My name is Soliman — a young man and student from Gaza, carrying a burden far heavier than my age. Between my studies and the hardships of life, I try to be the backbone of my family in the most difficult of times.
We once had a small farm — olive and citrus trees, and a greenhouse where we planted not just crops, but dreams.
That farm was our only source of income, and more than that, it was a place full of memories, of hope, and of the laughter that once made life a little easier.
But in a single moment, everything was gone.
A fire reduced our years of effort to ashes.
We lost our source of living, our stability — and with it, a part of our souls.
Now, despite the pain, I’m trying to start over. I’m doing everything I can to keep my family standing, to find even the smallest light of hope that might restore our strength, dignity, and sense of humanity.
On top of all this, I’m also struggling with serious health issues.
I suffer from a urinary tract infection caused by the lack of access to clean drinking water.
Here in Gaza, we’re forced to drink water mixed with sand and other contaminants — there’s simply no other choice.
It’s affecting my health badly, and I need treatment I can’t afford in these conditions.
I’m sharing my story with honesty and hope, praying it reaches a kind heart — someone who can help, or even just share it with others who might be able to.

My preferences are: relatively small phone, very close to 6 inches, a high refresh rate display, 90hz or more, a capable camera array, preferably with a video portrait mode, and, the hardest one, I don't want a phone sold by a chinese company.
Let's start with the size. Current phones are just way too big. If I can't reach the top left corner with my thumb without shifting my grip, it's too big. Period.
As per the provenance of the phone, Chinese manufacturers are a red flag for me. It's not paranoia, but every chinese company is legally required to hand over all information about their users to the chinese government: techradar.com/news/dell-wants-…
I used Samsung phones for a long while. I started on the Galaxy S8, then I had an S9+, an S10e, then an S21. I ran the default Samsung ROM on some of these, and I find Samsung phones great. I even miss the curved edges screen.
My problem with Samsung is more in terms of reliability. All phones I owned from them had the exact same issue: after about a year, they stop recognizing my SIM card. This happened to EVERY Samsung phone I ever owned, so I'm done with them.
So that leaves Google, the Pixels are highly rated by people who use them.
But first, and it's subjective, I find them horrendous to look at. Plus, they're very unreliable. The first gen had severe performance degradation, the second one had a bad OLED screen that burned in way too quickly, and an easy to break USB C connector. The third pixels were plagued by software issues. The fourth pixels had a bad screen again, and a very insecure face unlock mechanism.
The fifth pixels seemed to have huge manufacturing issues with the screen separating from the main body, and almost right after launch as well.
The 6th one has issues with the fingerprint sensor not working well, the assistant could ghost dial random contacts, there was a screen flicker issue, so basically no quality control on that phone.
And as per the pixel 7, it looks like the camera glass is spontaneously cracking.
I'm sure I could look hard and long enough and find something that I'd enjoy, but Android is just messy. Samsung's brand of Android, called oneUI was pretty good, with a great design flair, easy to use with one hand, with major controls at the bottom of the screen, good gesture navigation, and looks wise, it was pretty good.
BUT it's riddled with ads in a lot of the default applications, and it's a mess of applications you can't remove. It's bloatware central.
If you go with Vanilla Android from Google, then you get something that is way more trimmed down, with only Google apps and services, but the design is horrible, in my opinion.
Which leads us to alternate ROMS. Graphene OS works on Pixels, and as I explained, no way I'm buying one, not with that track record.
Then there's Lineage, or /e/, my favorite one, which goes even further than Lineage in terms of removing Google crap, and has a very nice simple aesthetic that I find super pleasing.
/e/ is what I would use, if I could find a phone I like to use it on. My Galaxy S21 is in a drawer, and I'd love to use that with /e/. But I can't, because they don't support it.
Despite a US-Vietnam trade deal with tariffs, Chinese investment in Vietnam is booming. Chinese manufacturers are relocating to Vietnam to mitigate higher tariffs on goods from China, taking advantage of Vietnam's lower costs and proximity. While this makes Vietnam a key player in global supply chains, it also increases its reliance on Chinese components, complicating the US goal of decoupling nations from China.

it's a great movie but it's all about the aesthetics and the soundtrack, it's not some captivating drama about the AI betraying the crew of the ship as people may think before watching the movie
@deadheat yeah, it's really not that deep. I did have some ideas and "theories" about why HAL started reporting a malfunction in the first place, and the summary of the novel largely confirmed them to me: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001:_A_… so in the end, I have less questions than I expected, including the last segment of the film
Yeah, people usually remember HAL when they think about this movie probably because it's the part of the plot that makes sense, the obelisk, the psychedelic trip and the ending are intriguing but those things don't make much sense. I don't know if this is kinda autistic but what stuck with me was actually the spaceships spinning in space to Blue Danube.

