Gemini*_and_Gopher o Personal * § GNU/Linux⠀➾ o ⚓ LinuxStans ☛ How_Linux_Changed_My_Life_(My_Linux_Journey)⠀⇛ At the risk of sounding cliche, the statement “Linux changed my life” isn’t said lightly. It has changed not only the course of my career but also changed the way I think and taught me quite a few things about myself. I never made it through high school. In fact, until recently I haven’t been to school since I was 15. I’m 31 now. But a few years back while working at an Iron foundry I met someone who was an advocate of open-source software and Linux. He ran a non-profit on the side which taught Linux. He used Slackware, which is what I started with at first. He even gave me a laptop with Slackware Linux on it. With a lot of patience, and when I say a lot I mean more than most people have the sanity for, this man did his best to teach me the terminal and bash scripting, from the simple to the advanced, he tried his best. I wouldn’t say I’m a bad student, just a student with a thicker skull who 8 out of 10 times has to just learn things the hard way. So I wouldn’t suggest Slackware being the first distro to start with. But starting with it was like sink or swim rather than starting at the shallow end and learning slowly, it was more like being tossed into the deep end. But every Sunday I went to the non-profit and learned what I could and practiced throughout the week. o § Desktop/Laptop⠀➾ # ⚓ CRN ☛ ‘Dream_Come_True’:_IGEL_Exits_Hardware_Business_| CRN⠀⇛ IGEL, a maker of well-engineered thin client hardware devices for two decades, is exiting that business as part of an all-out drive to make its popular Linux secure edge operating system the standard for Windows workspace computing across any device or cloud. o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_Snap/Snap-Store_on_Fedora 37/36/35⠀⇛ By default, Fedora does not come with Snap or Snap Store installed as this is a feature that was built by developed by Canonical as a faster and easier way to get the latest versions of software installed on Ubuntu systems, and Snap packages are installed from a central SNAP server operated by Canonical. Snap can be installed and, for the most part, work with most packages on Fedora-based systems that are currently actively supported. # ⚓ Manuel Matuzovic ☛ Day_37:_cascade_layers⠀⇛ Let’s say we’re using a combination of a tag and an attribute selector for styling e-mail input fields. This declaration is part of our base stylesheet and comes early in the stylesheet. Later in the document, we want to use a class to overwrite parts of the base styling: [...] # ⚓ uni Toronto ☛ It’s_useful_to_think_about_a_‘ground_up’ recovery_of_your_environment⠀⇛ One of the things that many system administrators don’t like to think about is a total loss scenario for their entire environment. For people who run physical hardware, what you’d do if your machine room or data center had a fire; for people with virtual hardware, what you’d do if your entire cloud (short of your ‘offsite backups’) was wiped or deleted. Often we push this off as Disaster Recovery and then punt on it, because a real DR plan is both a lot of detailed work and also something that often doesn’t survive contact with reality unless you really, really care about DR (care enough to budget for it and test your plans and so on). However, I’d like to advocate for the exercise of thinking through what it would take in your environment. # ⚓ Terence Eden ☛ How_to_search_Mastodon_by_date_&_time⠀⇛ I’m trying to build something similar for the Mastodon social network. Yes, I know it is new to you – but some of us have been there for several years. So here’s how to search Mastodon for posts made on specific dates! # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_qView_on_Fedora_37/36/35⠀⇛ qView is a free, open-source image viewer designed to be minimal and space-efficient with super-fast opening images. The image viewer features no cluttered interface, just your image with a title bar containing features such as animated GIF controls for easy viewing on any device. For more information about what qView features and looks like before installing it, visit the qView website, which features some great examples of the image viewer in action. In the following small tutorial, you will learn how to install qView on Fedora 37/36/35 Linux desktop using the command line terminal with tips about installing the alternative development version and removing the application if required in the future. # ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ How_to_Find_the_PID_of_a_Linux_Process_With pidof_or_pgrep⠀⇛ Working with a Linux process often means knowing its process ID, or PID. It’s a unique number given to each piece of running software. Here are two ways to find out what it is. # ⚓ Network World ☛ How_to_use_errexit_|_Network_World⠀⇛ In this Linux tip, we’re going to look at a bash option that will cause a script to exit any time it encounters an error. It’s called “errexit.” # ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Install_Latest_Python_3.11_in_Ubuntu⠀⇛ Python is the fastest-growing major general-purpose programming language. There are a number of reasons attributed to this, such as its readability and flexibility, ease to learn and use, reliability, and efficiency as well. There are two major Python versions being used – 2 and 3 (the present and future of Python); the former will see no new major releases, and the latter is under active development and has already seen a lot of stable releases over the last few years. The latest stable release of Python 3 is version 3.11. # ⚓ FOSSLinux ☛ How_to_install_and_use_MongoDB_Compass_|_FOSS Linux⠀⇛ MongoDB Compass is an excellent tool for anyone who does not know how to analyze and alter data using command-line queries. MongoDB Compass is simple to download and install on major operating systems. It is a simple procedure that takes little time. This article will explain how to install and use MongoDB Compass and discuss its essential features. Furthermore, it will walk you through the MongoDB Compass Windows, Linux, and macOS installation processes. To effectively utilize MongoDB Compass on your desktop environment, follow the simple and quick procedures provided in this article. Continue reading to learn about the functions and benefits of installing MongoDB Compass on your OS. # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_Wike_on_Fedora_37/36/35⠀⇛ Wike is a lightweight and open-source Wikipedia reader app for Linux-based GNOME desktops and uses the MediaWiki API to fetch content from Wikipedia. The app has a minimalist interface, with just a search bar and a sidebar for navigation, and articles are displayed in a simple, easy-to-read format. Wike also supports dark mode, so you can easily read articles at night or in low-light conditions. The following tutorial will teach you how to install Wike on Fedora 37/36/35 Linux using a COPR repository using the command line terminal with cli commands for those looking for a fast and lightweight way to view Wikipedia articles on their Linux desktop. # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_CMake_on_Fedora_37/36/35⠀⇛ CMake is a well-known compiler that has gained much popularity in recent years. The main reason for its popularity is that it is open-source and cross- platform, so developers can use it on any operating system they want and don’t have to worry about licensing fees. Additionally, CMake can generate wrappers and executables in any combination, making it very versatile. Given Fedora is an upstream- focused distribution on a six-month release schedule, most often, the latest CMake version is available to install, making the installation for developers requiring the latest packages very straightforward compared to some other Linux Distributions. In the following tutorial, you will learn how to install CMake on Fedora 37/36/35 Linux workstation or server using the command line terminal with two methods: dnf package manager with the native app- stream or compile method. # ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_PlayOnLinux_on_Fedora_37/36/ 35⠀⇛ When running Windows applications on Linux, Wine is a popular software many people use. However, one of the issues with Wine is that it can be pretty time- consuming and prone to errors when setting up required configurations for each application. Thankfully, a great program called PlayOnLinux can make your life much easier by providing automated installation of popular apps. This can be a massive benefit for those new to using Linux or who don’t want to spend a lot of time setting things up. Fedora is one distribution that makes it easy to install PlayOnLinux with the application being available in the default repositories. # ⚓ UNIX Cop ☛ How_to_get_the_latest_stable_version_of_Opera_on Ubuntu_22.04_/_Linux_Mint_21⠀⇛ Today you will learn how to get the latest stable version of Opera on Ubuntu 22.04 This web browser is one of the most advanced you can find out there. Opera is a powerful web browser based on Chromium that tries to differentiate itself from its competitors with interesting new features that make it very appealing to advanced users. As you can expect, Opera has versions for many operating systems such as Windows, macOS, and Linux. o § Games⠀➾ # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Mixing_factory_management,_Tower_Defense and_RTS_–_Mindustry_7.0_is_out_now⠀⇛ Easily one of the best open source games around, Mindustry from AnukenDev just had a MASSIVE new release out that took quite some time to make. This update was in development for over a year! # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Popular_Half-Life_2_mod_Entropy_:_Zero_2_is getting_full_Linux_support_for_Steam_Deck⠀⇛ Entropy : Zero 2 is a very popular and well reviewed Half-Life 2 mod, and the developer has recently announced the public testing of Native Linux support and Steam Input gamepad support. Available now in the “deck-testing” opt-in Beta, you can try it for yourself! # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Steam_Deck_Client_update_out_fixing_up_more Big_Picture_Mode_issues⠀⇛ Valve has rolled out a small stable Steam Deck Client update, mainly focused on fixing up the New Big Picture Mode. This is where you actually run it in desktop mode, with the “-gamepadui” launch setting. # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Spider-Man:_Miles_Morales_gets_Steam_Deck Verified_ahead_of_release⠀⇛ Hello web slingers! Good news for you, as Spider- Man: Miles Morales has been formally Steam Deck Verified ahead of the release later this week. Yes, it’s releasing this week (November 18th), and I didn’t realise it was that close either. Going to say goodbye to my backlog for a while again I think. # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Of_Blades_&_Tails_is_a_fresh_turn-based action-RPG_now_in_Early_Access⠀⇛ Looking for your next action RPG with turn-based combat? Inspired by the classic Point & Click Adventure Inherit the Earth, Of Blades & Tails is out in Early Access. # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ YoYo_Games_open_source_the_GameMaker_HTML5 runtime⠀⇛ Here’s a fun one for open source fans and game developers, as YoYo Games have open sourced their HTML5 runtime. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o ⚓ TinyCPM_–_CP/M_on_a_Tiny_2040⠀⇛ I’ve been using the RC2014 as a a CP/M development machine, especially while developing a cross-platform Rogue-like game. I love it. And whilst it’s a hell of a lot more portable than carrying a Osborne 1 or a Amstrad CPC 6128, it’s not something I can keep in the laptop bag and just pull out at the coffee shop (Both the RC2014 Mini with CP/M upgrade and the Extreme Kits RC2040 are ideally suited for this). o ⚓ Adafruit ☛ The_smallest_CP/M_microcomputer_ever_#CPM #VintageComputing_#RaspberryPi_@Hascksterio_@Raspberry_Pi⠀⇛ Designed with a minuscule footprint, this fully- functional CP/M computer build uses just two main components: a Tiny 2040 and an Adafruit microSD reader. o ⚓ HaikuOS ☛ Haiku_Activity_&_Contract_Report,_October_2022⠀⇛ This report covers hrev56505 to hrev56564. o § BSD⠀➾ # ⚓ FreeBSD ☛ EuroBSDCon_2022_Trip_Report:_Muhammad_Moinur Rahman_|_FreeBSD_Foundation⠀⇛ The FreeBSD Foundation was generous enough to sponsor my trip to EuroBSDCon, and I am extremely appreciative for the ability to attend this event in-person. EuroBSDCon 2022 is the first BSD conference I have attended, and it will certainly not be my last. I have been submitting patches for the ports tree since 2003 and have been an avid ports committer since 2014. I am maintaining over 800 ports and recently have grown keen interest in the src tree. I have started working with the Foundation staff to bring Pre Commit CI (Continuous Integration) to the src tree. I am being mentored by Li-Wen. Recently I have ported Cirrus-CI CI pipeline for the src tree which is still pending review. And my purpose for attending the Conference was to present these updates and get feedback to better understand the developer’s expectation for such a system. Then I can utilize those concepts/ expectations in our CI system. o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ Fedora_37_Speeds_Along_With_Dev-Focused Features,_Brand-New_Editions⠀⇛ The latest release is sure to please serious Linux tinkerers, with new minimal CoreOS and Cloud editions, plus the new GNOME 43 desktop. # ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Fedora_Linux_37_is_out_now_with_official Raspberry_Pi_4_support⠀⇛ After a bit of a delay due to security issues with OpenSSL, Fedora Linux 37 is officially out now with all the usual assortment of major software updates. o § Devices/Embedded⠀➾ # ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Take_part_in_the_Hour_of_Code⠀⇛ Launched in 2013, Hour of Code is an initiative to introduce young people to computer science using fun one-hour tutorials. To date, over 100 million young people have completed an hour of code with it. # ⚓ Stacey on IoT ☛ The_industrial_IoT_is_getting_the_IT treatment⠀⇛ Before your eyes glaze over wondering why I’m spending so much time on a networking chip, bear with me. This isn’t just a chip announcement; it’s a milestone indicating that the differences in operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) are finally converging. And once they converge it’s all going to be IP. The result will be a huge market for traditional IT vendors up and down the stack. It will also put traditional OT vendors on the defense. # ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ SB_Components_introduces_SquaryPi_&_SquaryFi for_portable_embedded_apps⠀⇛ Last week, SB Components released the SquaryPi and SquaryFi embedded platforms which are based on the RP2040 silicon and the ESP-12E respectively. Both devices feature a 1.54” LCD display along with various interfaces. The company is also offering an expansion PCB board to add and mix these embedded devices.   # ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ Elkhart_Lake_3.5”_SBC_equipped_dual_2.5GbE LAN_and_PCIe_x4_slot⠀⇛ The WAFER-EHL from ICP is a 3.5” Single Board Computer built around the low-power 2.0 GHz Intel Celeron J6412. The SBC is available with dual 2.5GbE RJ45 ports, triple display support, 1x M.2 socket, 1x PCIe Gen3 x4 among other peripherals. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Purism ☛ How_to_Setup_Encrypted_Chat_on_Librem_Devices_– Purism⠀⇛ Whether on a Librem 14 laptop or a Librem 5 phone, using Matrix is one of the best free software solutions for communication. It offers end-to-end encryption where the keys are fully in your control; In other words, Matrix servers can’t read your encrypted messages at all. Recently our Librem 5 chat application, Chats, announced official support for Matrix and in this guide we’ll walk you through creating your own Matrix account and configuring Chats to use it. o § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Giveaway_Week_2022_winners_announced!_–_CNX Software⠀⇛ # ⚓ Android Police ☛ Here’s_how_predictive_back_navigation_will work_on_Android_14⠀⇛ # ⚓ 9to5Google ☛ Samsung_Android_13_update:_What_devices_will get_the_upgrade?⠀⇛ # ⚓ 9to5Google ☛ Samsung_brings_Android_13_to_more_devices_in the_United_States⠀⇛ # ⚓ Nokia_5.3_Android_12_update_bricking_some_units_and_other issues⠀⇛ # ⚓ XDA ☛ I_use_these_three_apps_to_make_my_Android_homescreen stand_out,_and_you_should_too⠀⇛ # ⚓ The Sun ☛ Hidden_‘tap_trick’_instantly_makes_your_Android phone_faster_–_and_it’s_totally_free_|_The_Sun⠀⇛ # ⚓ 9to5Google ☛ LumaFusion_hands-on:_Best_editing_suite_on Android_or_ChromeOS⠀⇛ # ⚓ 9to5Google ☛ Now_TV_arrives_on_Google_TV_and_Android_TV⠀⇛ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ Qualcomm_Snapdragon_8_Gen_2_is_Android’s_Next Flagship_Processor⠀⇛ # ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ In-Display_Fingerprint_Scanner_Not_Working_on Android?_Try_These_Fixes⠀⇛ * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Mastodon_Comes_To_The_IBM_PC_|_Hackaday⠀⇛ Elon Musk has bought Twitter for an eye-watering sum, and his live adventures in chaotic mismanagement of a social media company have become a compelling performance for the rest of us. As we munch on our tasty popcorn and enjoy the show, many Twitter users have jumped ship for the open-source alternative Mastodon. It offers much to the escapee including instances tailored to particular communities, but aside from all that it’s got something Twitter never had. You can now use a Mastodon client on an IBM PC. Many of you are no doubt looking askance at us, as you have been Tooting for years from behind the keyboard of a PC. But it’s likely that the PC you’re using is a generic modern x86 machine running an up-to-date operating system such as a GNU/Linux flavour or Microsoft Windows, by contrast here we’re referring to the original, the daddy of them all. Because the client we’re talking about is DOStodon, designed to run on a real IBM PC as though it’s the early 1980s again. o ⚓ Wired ☛ The_Man_Behind_Mastodon_Built_It_for_This_Moment⠀⇛ Since Musk took over Twitter, Rochko has been working long hours to keep his own server, Mastodon.Social, running, while also preparing a major upgrade to Mastodon, but he took time to videochat with WIRED from his home in Germany. The conversation has been edited for length and clarity. o ⚓ Armin Ronacher ☛ Scaling_Mastodon_is_Impossible⠀⇛ In light of recent events at Twitter a lot of the people that I follow (or used to follow) on that platform have started evaluating (or moved) to Mastodon. And I also have a Mastodon account now. But after a few days with this thing I have a lot of thoughts on this that are too long for a Tweet or Toot. Since some of my followers asked though I decided do a longform version of this and explain my dissatifaction with Mastodon a bit better. The short version of this is that I believe that Mastodon — more specifically federation and decentralization won’t work out. o ⚓ Bèr Kessels ☛ The_Fediverse_is_Inefficient_(but_that’s_a_good trade-off)⠀⇛ Let’s address the mammoth in the room: the fediverse, the network of mastodon servers, is very inefficient. In this post I’ll show why it is inefficient and why that isn’t a problem. A great analogy to explain this with is growing food. o ⚓ Matt Rickard ☛ On_the_Mastodon_Experiment⠀⇛ Users don’t want to host their own servers. Even the most technical ones. SaaS is the optimal solution. I’m an avid believer in running open-source software and controlling your own destiny, but for the vast majority of services, I don’t want to manage it. Moderation and user experience vary from instance to instance. It’s hard to sustain at scale. In practice, decentralized moderation ends up as a series of fiefdoms without accountability (e.g., if you don’t like it, find another server). o ⚓ Offpunk_1.7 :_Offpunk_and_Sourcehut⠀⇛ Releasing Offpunk 1.7 today which fixes a handful of crashes and brings some nice features. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Blender_Builds_LEGO_Models⠀⇛ Blender is a free and open source computer graphics package that’s used in the production of everything from video games to feature films. Now, as demonstrated by [Joey Carlino], the popular program can even be used to convert models into LEGO. o § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ # § Mozilla⠀➾ # ⚓ uni Toronto ☛ Firefox_will_now_copy_non-breaking spaces_from_HTML_and_that_can_be_a_problem⠀⇛ For many years, Firefox’s copy and paste had a limitation or bug, which is that if you selected something that contained non- breaking spaces and copied it, the non- breaking spaces turned into regular spaces when you pasted. This was traced in bug #359303 and then bug #1769534. In recent Firefox Nightly builds, Mozilla (finally) changed this behavior, but the change has created a new issue for some people, me included. At least on Unix, there are a number of things that don’t consider non- breaking spaces to be spaces (or whitespace). # ⚓ Mozilla ☛ Mozilla_Open_Policy_&_Advocacy_Blog: Mozilla_Comments_on_FTC’s_“Commercial_Surveillance_and Data_Security”_Advance_Notice_of_Proposed_Rulemaking⠀⇛ Like regulators around the world, the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is exploring the possibility of new rules to protect consumer privacy online. We’re excited to see the FTC take this important step and ask key questions surrounding commercial surveillance and data security practices, from advertising and transparency to data collection and deceptive design practices. Mozilla has a long track record on privacy. It’s an integral aspect of our Manifesto, where we state that individuals’ security and privacy on the internet are fundamental and must not be treated as optional. It’s evidenced in our products and in our collaboration with others in industry to forge solutions to create a better, more private online experience. But we can’t do it alone. Without rules of the road, sufficient incentive won’t exist to shift the rest of the industry to more privacy preserving practices. To meet that need, we’ve called for comprehensive privacy legislation like the American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA), greater ad transparency, and strong enforcement around the world. In our latest submission to the FTC, we detail the urgent need for US regulators and policymakers to take action to create a healthier internet. o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] Bèr Kessels ☛ “How_do_I_test_X”_is_almost_always answered_with_“by_controlling_X”⠀⇛ First, there is the question: “can I control X?”. Because if you cannot, testing it becomes impossible. When X is some external service, or tool, for example a payment provider or email- server, and there is no way to control it, you cannot (, and therefore should not) test it. # ⚓ Matt Rickard ☛ On_Launching⠀⇛ Consumer products lend themselves more to feature creep, which is the enemy of PMF. It’s never been easier to create software, which means faster MVPs, but also the possibility to build more out before you even reach your users. # ⚓ ChiselStrike ☛ Why_middleware_may_not_be_the_right abstraction_for_your_data_policies.⠀⇛ Every frontend developer knows, or at least suspects, that backends are hard. But why would that be? There is nothing intrinsically difficult with the business logic of backends: after all, it’s just code and algorithms. A fizzbuzz is a fizzbuzz: equally useless on the backend as it is on the frontend. # ⚓ Lawrence Tratt ☛ More_Evidence_for_Problems_in_VM_Warmup⠀⇛ VMs start programs running in an interpreter where they observe which portions run frequently. Those portions are then compiled into machine code which can then be used in place of the interpreter. The period between starting the program and all of the JIT compilation completing is called the warmup time. Once warmup is complete, the program reaches a steady state of peak performance. At least, that’s what’s supposed to happen: our work showed that, on widely studied small benchmarks, it often doesn’t. Sometimes programs don’t hit a steady state; sometimes, if they do reach a steady state, it’s slower than what came before; and some programs are inconsistent in whether they hit a steady state or not. A couple of examples hopefully help give you an idea. Here’s an example of a “good” benchmark from our dataset which starts slow and hits a steady state of peak performance: [...] # ⚓ Making_a_Go_program_42%_faster_with_a_one_character change⠀⇛ If you read the title and thought “well, you were probably just doing something silly beforehand”, you’re right! But what is programming if not an exercise in making silly mistakes? Tracking down silly mistakes is where all the fun is to be had! I’ll also state the usual benchmarking caveat up front: the 42% speedup was measured while running the program on my data on my computer, so take that number with a big old pinch of salt. # ⚓ Rlang ☛ Promoting_the_Use_of_R_in_Mali⠀⇛ The R Consortium recently caught up with Fousseynou Bah of the Bamako Data Science Group (also on Facebook) and talked about the budding R community in Mali. Online events allowed the group to broaden its horizons and invite international speakers to present at their events. They hope to host hybrid events in the future to make the most out of both online and physical event formats. # § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ Trail Of Bits ☛ Are_you_sure_your_Python_ABI_is actually_stable?⠀⇛ The age of Python’s packaging ecosystem also sets it apart: among general-purpose languages, it is predated only by Perl’s CPAN. This, combined with the mostly independent development of packaging tooling and standards, has made Python’s ecosystem among the more complex of the major programming language ecosystems. Those complexities include: [...] # ⚓ Python Speed ☛ Who_controls_parallelism?