There can be no winners in a US-China AI arms race
The United States and China are entangled in what many have dubbed an “AI arms race.”
In the early days of this standoff, US policymakers drove an agenda centered on “winning” the race, mostly from an economic perspective. In recent months, leading AI labs such as OpenAI and Anthropic got involved in pushing the narrative of “beating China” in what appeared to be an attempt to align themselves with the incoming Trump administration. The belief that the US can win in such a race was based mostly on the early advantage it had over China in advanced GPU compute resources and the effectiveness of AI’s scaling laws.
But now it appears that access to large quantities of advanced compute resources is no longer the defining or sustainable advantage many had thought it would be. In fact, the capability gap between leading US and Chinese models has essentially disappeared, and in one important way the Chinese models may now have an advantage: They are able to achieve near equivalent results while using only a small fraction of the compute resources available to the leading Western labs.

From Gaza to Iran: How Empire Manufactures War (Video 43mins)
As Israel bombs Iran, and the threat of U.S. military escalation grows by the hour, the world’s attention is being pulled into yet another war that Israel started and the West manufactured. After flattening Gaza and locking down the West Bank Israel has now dragged Iran into open confrontation — and is calling on the U.S. to finish the job.

By chaining legitimate services such as udisks loop-mounts and PAM/environment quirks, attackers who own any active GUI or SSH session can vault across polkit's allow_active trust zone and emerge as root in seconds.
I recognize a few of those words.
So how would a bad actor start a remote session on my Linux pc?
Edited to add, downvoted for trying to learn is a new one for me.
They probably can not. Unless you've setup your router such that anyone can connect to an ssh instance running on your PC, and then also use a bad password. Public wifi + having something like ssh running + having a bad password.
Your PC probably doesn't satisfy these requirements (yay!), but some servers might.
You probably already do, but if you need SSH, use crowdsec, SSHGuard or fail2ban to help filter bot nets.
I have IPs hitting from all over the world, trying logins all the time. Like several per minute, I can only imagine what it would be like if I wasn't blocking IPs with multiple failed login attempts.
No, there are other ways to get access to your machine without needing it. In general you can classify vulnerabilities as either code execution or privilege escalation, a code execution vulnerability allows an attacker to execute code on your machine, a privilege escalation allows him to break barriers that you might have imposed on him.
For example, if you're running service X as root, and someone manages to find a way to use something on service X to execute code, they might get a reverse shell to your box and run anything there. So you might set service X to run as your user instead of root, now that vulnerability is less important because it only compromises your user, but the attacker could use this one in conjunction with the other one to gain control of your user, then escalate to become root.
If this is something you're interested in, there's a cool website called hackthebox where you have to do these sort of things for real. If you want to have an idea on how it looks, there are some excellent videos here showing walkthroughs for many of them he boxes, I recommend checking something labeled easy since these boxes can get quite complex, but it will give you a good idea of the steps attackers need to take to compromise your system

The tech giant has considered pausing discussions with the ChatGPT maker if the two sides remain unable to agree on critical issues such as the size of Microsoft's future stake in OpenAI, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter.
Polish scientists urge public to step up war on drought
Scientists in Poland have called on the public to step up efforts to combat drought, revealing that around 45% of the country’s forests and agricultural land are under threat.
The appeal was made on World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought, with scientists warning that drought had now become an annual issue.
Currently, surface water resources per capita (the amount of renewable surface water available for each person in a specific location) stand at 1,600 cubic meters per year, approximately three times below the European average.
In an open letter published on their website, Poland’s national water authority, Polish Waters (Wody Polskie), wrote: “Despite Poland’s seemingly moderate climate, summer droughts have been observed since 2011.”
Financial losses stemming from drought were placed at 2.6 billion złotys in 2018 alone.
Now, Polish Waters have issued a rallying cry calling on the forestry commission, regional authorities, farmers and entrepreneurs to join forces to do their bit.
“The key is to retain water where it falls,” wrote Polish Waters. “Through water retention and wise water management, we can protect our fields, forests and cities from the effects of drought. Together we can restore balance to the landscape and take care of the future.”
Continuing, Polish Waters apportioned much of the blame on climate change, citing it as a major driver of drought.
“This process is further modulated by seasonal precipitation patterns, surface runoff, water storage, and interactions with vegetation.”
“Recent weather patterns, characterized by prolonged droughts interspersed with heavy rainfall, are further exacerbating the problem. While droughts leave land dehydrated for years, heavy rainfall washes away topsoil instead of replenishing it,” they added.
Farmers have been particularly impacted by Poland’s spate of droughts, with one report showing that 45% of the county’s forests and agricultural fields are at risk, with central Poland and Wielkopolska in west-central Poland the most vulnerable of all.
Traditionally, agricultural droughts have been viewed as a particular problem, with their effects including lower yields, poorer crop quality, higher susceptibility to diseases and pests, and higher end prices for the consumer.
To fight drought, Polish Waters has already completed 55 investments valued at 150 million złotys, among them the modernization of the Ruda reservoir near the northeastern town of Mława.
The authority has also embarked on an aggressive educational campaign aimed at promoting smaller scale retention measures, switching lawns out in favor of flowery meadows and encouraging the planting of drought-resistant plants.
“Let’s work together for the people, for nature and for future generations,” added Polish Waters.

