Can't speak for any of the other countries but Canada doesn't mean it, at least not the Canadians with the actual power to do anything about it. Canadian government will never meaningfully recognize Palestine (words aren't recognition when we do nothing about our own corporations selling arms to Israel) because that opens up inconvenient questions about our own settler roots.

Deux projets en Suisse veulent imposer une vérification obligatoire de l’âge sur les réseaux sociaux : la pétition déposée à la confédération intitulée “Schützt unsere Kinder – Social Media erst ab 16” et le projet de loi LPnum porté par les Verts. L’intention affichée est légitime : protéger les jeunes face aux risques liés à l’usage intensif des plateformes numériques. Mais la solution proposée est dangereuse, disproportionnée et inefficace.
HTTPS, anciennement Parti Pirate Vaudois, défend les libertés numériques, la vie privée et un Internet ouvert. Pour nous, ces projets sont une mauvaise réponse à un vrai problème.
Une mesure intrusive qui menace nos droits fondamentaux
Vérifier l’âge peut sembler anodin au premier abord, mais dans la pratique, c’est une mesure intrusive qui remet en cause plusieurs droits essentiels. Elle porte atteinte à la vie privée, car toute vérification impose de fournir des documents d’identité, des données biométriques ou de passer par un tiers de confiance. Dès lors se posent les questions fondamentales : qui stockera ces données, qui y aura accès et quelles garanties existeront contre les fuites et les abus ?
Cette obligation signe aussi la fin du pseudonymat en ligne. Or, de nombreux utilisateurs — journalistes, militants, victimes de violence de tous âges — dépendent de la possibilité de s’exprimer sous un nom d’emprunt pour se protéger. Imposer une preuve d’identité reviendrait à supprimer cette protection essentielle.
Les risques de censure sont également importants. Les catégories de contenus interdits aux mineurs sont souvent définies de manière vague, et l’expérience montre que cela aboutit à restreindre l’accès à des informations légitimes. Des ressources éducatives sur la santé, la sexualité, l’éducation ou encore les droits humains se sont déjà retrouvées bloquées au nom d’une protection mal définie.
L’exemple de ciao.ch, une plateforme suisse de prévention et de dialogue destinée aux jeunes, illustre parfaitement ce danger. Bien que ce site ait pour objectif de soutenir les adolescents et de répondre à leurs questions sensibles, il pourrait être considéré comme un “réseau social” et se voir interdit ou fortement limité par ce type de législation. Il serait particulièrement contre-productif que des projets censés protéger la jeunesse restreignent l’accès à un outil pensé justement pour l’accompagner.
Enfin, une telle mesure accentuerait l’exclusion numérique. Tout le monde n’a pas un accès facile à des papiers d’identité reconnus, à un système de vérification numérique ou aux compétences pour les utiliser. Les personnes sans-papiers, migrantes, âgées ou en situation précaire risqueraient de se voir exclues d’une partie de l’espace numérique. Ces personnes seraient alors privées des contacts avec leurs proches ou leur communauté.
Quand les experts sonnent l’alarme
L’Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), organisation internationale de défense des libertés numériques, a documenté les effets pervers de ces mesures. Elle montre que la vérification d’âge produit un effet dissuasif même sur les adultes, qui hésitent à consulter certains contenus par crainte d’être surveillés. Cet effet a déjà des conséquences concrètes observables, puisque de nombreux créateurs de contenue pratiquent une autocensure avérée lorsqu’il s’agit de parler de sujets historiques ou de santé, cela pour se conformer à l’opinion ou aux allégeances politiques des propriétaires des réseaux sociaux, qui constituent leur moyen d’expression publique principal. Sur Youtube, les vulgarisateurs doivent aujourd’hui user de périphrases ridicules lorsqu’ils produisent du contenu sur l’histoire du milieu du XXe siècle ; il en va de même pour les associations de prévention contre le viol ou l’inceste. Cela crée un dangereux effet de minimisation du propos et nuit gravement à des messages d’intérêt public majeur.
Elle alerte aussi sur les dérives vers une surveillance généralisée, où l’identité deviendrait une condition préalable à chaque action en ligne. Enfin, elle démontre que ces dispositifs restreignent souvent l’accès à des contenus éducatifs ou communautaires, en particulier pour les jeunes LGBTQ+.
Des alternatives plus sûres et plus efficaces
Protéger les enfants et les adolescents est une nécessité. Mais cette mission ne doit pas justifier la mise en place d’un système de contrôle généralisé. D’autres solutions existent et devraient être privilégiées. L’éducation numérique, par exemple, permet de donner aux jeunes les outils pour comprendre et gérer les risques en ligne. Les familles peuvent être accompagnées avec des outils de contrôle parental qui leur permettent de réguler l’usage des écrans sans imposer de restrictions à l’ensemble de la société.
La transparence des plateformes doit aussi être exigée : il est temps que les réseaux sociaux rendent publics leurs algorithmes, leurs pratiques de modération et leurs effets sur la santé des jeunes. Enfin, des réglementations ciblées, comme l’interdiction des publicités abusives ou la limitation des fonctionnalités addictives, seraient bien plus efficaces que l’imposition d’une vérification d’identité pour tous. L’interopérabilité et la portabilité entre les plateformes permettra aussi de s’en extirper sans perdre les contacts que l’on s’y est fait en passant d’une plateforme à l’autre. Cela limiterait la dépendance aux plateformes existantes et offrirait l’opportunité à de nouvelles plateformes de voir le jour sur des paradigmes différents.
Conclusion : protéger les enfants sans sacrifier nos libertés
L’obligation de prouver son âge sur les réseaux sociaux semble protectrice, mais elle est en réalité dangereuse et contre-productive. Elle ouvrirait la porte à un Internet surveillé, centralisé et inégalitaire, sans garantir une véritable protection des jeunes.
La meilleure façon de protéger les enfants n’est pas de contrôler toute la population, mais de renforcer l’éducation, la responsabilité et la transparence des plateformes.
Le Parti HTTPS-VD s’oppose donc clairement à ces projets. C’est uniquement en garantissant en premier lieu la protection de la vie privée, de la liberté d’expression et de l’accès à la connaissance que nous pourront garantir la protection de nos enfants et de leur avenir.