_A disagreement_that_leads_to_slower_code⠀⇛ If you’re using NumPy, Polars, Zarr, or many other libraries, setting a single environment variable or calling a single API function might make your code run 20%-80% faster. Or, more accurately, it may be that your code is running that much more slowly than it ought to. The problem? A conflict over who controls parallelism: your application, or the libraries it uses. Let’s see an example, and how you can solve it. * § Leftovers⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ EV_Sales_Sticking_Point:_People_Still_Want_Manual Transmissions⠀⇛ Call me crazy, but I’m ride or die for manual transmissions. I drove enough go-karts and played enough Pole Position as a kid to know that shifting the gears yourself is simply where it’s at when it comes to tooling around in anything that isn’t human-powered. After all, manuals can be roll-started. A driver has options other than braking and praying on slippery roads. Any sports car worth its rich Corinthian leather (or whatever) has a manual transmission, right? And you know that Rush’s Red Barchetta ain’t no automatic. Face it, shifting gears is just plain cooler. And it’s not a chore if it gets you more, although the fuel efficiency thing is a myth at this point. o ⚓ Meduza ☛ Masters_of_adaptation_András_Tóth-Czifra_explains_how the_war_on_Ukraine_is_reshaping_Russia’s_digital_underground_— Meduza⠀⇛ o ⚓ The Nation ☛ The_Limits_of_Language⠀⇛ it was something about the bounce in my step, in the rippling jiggle of my belly & breasts, something about the periwinkle painted pinkies, the purple pointers, the chipping its own kind of fashioning, something about the bend of the wrist, of the flick, about the way it shares the blunt, something about passing, breaths falsetto’d, about the difficulty of altitudes— & maybe less how & why, more when & where— all of the comings in & out, something about pride with a sibling fear of my own body, someone checking the clock, how a sentence shivers, something about my sentient shivering, everything about how i’m too sensitive sometimes, too sensual, something suspect & censured, something to do with attunement, with pulses in the blood, something about water & thickness & viscosity, something more like nectar, yeah, like golden honey, like golden bees & their buzzing geographies—the gut brain in the hive mind, something closer to how land shifts & water waves & waves, something like the supple becoming of flora & fungi, then, of drifting pollen, yeah, reaching closer to something in how limbs can reach & how nails reach in that reach like a camera eye zooming in, out, in, all a single take o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Rapid_Prototyping_To_Measure_Turbidity_In_Rapids⠀⇛ [RiverTechJess] is in the process of getting a PhD in environmental engineering and has devoted a chapter to creating a turbidity sensor for river network monitoring. Environmental sensing benefits from being able to measure accurately and frequently, so providing low cost devices helps get more data and excuse the occasional device loss that’s bound to happen when deploying electronics out in the wild. Towards this end, [RiverTechJess] has created a low cost turbidity sensor that rivals the more expensive alternatives in cost and accuracy. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Wearable_Sensor_Trained_To_Count_Coughs⠀⇛ There are plenty of problems that are easy for humans to solve, but are almost impossibly difficult for computers. Even though it seems that with modern computing power being what it is we should be able to solve a lot of these problems, things like identifying objects in images remains fairly difficult. Similarly, identifying specific sounds within audio samples remains problematic, and as [Eivind] found, is holding up a lot of medical research to boot. To solve one specific problem he created a system for counting coughs of medical patients. o ⚓ Chris Hannah ☛ Reaching_the_Hacker_News_Front_Page⠀⇛ As you may have seen, last night I wrote about my experience using Arc Browser. I then submitted this blog post to Hacker News. Usually this gets a tiny bit of attention. But this time, it managed to get on to the front page. The highest I saw it was at 12, although the bulk of the views were once I went to sleep, so who knows, it could have been higher. Nevertheless, it’s been common to write a post to analyse the impact of being on the Hacker News front page, so since it’s now dropped to the second page after around 14 hours, I thought I’d write about the impact it had. o ⚓ Jes Olson ☛ .io_domains_considered_harmful⠀⇛ [...] but what people may not know is that the .io domain name has an annoying history. o ⚓ Buttondown ☛ Why_do_we_call_it_“boilerplate_code?”⠀⇛ Now that Twitter is on a downward spiral I’m rewriting my favorite tweetstorms in a more permanent medium, so here’s the first: why do we have the term “boilerplate code”? It comes from the peculiar interplay of two industrial revolution technologies: steam engines and hot metal typesetting. o ⚓ Next_Twitter_Announcements_–_A_Bingo_Card⠀⇛ Since I was joking about this with two friends over text message about the poor decisions that the new head of Twitter is making, and I asked “Is there a bingo card?” and one said “You should absolutely make one!” o ⚓ Wired ☛ Five_real-world_arcologies_under_construction⠀⇛ The individual casinos themselves have many arcological features too, including careful climate control, isolation from the traditional day/night cycle, and careful management of scarce resources. It differs from many of the other projects in this list, however, by its lack of any real commitment to sustainability or environmental factors. In fact, in many ways it stands as the antithesis of those principles. o ⚓ Axios ☛ Web3_is_in_FTX’s_blast_radius⠀⇛ Web3, at its heart, is all about using blockchains and [cryptocurrency] tokens as tools for organizing decision- making, governance and financial incentives in every realm of human endeavor — from virtual world-building to social networking and from accounting to art-making. o ⚓ Space ☛ US_military’s_X-37B_space_plane_lands,_ending_record- breaking_mystery_mission⠀⇛ The robotic X-37B touched down at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida today (Nov. 12) at 5:22 a.m. EST (1022 GMT). The winged vehicle had spent 908 days in orbit — more than four months longer than any previous X- 37B flight. o ⚓ Counter Punch ☛ Ken_Burns,_US_and_the_Holocaust⠀⇛ That said, it would be fair for one to assume that with thirty-five films in the can (and six new efforts on the way) his perpetually expanding cannon would have a reasonable number of miscues, or lackluster projects. But I must say, although I have not experienced all his titles, Burns, in my opinion, has been rather consistent in delivering a sustained level of quality and integrity, in his bare-knuckled approach to filmmaking. Notwithstanding superb gems like, The Civil War, Baseball, Lewis & Clark: The Journey of the Corps of Discovery, Jazz, Unforgiveable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson, The Dust Bowl and Hemingway, his latest endeavor, The U.S. and the Holocaust is the most compelling film Burns has delivered. The touching three- part documentary befittingly takes the United States (and its WWII allies) to task, for their negligent response to Germany’s inhumane assault on the European Jewish community. Full disclosure, my grandfather, Jerome (Jerry) Netburn, who I did not have the pleasure of meeting, was a Russian Jew who fought in World War II, but one does not have to be born of Jewish ancestry to voice displeasure in the loss of, approximately, six million innocent lives… o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ Multi-ciphertext_security_degradation_for_lattices⠀⇛ Abstract. Typical lattice-based cryptosystems are commonly believed to resist multi-target attacks. For example, the New Hope proposal stated that it avoids “all-for-the-price-of-one attacks”. An ACM CCS 2021 paper from Duman–Hövelmanns–Kiltz–Lyubashevsky–Seiler stated that “we can show that AdvIND-CPA PKE ≈ Adv(n,qC )- IND-CPA PKE ” for “lattice-based schemes” such as Kyber, i.e. that one-out-of-many-target IND-CPA is as difficult to break as single-target IND-CPA, assuming “the hardness of MLWE as originally defined for the purpose of worst-case to average- case reductions”. Meanwhile NIST expressed concern regarding multi-target attacks against non-lattice cryptosystems. This paper quantifies the asymptotic impact of multiple ciphertexts per public key upon existing heuristic analyses of known lattice attacks. The qualitative conclusions are that typical lattice PKEs asymptotically degrade in heuristic multi- ciphertext IND-CPA security as the number of ciphertexts increases. These PKE attacks also imply multi-ciphertext IND-CCA2 attacks against typical constructions of lattice KEMs. This shows a contradiction between (1) the existing heuristics and (2) the idea that multi-target security matches single-target security. The asymptotic heuristic security degradation is exponential in Θ(n) for decrypting many ciphertexts, cutting a constant fraction out of the total number of bits of security, and exponential in Θ(n/ log n) for decrypting one out of many ciphertexts, for conservative cryptosystem parameters. Furthermore, whether or not the existing heuristics are correct, (1) there are flaws in the claim of provable multi-target security based on MLWE, and (2) there is a 288- guess attack breaking one out of 240 ciphertexts for a FrodoKEM-640 public key. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ The_Blood_Factory:_New_Research_May_Open_The Door_To_Artificial_Blood⠀⇛ There were news stories afoot this week with somewhat breathless headlines that suggested a medical breakthrough was at hand: “In a 1st, two people receive transfusions of lab-grown blood cells.” A headline like that certainly catches the eye, especially as the holidays approach and the inevitable calls for increased blood donations that always seem to happen this time of year as the supply gets pinched. Does a headline like that mean that someone is working on completely artificial blood? o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Niall Murphy ☛ Reflections_on_SREcon_EMEA_2022⠀⇛ Though I’ve been involved with SREcon EMEA many times before, this time was unique for two reasons: firstly and most importantly, we hadn’t been physically together since late 2019, and secondly, I was program co-chair (alongside Daria Barteneva) – a new experience for me. With the freshness of the experience still in mind, I thought it was the perfect moment to write up my reflections. # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ Missouri’s_Sheltered_Workshops_Have_a_2.3% Graduation_Rate⠀⇛ One weekday morning in July, Kerstie Bramlet was at her workstation inside the Warren County Sheltered Workshop near St. Louis, Missouri, putting plastic labels on rabbit-meat dog chews one by one. The 30-year-old, who wore a St. Louis Cardinals shirt and a blue-and-white tie-dye hat, is autistic and has intellectual disabilities. She was on dog- chew assignment that day with a dozen or so coworkers, who are also disabled. As they chatted excitedly about an upcoming bocce ball tournament — part of a local Special Olympics event — Bramlet and her coworkers formed an assembly line of sorts, some counting the dog chews using a gridded piece of paper to ensure they reached the right total before handing them off to a supervisor for shrink- wrapping. # ⚓ The Nation ☛ Was_This_Professor_Fired_for_Having_Tourette Syndrome?⠀⇛ In January 2020, Dutchess Community College in New York banned a photography professor named Lowell Handler from its property and declared him unqualified to continue teaching there. Handler, the school claimed, had touched students “in a sexual manner” without their consent and peppered his classes with suggestive comments. “Students have a right to an educational environment free of sexual harassment and forced touching,” wrote then- president Pamela Edington. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Getting_To_The_Heart_Of_A_Baofeng⠀⇛ In amateur radio circles, almost no single piece of equipment serves as more of a magnet for controversy than the humble Baofeng handheld transceiver. It’s understandable — the radio is a shining example of value engineering, with just enough parts to its job while staying just on the edge of FCC rules. And at about $25 a pop, the radios are cheap enough that experimentation is practically a requirement of ownership. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ An_Oscilloscope_with_ARM+FPGA+ADC_scheme_CNX Software⠀⇛ The FNIRSI 1013D is a dual-channel flat-panel oscilloscope with a rich set of features. It is cost-effective and useful to people in the maintenance and R&D industries. Although it has been on the market for a few years, I purchased one, and I decided to introduce it and disassemble it to check out the hardware design. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Rlang ☛ Using_functional_analysis_to_model_air_pollution data_in_R⠀⇛ The data comes from DEFRA’s (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Automatic Urban and Rural Network (AURN), which reports the level of nitrogen dioxide (among other pollutants) in the air every hour at 164 different locations. For this analysis, we considered data recorded between November 6, 2018 to November 6, 2022. The data can be downloaded from uk- air.defra.gov.uk/data/data_selector_service. # ⚓ NPR ☛ Her_miscarriage_left_her_bleeding_profusely._An_Ohio ER_sent_her_home_to_wait⠀⇛ Holeyman, Zielke’s husband, says hospital staff seemed “hesitant.” The two of them wondered at the ER if that was because of Ohio’s new six-week abortion ban. “I wish someone had come out and said, ‘Hey, this is a state law, this is what we’re afraid of,’ and was a little more frank,” he says. Instead he says, paraphrasing what he heard: “It was, ‘Well, we don’t know if this [pregnancy] is viable, this could still be viable.

