✐ Facebook_Contributed_to_Death_of_Online_Journalism_and_What’s_Left_Online
Isn’t_Covering_Real_Facebook_Scandals⠀✐
Posted in Deception, Microsoft at 6:43 am by Dr. Roy Schestowitz
Summary: The demise of Facebook and other social control media (or the_World
Wide_Web_at_large) “won’t_be_televised”; to make matters worse, what prevails
on today’s Web is clickbait, gossip and SEO_noise
MY intention here is not to constantly bash the media, but it’s curious that
instead of finding actual news about Facebook I mostly find Facebook-connected
puff pieces and ridiculous gossip about a “fight” (two sociopaths looking to
distract from their commercial failure [2]).
“It’s a public holiday in the United States, so news is expected to be slow.”I
moreover worry that reputable news sites now publish cooking recipes as front
page news, resort to webspam (sometimes computer-generated spew), and the Web
is dominated by digital tabloids, not journalism. For instance, regarding
Facebook, Gizmodo [1-5] and Engadget [6] focus on “news” that’s more akin to
gossip, including empty claims of parental supervision, just as we noted_some
hours_ago_in_relation_to_TikTok. Gizmodo and Engadget also produced a lot of
Microsoft webspam earlier this year, faking excitement of hype for some chatbot
that’s still falsely marketed.
It’s a public holiday in the United States, so news is expected to be slow. We
continue to wonder aloud how to still pursue actual information and scientific
facts. We expect that later this month Microsoft will start another storm of
vapourware in the media, days or weeks ahead of mass layoffs being announced
again. They’re batching_it. It’s a PR tactic.
“Some (but not all) of the media/press layoffs are the fault of “Web giants”
(and no, “link tax” is not the solution!); it means that the very best/potent
critics of companies like Facebook no longer have sufficient capacity to do
so.”Speaking of layoffs, Facebook has had plenty of them recently. But the
official number of layoffs does not tell the full story. By forcing workers to
come back to the office (needlessly) Facebook convinced many workers to simply
resign. They won’t count as “layoffs”. This is an HR tactic that we’ve been
seeing in other companies too.
Some (but not all) of the media/press layoffs are the fault of “Web giants”
(and no, “link tax” is not the solution!); it means that the very best/potent
critics of companies like Facebook no longer have sufficient capacity to do so.
Facebook is hearsay and it has rapidly reduced the quality of media to its own
low standards (or even lower). █

Summary: While some_media_distracts_from_Microsoft’s_mass_layoffs (by focusing
on salaries), with plenty more to be announced later this month, there are also
high-profile_figures_stepping_down ahead of the_impending_storm (amid morale

Dealing With Scarcity of News
Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 4.0
http://techrights.org/videos/dried-up-news-cycles.webm
Summary: For a number of years in our_Git_forge we’ve developed Free software
tools to help identify and study news online; the problem is that over time
there’s less and less of it left online (old material goes offline and almost
nothing replaces it except chaff)
THE sheer bloat of Web pages is one prominent issue, but what about signal-to-
noise ratio? What about gossip instead (or in place) of “news”? What about so-
called ‘news deserts’ or ‘skeleton crews’ pretending to produce news but
instead spewing political propaganda, sometimes with machine-generated text?
What about SEO, clickbait, and “tweets” presented as news? As Ryan puts it in
IRC today, “the news is under pressure to sell “hits” and make it seem like
things are happening all the time.”
“There’s a mostly unspoken-about crisis and it involves the rotting of the Web.
We can see some symptoms of it, such as the demise of social control
networks.”Each week or each month — not just every year — we can easily spot
further reduction in news on the Web. This isn’t limited to news sites; blogs
are the same. This doesn’t affect just BSD- and GNU/Linux-centric writers. It
doesn’t affect just technology. It doesn’t affect just English language sites.
It’s universal.
A few years ago we started developing software tools to help us do Daily Links.
This investment of time always paid off and nowadays we’re able to find all
sorts of news of interest, including tips about Microsoft layoffs (not
typically covered by the media but instead covered up or drowned out of view).
There’s a mostly unspoken-about crisis and it involves the rotting of the Web.
We can see some symptoms of it, such as the demise of social control networks.

How “successful” can a business truly be when it cannot even become profitable?
The longer Twitter runs, the more money he loses.

o ⚓ CBC ☛ Canada_wants_to_woo_‘digital_nomads.’_Can_we_compete?⠀⇛
This strategy, part of broader effort to attract tech
talent, aims to promote the fact that people working
remotely for a foreign employer can spend up to six
months in Canada — and extend their time here, if they
get a job offer from a domestic employer while in the
country.

