozens of Palestinian villages and communities. The damage caused puts thousands of lives at risk and constitutes a deliberate attack on critical civilian infrastructure.

🔴 C’est une affaire que l’Elysée préférerait ne jamais voir ressurgir. Depuis huit ans, la justice enquête sur l’organisation d’une soirée qui s’est déroulée le 6 janvier 2016 à #LasVegas autour du ministre de l’Economie de l’époque, un certain Emmanuel #Macron. Le juge d’instruction, Serge Tournaire, a fini ses investigations et doit désormais décider s’il demande un procès pour les protagonistes de l’événement, dont l’ex-ministre du Travail Muriel #Pénicaud. Accusée de « complicité de favoritisme », celle-ci conteste sa mise en examen devant la chambre d’instruction.
Retour dix ans en arrière. En novembre 2015, les conseillers d’Emmanuel Macron cogitent sur un déplacement de leur champion au plus grand salon de l’innovation numérique au monde à Las Vegas. Une occasion pour lui d’incarner la start-up nation et de rencontrer de riches entrepreneurs alors qu’il s’apprête à créer son parti En Marche avec la présidentielle en ligne de mire. « Habituellement, les ministres se contentaient d’un petit pot, mais là les ambitions étaient plus fortes », observe un haut fonctionnaire de Bercy.
Infraction au Code des marchés publics
Afin de financer la soirée, le cabinet d’Emmanuel Macron se tourne vers l’agence publique Business France, alors dirigée par Muriel #Pénicaud et dotée d’un confortable budget de communication de 9 millions d’euros. Problème : l’entité va sous-traiter l’événement à l’agence de com’ #Havas Paris pour un total de 380 000 euros sans mettre d’autres sociétés en concurrence. Soit une infraction caractérisée au Code des marchés publics…
Une décennie plus tard, pas question pour Muriel Pénicaud de porter le chapeau. Face au juge en octobre 2023, elle a assuré que la soirée avait été entièrement pilotée par sa directrice de la communication Fabienne Bothy-Chesneau, « une cadre dirigeante avec une rémunération de 12 000 euros quand la mienne était de 13 000 euros », précise-t-elle. Avant de poursuivre : « Jamais jusqu’à début mars 2016, je n’ai su que la totalité était confiée à Havas. On me l’a caché sciemment. »
Des mails compromettants exhumés
Au fil de leur enquête, les policiers ont pourtant mis la main sur plusieurs mails qui montrent que l’ex-patronne de Business France avait un œil sur le bon déroulement de la soirée. Le 19 novembre 2015, elle indique à une conseillère d’Emmanuel Macron que « Business France prépare activement Las Vegas ». Le lendemain, après une réunion d’une heure et demie entre ses équipes et le cabinet du ministre, elle reçoit un premier canevas de la soirée avec la mention d’un budget prévisionnel de 300 000 euros.
De quoi prouver sa connaissance du coût de la soirée et de la nécessité de passer un appel d’offres avec mise en concurrence ? « Un budget de 300 000 euros ne veut pas dire une commande publique par Business France de 300 000 euros, il y a très souvent plusieurs cofinanceurs », argue-t-elle. Une version contestée par Fabienne Bothy-Chesneau, mise en examen pour « favoritisme », un mois plus tard devant le même juge : « Muriel Pénicaud a été informée que Havas s’occupait de tout et du budget. Et elle savait bien qu’il n’y avait pas eu d’appels d’offres. »
Pour se dédouaner, Muriel Pénicaud met en avant un audit réalisé après coup, à sa demande, par le cabinet EY qui la met hors de cause. Mais l’avocat de Fabienne Bothy-Chesneau pointe que les auteurs de l’audit n’ont jamais entendu sa cliente, qui avait quitté Business France entretemps, alors que les autres membres de la direction ont pu s’expliquer et… modifier le contenu du rapport d’audit. Pis, ils ont même pu explorer la boîte mail de Fabienne Bothy-Chesneau pour ajouter des éléments à charge. « Le rapport d’audit n’a pas été réalisé à la suite d’une enquête interne rigoureuse, objective et impartiale », tacle l’avocat dans une note.
Pression des conseillers d’Emmanuel Macron