Some Democratic senators regret voting to confirm Kristi Noem as DHS secretary
Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who voted against Noem, tore into her performance."It's really hard to imagine someone doing a worse job as the secretary of homeland security," Schiff said in an interview. "The draconian, inconsistent, inflammatory immigration policies; the lawlessness; the rendering of people outside the country to maximum-security prisons; the arrest of U.S. citizens; the constant, bizarre spectacle of her doing dress-up outside of a maximum-security prison; or in her various cosplay. It's embarrassing, and it takes the focus off of what should be the heart of that job, and that is protecting our homeland security."

Army gives shady offer to tech bros so they can play soldier
At first glance, it seems like Silicon Valley executives have the perfect life, what with the unimaginable wealth and power and such. But what if they’re sad they don’t get to put on big boy pants and pretend they’re warfighters? What then, America?Thankfully the Army has invented a way to give tech execs participation trophies—surely that is the best and most noble use of our armed forces.
A new Army initiative titled “Detachment 201: The Army’s Executive Innovation Corps” promises to “fuse cutting-edge tech expertise with military innovation.”
Just in case this conflict of interest wasn’t blatant enough, Katrina Mulligan, former chief of staff to the Army secretary, posted more big news on LinkedIn Monday, announcing that, since being rewarded its $200 million contract, OpenAI is now bringing her on to run a new initiative, “OpenAI for Government,” which will supposedly “help accelerate the U.S. government’s adoption of AI.”
Notably absent from the list of Big Special Boys with Big Special Army Jobs is Musk and any of his companies. In the halcyon days of the Trump-Musk alliance, he was getting literal billions in government contracts, awarded with no oversight and no regard for the obvious conflict of interest.
SpaceX was on track to help build the Golden Dome missile shield, a Trump fixation and boondoggle that will not work but will nonetheless cost somewhere between $119 billion and $6.4 trillion. But now there’s nary a mention of SpaceX while Golden Dome missile shield partner Palantir’s star is rapidly ascending.

How to combat infection of your system?
So I jumped from Windows to Linux, endeavouros btw, and would like to know:
how you keep your system clean?
If you are infected how do you find out? What do you do about it then?
like this
curl something | sudo bash, ignore it. And, in general, don't run anything as root unless you understand what you are doing and why this cannot be done without root privileges.
Somthing you need to be very careful is your clipboard when you copy/past from the internet to your terminal. It can contain hidden malicious code... Nasty shit !

YSK about your search engines, and whether they have a independent search index or not
Most people either use google as their search engine, or one of the "privacy friendly ones" (ddg, qwant, brave, startpage, ...), or use self hosted or publicly available metasearch engines, like searxng, or whoogle, etc.
This websites lists out websites which have their own indexes, and which depend on big providers.
Why YSK?
It is good for your privacy to not use a big provider like google, which now prefers to serve you ai generated ssummaries, which are based on a few giant websites, and this is not good for a open web.
I am also a person who almost always uses "(insert query) reddit" to get better results, because I mostly do not want SEO spam, and reddit results used to be human generated content. Now even that is hit and miss. Also, reddit made a deal with google, so for newer results from reddit, you can only get them from google.
Then we have the "privacy friendly ones" which most of the time are wrappers for other bigger indexes, for example ddg famously uses bing, brave "suppliments" (read this suppliments as almost always) it's results from google, startpage is basically a google frontend, etc. Brave, qwant, and few others also claim to have their own indexes, but they are small and not rich as google and bing. Also, wwhen you think about it - what is their business model - how do they get money for the search apis - most either serve adds or have some form of tracking. Also, bing has "kinda" closed it's search api (not really clear about this), so many of these privacy friendly options will have to either switch to google, or only serve using their indexes.
Meta-search engines kinda seem like better options, as you can run searxng on your own machine, or use the public ones, but it still has problems. You are still bringing the big providers traffic, which makes their advertisement clients happier and prefer them over smaller search engines. If you use a public instance, then it is good for your privacy, but the public instance would now generate a lot traffic, and often get banned or rate limited, and hence you can not rely on them. If you use your personal instances (I did this for a long time), you will still be tracked as your IP is still visible. You avoid their annoying ui and popups but still are tracked.
So what should you use?
You can only decide this. I would prefer something which has a reasonable business model - if they do advertisement, that should ideally be non tracking. Ideally their client and server code should be foss (so you can verify their claims), or have paid plans or apis if you do not want ads.
For example, Kagi has only paid plans, but I do not prefer or use them, because they are expensive (5 dollars for 300 searches per month or something similar. I am from one of third world countries, and 5 dollars is a lot. plus 300 searches seem less to me) but that is subjective, and your privacy has a price, so this is not neccessarily a objectively bad thing. But their code is closed source, and they do not completely use their own indexes.
I have also used Mullvad's Leta search engine for about a month, and they are now effectively frontends for brave search or google (you can choose). Their business plan initially was that Leta was only available to their VPN clients, and VPN subscription would supplement the search cost. Now they have it available for free, so I do not really understand their business plan (maybe the number of clients they have is large enough, and number of leta users is small, that they can afford to run leta for loss, and maybe as possible advertisement for mullvad. Mullvad to me is a good privacy centric company. I am not their client, but they seem to be trust worthy. You can try them, but you would still support some big provider.
You can also try the independent search providers listed in the article. They are often small, serve bad (subjectively speaking; your taste regarding search engines is also heavily tuned to google like results because of years of exposure to it) results, but using them also supports open web (you would often find that these smaller providers do not have good indexes for big websites, and sometimes it is intentional, sometimes it is a byproduct of them being careful, or the websites banning/rate limiting then).
I have now started trying stract, and will try others too. You should also consider trying some independent search engines.
In my personal case - I have a offline setup where I have large sections of wikipedia and a few other websites (like programning language docs, or my favorite manga wiki, will be adding much of stack overflow soon) available offline, and I use my custon launcher to search through them (faster then searching them online). I bookmark a lot of sites (~ 2000) and do this to stop searching the same stuff over and over again. This has reduced at least 30-40% of all my searches. But I still need a search engine for anything I do not have currently, or stuff I do not/ can not get. I am trying stract, because it is open source, they seen to have some fine plans for business in future (non tracking, current search term related ads or subscription service ; currenlty they are running on previous funding from nlnet); search results are acceptable (not good, but servicable); and finally - it is written in RUST (I an a rust fan). I am not affiliated with the project, but just spreading a good word because I just found them, and could not find much online.
PS: I am not used to writing much, and not a good typist. Please forgive the brevity. Feel free to correct me, both on spellings and content

