Freedom Flotilla organiser Huwaida Arraf shortly after she and the rest of the ship’s support crew lost contact with the Madleen:
“All those on board have been abducted. They have been taken against their will while they were sailing peacefully and lawfully in international waters…
They were in international waters, sailing towards Palestinian territorial waters, not getting near Israeli waters…
It needs to be made very clear that Israel has absolutely no jurisdiction, no lawful authority, to take over this vessel.”

Iodé is Android, but with all Google software removed. It uses Lineage OS as a base, but adds a built-in ad and tracker blocker that runs at all times, locally on the device.
The ROM itself will be familiar if you ever used a Pixel. On the Pixel 5, Iodé OS 4 was preinstalled, and it's based on Android 13. The latest security update was on January 5th 2023. The Iodé team told me they provide security updates every 2 months, and every month for beta users.
The default experience is as close to stock as can be: you have either the 3 button layout of Android, or the gestures, a dock of apps at the bottom, an app drawer by swiping up, and a few preset widgets.
In terms of apps, Iodé ships with a Firefox fork by default, which disables telemetry, trackers and enables alternative search engines right out of the box. The default email client is Pretty Easy privacy, or pEp. It's a simple email client with an easy interface, that adds end to end encryption capabilities to any mail account.
For Maps, you get Magic Earth, which is also open source, and uses OpenStreet Map. The keyboard is OpenBoard, the camera app is OpenCamera, which, while very powerful, has a terrible user interface and looks pretty bad.
Iodé comes with a tracker blocker built in. This thing works using a man in the middle attack style: the OS intercepts all communications and requests that go out of your phone, and blocks everything that's part of the blocklists. These blocklists are collaboratively sourced, and include a LOT of adblock and tracker blocker related things. This system is based on Energized Protection, which is an open source project licensed under the MIT license.
To complement this, there's a preinstalled app that lets you check out how many requests you've blocked to how many recipients.
Iodé OS relies on 2 app stores: you get F Droid for all your open source app needs, and you get the Aurora Store. Installing apps works very well, I encountered 0 problems here.
Where you'll have issues is running apps that depend on Google services. I tried installing the Youtube app, and it never opened. Other Google apps got me the same experience, like the youtube studio app. Stuff like Google Maps or Google Photos worked, but were unable to use the already added Google account in micro G.
After reaching out to the Iodé team, they told me they have identified the issue, which is fixed in the beta, and will be patched in the next OTA release.
Interestingly, stuff like my banking app worked immediately on Iodé, letting me use the phone as my secure device to authenticate purchases online, something that is usually blocked because the device doesn't pass SafetyNet checks. Here, it all worked perfectly for me.
Compared to Lineage OS, it adds all these tracker and ad blocking capabilities. You could probably replicate that yourself on Lineage, but at least here, it's setup right out of the box.
Compared to something like /e/, the latter has more advanced privacy features, with the ability to scramble your location at the press of a button, and more complete privacy controls.
But /e/ also deviates a lot from stock Android, with their own launcher, their own forks of open source apps, and generally an experience that won't appeal to everyone.
Iran’s Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib says the secret Israeli documents the country has obtained are related to the regime’s nuclear facilities and will enhance Iran’s offensive capabilities.

“The Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) confirms that its civilian ship, Madleen, carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza, has been attacked/forcibly intercepted by the Israeli military at 3:02 am CET in international waters at 31.95236° N, 32.38880° E. The ship was unlawfully boarded, its unarmed civilian crew abducted, and its life-saving cargo—including baby formula, food and medical supplies—confiscated.”
@chuls There is too much media visibility even for Israel to do something like that. Capturing the boat, escorting it to their port, and eventually releasing the crew is hopefully the worst Israel can afford to do.
I'm pretty sure the Madleen crew fully expected this outcome, and it nicely shows how all other countries tacitly accept Israel's breaking international law, instead of doing what law should compel them to do - protect their citizens when crimes are being done against them.
Israel had already declared what it was going to do. This was bound to occur. About baby formula, food and medical supplies, the Palestine authority should step up and handle it.
Gaza strip had zero Israel troops prior to 7-Oct-2023. It had hospitals, schools and electricity. Now significant portion of Gaza is rubble and it is crawling with Israeli troops.
The loosers are people on both sides. How many classes have children of Gaza missed? Was Oct 7 worth it?
Could you explain where these coordinates that precise with 5 digits after the decimal point come from? AIS signal is now 27 h ‘old’ and is was dark. A sailing boat does not spread light towards the sky. As a sailor I am curious. Radar?