# ⚓ RTL ☛ “Giving_so_much_sugar_to_a_child_is_a_crime,”_says
CHL_expert⠀⇛
A CHL endocrinologist has issued a warning against
the growing consumption of sugar, but also against
the spread of a worrying disease among young people
known as “Nash”.
“We’re now seeing cases of cirrhosis linked to
excessive sugar consumption. It may not be widely
known, but it is very serious,” Dr Catherine Atlan
warned. The specialist in nutrition, diabetes and
endocrinology at the Centre Hospitalier de
Luxembourg said the practice of parents offering
bottles of sugary drinks to their children was on
the rise.
# ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ He’s_Saving_Addicts_By_the_Hundreds._Why_Is
His_Hometown_Fighting_Him?⠀⇛
If the Sacklers could’ve built themselves a doctor
from scratch, he’d have walked and talked a lot
like Procter. According to Dreamland, by Sam
Quinones, the definitive and indelible account of
the opioid epidemic in the heartland, Proctor was a
small-town physician with big-town tastes; he drove
a fleet of sports cars, owned a huge house, and
stacked his patients end to end, pushing Xanax and
short-haul narcotics. Then along came Oxy, touted
by the Sacklers to be tamper proof, time-released —
and safe. Less than one percent of users become
addicted, read the handouts doctors got from
Purdue’s salesmen. Procter’s practice told him
different. The line outside his door formed hours
before he opened, and new clients arrived by the
vanload. They were happy to pay him cash — $250 for
a three-minute visit — and to come back faithfully
once a month. Those scripts for Oxy 80s would pay
their own freight, reselling on the street, where a
bottle of 90 pills was worth thousands.
Procter hired ringers to handle the heavy traffic.
The doctors he brought in were bottom-feeding
hacks, but their licenses to prescribe narcotics
were valid in Ohio. Thus was the world’s first
“pain clinic” hatched. Soon, there were more than a
dozen in Portsmouth, serving a town of 19,000.
There was nothing cops could do but arrest the
addicts when they brazenly stole from Walmart to
feed their habit. “Doctors were protected by the
law,” says Jason Hedrick, the deputy chief of
Portsmouth’s police department. “Under the rules,
it was legal to prescribe for pain, so we couldn’t
touch those guys for years.”
# ⚓ University of Waterloo ☛ What’s_a_park_worth_to_the
economy?⠀⇛
“Dollars drive decisions,” said Wilson. “It can be
challenging for decision-makers to support the
development and expansion of urban parks because
there are competing land use pressures, and
municipalities are responsible for park operation
and maintenance costs. However, this study offers
concrete evidence that the health system savings
alone justify the financial investment.”
The study, The economic value of health benefits
associated with urban park investment, appears in
the International Journal of Environmental Research
and Public Health.
# ⚓ MDPI ☛ The_Economic_Value_of_Health_Benefits_Associated
with_Urban_Park_Investment⠀⇛
The allocation of resources towards the development
and enhancement of urban parks offers an effective
strategy for promoting and improving the health and
well-being of urban populations. Investments in
urban parks can result in a multitude of health
benefits. The increased usage of greenspace by park
users has been linked to positive physical and
mental health outcomes. Additionally, the expansion
of greenspace in urban areas can mitigate harmful
impacts from air pollutants, heat, noise, and
climate-related health risks. While the health
benefits attributed to urban parks and greenspaces
are well documented, few studies have measured the
economic value of these benefits. This study
applied a novel ecohealth economic valuation
framework to quantify and estimate the potential
economic value of health benefits attributed to the
development of a proposed park in the downtown core
of Peterborough, Canada. The results indicated that
development of the small urban park will result in
annual benefits of CAD 133,000 per year, including
CAD 109,877 in the avoided economic burden of
physical inactivity, CAD 23,084 in health savings
associated with improved mental health, and CAD 127
in health savings attributed to better air quality.
When including the economic value of higher life
satisfaction, the economic benefit is more than CAD
4 million per year. The study demonstrates the
value of developing and enhancing urban parks as a
strategy to improve population health and well-
being, and as a means of cost savings to the
medical system.
o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾
# ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ Despite_the_Hype,_Artificial
Intelligence_Remains_Inferior_to_the_Human_Brain⠀⇛
One way to answer that question would be to compare
AI to an analogue that is already available and
sentient, namely — the human brain. AI was designed
not only to mimic the human mind but also to out-
compute it in certain aspects. Apart from
presenting a paradigm shift, AI’s utility is not
entirely revolutionary. Rather, it is a
continuation of innovations past and present —
wheels, cranks, and windmills to surmount our
limbic limitations; bows, arrows and missiles to
counter remote threats; and the Internet to resolve
space-time constraints in (global) communications.
# ⚓ Hollywood Reporter ☛ Twitter_Introduces_“Temporary_Limits”
for_the_Number_of_Tweets_Users_Can_See_Daily⠀⇛
He elaborated on the measure in a separate tweet,
writing, “Several hundred organizations (maybe
more) were scraping Twitter data extremely
aggressively, to the point where it was affecting
the real user experience.” Adding, “What should we
do to stop that? I’m open to ideas.” It’s unclear
how long both of these temporary measures will
last.
# ⚓ India Times ☛ Australian_firm_sues_Twitter_for_$665,000_for
not_paying_bills⠀⇛
An Australian project management firm has filed a
lawsuit against Twitter Inc in a U.S. court seeking
cumulative payments of about A$1 million ($665,000)
over alleged non-payment of bills for work done in
four countries, court filings showed.
Sydney-based private company Facilitate Corp on
June 29 filed the suit in the United States
District Court for the Northern District Of
California claiming breach of contract over
Twitter’s failure to pay its invoices.

