Last night (starting_a break) it was exactly 3 months before the 20-year anniversary. This month we'll catch a bit with longstanding backlogs, such as those pertaining to behind-the- scenes RMS stories, some pertaining to his_more_recent_public_talks. GNU/Linux has earned a lot of good press lately, mostly_because_it's_hard_to "diss"_(or_dismiss)_it_as_some_"dork_thing"_that_nobody_uses_and/or_nobody_can use. Next month this system turns 43 (ignore the noise from the_so-called_'Linux' Foundation, it's revisionism, the_first_combination_of_GNU_and_Linux_will_be_35 years_old_in_2027) and it's not hard to see why it caught on. It's also not hard to see why it has come under so many different attacks and different forms of resistance. GNU/Linux is not just code, it's a philosophy, licence (copyleft), and community. █ =============================================================================== Image source: Techrights_Turns_18 =============================================================================== * GNU/Linux_Turns_43_Next_Month,_Many_Distros_Actively_Maintained * SLAPP_Censorship_-_Part_143_Out_of_200:_After_Nearly_10_Attempts_to Settle_With_Us_and_Over_a_Million_Pounds_Spent_on_Lawyers_and_Barristers ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣐⣲⣒⣒⠂⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣄⡀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⡅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠓⠀⡀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⠀⠀⠀ ⠆⣞⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠛⠿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣾⣿⣄⣠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢐⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀⣼⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢁⡀⠀ ⠀⣠⠴⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⣨⣷⠄ ⣞⣼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣷⣇⠀⠀⢰⣾⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠘⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠋⠁⠂ ⣿⡿⡀⠀⠀⢀⡞⣥⣤⡝⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⢤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣾⣿⣾⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠔⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢾⣿⠑⠀⠀⠀⠘⡇⢠⠀⠀⠀⢹⡏⠀⠀⣰ ⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠈⠧⠿⠿⣣⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣆⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠉⠙⣸⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣶⣶⣶⡆⡟⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿ ⣿⣷⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠁⠀⠀⣀⣴⣿⣷⣤⣤⣾⣿⣿⠹⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡇⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⣠⣤⣤⣄⣠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈ ⠀⠛⠇⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡏⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⡷⠀⠀⢰⣦⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⡀⣠⣿⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡇⠀⠸⡿⣿⠿⡽⠃⠀⠀⡵⠄⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣹⡏⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠃⢰⣿⡄⠀⠋ ⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠻⣞⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡇⠀⠀⢣⣿⣷⣤⡀⡠⠜⣿⣿⣿⣿⣥⡇⠀⠀⠉⠡⠄⠀⠀⢀⣼⡃⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡮⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢷⠀⣠ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⢸⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢧⡇⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⢨⣿⣿⣿⡟⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣃⡀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿ ⠃⣠⡄⠀⠀⠀⠸⠄⠛⢧⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⠭⠍⠉⠘⠁⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⡄⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣦⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⢧⠀⠀⢸⣿ ⣼⣿⣷⣤⣤⣴⣶⣤⣀⡐⢚⣂⣀⣀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣀⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡐⠋⣀⣀⣠⠤⢤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣒⣒⣒⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠯⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣂⣒⣒⣺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣒⣒⣒⣺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣒⣒⣒⣺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡒⣒⣒⣺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⣒⣒⣺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 161 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/GNU_Linux_Turns_43_Next_Month_Many_Distros_Actively_Maintained.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/GNU_Linux_Turns_43_Next_Month_Many_Distros_Actively_Maintained.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux Turns 43 Next Month, Many Distros Actively Maintained⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 Next month GNU/Linux has its birthday or anniversary again. It's now becoming very mainstream on laptops and desktops, helped by various factors including the fast-rising_cost_of_new_hardware_(or_components_thereof). The late Murdock (the "Ian" in "Debian") said that his main baby or project took off owing to positive words from the founder of GNU/Linux, in effect sending many developers to Debian, in turn attracting users as well. Not many people, except on devices and servers, choose Debian (for their "PC"), but most distros that are popular on PCs are based on Debian. That includes Ubuntu and everything based on Ubuntu. As recalled today in_the_sister_site, "a recent family tree of GNU/Linux distributions (pictured above) makes clear the absolutely key role played by the Debian project in the world of free software, and the enduring contribution of the man who created it." Here_it_is: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Linux Distributions Timeline⦈ A lot of Debian-based distros are still actively maintained (we talk about this in IRC this evening), so the stability of the Debian Project is important. Cult-like elements pose a risk to stability.

It's nowhere to be found in the front page of "r/IBM" though (nothing about it!), they had to create "r/IBM_Employees" to be heard. IBM has no culture of free speech.

It was a fake "leak", timed to distract from a major crisis that week. Vista 11 is in s state of crisis. Aside from TPMs and other truly malicious stuff (if not artificial requirements, sold as "security" in a system that has deliberate back doors!) there is the very steep hardware demand, especially system RAM. Recently, Microsoft was caught pretending that somehow, magically (without explanation anyone can believe), after 5 years Vista 11 would suddenly cease to require a lot of RAM. The real reason is, GNU/Linux is rising. It's rising at Windows' expense. Vista 11 is in trouble, releasing a Vista 12 would likely anger businesses that have only just "upgraded" to 11, and aside from slop (which causes_trillions_in losses) it seems like no new features are offered. Many avoid Vista 11 precisely because they wish to avoid slop. █ * Kompromat_Tactics_in_GNU_and_Linux * Gemini_Links_08/08/2026:_Gigs,_Poems,_SREs,_and_Shared_Passion ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡇⣿⣞⢫⣝⣉⢽⠘⣭⣭⢫⡍⣯⣭⣿⡏⣾⡆⡏⣭⠛⣭⣹⣭⢯⣽⣭⡇⣯⣭⡏⠭⣽⣧⣛⢏⣟⣍⢭⢨⣏⣍⡏⣭⣭⢹⣿⡜⣏⢸⢭⣽⢩⡇⣫⣏⣍⡅⣽⣧⣛⠇⣭⢹⢭⢽⢩⣏⣍⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣷⣶⣾⣷⣶⣶⣾⣾⣾⣶⣷⣶⣷⣶⣿⣿⣶⣾⣇⣶⣿⣶⣾⣿⣶⣾⣷⣷⣿⣿⣗⣒⣹⣷⣶⣟⣼⣶⣾⣶⣷⣶⣷⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣾⣾⣶⣾⣾⣷⣷⣷⣶⣷⣾⣷⣶⣶⣿⣾⣶⣾⣾⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡏⣇⣹⡸⣭⣻⢩⡇⢯⣍⡟⣏⠟⣿⢫⡅⡟⠍⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣼⣧⣿⣭⣾⣼⣧⣯⣵⣿⣼⣼⣿⣮⣥⣷⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡏⠭⠛⠏⣛⣿⣭⢹⣭⠛⣭⡫⠝⣿⣿⣿⡙⡟⡟⢟⢛⣯⡍⣯⡝⣭⢹⢭⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣧⣿⣬⣥⣥⣿⣥⣽⣭⣶⣭⣯⣽⣿⣿⣧⣿⣥⣥⣁⣸⣯⣬⣧⣵⣥⣽⣭⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡏⠫⠫⡙⢹⢛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠘⠛⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢰⣶⣶⣤⣈⣀⣉⠙⠛⠛⠿⣿⣿⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⣁⣰⣶⣶⣶⣦⣀⣄⣄⣁⠈⠋⣈⠉⠛⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣤⣄⡄⠙⠉⠋⠙⠿⢿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠏⠫⡙⢹⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣤⣤⣴⡀⠻⠿⠛⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⠟⠛⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⣶⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣴⣶⣦⡀⢻⣿⠏⣁⣀⣉⣀⡉⢠⠀⡄⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠉⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠘⠛⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⡆⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⢘⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠆⠀⠀⢸⣿⠄⢳⠐⠃⠀⡆⢊⠰⢂⠲⢸⠘⠸⠰⠆⡆⢊⠠⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⡛⢻⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⡛⢻⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠟⠛⡛⢻⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⣈⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⠿⢿⠋⣁⣤⣀⣀⣈⡉⠉⠙⠛⠻⠛⠁⣸⣿⣀⠘⠛⠙⠋⠹⣿⠛⣿⡿⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠟⠛⠋⢉⣉⣈⣀⣀⣤⣤⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣶⠀⠟⠀⠟⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠻⠛⠿⠋⠉⠉⡉⣁⡀⠉⣀⣀⣤⣴⣶⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⣀⠀⡀⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠘⠛⠋⢉⣀⣈⣠⣤⣤⣤⣴⣶⣶⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⠙⠛⠀⠉⠉⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⡛⢻⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠒⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢫⢙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡙⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢏⠃⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⢳⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠙⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⢑⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣄⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣥⣓⣽⣄⣠⣀⣀⣈⣂⣁⣀⣺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣚⣬⣇⣃⣈⣇⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣘⣨⣇⣃⣀⣘⣀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣟⢿⢛⡟⠛⢛⠛⠛⠟⢻⢻⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣻⠻⡟⢻⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣻⡻⡿⠛⡛⠛⢛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣷⣶⣶⣷⣶⣶⣷⣾⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣷⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣾⣷⣷⣷⣶⣾⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣭⣽⣐⣂⣇⣉⣉⣏⢎⣈⣃⣃⣉⣙⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 447 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/IRC_Proceedings_Friday_August_07_2026.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/IRC_Proceedings_Friday_August_07_2026.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ IRC Proceedings: Friday, August 07, 2026⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Fisherman_casting_his_net_for_bait_fish_on_the_beach_at Florida,_USA⦈_ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GN 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GNOME_Gedit⦈_ #techrights_log #boycottnovell_log 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GN 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GNOME_Gedit⦈_ #boycottnovell-social_log #techbytes_log =============================================================================== The corresponding text-only bulletins for_Tux_Machines and for_Techrights contain all the text.