404 Media has filed a lawsuit against ICE for access to its contract with Paragon, a company that sells powerful spyware for breaking into phones and accessing encrypted messaging apps.
On Monday 404 Media filed a lawsuit against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) demanding the agency publish its $2 million contract with Paragon, a company that makes powerful spyware that can remotely break into mobile phones without the target even clicking a link. The sale of the spyware to ICE has activists and lawmakers deeply concerned about what the agency, which continues to push the Trump administration’s mass deportation effort, may use the technology for. The contract and related documents 404 Media is suing for may provide more information on what ICE intends to do with the spyware.
“404 Media has asked ICE to disclose agency records relating to its contract with a company known for its powerful spyware tool whose potential use in the agency’s ongoing mass-deportation campaign has prompted lawmakers, civil liberties organizations, and immigration groups to express deep concerns over potential civil rights abuses,” the lawsuit says.
404 Media first filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with ICE for documents related to its Paragon purchase in September 2024. Under the law, agencies are required to provide a response within 20 days, or provide an explanation of why they need more time. ICE acknowledged receipt of the request in September 2024, but has not since replied to any follow up inquiries. 404 Media then filed the lawsuit.
We’re Suing ICE for Its $2 Million Spyware Contract

💡 Do you know anything else about Paragon, this contract, or any others? I would love to hear from you. Using a non-work device, you can message me securely on Signal at joseph.404 or send me an email at joseph@404media.co.
The contract itself is for “a fully configured proprietary solution including license, hardware, warranty, maintenance, and training,” according to a description included in a public U.S. procurement database. The funding office for the purchase is listed as a division of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI). It is not clear if the ICE deal is for a custom-made tool or for some version of Paragon’s flagship “Graphite” software.
Graphite is capable of letting police remotely break into messaging apps like WhatsApp, Signal, Facebook Messenger, and Gmail according to a 2021 report from Forbes. While other government spyware tries to take over an entire device allowing all sorts of other capabilities, Paragon sets itself apart by promising to access just the messaging applications, according to Forbes.
Still, that is an exceptionally powerful capability which can skirt the protections offered by end-to-end encrypted apps, and one that is likely very attractive to law enforcement or some intelligence agencies. In March researchers from Citizen Lab, an academic group that investigates the government spyware industry, said they identified suspected Paragon deployments in Australia, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, Israel, and Singapore. Separately the New York Times reported that the DEA has used Graphite.
Citizen Labs’ researchers said they shared their analysis with Meta, which in turn discovered an active Paragon zero-click exploit for WhatsApp. It involved the attacker adding a target to a WhatApp group and sending them a PDF which automatically infected the device. This meant Paragon’s software could hack into a target phone through its WhatsApp client without any target interaction. Later WhatsApp notified more than 90 people it believed had been targeted with Paragon’s exploit. playlist.megaphone.fm?p=TBIEA2… Some of those targets were in Italy, including prominent Italian and other European journalists, and activists who rescue refugees at sea. Those revelations have since ballooned into a full-scale political crisis, with parliamentary inquiries and The Guardian reporting that Paragon cancelled its contract with Italy.
