SUEPO mentioned_it yesterday, citing this_recent_article_in_English while publishing an English translation (from French in a_left-leaning_publisher), which we're reproducing below: (it is deficient and partly automated) EUROPE INQUIRY § Intellectual property: the European agency out of control⠀➾ Opaque budget management, weak governance, conflicts of interest, questionable recruitment: the European Intellectual Property Office, which handles hundreds of millions of euros, has come in for a lot of criticism. So much so that complaints have been made to the European Anti-Fraud Office, as seen by Mediapart. Cédric Vallet - 2 January 2024 at 11:42am Ire is growing within the European Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO). According to According to information from Mediapart, a former employee has lodged a complaint with the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) alleging "fraud, corruption, harassment and favouritism". He claims to be relying on the testimonies of more than a dozen of his former colleagues. We have been able to contact several of them, but at this stage they prefer to remain anonymous. The text describes an inner circle where the allocation of positions The complaint describes the "management" process as a rigged game. According to the complaint, expressing dissatisfaction had become "impossible" within the agency, where a climate of "terror" reigned. A letter dated 17 March 2023 from Union pour l'unité, a union representing the staff of the institutions, consulted by Mediapart, supports this view. It refers to a "fear of express themselves" within the teams. The complaint addressed to Olaf focuses on a recent event: the election of the Executive Director of Ouepi, the Portuguese João Negrão. O n 13 July 2023, João Negrão received a large majority of nineteen votes against eight for the French-backed candidate, Étienne Sanz. De Acedo. According to the text sent to Olaf, the election was marred by "fraud". For his part, Étienne Sanz De Acedo denounced "irregularities". So what is really going on in Alicante, the Spanish headquarters of this European agency? Governance of the Ouepi: the black box With its 1,200 employees and colossal budget, EUIPO, a decentralised, self-financing agency, is a magnet for interest. Like all European Union (EU) agencies, the EPO implements European policies, but its budget makes it the largest. The registration of trademarks, designs or geographical indications (such as protected designations of origin) by companies and individuals is subject to a fee, the revenue from which is incorporated into the EUIPO budget. The protection of intellectual property rights enabled the agency to present a budget of 455 million euros last year. From a distance, EUIPO is an idyllic agency. A recent article in Politico described glitzy offices with sea views and a taste for comfort, where canteen meals are cooked by local chefs. Up close, the management of the agency is an EU black box. In a recent report, the European Court of Auditors deplored the "deficiencies of the governance arrangements". Those who determine the direction of the Ouepi are brought together in the Board of Directors. This body operates in a vacuum, or almost. It is made up of the 27 national intellectual property offices, two members of the European Commission and a representative of the European Parliament. The members of the Administrative Board are largely the same as those on the Budget Committee. And therein lies the rub. It is also this committee that grants the "budget discharge", i.e. the procedure for the annual control of the expenditure of the European institutions, which is normally carried out by the European Parliament. This makes it possible to closing the financial year but, in this case, the people being audited are also the auditors. If discharge is not granted, in the event of mismanagement, Parliament can force the institution to rectify the anomalies. In the case of EUIPO, MEPs have no budgetary control role. According to the European Court of Auditors, Parliament should be responsible for discharge. Without external control, abuses are possible. Are they effective? Suspicions of misappropriated votes At the heart of the grievances expressed in the complaint sent to Olaf are the recruitment procedures. The complaint refers to "exchanges of top management positions in exchange for votes". For years, members of the Board of Directors (BD) of Ouepi, who sit on a voluntary basis on behalf of their national intellectual property office, have then been hired in Alicante. The salaries at EPO are more than attractive. At the start of their mandate, deputy directors are paid between €16,500 and €18,700 per month. The recruitment of Board members is viewed with suspicion by the staff, as these same members vote for the agency's three top jobs, the Executive Director, his deputy and the Chairman of the Boards of Appeal. The Council of the EU must then take a decision, but it does so on the basis of a prior vote and a pre-selection of the directors of the EUIPO. The members of the Board therefore vote for directors who then have the power to hire them. This mix of genres is causing tension within the agency. In 2019, a letter sent by the staff committee to the management of EUIPO, consulted by Mediapart, called for "legal guarantees against conflict" of interest" be put in place. Their proposal, hitherto ignored, was to make it impossible to hire a member of the board of directors or the budget committee for at least two years after holding a position on these governance bodies. Several cases are highlighted in the complaint sent to Olaf. Some have been the subject of internal challenges by staff representatives. One example: Sandris Laganovskis sat on the Board of Directors of the EUIPO until 2021 as a representative of the Latvian Office. He was then recruited as Director of Cooperation and Legal Affairs, replacing João Negrão who had just been promoted. Negrão had won his new post, Chairman of the Boards of Appeal, thanks to the support of a pre-selection committee that included... Sandris Laganovskis. In a March 2023 e-mail from an attaché at the Polish embassy in the Netherlands, consulted by Mediapart, we read that Poland had "decided to appoint" Edyta Demby- Siwek to the position of deputy director of the EUIPO. However, the creation of this post was not announced until six months later. The EPO, contacted by Mediapart, said that no post had been created for Edyta Demby-Siwek. This is a "promise", given that, ultimately, it is the Council of the EU that has the final say. A final say based on a pre-selection and ranking of directors... The contested rise of João Negrão It is in this context that João Negrão's name emerges. After working at the Portuguese Intellectual Property Office, he joined the EPO in 2010 as chief of staff to the director, another Portuguese, António Campinos. Campinos left EUIPO in 2018 to become President of the powerful European Patent Office (EPO), an international organisation with 38 member states that grants "European patents", thereby protecting inventions and companies' technical processes (while Ouepi protects a company's external image, brand names and the design of certain products). The members of the EPPO Board of Directors also sit on the EPO Board of Directors. João Negrão's rise within Ouepi has been rapid. In 2011, he became Director of Legal Affairs and International Cooperation. It was in this capacity that in 2015 he launched the "cooperation funds", which enable part of the EPO budget to be paid back to the national offices to launch projects such as the maintenance of software for the registration of trademarks and designs. In theory. In practice, the key to distributing this money is guarded like an industrial secret: the Cour des Comptes has mentioned "weaknesses" in the allocation of these sums and "inequalities" between Member States. Opacity reigns. In 2023, 34 million euros were distributed under this heading. These are vital sums for the offices of small states. On the Board of Directors, one seat equals one vote. In 2021, João Negrão continued his progress and became the new Chairman of the Boards of Appeal. His selection is fraught with uncertainty. When such a recruitment is made, the Board of Directors must, according to European regulations, send a "list of candidates" - the plural is important - to the Council of the European Union, which endorses the final choice. In 2020, the directors did submit such a list, on the basis of internal procedural rules drawn up by João Negrão's staff. But it was a list made up of a single candidate: João Negrão. This practice is the subject of debate. EUIPO, contacted by Mediapart, believes that everything took place according to the rules. However, a confidential memo from the European Parliament's legal service dated 28 September 2020, which Mediapart was able to obtain, questions the legality of this procedure. This rule, it says, "allows or facilitates the selection of a single candidate [...] and raises concerns about its legality", because such a selection This "limits the Council's decision-making power". The controversial interpretation of the rules by the Board of Directors was again evident in the ousting of the last Executive Director, Belgian Christian Archambeau. In June 2022, Archambeau announced his intention to reappoint himself for a further five years. On 22 November, the Board of Directors decided, without explanation, not to renew his mandate despite a positive internal evaluation. A few days later, the recruitment procedure for his replacement was launched, paving the way for João Negrão. The EU's Council of Ministers was notified, but no one asked for its opinion, even though it was the competent authority. In the complaint drafted by Christian Archambeau's lawyers, consulted by Mediapart, they claim that the Board of Directors "exceeded its powers". The secretariat of the Council of the EU, unable to ignore the uproar caused by this "coup", ended up asking, in In March, he was asked to submit the evaluation of the former director so that a formal decision could be taken by the Board. Finally, in May 2023, the ministers ratified the non-extension of Christian Archambeau's term of office, ready to take the matter to court. Travel by the bucketload Meanwhile, João Negrão's campaign had already taken off. Literally. In 2022, the number of missions abroad by the "Boards of Appeal" department, of which João Negrão was chairman, exploded in an unprecedented way. With 198 missions, his department became by far the largest in terms of trips abroad, most often to national offices. By way of comparison, this same department only travelled 75 times in 2019 and 79 times in 2018. For the complainant to Olaf, these missions were merely a "pretext" for the campaign to elect the director. At the European Parliament on 27 June, Danish Renew MEP Karen Melchior asked João Negrão whether he had managed to keep his job and his campaign separate. The aspiring director claimed to be taking days off and paying for his campaign out of his own pocket. Yet it seems tricky to keep a campaign and visits to members of the Administrative Council, who are also voters to be persuaded, separate. On 13 October 2022, during a meeting in Munich, where the offices of the European Patent Office are located, Irene Mylona- Chrysostomou, Director of the Cypriot Office, posted a photo of a convivial meal. It shows António Campinos, President of the EPO, João Negrão and several heads of national patent offices - from Cyprus, Poland, Ireland, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Austria and Slovenia - all countries that subsequently voted in favour of the Portuguese. The fact that this meal was being held in Munich, where the EPO has its headquarters, is no coincidence. In insider circles, there were rumours of interference in the election of António Campinos, an old friend of João Negrão. The French government seemed to express doubts. In a letter to António Campinos dated 27 March 2023, the French Minister for the Economy, Bruno Le Maire, referred to an "event" organised by the EPO in Lisbon, in May 2023. In view of this event, which "brings together all the directors of industrial property offices, a week before they are due to vote on candidates for the post of Executive Director [...] of WIPO, the date chosen does not appear to be appropriate". According to Ouepi, there have been no irregularities in any of João Negrão's electoral victories. "None has ever been annulled by the Court of Justice". When questioned by Mediapart, the European Commission was not very forthcoming. A spokeswoman told us that, following the reports from the Court of Auditors, an evaluation of Ouepi will be launched. For the rest, the guardian of the Treaties says "no comment". Cédric Vallet If you have any information to send us, you can contact us at enquete@mediapart.fr.

