Every single city in the US should be watching LA right now and deciding how we're going to defend our communities.

Are you okay with the Feds coming into your neighborhood and dragging people away to detention camps?

If not, the time to resist is upon us. If all of our communities do the same, if we band together to protect our people, they do not have the necessary strength to be everywhere all at once, and they certainly don't have what it takes to occupy our cities long-term.

My laptop and my desktop run Fedora workstation 38 with GNOME 44.

For my servers, I have one running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. It's used for my Nextcloud server, it's hosted on Linode, and it's the backbone of all my digital life and the channel. My other server is used to host my podcast, the Linux and Open SOurce News podcast. That server is hosted on Linode, and runs Debian 11.

I also run HoloISO on a PC in my living room, that serves as my Linux gaming console.

First thing is Nextcloud. As I said, it's installed as a Snap, and it works beautifully. I don't get the updates as soon as they're out, but when I do get them, they're very well tested and I never had any issues with it. I'm currently on version 26.0.4, so Nextcloud Hub 4, not 5.

I mostly use Nextcloud as the platform to handle all my online accounts. It hosts my calendar, contacts, tasks, photos, notes, RSS feeds, passwords, and I also use it to share files with sponsors, or to share the link to the weekly patroncast I make for patrons and youtube members.

My other server hosts my podcast, using YUNOHOST and their Castopod app. Yunohost is a very simple, graphical dashboard to run one or many server applications, it basically just simplifies hosting stuff and has pre packaged apps to install stuff in one click.

To interact with other Nextcloud related stuff, I use a few apps. The first one is Iotas, it's a GTK application that plugs into Nextcloud notes and lets you take, well, notes, in simple, distraction free markdown. For RSS feeds, I use Newsflash, which is another GTK app.

I also, of course, use the Nextcloud desktop client to sync all my files to and from my computers, plus the Nautilus Nextcloud integration so I can generate a shared link for any file straight from the file manager. For tasks, I use Endeavour.

And on my phone, I also use the Nextcloud app to send all my photos automatically from my phone to a folder that is then synced to all my computers, and I use the official Nextcloud Notes app to have access to my scripts while I'm recording.

For audio, I use Audacity. It looks like crap, it's very old, but it does the trick, it has the 3 effects I need, a noise reduction tool, a compressor, and a normalizing tool.

For my thumbnails, it's obviously GIMP. It has a bad reputation among people who are familiar with photoshop, but as I've never used that thing, GIMP is really easy to use for me

And for recording my screen, it's OBS on every device.

When I happen upon an image I want to use that uses a format Resolve doesn't support, like WebP or AVIF, I use Converter to convert it to PNG. For converting video files, I use ffmpeg in a terminal.

And when I need to re download one of my old videos that I didn't backup, I use Parabolic.

Now for a few smaller utilities. FOr virtual machines, I generally run them using GNOME Boxes, because it's really simple.

For my backups, I use Pika Backup. I also use Safing's portmaster. For editing text, I generally just use Nano in a terminal.

For music, I use YTM Music, because I pay for Youtube Premium to avoid ads on my TV, and it comes with a music streaming service, so might as well use it.

I won't talk much about the web browser, it's Firefox everywhere, even on my phone.

For my office suite, I use LIbreOffice, everyone knows about it.

For email and calendar, I moved to Thunderbird, seeing as version 115 is absolutely wonderful and well designed.

I'm in the hospital reading about whats going on in the Cali insurrection and im wondering where is that Patriot front fed group? They travel all over the place , talking about preventing or fighting to stop things like this . Seems like a perfect time and place for them to appear. Doesn't it? I bet they gave the rioters in la same riot gear they gave the Fed klan guys . Its all so staged for manipulation of hate and violence. I bet the 93 billion Biden spent in his last days funding it all

she's getting better day by day . There is definitely brain fog and motor skill degradation. Especially with her hands she can't hold a pen or type. But hey she's here and alive and thank God for every bit of bonus time we get with her. We still have to get a chairlift installed as well bc her legs are damaged from the initial anti biotic they gave her. Sorry I ramble. We can just blame it Gary with the silent Greg in his name lol

I deleted everything.

Every note in Obsidian. Every carefully crafted "second brain."

Every Apple Note.

Every to do list.

Every article on my "read later" list.

Every productivity system I'd built over years. Gone in seconds.

And I felt zero panic. Just an overwhelming sense of relief.

Fellow Europeans who look on in horror at what Trump is trying to do in the US should know that the EU has essentially been doing this for years: helping to return people to places where they know they'll likely be tortured: hrw.org/the-day-in-human-right…

« Vous croyez que les Américains et les Anglais ont débarqué en Normandie pour nous faire plaisir ? Ce qu’ils voulaient, c’était glisser vers le nord le long de la mer, pour détruire les bases des V1 et des V2, prendre Anvers et, de là, donner l’assaut à l’Allemagne. Paris et la France ne les intéressaient pas. Leur stratégie, c’était d’atteindre la Ruhr, qui était l’arsenal, et de ne pas perdre un jour en chemin. (…) Les Américains ne se souciaient pas plus de libérer la France que les Russes de libérer la Pologne. »

Charles #deGaulle à Alain #Peyrefitte, après le Conseil des ministres du 10 juin #1964.