Most of the drugmakers that produced the most opioids and the biggest drug distribution companies have already reached settlements. With the largest pharmacies now settling, it represents a shift in the opioid litigation saga.

UPFs now account for almost 60 per cent of all the calories eaten in the UK. And they all come with a hefty dose of additives; artificial colours and sweeteners, emulsifiers and other chemicals designed to enhance the appearance, taste, texture and shelf life of manufactured food. But are all these additives safe? # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ A_Florida_Fund_for_Injured_Kids_Raided Medicaid._Now_It’s_Repaying_$51_Million.⠀⇛ Florida’s long-troubled compensation fund for infants born with catastrophic brain injuries has resolved one of its thorniest disputes: the claim that it avoided hundreds of millions in health care costs by raiding the safety net for impoverished Floridians. The Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Association, or NICA, settled a three-year-old whistleblower complaint that alleged the program grew assets of nearly $1.7 billion partly by dumping health care and caregiving costs onto Medicaid, the state-federal insurer for poverty- stricken and disabled Floridians. o § Microsoft Security Failures and Lies⠀➾ # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Microsoft_Says_China_Is_Abusing_Vulnerability Disclosure_Requirements_To_Hoard_Exploits [Ed: Microsoft is more an enemy than China is.

Despite revolutions, sieges, World War I shelling, and World War II bombings, Paris still possesses a remarkable architectural unity. The city’s center looks much as it did in the late 19th century. But while the scars are not immediately visible, they are there, and the worst of them are self- inflicted: the product of a single hideous week in May 1871.