@Derdnik same for me. I was trying to remember the other things we did in the late 70’s. I remember the pull ups, and we had sit ups, a shuttle run, and a 600 yd run, but I don’t remember the other events. I remember the girls did a hang instead of pull ups, and I think they might have had a softball throw too.

We're nearing the end of October already, and this means it's time for a new release of Ubuntu 20.10, Groovy Gorilla. There are new desktop features, and new plumbing, as always, but I mostly have some thoughts about the Ubuntu desktop in general. Does 20.10 deserve its name?
Join this channel to get access to a monthly patroncast and vote on the next topics I'll cover: youtube.com/channel/UC5UAwBUum…
Ubuntu 20.10 still uses GNOME, and it embarks version 3.38 of the desktop environment.
First, the application grid can now be re-arranged by hand: no more alphabetical sorting, you can put app icons in any order you desire, in the grid, or in the application folders. These now handle pagination if you have more than 9 applications in them, and the grid will scale with the size of your display, so you can see more apps if you have a big screen.
The date indicator now displays your upcoming appointments, which is a feature I've been enjoying in elementary OS, and that really helps with dealing with a crowded agenda. You also get a microphone indicator when recording audio, or doing a conference call, and you can mute the mic from that little icon, which is nice.
You can also toggle the battery percentage in the battery settings, and that's the result of an initiative to bring the GNOME tweaks settings back into the main GNOME settings, so we'll have to see where it goes next.
Finally, you also get an option to reboot, directly from the power menu.
Ubuntu 20.10 also benefits from improved fingerprint support and login, thanks to a new GUI, that I unfortunately can't test, as the fingerprint reader in my keyboard, or may laptop aren't supported.
Users of an ethernet connection will also be able to share it through their wifi card, thanks a new hotspot that you can just scan from a mobile device to connect to.
Apps
The application selection in Ubuntu 20.10 is unchanged, with Firefox as the web browser, LibreOffice as the office suite, and Thunderbird as the mail client.
All these apps gain something interesting, though, as LibreOffice now has an icon theme taht actually integrates with Ubuntu, based on Yaru, and it looks pretty good in both light mode and dark mode.
Thunderbird benefits from a calendar plugin by default, which means that it's finally a complete solution out of the box, even though I would have preferred they went with Geary and the GNOME calendar instead, as Thunderbird still looks really out of place in my opinion.
Firefox gains better touchpad scrolling on laptops, with smoother pixel per pixel navigation. The improvement is really noticeable, and makes a huge difference in how the browser feels when used on a laptop.
Finally, the screenshot tool also gains a new look, but its feature set remains unchanged.
Ubuntu 20.10 packs the Linux kernel version 5.8, so it's only one version behind the latest one out there, and should get as much hardware support as possible here. As always, the nvidia drivers are up to date as well.
Ubuntu 20.10 also suppriots OEM kernels, so manufacturers that want to ship their own kernels with support for their hardware can do so. It's an important feature, since Linux has been popping up on multiple big name hardware manufacturers like Lenovo and Dell.
In terms of hardware support, Ubuntu will now run natively on the raspberry pi 4, which is a huge boon for people who want to use these little boards for small desktop replacements here and there.
Other flavours
Ubuntu Studio 20.10 moved to KDE as its default desktop, instead of XFCE, which should give it a more interesting look and feel out of the box, and sees the return of the Jack Mixer.
Kubuntu 20.10 ships with Plasma 5.19, since 5.20 released a bit too late to be integrated, which is a shame. It uses the KDE apps 20.08.1, and uses Firefox 81 as its main browser, and LibreOffice as its office suite. All KDE4 and QT4 libraries and apps have been removed from the archives, and a plasma wayland session in installable, but still not supported officially.
Ubuntu Budgie can now allow you to search for the various GNOME settings panels, they have a new optional applet to have the menu as an app grid, and they're using the Mojave icon theme, which looks kinda mac-like. The team has actually helped in fixing a bunch of bugs and paper cuts, and the list if pretty long, you'll find a link in the description below.
Ubuntu Budgie 20.10 is a normal release that will be supported for 9 months until July 2021. Long Term Releases such as 20.04.1 provide assured stability over a…

Suppose I use material deposition to make an electrolytic capacitor with 1 million series cells, but it's 1cm from anode to cathode. Assume each pocket of electrolyte is isolated and there are no material defects.