Quelque mois plus tôt et alors qu’on fait pression sur de Gaulle pour commémorer le 20e anniversaire du débarquement de Normandie, il dira à Peyrefitte dans le Salon doré de l’Élysée, à la fin du Conseil des ministres du 30 octobre 1963 :

« Le débarquement du #6juin, ç’a été l’affaire des Anglo-Saxons, d’où la France a été exclue. Ils étaient bien décidés à s’installer en France comme en territoire ennemi ! Comme ils venaient de le faire en Italie et comme ils s’apprêtaient à le faire en Allemagne ! Ils avaient préparé leur #AMGOT, qui devait gouverner souverainement la France à mesure de l’avance de leurs armées. Ils avaient imprimé leur fausse monnaie, qui aurait eu cours forcé. Ils se seraient conduits en pays conquis.
C’est exactement ce qui se serait passé si je n’avais pas imposé, oui imposé, mes commissaires de la République, mes préfets, mes sous-préfets, mes comités de libération ! Et vous voudriez que j’aille commémorer leur débarquement, alors qu’il était le prélude à une seconde occupation du pays ? Non, non, ne comptez pas sur moi ! Je veux bien que les choses se passent gracieusement, mais ma place n’est pas là !

Et puis, ça contribuerait à faire croire que, si nous avons été libérés, nous ne le devons qu’aux Américains. Ça reviendrait à tenir la Résistance pour nulle et non avenue. Notre défaitisme naturel n’a que trop tendance à adopter ces vues. Il ne faut pas y céder ! (…) Allons, allons, Peyrefitte ! Il faut avoir plus de mémoire que ça ! Il faut commémorer la France, et non les Anglo-Saxons ! Je n’ai aucune raison de célébrer ça avec éclat. Dites-le à vos journalistes. »

La commémoration du 20e anniversaire du débarquement de Normandie sera minimaliste. En revanche, de Gaulle fera organiser une monumentale revue navale dans le port de Toulon pour célébrer le 20e anniversaire du débarquement de Provence du 15 août 1944.

Cette revue navale du 15 août 1964 sera suivie d’un défilé militaire des troupes françaises, auquel ont été invitées des unités américaines et britanniques.

Kudos to @arstechnica here, demonstrating how to report on a press release without parroting it. That extends to the headline, arguably the most important place not to just swallow the PR dept’s framing:

After AI setbacks, Meta bets billions on undefined “superintelligence”

arstechnica.com/information-te…

"I have made an art out of the indefinite. When I was young, if you asked me what I did for a living, I might try to discourage your curiosity by telling you I was a deckhand on a fishing boat or a small-time criminal, a standover man or a fence. And I might actually have been, then. Nowadays, I am retired. No-one is interested in what old people do.

"I am not really retired. I can’t afford to be. There are few days in which I am idle. But little of what I do fits into the hold-all of a single occupation and none of it is shaped by conventional ambition. I might more easily tell you what I am not than what I am. But even then, probably, I’d be contradicted by my own history..."

Si le ciel n'est pas aussi bleu qu'il devrait l'être aujourd'hui en France, il y a une raison : des incendies au Canada dégagent des fumées importantes qui ont traversé l'Atlantique et se retrouvent en France.

C'est visible un peu partout, de la Haute-Savoie à un petit village de Provence où je me trouve actuellement. Le graphique ci-dessous sur Météo-Paris montre bien le phénomène.

According to Wikipedia, the Pantsir shoots small missiles with radar or optical guidance. No idea why it missed.

I watch this one history yt channel that goes through the moment to moment details of various battles. One thing I learned from that is that things just go wrong all the time in wars. Missiles fail to launch, radars malfunction or aren't properly calibrated, a manufacturing defect turns a potent weapon into a dud, etc.

Palantir Technologies: Use, Abuse Potential, and Leadership Mindset
southfloridaconservative.com/p…

Palantir Technologies provides data fusion and analysis platforms (Gotham, Foundry) that empower government and corporate clients to conduct mass-scale data integration, surveillance, and predictive analysis.

While nominally designed to serve national security and public interest, the architecture of Palantir systems enables potential weaponization against domestic populations and political targets, with limited technical safeguards.

Further, the philosophy and worldview of Palantir’s founder-class leadership — especially Peter Thiel — supports a strategic posture where surveillance is considered necessary and desirable, privacy is secondary, and loyalty to traditional liberal democratic values is conditional.
