MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) said on Monday that it had stopped the activities of an international group involved in THE preparation of smuggling of aviation equipment abroad, including to Ukraine.
Donald Trump se transforme de + en + en clown. Il menace la Russie de nouvelles sanctions pour soi-disant arrêter l'effusion de sang, mais ne brandit aucune menace contre Netadémon qui commet un génocide à Gaza. C'est ça son combat contre le DeepState ?
Faut il refuser de croire que les forces armées d’un État dirigé par un homme sous mandat d’arrêt de la CPI puissent arrêter une élue française — sans que la France son pays ne dise un mot.

Scott Horton's speech to the Tbilisi Summer Forum on June 6th No offense, but Georgia's interests are just none of my affair. It's such a long way from here.
Donald Trump’s “Border Czar” Tom Homan said Saturday the administration is planning to send in the National Guard Saturday evening to quell protests in Los Angeles.
“This is about enforcing the law, and again, we’re not going to apologize for doing it,” Homan said on Fox News. He continued: “We’re already ahead of the game. We were already mobilizing. We’re gonna bring National Guard in tonight. We’re gonna continue doing our job. We’re gonna push back on these people, and we’re gonna [enforce] the law.”
On Saturday night, following Homan’s on-camera remarks, both national Democratic and Republican figures were scrambling to figure out if he was just mouthing off, or if the federal troops were actually on their way, or just … what the hell was going on.
Two Trump administration officials say they learned about the alleged National Guard plans from journalists such as Rolling Stone’s who had reached out to them on Saturday evening, asking for clarification.
Homan did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment.
“The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) wrote on Bluesky Saturday evening. “That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.”
He added, “LA authorities are able to access law enforcement assistance at a moment’s notice. We are in close coordination with the city and county, and there is currently no unmet need. The Guard has been admirably serving LA throughout recovery. This is the wrong mission and will erode public trust.”
The president can request, but not order, a governor to deploy their state’s National Guard. The governor can refuse the request, and Trump would not be allowed under the Constitution to send National Guard troops to California from other states. However, the Trump administration has previously mulled invoking the Insurrection Act, which could allow the president to deploy the U.S. military domestically, federalize the National Guard, and send in troops to quell uprisings or civil disorder.
The 2nd option is likely the goal. Inflaming tensions and overreacting makes the administration look like it's tough on crime to his base. Escalating a peaceful protest into a conflict can easily be spun into "the good guys are fighting the violent illegal criminals". The people that elected Trump want a strongman dictator and he's happy to show them that. Even the politically apathetic might see the conflict as "both sides went too far".
The European Union thought the 2023 election of Donald Tusk as Prime Minister of Poland solved their Poland problem. But the June 2 election of Karol Nawrocki as President shows they were wrong.

Hello, recent Reddit convert here and I'm loving it. You even inspired me to figure out how to fully dump Windows and install LineageOS.
One thing I can't understand is the level of acrimony toward LLMs. I see things like "stochastic parrot", "glorified autocomplete", etc. If you need an example, the comments section for the post on Apple saying LLMs don't reason is a doozy of angry people: infosec.pub/post/29574988
While I didn't expect a community of vibecoders, I am genuinely curious about why LLMs strike such an emotional response with this crowd. It's a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying (Veo 3) in a few years and I am personally concerned about many of the safety/control issues in the future.
So I ask: what is the real reason this is such an emotional topic for you in particular? My personal guess is that the claims about replacing software engineers is the biggest issue, but help me understand.
Are you fucking Moses? Then how the fuck did you manage to turn your Windows Machine into an android phone?
is the level of acrimony toward LLMs.
Good, since you apparantly arent able to use your brain, I'm gonna speed run it real quick: - Its frying the planet - its generating way to much slop, making anyone unable to find true non hallucinated information - its a literal PsyOP - it's rotting peoples critical thinking - its being shoved down everyone's throat, tho it can't even generate simple things. - people are using it to slood FOSS projects.
such an emotional response with this crowd.
Its not emotional, its just having the same negative experience over and over and over again
It's a tool that has gone from interesting (GPT3) to terrifying
The only thing that's terrifying about it us peoples brain rotting away their critical thinking
** à Los Angeles** pas été surpris par les émeutes ou la violence. Pas même la sévérité de la gestion de cette crise #trump ; l'homme n'éprouve que des sentiments de haine envers cet État démocratique libéral, et l'État lui rend le même sentiment, car il rejette sa politique, en particulier celle liée à la persécution des immigrés illégaux, et va jusqu'à leur fournir une protection et leur accorder tous leurs droits.
