In the U.S. a federal judge has blocked the enforcement of Trump's order targeting individuals who work with the International Criminal Court (#ICC). The ruling, following a lawsuit by human rights advocates, calls the order an unconstitutional infringement on free speech. The order authorized economic and travel sanctions on people involved in ICC investigations of U.S. citizens or allies, such as #Israel. The ICC and numerous countries have condemned the order.

If we start with the Linux kernel, in 2020, for version 5.10, there were almost 2000 different contributors, only 252 of which shared their first contribution. 228 companies also contributed work, and the top 20 companies contributed 70% of the changes in the kernel itself. THe biggest contributors? Huawei, Intel, Red Hat, Google, but we also see Facebook, Oracle, and Samsung in there.
But this doesn't mean that all the code these companies want to push, is accepted. The code is signed off on by subsystem maintainers and reviewers. And we see that big companies also have a hand on code validation, with Red Hat, Facebook, Google and Huawei being among the biggest.
Linux as a project, doesn't really have a roadmap. It's not like people meet in a boardroom to decide what they'll focus on next. People just propose their work, and it's either accepted, or not. So, companies who contribute have their own roadmaps, that require them to add some code to the Linux kernel, and this code kinda becomes the roadmap of the kernel itself.
The Linux Foundation is a big actor in how Linux is shaped and where it goes. And if we look at the board of directors for the Linux Foundation, we find a lot of big companies again: Sony, Intel, Huawei, Tencent, Meta, IBM, Microsoft, Samsung, Oracle, and more.
So, we come full circle: however well managed and structured the linux kernel development is, at every step, the code is written by people working for big companies, and big companies employ the maintainers who approve the code, which in turn is approved by Torvalds, who works for the Linux foundation, which is controlled by the board of directors, made up of employees of big companies. But is that really a problem?
Well, Linux might be mainly developed by people working for big companies, but it's still open source. You can still fork it, you can still grab the code, modify it, and redistribute it. And you can also look at the code, and detect all that shady stuff.
Which means the minute anything remotely weird, privacy invasive, or limiting to users makes it to the kernel, you'll get an immediate fork, or at least a new kernel version being distributed which removes all that crap.
Also important to remember: these big companies don't contribute just for fun. They contribute what they want or need to make their own products, services, and businesses run.
And it also works as some kind of mutually assured destruction: if a company ever wanted to add some crappy code to the kernel, it would hurt its competitors who also use Linux. So these guys would oppose the patch, or refuse to let it through. And the company would probably end up being banned from contributing at all.
And also, Linus Torvalds is the ultimate gatekeeper on the kernel: what goes in or not, goes through him. And fortunately, Torvalds is aware that corporate involvement can be tricky to handle. In a interview he gave in 2021, when being asked about financial sustainability, he says he has always been wary of being too tainted by commercial interests. He said that he didn't want to work for a Linux company to avoid that and stay as a neutral party. He also knows that it's not easy to work with companies and that they don't know how to do open source in a lot of cases.

@prosario2000, fakenew y bulos por razones ideologicas y políticas no son un invento de actuales tiempos.
Me imagino de arqueologos intentando de reconstruir nuestra historia a mano de nuestros diferentes periodicos, correspondientes a su orientación política.
La Biblia no es otra cosa, una colección de mitos, leyendas y relatos escrito muchas veces por gente décadas y incluso siglos después del supuesto correspondiente acontecimiento, muchas veces copiados de fuentes mucho más antigüas, babilonicas y egipcias.
La Biblia tiene un valor cultural, pero desde luego tiene un valor historico literal no más real que una novela de Harry Potter, que con mucho puede reflejar vagamente la vida en internados ingleses, si se resta el contenido de fantasía.
Στο επίκεντρο της ανασκόπησης βρέθηκαν 15 νέα επενδυτικά σχέδια, συνολικού ύψους άνω των 2,4 δισ. ευρώ, τα οποία –σύμφωνα με τον πρωθυπουργό– θα δημιουργήσουν θέσεις εργασίας και θα ενισχύσουν την παραγωγή με υψηλή προστιθέμενη αξία. Ειδική μνεία έγινε στον τομέα των ημιαγωγών, με τον κ. Μητσοτάκη να επισημαίνει τη συμμετοχή της Ελλάδας στο ευρωπαϊκό δίκτυο για τα μικροκυκλώματα και την ίδρυση του πρώτου Ελληνικού Κέντρου Ικανοτήτων Ημιαγωγών, με κρατική ενίσχυση 3,6 εκατ. €
Στόχος του Ηγέτη είναι η δημιουργία μιας εγχώριας αλυσίδας παραγωγής τεχνολογικής αξίας, με την επένδυση στην παραγωγή γαλλίου – υλικού κρίσιμης σημασίας για την κατασκευή μικροκυκλωμάτων.
164 νέα πυροσβεστικά οχήματα, με πρόβλεψη για πάνω από 1.400 συνολικά έως το τέλος του 2026 (πρόγραμμα ΑΙΓΙΣ)
Ο Ηγέτης έκανε λόγο για "καθήκον του κράτους να στηρίζει την Πολιτική Προστασία και τους ανθρώπους της πρώτης γραμμής"
Ο Ηγέτης παρουσίασε την νέα τηλεφωνική γραμμή υγείας 1566. Ο Ηγέτης δήλωσε πως το 1566 καταργεί 100 άλλες γραμμές, είναι δωρεάν και αφορά πληροφορίες για παροχές, ραντεβού, εφημερίες και υπηρεσίες του ΕΣΥ, ενώ –όπως διευκρινίστηκε– δεν αντικαθιστά το 166, το οποίο παραμένει για επείγουσες περιπτώσεις.