! ⦈ IBM and Red Hat tell us not to use words like "master" and "slave". Maybe they're language-policing to suppress critics. Right now it's reported that in order to hide mass layoffs IBM is culling "contractors" - the same_loophole_Microsoft_used_some_days_earlier. They don't care about computer security. They don't care about job security, either. They want cheap, obedient lemmings. Scabs. Work, then get out. No explanation, no reason, no severance. Not even WARN notices. They bypass the intention of labour laws. They circumvent the purpose. █ * Gemini_Links_08/08/2026:_Tribute_to_Lloyd_Center,_Radio_Amateurism, Homeworlds * What_Will_it_Take_for_Mainstream_Media_to_Report_Silent_or_Secret_Layoffs at_IBM?

Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Volksschule_c._1900⦈_ 35 years ago a 21-year-old Linus Torvalds released a kernel. Torvalds had come from a left-leaning family (his father's work related to this political and journalistic orientation) and despite living with 4 girls (his wife and 3 daughters) some_people_tried_calling_him_"sexist". Evidence of this was so thin and the accusations mostly came from the "Incel_Bar" online, basically brigading people in social control media based on phony characterisations and demonisations one cannot respond to (dispel), even with an account in social control media. Funnily enough, in the fallout or aftermath of it all they put Torvalds - not the "Incel Bar" - under psychological care ("manners training" as fellow developers mockingly called it) as if something was inherently wrong with him. Stalin must have smiled in his grave. Then they tried to police language. The person who led this effort at the Linux_Foundation himself had mental struggles, according_to_his_wife (he too had 3 daughters). Last month the person whose spouse calls him a rapist (his_response_was_not_a_denial_but an_ad_hominem_attack) attempted to put_my_wife_in_prison after making_an "offer"_to_her. To me, this seems like a form of blackmail. Blackmail tactics are not the invention of the Soviets. As Wikipedia puts_it: "Kompromat (Russian: компромат, IPA: [kəmprɐˈmat] ⓘ; short for компрометирующий материал, variously translated as "compromising material", "discrediting material", or "incriminating material") is damaging information about a person or a group, commonly a politician, businessperson, or other public figure, which may be used for negative campaigning or smear campaigning to discredit the person or group. It can also be used for blackmail purposes, often to exert influence over a person rather than for monetary gain, and extortion. The dissemination of kompromat is a key tactic in "dark PR" or "black PR" campaigns.[1] Kompromat may be acquired from security agencies or intelligence agencies, or outright forged, and then publicized, e.g., via a public relations official." Kompromat as a concept was covered here in the past in relation to Microsoft. Ryan covered_that_as_well. █ =============================================================================== Image source: Volksschule_c._1900 =============================================================================== * SLAPP_Censorship_-_Part_143_Out_of_200:_After_Nearly_10_Attempts_to Settle_With_Us_and_Over_a_Million_Pounds_Spent_on_Lawyers_and_Barristers * If_GNU/Linux_Rising_is_Just_"Bots"_(It's_Not,_Many_Surveys_Show_the Same),_Why_Does_Microsoft_Rush_to_Lie_About_System_Requirements_of_Vista 11? ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣭⣛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣉⣉⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠿⠿⠿⠿⠏⢉⣿⣷⡉⠉⠉⠉⠉⣽⣿⣿⣎⠋⠙⠋⢹⣿⣿⣿⡈⠛⠛⠛⠺⢿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢿⣿⠟⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⡿⠛⠛⠋⢹⣿⣿⣿⠁⠁⢸⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣶⣰⣆⠀⢄⢻⣿⡷⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣟⡋⡀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢹⣿⡋⠁⠀⠀⠁⠀⢜⣋⠓⠀⢂⣀⣸⠟⠘⠷⣃⠀⠀⠇⠀⠀⢿⣭⠄⠰⢸⡟⠉⢿⣟⠋⠈⠁⠀⠽⠓⠀⠀⠿⠘⠈⢻⣛⠇⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠛⠃⠉⢀⣤⠘⠿⣐⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⡞⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠀⢶⣿⣿⣷⡏⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣄⠀⢰⠃⠀⠁⡀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⢿⡷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣥⣴⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⡿⠠⣤⣦⣾⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⡁⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣽⣿⠗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡙⠈⡇⣿ ⣿⣿⡇⢠⣿⣿⡷⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣭⣤⡇⠀⠀⢀⡠⠤⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡍⣴⠇⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⢀⠀⠀⣨ ⠛⠻⠓⠀⠙⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢷⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢑⠋⠀⠀⠀⡠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⠇⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣾⢀⣠⣿⣿⣇⠀⡀⢀⡠⢄⠀⠻⣶⣾⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣉⣉⠋⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠃⢀⣼⣿⣤⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣷⣶⣶⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠋⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠿⢿⣿⠉⠀⠉⣠⣶⣶⣶⠁⠈⠋⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠂⢨⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣻⣿⣿⡁⠀⠀⠀ ⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠿⣿⣿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢙⡿⢏⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣸⣿⡿⣣⣤⣀⡀⠀⠀⢞⠿⣠⡆⣠⣤⠀⠀⠰⠆⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⡿⠿⢟⣤⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣒⣢⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣶⣶⡂⠹⣷⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣾⣿⣿⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢫⠻⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢶⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⠿⡿⡧⠀⠀⣿⡄⠋⠋⢹⣿⡞⠁⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣫⣽⠆⠀⠀⠈⢿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⡷⠂⠹⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣤⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠃⠊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣿⣿⣿⣷⡑⠀⠀⠓⡀⠸⠛⠁⢀⣀⣨⣧⣀⣀⣠⢍⠀⠈⠉⣿⡿⡿⠿⢟⣿⣿⣿⣧⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠨⡟⢿⣢⣤⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⡑⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⡟⠃⠀⠀⢠⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠛⠙⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣇⡆⠀⠉⠻⣿⣿⡛⢿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢭⣶⣿⢿⡿⡽⢿⣿⠆⠀⠀⠀ ⣆⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣿⣻⡟⡅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⢤⣄⢮⠁⠀⠀⢠⣭⡿⠀⠀⠉⠡⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠉⣰⠾⠃⠀⢀⠁⠀⠀⠀ ⠛⢻⠟⠛⣿⣿⣃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠶⣶⣶⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⡅⢼⡿⣿⡟⣿⡅⣴⡀⢰⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⠷⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠺⢿⣶⣤⣶ ⡖⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⢀⣶⣾⡃⣤⣭⣷⣾⣥⣯⣬⣿⠏⡀⠁⣀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢻⣿⣿⠟⢠⣤⣀⠀⣀⣠⣤⠄⠈⠀⠸⣿ ⡇⠀⠀⢠⣶⣮⠁⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⡀⢻⣿⣿⠛⠀⠀⠰⠛⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⣙⣿⡾⡿⠋⠉⠀⠃⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠶⠆⠀⠀⠈⢻⡇⠀⠀⠀⠰⣴⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣷⣊⠀⢿⣿⡛⠟⠛⠛⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢃⡤⠴⡿⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠐⠿⠋⠀⠐⢻⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠄⠀⠀⠀⠁ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠀⠠⠖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠳⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠂⠀⠀⠘⠾⠿⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣦⣤⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢺⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⣽⠥⢴⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡟⠉⠁⠀⠀⢀⣄⠀⣠⣶⢶⡤⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣧⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢱⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⢀ ⣿⡛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣤⣤⢤⡀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠒⠀⢀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠈⠈ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 890 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/More_Mass_Layoffs_Coming_IBM_s_Way_Ones_IBM_Cannot_Hide_Cannot_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/More_Mass_Layoffs_Coming_IBM_s_Way_Ones_IBM_Cannot_Hide_Cannot_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ More Mass Layoffs Coming IBM's Way (Ones IBM Cannot Hide, Cannot Convince Enough People to Leave or Unjustifiably PIP Them When They Say No)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇PIP, IBM Logo Font⦈ Now that IBM_gets_rid_of_many_contractors, tells veteran workers to leave and PIPs up_to_15%_of_its_workforce people still_expect_"RAs_for_September_in process_by_Management". This was a short while ago: "Not sure on the number of folks impacted across BUs but RA are coming in Sept. Given that this have been the worst quarter with a historic price drop, let’s hope for the best." There's this other new_question that comments find suspicious: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Has anyone here been affected by an RA and is willing to share their experience?⦈ "What also is concerning is how Arvind preannounced that the 2nd quarters financial results were going to be down," Someone_pointed_out_hours_ago. "This was not the first time IBM had a significant earnings or revenue miss so why the preannounce?" Things are vastly worse than what they told Wall Street and they have no innovation coming, just vapourware, i.e. false promises. About IBM_Expert_Labs_(TEL) someone wrote some hours ago: "TEL is dying for sure. It is a slow death, but a sure death. No longer the place to work in." The same is said about Albany, a waste of money leveraged only for vapourware spectacles of the CEO. "IBM is going down the same playbook as before," somebody_explained_hours_ago. "Eliminate the on shore expense and hire in India. The problem is there are far fewer on shore heads to go after these days due to repeated past RA actions, and the on shore heads have more value chain experience vs previous rounds so you actually start impacting the business. I figure IBM has at least 1 big off shoring left in them which will result in approx 35k remaining on shore. (10k of employees results in approx 700 million in savings) So what’s a CEO to do after that. Perhaps it’s time to look at the off shore headcount and start managing for efficiency vs just labor replacement. If IBM managed for efficiency, the off shore head count could be reduced by 30-40%..." Is there anything left that IBM can diminish without injuring itself? As far as cost-savings go, they already cancel a lot of travel. The company that was like a "father of modern computing" is now stingy when it comes to travel. Not a good sign. █ * What_Will_it_Take_for_Mainstream_Media_to_Report_Silent_or_Secret_Layoffs at_IBM? * IBM's_'Final_Solution':_Censor_Sites_Not_Controlled_by_IBM,_Sites_Where Dissent_is_Expressed