Poland blames Russian ‘sabotage’ for GPS disruptions over Baltic Sea
Poland has been observing GPS disruptions over the Baltic Sea, Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said, adding they were “related to the actions of the Russian Federation, including sabotage actions.”
Polish media reported cases of GPS malfunction in the north of the country on Tuesday, including private drones flying away in unknown directions or losing connection.
“This may be Russia’s answer to the Baltops exercises,” Polish Vice Admiral Krzysztof Jaworski told Reuters on Tuesday, referring to NATO’s annual exercise in the Baltic Sea, being held this month.
Jaworski said the disruptions had become more intense since the start of the NATO exercise.
On Monday, a flight from Alicante in Spain to the northern Polish city of Bydgoszcz was redirected to Poznań in the west of Poland due to navigation problems, a Bydgoszcz airport spokesperson said, without identifying the airline.
“We are observing these disruptions. They are also observed over the Baltic Sea area by our allies in NATO countries - both in the Baltic states and the Nordic countries,” Kosiniak-Kamysz told journalists when asked about such incidents at a press conference about new helicopters.
“These actions are related, according to our sources, to the actions of the Russian Federation, also to sabotage actions.”
He did not elaborate on the sources.
**Rising sabotage threats **
Countries located on the Baltic Sea have reported numerous incidents since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, including power cable, telecom link and gas pipeline outages, and the NATO military alliance has boosted its presence in the region.
On Tuesday, Poland and the Baltic states signed a memorandum to boost the protection of critical energy infrastructure, with a special focus on shielding vulnerable underwater assets in the Baltic Sea, where a string of suspected sabotage attacks have been reported since Russia launched its full-scale invasion.
Last year, Estonia and Finland blamed Moscow for jamming GPS navigation devices in the region’s airspace.
Russia has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.

