I am okay with disk encryption if the owner of the device enables it themselves and understands at least a little bit about it.

Microsoft enabling it on people's computers without their knowledge is really scummy.

I have full disk encryption on my ThinkPad laptop with Linux and I'm okay with that... because I set it up and I know about it.

@gabriel fundamentally, the issue is that the data requires code execution to access, and that code will require the key material.

A drive that allowed you to approve access levels/modes, and used bio-metric to confirm your identity, I think would be closer to the ideal.

I had the chance to talk with an Offensive Security penetration team, and they more or less told me that, their time in Africa made them realize that, in a physical environment, the person will always be the weak link. (aka rubber hose attack)

And, personally, if I sit down and think about it, I buy very little privacy or protection from encrypting. But, I lose performance, and make the possibility of losing access to my own data much higher.

I'm excited by the idea of an NYC mayor who isn't awful.

When is the last time that NYC had a mayor who was halfway decent?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_…

I was going to post a poll, but I have no idea how far back you'd need to go to get a non-shitty mayor, and NYC has had a lot of mayors. Probably would need more than 4 poll options.

EDIT: This was not a rhetorical question, I genuinely want to know who was the last NYC mayor you think did a good job!

I don't know (I was pretty young when he was mayor, and I'm not from New York City), but I don't remember anything bad about him. I guess that was my point.

I remember a lot of bad things about Giuliani (even before Trump) for example.

Koch seemed to be well-liked by a lot of people and I don't remember any major scandals or bad press. Unlike say Reagan (who I think was President at the time) and him and the whole Iran-Contra scandal.

Koch -- to me as a young ousider -- seemed pretty decent but maybe my views are skewed.

Definitely not Bloomberg. That guy was an ass.

The biggest media failure on the bombing of Iran is that every article should have started with: "The Iran nuclear deal signed in 2015 effectively curtailed Iran's nuclear program until the US withdrew in 2018, under pressure from Israel".

Without this context, any commentary is worthless.

Natasha Bertrand should be FIRED from CNN! I watched her for three days doing Fake News. She should be IMMEDIATELY reprimanded, and then thrown out “like a dog.” She lied on the Laptop from Hell Story, and now she lied on the Nuclear Sites Story, attempting to destroy our Patriot Pilots by making them look bad when, in fact, they did a GREAT job and hit “pay dirt” — TOTAL OBLITERATION! She should not be allowed to work at Fake News CNN. It’s people like her who destroyed the reputation of a once great Network. Her slant was so obviously negative, besides, she doesn’t have what it takes to be an on camera correspondent, not even close. FIRE NATASHA!

I ran across a reference to this book from 1961: the title piqued my interest.

The Myth of Mental Illness: Foundations of a Theory of Personal Conduct by Thomas Szasz

then I found this review of the book from the NYT from back in 1961... (things sure have changed at the old grey lady.)

“The landmark book that argued that psychiatry consistently expands its definition of mental illness to impose its authority over moral and cultural conflict.” — New York Times

I'll be picking this book up.

»Dass „From the River to the Sea“ als Kennzeichen der #Hamas zu verstehen sei, sah die Richterin am Freitag nicht. Sie habe schon zuvor Bedenken über den ergangenen Strafbefehl geäußert, sagte sie. Durch die Vorstellung einer ausführlichen historisch-wissenschaftlichen Analyse der Parole durch eine LKA-Sachverständige kam die Richterin aus mehreren Gründen zu der Überzeugung, dass es sich nicht um ein Hamas-Kennzeichen handele.
[…]
Auch werde der Spruch von der Hamas in dieser Form gar nicht verwendet, lediglich Teile davon oder in Abwandlung. Und im Übrigen nutzten andere Akteur:innen, auch in Israel, ebenfalls Varianten der Parole.
[…]
Personen wegen des Spruchs „From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free“ anzuklagen, [hielt die Richterin] für die „Kriminalisierung von politischem Protest“.«

You may not know but the UK Govt has a soon to finish consultation on whether & how to enact the 'socio-economic duty' clause of the Equality Act 2010 in England (a duty that some 40 local authorities have adopted already alongside the devolved Govt.s in Scotland & Wales).

At it simplest this is an opportunity to encourages the current Govt. to be more ambitious in its treatment of inequality & poverty, and thus more proactive on its alleviation.