# ⚓ New York Times ☛ Cracking_Down_on_Dissent,_Russia
Seeds_a_Surveillance_Supply_Chain⠀⇛
The technologies have given the police and
Russia’s Federal Security Service, better
known as the F.S.B., access to a buffet of
snooping capabilities focused on the day-to-
day use of phones and websites. The tools
offer ways to track certain kinds of activity
on encrypted apps like WhatsApp and Signal,
monitor the locations of phones, identify
anonymous social media users and break into
people’s accounts, according to documents
from Russian surveillance providers obtained
by The New York Times, as well as security
experts, digital activists and a person
involved with the country’s digital
surveillance operations.
# ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Presence_Sensor_Locks_Computer_When_You
Step_Away⠀⇛
Having a computer that locks its screen after
a few minutes of inactivity is always a good
idea from a security standpoint, especially
in offices where there is a lot of foot
traffic. Even the five- or ten-minute
activity timers that are set on most
workstations aren’t really perfect solutions.
While ideally in these situations we’d all be
locking our screens manually when we get up,
that doesn’t always happen. The only way to
guarantee that this problem is solved is to
use something like this automatic workstation
locker.
# ⚓ Kev Quirk ☛ I’d_Love_a_Dumb_Phone,_But…⠀⇛
I’d love to replace my iPhone with a dumb
phone, but I don’t think it would ever work
in reality.
I was recently perusing Youtube (as I
sometimes do) and I came across a video about
the Punkt_MP02, which is effectively a dumb
phone that supports Signal.
§ Defence/Aggression⠀➾
* ⚓ RFERL ☛ Pakistan_Taliban_Claims_Attack_That_Killed_Four_Security
Officers⠀⇛
[...] Islamabad has charged that some of the attacks in
Pakistan have been organized inside Afghanistan.
* ⚓ Off Guardian ☛ DISCUSS:_Riots_across_France⠀⇛
Over the days these protests have spread city-to-city, getting
more violent and destructive as they go. So far over 1000 cars
have been burned in the street, and hundreds have been
arrested. Police stations in multiple cities were set ablaze. A
prison was attacked with fireworks. The largest public library
in Marseille also burned down.
[...]
In France there have been reported of rocket-propelled grenades
being used, or automatic rifles – allegedly looted from gun
stores. Looting is pervasive, with cars being rammed through
store windows.
[...]
In closing, I will say this: Staging nation wide riots would be
a good use of an army of undocumented fighting-age young men
you’ve smuggled into the country under the guise of “refugees”.
* ⚓ ANF News ☛ Russia_uses_Erdoğan_as_a_means_of_pressure⠀⇛
On 11 and 12 July, the NATO summit will take place in Vilnius,
Lithuania, in a confrontation with Russia. While the Western
military alliance focuses on unity, member state Turkey acts
between the power blocs Russia and NATO and tries to push
through its own expansionist interests. Journalist Yusuf
Karadaş, who writes for the left-wing newspaper Evrensel,
analyses the foreign policy of the newly elected old Turkish
government and its relationship with NATO and Russia in an
interview with ANF.
* ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ US_Legally_Owes_Nicaragua_Reparations,_but_Still_Refuses

37 years after a 1986 International Court of Justice ruling,
the United States still refuses to pay Nicaragua the
reparations it legally owes. Today, the Nicaraguan government
is demanding that the United Nations take action.
* ⚓ Scheerpost ☛ ‘We_Will_Not_Surrender’:_The_Extraordinary_Palestinians_of

Israel knows that crushing the Resistance in Jenin is not
possible. Though the far-right ministers in Benjamin
Netanyahu’s right-wing government are constantly making such a

fact, the impossibility of such a task.

Attitudes in Indonesia to the AUKUS partnership may have

to grapple with long-term stability concerns about the pact.
Mr Widodo will begin his three-day visit Australia on Monday as
part of bilateral talks which will likely be his last as

* ⚓ France24 ☛ 🔴_Live:_French_police_arrests_fall_sharply_to_157_during

A firefighter has died overnight outside of Paris trying to

European lawmakers issued a stark warning about the

summer, saying there is a pressing need to tackle issues
such as scarcity, food security and pollution.
Speaking at a European Parliament plenary session
entitled “The Water Crisis in Europe” on Thursday,
lawmakers called for increased action to preserve and
improve water resources, already affected by several
years of depleting groundwater levels as the climate
crisis continues to intensify.
Record-breaking temperatures through spring and a

region’s rivers and ski slopes, while protests have

Come summer, and water becomes a commodity as precious as

making it among the most water-stressed in the world. A
large number of Indians face high to extreme water
stress, according to a recent report by the government’s
policy think tank, the NITI Aayog. India’s dependence on
an increasingly erratic monsoon for its water
requirements increases this challenge. Climate change is
likely to exacerbate this pressure on water resources,
even as the frequency and intensity on floods and
droughts in the country increases.

the_Opposition⠀⇛
Psychological warfare, known by a number of names including
psychological operations and “psy ops,” is one of the oldest
tactics employed in wars. Such tactics are aimed at undermining
the enemy’s morale and its will to fight or resist and,
sometimes, at persuading the enemy to change its position.
Another kind of psy-ops is propaganda aimed at strengthening
the morale and the resolve of allies or one’s own forces.
Efforts to manipulate the minds of prisoners of war and
political prisoners are also part of psychological warfare.
In this two-part report, we examine how the Islamic Republic
wages psychological warfare against its opponents, which tools
it uses and whether it observes any red lines in its
psychological operations.

a similar productivity line, as did G/O Media Group when it
announced its own move to AI this week. As the logic generally
stands, AI systems can quickly aggregate information and take
away first-draft pressure; using them, then, must mean that
work goes faster, which means more content is produced.
Ultimately, the reasoning seems to go, more reader eyeballs are
harvested.

But, on pretty much every other issue in a Federal
Circuit patent appeal—whether it be transfer of venue,
the permissible scope of discovery, co-pending antitrust
or copyright claims, or anything else—the Federal Circuit
asserts no “law-saying” power. Instead, the Federal
Circuit—and district courts in cases that will be
appealed to the Federal Circuit—apply the precedent of
the regional circuit from which the case arose.

they suddenly shut down the site mid-June but a very
credible explanation has emerged in Canada. At the end of
May, a dozen companies including several Hollywood
studios, Netflix and Bell Media, launched legal action
against Soap2Day. The site shut down a day after being
served.