The [Council of Europe] Commissioner asks the German authorities to uphold freedom of expression and peaceful assembly in the context of the conflict in Gaza
cross-posted from: feddit.org/post/14434622
cross-posted from: feddit.org/post/14434560
[Letter sent on the 06th of June and made public today]Dear Minister,
My mandate is to foster the effective observance of human rights in all member states of the Council of Europe. An important part of my work is to engage in dialogue with the governments and parliaments
of member states, and to assist them in addressing possible shortcomings in their laws and practices.I write in relation to measures taken by the German authorities that restrict freedom of expression and freedom of peaceful assembly of persons protesting in the context of the conflict in Gaza.
Freedom of peaceful assembly
It is my understanding that since February 2025, the Berlin authorities have imposed restrictions on the
use of the Arabic language and cultural symbols in the context of the protests. In some cases, such as an assembly in Berlin on 15 May 2025, marches have been restricted to stationary gatherings.
Furthermore, protestors were allegedly subject to intrusive surveillance, online or in person, and arbitrary police checks.I am also concerned by reports of excessive use of force by police against protesters, including minors, sometimes leading to injuries. The use of force by law enforcement officials including during protests must comply with the principles of non-discrimination, legality, necessity and proportionality, and precaution. Incidents of excessive use of force need to be effectively investigated, those responsible should be sanctioned in an appropriate manner and victims should be informed about possible remedies. To facilitate accountability, law enforcement officials should always display a visible and easily recognisable form of identification during assemblies, which reportedly has not always been the
case during some of the latest demonstrations.I further have to observe that over a number of years protests on Nakba commemoration day, particularly in Berlin, have been suppressed. For instance, in 2024, protests were reportedly met with
excessive use of force by the police, resulting in arrests and injuries among participants. Peaceful protesters were reportedly arrested, and criminal law provisions were applied to expressions of support
for Palestine.I draw your attention to the Guidelines on Peaceful Assembly prepared by the European Commission for Democracy through Law (Venice Commission) and the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (OSCE/ODIHR). They outline that content-based restrictions on assembly must be subject to the most serious scrutiny: freedom of peaceful assembly also protects demonstrations that may annoy or cause offence to persons opposed to the ideas or claims that it is seeking to promote. Any measures interfering with freedom of peaceful assembly and expression other than in cases of
incitement to violence or rejection of democratic principles do a disservice to democracy and may even endanger it.Freedom of expression
Restrictions on freedom of expression have also reportedly been identified in such contexts as universities, arts and culture institutions, and schools. Furthermore, allegedly there have been attempts to deport foreign nationals in relation to their participation in protests and other forms of expression regarding the conflict in Gaza.
I understand that restrictions have been justified on the basis that events, symbols, or other forms of expression “disrupt public order” or “disturb public peace”. The case-law of the European Court of Human Rights’ (the Court) establishes that freedom of expression “applies not only to ‘information’ and ‘ideas’ that are favourably received, regarded as inoffensive, or which leave one indifferent […] - it implies pluralism, tolerance and openness, without which there is no ‘democratic society’”. In assessing the necessity of the interference, member states have little scope to impose restrictions on political speech or on debate on matters of public interest, unless the views expressed comprise incitements to violence, and must always carry out such an assessment case by case.
I observe that other justifications invoked for the restrictions on rights include the prevention of antisemitism. I note with concern reports indicating that the working definition of antisemitism of the
International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) has been interpreted by some German authorities in ways which lead to the blanket classification of criticism of Israel as antisemitic. In that
regard, I urge you to be vigilant that the IHRA working definition is not distorted, instrumentalised or misapplied to stifle freedom of expression and legitimate criticism, including of the state of Israel.More generally, the Court’s case law and the Council of Europe standards and guidance on freedom of expression, hate speech and hate crime (among others, Recommendation CM/Rec(2022)16 of the
Committee of Ministers to member States on combating hate speech and, ECRI General Policy Recommendation N°15 on Combatting Hate Speech), provide the necessary framework for calibrating restrictions which must respect the principles of legality, necessity, roportionality and non-discrimination.In conclusion, I recall that member states have both an obligation to refrain from undue interference with human rights and also positive obligations to safeguard these rights by securing their effective enjoyment for everyone, at all levels of government. I therefore respectfully ask you to ensure the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly for all and to refrain from measures that discriminate against persons based on their political or other opinion, religion or belief, ethnic origin, nationality or
migration status.I stand ready to continue our constructive dialogue on this and other human rights issues in Germany.___

Poland’s Third Way alliance confirms split but remains within Tusk’s ruling coalition
The two parties that make up the Third Way (Trzecia Droga), which is part of Poland’s ruling coalition, have confirmed that they are splitting and will stand separately at the next elections.
The decision was confirmed in statements issued last night and this morning by the leaders of the two parties that make up the alliance: Szymon Hołownia of the centrist Poland 2050 (Polska 2050) and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz of the centre-right Polish People’s Party (PSL).
The Third Way was formed two years ago, when PSL and Poland 2050 were in opposition. They retained their separate identities as parties but stood candidates on joint electoral lists at the October 2023 parliamentary elections, where they together won 14.4% of the vote.
That placed them third, behind the national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS, 35.4%) and centrist Civic Coalition (KO, 30.7%) and ahead of The Left (Lewica, 8.6%).
After those elections, KO, the Third Way and The Left formed a new coalition government, led by KO leader Donald Tusk, that removed PiS from power after eight years in office. It has ruled the country ever since.
Kosiniak-Kamysz serves as deputy prime minister and defence minister in the government, while Hołownia is the speaker of Sejm, the more powerful lower house of parliament.
PSL and Poland 2050 formed separate caucuses in parliament, with each currently having 32 MPs in the 460-seat Sejm.
But they continued to stand jointly as the Third Way in subsequent elections. At the April 2024 local elections, the Third Way won 14.3% of the vote. However, at the European elections that took place two months later, its share fell to just 6.9%.
In this year’s presidential election, PSL agreed to support the candidacy of Hołownia, but he won a disappointing 5% of the vote in the first round, finishing fifth. That was significantly worse than his presidential run as an independent in 2020, when he finished third with 13.9%.
Since the most recent presidential elections, rumours have circulated that PSL and Poland 2050 might decide to separate.
The two parties have not always been natural allies, with PSL taking more conservative positions on issues such as abortion and same-sex partnerships and Poland 2050 placing stronger emphasis on climate policies than its partner.
On Tuesday evening, PSL’s leadership met to discuss the best path forward. Afterwards, before any official announcement had been made, Hołownia issued a statement saying that his party “accepts the decision of our coalition partner PSL to effectively end the Third Way project”.
He said that Poland 2050 was “determined to work constructively with our partners” going forward, but was also felt “sincere political joy at the prospect of running independently in the next elections”.
Subsequently, leading PSL figures, including party spokesman Miłosz Motyka, noted that no resolution had been formally adopted on ending the Third Way alliance. That prompted questions over whether what Hołownia had written was accurate.
However, on Wednesday, Kosiniak-Kamysz confirmed the split, telling broadcaster Radio Zet that the Third Way “is behind us, it has reached the end”.
The announcement was “supposed to be a bit different”, he added. “We had a discussion yesterday; Poland 2050 will have a discussion on 28 June. Then we were supposed to come out together and say that this stage is closed. [But] when there are 150 people in the room, it is difficult to keep everything absolutely sterile.”
After this month’s presidential election run-off was won by PiS-backed candidate Karol Nawrocki – who defeated KO deputy leader Rafał Trzaskowski – there were questions over whether and how the government would be able to rule with a hostile president and his power of veto.
PiS leader Jarosław Kaczyński called for Tusk’s administration to step down and be replaced by an “apolitical technical government”. Figures from his party appealed to PSL, the most conservative element of the ruling coalition, to join them in bringing down the government.
However, at a vote of confidence in the government called by Tusk last week, he emerged triumphant, with all his coalition partners – PSL, Poland 2050 and The Left – joining KO in voting in favour.
The next elections scheduled in Poland are parliamentary ones that are due to take place in autumn 2027. If PSL and Poland 2050 stand as individual parties, they would have to win at least 5% of vote to enter parliament. If they stand as part of a coalition, the threshold is 8%.