Controlled Red Hat is Becoming Like the Microsoft-Infiltrated Nokia⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 Dying fast, partly by_design Red Hat was established in the 1990s by a businessman in a hat (wearing a red hat, literally). As Thomas Grzybowski put_it_6_years_ago: "A friend of mine was attending one of the OLF Conferences, on Saturday November 7th, and he happened to find a seat listening to Bob Young of Red Hat. Young was telling a story about how a few years ago he had explained to Richard Stallman that he himself was more committed to Free Software than Stallman was. In his view, Stallman was only ideologically supporting Free Software, while Red Hat’s entire business model depended upon on it. And through Red Hat’s commercialization of GNU/Linux, Young had brought open-source/free software into wide-spread corporate acceptance and into the marketplace such that many more people could benefit." Years have passed, GNU/Linux is very widely used on servers, and even on desktops and laptops a_lot_of_progress_has_been_made_lately. However, Bob Young left Red Hat behind a very long time ago (he cared deeply about it; the CEOs who came later only cared about their own money) and it has passed between hands several times. Now a dying IBM controls Bob Young's "baby" and staff receives_messages_insinuating_that_there's_not_much_time_left. Some recent_comments say budget cuts (by Wright) will come next, resulting in profound and disappointing changes. It starts in October. Earlier this year a reader told me: "I used to work at Georgia Tech's Open Source Program Office last year, where I was accepted into their joint program with IBM. That experience is one I'll never forget, as I learned first hand how IBM operates internally; and it hurt, as RedHat was my dream job/company growing up." Dreams shattered. From what we have heard from whistleblowers (Red Hat staff), they hate IBM, they say IBM is ruining the company (including its culture), many want out, and some already leave or are kicked out silently (they cannot say what they really think or feel). What's needed for RHEL to go on and become free again is the sort of thing two much smaller companies did (one led by the original CentOS creator). It's difficult to forget what Microsoft did to Nokia. Microsoft and its footsoldiers (including the very nasty man who pretends to know security) want us to forget. Free software can survive as long as the source code is free. IBM_tries_to_get in_the_way. IBM_wants_many_of_the_same_things_Microsoft_wants. █ * Gemini_Links_08/08/2026:_Gigs,_Poems,_SREs,_and_Shared_Passion * next ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1456 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/Retained_The_Time_IBM_s_Red_Hat_Tried_to_Hijack_or_Take_Offline.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.techrights.org/n/2026/08/08/Retained_The_Time_IBM_s_Red_Hat_Tried_to_Hijack_or_Take_Offline.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Retained: The Time IBM's Red Hat Tried to Hijack or Take Offline Site of Critics, Failed on All Grounds (Meritless Action Intended to Harass Critics)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 Replicated_from_adrforum.com: ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ ,"serif"">DECISION⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ ,"serif"">  ,"serif"">Red Hat, Inc. v.

Complainant ,"serif"">Complainant is a leading provider of open-source software and support. Complainant offers a range of products, including Linux platforms, middleware, cloud computing and storage for companies in a wide range of industries, and provides support and training and certification courses for its software. ,"serif"">  ,"serif"">Complainant has used the trademark FEDORA in connection with these goods and services since at least as early as September, 2001 and has advertised them over the Internet via the web site “www.getfedora.org” since 2014. Complainant has rights in the FEDORA mark through registration of the mark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). Respondent’s domain name is confusingly similar to Complainant’s mark. ,"serif"">  ,"serif"">Respondent has no rights to or legitimate interests in the domain name. Respondent is not commonly known by the domain name. Complainant has not consented to Respondent’s use of the domain name and has not authorized or licensed to Respondent any rights in the FEDORA mark. Additionally, Respondent does not use the domain name for any bona fide offering of goods or services or legitimate noncommercial or fair use. Instead, Respondent’s adoption of a name that is virtually identical to Complainant’s registered trademark to offer or to discuss software and software design and development services does not constitute any right or legitimate interest in the domain name on the part of Respondent. ,"serif"">  ,"serif"">Respondent registered the domain name in bad faith with actual knowledge of Complainant’s rights in the FEDORA mark and did so in order to disrupt Complainant’s business. Respondent uses the domain name in bad faith to divert Complainant’s customers for commercial gain. ,"serif"">  ,"serif"">B. Respondent ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">The prefix “We Make” is not confusing. It is entirely accurate. As an open-source product, volunteers make Fedora side by side with the employees of Complainant. This is noted in Complainant’s founding documents, Exhibit 104: ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">“There is a place in Fedora for anyone who wants to help, regardless of technical skill level, as long as they believe in our core values. Like any friends, we occasionally disagree on details, but we believe in finding an acceptable consensus to serve the interests of advancing free software. We believe in a strong partnership between Red Hat and our enormous volunteer community, since they both provide essential contributions that help the Fedora Project succeed.” ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">This statement makes it clear that Respondent’s Software Freedom Institute SA and other institutions are welcome collaborators on Complainant’s Fedora product. Complainant operates an official site, FedoraPlanet.org which aggregates blogs from volunteers. It is very similar to ,"serif"; layout-grid-mode:line"> ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">. Nonetheless, FedoraPlanet.org has chosen to censor the contributions of some volunteers (Exhibit 114). ,"serif";layout-grid-mode:line"> ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">includes the censored blogs.

These further convey the rights of all volunteers to assert We Make Fedora. As We Make Fedora, we are authoring a software product as volunteers and as a community. We have a clear right and interest in asserting our authorship. ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">During 2021 various community members published blogs that were censored from the official aggregation site operated by Complainant (FedoraPlanet.org) but they appeared uncensored on the ,"serif"; layout-grid-mode:line"> ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">aggregation site, which provides a means for volunteers to highlight their work, past and present, despite the efforts of other parties to delete or disparage those contributions. ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">As to bad faith, Complainant has submitted five articles posted by different volunteers on ,"serif";layout-grid-mode: line"> ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">in early October 2021 which appear to describe technical subjects and social phenomena in the open-source community (Exhibit 4). None of these articles appear to be asking for money. None of them are asking visitors to abandon Complainant’s Fedora product and use an alternative. These blogs complement the development of Complainant’s Fedora product. Through its founding documents (Exhibit 104), Complainant encourages volunteers to contribute content and speak freely. ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">Respondent’s ,"serif";layout-grid-mode: line"> ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">website does not feature banner advertising or any other additions to the content. It only contains the original content created by Fedora volunteers. The only banner on the site is the disclaimer encouraging people to download Fedora, which includes contributions from the volunteers, from Complainant's official download page. Therefore, the claim that Respondent is operating the site for commercial gain is unsubstantiated and somewhat vexatious. ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">The Complaint appears to be about stifling the voices of volunteers in the community and suppressing evidence of our authorship of intellectual property in the open-source products distributed under the trademark FEDORA. ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">Respondent clearly has an interest in the domain name due to the communication from the trademark owner at the time of registration, public statements made by Complainant encouraging us to engage in free ways of working and the longstanding history of joint authorship of the trademarked product, FEDORA. ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">  ,"serif"" xml:lang="EN-AU">The domain name is not used in bad faith, given that the web site directs people back to the trademark owner's site, doesn't ask for money, doesn't run banner advertising, doesn't ask for personal registration.

We are in no particular hurry. The hired_guns (they_live_up_to_that_label) and their biggest sponsor complain that my_statement_about_the_"litigation"_(SLAPP_for_two_Americans_who_tag-team) does not satisfy their false narrative, which basically very_likely_constituted a_contempt_of_court (they lied to many judges about it without qualm until their own client confessed he had collaborated with the other even prior to the case). There's a connection to a third American as well. It is clearly demonstrated as recently as this week or even the trial. It is very damning. Our general position, which we've explained before, is that they are just angry they fared_so_poorly and are likely to have to tell their biggest client (not this_one) to send a lot more money he lacks. His_litigation_buddy likewise. Amassing over a million pounds in legal bills is a burden on the clients; if they don't pay, it's a huge burden on the firm. No mentally sound third party would throw any money into this any longer (even those_that_did_before). Lawyering up or lawfare isn't about justice, it's about testing the depth of the other side's pockets. That they attempt to settle so many times (we've lost count) says a lot about their own confidence in their litigation campaigns. We'll spend the coming decade writing about this to better alert others. It should be alarming that GAFAM et al engage in such online campaigns, and nothing is beyond their reach (even other continents) [1, 2]. █ Previous Parts: 2026-

Media to Report Silent or Secret Layoffs at IBM?⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 08, 2026 "Silent" or "secret" sometimes because the media won't cover them. Recent hours: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Today marks my last working day with IBM.⦈ 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Today is my last day at IBM. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have worked on HashiCorp Nomad for nearly a decade⦈ This year IBM forced mass layoffs several times at Red Hat. The press didn't report this. At the same time they picked interns (low paid), then said goodbye. Similarly, IBM forced mass layoffs at Confluent (the_media_didn't_find_almost 1,000_layoffs_important_enough_to_report) and did the same in HashiCorp, another company it had bought to gut (not long afterwards). Where was the media? Where's the scrutiny? After bluewashing, IBM's RAs extend to all the above companies. Somehow the "media" (paid_by_the_likes_of_IBM) somehow overlooks or misses all this. █ * Is_the_Future_of_IBM_Red_Hat_Temporary_Staff,_Contractors? *