Will something actually happen or be done towards tackling the_illegal and_unconstitutional_UPC? What about the EPO? It routinely_violates_the_EPC, which_has_turned_50. It seems clear that EPO corruption has crossed over to the EU, both via the UPC and the EUIPO. The crimes of Benoît_Battistelli and António_Campinos serve to discredit the EU - a project that we generally do support. If the EU collapses due to mass departure (The Netherlands might be next after Britain), we should at least consider the possibility that EPO corruption played a role. Some role. █ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣉⣥⠍⠛⣿⣿⠠⠬⢀⠈⠄⢹⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠸⠛⠁⠀⢘⣿⠟⠀⡄⢸⡀⢠⢸⣿⣿⠃⠈⢿⣿⡿⠁⢸⣿⣯⡉⠉⣉⢉⣯⡍⢉⣉⣉⠙⠻⣿⣍⠉⣽⣿⣿⠏⠹⣿⣿⣯⠉⢉⡉⠙⣿⣿⠋⢻⣿⣿⣍⠉⣉⡉⠻⡏⣉⡉⠉⣉⡉⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⠍⠻⠇⠀⠤⠐⠀⠀⠀⠄⡇⠀⠀⠸⢸⣿⣿⠀⡄⠘⡿⠁⡄⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠛⢻⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣇⠀⢻⣿⠀⣿⣿⡟⢰⡀⠹⣿⣿⠀⠸⠇⣀⣿⠃⣀⠀⢿⣿⡇⠀⠿⠃⣰⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⡇⠀⢀⣁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠧⠴⠤⠄⢸⣿⡟⢀⣿⡄⠀⣼⣧⠀⢻⣿⠃⠀⢿⠞⣿⡇⠈⣿⡿⠇⢀⣿⡿⠀⣿⡿⢀⣤⣤⠀⢻⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⠏⢠⣤⡄⠈⢿⡏⠀⣶⡄⠙⢿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡻⠿⠄⠀⠠⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠡⠷⢛⣿⣶⣶⣾⣷⣾⣿⣿⣶⣦⣿⣴⣶⣶⣶⣿⣴⣶⣤⣴⣾⣿⣿⣶⣶⣴⣴⣶⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣾⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣴⣿⣶⣶⣾⣶⣶⣴⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⡿⠷⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠀⠀⠤⠶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⠿⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 434 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.techrights.org/n/2024/01/04/Guest_Article_Falsehoods_From_Phoronix_and_DistroWatch.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2024/01/04/Guest_Article_Falsehoods_From_Phoronix_and_DistroWatch.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Guest Article: Falsehoods From Phoronix and DistroWatch⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 04, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Text_proverb_better_open_enemy_than_a_false_friend_on_white⦈ Anonymous guest post Microsoft Larabel continues with the FAKE NEWS and MISINFORMATION. He wrote today a post named "Linux Mint 21.3 EDGE Moving To Linux 6.2 Due To Hardware Issues" [1] based on Linux Mint's December 2023 blog post [2]. In fact, Linux Mint devs only informed users that the upcoming Linux Mint 21.3 release will have an EDGE ISO powered by THE SAME Linux 6.2 kernel as the Linux Mint 21.2 EDGE ISO released in October 2023 [3]. So, NOT NEWS. The same fake news is also spread by DistroWatch, entitled "Mint upgrades kernel for its Edge media" [4]. Again, Mint [devs] didn't upgrade anything on the EDGE ISO, it's the same Linux 6.2 kernel (from the upstream Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS release) as in the current Linux Mint 21.2 release. This is dangerous and misinformation for users because more Linux blogs will cover this fake news in the coming days based on the "reporting" from Phoronix and DistroWatch. █ _____ [1]

