"There’s a relentless campaign by scammers to publish malware in the Canonical Snap Store. Some gets caught by automated filters, but plenty slips through. Recently, these miscreants have changed tactics - they’re now registering expired domains belonging to legitimate snap publishers, taking over their accounts, and pushing malicious updates to previously trustworthy applications. This is a significant escalation." #linux #ubuntu #snap #cybersecurity

"When we look at history books, we usually only learn what we are allowed to learn and what we are supposed to know. A recent example of this is the portrayal of the Ukraine conflict. It allegedly began in February 2022 when the Russian army invaded its neighboring country. The background to the conflict is concealed; according to the prevailing opinion, it is an unprovoked “brutal war of aggression,” an attack on a sovereign, democratically governed country."

image In ‘Birdsong on the Seabed’ the poet-bird sings of the land above to the cold-blooded and indifferent sea beasts, but none believe it. This marvellous, almost miraculous, poem fixes the fate of the prophet and the poet in Shvarts’ world - to sing with unbearable beauty of another reality to those who are deaf or indifferent to your song.

"Like all new frontiers touted as necessary and worthwhile, the cashless society is advertised as a supremely convenient way to facilitate financial transactions while avoiding such silly inconveniences as carrying cash and scouting for a money dispenser. A cashless society also facilitates inequality, manifests a pattern of conduct easily monitored by both private companies and State agencies, and repudiates the notion of valid tender. It also subordinates its users to a digital ecosystem that can, at any given moment, fail."

"Anyone who has ever faced the crisis of an elderly parent who has suffered mental and physical decline can probably recall the moment when you had to intervene and take the car keys from your father or mother. Certainly not a happy time, but the given the possibility of the impaired senior citizen causing an accident that could kill others it was the right decision."

"In that sense, the future of democratic constraint may lie less in dramatic foreign crises than in the quiet refusal of citizens, in the United States and among its allies, to underwrite a politics of permanent emergency and imperial coercion."

"It has already been 5 years since UnifiedPush started! It also means I don’t have any Play Services, the official or microG reimplementation, for 5 years now. It is a good moment to do a recap, and think about what can be UnifiedPush in 5 years."

US Surging Military Assets to Middle East, Israel Kills at Least 10 Palestinians in Gaza, and More

"The Trump administration’s January 2026 military operation in Venezuela marks not an aberration, but the logical culmination of a presidency increasingly defined by broken promises and coercive force. Sold to American voters as a return to restraint, prosperity, and “peace through strength,” Trump’s foreign policy has instead echoed the very interventionist playbook he once denounced. The rhetoric of counter-narcotics and self-defence has become a convenient cover for the violation of Venezuelan sovereignty, just as trade wars have failed to revive manufacturing jobs and tariffs have deepened cost-of-living pressures. With approval ratings sliding and early indicators pointing to a high risk of Republican losses in the Senate and Congress at the midterms, foreign aggression now appears less like strategy than political diversion."

"President Trump reportedly called off strikes against Iran last night because they would be unlikely to deliver a decisive blow, and the ensuing conflict would leave US assets in the Gulf vulnerable, as well as be hugely disruptive to the oil trade. He says he has received assurances from Iran that there will not be mass executions. He also says Iran has stopped killing protesters, presumably because Israel has stopped killing Iranian police. Lindsey Graham must be so fucking mad."

Yes, there was a time when mainstream media produced excellent documentaries and touched topics which are considered anti-semitic nowadays. I you have time, watch it... Frontline PBS: Israel, The Covert Connection, 1989

"What matters peace if it permits killing, maiming and destroying the infrastructure of a society supposedly once at war? This is the situation facing Gaza as the occupying Israeli forces go about their business making the Strip even more uninhabitable for the Palestinian residents, ensuring that that land will be vacated, either through force or massaged consent, to enable its eventual seizure."