EU unveils plans to bypass Hungary and Slovakia vetoes on Russian gas imports ban
The European Union has unveiled plans to legally bypass Hungary and Slovakia to ban Russian gas imports by 2027, using trade and energy laws that avoid national vetoes.
Slovakia and Hungary, which have sought to maintain close political ties with Russia, say switching to alternatives would increase energy prices. They have vowed to block sanctions on Russian energy, which require unanimous approval from all EU countries, and have opposed the ban.
The Commission based its proposed ban on EU trade and energy law to get around this, relying on support from most countries and a majority of the European Parliament.
First, imports would be banned from January 1, 2026, under any Russian pipeline gas and LNG contracts signed during the remainder of this year.
Imports under short-term Russian gas deals—those lasting less than one year—signed before June 17, 2025, would be banned from June 17 next year.
Finally, imports under existing long-term Russian contracts would be banned from January 1, 2028, effectively ending the EU's use of Russian gas by this date, the Commission said.
Hungary and Slovakia, which still import Russian gas via pipeline and have opposed the EU plans, would have until January 1, 2028, to end their imports, including those on short-term contracts.
“When the legislation is passed, all countries, of course, has to apply to it, and if they don't, then there will be legal consequences, like with any other legislation in the European Union,” Dan Jørgensen, European Commissioner for Energy and Housing said.
Russia loses market
The EU would also gradually ban liquid natural gas (LNG) terminals from providing services to Russian customers, and companies importing Russian gas would have to disclose information on their contracts to EU and national authorities.
On Monday, EU energy commissioner Dan Jørgensen said that the measures were designed to be legally strong enough for companies to invoke the contractual clause of “force majeure”–an unforeseeable event–to break their Russian gas contracts.
About 19% of Europe’s gas still comes from Russia via the TurkStream pipeline and LNG shipments, down from roughly 45% before 2022.
Companies, including TotalEnergies and Spain’s Naturgy, have Russian LNG contracts extending into the 2030s.
To replace Russian supplies, the EU has signaled it will expand clean energy and could import more LNG from the U.S.
Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands and France import Russian LNG but have all said they fully support the ban, emphasizing that it must be sufficiently robust legally to avoid exposing companies to penalties or arbitration, EU diplomats told Reuters.

Anyone knows if they’ll have everything upstreamed in the kernel?
Edit: also, if they’ll go through the trouble of getting Google to consider some form of android as verified per the Google play integrity API? (Pls work with the graphene folks)
That's the intent, at least:
Are you intending to ship a (close to) mainline kernel, or a Board Support Package (BSP)/vendor kernel and make it work with a libhybris/Halium approach?We’ll go with bare-metal Linux—no Halium, no libhybris. We want to stay as close to mainline as possible and actively contribute upstream.