Nothing to think about, nowhere to go, no one to be there for. I wake up, realize nothingness, go back to sleep. The cat has food, I could sleep all day if I needed. Ravens are partying in the compost. The gross chicken wings I tried to cook the next morning of the party was a feast for them. It wakes me up. I'm in a strange rhythm of work and rest. It works well, although I don't feel like I'm working a lot, money is getting in, task are getting done. # ⚓ Gig_2⠀⇛ Second of four summer gigs today - we're playing at a gaming convention this afternoon. Other than that, I don't have a lot on the docket for the weekend. I need to do some proofreading for the summer issue of the little magazine I edit, send the proofs to the contributors. Practice a bit; do some writing or songwriting. Watch my Blue Jays lose. # § Poetry⠀➾ # ⚓ Moss_(poe/en)⠀⇛ wander deep into the realm of nightingales never to be heard again left to pet rocks and inhale the scent through moss intertwined # ⚓ Halfway_(poe/en)⠀⇛ I think... I feel ready enough. # ⚓ Change_(poe/en)⠀⇛ i'm death leaving space for life to flourish a messenger of change and the change itself for when the cats run out of lives... what remains? # § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ "97_Things_Every_SRE_Should_Know"_book_notes⠀⇛ These are my personal book notes of Emil Stolarsky's and Jaime Woo's "97 Things Every SRE Should Know". They are for myself, but I hope they might be useful to you too. # ⚓ Shared_Passion⠀⇛ I have a penchant for niche smartphones and UMPCs. In the realm of smartphones, I particularly like keyboard phones and phones with e-paper. Naturally, when I heard that the Minimal Phone MP01 would combine both, I was extremely interested in it. However, I didn't have the spare cash to purchase one when it came out, and most of the reviews I read for it were pretty middling, so I decided to hold off. Meanwhile, I picked up an original Pro1, a second Pro1 X, and an original Unihertz Titan. Some of my friends are also interested in niche devices, but none of them are interested specifically in modern keyboard phones. I've never met anyone else in real life who had a modern keyboard phone--until tonight. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

At the time, malls had everything, and lots more were built around them. Malls were destinations, not just places to get in and out. As a young adult in Seattle, I often spent time at the Westlake Center for cheap dinners or to browse the shelves of the Brentano's bookstore. When I moved into my very first apartment, my uncle took me to the Factoria Mall to get the household essentials at Target. Bellevue Square had the art museum on the top floor, and there was an all-you- can-eat Italian restaurant on the first floor. Then the SuperMall of the Northwest, billed as the biggest in the Pacific Northwest at the time, opened in Auburn. I remember spending hours there. # ⚓ Reunion⠀⇛ Several weeks ago I missed my 25 year high school reunion. Actually, missed is the wrong word. I skipped it. I avoided it. The event was held less than ten miles from my house, and I went out of my way not to go. To be honest, this was the closest I've come to going to one of these reunions. A few weeks prior, I had pulled out my old senior yearbook and spent an afternoon looking through it. I read the messages that were written in the interior cover pages, looked through the team, club, and organization photos. I studied every single one of the over 400 senior pictures in my graduating class, trying to recall anything I could about each of those young people who were now so distant from me in time and space. # ⚓ heirlooms⠀⇛ doll legs dangling from the top shelf of the closet childhood favourite watching over heirlooms no one dared let go # ⚓ Bike_shedding⠀⇛ The art of bike shedding is to argue about something that is suitable to be argued about; this includes the term bike shedding itself. In the original definition there are three items for discussion in a meeting: a coffee service, a bike shed, and a nuclear reactor. The coffee service is too trivial to argue about, and the reactor too complex, but the bike shed is just right, being in the argumentative Goldilocks zone where most anyone can weigh in with an opinion as to the materials or paint color or whatever. This definition assumes a stereotypical corporate lackey, where the coffee service is beneath their notice and reactor above their paygrade. # ⚓ Re:_Radio_Amateurism⠀⇛ Your comment about your family reminded me of a family I would hear on a local repeater in the previous town I lived in years ago. On the commute home from work the husband and wife would see where each other were and set plans for dinner, what shopping was needed and who was picking up one of the kids from a friend's house. It was a fairly quiet repeater so I'm sure no one cared nor was really listening. They most likely used their radios as it was becoming illegal to use your phone in your vehicle in some cases. Amateur radio was exempt from all those rules. # ⚓ Petanque?!⠀⇛ Petanque is a boules-type game played with sets of hollow steel balls and a small wooden ball called a "cochonnet". Its modern version originated from southern France in the early part of the 1900's. Petanque is played around the world, and is a very accessible sport or pastime for all age groups and levels of athletic ability. o § Homeworlds⠀➾ # ⚓ Homeworlds:_More_About_Green_Ships⠀⇛ As far as ship colors to start with and focus on, green has seemed like a good choice, as (1) green ships can be used in conjunction with blue stars to allow for rapid growth; and (2) once most of the green ships have been taken out of the bank, it is possible to sacrifice a large green ship to do the factory trick, allowing you to build multiple ships and then get the large green ship back as your third build. However, something that does offset this second advantage is that, in order to pull off the factory trick, you have to have another green ship at the star system where you want the large green ship to respawn. This is often problematic, as having two green ships stationed long term at one star system makes them more vulnerable to an overpopulation attack. If the large green ship is at your home world, it is also often the case that you will need to send that second green ship off to another system to help grow a fleet elsewhere. So, often you will find yourself in a situation where you technically can perform the factory trick, but you don't have another green ship at the place where you want to respawn. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ internet_use_tracker⠀⇛ i've been vaguely trying it out this week - not really tracking anything but paying attention whether this makes sense at all. i think the socials and the one-vid-for-eating make sense and are perfectly doable, as is the backgammon. but there's still a lot of time to fill and trying to be Creative about it is exhausting, it's very easy to get drawn into something else for hours (like playing on the switch). i'm hoping that the incoming autumn will awaken me from the summer stupor and i'll have more energy to do the active figuring-out sort of things... not sure that counts for much of a plan... # ⚓ Cale_Loveridge's_MiniPin_Pinball_Machines_Are_Printable_on Almost_Any_3D_Printer_—_With_One_Spool⠀⇛ Maker Cale Loveridge has launched a crowdfunding campaign for playable pinball tables with a difference: they're miniaturized for printability on even compact 3D printers. "MiniPin is a highly detailed, 3D printable miniature pinball machine that captures the look, feel, and charm of a full-size pinball machine in a compact desktop format," Loveridge explains of his creation. "From the cabinet and backbox to the side rails, lockdown bar, pinball legs, arcade-inspired buttons, plunger, and interchangeable playfields, MiniPin recreates the iconic elements of traditional pinball in miniature form." =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