What is the breakdown voltage of that capacitor and why?
ChatGPT says: 100kv - 1Mv (and that's what I'm coming up with as well)
But how does something 1cm wide block even 100kv, let alone 1Mv - especially something that's half metal and half water?!
Yes. Atomic deposition can theoretically do that. It's slow as hell but I'm using an absurd example to ask the question because I want to know what the actual limiting factor is.
hmm I guess the tunneling in transistors is through the oxide layer between the gate and the channel, which is much smaller than the width of a transistor
oh apparently the oxide layer in electrolytic capacitors forms on its own when you put the particular anode material in contact with the particular electrolyte
To my knowledge there is no oxide layer, at least not intentionally. These cells can be thought of as tiny hydrogen cells, they just don't push them over 1.2v so they don't begin generating H2. The conductor needs to touch the electrolyte so it can cause the ion reaction to begin.
My reasoning is: what you're making has a very corrugated potential, so it'll be hard for charges to move through it. In fact, the layers could be entirely within the depletion region of the transitions, so there aren't actually any charge carriers any more. (Well done, you built an insulator!)
I think what's crazy is that a composite material has more insulating capacity than any of it's parts. I shouldn't be that surprised because this can be demonstrated by leakage in an H2 electrolyzer, seeing power take a longer route through electrolyte, only to avoid the plates.
I have a second hypothesis, which is that electrical discontinuity in a floating plate is more-or-less irrelevant. So if it's cut in halves, or quarters, or eights, or so on, each piece still does the job, and the total is the sum of it's parts.
Based on these two hypotheses, I infer that I can make a cheap capacitor by mixing a slurry of carbon nano-particles in gel electrolyte, and placing those between anode and cathode plates or rod and tube. The idea is that any path of current between anode and cathode is going to pass through the same number of nano-particles +- say 5%, and that number is the number of "virtual" neutral plates.
A couple of challenges: 1. The plates need to be very well aligned, because a narrow side will create a part of the capacitor with fewer particles to pass through. 2. Particle size needs to be fairly homogenous because if there's one large particle, it will potentially create a very short path which will reduce max voltage. Mixing of the particles needs to be excellent so that any given cross-section has roughly the same distribution of particle sizes.
I didn't know that, but indeed it makes perfect sense, and I shouldn't be surprised at all about the existence of composite insulators. But I really want to try making a mudcap.
My EE / Physics knowledge is kind of pathetic, and it's really hard for me to learn because I'm so distrustful that most explanations are not satisfactory for me.
So in the case of something like a transistor, I can accept it as one huge black box, because I have to. Or I can drill down to the atomic level and understand what the electrons are doing, but I will not be satisfied with any intermediary explanation which still leaves assumptions, generalizations, and black boxes...
I've found that ChatGPT is quite helpful for this, and again because I'm so distrustful, hallucinations don't tend to be that big a deal because I won't accept anything until it's been proven based on things I already know to be true. So basically GPT and I both have to make the exact same mistake for me to be fooled by it...
@sjb hmm ok so I think I could explain it to you with only one new assumption:
That inside a solid, an electron is only allowed to have some energy levels and not others, because quantum mechanics says so. And QM says which ones and I don't know why these in particular.
Something that might convince me to actually figure out how silicon works is this circuit:
To my understanding, current flow causes the transistor to block current flow, and the presence of an inductor causes this to resonate. The point being that pulsing power to an LED will make it something like 60% as bright, but use 1% as much power...
Right, but of course I'm not going to be content with a bunch of magic numbers, so I'll have to actually bother to understand what's going on under the hood...
I don't need to waste your time, I can use Sam Altman's electricity because I'm not going to trust what it says anyway, and then I'll cross-check what it says against what's in books, then I'll be back when I have a real question like the breakdown voltage of a stacked capacitor...
Well, I asked, and I've now gotten into: 1. Electron shells (I knew about this) 2. Subshells 3. Valence and Conduction bands & band gap 4. Crystal structures (of silicon and copper, because I want to understand copper as a case of conductivity) 5. Noble Gas Notation 6. The Aufbau Principle 7. Magnetic quantum number & Spin quantum number which so far have not proven to be relevant to the topic.
I still have not yet reached the point where things become LESS complicated when I ask another question, so far it's like a fantasy novel where every question leads to more back-story.
@sjb Try FETs first - they're easier, and if you already nderstand Schottky diode / tunnel diode (metal-semiconductor junction), then FETs are just a step from that.