@milkman76 So when it comes to gaming, I prefer Windows over Linux and Mac. But that’s only for desktops and laptops.
When it comes to handhelds, SteamOS is far superior over stock Windows.
But apparently, the Xbox handheld will be super streamlined and offer a better gaming experience on handheld. At least that’s what people who’ve tried it have mentioned.
Die israelische Armee hat mit einer Spezialeinheit die Madleen in internationalen Gewässern (illegal) geentert und das Schiff mitsamt der Besatzung entführt (illegal), um die illegale, seit 18 Jahren anhaltende, Blockade Gazas. Wohl um zu verhindern dass ein Präzedenzfall geschaffen wird. Die Armee hat Bilder von den Gefangenen veröffentlicht, machen sich über sie lustig. Das ist natürlich auch illegal.
@bifouba Darauf hat sich Alonoso Gurmendi auch bezogen und als nicht mehr anwendbar verworfen (wenn ich ihn richtig verstanden habe) Mittlerweile hat sich ja einiges im int. Recht weiterentwickelt. Und es mangelt ja bereits an einer schlüssigen legalen Begründung warum man das Schiff blockieren will.
Natürlich kann man sich irgendwelche abwegigen Dinge konstruieren, und die Fans des Staats Israel werden das sicher tun.
Das Schiff ist in UK registriert, damit ergibt sich eine Zuständigkeit des ICC.
Ich denke wenn es sich nicht um Greta Thunberg, die französische EU-Abgeordnete Rima Hassan und weitere Menschen aus mehreren Ländern dabei gewesen wären dann wäre das ganze wahrscheinlich schlimmer abgelaufen.
Für den Staat Israel ist es wirklich schlechte PR.
Gestern sind jede Menge Menschen in Gaza getötet wurden, während insbesondere deutsche Accounts, denen die Lage der Menschen in Gaza sonst halt einfach mal völlig egal ist, sich an ihren hämischen Kommentaren über Greta Thunberg und die anderen von der Madleen regelrecht aufgegeilt haben. Extrem peinlich. Aber das ist halt angenehmer als sich mit der Lage vor Ort zu befassen.

A new paper criticizes the capabilities of LLMs in reasoning and formal logic. It builds on previous arguments made by Gary Marcus and Subbarao Kambhampati about LLMs' limitations in generalizing beyond their training distribution.
The paper argues that LLMs are not a substitute for well-specified conventional algorithms and have limitations that are becoming clearer. The the field of neural networks is not dead, but the current approach has clear limitations.
Just a reminder that Nobel-prize winning PCR (1983), used in basically any genetic tech today, was only possible because of an extremophile bacterium discovered in 1964 in Yellowstone funded by a small ~$80k NSF grant with no obvious application at the time. The value of basic #science cannot be predicted and often is realized decades after it's done.

Worth remembering that the IDF killed nine people on the Freedom Flotilla in 2010, and injured thirty, so it's not as bad as it could have been. Maybe the high profile of Greta Thunberg helped.
But as they say, it's not about this boat or these activists. It's about the people, including the children and the little babies, starving to death in Gaza as Israel calculatedly denies them food, and locks up the measly trickle they are allowing in behind a ghoulish series of death traps. Good on the Flotilla activists for trying to shine a spotlight on that #FreePalestine 🇵🇸