Un point semble faire consensus : la soirée a été préparée dans l’urgence. Avec des conseillers d’Emmanuel Macron qui multiplient les doléances : refus d’une soirée exclusivement organisée par le Medef, demande d’un lieu plus central que l’année précédente, échange avec une star de la tech américaine, etc. En trois semaines, le budget prévisionnel bondit de quelque 150 000 euros. « Fais vite, il faut que le cabinet soit content », serinait Muriel Pénicaud à Fabienne Bothy-Chesneau selon ses dires.
Une précipitation qui a empêché le lancement d’un marché public en bonne et due forme ? « Il n’était matériellement pas possible d’organiser cet événement en respectant scrupuleusement les procédures d’achats, avance le responsable du contrôle interne de Business France face aux enquêteurs. Soit il aurait fallu savoir dire non, soit demander aux organismes de tutelle les dérogations idoines. » « Si un appel d’offres avait été lancé, cela aurait tué le projet », lâche carrément un salarié d’Havas.
Signe de la panique : à la veille de Noël, le directeur financier de Business France doit utiliser sa carte bancaire personnelle pour bloquer la réservation de l’hôtel The Linq à hauteur de 64 000 dollars. « Je risque l’interdit bancaire et je ne vais pas casser mon assurance-vie pour financer la French Tech hors process, y a des limites », s’énerve-t-il. Avant que Muriel Pénicaud permette son remboursement en faisant passer la facture en note de frais.
Havas accusé de « recel de favoritisme »
Au cours de l’enquête, le juge s’est aussi penché sur d’éventuelles collusions entre les dirigeants de Business France et l’agence de communication Havas. Le directeur d’Havas Paris Fabrice Conrad affirme qu’il était persuadé que la soirée de Las Vegas s’intégrait à un « contrat-cadre » que son agence avait remporté quelques mois plus tôt pour une campagne de promotion de Business France. Et qu’il n’y avait donc pas besoin d’une nouvelle mise en concurrence. « Je suis en charge de l’opérationnel. Je ne suis pas un juriste », se défend-il.
Un argument « difficilement audible » pour le responsable du contrôle interne de Business France qui estime qu’« Havas Paris savait qu’il s’agissait de deux opérations de communication distinctes, y compris sous l’angle budgétaire ». Le 15 décembre, à trois semaines de la soirée, Fabrice Conrad s’inquiète d’ailleurs par mail de l’absence d’un « go budgétaire » de Business France. Autant d’éléments qui ont conduit le juge à mettre en examen Havas Paris, puis Fabrice Conrad en avril 2024, pour « recel de favoritisme ».
Le haut management d’Havas avait été convié aux agapes de Las Vegas. Le 1er janvier 2016, un responsable de l’agence de com' informe une conseillère du ministre que « M. Yannick Bolloré [le PDG d’Havas] a eu M. Macron au téléphone qui l’aurait invité au dîner prévu mercredi à Las Vegas ». Dans un autre message, Fabrice Conrad indique à Stéphane Fouks, le vice-président d’Havas, que « Muriel serait ravie de t’y voir ». En 2014, quelques semaines avant sa prise de poste chez Business France, Muriel Pénicaud avait déjà déjeuné avec Stéphane Fouks pour avoir ses conseils.
La candidature du neveu
Plus gênant, en août 2016, la patronne de Business France poussera la candidature de son neveu pour un contrat d’apprentissage chez Havas. Une demande que Fabrice Conrad relaie au responsable des recrutements avec ce commentaire : « C’est un GROS client et donc une candidature à BIEN traiter. » Après un premier échec de son neveu, Muriel Pénicaud insiste. Le directeur d’Havas Paris lui promet alors « de le faire entrer en contact avec d’autres structures du groupe ». Le neveu décrochera finalement un contrat de onze moins au sein de la holding du groupe Bolloré, relève le juge.
Dernier détail piquant : ce n’est que dans l’avion du retour qu’Emmanuel Macron semble se soucier du coût des festivités. « Le ministre souhaiterait (moi aussi) savoir combien coûte la soirée », écrit Muriel Pénicaud à sa directrice de la communication le 8 janvier. Une demande que Fabienne Bothy-Chesneau juge « étrange » : « Je pense qu’à ce moment-là elle réalise le problème et se couvre ». Un peu tard peut-être.

