#Palestine / Israel expands censorship enforcement against missile strike documentation
The “unauthorized” footage of the Iranian ballistic missile strike on Bazan factories in #Haifa - which killed three workers - prompted the crackdown. The new order enables the prosecution of citizens and media for sharing unauthorized footage of missile impacts, drone strikes, and military installations. Violators face prosecution for “severe harm to state security” with authorities vowing swift action against those “assisting enemies.“
The EU sanctioned me and my media outlet for covering Palestine protests in Germany. It’s part of Europe’s growing authoritarianism and militarism, cloaked in language of fighting disinformation and defending democracy.
The EU has created a model of repression that is rapidly expanding. Today it targets Palestine solidarity journalism. Tomorrow it could be
reporters covering mass strikes, climate uprisings, or anti-austerity protests.

"Israel must win every war" : Along the Green Line, E02
In the second episode of Along the Green Line, reporter Matthew Cassel heads north to the occupied West Bank, visiting Tulkarm, a Palestinian city under siege by Israeli forces. Tens of thousands of residents have been forced from their homes, but just over the border in Israel, residents here are experiencing a very different reality.
In this three-part series we're traveling along the 1949 Armistice line or ‘Green Line,’ - once seen as the best hope for a resolution - and meeting Palestinians and Israelis living just kilometres apart.

Maintaining P&H Cranes: OEM Parts vs. Aftermarket Alternatives
Scheduled maintenance is essential for keeping cranes running smoothly, minimizing downtime, and ensuring safety. But when it's time to replace parts during these intervals, a key question arises: should you stick with OEM parts or consider third-party options?
For P&H crane operators, this decision is particularly important due to the equipment's complex engineering. Whether you're overseeing operations or performing repairs, the parts you choose impact performance and costs. Let's dive into the debate.
Why Maintenance Schedules Matter
P&H cranes follow servicing schedules based on operating hours, workload, and site conditions. Skipping these intervals can lead to hydraulic breakdowns, worn drivetrains, or structural damage. Regular maintenance prevents these issues by addressing wear before it escalates.
During servicing, though, the choice between OEM and third-party parts becomes a critical consideration.
OEM Parts: The Trusted Standard?
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts come from the crane's original builder. For P&H crane parts, this ensures components are designed to the machine's exact specifications. Benefits include:
- Perfect compatibility. No need for modifications or workarounds.
- Reliable quality. OEM parts meet the crane's original performance standards.
- Warranty assurance. Using OEM parts often preserves warranty coverage.
However, OEM parts can be expensive, and for older P&H cranes, they may be hard to source due to limited stock or supply chain disruptions.
Third-Party Parts: A Budget-Friendly Option?
Third-party parts, or aftermarket components, are made by independent manufacturers. They're generally more affordable and accessible, especially through a specialized crane parts supplier that carries parts for P&H and other brands.
Potential risks to consider:
- Inconsistent quality. Some aftermarket parts are excellent; others may fall short.
- Fit challenges. Slight variations can lead to installation issues.
- Limited OEM support. You may depend on the supplier for technical guidance.
Despite these concerns, many operations use third-party parts effectively for routine components like filters, seals, or hydraulic hoses, especially when sourced from a reputable crane parts supplier.
P&H Crane Parts: Balancing Quality and Availability
P&H cranes are built for tough jobs, but their intricate systems require precise components. For critical parts like slew gears, hydraulic pumps, or control systems, many owners opt for OEM P&H crane parts to ensure safety and performance.
For older P&H models, however, OEM parts can be scarce. Third-party crane parts suppliers step in, offering aftermarket solutions designed for legacy cranes. Some suppliers even produce reverse-engineered P&H crane parts that rival OEM standards, providing a cost-effective alternative.
Making an Informed Choice
Here's a straightforward approach to choosing parts:
Go with OEM parts when:
- Your crane is still under warranty.
- You're replacing high-risk components like boom assemblies or safety systems.
- You've had issues with third-party parts in the past.
Consider third-party parts when:
- You're maintaining an older P&H crane with limited OEM support.
- The part is non-critical, like gaskets, belts, or wear strips.
- Your crane parts supplier has a strong reputation for quality and reliability.
The Importance of Skilled Installation
Whether you choose OEM or third-party P&H crane parts, proper installation is crucial. A poorly installed part can fail quickly, regardless of its quality. Use technicians with experience servicing P&H cranes, preferably those familiar with your model.
Document all maintenance thoroughly—parts used, service dates, and operating hours. This helps with compliance and spotting early warning signs of trouble.
Closing Thoughts
The OEM vs. third-party debate for P&H crane parts hinges on your specific circumstances. OEM parts are ideal for critical systems, while third-party options offer savings and availability, particularly for older equipment.
Most P&H owners benefit from a hybrid strategy: OEM for high-stakes components and a trusted crane parts supplier for routine parts. Whatever you choose, never skip scheduled servicing—it's the foundation of a reliable crane.