Kapitalizm emperyalizmdir, kapitalizm savaşsız, hegemonya düşmansız yapamaz… - Fikret Başkaya

“Bulutun fırtınayı içerdiği gibi, kapitalizm de savaşı içerir…” Jean Jaurès

“Hristiyanlık denilen bu soyun, dünyanın dört bir yayında buyrukları altına alabildikleri halklara karşı gösterdikleri vahşet ve zulmün bir benzerine, hiçbir çağda ne kadar yabanıl ne kadar kaba ne kadar merhametsiz ve utanmaz olursa olsun, başka hiçbir soyda rastlanmaz”. Wiliam Howitt

Kristof Kolomb’un macerasıyla başlayan dönem, kadim uygarlıkların tasfiyesinin, jenositlerin, etnik temizliğin, kitle katliamlarının, savaşların, kolonyalizmin tarihiydi… Batı Medeniyeti denilenin ne olduğu, Avrupa-merkezli ideoloji tarafından engellendi… Dünyanın geri kalanındaki (Asya, Afrika, Latin Amerika…) eğitimliler Avrupa-merkezli ideoloji tarafından büyülendiler, kendi gerçeklilerine yabancılaştılar. Kendi gerçeklilerine kendi gözleriyle bakamaz oldular… Velhasıl, kapitalizmin nasıl, insanlık ve uygarlık düşmanı, netameli bir sistem olduğunun anlaşılması engellendi…

“Batı Medeniyeti” denilenin dünyanın geri kalanına yansıyanı, özgürlük, demokrasi, sosyal eşiklik, “kalkınma” değil, sömürü, yağma ve talandı… Ve Garp Cephesi’nde yeni bir şey yok… Zira kapitalizm insanı ve doğayı kötürümleştirmekten başka bir şey vadetmiyor… Kapitalizm sadece insanın değil, doğanın da düşmanıdır… Sadece insanı üretmek ve yaşamak için gerekli araçlardan mahrum etmiyor, işsiz ve aç bırakmıyor, doğayı da tahrip ediyor, yaşamın temelini aşındırarak yol alıyor…

Kapitalizm dahilinde savaş istisna değil, kuraldır… Her kapitalist işletme varlığını büyümeye borçludur. Başka türlü söylersek, büyüme veya yok olma ikilemi söz konusudur… Vahşi rekabet koşullarında varlığını sürdürmek, büyümek de daha çok işçiyi daha çok sömürmekle, daha çok doğal kaynağa el koymakla mümkündür… Hiçbir sermayedar (kapitalist), bana bu kadar yeter, burada durayım diyemez, durursa büyükler tarafından yutulur, yarış alanının dışına atılır…

Kapitalizm dahilinde asıl belirleyici olan ‘siyaset’ değil, ‘ekonomidir’… Bu, onun kapitalizm öncesi dönemin sosyal formasyonlardan, uygarlıklardan farkını oluşturur. Kapitalizm dahilinde savaşlar ekonomik belirleyiciliğin bir gereği olarak tezahür ediyor. Gerçi, “savaş siyasetin başka araçlarla sürdürülmesidir” denmiştir ama orada gözden kaçan, dikkate alınmayan bir şey var: Kapitalizm dahilinde ilişkinin yönü ‘ekonomiden siyasete’ doğrudur… Siyaset ekonomiyi değil, ekonomi siyaseti belirliyor… Tekno-kapitalizm dahilinde savaş, sürekli ticari savaşın başka araçlarla sürdürülmesidir… Kapitalist devlet ihtiyaca göre düşman yaratır ve gereğini yapar… Aynı ihtiyaca göre müşteriyi yarattığı gibi… Emperyalistler için savaş, sermayenin etki alanını genişletmenin aracıdır… Sermaye büyümekte zorlandığında, özellikle de ‘yapısal kriz’ durumunda ve doğal kaynaklara ulaşmak zorlaştığında, askerî şiddet (savaş), ekonomik şiddetin yerini alır…

Jean Jaurès’in dediği gibi, savaş kapitalizme içerilmiştir zira kâra ve rekabete dayalıdır. Sürekli büyüme, etki alanını genişletme zorunluluğu var. Genişleme ve yayılma da rakipler aleyhine mümkün. Yıkıcı rekabet ortamında her kapitalist, her kapitalist işletme ileriye doğru kaçmak zorundadır… Bana bu kadarı yeter, burada durayım diyemez…İşçileri daha çok sömürmek, daha çok doğal kaynağa, enerji kaynağına sahip olmak, bunu da rakiplerinden önce yapmak zorundadır… Fakat, ne kadar hileci yöntemlere başvursa da şiddete başvuramaz, zira şiddet tekeli, orduya ve polise sahip devlete mahsustur…

Kapitalist dünya sistemi hiyerarşik, pramidal bir yapı ve işleyişe sahiptir. Ulus-devletler hiyerarşisi söz konusudur ve hiyerarşinin tepesinde daima hegemonik emperyalist bir devlet bulunur… Onu ikinci, üçüncü büyüklükteki emperyalist devletler izler… İkinci emperyalistler arası savaş öncesinde İngiltere, savaş sonrasında da ABD tartışmasız hegemonik güçtü… Şimdilerde de yeni bir hegemonya krizi dönemindeyiz…

Sanıldığı ve iddia edildiği gibi savaşlar büyük idealler uğruna yapılmaz… Yeni sömürü alanlarına, yeni pazarlara, yeni topraklara ve enerji kaynaklarına ulaşmak için yapılır… Tabii savaş sadece rakipleri etkisizleştirmek için de yapılmaz, savaşlardan hiçbir çıkarı olmayan, asıl bedeli ödeyen işçi sınıfını ve sol muhalefeti etkisizleştirmenin de bir aracıdır… Böyle bir gerçeklik söz konusuyken de ‘barışçı olmanın’ bir kıymeti harbiyesi olamaz… Savaşa karşı olmak, savaşları durdurmak örgütlü işçi sınıfının, yeryüzünün lanetlilerinin, bir bütün olarak ezilen ve sömürülen sınıfların, politik mücadelesi ve müdahalesi olmadan mümkün değildir…