Ok, interested. Looks like a project to support with real money. I'm in.
If the price of their product feels steep, it's not that bad actually. I paid over 600 € to f@ckin' Google for a device to run GrapheneOS on :o)
EU DMA
macrumors.com/2025/06/18/apple…
TL:DR
They don’t want to be forced to open features for the concurrency.
My problem with the whole situation.
The EU gets some nice features that some portion of users benefit from (AltStores , Sideloading) , but in exchange , we use other features that are far more useful. Like here , screen mirroring. There was a rumor that also AirDrop could loose/lack some functionality in the future (in EU).
It is getting ridiculous. I know that the argument „if you want an open phone , buy an android, why did you buy iPhone if you don’t want ecosystem“ is not valid as there are situations where you can’t choose (family buying only iPhone, Job only provides iPhone). But I fear that my experience and reason why I bought into the Apple ecosystem will be harmed by this over regulation.
I wanted it locked down and secure, I don’t want Google and Microsoft devices to be able to interact with my systems… the whole reason I ditched Windows and Android. Am I alone with that, anyone else who thinks so?
Apple Explains Why iPhone Mirroring Remains Unavailable in the EU on macOS Tahoe
Apple's year-old iPhone Mirroring feature is still unavailable in the European Union, and it appears that will remain the case on macOS Tahoe. ...Joe Rossignol (MacRumors.com)
Instead of being angry at the legislature forcing corporations to have some modicum of decency, you should be angry at corporations that don’t provide that by default and they act petty about it by degrading service.
Apple has dozens of billions of dollars ready to go implement anything at any given time, if they wanted to allow their services to work well in the EU with the new regulations they could (might take some time). But they won’t. Be angry at apple, not the DMA.
Antropologisia elokuvia yöttömään yöhön
Liikkuva kuva antaa meille hetkeksi luvan paeta arkitodellisuutta. Eri lajityypit herättävät myös syviä tunteita; ne saattavat saada hikikarpalot valumaan otsalle jännityksestä tai kutsuvat laittamaan aivot narikkaan. Toimituksemme suosittelee kymmentä antropologiasta ammentavaa elokuvaa kesän kuluksi.
Elokuva on laajalle yleisölle helpoimmin lähestyttävä media antropologian tieteenalan ymmärtämiseen, mikä on osaltaan vaikuttanut dokumentaarisen, etnografisen elokuvan suosioon. Vieraiden kulttuurien tapojen näyttäminen tekee niistä todentuntuisempia pelkän kirjallisen kuvailun sijaan.
Samasta syystä etnografisen elokuvan luomaa visuaalista perinnettä on sovellettu useissa fiktiivisissä elokuvissa, joiden representaation totuudenmukaisuutta antropologit ovat vuorostaan hanakoita arvioimaan.
Elokuvantekijät tuntuvat myös mieltyneen antropologin henkilöhahmoon. Tutkija Jeremy MacClancyn tekemän selvityksen mukaan antropologit ovat eri tieteenalojen edustajista useimmin popularisoituja fiktiossa, jossa he tyypillisesti ottavat joko sankarin, ressukan tai pahiksen roolin.
MacClancyn mukaan suosion syy piilee siinä, että antropologi on oiva hahmo pohjustamaan juonikehityksessä maantieteellisiä siirtymiä, minkä lisäksi hän mahdollistaa esimerkiksi kulttuurieroihin tai tutkimusetiikkaan liittyvien kysymysten käsittelyn osana tarinaa.
Selvityksestä inspiroituneena olemme koonneet lukijoillemme kymmenen antropologiasta eri tavoin inspiroituneen elokuvan listan. Monet yllä mainitut näkökulmat tulevat valinnoissa tavalla tai toisella esiin.
Elokuvasuositusten myötä AntroBlogin toimitus jää kesätauolle, ja palaamme uusin aihein jälleen syyskuussa. Toivotamme lukijoillemme viihtyisää kesää liikkuvan kuvan äärellä!
1. Loputon yö (Midsommar) – Ari Aster 2019, kauhu
Perhetragediasta toipuva yhdysvaltalainen psykologian opiskelija Dani lähtee antropologipoikaystävänsä ja tämän opiskelukavereiden kanssa juhlimaan juhannusta kuvitteelliseen Hårgan ihanneyhteisöön Ruotsiin saadakseen muuta ajateltavaa. Alkuun hårgalaiset muistuttavat hippiliikkeestä ja kansanuskosta lainaavaa vaihtoehtoyhteisöä, jonka kulttuuriperinteitä antropologit ovat tulleet tutkimaan keskelle kauneinta kesää. Ihanneyhteisön kulissi alkaa kuitenkin pian rakoilla, kun yhteisöstä paljastuu kulttimaisia piirteitä. Samalla antropologien tutkimusetiikka asettuu kyseenalaiseksi. Lopulta Danin ja antropologien täytyy tahoillaan punnita, kuinka pitkälle heidän ymmärryksensä vieraita kulttuureja kohtaan kantaa.

2. Jurassic Park – Steven Spielberg 1993, scifi
Biologisesta antropologiasta väitelleen Michael Crichtonin romaaniin perustuvassa tieteisseikkailussa joukko asiantuntijoita kutsutaan arvioimaan Costa Ricaan rakentuvan teemapuiston turvallisuutta. Vieraiden yllätykseksi puiston vetonaulana toimivat geeniteknologian avulla henkiin herätetyt dinosaurukset. Vierailu ei suju aivan suunnitelmien mukaan, ja hirmuliskot osoittautuvat fossiileihin perustuvia oletuksia älykkäämmiksi. Jurassic Park on hyvä esimerkki siitä, miten fiktiivinen teos muokkaa elettyä todellisuutta: elokuva popularisoi ajatusta sukupuuttoon kuolleiden eliöiden henkiin herättämisestä, mitä on esitetty yhdenlaisena – joskin kiistanalaisena – vastauksena nykyiseen lajikatoon. Show’n varastava kaaosteoreetikko Ian Malcolm puolestaan esitteli maailmalle akateemisen rocktähden arkkityypin hyvän aikaa ennen kuin henkilöbrändäys hiipi yliopistomaailmaan.

3. The Woman King – Gina Prince-Bythewood 2022, toiminta
Länsiafrikkalaiseen Dahomeyn kuningaskuntaan 1820-luvulle sijoittuvan elokuvan päähenkilö on omatahtoinen Nawi, jonka ottoisä lähettää kuningas Ghezon agoji-naissotureista eli minoista koostuvan rykmentin oppiin. Kenraali Naniscan johtamista, kovan harjoittelun ja veristen taistelujen yhteenhitsaamista agojeista Nawi löytää perheen. Agojien taidoille tulee käyttöä, kun Dahomey käy sotaan orjakaupalla rikastunutta Oyon kuningaskuntaa vastaan. Samalla Naniscalle avautuu tie kpojiton, naiskuninkaan, korkea-arvoiseen asemaan, mutta suhde Nawiin vaarantaa nimityksen. Löyhästi tositapahtumiin perustuva elokuva kommentoi kolonialismia feministisestä näkökulmasta. Antropologit ovat kritisoineet elokuvaa, sillä se peittelee agojien roolia transatlanttisen orjakaupan mahdollistajina. Dahomey toimi orjakaupan keskuksena 1860-luvulle saakka.