When Ralph Nader coined the phrase, “information is the currency of democracy”, he was talking about timely information and information beyond what government actively decides to share. And if you agree with the US consumer and transparency advocate’s proposition, then last week’s examination of the Information Commissioner’s (IC) performance at Senate Estimates by Greens Senator David Shoebridge would cause serious concern. Last financial year the IC received 1956 applications to reviews agencies’ Freedom of Information (FOI) access refusals. That’s up 60% from the previous year. And of those, the IC only got through 1377.

Earlier today she spoke at a COP27 event and blasted world leaders for not doing more. She describes the need for wealthy nations gathered at the U.N. climate conference, particularly the U.S., to finance loss and damage for poorer nations in the Global South. “For the current and historic emitters, they need to take responsibility for the climate crisis, and they need to pay for this crisis,” says Nakate. # ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ It’s_Not_Just_Coca-Cola:_Corporations_Have_Co- Opted_the_UN_Climate_Talks⠀⇛ COP27 is covered with logos.

German, Italian and other companies have been scouring Africa for alternatives to Russian supplies in the wake of the February invasion of Ukraine, raising fears that new projects will lock Africa into long-term dependence on fossil fuels.At least nine gas deals have been struck so far on the sidelines of the negotiations – known as COP27 – five involving Africa. In the run-up to the summit, Egypt signed a memorandum of understanding with Germany to expand liquefied natural gas (LNG) export capacity by 2050. Last week, Tanzania committed to a $40 billion LNG deal with Equinor and Shell, while Germany and the United States agreed to finance Egyptian renewables to “free up” gas for export.“European companies should not be here in Africa,” said Dean Bhekumuzi Bhebhe, a South Africa-based campaigner for the Don’t Gas Africa coalition of advocacy groups, which rallied dozens of protesters in a designated space at the tightly-marshalled venue in the resort of Sharm el- Sheikh on Tuesday. # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ Fossil_Fuel_Lobbyists_Gather_at_COP27_as_Climate Crisis_Devastates_Africa⠀⇛ # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ Hossam_Bahgat_on_the_“Full-Scale_Human Rights_Crisis”_in_Egypt_as_Country_Hosts_COP27⠀⇛ Broadcasting from COP27, the U.N. climate conference in Sharm el-Sheikh, we speak to leading Egyptian human rights advocate and journalist Hossam Bahgat about how authorities have launched a widespread crackdown on political dissent. Hundreds have been arrested, including lawyers and journalists, and police have been stopping people randomly on the streets of Cairo and other cities to search the contents of their phones. Meanwhile, imprisoned British Egyptian activist Alaa Abd El- Fattah has sent a letter notifying his family that he has stopped his hunger strike and asked for them to visit on Thursday. Bahgat disagrees with calls to boycott COP27, and gained entry through asking a foreign environmental group to include him. “Sustained engagement with the Egyptian government in public and private about its catastrophic human rights record can actually lead to some change,” says Bahgat, executive director of the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Opinion_|_Urgent_Climate_Action_Is_Needed and_Nuclear_Power_Is_Not_the_Answer⠀⇛ Just as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has highlighted Europe’s dangerous dependence on fossil fuels, increasingly frequent and intense climate- driven weather events are highlighting the death and destruction that fossil-fuel dependence has wrought. Understandably, political and public pressure to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, move away from insecure primary energy supplies, and develop new, reliable, secure, and affordable energy sources is at an all-time high. But rather than rushing ahead, we need to consider carefully which options are most realistic, and how they will be deployed and operate in the real world. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Major_Media_Outlets_From_20+_Nations_Demand Windfall_Profits_Tax_on_Big_Oil⠀⇛ More than 30 major media outlets from countries on nearly every continent published an editorial Tuesday calling on governments to impose a windfall profits tax on fossil fuel giants that have made a killing as poor nations face devastating climate impacts and people worldwide struggle to heat their homes, feed their families, and pay rent. “As a bare minimum, a windfall tax on the combined profits of the largest oil and gas companies—estimated at almost $100bn in the first three months of the year—needs to be enacted,” reads the editorial, which appeared at The Guardian in the U.K., The Nation and Rolling Stone in the U.S., The Hindu in India, Camunda News in Angola, El Espectador in Colombia, and dozens of other publications. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Vanessa_Nakate_Slams_World_Leaders_for Perpetuating_Deadly_Fossil_Fuels⠀⇛ Ugandan climate justice activist Vanessa Nakate denounced world leaders Tuesday for continuing to support new coal, oil, and gas projects despite overwhelming evidence that extracting and burning more fossil fuels will exacerbate deadly climate chaos. “You are sowing the wind and frontline communities are reaping the whirlwind.” # § Energy⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Collapsed_[Cryptocurrency]_Exchange FTX_Could_Owe_More_Than_1_Million_Creditors⠀⇛ The firm’s founder and chief executive, Sam Bankman-Fried, announced his resignation when the bankruptcy papers were filed on Friday in federal bankruptcy court in Delaware. Mr. Bankman-Fried had agreed to step aside at around 4:30 a.m. that day, the new filing said, after consulting with his own legal team. He handed control to John J. Ray III, a veteran of corporate crises. Since then, Mr. Ray and other FTX officials have worked “around the clock” to get the company in order, according to the bankruptcy filing. The firm halted trading and responded to a “cyberattack” reported late on Friday night, the filing said. # ⚓ Craig Murray ☛ FTX⠀⇛ The FTX story seems truly remarkable. From being founded only in 2017 it rose to be a “partner organisation” of the World Economic Forum and the second largest donor to Biden and the Democrat’s mid-term election campaign.

