Comme l'a fait remarquer Tariq Ali, il est évident que le pays qui a le plus urgent besoin d'un changement de régime est Israël. Toutefois, étant donné l'énorme soutien populaire israélien au génocide de Benjamin Netanyahou, le problème dépasse le cadre du régime. Comme l'a récemment déclaré Gideon Levy, "Diplomates et décideurs, vous comprenez ? En Israël, nous sommes tous des Ben-Gvir et des Smotrich. Nous tous." La seule solution consiste à démanteler l'État d'Israël, comme d'autres régimes coloniaux l'ont été au siècle dernier, et comme l'Afrique du Sud coloniale l'a été plus récemment. L'État ethno-suprémaciste doit céder la place à un État démocratique garantissant l'égalité des droits pour tous, ainsi que le droit au retour et à l'indemnisation de tous les Palestiniens et de leurs familles. En d'autres termes, une solution à un seul État, que DiEM25 soutient depuis longtemps. Avec l'arrêt de nouvelles guerres au Moyen-Orient, c'est le seul moyen d'apporter la justice aux Palestiniens et une lueur d'espoir pour la paix et la stabilité dans la région.
A Yerevan court ordered the arrest of businessman Samvel Karapetyan this week, accusing him of "making public calls to illegally seize power" after he spoke in defense of Armenia's Apostolic Church amid a government crackdown.
A major one is the nukes narrative, which enables a genocidal apartheid regime possessing plenty of nuclear warheads, one which refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, to bomb – with the full support of the West – a country that did sign the NPT and has never possessed nukes. The pretext is that they might someday acquire them! Israel’s nukes, on the other hand, render it untouchable and unaccountable, able to threaten and attack its neighbours with impunity by invoking the “Samson option“.
As Jonathan Cook commented, the double standards are needed to keep Israel as the only nuclear-armed state in the Middle East, exerting unrestrained military power in an oil-rich region the West needs to control. This explains Europe’s Orwellian rhetoric after Israel’s first strikes, condemning Iran for attacks on its own territory – outstanding even by the current standards of European complicity. In the words of Harrison Mann, who resigned from his post at the Defence Intelligence Agency last year in protest over US policy in Gaza

„Die politische Linke will die ungesteuerte Massenzuwanderung, wobei Flüchtlingsschutz oder die Zuwanderung von Fachkräften allenfalls Vorwände sind. In links-grünen Kreisen wird offen gesagt, dass die Massenzuwanderung der #Enthomogenisierung dient. Um das einordnen zu können, muss man verstehen, was der ideologische Hintergrund ist.
Axel Steier, eine massgebende Person der grün-linken «Seenotretter», hat das dieser Tage ziemlich freimütig auf Twitter erklärt. Nach seinem Weltbild würde es in Zukunft keine «Weissbrote» mehr geben. Sie würden aussterben. Durch die Migration erfolgt die «Enthomogenisierung» der «Weissbrote», und damit werde die Evolution beschleunigt. «In 50–100 Jahren wird es keine Weissbrote mehr geben, weil sich ihre Nachkommen für einn Partnerin entscheidet, der nicht weiss ist.»
Derartige Aussagen sind kein radikaler Unsinn eines bekifften Grünen, sondern sind ein zentrales Element der Ideologie der sogenannten Anti-Deutschen in den linken Parteien (Grüne, SED/Die Linke, SPD und linker Flügel der CDU) und korrespondieren auch mit Elementen der Woke-Ideologie.“

