If the spray paint was only on the outside of the aircraft's superstructure, and did not affect, say, engines or flight control surfaces sufficient to keep the aircraft on the ground, that's not terrorism

The much bigger problem this serious over-charging attempts to hide is that the RAF's base security is so piss poor, this was allowed to happen. Imagine what could have happened were these real terrorists.

Genau so einen Blödsinn setzt Springer seiner bildungsfernen Leserschaft vor – und die Leute glauben das dann einfach. Und wir wundern uns, dass sich die gehirngewaschenen Menschen den Quacksalbern zu Füßen legen, vollkommen evidenzlosen und mitunter gefährlichen Hokuspokus im Netz teilen und sich lieber wirkungslose Zuckerkugeln ins Gesicht werfen, anstatt endlich zum Arzt zu gehen.

With the recent-ish cock.li situation along with previous events surrounding it and Fedora Mail, I don't think I can trust email services run by a single guy anymore, especially if they target the imageboard crowd and/or use meme domains.

I think I'm going to use Posteo for now on. They same to go out of their way to respect user-privacy despite being for-profit and being payed means that it is less likely to be used for some bomb-threat or something like that (hopefully).

in reply to beard ひげ

@beardalaxy Cock.li got hacked due to an exploit that was recently found in RoundCube (their webmail software). It's still usable through desktop mail clients though, but that service has gone through so many security breaches and legal trouble (mostly due to VC's incompetence, and the services targeted audience) that I don't think it's trustworthy mail service outside of throw away accounts anymore.
in reply to xianc78

What happened at fedora.mail? I only saw it was always closed, and they may have recently reopened invitations.
Aside for it being connected to the post userbase, what gives?

But, in every case, I wouldn't use any of those mails for anything *respectable*. Just find a smaller but privacy conscious provider for general-purpose, and a dedicated service for *Internet friends*, maybe even spin your own for the latter

Trump zerstört die Demokratie in den USA - doch seinen Fans ist es egal, Hauptsache es gibt "Massendeportationen". Doch selbst mit grausamen und illegalen Aktionen schiebt er weniger ab als Biden. Es ist Grausamkeit nur um der Grausamkeit willen, die zeigt: Selbst das größte Versprechen der Faschisten ist eine Lüge. volksverpetzer.de/analyse/trum…

Ja, kein Scherz die Trump-Administration will Asbest zurückbringen.

Als nächstes dann Dioxin um Essen länger haltbar zu machen! Und Uran im Trinkwasser um Keime abzutöten.

Bürokratieabbau Baby!

Trump hatte eh schon immer eine merkwürdige Liebe für Asbest. Er meinte mal an 09.11 wären die Türme nicht eingestürzt, wären sie mit Asbest ausgespritzt gewesen.

P.S. Wisst ihr welches Land weltweit am meisten Asbest produziert? Russland. Zufälle gibts.

🧵 Das Hissen der Regenbogenfahne symbolisiert die Anerkennung und den Schutz queerer Menschen, wie sie im Grundgesetz garantiert sind. Gleichzeitig wird damit Solidarität mit einer gesellschaftlichen Gruppe signalisiert, die nach wie vor marginalisiert, diskriminiert, bedroht und angegriffen wird. Es ist ein Zeichen gegen Diskriminierung und für Grundrechte. Es ist nicht parteipolitisch.

MAERSK just announced they have halted all container shipping operations in and out of Haifa, the only deepwater port in Israel that’s still functioning. And just like that, Israel’s maritime logistics capabilities have all but collapsed.