This image tells the story of redemption for one lonely star. The young star MP Mus (PDS 66) was thought to be all alone in the Universe, surrounded by nothing but a featureless band of gas and dust called a protoplanetary disc. In most cases, the material inside a protoplanetary disc condenses to form new planets around the star, leaving large gaps where the gas and dust used to be. These features are seen in almost every disc – but not in MP Mus’s.
When astronomers first observed it with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), they saw a smooth, planet-free disc, shown here in the right image. The team, led by Álvaro Ribas, an astronomer at the University of Cambridge, UK, gave this star another chance and re-observed it with ALMA at longer wavelengths that peer even deeper into the protoplanetary disc than before. These new observations, shown in the left image, revealed a gap and a ring that had been obscured in previous observations, suggesting that MP Mus might have company after all.
Meanwhile, another piece of the puzzle was being revealed in Germany as Miguel Vioque, an astronomer at the European Southern Observatory, studied this same star with the European Space Agency’s (ESA’s) Gaia mission. Vioque noticed something suspicious – the star was wobbling. A bit of gravitational detective work, together with insights from the new disc structures revealed by ALMA, showed that this motion could be explained by the presence of a gas giant exoplanet.
Both teams presented their joint results in a new paper published in Nature Astronomy. In what they describe as “ a beautiful merging of two groups approaching the same object from different angles ”, they show that MP Mus isn’t so boring after all.
[Image description: This is an observation from the ALMA telescope, showing two versions (side-by-side) of a protoplanetary disc. Both discs are bright, glowing yellow-orange objects with a diffused halo against a dark background. The right disc is more smooth and blurry looking. The left disc shows more detail, for example gaps and rings within it.]

With West Bank annexation in the air, settlers revel in their impunity
Israeli settlers have rampaged through Palestinian towns and rioted at a military base in recent weeks, knowing government officials have their backs.
972mag.com/settler-impunity-we…
Over the span of two days, one of the last remaining Palestinian communities between Ramallah and Jericho was uprooted from its land.
On the evening of July 2, dozens of Israeli settlers descended on the West Bank shepherding village of Al-Muarrajat. They broke into homes, stole around 60 sheep, and erected a small outpost inside the village. By the next morning, settlers were seen sitting alongside Israeli soldiers at the newly built outpost, now moved just meters from the village school.
Fearing further theft, residents began evacuating their livestock. By Friday, families were packing their belongings and leaving en masse. Thirty families — 177 people in total — were forced out, all but erasing the community.
“Residents were forced to leave at gunpoint,” said 28-year-old Aaliyah Malihat, a local activist, as her family gathered their possessions. “People have nowhere to go. They’re scattering to nearby villages.”