The 39-year-old artist has developed a unique technique that turns natural clay into paint, using his background in science and his passion for art. o ⚓ Ian Dunt ☛ Nostalgia_is_a_terrible_drug_-_by_Ian_Dunt_-_Striking 13⠀⇛ Why is that? What is he doing that makes him such a perfect emblem for our time? I don’t think it’s about his themes, which are hazy, lightly held and rarely discussed. I think it is his technique. What do you hear when you catch an interview with Nolan? What are they discussing? The technique. Specifically, his preference for analogue: How to wield a massive IMAX camera. Why he won’t email scripts, but insists people read them in person. Why he opts for film. Why he has an aversion to digital effects. o ⚓ Joel Chrono ☛ About_books_and_their_translations⠀⇛ Still, I don’t want to think about that, it just came up on its own. For now I’ll just focus on reading a bunch of those old sci-fi on my digital and physical library, and perhaps wether original or translated, know that there is people with heart who have put effort into making these works accesible, and people who are still eager to read and talk about these works with enthusiasm to this day. o ⚓ Derek Thompson ☛ The_9_Questions_I’m_Obsessed_With_Right_Now:_AI, Politics,_Movies,_Drugs,_and_Western_Civilization⠀⇛ Why are socialism, marijuana, and original blockbusters ascendant? Where do "Western values" come from? Why do modern people torture ourselves with comparison and guilt? o ⚓ Chris Enns ☛ Following_a_Link⠀⇛ I’ve followed a few different rabbit trails of links into communities and I thought it’d be interesting to post some of the trails here for future navigators of the world wide web. I’m not going to do a lot of explaining of what each thing is, that’s for you to discover if you want by clicking the links. o ⚓ Antonio Santos ☛ The_small,_almost_invisible,_really_important things⠀⇛ Just like we don’t need to think about those small, almost invisible important things. That is, until something stops working or doesn’t feel right. o § Science / Mathematics / Computer Science⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] Space ☛ Tycho_Brahe:_Life,_accomplishments_and peculiar_death⠀⇛ At his observatory, Brahe kept meticulous observations of the heavens. While most astronomers only focused on observing heavenly bodies at specific, unusual points in their orbits, Brahe intently tracked them in their entire visible orbit across the sky, creating the most precise observations made at the time. Some of his measurements were accurate to half an arc minute, which is especially admirable given that they were all made before the advent of the telescope. # ⚓ Max Bernstein ☛ A_quick_look_at_zero-knowledge_proofs⠀⇛ The idea of a zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) is that there are two parties: the prover and the verifier. The prover asserts that it has a solution to a (generally NP-complete) problem. The prover can convince the verifier of this without sharing the actual solution to the problem. The canonical example is 3-coloring a graph. That is, the prover asserts that, for a given (shared) graph, it has a valid 3-coloring. It wants to convince the verifier of this without revealing the actual color assignment. # ⚓ John D Cook ☛ How_not_to_calculate_cosine⠀⇛ Calculus professors with no experience in numerical computing will tell students that computers calculate trig functions with power series. They don’t. I worked on the implementation of trig functions in hardware, and I can assure you we didn’t just use power series. Power series are an excellent way to calculate functions near the center of the series, such as computing sine for small angles. But the further you get from the center, the less useful power series are. # ⚓ John D Cook ☛ Calculating_the_cosine_of_numbers_outside_the range_of_floats⠀⇛ The key thing that makes this possible is that the least significant digits of n only affect the least significant digits of log(n). In the calculation above I kept the first 16 digits of n. Python couldn’t make use of any more digits, and had no need of any more digits, in order to produce the logarithm to machine precision. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ World's_Biggest_Glowing_Vertebrate_May_Be Using_Its_Own_Light_as_a_Hunting_Tool⠀⇛ A shark... with headlights? # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ The_Opposite_of_Déjà_Vu_Exists_And_It's Even_Stranger⠀⇛ It's uncanny. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ A_Biological_Mechanism_Linking_Childhood Trauma_to_Future_Health_Has_Been_Discovered⠀⇛ It leaves us more vulnerable in the future. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ The_Real_Reason_Group_Decisions_Beat_Solo Ones_(Hint:_It's_Not_Averaging)⠀⇛ More ideas aren't always better... # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Wild_Boars_in_Brazil_Are_Spreading Antibiotic-Resistant_Bacteria,_Scientists_Warn⠀⇛ More than 50% tested revealed a multidrug-resistant infection. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Malaria's_Drug_Resistance_Is_Becoming Alarmingly_Sophisticated,_Study_Finds⠀⇛ An early warning. o § Career/Education⠀➾ # ⚓ The Conversation ☛ Museums_face_growing_cyber_threats_but security_remains_an_afterthought⠀⇛ The likely thinking of cultural institutions is that to remain financially resilient they have to spend more on money-making attractions, like artwork and exhibitions. However, this means that security sometimes becomes a low priority – less money is spent and less thought given to the importance of keeping it up to date. However, the financial loss from theft affects financial resilience by eroding emergency cash reserves and driving up insurance premiums. As the Louvre’s audit shows, the museum could have perhaps avoided the theft had it taken its findings more seriously. # ⚓ Zachary Kai ☛ People_and_Blogs:_Christian⠀⇛ Most of what I do online comes back to the same few interests: making useful things, learning in public, and trying to keep some version of the old, weird, personal web alive. # ⚓ Becky Spratford ☛ RA_for_All:_NYT_Ranks_the_50_Best Thrillers_of_the_Century_so_Far_(and_I_was_honored_to_be_one of_the_experts_they_asked)⠀⇛ Anyone who was working in publishing or working with readers in any way in 2012 understood what happened. The Psychological thriller changes from being driven by men and serial killer characters like Hannibal Lecter to the female driven, domestic suspense, fueled by the unreliable narrator that we have now. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Scientist_says_RAM_pricing_has_risen_to normalized_2007_levels,_AI_shortage_undid_20_years_of progress_in_a_matter_of_months_—_memory_prices_had_been falling_exponentially_for_decades⠀⇛ Software performance expert, scientist, and GitHub developer Daniel Lemire compared historical computer memory prices and showed that decades of falling prices were undone in just a matter of months because of the massive demand for HBM. According to his X post, this event is a historical anomaly, and he cannot think of an instance where technology hardware prices reverted to levels from decades before. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Chernobyl’s_Robots,_Or_The_Hackathon_From_Hell⠀⇛ When the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant’s #4 reactor experienced an extreme criticality event on that infamous day in 1986, the resulting steam explosion and lack of any kind of containment building meant that parts of the core were scattered throughout the site. In an extensive update to the original 2023 video, the [Chornobyl Family] covers the mad scramble to design robots to perform on-the-ground measurements, and ultimately remove all this debris for safe disposal. # ⚓ Jeff Geerling ☛ I'm_excited_for_Intel_after_testing_the_XPS 13⠀⇛ Linux support is specifically not advertised, but I was able to get all hardware functionality working in Fedora 44, including WiFi 7 (I had to plug in a USB Ethernet adapter temporarily to run dnf upgrade) # § Devices/Embedded⠀➾ # ⚓ The Record ☛ Water_utilities_group_partners_with_DEF CON_offshoot_for_Water_Watch_Center⠀⇛ The Water Watch Center (WWC) will provide direct support to smaller water utilities to mitigate attacks, including the recent string of incidents that have impacted water systems in at least 12 states. The program will see five managed detection and response providers work with DEF CON Franklin and the NRWA to offer cyber services for water utilities serving fewer than 10,000 people. There are over 50,000 community water systems across the U.S. and 91% of them serve fewer than 10,000 people. # § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ Leon Mika ☛ Native_Apps_Are_Not_The_Problem⠀⇛ We’re not going back to a world where app development is scarce (if such a world ever existed). App development is just going to get easier from here on out. It’s high time for the app stores to evolve with the times. # ⚓ Bill Bennett ☛ NZ_Direct-to-Cell_Satellite Revolution:_Gartner_Analysis⠀⇛ While mobile networks cover roughly 98 percent of New Zealand's population, they only reach about 50 percent of the landmass. Unlike Australia's metro-centric population, New Zealand has far more people living outside major urban centres. This partly explains low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites have seen record per-capita uptake here. For mobile operators, direct-to-device (D2D) solves a specific problem. o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ Federal News Network ☛ Retirement_doesn’t_make_your_health benefits_simpler._It_makes_them_more_complicated⠀⇛ On this episode of Fed Thread, we look at how federal employees can better prepare themselves for FEHB after retirement. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Video_Captures_Chaos_as_Earthquake_Strikes Japan_Hospital_Mid-Surgery⠀⇛ Footage shows doctors in Japan clinging to an operating table to protect a patient from the violent tremor. The surgery was completed successfully. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Kalshi_Defends_Plan_to_Bet_on_Outcomes_of Clinical_Trials⠀⇛ "How is this not just another type of 'death market' — like markets for war or assassination — that even Kalshi says it won’t abide?" # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Authorities_Alarmed_When_Person_With_Measles Spends_Entire_Day_Frolicking_Around_Universal_Studios⠀⇛ It's an extremely infectious virus — for people reckless enough not to get the shot. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ 33_Students_Treated_for_Deadly_Bacteria_Exposure When_Classroom_Experiment_Goes_Horribly_Wrong⠀⇛ They definitely earned some extra credit. # ⚓ NYPost ☛ North_Koreans_encouraged_to_eat_‘nutritious’_dog- meat_soup_during_sweltering_summer_heat⠀⇛ North Korean state media is promoting dog-meat soup for locals as a way to combat the sizzling, record- high temperatures currently plaguing parts of the country. o § Proprietary / SaaS⠀➾ # § So-Called 'Artificial Intelligence' ('AI') / LLM Slop / Plagiarism⠀➾ # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Better_Hope_You_Don’t_Need_an_Ambulance_in New_Orleans,_Because_the_City’s_911_Operators_Are_Now AI⠀⇛ Your house isn't just on fire — it's collapsing in real time. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Amazon_cracks_down_on_'CPU_waste' among_engineers_as_agentic_Hey_Hi_(AI)_crunch intensifies_—_CPU_demand_makes_low-utilization_EC2 instances_a_hot_commodity_[Updated]⠀⇛ Amazon Web Services is telling engineers to slow down on EC2 usage as it struggles to meet CPU capacity demand for external customers. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Roku_Unleashes_24/7_Hey_Hi_(AI)_Slop Channel⠀⇛ Just what the doctor ordered. # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Claude_Opus_5_mistakenly_deletes dev’s_entire_profile_directory_during_routine_backup, responds_with_'Sorry,_typo'_—_Hey_Hi_(AI)_tool_mistakes user's_home_directory_as_temporary_backup,_proceeds_to wipe_everything_to_undo_the_error⠀⇛ An Hey Hi (AI) agent got confused with file path conventions and mistakenly deleted its user's entire profile folder. Claude Opus 5 apologized to the user, who called it "the funniest and most painful Hey Hi (AI) moment I've had." # ⚓ Remi Collet ☛ Remi_Collet:_🚫_No_AI⠀⇛ Because artificial intelligence competes with humans, especially for our planet’s resources, I’ve chosen my side: the human. # § Social Control Media⠀➾ # ⚓ Digital Music News ☛ Federal_Judge_Partially_Tosses Designer_Shoe_Warehouse’s_Declaratory_Judgment Complaint_Against_Sony_Music_—_Wider_Social_Media Infringement_Battle_Rages_On⠀⇛ A year and change later, a federal judge has partially dismissed the declaratory judgment complaint filed by Designer Shoe Warehouse (DSW) against Sony Music, Universal Music, and BMG. However, the wider copyright monopoly infringement battle, complete with multiple intensifying actions, is raging on. # ⚓ France24 ☛ Meta_fined_in_child_safety_case⠀⇛ A US state court has ordered Meta to pay $567 million and restrict some Facebook (Farcebook) and Instagram features for children, in what is being described as the largest child-safety ruling against the company. The court found that Meta had created a “public nuisance” that endangered young users.