Verified apps are an implicit guarantee that this thing is as the developer intended. What app verification isn't, is a guarantee that the package you're downloading is safe, or has no security problems.
If the repo has been hacked, if one of the maintainers for the app is malicious, then the official package will also contain that code.
The security argument will often be used to push people towards distro packages instead of flatpaks and snaps, but this is also not really how things work.
The general view of distro packages is that they can be safer, because there's a trusted maintainer that will create the package, and thus can detect any unwanted change, backdoor, or problem, and prevent you from getting the infected or buggy version of the package.
This is not really the case though.
Log4J, the recent SSH vulnerability, the XZ backdoor, and basically every CVE ever discovered points to the fact that maintainers DO NOT do security reviews on most packages they build. That's not what is expected of them either. A lot of maintainers aren't developers and couldn't conduct these audits in the first place.
unixdigest.com/articles/how-se…
flameeyes.blog/2022/02/15/on-t…
Another big misconception is around the sandbox for Flatpaks and snaps. A sandbox basically just means that the app you're running has a system of permissions that limits what the app can do, and how it can interact with the system. It CAN be more secure than not having a sandbox, but it doesn't mean it IS always more secure.
Another example of the sandbox not doing anything to protect the user is with the recent scam crypto apps on the snap store: these WERE sandboxed, because they scammed you through a web view, a website basically.
Another common misconception around packages is how dependencies work. You'll often read that distro packages use the system dependencies, and thus use less disk space, and are more secure, because you know that the library the app relies upon is updated by your distro, compared to a flatpak, snap or AppImage, where the dev might have bundled a dependency on their own, and never bothered to update it.
First, you CAN check which versions of dependencies the package comes with. A flatpak is open, you can see how it's built. Second, distro packages aren't always up to date either: just because it's a shared library doesn't mean it has all the latest security fixes.
This example will be clearer: MariaDB got a security update in 2021 in November. While Arch and Artix updated things the same day, Debian took 3 months to apply it, and Alpine took 4. Same goes for fixed linux kernel versions: when your distro is locked to a specific kernel version, it's been factually proven that this version becomes more and more buggy and vulnerable over time, as maintainers simply don't apply every fix, and don't backport everything. For example, the current RHEL 8.8 kernel had more then 4500 bugs open that have fixes in later kernel releases.

A new kind of war has just been normalised through global responses to Israeli aggression: threshold war, in which nuclear states conduct wars of aggression against almost-nuclear opponents out of fear that the latter will obtain weapons that reshape geopolitical power balances, while the potential targets of such aggression are incentivised to rush towards acquiring these weapons to avoid the very threat of such aggressive actions.
Also being normalised: attacks on nuclear facilities.

La IA como compañera y herramienta de programación
Llevo unas semanas usando la IA como herramienta de programación en mis proyectos, he aprendido a manejar los agentes de IA que son un paso más en la evolución de la inteligencia artificial; parecidos al agente Smith de Matrix, los agentes son modelos de IA que pueden tomar decisiones por ellos mismos, evaluar resultados y actuar en consecuencia, llegando incluso a autocorregirse.
Con ayuda de los agentes se pueden crear proyectos de software desde cero con unas simples órdenes, basándonos en un código con buenas prácticas y/o seguridad. Algo a lo que creo que ningún programador llegará por muchos años de experiencia que tenga. El discurso negacionista de la IA se irá diluyendo conforme se adapten los trabajos a esta herramienta, o se corre el riesgo de ser un parado digital más.
Hoy han cambiado las políticas de uso de GitHub Copilot, y ya no será ilimitado como hasta ahora, todo lo bueno se acaba. Mientras tanto me ha dado tiempo a refactorizar proyectos, crear temas y plugins de wordpress, empezar nuevos proyectos como ringnet.cloud o comenzar a implementar un kernel desde cero en rust basado en Linux. Las posibilidades son infinitas si esta herramienta sabe usarse correctamente, no solo ahorrará trabajo sino que lo potenciará con una alta calidad y eso depende de nosotros. Saludos 👋