La Californie regorge d’immigrants pacifiques qui considèrent la politique de Trump comme une menace directe pour leur tissu social.
Ce qui se passe aujourd’hui n’est pas inhabituel ; c’est un conflit naturel, le résultat de politiques qui persécutent les immigrants illégaux – dont la majorité sont d’origine latino – qui ont créé des communautés soudées dans l’État.
Mais ce qui est anormal, c'est que Trump outrepasse l'autorité de l'État et envoie la Garde nationale sans coordination avec le gouverneur, malgré les déclarations de ce dernier selon lesquelles la police est capable de contenir les manifestations et qu'il n'y a pas besoin d'intervention militaire. Le plus alarmant est que Trump ne s’est pas arrêté là, mais a menacé d’envoyer l’armée américaine et de couper le financement fédéral à l’État.
Il ne s’agit pas d’un président autoritaire menaçant ses adversaires à l’étranger, mais plutôt d’un président menaçant d’utiliser l’armée dans son pays contre son propre peuple.
Sous Trump, l’Amérique ne restera plus la même, et le monde ne restera plus le même.

Helloo, firstly this might be long post about people talking void linux hasnt much packages in opposite of arch which has aur, so i will try conveince some people to void linux and will tell also something about package managers.
Package manager is a thing that keeps organized all programs on your pc, normally you would have to go to site, download .deb or .tar.xz and etc. package manager takes cares of doing that and manager also integrates this package with system, so when theres update and something is added or deleted, package manager will take care of all.
Okay, so if its only downloading then why AUR has 97587 packages, and XBPS-SRC (void linux - aur alternative kinda) has much less? It's because AUR is community, anyone can maintain some package, XBPS-SRC also has community but by pulling requests to merge TEMPLATES, but that doesn't mean u can't add your own TEMPLATES.
Wait, wait, wait, what are TEMPLATES?
Its kind of script which makes Package manager do its thing. Templates in XBPS-src and "PKGBUILD?" in AUR are similar.
We have to tell in this script: what package, what version, give link to download and etc.
Okay, but still AUR has much much more packages than xbps-src, why should i use it then? Why should i learn how to make templates?
I hope you don't use AUR blindly and just do yay -S something without looking what pkgbuild is doing, it might be dangerous not knowing what program can do and what script that is downloading it too right? XBPS-SRC learns you how to maintain packages.
Also theres way to share Templates with other by importing REPO of some templates, like librewolf-void repo and etc. So there's way to share packages.
So this is my way to conveince you to use void linux 😀. IN MY OPINION, void is what people think arch is. A diy distro with learning curve to understand how OS works. ARCH is great!, but void gives you more knowledge of what things systemd takes care.
To make thing little bit funnier theres easy and really nice (experimental and not official) script of installing void :
https://github.com/kkrruumm/void-install-script
THANK YOU FOR READING! I might not be clear or right in some things so tell me about that in comment, i will read everything.
Thank you for your comment, maybe people wont read 1:1 code, atleast they will learn how this kinda works, because now they just install things, but looking at templates they can actually understand its kinda simple script and get the idea of how it works. Also i wasn't comparing exactly xbps main void repos to AUR but overall xbps-src to aur, which can be similar because people can share templates, anyway we should still understand what package manager does and what download scripts are doing. Also void has runit so this mean u have to get more simple programs to run system like seatd dbus and etc. So overall i 2 arguments of void being better in understand of OS is actually knowing how to maintain packages and how system works from boot. Anyway i understand it is your opinion, all i can is tell u my opinion.
Edit: when i used systemd my system booted in 13sec, now on runit its 8sec, not really important thing but still
Since I've left my last job, I've been thinking about the guy who used me as an alternative to ChatGPT whenever he hit a problem that he couldn't vibe code the answer out of at work.