The audit, seen by PassBlue and FRANCE 24, reveals UN misgivings about allowing Palantir to process data for the world’s largest humanitarian supply chain. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ The Strategist ☛ The_drone_age_demands_a_new_theory_of military_protection⠀⇛ Military protection has never existed simply to keep soldiers alive or platforms intact. # ⚓ The Strategist ☛ The_real_Thucydides_trap_is_inside_Western tech⠀⇛ The following is a speech delivered by ASPI executive director Justin Bassi at the Australian Defence Science, Technology and Research Summit, held in Adelaide from 4 to 6 August 2026. # ⚓ LRT ☛ Tax_and_social_security_offices_keep_serving_in Russian,_as_Vilnius_scales_back_its_use⠀⇛ Vilnius City Council recently announced it will stop accepting requests and complaints from residents in Russian – part of a broader push to reduce the language's role in public life since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. But other state institutions say they have no plans to follow suit just yet. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ US_Senate_Passes_Russia_Sanctions_Bill_Targeting Moscow's_Energy_Revenues⠀⇛ The US Senate on August 7 overwhelmingly approved legislation aimed at tightening economic pressure on Russia over its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ She_Is_Russia’s_Richest_Woman._Her Business_Empire_Is_Going_Up_in_Flames.⠀⇛ As Ukraine repeatedly strikes warehouses of the e- commerce site Wildberries, Tatyana Kim, its billionaire co-founder, faces her biggest test yet. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ What_to_Know_About_Wildberries,_the Company_in_Ukraine’s_Cross_Hairs⠀⇛ Ukrainian drones have increasingly targeted warehouses belonging to Wildberries, which many Russians rely on as the country’s largest e- commerce business. # ⚓ Latvia ☛ Jokes_and_art_or_racism:_blurred_lines_in_Latvia⠀⇛ A controversial parade at a festival has recently sparked the issue of racism in Latvia anew.

The country's Minister of the Economy and Innovation has asked the Financial Crime Investigation Service (FNTT) to determine whether newly opened Ola stores are linked to sanctioned Russian business interests and represent an attempt to circumvent EU sanctions. # ⚓ LRT ☛ Lithuanian_man_detained_after_driving_through_closed border_checkpoint_into_Russia⠀⇛ A Lithuanian man drove through barriers at a closed border checkpoint with Russia and briefly crossed the state border on foot last month before being detained, authorities said Friday. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Family_of_Former_U.S._Marine_Detained_in Russia_Says_He_Is_in_Serious_Condition⠀⇛ Robert Gilman, 32, is in “dissociative stupor,” an advocacy group said, and his family members say they are afraid for his life.

The Michigan Democratic Senate primary offers a revealing case study of the struggle between ideological conviction and electoral pragmatism. Ericovich argues that while progressive candidates have demonstrated increasing strength within Democratic primaries, particularly in urban and heavily Democratic constituencies, translating that energy into victory in competitive swing states remains a far greater challenge. He suggests that the Democratic Party's internal fragmentation may carry significant strategic consequences, potentially affecting not only the outcome in Michigan but also the party's broader prospects for controlling the U.S. Senate. # ⚓ Marcy Wheeler ☛ Harmeet_Dhillon’s_Goons_Spied_on_Megyn Kelly_to_Get_to_Don_Lemon⠀⇛ Georgia Fort and Don Lemon claim that after a Magistrate Judge challenged the government's effort to get their YouTube information back in February, DHS obtained some of the same information using a Custom summons. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Prosecutor_Sues_Justice_Dept._Over Dismissal_After_Right-Wing_Influencer’s_Claim⠀⇛ Will Rosenzweig joins a growing list of former prosecutors and federal agents who have gone to court to contest the purge of law enforcement deemed disloyal. # ⚓ Bridge Michigan ☛ Michigan_prisons_paid_millions_over inmate_deaths,_disability_discrimination⠀⇛ The Michigan Department of Corrections paid nearly $7 million to resolve 161 lawsuits and legal claims during fiscal year 2024-25, more than doubling its legal costs from the previous year despite fewer cases. o § Censorship/Free Speech⠀➾ # ⚓ MIT Technology Review ☛ How_ideas_of_a_vast_censorship network_moved_from_the_online_fringe_to_Convicted_Felon policy⠀⇛ This article was produced in partnership with Type Investigations, with support from the Wayne Barrett Project.