4. Kadonnut maailma (The Lost World) – Harry O. Hoyt 1925, seikkailu
Arthur Conan Doylen romaaniin perustuva mykkäfilmi on klassinen kolonialistinen seikkailuelokuva, jossa rymistellään kaukomailla tieteen nimissä. Tuittupäinen antropologi George Edward Challenger saa käsiinsä kadonneen tutkimusmatkailijan päiväkirjan, joka vakuuttaa hänet esihistoriallisten eläinten olemassaolosta Etelä-Amerikan syrjäseuduilla. Challengerin luotsaama peribrittiläinen retkikunta kantajineen ja hovimestareineen löytää tiensä salaperäiselle ylängölle, missä he joutuvat vastakkain hirmuliskojen ja ihmisapinoiden kanssa. Satavuotiaan elokuvan huolellisesti valmistellut erikoistehosteet jaksavat edelleen hätkähdyttää. Vuonna 1996 fiktiivisen professori Challengerin työtä kunnioitettiin antamalla uudelle Brasiliasta löydetylle dinosaurukselle nimeksiIrritator challengeri. Kyseessä on ainoa antropologin mukaan nimetty hirmuliskolaji.

5. Je’vida – Katja Gauriloff 2023, draama
Kolmessa aikatasossa kulkeva, ensimmäinen koltansaameksi tehty pitkä elokuva, Je’vida, kertoo samannimisen tytön kasvutarinan. Elokuvassa Je’vida lähetetään lapsena kotitilaltaan asuntolakouluun, jossa hänet pakkosuomalaistetaan. Aikuiseksi vartuttuaan hän jättää saamelaisidentiteetin ja äidinkielen taakseen, kunnes siskon kuolema pakottaa Je’vidan palaamaan kotitilalleen ja kohtaamaan pakkosuomalaistamisen aiheuttaman ylisukupolvisen trauman. Mustavalkoisen teoksen visuaalinen ilme viittaa etnografisiin valokuviin, joita käytettiin saamelaisten eksotisointiin vuosikymmenten ajan. Elokuvalla kolttasaamelainen ohjaaja Gauriloff on halunnut palauttaa valokuvista tutun estetiikan takaisin kansalleen.

Embrace of the Serpent tarjoaa vaihtoehtoisen näkökulman tutulle viidakkoseikkailun asetelmalle. Kolumbian Amazoniaan sijoittuvassa mustavalkoelokuvassa seurataan Karamakatea, kansansa viimeistä shamaania, hänen opastaessaan kahta länsimaista tutkijaa salaperäisen pyhän kasvin jäljille: ensin saksalaista antropologia vuonna 1909, sitten yhdysvaltalaista kasvitieteilijää vuonna 1940. Tarinassa sademetsän vaarat kumpuavat kolonialismin aikaansaamasta väkivaltaisesta todellisuudesta. Villieläinten sijaan Karamakate matkakumppaneineen joutuu väistelemään lähetyssaarnaajia, sotilaita ja orjatyövoimalla toimivia kumiplantaaseja. Elokuva pohtii tietoon ja olemassaoloon liittyviä valtakysymyksiä. Kenen etua pyhän kasvin löytyminen palvelee? Entä miksi epäluuloinen Karamakate haluaa johdattaa tutkijoita sen luokse kerta toisensa jälkeen?

Antropologisesta näkökulmasta kiinnostavasti kapitalismia, amerikkalaista imperialismia ja eteläkorealaista luokkayhteiskuntaa kritisoivassa mustassa komediassa Kimin perhe yrittää raapia rahaa kasaan selvitäkseen seuraavaan kuuhun. Poika Ki-woon ystävä lahjoittaa tälle suseokin (수석), oppineiden kiven, joka lupaa perheelle onnea ja menestystä. Ystävä myös järjestää Ki-woon upporikkaan Parkin perheen englanninopettajaksi, vaikka tältä puuttuvat vaadittavat todistukset. Huijaus onnistuu, ja pian Ki-woo on keplotellut koko Kimin perheen hyväuskoisten Parkien leipiin. Ainoastaan pitkäaikaisesta kotiapulaisesta eroonpääsy aiheuttaa päänvaivaa, sillä tällä on salaisuus, joka sitoo hänet isäntäperheen kotitaloon. Kun Parkit lähtevät pois kotoa, Kimien elostelu alkaa ja tapahtumat karkaavat nopeasti käsistä. Oppineiden kiven lupaus paremmasta elämästä kääntyy lopulta kiroukseksi.