He basically rotted his own brain by compulsively using ChatGPT in lieu of actually thinking with most any of the projects he was working on. Instead of taking the time to read through code in our framework, look up documentation, or do any sort of debugging, he instead just begged and pleaded with ChatGPT to try and get somewhere because "it was faster." Basically just really hammering his brain with the Programmer's Slot Machine. (@davidgerard wrote a really good article here about this specific gambling addiction angle here. I highly highly recommend reading/watching the corresponding YouTube video: pivot-to-ai.com/2025/06/05/gen… )
Back to the story; When that wasn't working, which was a significant portion of the time, he'd then just turn and use me as a "more informed alternative" to ChatGPT.
I worked fully remote and the majority of our interactions was via a Teams chat. which apparently crossed some wires in his monkey brain and made him start just... Basically verbally barraging me like he would with the company ChatGPT instance. No thoughts at all, just an immediate process of:
- Ask vague question - Get guess for an answer with a request for more details - Try applying the guess blindly without thinking if it's applicable at all - Have it not work and just report back that it didn't work. - No follow-up details, no further explanation of what was going on or what he's trying to do. Nothing added past the original vague situation - If lucky, I might get a screenshot of part of the error, meticulously sliced before it gave something useful in the output because he stopped reading error output to things and made no attempt to understand it. (Why? ChatGPT can do that part!) - Rinse and Repeat until I get fed up and get into a call with him - Fix the thing in less than a minute, pointing out that he should have been able to tell what was wrong almost immediately if he actually dropped a break-point and debugged the code at *literally any point* along the way - Fuck off immediately after getting his fix, no thank you or anything - start the process anew the following day when he vibe coded himself into a corner all over again
I literally had to go to leadership and make them have a talk with him and get him to leave me the fuck alone at work, after repeated attempts to establish boundaries about it, due to how much time it sucked out of me being able to work on other projects. Effectively just doubling up my work and slamming me with burn out right at the start of the year for absolutely no reason other than his belligerent insistence to just Not Do His Job Without His Hand Being Held By A Chat Window.
It rapidly went from a "He sometimes asks informed questions that I can answer and help him with. I enjoy working with him" to "The dude isn't even trying in the slightest and is now basically offloading his work onto me because he broke his capacity to actually do work independently of an external chat window. I fucking hate him and I hope he gets in a car wreck so I can get a break from the bleakness of dealing with him every goddamn morning"
ChatGPT has basically just been an absolute blight for me since it's inception. Going from the team being generally pro-crypto to intensely pro-genAI/LLM because their favorite scammers (er.. I mean YouTubers) had them hooked on a fantasy of some day making it Big by jumping from one Hype cycle to the next. I sincerely was very close to just finding an entirely different career path altogether because of just how incredibly shitty it was working with that team on just about anything, but lacking the job experience on the resume to land someplace else.
Nobody wanted to be an actual expert, nobody really wanted to learn anything. They had their degree and ChatGPT, which means they learned all they ever will need. ...While working in an industry that tends to re-invent itself every half decade or so while half-assing solutions with an outsourced bullshit generator. 🫠
All in the name of "Well it got me from point A to point B faster." and leaving it at that, despite taking significantly longer than they should have from the get go over it.
I've seen and lived what an AI Fueled future looks like: Mediocre men harassing their talented and likely autistic peers until their peers just up and fuckin leave to a different organization out of frustration and exhaustion.
I think down the road, we'll be able to measure the negative impact using LLMs has on people's cognitive faculties by comparing it to horse kicks to the head, and only be exaggerating it by a little bit.
You’ll have noticed how previously normal people start acting like addicts to their favourite generative AI and shout at you like you’re trying to take their cocaine away. Matthias Döpm…

An:poststelle@auswaertiges-amt.de Betreff: Dringende Bitte sich für die Freilassung der Aktivist*innen auf der Madleen einzusetzen
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren und alle dazwischen und außerhalb,
mit großer Sorge verfolge ich die aktuelle Mission des zivilen Hilfsschiffs Madleen, das am 1. Juni 2025 vom Hafen in Catania (Sizilien) in Richtung Gaza aufgebrochen ist. Die Mission der Freedom Flotilla Coalition verfolgt ausschließlich humanitäre Ziele.
An Bord befinden sich Hilfsgüter wie Babynahrung, medizinische Ausrüstung, Hygieneartikel sowie Prothesen für verletzte Kinder.