It has been an article of faith for some time that
“cool URLs don’t change”, as seen in (for example)
this 1998 W3C article written by Tim Berners-Lee
(you may have heard of him). Sadly, time has shown
that cool URLs do often change, and sometimes they
become inaccessible even when they don’t change.
But there is another part of this that I feel the
need to say out loud: cool URLs keep their
contents.
# ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ The_evolving_Unix_attitudes_on
handling_signals_in_your_code⠀⇛
To simplify the story, as Unix grew both programs
and the C library became more complex, with more
complex internal operations going on, and people
became less tolerant of flaky programs than they
might have been in a simple research operating
system. Eventually people began to think about
threads, and also about standardizing what signal
handlers could legally do as part of POSIX. This
resulted in the current situation where POSIX
signal handlers are very constrained in what they
can legally do, especially in threaded programs. To
simplify things, you can call some C library
functions (primarily to interact with the operating
system), or set a flag, and that’s about it. A
particular Unix may go beyond the POSIX
requirements to make other things safe in signal
handlers, and programs may break these requirements
and still get away with it most of the time, but
today there isn’t much you can safely do in a
signal handler within the C API.
# ⚓ James G ☛ How_to_Delete_a_Webmention⠀⇛
To delete a webmention, first remove a piece of
content from your website. Then, ensure the page
returns a 410 Gone HTTP status code. This status
code indicates that a piece of content has been
permanently removed a site. Then, resend a
Webmention to the URL to which you originally sent
the mention. If implemented, the Webmention
receiver used by the site to which you sent the
Webmention will acknowledge the 410 then delete the
mention from their database. For example,
webmention.io, a popular webmention receiver, has
implemented deletion support.

FormGridContainer makes it possible to make
the information exposed with MobileForm more
compact by putting multiple small cards in
the same row. The number of columns by
default is 3 on desktop unless the total
number of cards makes it more sensible only
to use 2 columns (e.g when there are only 2
or 4 elements).
On mobile the number of columns is reduced to
only 2.
This new component was initially made by
Rishi Kumar for the info grid that Tokodon,
with some further improvement from myself.
Here is how this looks with Tokodon.

redesigned Visible Columns options to allow
you to change default columns, as well as the
ability to display bytes size as a tooltip
for folder properties.
The Grid View has been improved as well for
the GNOME 45 desktop environment to indicate
starred files too. Moreover, it looks like
Nautilus will boost a more adaptive design
where the sidebar width will now adapt to the
window width and use a breakpoint for
adaptiveness.
* § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾
o § Reviews⠀➾
# ⚓ Distro Watch ☛ Review:_Kumander_Linux_1.0⠀⇛
It has been over a decade since I have used Windows
with any degree of regularity and two decades since
I used the operating system at home. For this
reason, I tend not to gravitate toward Linux
distributions which try to look or act like
Microsoft’s operating system. I don’t have anything
against them, but resembling Windows isn’t a
selling point for me the way it would be for
someone in the process of migrating from Windows to
Linux. Projects like Zorin OS, for example, I
admire as good options for Linux newcomers, but
they don’t hold a special appeal for me based on
their appearance.
With that said, I really liked Kumander’s user
interface. I liked the soft blue shades, I liked
the high contrast text fonts, I liked the lack of
distracting visual effects. I especially liked how
unusually fast and responsive the desktop was. Xfce
usually performs well, and it was running at top
speed during my trial, even in a virtual machine.
This allows Kumander to run circles around other
distributions I’ve used recently, such as Debian or
Ubuntu running GNOME and openSUSE running KDE
Plasma. In short, Kumander offers some of the
visual design benefits of Windows 7 while doing
away with the distracting visual effects, annoying
pop-ups, and mass of background services which
often make using that operating system unpleasant.
There are a few bugs. Kumander just hit its first
stable release so things like the task manager
shortcut not working or the timezone being set
improperly are small issues which are to be
expected. They’re small issues and not critical.
The one big issue I ran into was GNOME Software not
being to install updates and there not being an
easy way to fetch security patches from a GUI
application. This is a significant problem and will
hopefully be addressed with a dedicated update
manager or a fix for the software centre in the
next release.
There are some design choices I have mixed feelings
about. Having some configuration modules in the
application menu and others in the settings panel
feels a touch disorganized. Allowing users to run
admin tasks without a password feels on-brand for a
distribution trying to imitate Windows, but it’s
not a feature I feel good about. Then again, I’m
not the target audience and many users will
probably appreciate this characteristic.
For a first stable release, Kumander is doing a lot
of things well. It’s fast, stable, and achieves its
goal of being Windows like (in a good way) without
most of the negative aspects of using Microsoft’s
product. There are some issues to work out, but few
serious problems.

# ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ The_post-conference_lull⠀⇛
Ever get that sinking feeling after a huge event
you were hyped for is finally over? The worst for
me has been returning from AsiaBSDCon each year,
but this last weekend sure feels similar.
Over time you hold onto the fond memories and are
left with positive thoughts, but in the immediate
aftermath? It’s crushing.
I suppose it’s a way for your body to recognise
just how exuberant you must have felt, because the
difference is so stark. Had it been merely middling
or average, you’d probably feel little to no
difference.
o § SUSE/OpenSUSE⠀➾
# ⚓ Web Pro News ☛ SUSE_Takes_Swipe_At_Red_Hat,_Says_‘We_Are
All_Interdependent’⠀⇛
SUSE has weighed in on the Red Hat controversy,
setting itself apart and emphasizing its commitment
to open source.
Red Hat ignited a firestorm in late June with an
announcement that it would restrict access to Red
Hat Enterprise Linux source code to paying
customers. What’s more, the RHEL license prohibits
sharing or re-publishing the source code, something
that many are saying is a violation of the GPL.
Even if it is not a violation of the letter of the
law, it certainly is a violation of the spirit.
Some had wondered what stance SUSE would take since
the two companies share significant similarities.
Like Red Hat, SUSE sells support for an enterprise
Linux distro, SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE). SUSE
also relies on a community-driven distro as its
upstream source, openSUSE Tumbleweed, much like Red
Hat relies on Fedora. The two companies often share
similar legal perspectives, with SUSE quickly
following Red Hat’s lead last year when the latter
disabled GPU acceleration on AMD GPUs over patent
concerns.
# ⚓ IT Wire ☛ SUSE_commits_to_open-source_principles_in_wake_of
Red_Hat_move⠀⇛
In a_statement issued last Thursday, SUSE chief
technology officer Dr Thomas Di Giacomo said the
implications for vendors, developers and users from
Red Hat’s change in policy were significant, adding
that the move had caused concern within the open
source community.
# ⚓ TechTarget ☛ Reimaging,_innovating,_securing_cloud-native
at_SUSECON_2023⠀⇛
At SUSECON 2023, SUSE announced cloud-native AI-
based observability with Opni and alluded to more
announcements this year. Leaders emphasized cloud-
native tech and modernization.
o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾

# ⚓ [Old] Akseli Lahtinen ☛ My_thoughts_on_Flatpak_(that_nobody
asked_for)⠀⇛
If you’re starved for space, you may be better off
just uninstalling Flatpaks in general and then
using native packages, which (hopefully) your
distro manages for you so that the dependencies are
shared.
And no, saying “bro, just buy more space, bro” is
not an excuse. Not everyone has that luxury,
especially if they live in poorer countries and
such. It’s time to stop this silly notion of making
things bigger because “well we have so much space
now.”
# ⚓ Fudzilla ☛ Red_Hat_in_full_spin_mode_after_restrictions_on
Enterprise_Linux_sources⠀⇛
Red Hat is finding itself with a rebellion on its
hands after it announced it would limit access to
the Red Hat Enterprise Linux sources by putting
them behind the Red Hat Customer Portal and limited
to the CentOS Stream sources.
This move causes problems for free-of-cost
derivatives like AlmaLinux and has been greeted
with the same unbridled joy from open sourcers as
Tsar Putin had when he heard his former cook was
marching on Moscow.
Red Hat this week issued another blog post by Mike
McGrath, the VP of Core Platforms Engineering at
Red Hat. In the post, he talks up “Red Hat’s
commitment to open source” in which he said that
the outfit did make its hard work readily
accessible to non-customers.
# ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ 4_Ways_Red_Hat’s_Source_Code_Restrictions
Affect_Other_Distros⠀⇛
Early in June 2023, Red Hat announced that they
would limit access to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux
(RHEL) source code to paying customers. This change
caused a stir within the Linux community, as dozens
of downstream distributions rely on the public RHEL
source code to provide 1:1 compatibility.
With so many enormous changes looming, it’s easy to
wonder how they will affect downstream distros.
# ⚓ Open Source Security (Audio Show) ☛ Episode_382_–_Red_Hat,
you_were_the_chosen one!⠀⇛
Josh and Kurt talk about Red Hat closing up the
RHEL source code. Kurt and Josh both worked at Red
Hat in the past. This isn’t a show that bashes Red
Hat, and it’s not a show praising them. We take an
honest look at the past, present, and future of
Linux. There’s a lot to talk about in this one.
TL;DR, Red Hat was the chosen on, and we all feel
betrayed.

# ⚓ Ars Technica ☛ Red_Hat’s_new_source_code_policy_and_the
intense_pushback,_explained⠀⇛
When CentOS announced in 2020 that it was shutting
down its traditional “rebuild” of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (RHEL) to focus on its development
build, Stream, CentOS suggested the strategy
“removes confusion.” Red Hat, which largely
controlled CentOS by then, considered it “a
natural, inevitable next step.”
Last week, the IBM-owned Red Hat continued
“furthering the evolution of CentOS Stream” by
announcing that CentOS Stream would be “the sole
repository for public RHEL-related source code
releases,” with RHEL’s core code otherwise
restricted to a customer portal. (RHEL access is
free for individual developers and up to 16
servers, but that’s largely not the issue here).
Red Hat’s post was a rich example of burying the
lede and a decisive moment for many who follow the
tricky balance of Red Hat’s open source commitments
and service contract business. Here’s what
followed.

