CDC official in charge of Covid data resigns ahead of vaccine meeting
The scientist responsible for overseeing the CDC team that collects data on Covid and RSV hospitalizations resigned on Monday.
Dr Fiona Havers told colleagues in an email that she no longer had confidence the data would be used “objectively or evaluated with appropriate scientific rigor to make evidence-based vaccine policy decisions”, according to Reuters.
She resigned before a planned meeting of a new vaccine panel put in place by Robert Kennedy Jr after he fired all 17 members of the CDC’s independent vaccine advisory panel. Kennedy also dropped a recommendation to get the Covid shot for healthy children and pregnant women.

Threat in Your Medicine Cabinet: The FDA’s Gamble on America’s Drugs
A secretive group inside the FDA gave the global manufacturer a special pass to continue shipping more than a dozen drugs to the United States even though they were made at the same substandard factory that the agency had officially sanctioned. Pills and injectable medications that otherwise would have been banned went to unsuspecting patients across the country, including those with cancer and epilepsy.
The FDA didn’t routinely test the medications for quality problems or use its vast repository of drug-related complaints to proactively track whether they were harming the people who relied on them.
And the agency kept the exemptions largely hidden from the public and from Congress. Even others inside the FDA were unaware of the details.

"When I knew I had to do something, anything, about the war crimes in Gaza (I was haunted by my lifelong grief and outrage that no-one, no-one, no-one stood up for us when we were being annihilated in Europe) I was immediately attacked online by right-wing Jews. The usual condescending reproaches and violent insults were trotted out: I was giving aid to our enemies; I was spreading a “blood libel”; I was a Jew-hater; I was “pro-rape”. None of these insults could touch me because I knew how ludicrously false they were. As painful as it is to lose cherished friends, I asked myself: Is this intense social pressure why so very few Germans stood up against the Nazis?"

War-weary Gazans share images of destruction in Israel
By Nidal Al-Mughrabi
June 16, 20255:18 AM EDT""I was never a fan of Iran, I still don't like them because of their intervention in Gaza and other Arab countries, but seeing them retaliate for real, not a play like in previous times, made me happy, despite all the sadness around me," said Amr Salah, 29.
It is nothing compared to what Israel did to Gaza, but at least a taste of it. It is maybe time to end all of this, in Gaza too," he added."
Plex has paywalled my server!
I tried testing a movie from my home server in plex through firefox and repeatedly got this message, even after reloading.
I knew that they had paywalled the apps on mobile and streaming from outside the network but now they have also blocked watching your own movies through your own hardware.
I do get the point that making software should be able to sustain people but I dont see the move of plex as a fair thing to do. Yes, they have made great software but taking your home server hostage feels like the wrong move.
Even a pop up that says "we need you to donate please" would have been fine. make it pop up before every movie, play donation ads before any movie but straight up disabling the app is kinda cruel.
Anyway, i have switched to jellyfin and it is insanely good. please give it a try. you can run it alongside plex with not issues (at least i had none) and compare the two.
In any case, good luck. Let me know if you need help.

I liked posting a picture here so I think I will try to do it weekly 😀This is what the dawn of January 1st 2025 looked like for me. We've slept in my van through the night to get this view. The temperature was about -20℃ but it was worth it in the end.
The flats in the picture is the frozen Lake Paravani and the mountains are the Samsari ridge.

ASCII Diagram, offline, Linux, FLOSS
Hi,
I'm looking for a soft to create ASCII diagram like (or better)
asciiflow.com/
ideally:
- FLOSS
- for linux
- offline
- no javascript.
I've found a candidate ascii-draw and it's write in Python ❤️ 🐍, but it's only available as flatpack.. :/

Sketch anything using characters. Contribute to Nokse22/ascii-draw development by creating an account on GitHub.GitHub
like this
I'm not sure why you wouldn't want the ASCII-Draw flatpak, but that's not the only way to get it:
- there's a Snap
- it can be installed from source
- there's also an AUR package
But maybe you're not on Arch, don't like Snaps (can't blame anyone for that) and don't want to install from source (same)? What type of package are you looking for? Only native package? For which distro?
Ideally running the .py python foobar.py
will be ideal, otherwise an .appimage
I think I will have to build it my self (the .appimage ) 😀

महिला लापता: मंडी मेले से गायब खिरमा देवी चंबा में मिली, प्रेमी के साथ जाने की बात कबूली
Himachal News: मंडी जिले के कांढ़ी सरोआ गांव से महिला लापता होने की घटना ने सभी को चौंका दिया था। 20 वर्षीय खिरमा देवी, जो 15 जून 2025 को सतकुड़ी नाग देवता मेले में गई थी, अचानक गायब हो गई थी। गोहर पुलिस ने तकनीकी सहायता से उसकी लोकेशन ट्रेस की और उसे चंबा जिले के किलाड़ क्षेत्र में ढूंढ निकाला। खिरमा ने बताया कि वह अपनी इच्छा से प्रेमी रमेश कुमार के साथ गई है।
पुलिस जांच और खिरमा का बयान
गोहर थाना प्रभारी ने बताया कि खिरमा से मोबाइल पर संपर्क किया गया। उसने कहा कि वह रमेश के साथ चंबा गई है और अब घर नहीं लौटना चाहती। रमेश (22), चंबा के सलाणी गांव का निवासी है और मनाली में होटल में काम करता है। खिरमा ने पुलिस को बताया कि उनकी दोस्ती फेसबुक और इंस्टाग्राम पर छह महीने पहले शुरू हुई थी।
सोशल मीडिया ने बदली जिंदगी
खिरमा की शादी तीन साल पहले रोहित कुमार से हुई थी, लेकिन उनका वैवाहिक जीवन सुखी नहीं था। संतान न होने और पारिवारिक असंतोष ने उन्हें सोशल मीडिया की ओर आकर्षित किया। यहीं से रमेश के साथ उनकी दोस्ती गहरी हुई, जिसने उनके जीवन को नया मोड़ दिया। महिला लापता होने की शिकायत उनके पति रोहित ने गोहर थाने में दर्ज कराई थी।
पुलिस की सक्रियता
पुलिस ने शिकायत के बाद तुरंत कार्रवाई शुरू की। तकनीकी संसाधनों का उपयोग कर खिरमा की लोकेशन का पता लगाया गया। हिमाचल पुलिस ने इस मामले में पारदर्शिता बरती और दोनों पक्षों के बयान दर्ज किए। खिरमा और रमेश को महिला थाना चंबा में पेश होने के लिए कहा गया है।
आगे की जांच
पुलिस इस मामले की गहराई से जांच कर रही है। खिरमा के बयान के आधार पर यह स्पष्ट है कि वह अपनी मर्जी से रमेश के साथ गई, लेकिन पुलिस सभी पहलुओं की पड़ताल कर रही है। यह मामला सोशल मीडिया के प्रभाव और व्यक्तिगत निर्णयों की जटिलता को दर्शाता है। महिला लापता होने की यह घटना अब एक नए दिशा में बढ़ रही है।

It’s a shame car companies are exploiting this talking line to recommend even worse ICE cars.
The lesson should be to prioritise soft mobility and public transport .