BJTs are more confusing... IIRC they work because once you have the opposite type of charge carrier in the base (so conduction-band electrons in P base, or valence-band holes in N base) they won't recombine immediatelty so they have time to be pulled by the collector-emitter potential difference
I think I have a handle on BJTs (at least NPN), basically the emitter is a little bit more efficient at injecting electrons into the base than the collector is at removing them - and if the base fills up then it blocks like a diode - so draining off the excess electron pressure in the base keeps it functioning.
@sjb for me the unclear part was why is the collector even able to remove the electrons from the base, considering the B-C junction is reverse-biased... but maybe it isn't? I forgot what the band diagram of a conducting BJT looks like.
Per my mental model as of now, it's due to the doaping bias. The emitter is more heavily doped than the collector, so (I think) electrons would migrate from emitter to collector even without the base. The base is thin and quickly saturated so the electrons kind of spill over.
But don't take my word for it, yesterday I knew *nothing* so this is still just a vague rambling...
Recent copies of the United States Navy's Electricity & Electronics Training Series (NEETS) modules: A NAVEDTRA non-resident training course (NRTC) as (.pdf) files.
What I don't understand is the point of this. You get larger capacitances by putting them in *parallel*, not in series? In series you can only extract charge out of the end one! In the same way that insulators can have static electricity on the surface, with huge voltages but hardly any charge.
You don't increase capacitance, you increase total energy storage by higher voltage tolerance. You could always make a high voltage cap with plates far apart, but the capacitance is pitiful because of the thick insulator that is needed.
I might be mistaken here, but I think a stack of electrolytic layers is going to outperform a ceramic high voltage cap of similar thickness.
Yes, high voltage is a big challenge, but being able to cast nearly-super-capacitors from activated carbon mud is a big opportunity.
If you have 50 micron particles and 50 micron gaps between them, that's 100 microns per "cell", so a 1cm anode->cathode spacing will have 100 cells, so figure about 100v safe voltage. Making a parallel mud stack with 1cm layers is like making a cake.
You can push it to 1000v by going to 5um particles or by going to 10cm gaps.
Sub-1um carbon is a pain to get ahold of and crushing it yourself is diminishing returns, so pushing it to higher voltages is a bit more exotic.
The point is there are voltages that are not obscene, costs are super low, and the whole thing has weekend project vibes.
That's the thing that's mind-boggling, APPARENTLY it doesn't because the plates get a static charge which repels the electrons, and the whole thing becomes a weird composite insulator.

CEOs call it a revolution in efficiency. The workers powering it call it a "new era in forced labor." I spoke to the people on the front lines of the AI takeover.
And as a painful coda to Scott Farquahar’s #npc shenanigans shared earlier by @emmadavidson, here’s the other half (apparently the less warm one) firing 150 workers by video.
Beginning a thought about the prospect of mass global #underwork.
The definitions and thresholds of employment used by governments are way more granular than just “in work” or “has job”. So underworking is likely to be far more prevalent than the data derived from self-reported survey responses. And the vision of labour market transformation thanks to sparkly new futurey jobs is very light on detail about new job stability or income sufficiency.
Why think about this as #underwork not underemployment? Because underworking is a human condition with human impact, like overworking. Underwork is a social situation.
And unless the sparkly new futurey jobs show up, AI driven underworking will expand the demographic of an established and generationally impactful underworking class: working under the level of wealth creation, working insecurely, with fewer protections, weaker access to fair work provisions, solidarity or safe protest.
And the threshold of being countable as employed in Australia is one hour paid work a week, and can be not even that. So the unemployment rate references this number, not any common sense understanding of sufficient work to live on. It includes all the teenage workers 15 and up.
Within this are nested the underemployed who report themselves in a monthly survey of around 50000 Australians as employed and either having had expected working hours reduced, or preferring to work more than their normal working hours.
So this is how we get an official underemployment rate of 5.9% in Australia.
Why this matters: if you hear that 150 workers have been ejected from their seats, but you just heard that employment levels are both high and stable, you might think: that’s ok, there will be another job.
But when you factor in underemployment, which includes people already losing sufficient work and people who didn’t have sufficient work to begin with, things look tougher.
Political choices that favour business and growth are long-term social choices about how we live, who gets to flourish, who gets by, who gets trapped in #underwork.
US labour market data makes the news, in a predictable way, by confounding the Tantrum in Chief. The thing to notice though is that the science of estimation always makes people testy because labour market vitals feed into consumer confidence and political futures. Meanwhile behind the data, every point is a person, a family, a community. #underwork
This from @scottsantens on UBI is detailed and clear. Work related poverty is expanding; capitalism is failing humans as well as the planet. Capitalism as a system cannot deliver us from its own intended impacts. So, something new is needed, and urgently.