While news headlines are increasingly dominated by the nuclear face-off between Israel, Iran, and the US, life remains hellish for displaced families clinging on to the edge of the Gaza City shoreline. Who will speak for them?
"Of course, we don’t know exactly how many nuclear warheads Israel has, because Israeli leaders refuse to publicly admit they have any. The whole military program is kept in near-total secrecy, under a policy called “strategic ambiguity,” meaning the existence of the bombs is neither confirmed nor denied. Historians believe Israel first got a nuclear weapon in 1967, after secretly refining plutonium at the Dimona facility and running a “full deception campaign” to convince U.S. inspectors the purpose of the reactors there was civilian rather than military. (Ironically, this is exactly the kind of deception Israel now accuses Iran of practicing.) It’s also strongly suspected that Israel tested a nuclear weapon off the coast of South Africa in 1979, in partnership with that country’s apartheid government. It’s called the Vela incident, after the spy satellite that spotted the nuclear flash. But “strategic ambiguity” means there’s little international oversight or accountability involved with any of this, and much of it takes place in violation of international law. Like North Korea and a small handful of other nations, Israel has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), despite United Nations resolutions that it should do so. It has signed the Limited Test Ban Treaty of 1963, but likely broke it with the South African incident. And most importantly, its leaders refuse to allow inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to access Dimona, so we have no way of knowing what’s going on in there.
Under U.S. law, Israel’s rogue nuclear program means that the United States should not be supplying it with military aid of any kind. The law in question is the International Security Assistance and Arms Export Control Act of 1976, and its language is unambiguous. But for more than 50 years now, U.S. leaders have been willing to ignore their own laws and accept this..."
According to our elected leaders, we should be very scared of the possibility that Iran could get a nuclear bomb. But Israel already has them, and its government is increasingly unstable and belligerent.

The more people rely on generative AI, the more the internet becomes swamped with error-strewn content which then gets hoovered back up into LLM training datasets. The cumulative long-term impact of all this is a gradual degradation at the societal level not only of a population's capacity for critical consumption, but of the quality of the knowledge-base itself. Couple that with AI being deliberately used by governments and Big Tech to influence public opinion, and it's hello techno-dystopia.
...and here it is, the clearest evidence yet of a fascist tech bro deciding the current corpus of human knowledge needs "correcting", and openly stating his intention to use his LLM to manipulate public understanding.
When I called current iterations of AI "Joseph Goebbels' wet dream", it wasn't hyperbole. Musk is talking about rewriting history to suit himself. As George Orwell said, he who controls the past controls the future.

When systemd first reared it’s head in Linuxland, there were alarms going off about “corporate takeover of Linux,” “this isn’t the UNIX way,” and “it’…
The Linux Way that I have experienced is one of continuous development while maintaining essential backward compatibility for hardware. X is inhrentlyl insecure, especially on a local network or even on a local multi-seat server. Wayland is purportedly designed to be secure against traditional X flaws and hacks.
@hummingbird I think that is why Xorg was forked! All those unpatched vulnerabilities that they didn't want to fix because they want everybody to switch to Wayland.
I am loth to say "they didn't want to fix it" - who are 'they"? Corporates don't care about X. Users of X can't because X is incredibly complex. X is in fact not unlike an init system. X reaches out to many hardware-related functions. I have never read the source code. I have heard that no programmer can fathom the full extent of X. It was inevitable that, given that it has not been systematically maintained for a very long time, nobody could perform a reliable security audit of the code.
various forms over the years, and other things complicated searches taking the name for other things... so adding these terms should help you discover it and many other wonderful things around it. 😀
sorry for not giving you just a link, but at this stage, it's kinda a case of pick your fork. puppy and tinycore maintain their own forks i think. and there'll be others out in the wild too.
then there are ways to ~kinda~ do a tinyx from xorg (or was, have not tried it myself) from when it got merged in (ages ago ~ idk if that's still a feature it can be compiled to, but still wont likely be as tiny). perhaps also available in xlibre.

I love ray tracing and path tracing when they're done right. Ik fully ray traced scenes are hardly playable even on high end cards without upscaling but like if one has a powerful enough card, why not utilize its potential? Yet most people don't seem to care about RT.
When it comes to upscaling though, I hate it, and I'm not even talking about frame gen. It makes things look blurry and causes annoying artifacts. I think playing on lowest settings with clear textures is more enjoyable long term than maxed out in 4k with a consistently blurry image. Also this new technology makes devs care less about optimization (which will backfire btw as we're approaching the physical limit of transistor size).