Of the 89 injured in Gush Dan, three were seriously injured, two moderately injured, 40 lightly injured from shrapnel and blast waves, 31 were injured on their way to protected areas, and 13 are defined as anxiety casualties. They were evacuated to Sheba Tel Hashomer, Schneider, Beilinson, Ichilov, Assaf Harofeh, Wolfson, Meir, Ma’ayanei Hayeshua, Assuta Ashdod, and Barzilai hospitals.

in reply to oatmeal • • •When Israelis are killed or injured, there are detailed news reports describing the human impact - the destroyed homes, the search for survivors, the families desperately looking for loved ones, the personal stories that make the tragedy real and relatable. The media coverage allows for mourning, memorialization, and public empathy.
Meanwhile, Palestinian casualties are often reduced to sterile numbers in news reports, if they're reported at all. The destruction of entire neighborhoods in Gaza, the families wiped out, the children killed - these stories rarely receive the same detailed, humanizing coverage that would allow readers to grasp the full scope of the tragedy or for Palestinians to have their grief recognized and witnessed by the world.
From a Haaretz report on the direct hit on an apartment building in Bat Yam:
[...] Just minutes after the impact, the building's facade spilled into the street – melted and burning, like after a volcanic eruption. In front of the facade stood charred cars that were crushed by the blast. Dust, smoke, water flowing everywhere, shattered glass and lost people made it clear that Jerusalem Street had suddenly become a disaster zone. "They found his phone with blood on it," one of the street residents told Haaretz as he tried to locate his friend. "I don't know where he is, I believe he was killed." Others stood before Home Front Command personnel who were maintaining handwritten lists of names, telling them who lived where, who was home and who wasn't. Hundreds of soldiers were deployed at the building site, searching for survivors.

Iran's Revolutionary Guards claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that Microsoft's offices in Be'er Sheva were deliberately targeted due to their "close collaboration with the Israeli military."
In #Gaza, Microsoft's AI services are reportedly being used by the Israeli military in the creation of the infamous crude "kill lists".
Despite official denials, usage of Microsoft's AI has reportedly increased significantly, coinciding with intensified military operations and a rising civilian death toll.
The International Court of Justice's ongoing investigation into potential genocide has brought increased scrutiny to technology companies involved in Israel's military operations in Gaza.

in reply to oatmeal • • •Reminder: IBM and the Holocaust
#IBM’s punch card technology facilitated German atrocities during the #Holocaust, enabling precise targeting, logistical coordination, and detailed record-keeping of victims. Historian Edwin Black asserts, "without IBM’s machinery, continuing upkeep and service, as well as the supply of punch cards," the scale of the genocide would have been impossible.

in reply to oatmeal • • •[follow up] Israel expands military censorship to foreign media and social networks with new emergency order
Israeli Chief Military Censor issued an emergency order requiring all media outlets - Israeli and foreign - plus social media operators to seek prior approval before publishing missile impact locations. The order targets coverage of Iranian strikes and extends censorship rules to international networks and social platforms.
Police have already shut down broadcasts by #AP and #Reuters, claiming their footage was used by Al Jazeera. Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi said the order resulted from collaboration with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir to "close holes" in coverage by foreign networks.
Legal experts question the order's enforceability, particularly for social media users and foreign outlets. Israel's military censorship reached record levels in 2024, with over 8,000 articles banned or partially censored - more than double previous peaks.
The Government Press Office initially issued a misleading statement suggesting much broader censorship powers than the order actually contains, later calling this an error.

While Israeli media is reporting how successful Israel's air forces were at neutralizing launch sites, launch operators, and scientists, #Iran launched 23 missiles targeting areas across #Israel from north to south.
A direct hit in #Haifa injured 30 people, including a 16-year-old critically wounded by shrapnel and two others moderately injured. The strike damaged high-rise buildings, offices, and shops after hitting a parking garage.
In southern areas, interceptor debris caused significant damage to two houses but no casualties. Officials noted most injuries occurred among people not in protected spaces during alerts.