This meme relates to what_we've_just_(re)published. It also alludes to António (bottom of the meme) calling himself "the f***ing president" in front of his staff. How do such incompetent people rise to the top of Europe's largest institutions and who will pay the price?

Jeffrey Epstein and His Frequent Flyer Bill Gates⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 04, 2024 THIS is more of the same, but it needs to be said anyway. BillBC (BBC) is distracting_from_its_sponsor, Bill Gates. Divert the outrage, right? Front page/leading story for this morning is shown below. BillBC, which has its fair share of scandals like hiring high-profile pedophiles who literally raped dead kids (employees knew but were threatened not to speak about it except posthumously), doesn't forget who the boss is. The BillBC does not name Gates anywhere in its coverage: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Bill Gates not in BillPR⦈ BillPR (N.-P.R. - as in Public Relations), also bribed by Bill Gates, is only naming Andrew and the other Bill in its_coverage ("Powerful men are named in court records with ties to Jeffrey Epstein : NPR") Hey, BillPR. You forgot to add a disclosure of your conflict of interest in this article. There_are_photos_of_Bill_Gates_with_the_girls_of_Maxwell_and Epstein, their sexually-abused young girls. Who do the oligarchs-bribed journalists cover? Just check; there are more examples of the same. They focus on the guy who is no longer a politician and a man who can never become king. Bill Gates is only mentioned in the 'pet publication' of his when he has something to say ("Bill Gates Says [something that sounds witty but he's not knowledgeable in... just a financial shareholder of]") Oh, hi. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Bill Gates not in BillPR⦈ Bill Gates not in BillPR. Gates prefers not to exist in it right now. BillBC shall also respect his wishes. It pays off to bribe_the_media. Even national broadcasters that claim to be serving taxpayers in the UK and US. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Journalism’s Gates keepers⦈ I can meanwhile see lots of plagiarism (webspam sites, chatbot-generates sites) spewing out "Bill Gates Says" pieces that aren't real articles and aren't new/ s. Saturate, diffuse. Protect the master. Coming soon: our take on this media circus of Gates and his rich friends. We'll cover that in video form because a lot needs to be said. █ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Practice, Plus Why They're Made Permissible in the First Place⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 04, 2024 Very_corrupt_system_that_rewards_maximisation_of_monopolies (because those are being sold for money) 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Georg Weber caricature⦈ This month we'll publish many new posts about the EPO, seeing that the subject has returned to the media [1, 2] after years of grotesque media apathy (online media is dying; does investigative journalism still exist at all?), resulting in an unaware and uncaring public. "There's a HUGE barrier to raising any topics related to ICT in the general population," an associate explains. "It often seems easier to talk about any other topic no matter how controversial than to raise the topic of technology policy. It comes across as something which people have been made frightened to even consider talking about." Patent policy is a very important cornerstone of economic policies and realities. Why does the public not get told about how patents truly work? There were a couple of software patent articles in yesterday's batch. One of them is a couple_of_years_old and speaks of "Plagiarism as a patent amplifier". Now that plagiarism has a new name (even acronym, "G.A.I", if "advanced AI" isn't wishy-washy enough) it might be worth revisiting the story. "Reportedly," it says, "after announcing its experiment, Google was contacted by Jintai Ding, who informed Google that he had a patent covering New Hope and asked them for money."" "If that's in fact what happened, then suddenly it makes sense that Google's enthusiasm for running the experiment would have rapidly disappeared. Imagine the effect of email saying "A patent holder is asking us for money because of your CECPQ1 experiment" from one of Google's patent lawyers to the managers at Google in charge of TLS." Software patents were mentioned a lot in the media last month only because of Apple and a risk of embargo (thanks, ITC). Other than that, any media coverage about patents or the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is very, very scarce. 18 years ago there was so much of it that I could not feasibly keep track and many articles were real journalism, not some law firm posting shameless self-promotion in "news" clothing (in other words, advertising, not journalism). █ ⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⡿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣄⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⣝⠐⠒⢲⠹⢻⡿⠻⢿⣟⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣔⣣⣵⣿⣷⡬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢟⣵⢆⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⢛⠁⣼⣿⣿⣿⣯⣟⣻⣿⣛⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢟⠛⢻⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠘⢁⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣫⣤⣼⣤⢻⣿⣿⣿⣭⣛⣛⠛⠛⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⢇⣛⣠⣬⣭⣵⣖⠆⠀⣀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣵⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣱⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⢯⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠿⠮⣥⣍⢙⠛⢿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣟⣛⣻⡟⠿⢛⣫⣥⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿⡏⠛⢿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡜⠟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣽⣳⢻⡿⣟⣿⢣⡍⡍⣭⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⡇⠀⠈⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣯⣵⣷⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⢸⣿⡇⠀⢀⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡌⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⠁⠀⣸⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢮⡛⠙⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣋⢋⣵⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠉⠉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⡿⠀⣰⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⠉⢻⡇⠈⣿⣿⡏⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⡎⢱⠐⣱⣶⣦⣭⣽⣿⣟⣛⣛⣛⣻⣯⣿⣾⣿⢏⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠛⠿⡿⠛⠀⠻⠃⣰⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⠀⠻⠇⠈⠁⠀⠈⠉⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣑⠤⣚⡌⣿⣿⣯⣝⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣫⣭⣸⣿⡿⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⢉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡗⠉⠉⠑⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣟⣛⣛⣁⠀⠀⠸⡿⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠘⠁⢀⡿⠁⢠⣾⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⢠⢤⣶⣚⣻⢿⣯⣭⣭⡿⣟⣽⣿⣿⢿⡇⠀⠀⣰⠋⠁⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⠿⠆⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠘⠛⢻⣿⣿⣶⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⢸⢩⣟⡻⢿⣿⣾⣝⡷⣾⣿⢟⣯⣾⣿⠁⢀⡼⠁⠀⢀⣴⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠉⠙⣿⣿⣷⣦⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⢸⢸⣿⠋⠑⠋⢙⡿⣿⣿⣽⣻⣿⣿⡇⠀⡼⠁⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⡟⠛⠿⠿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠚⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣼⣿⣿⡿⠁⢸⡞⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠉⢉⣛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢾⣿⡿⠟⠛⠿⣷⣦⣤⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⢸⡿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠉⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠉⢤⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣭⣥⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⢿⣿⣿⡿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠃ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠼⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1374 