Recently, I've created a video about how I think Linux lacks a strong software ecosystem. There were positive reactions, as well as negative ones, but in the end, I stand by it, and as such, I've created my own, Linux-based ecosystem. Let's see what I've used.
Join this channel to get access to a monthly patroncast and vote on the next topics I'll cover: youtube.com/channel/UC5UAwBUum…
The main building block to get me started was Nextcloud. It's an amazing hub for almost everything you might need: Notes, Tasks, Contacts, Files and Calendar, and it can be extended with other applications to really use it as your digital centerpiece.
I installed Nextcloud on a Linode server, using the base Nanode at 5€ per month, and installed Nextcloud in one command line, through SNAP. I know, I know, but it was just super convenient. I went with version 18, since it come with OnlyOffice pre-configured, I'll talk about that a little bit later.
Where Nextcloud shines, is in its integration with almost anything you might want to use. It uses open protocols like Webdav or caldav, and this means a lot of applications can sync to Nextcloud. As a matter of fact, if you're using GNOME, you can just login with your Nextcloud account and server, directly from the "Online Accounts" settings panel, and everything will be automatically synced to the default GNOME applications, which is pretty nice.
Computers
Syncing with a computer is pretty easy: either you use GNOME, and you just log into your account, and get auto sync right off the bat, or you sync individually to the apps you want to use.
File syncing can be done through the Nextcloud application, available through an appimage, or through Flatpak. I set it up in a bit of a weird way, since I don't want all my stuff located inside a single Nextcloud folder, so I've set up what they call folder sync connections, which basically map the content of a local folder on your hard drive, to a folder on Nextcloud. This means that my documents, for example, are not inside the Nextcloud folder, but inside the Documents folder in my /home/ directory.
I also sync my Notes to the Nextcloud/Notes folder. Little side "note" here as well, these notes are stored as individual files, so you can edit them manually without going into Nextcloud, so you can use any application of your choice.
Mobile devices
I have defaulted to /e/. This is a completely degoogled version of Android, which I've talked about in a previous video.
This has access to all android apps, minus the paid ones, and all apps on F Droid as well, so it's usable in a day to day scenario. It kinda looks like iOS by default, but you can install any launcher you want in there. It also uses MicroG to give you access to most Google apps if you really can't live without them.
This system provides default applications that are not linked to Google services, but integrate perfectly with Nextcloud: tasks, calendars, contacts, notes... You name it. This is what I'm using as a daily driver, on a Galaxy S9+.
You can achieve the same result on any Android phone using an app called DAVx5. It's paid for in the Google Play store, and free on F Droid. It just lets you enter your Nextcloud server and credentials, and lets you select what you want to sync to your device.
Now, in that scenario, you'll get calendars and contacts, but Notes and tasks probably won't sync to your manufacturer's application, so you might have to download a specific Android app to handle these instead.
You can also get the Nextcloud app, that lets you auto upload your pictures and syncs your photo albums as well, into separate folders.
Computer - phone integration
Now, what we're lacking is a phone to computer integration. Fortunately, there is KDE Connect, a fantastic tool that also works on other desktop environments, and even has a GNOME extension called GS Connect. It lets you receive notifications from your phone on your computer, send text messages from your desktop or laptop, send files back and forth just like AirPlay on APple devices, or use your phone as a remote control for audio on your desktop, or a plain old touchpad.