A reporter reached out to me last month with questions about Universal Basic Income that required hours of my time to answer. Here are all the answers I wrote to all the questions, none of which ended up being published by them.
A Newsweek reporter recently asked me — with a sense of urgency mind you — to provide expert answers on UBI for a story. I answered all their questions in detail by deadline. They never replied.
The US takes a granular view of “not working” in the survey period, including the subcategories of “discouraged worker” and “marginally attached to the labor force”. Among workers, “involuntary part-time workers” are what Australia would call the underemployed. This is the social experience that is rapidly becoming lifetime or even generational #underwork.
The language of labor underutilization used in US reporting moralises the problem of work, making it a problem that affects government and business rather than a social harm that affects people and communities.
Caveat: I’m not a statistically literate person, far from it. I’m really just thinking about how employment reporting is a languaging practice, a storytelling practice, and all kinds of political vibing. Trump’s tantrums make this clear, but it was already there like climate change: however you count whatever you count, the underlying lived experience of trying to get through these times is that water is rising faster than we’re prepared for.
Quietly horrifying correlate to the rapid spread of #underwork is the triumphalism now associated with #overwork.
We need to stop treating these as separate phenomena. They are the two sides of the work coin flipping. As Levitt describes, overworkers are colluding with the business ideal of competitive advantage, but in working two jobs inside one salary they’re also ensuring the rise of involuntary part-time work.
Meanwhile, salaries and sign-on bonuses in the AI sector give us a glimpse of the sunlit uplands where talent is rewarded with immediate and dizzying wealth. Work redefined as elite level competitive sport aligned to willingness to show up all hours is life changing for very few whose life goal is to, I don’t know, buy islands.
But these aspirational shenanigans are not disconnected from the social crisis of #underwork, far from it.
We found that, if our survey development and “PAL”* were good, on some topics the respondent would understand just what types of information we needed. They’d start telling their story—and the interviewer could fill out the survey questionnaire with minimal need to ask questions. PAL: the primary approach letter, telling selected households that an ABS Population Survey interviewer would come (with ABS identification card), and giving a brief outline of the survey topic.
“This unvarnished perspective reveals a fundamental truth about the corporate embrace of AI: it is, at its core, a quest for efficiency and profitability. And in this quest, human labor is often seen as a liability, an obstacle to be overcome.”.
The dehumanization of society for profit continues. #AI #forcedlabor

Any mention I have seen of a "power couple" is always catering to the ego of women. No man cares about power couples, because they are not looking for a woman who is chasing some high flying career.
It only seeks to validate the feminist idea that a women should be celebrated for chasing careers, and that they should be rewarded for keeping their hypergamy even when it is unnecessary. A family can be supported fully with one high flying career. Two of them just means more money than needed.
I find myself blocking and muting more and more #liberal voices here on the #fediverse lately. Not because I'm secretly turning conservative (I'm progressive), but because their arguments are getting old and tired. And frankly they're note really offering up much of any solutions either other than whigning. #USpol

US President Donald Trump’s 50% tariffs on Brazil, which are set to go into effect on Wednesday, August 6, are “unacceptable blackmail,” says Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The Trump administration cited Brazil’s prosecution of former president Jair Bolsonaro as a significant reason for the proposed tariffs. In response, Lula said on X that Brazil is “a sovereign country with independent institutions and will not accept any tutelage.”
Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who is leading Bolsonaro’s prosecution,was put under sanctions by the US last week, a move he says is part of a “cowardly and treasonous”plot.
Bolsonaro currently faces charges related to his alleged effort to stage a coup and overturn the 2022 election results on January 8,2023.Last month,Moraes ordered Bolsonaro to wear an electronic ankle monitor and prohibited him from using social media and communicating with other individuals under investigation.
These measures are necessary, say Brazilian authorities, because Bolsonaro could attempt to flee the country or interfere with the judicial process. The prosecution of Bolsonaro and the January 8 rioters, insists Lula, is a legal matter that is not politically motivated.
The major legal development opens the door to criminal charges against prominent Cabinet members who served then-President Barack Obama, including former Director of National Intelligence James Cla…
@ITM Of course that is what we are all waiting for. Still, dragging these rats out into the open and embarrassing them is still progress. The ride is fun. I try to enjoy it. The Mueller thing pissed us off big time. Imagine how Trump feels?