But this comparison neglects how much more unequal the US is and how much more money we burn in our irrational private health care system. # ⚓ But she's a girl... ☛ The_waiting_room⠀⇛ Walking in to the room was an overwhelming experience. The triage nurses in the lobby of the Accident and Emergency unit took a few brief details then asked us to check in using the iPads on the wall just around the corner. As we turned the corner, it hit us that the waiting room was absolutely full. All the seats were taken, and people leaned against the walls and in the passageways, so that they had to shift every time someone went past. It was around 23:30 on a Tuesday. At this point, we had no idea that we would still be here nine hours later. o § Proprietary / SaaS⠀➾ # ⚓ GO Media ☛ Id_Software_Dev_Says_Xbox_Doesn’t_‘Understand Art’_And_That_After_Layoffs_It_Is_‘Impossible’_To_Make_Big Games_Like_Doom:_The_Dark_Ages⠀⇛ Chris Hays, id Software’s lead services programmer, has been at the company for over 15 years. And he’s one of the devs who remains at the studio behind Doom following Xbox’s massive layoffs in July. While Xbox and studio leadership claim that id can ship a game like Doom (2016) again with fewer people, Hays disagrees, and claims Microsoft doesn’t “understand art” or video games. In a recent interview with the Well Played podcast, Hays openly talked about the status of id Software following the recent layoffs. And the studio veteran who has worked on games like Doom Eternal and Doom: The Dark Ages didn’t hold back about how he feels regarding Xbox, the layoffs, and Game Pass. # ⚓ Mark Phillips ☛ Is_Apple's_privacy_line_bullshit?⠀⇛ Today I find iPadOS 26 is even worse than I thought, with UI glitches and poor handling of the simplest of things taken for granted for years (I’ve found rotation from landscape to portrait messes up the screen paint of Messages, for example). # § So-Called 'Artificial Intelligence' ('AI') / LLM Slop / Plagiarism⠀➾ # ⚓ Jacobin Magazine ☛ Hollywood_Is_Losing_Not_Just_Jobs but_Entire_Lineages⠀⇛ Runaway production isn’t just costing Hollywood jobs. It’s severing the intergenerational chains along which film crafts are passed down, replacing an industry town’s living inheritance with a dislocated workforce that must always start from scratch. # ⚓ Wired ☛ Why_Normal_People_Aren’t_Using_AI_Agents⠀⇛ “I just have not heard a single person outside of the tech community talk about an agent that they use,” Miller says. “As excited and optimistic as we as an industry may be about the frontier and recursive self- improvement, it's worth pausing and just saying, ‘Huh, what?’” # ⚓ Stephen Smith ☛ International_Competition_in_the_AI Space⠀⇛ In the meantime, people are scared as scientists used AI to create 16 new viruses from scratch, not found in nature. What could go wrong? Sure, these are being used to manufacture drugs and cure diseases, but what unforeseen interactions could happen if these escape into the wild? What will happen if they escape and start to rapidly mutate? What happens when Russia starts to do this? # ⚓ Ian Duncan ☛ Getting_Freaky_in_the_Age_of_AI⠀⇛ At the relatively benign end of the spectrum, you have Aladdin. Aladdin gets cosmic power, but he uses the Genie strategically— to handle the mundane, to test small ideas, and to eliminate friction— while reserving his own human agency for the actual problem- solving. He gets more or less what he asks for, without malice. In the middle, you have the classic Monkey’s Paw. You get what you asked for, but not what you intended. You wish for a million dollars, your relative dies in a horrible accident, and you get the life insurance payout. The wish is literal, but the intent is lost. And then, at the darkest end of the spectrum, you have deals with devils, or movies like Curry Barker’s 2025 horror film Obsession. In the film, a guy buys a supernatural novelty toy and wishes that the girl he likes would love him more than anyone in the world. The toy grants the wish, but it does so in a way that feels seemingly, intentionally malicious. He gets his wish, but she becomes a psychotic, homicidal stalker who feeds him his dead cat. The wish fulfills the letter of the law in the most punishing, horrifying way possible. # ⚓ Bitdefender ☛ Apple's_bug_bounty_program_is_drowning in_so_much_AI_slop,_it_is_in_danger_of_missing_serious exploits⠀⇛ Unlike traditional spam, AI-generated bug reports include code which may be syntactically correct, references to genuine API calls, and plausible-sounding technical explanations of what is occurring. All of that could take an Apple engineer hours of time, configuring test environments, attempting to replicate flaws, only to ultimately verify that a flaw may not actually exist. # ⚓ Ars Technica ☛ Google_Earth_risked_ruin_with retracted_AI_tool_for_making_fake_satellite_pics⠀⇛ That possibility deeply alarmed researchers, who often use Google Earth to help verify images and videos of locations at a time when AI-generated misinformation and disinformation have become rampant online. They showed how the new feature could simplify the process of creating false scenarios overlaid on Google Earth’s photorealistic imagery. # ⚓ Alcides Fonseca ☛ A_new_model_for_source_control⠀⇛ Despite these two limitations, git already provides the solution for agents: git is distributed and you can have a master repo for your company, one semi-master repo for your team, one repo for yourself, and many different repos for each of your agents. You can push changes from any repo to another, you do not have to go through the centralized Github/Gitlab/Gitea instance! # ⚓ Pivot to AI ☛ The_AI_doomsday_cult_recruits_social media_influencers⠀⇛ All this is not just one lone weirdo running tryouts for her cult in some way that’s nothing to do with the rest of the subculture. The event was held at Lighthaven and it was funded by the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, the AI doomsday home base of Eliezer Yudkowsky, the guy who started all the AI doomsday stories that the AI bubble companies now use as marketing. Yudkowsky also coined the term “effective altruism”. As the effective altruism movement goes, neither Aella nor her event are fringe in the slightest. # ⚓ Rlang ☛ The_GIS_Research_Assistant_Job_Has Transformed⠀⇛ You see, my student enthusiastically launched his spatial analysis project with a heap of vibe coding in R. I quickly realized he understood very little of what his coding agent had done, and there was no way we could be sure the results were accurate. Even in my 30 minute success story told above there were AI mistakes I had to check and fix. A big one was a silly duplicate correction for fraction -> percentage that Claude made. So it had overestimated everything by a factor of 100. # ⚓ 1Password ☛ Off-by-1_Labs_Research:_AI-generated vulnerability_patches_require_human_review_| 1Password⠀⇛ We studied what happens when Large Language Models (LLMs) generate vulnerability patches for recently disclosed, complex vulnerabilities. Our data shows that LLMs produce Fix-Like Artifacts with Embedded Defects (FLAWED) 53.9% of the time when complex patches are required. # § Social Control Media⠀➾ # ⚓ Salon ☛ The_end_of_looking_away_from_violence_on social_media⠀⇛ The twin forces of cellphone footage and instantaneous social posting have long cultivated what is now understood to be a society-wide problem: the separation between the reality unfurling mere feet in front of us and the filter provided by electronic screens and lenses. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ Meta_Ordered_to_Pay_$567_Million Fine_by_New_Mexico_Judge⠀⇛ The ruling, issued late Thursday, was in addition to $375 million that Meta was ordered to pay in the same case in March, when a jury found that the company misled users about the safety of its platforms and enabled the sexual exploitation of young people. # ⚓ Nick Heer ☛ Marketers_Are_Hoping_Brand_Mentions_on Reddit_Will_Influence_Chatbots⠀⇛ Sato interviewed Mike Moschella, director of analytics at marketing firm DKC, about the wisdom of the crowds at Reddit and Wikipedia: [...] # ⚓ Numeric Citizen ☛ Any_lessons_from_EchoFeed's closure?_—_Numeric_Citizen_Blog⠀⇛ What can I learn from the demise of EchoFeed? Earlier this year, when I heard about this service, I looked into it to see if it could be useful. It wasn’t, thanks to Micro.blog’s ability to cross-post to Bluesky, Mastodon and more. Plus, at first it looked like an experiment more than anything else. I didn’t know EchoFeed’s long-term goals. I was on the breaks. # ⚓ Nick Heer ☛ EchoFeed_is_Shutting_Down⠀⇛ But the reasons Knight gives for shutting it down are completely understandable. Trying to manage this kind of service with, say, hundreds of normal users would probably be challenging; with lots of abusive users, too, it sounds like a nightmare. # ⚓ Matthew Brunelle ☛ YouTube's_New_Programs_to Encourage_Binge_Watching⠀⇛ The "in conjunction with YouTube" part is what set off the red flag for me. YouTube does this kind of special relationship with big channels all the time, but they are tight lipped about the process. Getting to see behind the curtain is important because it helps us understand how YouTube tries to suck viewers in and how to defend against it. # ⚓ Ava ☛ seeing_the_person_behind_the_piece⠀⇛ And when this type of person reads my posts, it feels like they do so with tunnel vision, with completely disregarding anything that doesn’t fit into how they see themselves and their own situation. They just wanna plunder my posts for parts that fit enough, so they can plaster it across their feeds as something that represents them, and are mad when there is something in there that is too different from their experience, something they wouldn’t co-sign… and therefore just ignore it or dismiss it, or accuse me of lying. # ⚓ ABC ☛ Facebook_is_paying_controversial_creators_to produce_rage-bait_content⠀⇛ An ABC NEWS Verify investigation has found Facebook's parent company, Meta, is directly paying several controversial content creators including a white nationalist with Neo-Nazi links and a prominent anti-vaxxer. # ⚓ NPR ☛ Court_orders_Instagram_and_Facebook's_Meta_to pay_$567M_to_address_kids'_mental_health_online⠀⇛ The new penalty is in addition to the $375 million in civil penalties that jurors ordered against Meta in March after determining the company knowingly harmed children's mental health and concealed what it knew about child sexual exploitation on its platforms. In the second phase, prosecutors asked the judge to impose fundamental changes at Meta aimed at reining in addictive features, improving age verification and preventing child sexual exploitation through default privacy settings and closer oversight. # § Windows TCO / Windows Bot Nets⠀➾ # ⚓ Vox ☛ [Crackers]_just_broke_into_America’s_tap_water. How_scared_should_you_be?⠀⇛ At least a dozen states have been affected by the attack, which briefly led to a flurry of small-town service disruptions, boil-water notices, and local flooding. Water wells, dams, sewers, and pipelines are some of America’s oldest and creakiest pieces of infrastructure, built long before the internet existed, and certainly long before AI made [cracking] much easier. While you may assume most [crackers] are in it for the money or for data, some have targeted critical infrastructure like water systems or energy grids in ploys for control or disruption — or worse still, as acts of war. And, as last week’s attacks show, the nation’s water system is woefully unprepared. But how worried should you be that the very infrastructure that keeps our water taps running is, apparently, [crackable]? # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ Despite_federal_warnings, thousands_of_U.S._industrial_controllers_used_in_water systems_remain_exposed_online⠀⇛ The scan, run through the Shodan search engine Monday, found that 2,844 of the exposed controllers (65%) were in the United States. o § Security⠀➾ # § Integrity/Availability/Authenticity⠀➾ # ⚓ Carl Schwan ☛ What's_new_with_SAML_support_in Nextcloud⠀⇛ Several months ago, as part of my internal move to the “IdP” team at Nextcloud, I started to co-maintain the user_saml application. This application allows Nextcloud users to implement single sign on with the SAML and Kerberos protocol. This protocol is based on XML and is mostly used in combination with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), Microsoft Entra ID, Authentik, Okta, Google Workspace and more. # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ Palantir_Paid_No_Federal_Income_Tax._Its Global_Tax_Rate_Is_Just_1.4_Percent.⠀⇛ The study, Who Pays for the Surveillance State?, was written by the Center for International Corporate Tax Accountability and Research (CICTAR) in partnership with the European Federation of Public Services Unions. The report “examines how Palantir is capturing ever-larger government contracts while paying no US federal corporate income tax and shifting much of its foreign profits back to the US, avoiding taxes in Europe.” # ⚓ Wired ☛ Hackers_Stalked_Me_by_Hijacking_a_Smartwatch for_Kids⠀⇛ When the reporter arrived at WIRED’s Manhattan headquarters half an hour later, Stykas hijacked a feature in the watch that allowed him to silently take a photo from its camera, capturing the moment when the reporter stepped into an elevator. After a few minutes, he took another snap of the reporter at his desk, then used a different feature to pick up audio from the watch’s microphone, transmitting it to another researcher, Felipe Solferini, who listened as the reporter’s coworker described his weekend visit to an art exhibition. At no point did the watch show any sign that it was listening, taking photos, or otherwise being hacked. # ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ ICE_Is_Buying_Access_to_Credit_Card Records⠀⇛ Through data brokers, ICE is buying the information you provided to open a credit card. # ⚓ Fortra LLC ☛ Beware_Cut-Price_AI_Services_that_Read Your_Every_Word⠀⇛ You need to remember this. Any AI prompts you enter via this service travel first to Poison Claude's servers, which then are forwarded to the real Claude, and then the answer is passed back. So Poison Claude can see exactly what you typed. So everything you type, every question you ask, every piece of code you paste in, every document you share, is seen by Poison Claude. And who knows what Poison Claude might they do with it. Maybe they will accidentally leak it, or sell it? Maybe they will harvest whatever useful business information, API keys, passwords, or sensitive personal data happens to float past their noses? Remember, Poison Claude had no qualms about creating the fraudulent accounts to abuse Amazon's generosity. Can you feel confident that they will care about your privacy and security? We already know that their security is less than perfect. Okta's researchers found an exposed API endpoint for Poison Claude which revealed it was running from a web hosting service in Mumbai, as well as some information about its paying customers. # ⚓ Yle ☛ Police_adding_surveillance_cameras_in_10_new Finnish_municipalities⠀⇛ Authorities already use police surveillance cameras in dozens of Finnish municipalities. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ Robert Reich ☛ The_Enshittification_of_Everything_(Part 2)⠀⇛ But as power and wealth have moved to the top in America (and, to a lesser degree, in other “rich” nations, almost everyone else — whether on the old right or the old left — has become disempowered and less secure. America’s huge middle class has become a small shadow of what it once was. The bottom 90 percent are struggling to make ends meet. The richest 10 percent account for a large and growing portion of all consumption. The top one-tenth of one percent holds an increasing portion of all wealth.