Unter den Teilnehmerinnen befinden sich unter anderem die Klimaaktivistin Greta Thunberg, die französische Europaabgeordnete Rima Hassan und die deutsche Menschenrechtsaktivistin sowie Staatsbürgerin Yasemin Acar, die sich seit Jahren für Geflüchtete und humanitäre Belange engagiert. Der israelische Verteidigungsminister Katz hatte bereits gewarnt, die Reise der Madleen mit allen Mitteln zu verhindern. Nun ist genau das passiert.
Angesichts der unrechtmäßigen Festnahme der Aktivist*innen in internationalen Gewässern, bitte ich Sie dringend, sich für den Schutz und die Freilassung von Yasemin Acar und den anderen Aktivist innen einzusetzen. Die deutsche Regierung hat eine Pflicht zum Schutz ihrer Staatsbürger*innen weltweit vor Repression und unrechtmäßiger Festnahme.
Bitte helfen Sie mit, weiteres menschliches Leid zu verhindern. Die Menschen auf der Madleen handelten gewaltfrei und mit rein humanitären Absichten. Sie verdienen Schutz, auch seitens der Bundesrepublik Deutschland.
Unterschreibt die Petitionen an das Auswärtige Amt mit der Forderung sich dafür einzusetzen Greta Thunberg, Yasemin Acar und alle anderen Aktivist*innen der Freedom Flotilla zu befreien!
Die Behauptung Greta Thunberg würde humanitäre Hilfe nur als Selbstinszenierung nach Gaza bringen ist eine extrem lächerliche Aussage.
Die israelische Regierung darf keine Menschen in internationalen Gewässern festnehmen. Die IDF hat keine Jurisdiktion über den Gazastreifen. Alles was hier geschieht ist höchstgradig verstoßend gegen das Völkerrecht und Aktivist:innen wie Greta Thunberg stellen sich in die erste Reihe um auf diese Missstände aufmerksam zu machen. Denn ALLE humanitären Hilfslieferungen werden blockiert, auch ihre. Anhand dieser Aktion sieht die gesamte Welt wie Israel sich gegen Menschenrechte zur wehr setzt um ihren Genozid durchzuführen.
Genau wie du es schreibst sagt es das israelische Außenministerium auch, aber „Selfie Yacht” ist ggf. nicht der beste Begriff den sie hätten wählen sollen, wenn man bedenkt wie viele ihrer eigenen Soldaten von Kriegsverbrechen überführt wurden Anhand von Selfies und Selbstinszenierung...
Man sieht jetzt, was passiert, wenn man sich vorher mit antisemitischen Aussagen selbst disqualifiziert. Die israelische Regierung verletzt davon unabhängig täglich Völkerrecht. Daran kann aber Greta nix ändern sondern ausschließlich Trump.

The more software you use, the larger the attack surface for your Linux install is. It's always good to take a look at all the installed applications, and libraries, and remove what you don't use anymore. You can also remove packages that aren't linked to anything else and aren't used by anything.
On Debian or Ubuntu, for example, you can find these by running sudo apt autoremove
And on a desktop, you probably already apply updates, or your distro has auto updates enabled. But on a server, it's easy to let things slide, and forget to log in regularly and make sure things are up to date. I'm guilty of that myself.
And just like with packages, libraries, and apps, you should also make sure you only run the services you actually use. You can list all services running with:
systemctl list-unit-files
To stop a service you don't need, you can run
systemctl stop SERVICE
To stop the service from starting with the system, you can run
systemctl disable SERVICE
If you're on a server, the general rule of thumb is also NOT to run a graphical desktop on it. It will often be much more secure to use SSH to log in to the server remotely.
But you might also need to secure SSH first. If you have multiple users, make sure only the ones who need it have SSH access. To do that, you can edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file, and type AllowUsers then the names of the users that will actually have access to SSH.
Now, something that might be useful in general, for a server or a desktop, is making sure all the users are correctly handled. The first thing will be to disable root login.
If you decide to disable the root account, make sure at least one user has admin privileges though, or you'll have a system without any way to access any task with sudo. Once you're certain everything is ok, you can use the following method:
Edit /etc/passwd, and change the first line, by replacing /bin/bash, or whatever other shell root currently logs into, by /sbin/nologin (or /usr/sbin/nologin depending on the distro)
If you prefer, you can simply disable root login through SSH, so the account is still there if you want it locally, but remote attackers won't be able to login as root. To do so, you can edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and uncomment the PermitRootLogin line, and then set its value to no. Restart SSH with sytemctl restart sshd, and you're done.