With each day of Iran’s missile strikes, Israel is looking more and more like Ukraine – a failed state that only (barely) functions because it’s propped up by money and supplies from the USA. Source: timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent…

NASA’s Advanced Air Mobility vision involves the skies above the U.S. filled with new types of aircraft, including air taxis. But making that vision a reality involves ensuring that people will actually want to ride these aircraft – which is why NASA has been working to evaluate comfort, to see what passengers will and won’t […]

Israel cracks down on coverage of Iran's missile strikes, accuses reporters of 'helping the enemy' thecradle.co/articles-id/31464

I love that Iran uses AI in their propaganda (not using the term in a negative manner here). It is one of the reasons I wanted to learn AI, because I recognized it has some democratizing powers. I recognize it has other uses too but at this time we are focusing on the good uses;

"Who is Major Genersl Seyed Abdolrahim Mousavi, new Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces?"

in reply to Prof. Emily M. Bender(she/her)

The first line of her post reads almost exactly like Replika's copy about itself. Here's a quote from a talk by Sherry Turkle:

Consider Replika, at this point a chatbot that offers itself as a friend, confidante, lover, psychotherapist. It’s built to be emotive, supportive, and erotic if that’s what a person wants. There’s a remarkable parallelism between what Replika’s developers promise and what enthusiastic users say they like about Replika. ... In my studies people tell me that they like chatbot friendship because it takes the stress out of relationships. With a chatbot friend there is no friction, there is no second guessing, there is no ambivalence, there is no fear of being left behind.

libvirt VM not getting IP


I'm trying to boot some VMs using a script w/ a kickstart file. I'm using the following script that I found online and modified:

\#!/usr/bin/env bash
\#set -x
## Define variables
MEM_SIZE="8192"      # Memory setting in MiB
VCPUS="2"             # CPU Cores count
\#OS_VARIANT="rocky9"   # List with osinfo-query  os
OS_VARIANT="rhel7.9"   # List with osinfo-query  os
ISO_FILE="~/Documents/software/os/RHEL-7.9-20200917.0-Server-x86_64-dvd1.iso" # Path to ISO file

case $OS_VARIANT in
        rhel7.9)
                KS=ks7.cfg;;
        rocky9)
                KS=ks9.cfg;;
esac

echo -en "Enter vm name: "
read VM_NAME
OS_TYPE="linux"
echo -en "Enter virtual disk size : "
read DISK_SIZE

DISK=~/.local/share/libvirt/images/${VM_NAME}.qcow2

echo "Creating disk"
sudo virt-install \
     --name ${VM_NAME} \
     --memory=${MEM_SIZE} \
     --vcpus=${VCPUS} \
     --location ${ISO_FILE} \
     --network network=default \
     --disk path=${DISK},size=${DISK_SIZE} \
     --graphics=none \
     --os-variant=${OS_VARIANT} \
     --console pty,target_type=serial \
     --initrd-inject ~/virt/${KS} --extra-args "inst.ks=file:/${KS} console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8"

I've obfuscated the directory paths, but they're all full paths and the script will build a VM. So basically just setting up a basic system, using the default network. Here's the config for that:
<network connections='3'>
  <name>default</name>
  <uuid>61afc7f1-9c5e-4cra-8d18-e3cf4f9358e9</uuid>
  <forward mode='nat'>
    <nat>
      <port start='1024' end='65535'/>
    </nat>
  </forward>
  <bridge name='virbr0' stp='on' delay='0'/>
  <mac address='52:54:00:7c:32:9b'/>
  <ip address='192.168.122.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'>
    <dhcp>
      <range start='192.168.122.2' end='192.168.122.254'/>
    </dhcp>
  </ip>
</network>

Looking at the XML for the VM, I see the following for the network:
<interface type='network'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:07:82:78'/>
      <source network='default' portid='800dfd67-d90a-42te-a0b7-c4c78cdae481' bridge='virbr0'/>
      <target dev='vnet7'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <alias name='net0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

When this VM is installing, and when it's booted, it does not have an IP. Meanwhile, if I go through virt-manager and select the default network, it gets an IP just fine. I've tried running the virt-install command w/ and w/o sudo (I run virt-manager as me - I'm in the libvirt group). Looking at the virt-manager built VM:
    <interface type='network'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:5e:f5:05'/>
      <source network='default' portid='d57dbc56-759e-40f9-856f-9623f4801a93' bridge='virbr0'/>
      <target dev='vnet8'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <alias name='net0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