o § Debian Family⠀➾
# ⚓ Beta News ☛ Debian_12_Bookworm-based_Peppermint_OS_Linux
distribution_now_available⠀⇛
In the ever-evolving landscape of Linux
distributions, Peppermint OS, well-loved for its
unique combination of speed, elegance, and
simplicity, has unveiled a freshly minted update,
introducing a refined look and a bunch of enhanced
features. With a build date of July 1, 2023, this
Debian-based operating system will surely cool down
your summer with its delightful refinements.
The first striking change is the updated branding.
Peppermint OS has received a facelift in terms of
aesthetics with a new Plymouth design,
demonstrating the development team’s commitment to
continual improvement and modernization. This
uplift is a welcomed change, presenting users with
a fresh and visually appealing boot-up experience.
# ⚓ It’s FOSS ☛ PeppermintOS_Upgrade_Based_on_Debian_12_is
Here!⠀⇛
PeppermintOS can be regarded as one of the most
lightweight and flexible Linux distros.
Over the years, it has received a steady stream of
updates, and this time, a new major release
promises a host of improvements.
Let’s take a look at what it offers.
# ⚓ OMG! Linux ☛ Peppermint_OS_Update_Released_Based_on_Debian
12⠀⇛
Two versions of Peppermint OS are available to
download: one based on Debian, and one based
Devuan. Both use the Xfce desktop environment. This
post concerns the Debian edition updated on July 1,
2023.
# ⚓ PeppermintOS ☛ Peppermint_OS_(Debian)_Release⠀⇛
The Peppermint team would like to announce that we
have released our Debian(bookworm) base. You can
download the new files from here.
o § Canonical/Ubuntu Family⠀➾
# ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Ubuntu_23.10’s_New_Software_App_Will_Demote
DEBs_(Apparently)⠀⇛
Don’t get too excited; the new store is one you’ve
heard about before (if you read this site, at
least). It’s the community-created Flutter software
hub I wrote about last year, which Ubuntu devs
later expressed interest in making official — and
thus did.
A couple of interesting — and potentially
controversial — things planned for the first
official incarnation of the tool were revealed
recently so I figured I’d ferry along word.
o § Devices/Embedded⠀➾
# ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ Geniatech_SoM_integrates_Rockchip_RK3588
Octa-core_processor⠀⇛
The Geniatech SOM3588 is another Rockchip-based
System-on-Module designed for commercial and
industrial applications. Additionally, the company
launched a compatible carrier board with Wi-Fi 6/
BT5.0 support, GbE LAN and many other peripherals.
As its name implies the SOM3588 is built on the
RockChip RK3588 processor with an 8nm process
similar to the Forlinx FET3588-C SoM.
# ⚓ Liliputing ☛ Purism_found_a_way_to_make_its_Linux_phone
even_more_expensive:_meet_the_$2,199_Liberty_Phone⠀⇛
When Purism first announced plans to build a
smartphone that would run mainline Linux, the
company set a launch price of $599 for the Librem 5
phone. But it took another two years for the phone
to begin shipping in small batches. By then, it had
received a $100 price hike.
In the years since then, Purism has raised the
price several more times… by a lot. An entry-level
Librem 5 now sells for $1,299 and customers who
want a made-in-the-USA model can pay $1,999 for a
phone that’s basically the same, but promises a
“secure supply chain” for folks worried about
buying phones made in China. And now… there’s an
even more expensive model called the Liberty Phone.
It has a little more memory and storage and a
$2,199 price tag.
# ⚓ Linux On Mobile ☛ 2023-06-25_[Older]_Weekly_GNU-like_Mobile
Linux_Update_(25/2023):_Mobian_on_PineTab_2_and_Droidian
Trixie⠀⇛
# ⚓ GSM Arena ☛ Flashback:_phones_that_weren’t,_part_4:_making
a_new_smartphone_OS_is_hard⠀⇛
The more tech-savvy among you probably know that
Android is based on the Linux kernel. But it is
nothing like a typical Linux that you may have seen
on PCs – or on smartphones.
# ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Orange_Pi_Zero_3_Allwinner_H618_SBC_ships
with_up_to_4GB_RAM⠀⇛
The Orange Pi Zero 3 is a compact Allwinner H618
quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 SBC with 1GB to 4GB RAM,
16MB SPI flash, micro HDMI output, Gigabit
Ethernet, WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0, a USB 2.0 port,
and two headers for expansion.
It provides an update to the Allwinner H616-powered
Orange Pi Zero 2 SBC quadrupling the maximum memory
to 4GB and embedding a larger SPI flash. The new
board basically offers the same ports but in a
different layout and a slightly smaller form
factor.
The main difference between Allwinner H616 and
Allwinner H618 is that the latter comes with 1MB L2
cache for better performance. Another significant
difference relates to software support with the new
Orange Pi Zero 3 board supporting more recent
operating systems such as Android 12 for TV, Ubuntu
22.04, and Debian 12, as can be seen from the
simplified Orange Pi Zero 2 / Orange Pi Zero 3
comparison table below.
# ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ Geniatech_SoM_integrates_Rockchip_RK3588
Octa-core_processor⠀⇛
The Geniatech SOM3588 is another Rockchip-based
System-on-Module designed for commercial and
industrial applications. Additionally, the company
launched a compatible carrier board with Wi-Fi 6/
BT5.0 support, GbE LAN and many other peripherals.
o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾
# ⚓ Stargirl Flowers ☛ My_experience_building_a_Voron_2.4⠀⇛
Finally, I wanna share a bit about my experience
with the community since Voron is its community.
Overall, my experience was really positive- I
really love how freely folks share their builds,
experiences, and modifications for others. I love
the collaboration between the designers, community,
and vendors. For the most part, folks and
organizations seem genuinely investing in making
everything better for everyone.
However, nothing is perfect. Voron’s community is
spread across a bunch of platforms. There’s the
official forums, the TeamFDM forums, the official
Discord, and a subreddit. Since the Voron subreddit
remains private in the face of Reddit’s recent
policy changes, a large amount of discoverable
knowledge has been lost. The Discord seems to be
the most used and contains both an active user base
and a ton of accumulated knowledge. Unfortunately,
this knowledge mostly stays confined to Discord
where it becomes harder and harder to discover and
share over time. The Discord users are generally
helpful, but some have fallen into the pattern of
scolding new users for not reading pinned threads
or knowing some other assumed knowledge. This
culture combined with the high amount of activity
and the extraordinarily large amount of channels
leads to an environment that can be difficult for
some to participate in.