The World Economic Forum has deleted its FTX page, but the Wayback machine has it: [...] # ⚓ Reuters ☛ Exclusive:_At_least_$1_billion_of_client funds_missing_at_failed_crypto_firm_FTX⠀⇛ The exchange’s founder Sam Bankman-Fried secretly transferred $10 billion of customer funds from FTX to Bankman-Fried’s trading company Alameda Research, the people told Reuters. A large portion of that total has since disappeared, they said. One source put the missing amount at about $1.7 billion. The other said the gap was between $1 billion and $2 billion. # ⚓ CNBC ☛ Between_$1_billion_and_$2_billion_of_FTX customer_funds_have_disappeared,_SBF_had_a_secret_‘back door’_to_transfer_billions:_Report⠀⇛ Both Reuters and The Wall Street Journal found that Bankman-Fried, now the ex-CEO of FTX, transferred $10 billion of customer funds from his crypto exchange to the digital asset trading house, Alameda Research. Alameda, also founded by Bankman-Fried, was considered to be a sister company to FTX. Those cozy ties are now under investigation by multiple regulators, including the Department of Justice, as well as the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is probing how FTX handled customer funds, according to multiple reports. # ⚓ SBF_built_bespoke_‘backdoor’_to_outwit_FTX_compliance systems:_Reuters⠀⇛ He used bespoke software that was designed so that even external auditors would not be notified of changes to FTX books, the report said.

All off to Caribbean tax havens. What the blazes are we doing allowing a bunch of tax cheats to gut our essential services? What’s the scam? The scam is that if you are a financial engineering tax grifter from overseas and don’t pay corporate income tax in Australia, you have a 30% advantage over local companies when it comes to winning takeover bids. And these guys from Brookfield are pinning their ears back. Origin Energy is their latest target. And why not? They must be quietly thinking Australia’s politicians and policy-makers are a bunch of supreme numpties. A couple of years ago, Brookfield bought 41 private hospitals via the Healthscope takeover. These essential services are now controlled in the Cayman Islands. Then it bought a slather of aged care assets when it bought Aveo. Took that to Bermuda.

The Tax Justice Network’s latest assessment of the state of global taxation castigates the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)—often described as “the rich countries’ club”—for failing to uphold basic tax transparency standards in the decade since the G20 directed OECD nations to collect and disclose country-by-country data on corporate profit shifting. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Opinion_|_Asking_the_Right_Post-Election Questions_in_a_Nation_Adrift⠀⇛ Britons mourned the recent passing of Queen Elizabeth II, and understandably so.

What started as a space for banalities quickly evolved into a space for connection and political organizing. The Arab Spring was not the only social movement to use sharing platforms to raise international awareness of their cause. Movements like #BlackLivesMatter in the United States, #BringBackOurGirls in Nigeria, and #MyDressMyChoice in Kenya used Twitter to bring their local messages to the world. In Kenya and Senegal, groups used Twitter to crowdsource parallel vote tallying and independent election monitoring, improving election outcomes. But while the future of the platform has always been precarious—its growth long ago outpaced its owners’ understanding of how it should function—Musk represents a new, urgent threat to the company. # ⚓ Computer World ☛ Tech_layoffs_in_2022:_A_timeline⠀⇛ Here are some of the most prominent technology layoffs the industry has experienced recently. # ⚓ BBC ☛ Amazon_staff_laid_off_as_tech_giants_cut_costs, according_to_LinkedIn_posts⠀⇛ Earlier this week it was reported that the company is planning to cut 10,000 jobs, roughly 3% of its office staff.

Similar to the way Donald Trump comported himself while in the Oval Office, Musk seems to be less interested in reviving the company than he is doing anything possible to create drama that yields something even more important to him than revenue: attention. And no company can survive this kind of insanity. Not that I think Twitter is literally going to cease to exist. While speculation is rampant right now that its state of technical disrepair will see the platform combust in a puff of smoke any day now, I think we’re about to be watching something worse: Twitter’s inevitable fade over the course of multiple years.

The results show that it’s time for Democrats to rethink their approach on public safety. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Democrats_Urged_to_Embrace_Agenda_to_Combat Crisis_of_‘Corporate_Power’_in_US⠀⇛ The economic justice group Fight Corporate Monopolies on Tuesday said the Democratic Party must take note of the midterm electoral victories of a number of progressive candidates who have been outspoken about their plans to fight corporate greed, and enact a legislative agenda to combat what the group called a “corporate power crisis” in the United States. “Legislators have the next two years to enact an economic populist, pro-democracy agenda—one that breaks through partisan divides—that would rebalance power away from monopolies, corporate special interests, and Wall Street,” said the organization as it unveiled its Corporate Power Agenda. # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Omar,_AOC_Lead_Letter_Urging_Biden_to Extend_Marijuana_Pardons_to_Immigrants⠀⇛ More than a dozen Democratic lawmakers sent a letter to President Joe Biden Tuesday urging him to pardon all simple marijuana possession offenses—regardless of immigration status—and to prioritize decriminalizing marijuana and reopening the immigration cases of people deported for possession of the drug. Last month, Biden issued a “full, complete, and unconditional pardon to all current United States citizens and lawful permanent residents” convicted of simple marijuana possession under federal law. The move affected more than 6,500 people, but noncitizen immigrants were excluded from relief and remain vulnerable to deportation for the same offense. # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ Trump-Backed_Election_Denier_Kari_Lake_Loses Arizona_Gubernatorial_Race⠀⇛ # ⚓ Meduza ☛ ‘He_grasps_things_very_quickly’:_Evgeny Prigozhin’s_covert_bid_for_power_in_an_unstable_Russia_—_and what_he_learned_from_Alexey_Navalny_—_Meduza⠀⇛ # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Devin_Nunes_Learns_That_If_He’s_Going_To_Sue_For Suggesting_His_Family_Hired_Undocumented_Workers,_Part_Of_The Lawsuit_Is_Finding_Out_If_The_Workers_Are_Documented⠀⇛ Well, well, well. As you may recall, back in 2019 Devin Nunes and his bumbling lawyer Steven Biss sued Esquire magazine and reporter Ryan Lizza because Nunes really did not like this article about Nunes’ parents and their family farm, which is actually in Iowa, rather than California as many people believed. It’s an interesting article, in large part because of the way the town sort of freaked out when they realized Lizza was working on an article. The headline of the article talks about a “politically explosive secret,” and I took it to mean the fact that the farm that Nunes’ regularly talked about had (very quietly) moved to Iowa, rather than staying in California. But, there is at least a vague suggestion that the farm might hire undocumented workers, since that was standard practice for farms in that part of Iowa. Lizza’s article doesn’t come out and say that, but it does note this: # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ Sanders:_Democrats_Must_Curb_Billionaires’_Grip on_Elections_to_Save_Democracy⠀⇛ # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ Billionaire-Funded_“Anti-Science”_Campaigns_Are Causing_Unnecessary_Deaths⠀⇛ # ⚓ The Nation ☛ New_York_State_Cost_Democrats_Control_of Congress._Will_Anyone_Be_Held_Accountable?⠀⇛ It was up to you, New York.

