2025 Medina Juneteenth Celebration
Medina held their fourth annual Juneteenth celebration at the town square today. I was able to check out some of it, even with the wet weather. It was the Sanyuka Children’s Choir from Uganda who impressed me the most with their energy and dancing. Kenny Crumpton from Fox 8’s Kickin’ It With Kenny and Danita Harris from WKYC Channel 3 were also featured guest speakers at the event.

Free NetBSD server user account only for educational purposes
Greetings,
I recently setup my own NetBSD server to learn more about selfhosting and Unix. I am sharing it with anyone who also want to learn about command line and server stuff and will be also providing mentorship ( not an expert but know enough to at least teach begginers).
stuff I can teach using that server:
- basic command line
- how to host stuff like static HTML pages
- ssh concepts
- hosting http alternative like Gemini, Gopher etc
- scripting in Bash, Python etc
so yeah, if you think you or someone else is interested in learning NetBSD share this post with them 😀
( again this is just for begginers only please don't sign up if you are already an expert or intermediate )

Israel: Euphoria gives way to fear after Iranian missiles rain down on Tel Aviv
By Lubna Masarwa
Published date: 14 June 2025 17:12 BST
Still, fires and plumes of smoke could be seen in several areas of Tel Aviv, while explosions were also reported in Jerusalem.
Images and videos verified by Middle East Eye showed apartment blocks in Tel Aviv's suburbs and the nearby city of Ramat Gan almost completely destroyed and the wreckage of several vehicles among the debris.
Israel: Euphoria gives way to fear after Iranian missiles rain down on Tel Aviv
Israelis said the initial euphoria over the shock attacks on Iran has given way to fear, after Iranian missiles slammed into central Tel Aviv and other parts of Israel, causing widespread destruction and killing at least three people.Lubna Masarwa (Middle East Eye)

Why would Cuba even want to trade with the US? They have full trade access to every other country in the region. The US market would only harm Cuban culture and overrun their economy.
Claiming that Cuba would be doing so much better, if only they had more access to US markets, is disingenuous Capitalist propaganda.

Edit:
For anyone else on the fence, someone sent me this link with lots more evidence of suppression, misinformation and general asshatery I don't fux with. lemmy.world/post/29072279
If I didn't know any better, I'd suspect 'ml' is run by , but that's just wild speculation based on tons of coincidences. No hard evidence.
Edit2:
I've censored myself as I'm fully aware I'll get completely and immediately censored if I try to imply a certain country may be directing things here.
I mean it seems like you do not understand the rule that keeps getting cited, the reason russian gets removed when used as an insult is often times it is used in a racist or atleast racist adjacent way, and so the way .ml has decided to deal with that is that it just, isnt an insult, that is not that you can never critisize the russian federation ever, but you cannot use russian as an insult, because agian it is often used racistly or atleast racist adjacent.
Edit: If you would like proof I am more than happy if asked to levy a critisism of the Russian Federation and then you can report it and we will see if it gets taken down

Graphene OS Situation
I know the generall guidance for private phones was Pixel with graphene OS. I was financially planing on buying a 10th gen pixel when they come out later this year to only put gos on it.
However with the recent news, I am wondering if this is still the recommended best practice from this community.
I am worried that if the gos team needs to spend tonnes of ressources on maintaining basic drivers and stuff then they won't have any time to work on the privacy and security features they are best known for.
What is your oppinion?
Also does anyone have a way to dpam feedback to google? I couldn't finf a generall feedback form, but if they know that people aren't buying their hardware because of this decision, they might back down. (I really fell in love with gos researching it lately so I would hate to have to switch to something like /e/ os or calyx or something)
like this
OK First thing GOS team is currently assuming that Pixel 10+ won't meet their requirements. But for older Pixels it's tough. Google just stopped sharing vendor blob, device tree, and instead of openly developing AOSP now it is fully behind close doors only releasing source later with full update. But I have hope. I've been daily driving custom ROMs for 10+ years and before I could afford Pixel I had cheap phones which also didn't share any of these things but custom ROMs were very much thriving and they will always. Yes there may be a little more delay for new devices. All the new features may take longer but GOS already has a lot of security and privacy stuff figured out.
I think we should all support however we can to not just GOS but also other Custom ROMs. Because there will always be those who'll stop society from progressing and all we can do is fight back with donations, our time, and resources.

France’s deepest shipwreck found: 16th-century vessel discovered off Ramatuelle
Archaeologists discover a 16th-century shipwreck 2.5 km deep off Saint-Tropez, revealing rare ceramics and maritime history.Dario Radley (Archaeology News Online Magazine)
Despite the well-preserved site, modern waste such as soda cans and yogurt containers were observed near the wreck, and this has already posed questions about sea pollution even at extreme depths. The researchers have thus considered incorporating environmental awareness and anti-pollution studies into their ongoing research and public outreach.

US federal judge blocks Trump executive order altering voting requirements and election procedure
A US federal judge on Friday blocked President Donald Trump’s March 25 executive order (EO) that alters requirements for voting and election procedure. In a preliminary injunction, the judge addressed that this is not a dispute about whether non-citizens can vote in federal elections, but whether documentary proof of citizenship can be required and if the executive has the power to govern elections.