3 Postscripts 3 IV.- Of Cats and Boxes abolitionmedia.noblogs.org/202…
3 Postscripts 3 IV.- Of Cats and Boxes
A paradox of Schrödinger’s paradox
Erwin Schrödinger (Austria-Ireland. 1887-1966), who seems to have been not very fond of house cats, proposed a theoretical exercise for quantum physics.
The approach is simple, although its implications are very complex. A cat has been placed inside a box. The box has a device that, with no definite time, releases a sort of lethal mechanism and the cat will die. Since the box is airtight, it is not known whether the cat is still alive or has already perished. Once the box is opened, one possibility or the other is proven. The previous moment, when we do not know if it is alive or dead, suggests that there are two worlds or two simultaneous universes. In one the cat is already dead, in the other it is still alive. A mortal mechanism activated and not activated; a cat alive and dead at the same time; a superposition of states according to quantum physics.
Let’s leave aside, for now, the references to comic book multiverses and the consequences in quantum physics. Let us also leave aside Don Schördinger’s animosity towards cats, and that he obviously did not know much about those felines (anyone who has dealt with them knows that they would not let themselves be caught, much less allow themselves to be locked up, without protesting and without defending themselves -even more so if it is a… cat-dog-). Let’s also not take too much notice that the cat is imprisoned and condemned to death, unless someone sees fit to open the box when the lethal mechanism has not been activated, and the cat jumps out and frees itself from the prison.
This theoretical exercise is supposed to be a basis for showing that worlds in several universes are possible, that is, in a multiverse (although it is also to show that the laws of quantum physics do not apply in everyday life).
As far as my limited knowledge of comics allows me, I understand that, in those diverse worlds, the individual still prevails, but in different versions. In one world, Sheldon Cooper (TV series “The Big Bang Theory”), is a scientist with social problems. In another, he is an irredeemable womanizer. In another, he is a “popular” judge in Mexico’s judicial system (oh, I know, my perversity is sublime).
And this digression that, I hope, is perplexing, comes to the topic, or point supposedly that even with the imaginative capacity to raise the simultaneous existence of the living cat and the dead cat, the possibility (or the universe) of there being one or several cats that refuse to enter the box is not raised. And perhaps with the aggravating factor that the supposed cat is actually a cat-dog.
In pointing out some possibilities, others are omitted.
When talking about the capitalist system, the different proposals refer to what they can do to improve the conditions of the cat locked in the trap, to lengthen its life (or its chances of life), or to “humanize” the lethal device.
It is, shall we say, what progressivism is all about. Definition of progressivism? Well, those who are leftists until the eve of taking office and having a position, office, pay, well, then. Then they stop being leftist, they become the establishment, and disguise their pragmatism (which leads them to ally and join their enemies of the eve -and to distance themselves from their social past-), as “political realism.” It is, then, a capital-friendly left. That is to say, a “cool”, pretty, demure and blushing right wing.
In this case, progressivism promises, on the eve of the event, to free the cat from its prison. Then, because he cannot or will not do it, he “changes” his proposal: “I will make you more comfortable”; “I will get better conditions for your death”; “I will fight so that the lethal mechanism does not activate too quickly.” Or, he may instead urge the prisoner to hang on, since he has a 50% chance of temporarily surviving. Imprisoned, yes, but alive.
-*-
The capitalist system is that box. Inside it, multitudes wait, without knowing it, for the murderous mechanism to be activated. Wars, famines, “natural” catastrophes, violent assaults, assassinations, governmental arbitrariness, destructions that will have to solve the enigma: “to live or to die.”
In the box there are those who have the crime of being a woman, boy or girl, young, old, other, dark-skinned, native, with a foreign language in their own land, and so on. No matter their condition, gender, race, ideology, religion, manner, stature, physical complexion: that person is inside the box and is subject to those deadly laws.
Not only without the possibility of getting out, but also without even imagining that another world exists out there.
The option to delay death or improve the conditions of condemnation is submission and acceptance to be part of the showcase of “weird things” that the system exhibits for its own amusement. Woman, Non-binary person, Native, Race, Neighborhood, Nationality, every “oddity” has its place in the curiosity store if it behaves “well.” If not, well, the “invisible hand of the market” will pull the exterminating lever.
Example: the crime of being born, growing up and fighting in Palestinian lands is not to accept being part of the showcase of capital. And to resist and rebel against the machine. The machine wants a recreational center in Gaza and Palestinian civilization is in its way, the Palestinian people are fighting for a land to live in.
Palestine is the best example of the terminal crisis of the so called “Nation States” and their governments. They do not command, they only obey at convenience. They are incapable of presenting an independent, dignified and consistent foreign policy.
And in the ongoing mass murder, the complicity and neglect of the governments of the planet (with a few exceptions), is pathetic. The police of the different European and American governments repressing the demonstrations for the cessation of the genocide in Palestine, are the best oratory about Western “humanism”.
In the world above, European governments are the idle and useless court of the reigning king, Russia and China are the counts and dukes conspiring for regicide, and offering an alternate monarch. The rest of the national governments in the world, except for those who have clearly spoken out against it, are the busy pages, stressed by the continuous demands and harassments of the royal family.
Who are those that contemplate, operate, have fun and make bets on what happens in the box? The big financial, commercial, industrial and, now, digital and aerospace capital.
The governments of the world, for the most part, are just the ticket-takers of the bets, the “brokers” on the stock exchanges where the wars are always up, and life below… down. And, as the Mileis of the world are and will be, they are the ones who are sent to buy and serve the wine that will preside over the monarchic banquets (the chainsaw is an autochthonous detail).
-*-
However, there are those who consider another possibility: not to enter the box or to get out of it.
Moreover, there are those who question the box itself, its eternal and omnipotent existence; and its claim to be the only universe that tolerates the existence, within itself, of diversity, of several universes or multiverses… domesticated.
Those people who are posing that are what we Zapatistas call “resistance and rebellion.” Resistance to enter the box or, if you are inside, Rebellion to fight to get out.
Resistance and Rebellion that proposes the destruction of the box, of the logic that created it and of the belief that “something else” is not possible.