8. Taistelu tulesta (Quest for Fire) – Jean-Jacques Annaud 1981, fantasia
Pieni neandertalinihmisten yhteisö joutuu hyökkäyksen kohteeksi, minkä seurauksena heidän tulisijansa sammuu. Koska yhteisö ei tunne tulenteon saloja, lähettävät he kolme jäsentään lainaamaan naapureidensa valkeaa läpi villipetojen ja kannibaalien kansoittaman erämaan. Elokuvassa ei ole dialogia, vaan hahmot kommunikoivat keskenään eleillä, ilmeillä ja örinällä. Todentuntuisuudestaan huolimatta Taistelua tulesta on kritisoitu runsaista asiavirheistään. Se esittää paleoliittisen arjen jokapäiväisenä selviytymistaisteluna, mikä ei arkeologisen ja antropologisen aineiston perusteella pidä paikkaansa. Silti elokuvan näkemys esihistoriallisten ihmisten tulenkäytöstä ei ole täysin tuulesta temmattu: niin neandertalit kuin nykyihmiset näyttävät keksineen ja unohtaneen tulenteon salat useita kertoja historiansa aikana, sillä tulta ei ole aina tarvittu elämiseen.

Pakahduttavassa ensirakkauden kuvauksessa 17-vuotias Elio viettää vanhempiensa kanssa kesää Pohjois-Italiassa, kun Elion professori-isän vieraaksi saapuu amerikkalainen antiikin filosofian tutkija Oliver. Ohikiitävät päivät täyttyvät vetelehtimisestä, jonka lomassa nuori Elio ja vanhempi Oliver lähentyvät – kunnes kesä vääjäämättä loppuu ja ensirakkauden taika raukeaa. Vaikka antropologialla ei olekaan ajan kulumisen, seksuaalisuuden heräämisen ja ystävyyden tematiikkaa käsittelevässä elokuvassa pääroolia, tuotannossa oli mukana kulttuuriantropologi Carlo Antonelli. Hän vastasi onnistuneesta henkilökehityksestä ja 80-luvun ajankuvasta, joita mestarillinen puvustus, lavastus ja ääniraita tukevat.

10. Jumalan kaupunki (Cidade de Deus) – Fernando Meirelles ja Kátia Lund 2002, rikos
Raketti elää nuoruuttaan 70-luvulla Jumalan kaupungiksi nimetyssä Rio de Janeiron favelassa Brasiliassa. Elämä on näköalatonta, väkivalta arkipäivää ja ihmishenki halpa. Raketti haaveilee poispääsystä, sillä ainoa tapa menestyä favelassa on tehtailla ryöstöjä, myydä huumeita ja tappaa muita, eikä hänestä ole siihen. Pikku-Zé on tehnyt päinvastaisen valinnan ja nousee Jumalan kaupunkia hallitsevan jengin johtoon. Tarinan edetessä Raketin ja Pikku-Zén kohtalot kietoutuvat yhteen. Tositapahtumiin perustuva elokuva pohjaa antropologi Paulo Linsin samannimiseen kirjaan, ja sen kuvaustyyli edustaa antropologi Jean Rouchin kehittämän, dokumentaarisuutta ja fiktiota yhdistävän etnofiktion perinnettä.

The Arduous March is over. That doesn't mean the DPRK is a magical paradise or anything, but that's in a state that was bombed into oblivion and was the target of genocide. If the US adopted more DPRK economic policies, then it would indeed see the improvements Yogthos listed.
I don't really think you're owning anyone here, it's just coming across as you jumping to insults when you've been confronted with an alternate viewpoint instead of trying to do any research or understanding. You just jump to "Marxism bad, Marxists unintelligent."

in reply to redsand • • •I don't even understand what you're insinuating. The DPRK's goal is to be sanctioned? They wouldn't be doing things differently if they weren't sanctioned? You know they violate the sanctions constantly, and often it's just to do some small amount of normal trade, right?
I don't like Juche, but the point of it in this context isn't to avoid trading with countries, and indeed to considers it better to be able to trade with countries. The goal is to be able to survive not being able to trade in the case where that's the unfortunate reality, something that was only solidified by the experience of the Arduous March. Strategically, it is obviously something they should be maintaining and one of the main reasons they survived.

"The number of Korean dead, injured or missing by war's end approached three million, ten percent of the overall population. The majority of those killed were in the North, which had half of the population of the South; although the DPRK does not have official figures, possibly twelve to fifteen percent of the population was killed in the war, a figure close to or surpassing the proportion of Soviet citizens killed in World War II...
Russian accusations of indiscriminate attacks on civilian targets did not register with the Americans at all. But for the North Koreans, living in fear of B-29 attacks for nearly three years, including the possibility of atomic bombs, the American air war left a deep and lasting impression. The DPRK government never forgot the lesson of North Korea's vulnerability to American air attack, and for half a century after the Armistice continued to strengthen anti-aircraft defenses, build underground installations, and eventually develop nuclear weapons to ensure that North Korea would not find itself in such a position again... The war against the United States, more than any other single factor, gave North Koreans a collective sense of anxiety and fear of outside threats that would continue long after the war's end."
- Charles Armstrong, The Destruction and Reconstruction of North Korea

in reply to ☂️- • • •Huh? It sounded like you were saying they were sanctioned for a reason because of supporting the resistance. I was saying they have every reason to support and fight against America and their dogs.
Unless you mean it in a "they were sanctioned because they were based" way, then I get it.