I thought you video was excellently done. However, I've been syncing my contacts and calendars between different machines for centuries now, including android without Google. I use the #F-Droid repository for applications that sync friendly with my #Nextcloud instance and exchange #calendar and #contact data between them and I've been using #Linux exclusively since 1999. I don't think that this is such a fuss. Your video was fun though so keep up the good work.
@agentcasey@toot.masto.host I always look at these types of videos as "making things more approachable for the masses". I think you've nailed it in that the video might not present you with new ideas, but it should be fun and entertaining, and also give you a resource to share with your circle that might not have discovered the value in a setup like this yet!
More than half of the "what's new" in the latest MSVC update is just AI shit. I opened the IDE to write code myself. I've written a large game (including making the sprites, sound effects, and music) by myself. I feel like I'm going insane just by wanting to use my creativity to make things.
@aral I learned some vi in my teens, I'm not one of the vi golf types, but I can happily use it, and actually do for writing all the Lua code for my game. I'll need to give Helix a try - I've never really heard of it, I've been out of the loop.
@Dr.Hydro @Russ O We don't care what your interpretations of the figures are and quite franly you haven't presented any either. We'll just accept what the meme states, on faith. The next matter, about me being antisemitc, that's true. I sleep well at night being so. As far as being a Nazi, you flatter me. However, I don't think that I deserve your high praise.
While the SS were very good dressers and German troops under Hitler's regime were well disciplined, I wouldn't measure up, since I wouldn't approve of invading the USSR. I would have made a pact with them and then I would have turned my attention to England and invaded them instead. I would not relent until the entire British Isles were under my highly shined boots. Then I'd work with the USSR and set my sights on the USA, where one could fined like minded souls. However, being thougt of as being a Nazi is pretty cool too, so I think thanks may be in order.
Well, ‘carter’, if you like smashing the skulls of small children who weren't hit by the machine gun barrels with a folding spade at the edges of mass graves to save a little ammunition, you're just a perverted arsehole. Because that's what fascism and the SS stand for. You just wrote that you think they're good. The figures on predominantly male violent crime are freely available and common knowledge. If you doubt that, it only proves your ignorance.
@Dr.Hydro Objection, your honor! Hearsay. Although it does sound like fun doesn't it? I mean Israel has been doing just that very same thing to the babies in Palenstine, Gaza to be exact and you people seem to approve.
Your attempt to doubt established historical facts is simply stupid, dishonest and ridiculous. But it is precisely this mendacious malice that is one of the central components of right-wing ideology.
Moreover, your comparison with the Gaza war is simply wrong. The Israelis are waging a brutal war there with many victims. But they are not carrying out mass shootings of civilians like the Germans did in Babyn Yar, for example. That's obvious and your drivel reveals your complete ignorance.
But what the hell. You're lying and ignorant, ‘carter’. Like all Nazis. That's why facts simply bounce off you and it should be easier to teach a nematode higher maths than to teach you historical facts.
@Dr.Hydro There it is again, words with no meanings, no translation. All I seem to make out are the letters B-L-A-H, in a continuous series.
One wonders what it could possibly mean? Nazi's and antisemites are very cool lady. I wish to thank you, for associating me, in their very exalted presence.
@Dr.Hydro Long live the spirit of the phony holocaust. Hitler was a very cool dude. We spit and shit on the grave of Israel. Hate speech is any truth, that offends hook nosed Jews. Oh, speaking of nematodes, they're parasitic aren't they? They should be the logo of all the Jews and Zionists. Quite apt actually.