Looking at virbr0:
$ ip link show master virbr0
11: vnet7: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master virbr0 state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether fe:54:00:07:82:78 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
12: vnet8: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master virbr0 state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether fe:54:00:5e:f5:05 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Only difference I can see is one is created using virt-install and the other using virt-manager (which calls to virt-install, no?). I thought there was a way to see the actual virt-install command virt-manager was about to use when creating a VM, but I can't find it. Also can't find any logs to give me an idea why the VM isn't getting an IP. Running ethtool on the VM interface shows a link. I've wasted too much time getting this to work, and all the documentation suggests it should "just work!"

ETA: PEBKAC! Remember where I said I was using kickstart? Yeah, well it helps to actually include a network configuration, even if it is just DHCP! Feeling stupid, but it's working.

Timecodes:

00:26 Sponsor: Proton VPN
01:46 Qt6 and Wayland
05:15 Visual changes
07:21 New desktop features

Plasma 6 moved to Qt6 entirely, and it's also the first version with fully complete wayland support, and Wayland is actually the default session. And that Wayland support is pretty flawless in my experience.

And this release also brings a few cool things, courtesy of Wayland: HDR is now supported, provided your display also support it. You can also set a color profile for each display individually, on Wayland as well. And finally, you also get color blindness correction filters in the settings.

First, the theme is now lighter on the eyes. They have removed a bunch of the blue borders that every single panel inside of an app had, so the whole feel of the desktop is similar, but also nicer, you don't have that many lines that draw your eyes. Highlighted items in list views are also different, now with rounded corners and a little bit of spacing.

Another visual change is the floating panel by default.

The defaults have changed drastically First, single click to select is now the default, with double click to open. Tap to click on touchpads is also the default now, and they've disabled scrolling on the desktop to switch workspaces.

It's now way easier to change panel configuration. The previous messy pop-up was replaced by something much more visual, which will absolutely be a better experience. You get visual representations of the settings you're changing, with combo boxes to select what you want, and tou can now auto hide the panel.

Another big change is the combination of the overview and the present windows effect. It feels like the older overview, except, it looks a lot like GNOME's. What has changed is the touchpad gestures, and these are much, much better. You also get the desktop cube back.

Another change is the ability to just click inside of a scrollbar's area to move the content directly to that area. Finally, Krunner got faster, way faster, and now lets you reorder the various elements that it shows when you search for something.

Visually, the settings are less busy. Gone are the double rows of icons at the bottom of a page, they now mostly moved to the toolbar of the settings app, meaning that settings pages now look a bit nicer. They've also reduced the number of pages that were opened by clicking a button inside of another page, so things are easier to find, and the settings were reordered into other categories.

You get a new sound theme preference page, and, easier configuration of which app will open a broad category of file.

Dolphin received changes to its settings as well, reordering a bunch of things, and it gained kjeyboard shortcuts to access the toolbar buttons and the disk space usage bar that lives in the status bar. You can also now right click a folder to open it in split view.

Spectacle, the screen recorder, now shows a tray icon when it's recording your screen, you can click it to end the recording. It also support recording a part of your screen, and has new keyboard shortcuts to handle all of this. Everything will now be saved by default in the pictures screenshots directory, you can change that of course. It also support VP9 to record videos, and can be used using the CLI

Konsole has redesigned settings, and will use less ram. Text selection now works for chinese, korean or japanese, and every tab now uses a separate cgroup, meaning the entire app will no longer be killed if your system needs to kill a process to save somle resources

Ukraine and Iran: two fronts of a piecemeal world war


#geopolitics #imperialism #war

This vision now has real teeth. If the United States escalates its military campaign against Iran, it risks not only igniting a broader regional war but raising the stakes in the ongoing de facto world war. Indeed, as Tariq Ali noted, Trump’s threats against Iran should be seen as part of a wider plan against China ...