But companies keep flocking to the app, which says it has more than one billion users, because it appears to have reach and cultural cachet, particularly among young adults. TikTok’s users spend an average of 96 minutes a day on the app — nearly five times what they spend on Snapchat, triple their time on Twitter and almost twice as much as their time on Facebook and Instagram, according to the data analytics company Sensor Tower. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ CBC ☛ Director_got_death_threats_over_film_poster_featuring Hindu_goddess._Now_she’s_getting_a_protest_screening_|_CBC News⠀⇛ Film pulled from Toronto university series after Leena Manimekalai tweeted poster of goddess Kali smoking o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ VOA News ☛ Vietnam_Using_Jail_to_‘Silence’_Human_Rights Journalist,_Lawyer_Says⠀⇛ Kurtulus Bastimar, an international human rights lawyer representing Trang, believes the legal case against his client is an attempt to stifle her. “In order to silence Pham, the government is trying to give the impression that her detention is related to state security issues and making ‘anti- state propaganda,’ when this is not true,” Bastimar said in a phone interview with VOA. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Two_RFE/RL_Correspondents_Released_From_Police Custody_In_Moscow⠀⇛ [...] Yury Lebedev and Yelizaveta Movchan were taken to a police station after a person whom the reporters wanted to interview called the police. [...] # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ Israel_Refuses_to_Cooperate_With_US_Probe Into_Palestinian-American_Journalist’s_Killing⠀⇛ The family of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh expressed hope Tuesday that the FBI’s newly announced investigation into her death will bring them “closer to justice,” as Israeli officials said they will not cooperate with the FBI and condemned the U.S. for opening a probe at all. Israeli Foreign Minister Benny Gantz suggested the Biden administration should accept the “professional, independent investigation” already conducted by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), which concluded that the bullet that killed Abu Akleh in the occupied West Bank in May was too damaged to determine who had fired it. o § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ # ⚓ The Nation ☛ White_Nationalist_Hate_Is_Infiltrating_Our Police⠀⇛ It would be the first time the government has endeavored to do so, despite plenty of studies finding that the issue is a major problem. Over 140 years after Reconstruction saw slave patrols reform as Southern police departments, a 2006 FBI report warned of a new tide of “White Supremacist Infiltration of Law Enforcement.” Hate groups, the paper noted, have long found police departments to be fertile recruitment grounds, but there was now evidence of “self-initiated efforts by…those already within law enforcement ranks, to volunteer their professional resources to white supremacist causes.” Three years later, a Department of Homeland Security report predicted that the white backlash to a Black president might become “the most dangerous domestic terrorism threat in the United States”; the report was rescinded in the face of conservative outrage. By 2015, an internal FBI counterterrorism guide admitted that agency investigations of white supremacist and other domestic terrorist groups “often have identified active links to law enforcement officers.” # ⚓ Stacey on IoT ☛ Amazon_is_building_robots_at_scale_in Massachusetts⠀⇛ Amazon has built a fleet of robots to help workers get packages from its warehouses to your door, and on Thursday it showed off two new ones. The first is Sparrow, a machine designed to pick up items (not packages) from a container and place them in a different container. The second is a concept for a new delivery drone called the MK30. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Taliban_bans_Afghan_women_from_gyms,_public baths⠀⇛ Activists have said the increasing restrictions on women are an attempt to stop them from gathering to organise opposition to the Taliban’s rule. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Iran_charges_more_than_750_over_‘riots’,_issues first_death_sentence⠀⇛ Authorities have denied claims by rights groups abroad that about 15,000 people have been detained in the ensuing unrest. # ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ How_It_Feels_to_Visit_an_Apartheid_Country⠀⇛ Racial profiling in Israel is rampant. Abuse and invective are normal. This is the daily machinery of separating Jews from Arabs and justifying it in traditional colonial terms. # ⚓ Pro Publica ☛ Inside_an_Anti-Abortion_Meeting_With Tennessee’s_GOP_Lawmakers⠀⇛ When state Sen. Richard Briggs voted “yes” on Tennessee’s total abortion ban, he never thought it would actually go into effect. It was 2019, and Roe v. Wade was the law of the land. His vote seemed like a political statement, not a decision that would soon impact people’s lives. # ⚓ The Nation ☛ Democrats_Should_Use_This_Moment_to_Codify_Roe v._Wade⠀⇛ I guess “Roevember” really was a thing. Lots of factors played a role in the Republicans’ underperformance in the midterm elections, but it sure seems like the decision by conservative justices on the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade was a major one. The United States Senate might have been handed back to Democrats by Samuel Alito and his extremist ruling—signed, of course, by all five of the other conservatives. # ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ Inter-American_Commission_Hears_Landmark_Case of_Torture_and_Killing_by_US_Border_Patrol⠀⇛ Anastasio Hernández Rojas’s widow, Maria de Jesús Puga, testified that her “whole family, we have all been bearing this pain, 12 years, 12 years of pain and anguish not knowing why, why they killed my husband.” # ⚓ Common Dreams ☛ ‘Chilling’_Video_Footage_Shows_Asylum- Seeker_Being_Force-Fed_in_ICE_Detention⠀⇛ Human rights advocates on Tuesday renewed calls for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to stop force-feeding detained people and end its reliance on mass detention after The Intercept obtained and published footage of a hunger-striking asylum- seeker being force-fed in 2019. The video depicting nurses forcibly inserting a tube into the nose of Indian asylum-seeker Ajay Kumar in an El Paso, Texas detention center marks the first time the U.S. public has ever seen the federal government force-feed someone, according to The Intercept. # ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ College_Degrees_Help_Incarcerated_People_Take the_Next_Step_to_Freedom⠀⇛ Since 2013, the New Jersey Scholarship and Transformative Education in Prisons initiative, or NJ-STEP, has helped hundreds of individuals earn degrees.

In our many posts on the burger chain, we’ve discussed the company’s habit of what I’ll call trademark tourism. In posts that have focused primarily on its trademarks in Australia, we’ve detailed out how In-N-Out will conduct a popup restaurant in these countries that it otherwise has zero brick and mortar presence in, usually once a year or so, simply to satisfy the use-in-commerce requirements to retain its registered trademarks. This allows the company to lock up language and branding in a country it refuses to operate in generally, other than these bullshit events designed solely to allow it to keep these trademarks active and registered. # § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ VPN_Restrictions_Are_Problematic,_App Association_Tells_U.S._Government⠀⇛ The App Association is concerned about restrictive policies in countries such as Russia and China, that ban VPN usage. The industry organization shared its concerns with the US Trade Representative for the forthcoming Foreign Trade Barriers report. Recent actions regarding Iran already show that the U.S. is well aware of the value of VPNs. # ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Man_Used_Stolen_Netflix_Credentials to_Acquire_Content_For_Torrent_Site⠀⇛ A man who used hacked Netflix credentials to obtain content before uploading it to a torrent site has been sentenced in Denmark. The 34-year-old DanishBytes user was a staff member for two months, offering tech support to the site’s users. The stolen credentials allowed him to obtain content from legal streaming services using other people’s accounts. * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal⠀➾ # ⚓ Russell_up_a_win_🏁🇧🇷⠀⇛ I didn’t write about the Mexican GP. It wasn’t very exciting. Verstappen won, but got in a snit because a TV reporter said that Hamilton was “robbed” of the championship last year. I agree that he was robbed, nobody suggested that Verstappen stole it. Verstappen can be an arse sometimes. So we arrive in Brazil at a track that everyone likes. As usual, it rained and fastest in qualifying was Kevin Magnussen, who was delighted. His team mate, (son of) Schumacher, was slowest, so Haas had two amazing results. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

We tried some of the best screen recorders on Linux recently, but the results were all the same. Only when we switched from Wayland to Xorg (also called X11) on Ubuntu did the recorders start working properly. So if you are having issues with the display server and want to switch between Wayland and Xorg in Ubuntu, we have compiled an easy step- by-step guide for you here. We have included the steps to move to the Xorg windowing system in Ubuntu. # ⚓ H2S Media ☛ How_To_Install_InfluxDB_on_Ubuntu_22.04_Linux⠀⇛ InfluxDB is an open-source database developed by InfluxData that prioritizes maximum efficiency with limited complexity, unlike relational databases such as MySQL and MariaDB or structured databases such as Redis.

Here’s how you can install the awesome Unity desktop in Arch Linux. Unity desktop was originally developed by Canonical and introduced earlier for Netbook computers with Ubuntu 10.10. Then it became the default desktop environment for Ubuntu until Ubuntu 16.04. Eventually, it was dropped by Canonical and replaced by GNOME as the default Ubuntu desktop environment from Ubuntu 18.04 onwards. However, in the recent release of Ubuntu 22.10 onwards, Ubuntu Unity became the official flavour as a spin. However, installing Unity desktop in Arch Linux was not possible until now.

This means that you can easily remove a container if it’s no longer needed or you want to upgrade or reconfigure your system. And because Docker containers are lightweight and run in their own isolated environment, there’s no need to worry about having too much overhead on your system. So when it comes time to clean up after using Docker, it’s important to remove all of the containers first before starting the process of removing Docker itself. Otherwise, you may find yourself with a mess on your hands. # ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_phpMyAdmin_on_Linux_Mint_21_– idroot⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install phpMyAdmin on Linux Mint 21.

And whenever I needed to do any development work, I would use macOS. But now Linux has changed everything regarding what I think about operating systems and desktop environments. While Windows and macOS are both user-friendly systems, they don’t allow users to change things per their own requirements or interests. Both systems prevent me from making my own computer exactly how it should be. If you want a system that will allow your creativity to flourish, use Linux. It’s an open source operating system that is smooth, customizable, user-friendly, and, best of all – it’s free! You can tailor it specifically for your needs, whether you’re using it for work or leisure activities. o § Screenshots/Screencasts⠀➾ # ⚓ MakuluLinux_Next_Generation_Sneak_Peak_–_MakuluLinux⠀⇛ MakuluLinux Next Generation Sneak Peak, Enjoy the Video # ⚓ MakuluLinux_Next_Generation_Sneak_Peak_–_MakuluLinux⠀⇛ o § PCLinuxOS/Mageia/Mandriva/OpenMandriva Family⠀➾ # ⚓ PCLOS Official ☛ Tokodon_22.09_–_PCLinuxOS⠀⇛ Tokodon is a Mastodon client.