Yesterday I saw an interesting vid by ABC News on whether boycott against Musk might succeed.
Example of a similar situation was given in how Coors Brewing Company in the US was boycotted for racism, among others. A boycott very successful until they started playing woke and their brand image normalized to great extent.
They were arch convervative and fiercely anti-union.

it was fa$hionable for a bit, a talking point ignored by many leftists, only to bite them back later. I think in general in the core of much of the misinformation and disinformation campaigns by the right there's usually a modicum of truth (exaggerated and extrapolated to inane conclusions, of course), and years of living in denial of that definitely factored in the fascist swing we are observing worldwide.

Fake neutrality / BBC drops “Gaza: Doctors Under Attack” documentary
The #BBC’s decision to cancel the #Gaza medics documentary claiming “impartiality” concerns is bias masquerading as journalistic neutrality. Framing journalist Ramita Navai’s statements as mere “opinion” is disgusting. Describing Israel as “a rogue state that’s committing war crimes and ethnic cleansing, and mass-murdering Palestinians,” accurately summarizes findings from international legal institutions, human rights organizations, and her own documentary evidence. The #ICJ has found plausible evidence of genocide, #UN experts have documented systematic targeting of medical facilities, thousands of healthcare workers have been killed, so presenting doctors’ firsthand accounts isn’t “partial” - it’s essential documentation and possibly their professional obligation to their viewers.
Disgusting. Time to replace the fake public-service broadcaster by an actual, independent one.
> findings from international legal institutions, human rights organizations, and her own documentary evidence
Also, don't forget to mention the international academic community in the field of genocide studies. The earned authority of academic researchers deserves endorsement, but is often overlooked.
@martinvermeer 100%. it’s really a continuation of the familiar silencing of Palestinian voices, especially eyewitness testimonies. A trend Zionist historiography perfected after looting whatever was left behind by Palestinians who got killed or fled during the war. Especially personal material, diaries, journals and photography (only a fraction of which is accessible to researchers even today due to censorship laws regarding national security). Then you got historians like Benny Morris dismissing these type of material, which was in fact the most powerful evidence of what the Zionist movement had done to the Palestinians. Clearly more relevant than whatever was recorded in official documents found in respective national and military archives. The #BBC continues the trend of hiding the truth and eliminating evidence. The fake outbursts of rage by partisan Israel activists which are extension of Israel propaganda seem to work every time.
The guardian: EU cites ‘indications’ Israel is breaching human rights obligations over conduct in Gaza; Leaked document marks significant moment in relations with ally but stops short of calling for immediate sanctions

As if any more evidence or research needed. A chilling example of how complicity operates through institutional mechanisms we innocently believed are rational and just. I have no doubt that the economic relationship between the EU and Israel will continue, despite the mounting evidence of crimes against humanity.
Former #BBC journalist Karishma Patel reveals that over 100 BBC staff have anonymously signed a letter criticizing the broadcaster’s decision not to air “Gaza: Doctors Under Attack,” calling it a “political decision.” Channel 4 picked up the film instead.
A Centre for Media Monitoring report found the BBC interviewed more than double the number of Israelis compared to Palestinians after October 7, 2023, and omitted key legal context including the #ICJ ruling.
This marks the third anonymous letter from BBC journalists, with dissent growing from 8 staff in November 2023 to over 100 by 2024.
Tell us who paid you for that decision, BBC. Go ahead and let us know who's dollar is blocking this from being seen and discussed. Impartiality, my backside.
[…] Thanks to Channel 4 picking it up late in the day, Gaza: Doctors Under Attack now exists in the world, and it has never been more evident that this is a work that demands to be seen.
The #IDF systematically targeted Palestinian medical workers across all 36 Gaza hospitals. The film documents a pattern of bombardment, siege, raids, and detention of doctors.
It features testimonies from Dr. Khaled Hamouda, whose family was killed and who was detained with 70 other doctors, and Dr. Adnan al-Bursh, who died in prison after detention and torture.
The documentary includes accounts of beatings, torture, and medical procedures without anesthetic performed by Israeli doctors on detained Palestinian medics.
[follow up] Over 400 media figures call for BBC board member’s removal over Gaza coverage conflicts
More than 400 celebrities, journalists and media figures including Miriam Margolyes, Mike Leigh and 111 #BBC staff have signed a letter demanding the removal of BBC board member Robbie Gibb. The signatories cite conflict of interest concerns, as Gibb led the consortium that bought the Jewish Chronicle in 2020 and served as its director until August 2024.
The letter alleges the BBC is “crippled by the fear of being perceived as critical of the Israeli government” and points to the corporation’s decision to commission but shelve the documentary “Gaza: Doctors Under Attack” as evidence of editorial bias.
BBC staff claim they face censorship while Gibb remains in an influential position on the editorial standards committee despite his connections to pro-Israel media.
The pro-Israel lobby protects Israel’s actions against Palestinians rather than fighting #antisemitism. Wealthy Jewish donors in influential positions across the #US and #UK shape policy. The Gaza genocide would not have reached this scale without Western media censorship of what’s really happening there, and it’s getting worse by the day. Corporations and academia don’t fear public opinion. Surveys consistently show majorities in these countries oppose their governments’ support for Israel. So who is the BBC so afraid of and why?