In this episode of “Movement Memos,” host Kelly Hayes talks with Native organizers Joseph White Eyes and Krystal Two Bulls about the struggle against data centers in Native communities. The conversation explores how the AI boom is advancing a new era of colonial extraction, and how Native communities are resisting land grabs and exploitative technologies. # ⚓ Western Water ☛ DATA_CENTERS_AND_WATER:_What_Congress found⠀⇛ A large data center can directly consume as much water each day as about 2,600 households. Arizona data centers may indirectly use Colorado River water delivered through the Central Arizona Project. # ⚓ Wired ☛ Two_Fossil_Fuel_Companies_Are_Betting_Big_on_Data Centers⠀⇛ Data centers are becoming “a big driver for both power and gas demand in the US,” says Ashish Sethia, the global head of commodities and energy at BloombergNEF. The group published a report last week that found that increased demand for natural gas by the mid-2030s, driven partly by data centers, means that the US would need to increase production by 36 percent. The boom could have big climate implications—even when considering projects that aren’t connected to the larger grid. Just five of the seven data- center-connected gas-fired power plants highlighted in these two companies’ second quarter results could emit as much as 21 million tons of greenhouse gases per year, according to their permit applications. That’s an amount roughly on par with the annual emissions of Guatemala, though the actual emissions may be lower than what’s on the permits. # § Energy/Transportation⠀➾ # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Protesters_haul_a_guillotine_to_city council_meeting_about_a_potential_AI_data_center, company_rep_cornered_by_protestors_—_‘_it_no_longer felt_safe_to_stay,’_developer_escorted_out_by_police⠀⇛ But because Verrus submitted its application before the moratorium announcement, the city is still processing its proposed data center project. That does not mean that it will get an immediate green light, though. It still has to go through an extensive permitting process, which includes technical studies, permit conditions, and enforceable agreements, among others. Oregon is one of the first states to enact a law that ensures large consumers, like data centers, pay for the majority of the grid upgrades needed to serve their needs. This allowed Portland General Electric, the state’s largest power provider, to increase the bills of users who used more than 20 MW by 30%, while also affecting a 1.3% cut in residential electricity costs. But despite this protection that stops ratepayers from price shocks, many people are still against data center projects in their towns and cities. # ⚓ Jim Grey ☛ Changes_at_the_Walker_Motel⠀⇛ Plenty of hotels on bypassed US highways fell into disuse and disrepair. Many were ultimately demolished. But the Walker’s owners found a way forward, and turned their rooms into apartments. o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ Daniel Pocock ☛ Burnham-Clacton_Pier_mile_run_challenge, Nigel_Farage,_Count_Binface_&_the_rest⠀⇛ In earlier blog posts about my nomination in the Clacton by-election, I suggested that running for office should involve some real running. The incumbent candidate presents himself as a champion of the imperial units of measure and the contest to be the first person to run one mile under four minutes was a legendary grudge match between and Englishman and an Australian. # ⚓ Fabio Akita ☛ Why_a_Perfect_Digital_Election_Still_Wouldn't Be_Viable?⠀⇛ Many people conclude from this that the answer is digital elections, but with a different system. This article is a computer science exercise: what would a hypothetically perfect system look like? And, more importantly, the final conclusion: why even that perfect system would not be a viable option. One thing worth emphasizing before we start: the system I’m about to describe would require no secrecy from the government. No secret components, no secret processes, no locked rooms with credentialed people standing guard. Everything — the code, the data, the whole structure — could be 100% open, accessible to anyone, no restrictions whatsoever. And it would still be possible to prove, mathematically, that fraud is impossible. It’s the exact opposite of the current model, where trust is born out of secrecy. # ⚓ European Commission ☛ Open_Source_Observatory_Newsletter⠀⇛ The open source model is a natural fit for modern Europe. Across the continent, individuals, experts, and public officials join forces to advance technology for the common good. What could be more European than that? This unique mesh of vertical, horizontal, and diagonal collaboration creates a resilient fabric of technological solutions that underpins and strengthens the digitalisation of the European public sector. In this month’s OSOR newsletter, we showcase prime examples of how cross-border collaboration delivers tangible results. Germany’s healthcare system is set to adopt an open source communication platform built on openDesk, a collaboration suite developed by the German government. When people’s lives depend on the code, the software must meet the highest standards. As Alexander Smolianitski, head of open source products at ZenDiS, explains, open source provides the flexibility needed to meet these requirements. The openDesk platform has already grown beyond Germany, forging partnerships with the Netherlands and France. # § So-called 'FSFE'⠀➾ # ⚓ FSFE ☛ 2026-08-03_[Older]_A_quarter-century_of Software_Freedom:_the_FSFE_turns_25 [Ed: Fake 'FSF' turns 25]⠀⇛ # § Misinformation/Disinformation/Propaganda⠀➾ # ⚓ The Conversation ☛ AI_is_making_disinformation_harder to_spot_–_but_we’ve_found_a_new_way_to_catch_it⠀⇛ Until recently, identifying malicious accounts was often quite straightforward. Many campaigns relied on people writing in a second language. So, posts sometimes contained grammatical mistakes or unusual word choices. Detection systems could look for these patterns in the language used. But generative AI has changed that. AI systems can now produce fluent, natural- sounding text that is much harder to distinguish from human writing. For example, patterns like use of em-dashes and the word “delve” used to be telltale signs of a text being generated by AI. But AIs are adapting, and these older systems are increasingly ineffective. # ⚓ Chuck Carroll ☛ Why_We_Believe_in_the_Preposterous⠀⇛ We all have that friend or family member that believes in the most ludicrous things, convinced of a conspiracy that doesn't fit into the reality shared by the rest of us. I don't think an empirical mindset is the default for humans, but is something that's built over time, usually through education (though I wonder how much of our bullshit- detector calibration arrives with us at birth). o § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ # ⚓ Citizen Lab ☛ Inside_the_Fake_Copyright_Racket_Silencing News_Outlets⠀⇛ Journalists and civil society are increasingly being silenced by accusations of copyright infringement, says senior researcher Alberto Fittarelli in a report by the OCCRP. Unlike bot comments, falsely reporting videos for copyright infringement is “virtually invisible,” and leaves the burden of proof on victims to challenge accusations. These attacks represent a “global threat to civil society,” says Fittarelli. # ⚓ Hamilton Nolan ☛ Paying_for_News_Is_Cheaper_Than_Not_Having It⠀⇛ Many people have a vague sense that there is less professional journalism than there used to be. But they may not understand quite how much of a crisis we’re in, or how it is going to make their own lives worse. This chart, from a recent Justin Fox column at Bloomberg, is one clarifying way to see where we are: [...] o § Civil Rights / Policing / Accessibility⠀➾ # ⚓ Jacobin Magazine ☛ Unions_Can_Save_Tech_Workers_and_Tech Work⠀⇛ Two University of California tech workers explain their unionization process — and how unions can help recapture the original promise of tech being used to better people’s lives rather than make the worst people in the world ever richer. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ The_Diarrhea_Lettuce_Company_Has_Been_Linked_to Forced_Labor⠀⇛ When the United States ratified the 13th amendment in 1865, federal lawmakers very nearly outlawed slavery for good — but not entirely. Tucked within arguably the most important corner of the US constitution is a massive caveat: “neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States” (emphasis added.) # ⚓ Rogue ☛ Lettuce_isn’t_the_only_shitty_thing_about_Taylor Farms⠀⇛ Today, both state-owned industries (like the DMV) and private companies can hire (“hire”) prisoners. And they get tax credits for doing so. Prison labor produces goods and services worth in excess of $11 billion a year while the inmates are paid somewhere between literally nothing and pennies per hour. And, fun fact, prison labor is exempt from OSHA, so there’s no required training or safety regulations. o § Internet Policy/Net Neutrality⠀➾ # ⚓ Inside Towers ☛ FCC_Proposes_Expanding_D2D_to_Unlicensed Wireless_Devices⠀⇛ UPDATE The FCC wants to see if direct-to-device (D2D) connectivity can work in unlicensed spectrum as well as it does using licensed bands. The agency voted 3-0 yesterday to begin a proceeding to explore that premise, potentially unlocking 200 MHz for unlicensed wireless devices to communicate with satellites. o § Digital Restrictions (DRM)⠀➾ # ⚓ Ruben Verweij ☛ Owning_media_again⠀⇛ This year, one of my aspirations is to rely less on the big streaming services for my entertainment. Why? Well, for one thing, if we give too much power to large corporations by getting overly attached to their services, that leads to monopolies, inequality and ultimately, democratic decline. How’s that for a positive opening? # ⚓ Nick Heer ☛ Digital-Only_Media_Is_a_Loss_for_Libraries, Too⠀⇛ If libraries are restricted from keeping working copies of digital media due to software restrictions, prohibitive costs, and legal concerns, people are going to look back a hundred or more years from now and wonder why we decided we no longer wanted to keep a cultural record. But for a beautiful moment in time, we created a lot of value for shareholders. o § Monopolies/Monopsonies⠀➾ # ⚓ Terry Godier ☛ Browsers_have_standards,_the_App_Store_has judgment_—_Terry_Godier⠀⇛ It occurs to me that the browser has standards and the App Store has judgment. On the web, if I build something that works within the standards, it works. Whether people use it is up to them. On iOS, there is another question entirely: whether Apple decides it should exist. # ⚓ John Gruber ☛ Daring_Fireball:_App_Store_Rejection_of_the Week:_Dark_Hours⠀⇛ But that’s not what happened at all. Godier proceeded through a series of escalations up to the App Review Board and the Review Board responded that they determined the original rejection was valid because, I shit you not, “We understand that the app includes a live tarot reading feature.” Which isn’t even about astrology. It’s straight out of Kafka. =============================================================================== Image source: Dragonfly_resting_on_a_branch,_sunbathing =============================================================================== * Retained:_The_Time_IBM's_Red_Hat_Tried_to_Hijack_or_Take_Offline_Site_of Critics,_Failed_on_All_Grounds_(Meritless_Action_Intended_to_Harass Critics) * Links_08/08/2026:_GAFAM_Colonialism_"Paved_Over_Protected_Wetlands",_Slop Companies_Hoard_Software_Patents_as_Debt_Soars_to_Trillions ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 5746 ➮ Generation completed at 02:49, i.e. 11 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