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊𝐒 ═════════════════════════════════════════════╕ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Links 04/01/2024: COVID-19 Resurgence and Patent Spam⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 04, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇COVID-19_Concept_Brighter⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Leftovers o Science o Hardware o Health/Nutrition/Agriculture o Security # Privacy/Surveillance o Defence/Aggression o Environment # Energy/Transportation # Wildlife/Nature o Finance o AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics o Censorship/Free_Speech o Civil_Rights/Policing o Internet_Policy/Net_Neutrality o Monopolies/Monopsonies # Patents # Trademarks # Copyrights # Gemini*_and_Gopher # Personal/Opinions # Politics_and_World_Events # Technology_and_Free_Software # Programming * § Leftovers⠀➾ o ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Tetris_was_finally_beaten_after_34_years,_game kill_screen_pops_up_at_Level_157_—_hypertapping_and_rolling_were key_techniques⠀⇛ Willis, AKA Blue Scuti, has become the first human to play Tetris NES (NTSC) to its killscreen. He was also the first to reach Level 157, culminating in the 'biggest achievement in the 34-year history of the pro classic Tetris scene.' o ⚓ Kev Quirk ☛ One_Month_Without⠀⇛ Last night I read Manu's post, "Yet_another_year_of living_without" where he talks about giving stuff up for an entire year. I've decided to do something similar. In his post, Manu mentions a previous challenge where he gave up different things for a month at a time. That's what I think I'm going to do throughout 2024. I've actually thought about this in the past. So much so, that I registered the domain onemonthwithout.com with the plan of starting a separate blog about it. True to form, the domain wasted away, never used, like so many of my other "bright" ideas. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ What_to_Know_About_the_Science_of Reading⠀⇛ An effort to overhaul how children learn to read, known as the science of reading movement, is sweeping the country. Here’s where it stands. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ NASA_Successfully_Tests_Revolutionary Rocket_That_Could_Get_Us_to_Mars_Faster⠀⇛ Count down to lift-off. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Golden_Orb_Found_at_Bottom_of_The_Ocean Mystifies_Scientists⠀⇛ # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Chemical_Produced_by_Gut_Microbes_Seems_to Prevent_Obesity_in_Mice⠀⇛ But does it work in people? o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ The Next Platform ☛ With_“Big_Chip,”_China_Lays_Out Aspirations_For_Waferscale⠀⇛ The end of Moore’s Law – the real Moore’s Law where transistors get cheaper and faster with every process shrink – is making chip makers crazy. # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ China’s_BYD_overtakes_Tesla_as_top all-electric_vehicle_maker⠀⇛ US car maker Tesla has lost its crown for most sales of all-electric vehicles to Chinese firm BYD, which has capitalized on Beijing’s strong government support for the burgeoning sector. # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ Hong_Kong_seizes_electronic_goods worth_an_estimated_HK$1.5m_in_anti-smuggling_border operation⠀⇛ Hong Kong Customs have seized goods worth an estimated HK$1.5 million in a suspected smuggling case at the city’s border with mainland China. An inbound lorry with a declared cargo of Bluetooth headsets and transformers was intercepted at the Lok Ma Chau Control Point on Tuesday. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Pinball_With_No_Computers⠀⇛ Pinball machines were the video games of their day. Back when they were king, there were no microcontrollers — everything was electromechanical. We know from experience that fixing these was difficult but we imagine that designing complex play behavior with a bunch of motors, relays, clutches, contacts, and more would have been excruciatingly difficult. [Technology Connections] has several videos about an old Aztec machine and he promises more to come. You can watch the first two below. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Radxa_X2L_defective_chip_maker_Intel_Celeron J4125_SBC_goes_for_as_low_as_$39⠀⇛ Radxa X2L is an inexpensive defective chip maker Intel Celeron J4125 Gemini Lake Refresh single board computer (SBC) that ships with 2GB to 8GB RAM, an M.2 socket for SSD storage, another M.2 socket for a wireless module, and offers a range of ports such as dual HDMI, gigabit Ethernet, four USB port, and a 40-pin GPIO header. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ An_Extensive_Walkthrough_On_Building_Your_Own KSP_Controller⠀⇛ Having a game-tailored controller is a level-up in more ways than one, letting you perform in-game actions quickly and intuitively, instead of trying to map your actions to a clunky combination of keyboard and mouse movements. [abzman] took the Pelco KBD300A, a DVR-intended camera controller panel with a joystick, reverse-engineered it, and then rebuilt it into a Kerbal Space Program controller. What’s more, he documented every detail along the way! o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ France24 ☛ Doctors_in_England_launch_longest_strike_in_NHS history⠀⇛ Hospital doctors in England on Wednesday began their longest consecutive strike in the seven- decade history of Britain's National Health Service (NHS). # ⚓ teleSUR ☛ Junior_Doctors_in_England_Start_Six-Day Strike⠀⇛ They seek a 26 percent salary increase to compensate for the loss of purchasing power since 2008. # ⚓ Latvia ☛ Long-awaited_hospice_care_at_home_starts_working in_Latvia⠀⇛ Palliative care mobile team service at the patient's residence is being provided starting this year, Latvian Radio reported January 3. # ⚓ Latvia ☛ Latvian_hospitals_see_frostbite_cases_in_recent days⠀⇛ The past few days have brought a great cold to Latvia. It can pose health risks, especially for older people, infants, and the homeless. People have come to hospitals with frostbite, even before the New Year, Sergejs Smirnovs, head of the burns center