"No Space For Bezos": Why Venice Locals Are Against The Billionaire's Wedding

Activists have ramped up their "No space for Bezos" campaign after Luigi Brugnaro, Venice's millionaire mayor, confirmed in March that the couple would be getting married in the city.The locals erected a banner reading "No Bezos" on the bell tower of San Giorgio basilica on the Venetian island of San Giorgio, where the couple is rumoured to be exchanging vows.
According to a report by the NYT, Federica Toninello, a protest organiser, said that one of the venues could be The Misericordia, a former charity turned events hall. But she said that Bezos will never get to the venue. "Bezos will never get to the Misericordia," she said, adding, "We will line the streets with our bodies, block the canals with lifesavers, dinghies and our boats."
Na Haby Stella Faye, another protester, said, "We have a chance to disrupt a ten million dollar wedding - let's do it."

Police say suspect dressed as law enforcement and shot at responding officers before escaping
I’m just gonna say. Might the suspect have been a police officer? I wouldn’t trust the police to disclose that.
I mean if they are wearing a uniform and emerged from a cop car as eyewitness accounts suggest…
The gunman was still at large, law enforcement said on Saturday, and the city of Brooklyn Park was still under a shelter-in-place order. The shooter was impersonating a police officer, dressed in a uniform that would appear to be real to most people, police said.“They did drive a vehicle that looked exactly like an SUV squad car,” Brooklyn Park’s police chief, Mark Bruley, said at a press conference. “It was equipped with lights, emergency lights, that looked exactly like a police vehicle, and yes, they were wearing a vest with Taser, other equipment, a badge very similar to mine, that, no question, if they were in this room, you would assume that they are a police officer.”

La Francia intensifica la guerra alla pirateria sportiva con il blocco degli IP in tempo reale
Il Senato francese ha approvato una nuova legge anti-pirateria che apre le porte al blocco automatico degli indirizzi IP. Questa spinta legislativa è sostenuta da un accordo parallelo e “segreto” tra i detentori di diritti sportivi e i principali ISP, che mira ad automatizzare gli sforzi antipirateria e a semplificare le richieste di blocco diretto. I titolari dei diritti sperano che questi nuovi poteri contribuiscano a contrastare l'economia “mafiosa” della pirateria.
Le misure tradizionali di blocco dei siti, che impongono agli ISP locali di bloccare l'accesso degli abbonati ai siti pirata più popolari, sono state utilizzate dai titolari dei diritti in Francia per anni. L'obiettivo è quello di scoraggiare la pirateria rendendo i siti più difficili da trovare, ma queste misure sono solo parzialmente efficaci.
Più recentemente, le richieste di blocco dei siti hanno preso di mira altri intermediari. Ai fornitori di DNS, tra cui Google e Cloudflare, e a diversi dei maggiori fornitori di VPN, è stato ordinato di rendere i siti pirata non disponibili attraverso i loro servizi.

Two Days Talking to People Looking for Jobs at ICE
cross-posted from: piefed.social/post/930949
Customs and Border Patrol, the Coast Guard, and the Secret Service were all recruiting at the event, but ICE was the main draw. Far more applicants stood in line to submit their resumes for deportation officer than for any other position on offer in the cavernous room.Naturally there were a large number of law enforcement types hanging around the convention—men with military fades, moisture-wicking shirts, and tattoos of the bible and the constitution and eagles and flags distended across their arms. But there were also a handful of women ICE applicants and a lot of men of color. The deportation officer applicant pool was, I felt, shockingly diverse—one might say it looked like America. The whole place looked and felt like America.

Israele ottiene il dominio aereo sull'Iran
Secondo i funzionari militari israeliani, l'aviazione israeliana ha acquisito un controllo duraturo sullo spazio aereo iraniano in seguito a una serie di attacchi coordinati contro i sistemi di difesa aerea, le basi militari e i siti di lancio di Teheran.
Dopo un'importante salva iniziale nelle prime ore del 13 giugno, gli aerei israeliani hanno continuato le operazioni in profondità nel territorio iraniano, eliminando sistematicamente i sistemi missilistici terra-aria (SAM) e neutralizzando le strutture militari ritenute in grado di minacciare le forze o il territorio israeliano.
In un filmato appena pubblicato, le Forze di Difesa Israeliane (IDF) hanno mostrato attacchi di precisione contro risorse chiave iraniane, tra cui la distruzione di un sistema di difesa aerea Tor-M1 di fabbricazione russa e di un lanciamissili balistici Fateh-110. Entrambi sarebbero stati colpiti da missili da crociera lanciati dall'aria israeliana durante le ondate successive dell'operazione.
La campagna in corso, lanciata nell'ambito della risposta israeliana all'escalation delle minacce iraniane, sembra focalizzata a degradare la rete di difesa aerea integrata della Repubblica Islamica, in gran parte sviluppata con la tecnologia e il supporto russo.