o ⚓ Hari Rana ☛ Hari_Rana:_Problems_With_Not_Raising_Awareness_and

Message from former GNOME Foundation member: “I had to
de-list from planet GNOME because of the threats,
harassment, and utter garbage I was getting both in my
blog comments and sent to me via other channels and I
just let my foundation membership lapse and stopped being
an active GNOME contributor. ☹️ I get that occasionally
in other open source projects like even in Fedora, but it
was really next level in terms of nastiness and volume…
GNOME is just super high-visible and/or somehow is a
magnet for these people”.
o ⚓ Linux Links ☛ 6_Best_Free_and_Open_Source_eBook_Tools⠀⇛
An electronic book (commonly abbreviated e-book) is a
text and image-based publication which can be read on a
computer or other digital devices such as an e-book
reader.
o § Content Management Systems (CMS)⠀➾
# ⚓ MJ Fransen ☛ Moving_from_Pleroma_to_Honk⠀⇛
Honk is a very lightweight ActivityPub server
created by Ted Unangst.
An ActivityPub server with minimal setup and
support costs.
With an ActivityPub server you become part of the
Fediverse.
Honk is written in Go and uses SQLite as database.

o § Programming/Development⠀➾
# ⚓ Rlang ☛ The_scaling_limit_of_Baxter_permutations⠀⇛
Versions of the following question can be traced
back at least to the work of Henri Poincaré
(Poincaré (1912)):
In how many ways a simple loop in the plane can
cross a line a specified number of times?
# ⚓ Peter_Hutterer:_gitlab.freedesktop.org_now_has_a_bugbot_for

Last weekend was the bi-annual time to roll the
main machine and server to the current Ubuntu
release, now at 23.04. It must now have been
fifteen or so years that I have used Ubuntu for my
desktop / server (for “reasons” I may write about
another time). And of course it all passed
swimmingly as usual.
# ⚓ Evan Hahn ☛ You_might_not_need_Helmet.js⠀⇛
This post is for people familiar with Helmet.js. It
was last updated for Helmet 7.0 and Express 4.18.
I maintain Helmet, a sorta-popular npm package
which sets various HTTP security response headers.
It’s designed to be easy to use and integrate, but
if you want to avoid a dependency and get a slight
performance boost, here’s how.
By default, Helmet adds 12 HTTP response headers
and removes one.
o § Standards/Consortia⠀➾
# ⚓ Chris Coyier ☛ Social_RSS⠀⇛
For the most part, I think the RSS reader apps that
we have now are actually much nicer than Google
Reader ever was. So my nostalgia is very tempered.
But the social features of Google Reader, I don’t
think, have quite been replicated yet. I wish there
were videos or something of how that all worked so
I could remember it better, but I seem to remember
having friends on Google Reader, well before Google
had Google+ or anything like that.

# ⚓ Missing_what_point?⠀⇛
I’ve lived a life of poverty and persecution, and
then making something from nothing, hiring people
and worrying about how to pay their salaries; I
take care of my broke parents, and children, some
queer and trans (and I am completely supportive).
My life did not include such privileges as choosing
pronouns or gender, getting voluntary medical
procedures and hormonal treatments, or deciding
that other people should bow to me and my lifestyle
choices. I was too busy surviving. You are the
privileged one here.
[...]
That is just so offensive. It is precisely the kind
of alienating behaviour that, well, alienates
certain groups and gives them a bad name. And it
looks like you prefer it that way, so you can bitch
“those people just don’t get it”.
This is what happens when you stew in the same soup
– you start normalizing horrible behavior. Aside
from the name-calling, do you honestly think that
you are clearly communicating yourself to anyone?
You can hi-five your buds but as an ambassador for
your chosen letter, YOU HAVE FAILED, MISERABLY.
# ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding:_AESKNRF_Wordo:_TRAPS⠀⇛
o § Politics and World Events⠀➾
# ⚓ Really?⠀⇛
I wasn’t planning on posting today. I have a
programming related task that I would rather be
doing, something that I find interesting and
exciting, but my previous post apparently stirred
some things. I’m not going to even link to the
replies. You know who you are. But if I ignored
what was said I couldn’t live with myself.
# ⚓ Coffee,_2_weeks_later⠀⇛
I was heavy drinker of coffee for 20 years. I
started to drink coffee at college. It tasted
horrible. But I learned it is less unappetizing
when milk is added.
So, I stopped drinking it 2 weeks ago. From 6
double cups a daný to 0.
First day was ok. But than I got heavy headache for
a day, when I took a painkiller. And then it was
ok.
o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾
# ⚓ Docker_(RPi3B)⠀⇛
# ⚓ Bash_alternatives_to_cloud_products_and_platforms⠀⇛
Most web products from file hosting to chat to
banking software are made up of a tech ‘stack’
within a large software ecosystem. These are built
for ‘scale’ and designed to be administered by a
company providing you a more or less turnkey
product at various levels of services. You pay for
increasing levels of convenience, either with your
private information being tracked, or with
recurring expenses. This could mean paying annual
fees for a ‘creative editing suite’, downloading
and running a health tracking app that invisibly
sells your data to data brokers, or accessing a
social media account that sells your data to
advertisers. And there are many more examples you
can imagine or read about in the news.
# § Internet/Gemini⠀➾
# ⚓ Go_Start_a_Blog⠀⇛
It sure feels like the big tech platforms
that people have relied on for years are
starting to rot away. There’s lots to be said
about X adding rate limiting, Y getting put
behind a login, Z killing their API, and one
of those things I’ve often seen said is that
it feels like the internet is dying.
I’m sure it does feel that way if platforms
are the main way you interact with the
internet, even more so if the companies
behind those platforms’ driving force is only
valuation. I believe the truth is that in
some ways the internet has in fact never been
healthier than now. The reason for that is
how stupid easy and cheap it is for someone
to set up their own space on the internet to
do and say whatever they want. And there’s no
need to worry about some random executive
messing everything up because of their
obsession with infinite growth.
# ⚓ Advertising⠀⇛
Does gemini have advertising? This boils down
to how one defines advertising, which like
spam, porn, or bears depends on “I’ll know it
when I see it”. A narrow ruling may mandate
an advertising company, that is, a commercial
involvement with intent to sell. This would
exclude other senses such as public notices
(road closed due to sinkhole) or promotions:
book reviews, great gadget geekouts, the
latest game addiction, etc. Gemini has very
little of the first sense, but does have the
second and especially third. One can, typing
in vi, also do product placement. Some
placements are less clumsy and more relevant.
For instance, the Psi Corps advertisement in
Babylon 5 followed a regular advertising
block, to the point that you might not
realize at first that the show was back on.
# ⚓ Mew151⠀⇛
Mew151 has a series of artistic posts titled
“Antimoon”, a collection of articles titled
“Cyberspace” which are “dedicated to the
World Wide Web, programming, and other techy
things”, a gemlog, and “Natalie’s Accordion
Corner” — a section of the capsule dedicated
to accordions, which can even boast its own
“Squeeze Blog”. I can hardly wait until after
I finish writing this post before reading all
of it.
Mew151 is also the Gemini capsule of an
interesting website. That may seem like
something that shouldn’t qualify for the
CCOW, but it actually does speak to Gemini’s
strengths.
# ⚓ RIP,_web⠀⇛
It’s official! The Web is dead!
i’m exaggerating, of course, but the demise
feels imminent. for too long now search
results have been near useless unless you
append “reddit” to the end of your search.
otherwise you get useless clickbait articles
which never get to the point, bombard you
with requests to give you push notifications
and to accept cookie upon cookie. and the
reddit trick is dead, along with reddit! many
communities are still locked down! the owners
are at odds with its userbase and i can’t see
the animosity ever properly clearing. when it
comes to websites like this, things only get
worse. deterioration and collapse are
inevitable.