at Riga East Clinical University Hospital (RAKUS), told Latvian Radio January 3. # ⚓ teleSUR ☛ Ethiopia:_+_14,000_Dengue_Fever_Cases_Recorded, WHO⠀⇛ "Malaria and dengue outbreaks are a major concern during the rainy season, while internal displacement of people worsens the public health crisis due to overcrowded and unsanitary living conditions." # ⚓ JURIST ☛ Pakistan_anti-corruption_agency_investigating_PTI leader_for_breach_of_merit-based_system⠀⇛ Pakistan’s Punjab Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACEP) initiated legal proceedings on Tuesday against former Health Minister Dr. Yasmin Rashid and her daughter. ACEP accused them of breaching the merit system and abusing their authority. # ⚓ Hong Kong Free Press ☛ 2.8%_of_Hong_Kong_students_‘planned’ suicide_in_last_school_year,_gov’t_says⠀⇛ A total of 2.8 per cent of Hong Kong students considered suicide in the 2022-23 school year, an assessment conducted by the Department of Health has found, also noting an increase in referrals for psychosocial and behavioural problems. # ⚓ NYPost ☛ Mask_mandates_back_at_NYC-run_hospitals_as_COVID and_flu_cases_rise⠀⇛ “As we’ve seen an increase in COVID, flu, and RSV, our priority is to protect our patients, staff, and the community,” a NYCH+H spokesperson told The Post Wednesday. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Covid_Has_Resurged,_but_Scientists_See_a Diminished_Threat⠀⇛ Hospitalizations have ticked upward, and there are at least 1,200 Covid-related deaths each week. Americans should mask more often, and vaccination rates remain too low, experts say. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Florida_Health_Official_Calls_for_Halt_to Covid_Vaccines⠀⇛ Federal health officials and other experts have repeatedly sought to counter erroneous comments about the vaccines by Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Florida’s surgeon general. o § Security⠀➾ # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Techdirt ☛ India’s_Government_Goes_After_Apple_For Notifying_Journalists,_Dissidents_Of_Phone_Hacking Attempts⠀⇛ Israeli malware developer NSO Group found itself the subject of international headlines a couple of years ago. Not the good kind either. A leaked document apparently showed who was being targeted by the company’s cell phone exploits — a long, disturbing list that contained journalists, lawyers, activists, dissidents, religious leaders, and plenty of politicians. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Dismissals_Point_to_Pooh-tin_Jinping’s Quiet_Shake-Up_of_China’s_Military⠀⇛ The purge of several commanders from China’s legislature was the latest sign of widening investigations focused on the sensitive arms sector, experts say. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Taiwan_will_publish_analysis_of_China's alleged_election_interference_post_vote⠀⇛ Taiwan is documenting its experiences with China's alleged attempts to interfere in elections next week and will publish its analysis soon after the vote. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Myanmar_shadow_govt_voices_support_for_China’s_Taiwan policy⠀⇛ Analysts say the move is symbolic and meant to curry favor with Beijing. # ⚓ Atlantic Council ☛ Why_Beijing’s_latest_pre-election attempt_to_coerce_Taiwanese_voters_could_backfire⠀⇛ China recently said that it would end preferential tariff terms for some Taiwanese chemical exports. But the move may drive some Taiwanese voters away from the direction Beijing wants. # ⚓ Vice Media Group ☛ Mysterious_Section_of_the_Great_Wall_of China_Isn't_What_We_Thought,_Study_Reveals⠀⇛ The Mongolian Arc, an under-studied section of the Great Wall in modern-day Mongolia, wasn't a defensive structure. Its true nature remains enigmatic. # ⚓ RFA ☛ China’s_3rd_aircraft_carrier_nears_sea_trials⠀⇛ New TV footage shows the Fujian with fitted electromagnetic catapults in preparation for sea trial. # ⚓ RFA ☛ No_new_monks_allowed_at_Buddhist_monastery_in_Tibet⠀⇛ The move reflects China’s tightening grip on religious activities, sources say. # ⚓ RFA ☛ Named_and_shamed_for_‘lying_flat’⠀⇛ Guangdong employees targeted in a move that could be aimed at those getting paid without turning up for work. # ⚓ RFA ☛ China_suspends_news_anchor_for_calling_Japan_quake 'retribution'⠀⇛ Xiao Chenghao is under investigation over 'inappropriate comments' posted to a personal social control media account. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Attack_on_Opposition_Leader_Raises_Alarms in_Divided_South_Korea⠀⇛ The attack on Lee Jae-myung, who narrowly lost the 2022 presidential vote, came amid a deepening political divide and increasingly extreme discourse in South Korea. # ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ South_Korea_opposition_leader_leaves ICU_after_knife_attack:_Surgeon⠀⇛ South Korea's opposition Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung was out of intensive care and was recovering from surgery to repair a major vein that was sliced in a knife attack two days ago, a surgeon who operated on him said on Thursday. # ⚓ RFA ☛ N_Korea_vows_military_strength_expansion_in_message to_S_Korean_president⠀⇛ The move signals a strong response to any future extended deterrence against Pyongyang, expert says. # ⚓ RFA ☛ ‘Whatever_the_party_orders,_we_are_screwed!’⠀⇛ Slight alteration in propaganda slogan insults North Korean leadership, sparking big investigation. # ⚓ RFA ☛ S_Korean_spy_agency_sees_Kim_Jong_Un’s_daughter_as ‘probable_successor’⠀⇛ Kim Ju Ae, born in 2013, gained attention in Nov 2022, following her first public appearance with her father. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Thursday_Briefing:_Blasts_in_Iran_Kill Dozens⠀⇛ Plus, China shakes up its military. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Iran_blames_Israel,_US_for_deadly_twin_blasts near_grave_of_Guards_general_Soleimani⠀⇛ Iran blamed Israel and the United States on Wednesday for twin bomb blasts that killed at least 95 people in the country's south, ripping through a crowd commemorating Revolutionary Guards general Qasem Soleimani four years after his death in a US strike. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ Iran_Vows_Response_After_Explosions_Kill_Nearly_100 During_Ceremony_For_Slain_General⠀⇛ At least 95 people died and more than 200 others were injured in two explosions set off during commemorations of the fourth anniversary of the death of Qasem Soleimani, a former commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps' elite Quds Force killed in January 2020 in an air strike by U.S. forces near Baghdad. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Over_100_Killed_in_Iran_Blasts_at_Qassim Suleimani_Memorial⠀⇛ No one claimed responsibility for the bombing at a memorial for Qassim Suleimani, the top commander killed by a U.S. drone strike four years ago. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Dozens_killed_in_blasts_at_ceremony_for_slain Iranian_general_Soleimani⠀⇛ Two explosions minutes apart Wednesday in Iran targeted a commemoration for slain general Qassem Soleimani, killing at least 95 people and wounding more than 211, according to Iranian officials.