Last year while walking my dog, I found a couple of cut off pieces of these plants on the sidewalk of our town. Someone had cut them off and dropped them on the street.
Brought them home, cleaned them up, removed some leafs and put it in pots on my balcony.
The App PlantNet identifies it as Heartleaf iceplant" or " Baby sun rose" (گل ناز یخی) They have been growing beautifully since then and giving me cute pretty red flowers that turns into a slightly larger lighter red /dark pink color before drying out.
Now I have 3 of them, one has multiple branches, some over 60cm long.
I know them, we have them here, they grow like crazy. Once we cut a lot in one place and just threw the rest over a piece of very thin, bad soil - after a while they grew and covered the whole lot. @plants
Mahmoud Al-Ghafari remembers his son, Yousef, who was killed in the Gaza genocide. “Israel killed Yousef, snuffed out his dreams, and silenced his beautiful spirit,” he writes. “For no crime other than the fact that fate decreed he be born in Gaza.”
For as long as I live, I will never forget that the whole world watched Israel starve 2 million innocent people in Gaza, killing children on a daily basis and did nothing to stop it, even worse, punished those trying to end it and helped, funded, protected and armed the genocidal regime of Netanyahu.
@Babalugats so did UK, Greece, Turkey, Jordan, Turkey, Azerbaijan, UAE, KSA, Canada, China and Russia.
No one other than Hezbollah of Lebanon, resistance of Iraq, Houtis of Yemen and Iran have done anything significant to stop this ongoing genocide.
Even south Africa going to ICC and Spain talking about Sancrioning is just insignificant actions with absolute 0 consequences for the genocidal regime of Netanyahu
I'm referring to actually enabling. None of those other countries enabled by donating money, arms and preventing goods.
I'm not excusing any of them, but the might of the US, Germany and UK are difficult to go against. In Germany, UK and USA you can get arrested just for protesting against it.
South Africa, Ireland, Norway and Spain have all made their opinions known about it, but (I think) are all neutral countries, not that a war would solve the genocide anyway. But for sure, more countries need to do more than vocalise, and more people need to boycott the right people and products to have any effect.
@Babalugats Actually the Gulf states and Jordan actively helped Israel when they could have at least chosen to do nothing about it. They kinda profited from it:

Public support for Israel collapses across Western Europe and US, new YouGov survey finds Public support for Israel in Western Europe has plummeted to its lowest levels on record, a new YouGov poll has revealed, as the occupation state continues its genocidal war on Gaza. The findings indicate a major shift in public sentiment, with fewer than one in five across six European countries expressing a favourable view of Israel. middleeastmonitor.com/20250604… #Gaza #Palestine
public sentiment - maybe. Politics? No way, look at Germany and UK. And it is damned late - too late for so many. The next days, weeks, will be ... unspeakably horrible.

We are looking for an investor who can loan our holding company 237,000 US dollars.
With this money, we will open a farm in Baku, Azerbaijan to produce animal-based food.
We will also make our own animal feed, so our products will be healthier, better quality, and cheaper.
Because we sell quality products for less and have strong advertising, we will sell more worldwide and make big profits.
Why Azerbaijan? Because animal farming makes a lot of money there, but few people do it. That’s why we will earn more by starting in Azerbaijan.
Additionally, by producing our own animal feed, we will be able to sell healthier, higher quality animal products at a lower price.
Since we can sell quality products cheaply and thanks to our strong advertising network, we will be able to sell more internationally and make huge profits.
The reason for establishing the business in Azerbaijan is that animal husbandry is a very profitable business in Azerbaijan, but since there are very few people doing animal husbandry, establishing the farm in Azerbaijan will provide us with more income.
Your profit:
You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.
Your earnings will be great. When 22.03.2026 comes, you will get your money back as 953.00 US dollars.
You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars.
When 22.03.2026 comes, I will give you back your money in the amount of 953,000 US dollars.
That means you will earn 716,000 US dollars profit in just 9 months.
If you like this project and want to loan us money, message me on WhatsApp or Telegram for more details.
If our project is suitable for you and you would like to lend money to our holding, send a message to my WhatsApp number or Telegram username below and I will give you detailed information.

Maybe you don't like the camera app that came with your Android phone, or just would like to try a new one.
Open Camera is a very good one, BTW.
It features the following: * Auto-level option * Selfie "screen flash" * Configurable volume keys and user interface * Geotagging option * And much more [Open Camera on Google Play](play.google.com/store/apps/det…) [Website](opencamera.org.uk)
Open Camera is such a powerful tool for Android users! It’s impressive how an open-source app offers features like manual controls, HDR support, and stabilization—without any ads.