# ⚓ School_Dinners⠀⇛
I grew up in England before celebrity chef Jamie
Oliver’s campaign for better quality food in
schools.
At primary school—up until age eleven—it was
already pretty bad. At highschool, it was something
else.
A popular meal at was “chips and gravy”. Chips
means what much of the rest of the world calls
“fries”, and gravy means something brown out of a
packet with hot water added. And that was the whole
meal. “Chips and cheese” was popular, too. The
cheese did not, of course, deserve the name.
# ⚓ An_Interpersonal_Quandary⠀⇛
There is a person in my life, whom I have known for
a very long time, who previously lived in my area
but left several years ago. A number of my real-
life friends know this person and are also friends
with them. Not long ago they came to visit the
area, and as a result, they were included in many
of my in-person interactions for a while.
Though this person and I were (and to an extent
still are) close, I have always had my grievances
about them. When they lived near me, they would
frequently get on my nerves, intentionally or
otherwise. We once thought very similarly about the
world, but our views have drifted apart over the
years, I moving more in one direction and they in
another. They wish they still lived in the area,
and I sympathize with that, but I have to admit to
myself that I appreciate the distance.
# ⚓ Re:_jsreed5:_An_Interpersonal_Quandary⠀⇛
Constantly thinking (about an) “I” maintains that
dynamic.
Therefore, think less about “your” self while
interacting with them, and all will be fine….
o § Politics and World Events⠀➾
# ⚓ I_miss_when_point_was_simply_a_beer⠀⇛
But the phrase “black person” seems rather
different than that to me, because the adjective
“black” *clearly* refers to skin color, so that
when used in a similar linguistic context as “queer
person” suggests skin color is a description of –
if not driving – *person*al behavior – and not just
of one or a few, but ALL persons possessing bodies
with above average dark skin color.
Thusly insisting skin color determines the behavior
of an entire swath of people seems roughly the
pinnacle of racism to me.
# ⚓ Questions_to_be_Considered_Before_Chicago⠀⇛
These are questions that have ruptured throughout
queer anarchist history since the late 2000s. Bash
Back! has been called many different things over
the years. If you ask 5 queer anarchists, you’re
likely to get 6 different answers. Some have
claimed that it is a decentralized network of
autonomous queer anarchist cells. Others have
considered it a gang, a tendency, or even just a
symbol. According to certain folks, they’re all of
these things and more.
o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾
# ⚓ How_to_host_git_repos⠀⇛
In honor of World Give Up GitHub day, here’s a
quick guide to how to serve up your own git repos.
# ⚓ Rose’s_Recent_Media_Roundup_and_Review_#1⠀⇛
So when I started up this journal one of my
intentions was to write a little about things I
watch/read/play/listen to, etc. because I want to
be a little more mindful about the media I consume.
So much of the time I just bounce from one thing to
the next to pass the time and ignore the loneliness
and bad feelings, so I want to spend a bit of time
actually thinking about these things so I can enjoy
them more deeply. This isn’t professional or well
thought out at all, I’m just rambling.
# ⚓ Automated_Bookmarking_to_Kindle_via_forlater.email⠀⇛
If you haven’t tried it out, forlater.email is a
great service for getting readable web content.
It’s like many other “read later” services in that
it takes a web article and turns it into readable
text. But unlike other, forlater.email is based on
email.
# ⚓ Enabling_HTTP/3_(QUIC)_on_nginx⠀⇛
I decided to enable experimental HTTP/3 support for
nginx, after it was mainlined at the end of May. It
is quite easy, if know how to handle the tiny foot
gun, the `add_header` directive.
First, you have to check if your nginx version >
1.25 has been built with HTTP/3 support. The one
from nginx’s repository obviously has. `nginx -V`
has to report `–with-http_v3_module`. Also make
sure to allow port 443/UDP in your firewall.