To remove the ability to use USB, Thunderbolt or Firewire, you can add the following lines to their respective files (create them if need be). To revert this, just remove the lines that have been added in the various files by the commands.
Add: install usb-storage /bin/true to /etc/modprobe.d/disable-usb-storage.conf Add blacklist firewire-core to /etc/modprobe.d/firewire.conf Add blacklist thunderbolt to /etc/modprobe.d/thunderbolt.conf
Linux gives you lots of ways to create complexity in passwords that include a lot more than just length, such as mixing upper- and lower-case letters with numerals and punctuation marks along with other restrictions.
“Israel has no legal authority to detain international volunteers aboard the Madleen [...] This seizure blatantly violates international law and defies the ICJ’s binding orders requiring unimpeded humanitarian access to Gaza. These volunteers are not subject to Israeli jurisdiction and cannot be criminalized for delivering aid or challenging an illegal blockade—their detention is arbitrary, unlawful, and must end immediately.”

To make D-Day a success, the Allies thought they might have to break through formidable German defences. One unconventional idea was a "giant firework".
Eine Woche vor der 1. offiziellen Militärjubelfeier- dem Veteranentag - mit der Bundeswehr vor dem Reichstagsgebäude müssen wir noch einmal auf die in unsere Köpfe geprügelte "Wende" in unseren Köpfen aufmerksam machen. Plötzlich wird wieder offen über Kriegstüchtigkeit gesprochen und oft sogar schon ein Datum für den nächsten Krieg genannt.
Angeblich will Russland ab 2029 die NATO angreifen und deshalb müssen wir unseren in den letzten 3jahren bereits verdoppelten Kriegshaushalt noch einmal mehr als verdoppeln (von 2 auf 5% des BIP). Dem Wahnsinn scheinen keine Grenzen gesetzt, denn so eine Erhöhung ist ohne weitere Einschnitte in Soziales, Bildung, Rente unmöglich.
Um diese wahnsinnigen Ziele durchzusetzen soll die Wehrpflicht - und die innere Bereitschaft bei der Jugend - erhöht werden, wie der 1. verlinkte Artikel zeigt. Lesenswert!
Im 2. verlinkten Artikel wird dann deutlich, was die Rolle Deutschlands als Kriegsschauplatz dabei sein soll. Mit Polen an der "zukünftigen Ostfront" gelegen, müssen die Brücken, Straßen und Eisenbahnlinien für den Durchmarsch der NATO Partner im Westen "resilient" sein.
Nebenbei wird dabei auch an die "Probleme" für Krankenhäuser, THW und Feuerwehr gedacht, die mit den hohen Opferzahlen überfordert sein werden. Seit der proklamierten "Zeitenwende" werden Vorschläge unter dem Label "Zivil-Militärische Zusammenarbeit" in die Debatte geworfen, die allesamt grausig sind. Auch der Bunkerbau soll wieder gefördert werden. Dabei werden die Bunker bei der nächsten Ahrtal-Katastrophe genauso absaufen wie die Häuser ...
Abgesehen von den Milliarden-Kosten für diese angebliche Resilienz, die auch in den beschlossenen "Sondervermögen" (Jahrzehnte andauernde Schulden) nicht vorhanden sind, wird es langsam Zeit die Debatte für Alternativen zur Kriegstüchtigkeit zu öffnen. Wenn dies nicht bald geschieht, machen wir selbst Deutschland wirtschaftlich, sozial und bildungsmäßig zu einer Ruine ...
Deutschland soll zur logistischen Basis der Nato werden. Ein neues Konzept plant die Umrüstung der zivilen Infrastruktur für den Kriegsfall. Was bedeutet das für die Bevölkerung?

00:00 Intro 00:29 Sponsor: Make your email private with Proton Mail 01:47 What is Iodé OS? 03:08 First Setup 04:06 ROM and App selection 07:55 Ad & Tracker Blocker 09:21 App Experience 11:20 How it compares to other DeGoogled ROMS 12:48 It's good, but it still needs work 14:41 Sponsor: Get a computer that runs Linux perfectly 15:30 Support the channel
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.