As in years past, the exam was worth less than half of the final grade because the students did other substantial work during the semester, including a major moot court competition.   Students were permitted access to their book/notes/internet, but were barred communications with another human during the exam. This year’s exam is very loosely based upon an interesting patent monopoly that I found associated with the Tow Whee product created by Eric Landis.  See US11167164, US11731470, and US11724148.  But, the events described are entirely my creation. # ⚓ JUVE ☛ Video:_JUVE_Patent’s_UK_ranking_2024 [Ed: Juve is a marketing SPAM site with fake endorsements, fake news, and promotion of criminal activities in Europe (for a fee); don't pay attention to such "ranking" SPAM]⠀⇛ In JUVE Patent’s UK ranking 2024, co-editor Mathieu Klos and journalist [sic] Amy Sandys present the latest developments in the UK patent monopoly market. # ⚓ JUVE ☛ Top_filing_and_litigation_firms_in_the_UK_2024 [Ed: More SPAM for JUVE; a decade ago it did journalism, now it's spamming the Web for its clients]⠀⇛ # ⚓ JUVE ☛ Top_UK_patent_monopoly_filing_firms_2024 [Ed: How many of these firms pay this publisher to lie?

The patentee had requested an order barring Abbott from pursuing its IPR challenges – based upon a forum selection clause that was part of a prior settlement between the parties. Judges Dyk and Hughes were also on the panel. o § Trademarks⠀➾ # ⚓ TTAB Blog ☛ The_TTAB_Issued_34_Precedential_Opinions_in 2023⠀⇛ The Board issued 34 precedential opinions in calendar 2023, a total slightly lower than in recent years.

[...] At work things where slow as expected but a highlight was the annual December lunch that again we did at La Marítima in the Valencia Port marina.

It's set in a city where something like half the population is actually robots (or maybe genetically modified humans?). Those robots play various roles in society, but their main thing is that they are kind of a buffer for humans' emotional outbursts. They mediate some relationships, massage some egos, generally make people feel better, and it makes that society work really well. # § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ "censorship"⠀⇛ A domain was blocked from Antenna after a political post was made.

Of course, this is not good and now I will know what the Antenna is. I fully support the opinion expressed in Christopher Howard's article "Standing With Israel (publ. 2024-01-01)."

One could argue it’s too much time. And in that time, I consume content. Mountains of content. Huge mountains of content. Maybe insurmountable mountains of content. No matter how much I try, there will always be another interesting blog post, YouTube video, or podcast episode. I consume a lot more than I create. I suspect I’m not alone in this. And I think there’s a good balance to be found here. Right now I feel the pendulum has swung too far in the direction of the consumption and I have to bring it back towards the middle. o ⚓ Matt Mullenweg ☛ Birthday_Gift⠀⇛ Publish a post.

We’ll also see all US federal agency policies toward the Nelson Memo officially published by year’s end. Personally, I have great concern about the impact this policy is going to have on researchers as there seems to have been little financial analysis and from what I’ve been hearing, little interest in doing any further such preparation for a set of complex policies that are going to shift significant amounts of funds out of research budgets. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ Children_were_thirsting_for_stories._This couple_built_them_a_library.⠀⇛ The biblioburro, or library mule, was just the start.

The Tahitian surfing venue is nearly 16,000 kilometers (10,000 miles) and 10 time zones away from Paris.

Today, I present you a quite special blog post, resulting from a partnership with the PC Manufacturer NovaCustom. I offered them to write an honest review for their product and also share my feedback as a user, in exchange for a NV41 laptop. This is an exceptional situation, I insist that it's not a sponsorship, I actually needed a laptop for my freelance work, and it turns they agreed. In our agreements, I added that I would return the laptop in the case I wouldn't like it, I don't want to generate electronic wastes and company's money for nothing. I have no plans to turn my blog into an advertisement platform and do this on a regular basis.