Catherine #Fitts, ancienne responsable du gouvernement #Bush, affirme que les dossiers #Epstein pourraient révéler une dissimulation bien plus importante impliquant Jeffrey Epstein, plus de 20.000 milliards de dollars manquants au Pentagone et la campagne de #vaccination du gouvernement dans le cadre de l'opération #WarpSpeed.
Elle affirme que la vérité sur Epstein révélerait également où sont allés les billions manquants et qui est réellement à l'origine de l'agenda vaccinal.
Mme #Fitts estime que les mêmes personnes qui ont pillé le système font aujourd'hui la promotion d'injections expérimentales, et que la révélation de ce lien pourrait déstabiliser l'ensemble du système.

updated: These extensions weren't malware-laced from the start, researcher saysJessica Lyons (The Register)
@brucelawson, there are a lot of crappy extension in the Chrome Store. It's always recommended to look for the origin of it. If there isn't a link to an homepage or author (best FOSS), or made by Google itself, then it's to take with much precaution or search an alternative (read ALWAYS TOS and PP).
It's good that in Vivaldi most extensions in the Store are anyway redundant, only needed extensions for very few, occasional tasks.
The mencioned one certainly isn't mandatory, it can be done with most graphic apps, eg.with Minipaint right in Vivaldi and even in the WebPanel, and values can be copied as note or in the OS clipboard.

I've been using Linux on and off throughout the years, but lately I've fallen out of the loop somewhat. Started with Slackware around 1998, Kubuntu in the 2000's, Ubuntu 2010's, Kali and Mandrake 2020's -> on my laptop, Ubuntu server on my RasPi. At work, we have a few Fedora servers I have to maintain. So not a complete novice, but somewhat obsolete info.
I have been looking at the immutable distros, like Bazzite and Pop!_OS as I've done the whole song and dance of constantly repairing my distro because of various issues, and I'd like my main recreational machine & distro to be low maintenance, I get to fix linux servers at work enough already, I don't want to bring that home.
With gaming, I've understood that linux has come a loooooong way since I last tried sometime around TBC Launch for WoW when Wine barely worked with it.
Music composing is a little annoying, since apparently both Ableton and FL studio are not an option. I've heard good things about Reaper, but I'll have to do some more research. Feel free to educate me on this topic if you have some insider info. I don't play live sets, just compose and mix.
Video editing, currently I use Davinci Resolve, and apparently it works fine on Linux, just some limitations and shenanigans with codecs. Alternatives are welcome, I don't need 90% of what resolve offers, I can make do with a simpler software as well.
Thank you kindly in advance for departing thine wisdom.
EDIT: Ended up installing Bazzite, and KVM virtualizing OpenSuse Tumbleweed and vanilla Fedora, keeping my backups for now on the NAS so I will be able to easily nuke & go with Tumbleweed (I think) next, since so many people seem to swear by it. Thank you everyone for the great advice!