Savaş büyük yıkımlar demektir ve kapitalistler yıkarken de yıkılanı yeniden yaparken de kâr ederler, sermayelerini büyütürler… Zira savaş büyük insan kırımına, doğal kaynak ve alt-yapı tahribatına neden olur… Utanç verici olan bu durum, kapitalistler için yeni yatırım ve değerlenme olanakları demektir… Yıkılan her şey, işte, yollar, köprüler, tren yolları, konutlar, vb… yeniden inşa edilerek büyük kârlar sağlanır…

Doğası gereği savaş, emperyalizmin krizleri aşmanın bir aracıdır. Hasımlar aleyhine üretim temeli genişletilir. Yeniden büyümenin gerekli koşulları yaratılır… Her emperyalist güç kendi sınırları dahilinde işçi sınıfının mücadelesini geriletir… Savaştan önce içeriyi kıvama getirmek esastır… Savaş macerası milliyetçiliği pohpohlayarak meşrulaştırılır… Başta emperyalist savaşlar olmak çatışmaları sonlandırmak Komünist Manifesto’nun sloganının gereğini yapmakla mümkündür: “Bütün ülkelerin işçileri birleşin…”

Emperyalistler savaş için gerekçe üretmekte zorlanmazlar. Medya ve “konunun uzmanları”, gerekçe üretmekte çok başarılıdırlar… Son 25-30 yılda peydahlanan emperyalist savaşların asıl nedeni asla afişe edilen ‘nedenler’ değildi… Dün Irak’ın “kitle imha silahları yalanı” bugün İran’ın “nükleer silah” gerekçesi… Artık uluslararası hukukun hiçbir kıymet-i harbiyesi yok… İstedikleri ülkeye, istedikleri zaman savaş açıyorlar… Bir de ne demekse “uluslararası toplum” söylemi var… “Uluslararası toplumun” ne olduğunu merak mı ediyorsunuz? “Uluslararası toplum” demek, ABD, İngiltere, Fransa, Almanya, İtalya, Kanada… emperyalist kamp demektir… Kendileri çalıp, kendileri oynuyorlar…

Öyleyse işe kapitalizmi sorun ederek başlamak gerekiyor… Şeylerin gerçeğiyle yüzleşebilmenin başka yolu yok! İkinci Dünya Savaşı sonrası yıllarda Paris’te bir ‘dünya yazarlar kongresi’ toplanıyor. Kürsüye çıkan her yazar, dünya barışından, dayanışmadan, kardeşlikten söz ediyor… Harika şair Bertholt Brecht dayanamıyor, kürsüye yürüyor, mikrofonu kapıyor: “Yoldaşlar, gelin üretim ilişkilerini (kapitalizmi) tartışalım” diyor… Ben de artık sadede gelelim diyorum…

I asked a doctor (fairly high up in the medical world - he used to be the Dean of the Medical School of a very large university) why they didn't make a vaccine for Lyme disease. He said they can't make vaccines for bacteria induced diseases.

But then how the hell did they make a vaccine for Meningitis?

I wonder if folks really appreciate how ignorant most doctors are of most medical things, even at higher levels. The COVID shot fiasco did not come out of nowhere.

"Iran asserts its right to national security by suspending IAEA access, following the agency’s silence over hostile attacks on its peaceful nuclear program"
"The move comes in the wake of recent Israeli-US aggression targeting key nuclear sites, which Iranian lawmakers say the IAEA failed to condemn"
In particular, Grossi was accused of handing Iranian scientists names to the Mossad, who proceeded to assassinate them in true Israeli fashion.

How to get AUDIO forwarding to work... if it's possible?

Hi, so I will try to hopefully explain as best as I can.

These are my devices:

  • Windows PC -> Cable Headphone1 output
  • Linux Laptop -> BT Headphone2 output
  • Android Phone -> Phone speaker output

What I want to achieve:

Have audio from all devices output from Headphone1 on my PC without having to use physical or software mixer.

What I managed to get working but sux due to audio stutter or delay:

Have audio from all devices output from Headphone2

How?

  • Phone paired via BT to Windows PC, using app on Windows PC called Bluetooth Audio Receiver gives me the ability to listen to my phone audio via Headphone1 (does not work for Laptop)
  • Linux Laptop paired to my Windows PC as an audio device allows me to set the Laptop as a output audio device for the PC so I can listen to PC and thus to the Phone via Headphone2

BUT, this causes phone audio to stutter via Headphone2 and audio from PC has at least 500ms delay.

Wish there was a way to forward audio from Linux Laptop to Windows PC the same way as from Android Phone to PC.

Any clues?