I mention her because she was one of the very first cancer quacks—if not the first cancer quack—whom I ever started writing about, going way, way back to my Usenet days in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Indeed, I first started writing about her on the first version of this blog nearly 20 years ago. Longtime readers and people who’ve combatted cancer quackery for a long time might remember that Hulda Clark’s brand of quackery, which dated back decades before I ever discovered it, involved the claim that all cancer—yes, all cancer—was caused by an intestinal parasite, specifically Fasciolopsis buski, which causes fasciolopsiasis, in which the parasites can cause abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, allergic reactions, fever, and even intestinal obstruction in severe cases. F. buski itself, which can infect pigs and humans, is called a giant intestinal fluke because it is exceptionally large fluke that can grow to as large as 7.5 cm. long and 2 cm wide. Note that there is zero evidence that this particular parasite causes cancer. # ⚓ Manuel Moreale ☛ Yet_another_year_of_living_without⠀⇛ Years ago, inspired by Leo Babauta, I did a year of living without. Each month I tried to live without something to see if it was actually something I needed in my life. It’s a fun experiment, one I personally recommend to anyone. This year, I’m gonna do it again but with the same twist I tried—very unsucessfully—last year. Instead of doing twelve one-month long experiments, I’m just going to do two but for the entire year. The two things I’m going to live without are: [...] # ⚓ Axios ☛ ChatGPT_had_a_high_error_rate_for_pediatric_cases⠀⇛ Researchers found ChatGPT incorrectly diagnosed over 8 in 10 selected pediatric case studies, raising questions about some bots' suitability for helping doctors size up complex conditions. * § Security⠀➾ o § Integrity/Availability/Authenticity⠀➾ # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ AI_watermarking_could_be_exploited_by bad_actors_to_spread_misinformation._But_experts_say_the_tech still_must_be_adopted_quickly⠀⇛ But there is no clear consensus regarding what a digital watermark is, or what common standards and policies around it should be, leading many AI experts and policymakers to fear that the technology could fall short of its potential and even empower bad actors. o § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ Off Guardian ☛ Moscow_to_prioritize_Davos-endorsed_plan_to cattle-tag_the_planet⠀⇛ “Digital public infrastructure” is a friendly space lizard euphemism for “you will be cattle-tagged and you will like it.” Probably you’ve read about the joys of DPI while browsing the websites of the United Nations, the World Economic Forum, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and other benevolent reservoirs of international altruism dedicated to creating a safe, convenient, equitable, inclusive, and extremely sustainable world. # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ Meet_‘Link_History,’_Facebook’s_New_Way_to_Track the_Websites_You_Visit⠀⇛ Facebook recently rolled out a new “Link History” setting that creates a special repository of all the links you click on in the Facebook mobile app. You can opt out if you’re proactive, but the company is pushing Link History on users, and the data is used for targeted ads. As lawmakers introduce tech regulations and Apple and Google beef up privacy restrictions, Meta is doubling down and searching for new ways to preserve its data harvesting empire. # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Facebook_debuts_Link_History_as_a_new_way to_keep_tabs_on_users’_browsing_habits⠀⇛ According to Meta, Link History will store all of the links a user has clicked on for a duration of 30 days.

The police department is the first law enforcement agency in the country to use drones to respond to emergency calls, and several other agencies across the U.S. have since adopted similar models. After the journalist, Arturo Castañares of La Prensa, sued, the trial court ruled that Chula Vista police could withhold all footage because the videos were exempt from disclosure as law enforcement investigatory records under the California Public Records Act. Castañares appealed. EFF, along with the First Amendment Coalition and the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, filed a friend-of-the-court brief in support of Castañares, arguing that categorically excluding all drone footage from public disclosure could have troubling consequences on the public’s ability to understand and oversee the police drone program. o ⚓ Papers Please ☛ “No-Fly”_case_to_be_argued_Jan._8th_in_the Supreme_Court⠀⇛ The U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral argument this Monday, January 8, 2024 on an appeal brought by the FBI challenging a Circuit Court decision in favor of Yonas Fikre.

Google began the year with significant strategic changes in light of AI advancements. A key part of this metamorphosis was the potential axing of 30,000 roles within the ad sales division “as it plans to restructure teams, with AI aiming to boost operational efficiency.” The information comes from Sean Downey, head of ad sales for major accounts in the U.S., who hinted at the possible reorganization.

She later clarified that “of course the Civil War was about slavery,” but her initial reluctance to say so is indicative of how Republican leaders have long avoided reckoning with the country’s past, says Harvard historian Khalil Gibran Muhammad. “Nikki Haley has consistently denied the relevance of the history of racism in this country and the presence of racism in this country,” he says. “This is the Republican Party.” o ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Xerox_to_lay_off_15%_of_its_workforce_amid_broad restructuring_initiative⠀⇛ Xerox Holdings Corp.’s stock plunged 12% today after the printer maker announced plans to let go 15% of its workforce, which comprised more than 20,000 employees at the end of 2022. o ⚓ India Times ☛ Google,_Meta_and_Tiktok's_debts_removed_from Russian_database⠀⇛ Following the invasion, Twitter and Meta Platforms' Facebook and Instagram were blocked, and Google-owned YouTube became a particular target of the Russian state's ire. o ⚓ International Business Times ☛ What_Kind_Of_Artificial Intelligence_Technological_Development_Trend_Can_We_Expect_In 2024?⠀⇛ A number of these technologies look set to dominate 2024 and drive new legal developments in artificial intelligence (AI) regulation. o ⚓ Truthdig ☛ The_Big_Lie:_What’s_Good_for_Corporate_America_Is_Good for_You⠀⇛ Hanauer, Walsh and Cohen show how corporations and their allies used the “crying wolf” strategy to claim that raising the minimum wage would harm the poor, that Social Security was a slippery slope towards socialism, and that the government has gone “too far” in regulating carbon emissions. “Let’s face it; the science of climate change is too uncertain to mandate a plan of action that could plunge economies into turmoil,” an Exxon executive declared in a 1997 ad in the New York Times. The authors don’t offer a comprehensive plan for combating corporate propaganda, but they do have some common sense advice: Expose those who fund right-wing messaging, push back in whatever way we can, and urge progressives to shape and deliver our own compelling stories.

Then the latent libertarian side of Hopkins’s leftism emerged as he became a vociferous critic of lockdowns and an opponent of vaccinations, both of which he claimed were elements of a nefarious GloboCap plot. In posts titled “The Germans Are Back” and “The Covidian Cult,” Hopkins blasted what he termed the “New Normal” of mass obedience, “pathologized totalitarianism,” and demonization of dissenters like him. Hopkins inevitably brought his writings over to Substack, and though not the movement-joining type, he expressed sympathy toward the Querdenker, a group of fringe self-styled “lateral thinkers” whom Germany’s domestic-intelligence service placed under surveillance for their sometimes-violent anti-lockdown protests. A self-published 2022 collection of his essays, The Rise of the New Normal Reich, features a blurb on its cover from Robert F.