One thing that strikes me about the Palestinian Holocaust is how united the people are against it - and how universally the ruling class has mobilized to see it to completion. Palestine is a proof of concept - if the ruling class can get away with live streaming a genocide through its entirety despite overwhelming opposition from the people, they can get away with anything.
We are at a turning point; the rise of AI and its increasing usage by the police, military, etc is rapidly robbing the working class of our power. If we do not act now, we may never have the strength to act again; if Palestine falls, we will all fall with it.

Since the beginning of the Al-Aqsa Flood, the main concern of Western governments has been to prevent the defeat of the #Zionist entity both militarily and politically. Yes, the primary concern is economic interests. But beyond that there is the Paradigm. The Western (and also the eastern) #capitalist hegemony does not want an example of poor human beings, oppressed for decades, and subjected to constant humiliation, standing up. If the #Palestinian #Resistance wins, it will mean that we, the oppressed, here in the West, can win too. This is one reason why we see small States (based on imperialist hegemony) taking a protective position for the Zionist entity. If this is defeated, the power of their governments will be challenged the next day. And if the Power of the small State Entities is challenged, it will be the turn of the driving forces of #imperialism.
So if the Palestinian Resistance wins, then we will have an example of how our empires could fall.
Finally it's a great opportunity for the oppressed people around the world to shout: Victory for the Palestinian Resistance!

The control of sources is the main weapon of the occupation. To justify the illegal stealing of natural resources #zioNaZis send the gangs of settlers to do it. Then, they are simply given to the state.
"The Jerusalem Governorate Water Authority stated that a group of Israeli settlers stormed all the Ain Samia wells last night and vandalized them, causing significant destruction and a complete control over the wells.
The Authority explained that these wells are the sole source of water supply for dozens of villages and population communities across the West Bank. It confirmed that complaints had been submitted to all official bodies, but the settlers’ attacks continue to escalate frequently and brutally. The Authority warned that if an immediate end is not put to these assaults, the entire region is at risk of an unprecedented water disaster.

Illegal migrants should be nowhere near schools, educational establishments or anything to do with children.
They shouldn’t be in the country full stop, but to place these unvetted young men near young boys and girls is reckless, irresponsible and downright dangerous. We don’t know who they are, or where they have come from. It is simply not safe.
These men must be kept away from children.
Not all of them are bad people, but it’s a risk we just cannot take.
This is not racist. This is not far right. This is about safety. Children’s safety.
We need to set up secure detention facilities where these men can be held until their removal can be arranged.
If the facilities don’t exist, build them.
Hospitals sprouted out of the ground overnight for COVID, do the same for the illegals.
Imagine how parents living near one of these hotels feel? Especially those with young daughters? Having these unvetted men roaming their streets?
It's disgraceful. It is NOT safe.
They have broken the law. They are in our country illegally. Detain them, deport them.
But above all else in the short term, please keep them away from children.
A mass mobilization took place at the port of #Piraeus, with hundreds of people gathering since dawn to prevent the unloading of a military cargo destined for the apartheid state of #Israel and its use for the ongoing massacre in #Gaza.
In their call the dockers pointed out that:
"The ship Ever Golden, with its military cargo with final destination Israel, is expected to dock at Piers 2 & 3 of Piraeus on 14 July Monday at 07:30 am. This is cargo that will be used to continue the slaughter of civilians, the bombing of hospitals, schools, children, infants and women. The port of Piraeus is NOT and will NOT be allowed to become an outpost of the #USA, #NATO or the #EU.
Our goal is: to block in practice the unloading and prevent the transport of this deadly cargo. We will not paint our hands with blood, we will not be accomplices and at the same time targets of retaliation."

IOF obviously targets children. Someone in the West got a bit angry (not to much, because they afraid to be under mossad surveillance in the end) and asked about accountancy. No punishments. No, no. Our leaders in the West don't go so far. They leave Israeli soldiers, who are accused by various organisations, to walk free without accountability in the West. Back in the story, Israel answered that killed these children by accident. They call accident the 40% of total casualties in #Gaza.
There are still idiots in the West who believe this. todon.nl/@prolrage/11143170379…