More long-term focused than most company product development efforts, corporate labs have a long history, going back to Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park laboratory in New Jersey. Perhaps most famous is Bell Labs’ invention of the transistor—although software folks may associate it more with Unix and the C programming language. But corporate laboratories have tended to be more associated with dominant firms that could afford to let large staffs work on very forward-looking and speculative research projects. After all, Bell Labs was born of the AT&T telephone monopoly. Corporate labs also aren’t known for playing with their counterparts elsewhere in industry. Even if their focus is long-term, they’re looking to profit from their IP eventually, which also means that their research is often rooted in technologies commercially relevant to their business. o ⚓ Video ☛ Build_Your_Own_Mastodon_Server_on_Debian_(Step_by_Step Server_Build_Guide)_–_Invidious⠀⇛ There’s way too much drama with Twitter nowadays, so the alternatives are looking more attractive than ever.

GNU lightning is a library to aid in making portable programs that compile assembly code at run time. Development: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lightning.git Download release: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/lightning/lightning- 2.2.0.tar.gz GNU Lightning 2.2.0 extends the 2.1.4 release adding support for Darwin aarch64, tested on Apple M1. Now there is the new --enable-devel-strong-type- checking configure option, not enabled by default, but code that works with that option will work on Apple M1. This release required significant rework as the Apple abi in aarch64 requires arguments to be truncated and zero/sign extended, unlike all other ports. Jit generation will understand it, and use the system ABI, avoiding double truncate and zero/sign extension. Due to the significant rework, the library major number was bumped, and the opportunity used to reorder the jit_code_t enumeration. o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Meta’s_Sapling_source-code_management_system_ [LWN.net] [Ed: Corbet ('Linux' Foundation) shilling and openwashing Facebook, a top sponsor of 'Linux' Foundation; the server side is proprietary]⠀⇛ At this point, only the client side of the system has been released; the company “hopes to” release the rest later. # ⚓ Get_ready_for_Google_Summer_of_Code_2023_with_GNOME!_– Felipe_Borges⠀⇛ Google has recently announced the 2023 edition of Google Summer of Code.

At least, the mobile phones of 35 journalists from six media outlets (El Faro, GatoEncerrado, La Prensa Grafica, Revista Digital Disruptiva and El Diario de Hoy) were infected by this spyware between July 2020 and November 2021. Amnesty International Security Lab reviewed the report and verified forensic evidence on the use of Pegasus spyware against Salvadoran journalists. Erika Guevara-Rosas, Americas director at Amnesty International, said that “the use of Pegasus for the surveillance of communications in El Salvador reveals a new threat to human rights in the country. The authorities must stop any efforts to restrict freedom of expression, and conduct a thorough and impartial investigation to identify those responsible.” But president Nayib Bukele’s government has denied its responsibility and showed not results or signs of a full investigation of this case of espionage. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ Russian_Software_Company_Pretending_to_Be American_–_Schneier_on_Security [Ed: CIA pretended to be Swiss company, so...]⠀⇛ Computer code developed by a company called Pushwoosh is in about 8,000 Apple and Google smartphone apps. The company pretends to be American when it is actually Russian. # ⚓ Reuters ☛ Exclusive:_Russian_software_disguised_as_American finds_its_way_into_U.S._Army,_CDC_apps [Ed: The problem is not that it is Russian; the problem is that it's proprietary and "app"]⠀⇛ Thousands of smartphone applications in Apple (AAPL.O) and Google’s (GOOGL.O) online stores contain computer code developed by a technology company, Pushwoosh, that presents itself as based in the United States, but is actually Russian, Reuters has found. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the United States’ main agency for fighting major health threats, said it had been deceived into believing Pushwoosh was based in the U.S. capital. After learning about its Russian roots from Reuters, it removed Pushwoosh software from seven public-facing apps, citing security concerns. o § Finance⠀➾ # ⚓ Why_I_donate_and_volunteer,_and_why_you_can_do_it_yourself. –_Bogomil_“Bogo”_Shopov⠀⇛ I am sharing a story about volunteering and supporting the things I believe in to show you that there is something you could do with your skills or financial assets to turn the world in a better direction. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ Deutsche Welle ☛ Twitter’s_sacking_of_content_moderators raises_concerns⠀⇛ Until last Saturday, it was Melissa Ingle’s job to help keep Twitter safe. As a member of the company’s “civic integrity” team, the data scientist monitored the platform for political misinformation about elections from Brazil to the US, and she wrote algorithms to automatically detect similar content. “We wanted to make sure Twitter was a healthy platform,” Ingle told DW. Then, on November 12, a notification popped up on her phone, telling her she no longer had access to her work emails. When she realized that she had also been logged out of her Slack account, the 48- year-old knew she had been fired. She wasn’t alone. Thousands of other contract workers had their contracts terminated last weekend, in addition to about 3,700 employees Twitter had already fired earlier this month. “The cuts didn’t really seem to be targeted,” Ingle told DW. “It seems to be huge swaths of people who were just fired.” o § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ # ⚓ Public Knowledge ☛ Should_Algorithms_Be_Regulated?_Part_3: Evaluating_Alternative_Frameworks_for_Regulating_Algorithms_– Public_Knowledge⠀⇛ This is the third in a series of blog posts from Public Knowledge examining the public policy implications of algorithmic decision-making. A first post clarified what algorithms are and aren’t and identified some basic principles for attempting to regulate algorithmic decision-making, especially as it relates to content distribution. The second post cataloged the harms that can arise from algorithmic decision-making, including (1) harms to safety and well-being; (2) harms to economic justice; and (3) harms to democratic participation. (We’ve also written in other forums about the harmful consequences of unregulated, unproven AI.) In this post and the accompanying policy framework, we seek to assess various theories of change and related policy frameworks for creating accountability for algorithmic decision-making. We describe each approach’s drawbacks and benefits and put forward Public Knowledge’s perspective. Spoiler alert: There is no single or simple solution for the complex questions our exploration has raised. As you’ll see in our framework, there are several potential approaches for trying to mitigate the myriad harms algorithmic decision- making about content can create through direct regulation of algorithms. But most of them face substantial hurdles, particularly those that entail or even approach the regulation of user-generated content – most of which is protected speech. The hurdles include constitutional challenges, patterns of Supreme Court jurisprudence, or narrow or ambiguous definitions that would compound the challenges of content moderation for both platforms and users. As a Federal Trade Commission report on combating online harms noted, “governments, platforms, and others must exercise great caution” and focus attention on a broad array of considerations before turning to regulation to mitigate online harms. # ⚓ Public Knowledge ☛ Alternative_Frameworks_for_Algorithmic Accountability_–_Public_Knowledge⠀⇛ This framework was created to accompany the third post in our “Should Algorithms Be Regulated?” series examining the public policy implications of algorithmic decision-making. o § Monopolies⠀➾ # ⚓ Public Knowledge ☛ Public_Knowledge_Joins_45_Groups_Urging Congress_To_Rein_in_Big_Tech_by_Passing_Popular_Bipartisan Antitrust_Bills [Ed: This organisation had the audacity to publish this while having Microsoft inside its Board; They even use Microsoft's lobbying term "Big Tech"]⠀⇛ Today, Public Knowledge joined 45 public interest and civil society groups in a letter urging Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and Leader Kevin McCarthy (R- CA) to pass the “American Innovation and Choice Online Act” and “Open App Markets Act” to rein in Big Tech. The groups call on Congress to pass these widely supported, bipartisan antitrust bills this year before the current congressional session closes. [...] “The bills are also incredibly popular with the American people and people around the world who depend on digital platforms. Poll after poll has shown the public [is] fed up with Big Tech’s unchecked power and eager to support members getting tough with them. In a recent poll, 77 percent of voters agreed Big Tech was too powerful and 65 percent were more likely to support their representative [for voting] for greater Big Tech regulation. “As history writes the final chapters of the 117th Congress, you face a consequential choice on how it concludes. Passing the American Innovation and Choice Online Act and the Open App Markets Act would mark a triumphant, bipartisan and politically popular win. The choice is yours.” * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal⠀➾ # ⚓ Dungeon_Crawling_Speed,_explained⠀⇛ It can sometimes be weird or unintuitive how time passes in the dungeon so let’s break it down in simple terms, as a complement to the terse DM reference version. # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_UEILQTA_Wordo:_RAINS⠀⇛ # ⚓ It’s_the_Inside_That_Matters⠀⇛ And expert sources have confirmed that I’m great inside. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.