A quiet, leafy village in the town of Mount Pleasant, less than 20 miles north of New York City, Pleasantville feels like the movie-set version of an affluent Northeastern suburb. Five-bedroom homes overlook tranquil cul-de-sacs and freshly mowed lawns. Kids really do ride their bikes in the street after school. The village is less than two square miles, so if you hit an errant ball at the Pleasantville Tennis Club, you could almost smack a neighbor teeing off at the Pleasantville Country Club. o ⚓ RFA ☛ No_new_monks_allowed_at_Buddhist_monastery_in_Tibet⠀⇛ This is the first time Chinese authorities have prohibited the enrollment of monks of all ages, though previously only minors, or those below the age of 18, were restricted from joining the monastic order in Tibet, said a source from inside the region. “Now, authorities have issued an order forbidding the intake of any new monks into Khyungbum Lura Monastery in Markham [county],” said the source who requested anonymity for safety reasons. o ⚓ Jacobin Magazine ☛ Eugene_V._Debs’s_Wisdom_for_the_New_Year⠀⇛ During World War I, Eugene V.

The European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), on the Spanish Costa Blanca, has an executive office the size of an average one-person Brussels apartment, with floor-to-ceiling views of the Mediterranean Sea and a balcony to really take them in. EUIPO is one of the EU's largest agencies, with a yearly budget of around €455 million and roughly 1,200 staff. It's self-funded, deriving revenue from trademark registrations and leaving it free to invest in its sprawling offices with sweeping sea views, deluxe sports grounds and a ritzy restaurant. “Everything is possible,” its new Executive Director João Negrão said in an interview from his spacious office overlooking the Spanish coastline.

When the company pushed to extend copyright length from 75 years to 95 years back in 1998, the law even became known as the “Mickey Mouse Protection Act” because it prevented the iconic character from entering the public domain. But that was then — now, as of January 1st, 2024, the earliest versions of the character seen in the 1928 animations Steamboat Willie and Plane Crazy can finally be used and referenced by anyone in the US without Disney’s permission, alongside other characters like an early version of Minnie Mouse and Peg Leg Pete. o ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ BitTorrent_Tracker_Blocks_Thousands_of 'Infringing'_Hashes⠀⇛ OpenTrackr is a content-neutral torrent tracker that facilitates millions of BitTorrent transfers.

In parallel, the Vietnamese government has just published a list of sites subject to an advertising ban, which includes some of the most resilient football piracy sites. To cite a Jaws analogy, Casemiro and friends need a bigger boat. o ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ A_New_Era_for_Mickey_Mouse⠀⇛ In 1998, Congress extended copyright periods for a range of works. The Copyright Term Extension Act—sometimes snarkily called the “Mickey Mouse Protection Act” due to Disney’s role in lobbying Congress—lengthened the period of copyright for many materials published before 1978 to 95 years (Steamboat Willie, along with other creative works such as D. H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover and Virginia Woolf’s Orlando, turns 95 this year). That law “transferred wealth to a tiny subset of rights owners,” Jennifer Jenkins, a clinical law professor at Duke University and the director of Duke’s Center for the Study of the Public Domain, told me in an email, and “stymied” the public’s ability to access and build on American cultural heritage. o ⚓ The Nation ☛ Mickey_Mouse_Loses_It!⠀⇛ o ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ Of_Course_the_First_Steamboat_Willie_Horror_Movie_Is Already_Here⠀⇛ Although not on the release scope that Blood and Honey managed to achieve last year, Mickey’s Mouse Trap follows a young woman named Alex on her 21st Birthday, who finds herself working a late shift at an amusement arcade—only to find it haunted by a masked killer dressed as the Steamboat Willie star. It’s a bit Five Nights at Freddy’s, it’s a bit Saw, it’s very much a bit skirting around what you can actually do with Steamboat Willie. The movie’s name just about dances around what Disney still owns about Mickey as a character in trademark (i.e., his name), and it’s very telling that Mickey isn’t uttered once in the trailer—although we do get to see snippets of Steamboat Willie playing, of course. * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ Antenna_Censorship_(publ._2024-01-03)⠀⇛ If you are conservative-leaning yourself, or if you want to believe that the posts you are seeing on Antenna roughly represent the broad spectrum of perspectives and opinions out there in the Gemiverse, then you should be troubled by this censorship. [...] If it doesn't bother you — fine — but be aware that the feed list you are seeing is really just a curated representation of opinions that are comfortable for the site administrator. # ⚓ The_Paradox_of_the_Radical_and_the_Conservative⠀⇛ This is a section from the section on the principle "Use Small and Slow Solutions" from David Holmgrens 'Permaculture Principles & Pathways Beyond Sustainability'. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ re:_AI_is_like_fire_🔥⠀⇛ Generative AI, as in "creating" texts and images based on previously existent stuff is a constant pursue of automation. "How can I remove the human to reduce time and cost?" (with all the good and worse parts of it, rights, emotions, harms and benefits) [...] Obviously the person extracting water by hand became unemployed. In a few years everyone in the town will forget that water was drawn by people whose main employment was pulling a rope in a well, as a few years ago there were telegraphs, letter carriers, horse riders and lamplighters... And we open a faucet ignoring the miracle behind piped water 🚰, we are so used to it! # ⚓ AI_is_like_fire⠀⇛ This moment of AI advancement feels like what the discovery of fire was probably like. Fear on the one hand, and potential on the other. It also feels like what the invention of the wheel was probably like: Some people stared at it and scratched their heads, and others were out there on day 1 making wheelbarrows, neither side quite able to wrap their minds around what just happened. As far as future impact, both were a net-positive. # ⚓ NovaCustom_NV41_laptop_review⠀⇛ # ⚓ NovaCustom_NV41_laptop_review⠀⇛ Hello! Today, I present you a quite special blog post, resulting from a partnership with the PC Manufacturer NovaCustom. I offered them to write an honest review for their product and also share my feedback as a user, in exchange for a NV41 laptop. This is an exceptional situation, I insist that it's not a sponsorship, I actually needed a laptop for my freelance work, and it turns they agreed. In our agreements, I added that I would return the laptop in the case I wouldn't like it, I don't want to generate electronic wastes and company's money for nothing. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ An_ode_to_dead_end_webpages⠀⇛ There are millions of webpages on the internet, specifically on the wbe, which are dead-end. I find this quite poetic that among a sea of hypertextual movement those pages stand still, with little to no links towards them, and no links at all from them to the outside. They are dead ends that beg you to check them out, ones that have nothing to offer but themselves. Hermit pages. There is poetry in this. Sometimes, they are pages which exist, but whose domain doesn't exist by itself, with no way of tracing them back to a bigger context or circumstances, other than what their contents say about them. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software. It's like the World Wide Web but a lot lighter. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 4169 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 8 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