Paragon has positioned itself as a more ethical player in the scandal and abuse-ridden government spyware industry. Tools from other vendors stretching back years, from Hacking Team, to FinFisher, to NSO Group, have all been used at some point to spy on journalists or activists. Like the notorious NSO Group, which also tried to enter the U.S. market, Paragon is based in Israel.
After ICE reactivated its Paragon contract, Senator Ron Wyden said in a statement to Bloomberg “ICE is already shredding due process and ruining lives in its rush to lock up kids, cooks and firefighters who pose no threat to anyone.”
“I’m extremely concerned about how ICE will use Paragon’s spyware to further trample on the rights of Americans and anyone who Donald Trump labels as an enemy,” he added.

Most services ask for your email address and/or recovery key to recover your account. LinkedIn, on the other hand, goes full surveillance mode. It wants my actual government ID to give access to my account.
If this was critical banking service, I would have understood. But it is freakin LinkedIn, the most I have got out of that place is actual lunatics.
I had to do the same thing yesterday and used my passport and selfie. I then got a notice from LinkedIn saying it wasn’t enough and they want a second ID.
The horror! I detest that website with my all. It was one of the earliest places I saw a nasty dark pattern. They would bait you to pay to see who viewed your profile, preying on job seekers desperate for a signal that something may come their way. Nasty evil people those!
Do you have to verify your identity? I know in the past you had that option but didn't have to do it. But they just changed their terms of service so is this part of that?
I don't generally use LinkedIn. I opened it today after long time and got logged out and was shown this.
It is ironical because Microsoft owns LinkedIn but for rescuing a Microsoft account (which is arguably more important because emails at the least are linked to it. And then there is One drive, Authenticator apps and what not) none of this is required. But for rescuing what is essentially a fruitless social network, they need an ID.
Honestly as someone who would wish nothing more than having to stop using linkedin...yeah they can close my account.
The only thing I use it for is arguing with tech bros and calling them morons so as to drum up my own clients. that works. beyond that it's absolutely useless. I just wouldn't bother with them, close your account, you'll be better off.
Every day I am overcome with rage and shame at videos like this. When will the depravity end? What else can I do to make it stop? We got our local city to divest from Israel and that was definitely something, but it just feels like no matter what we do it's never enough. We must live with the resilience and steadfastness that the Palestinian people have shown us time and time again. Anything less than that is turning our backs on them I feel.
(23 September - Geneva) As Egypt makes a bid for election to the United Nations Human Rights Council, compelling evidence has emerged that implicates the Egyptian government and its military in the commission of war crimes and potential crimes agai…
By US law Egypt is ineligible to receive any US aid, which they do, and without the US their military would be about completely useless.
Because they overthrew a democracy elected government when they got tacit Western support because the democratically elected leader was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.
For Egypt to be given the chair of this seat is just beyond the pale, it is like getting Saudi Arabia the climate change conference. Nothing matters anymore.
Torture, murder, total lack of due process rights for the accused, kangaroo courts, you name it. We have evidence that Egypt has tortured people because we still have the receipt when the US handed them people to torture for us in extraordinary rendition.

Ultimamente ho scoperto un nuovissimo meme: “immagina che hai la sveglia per prendere l’insulina, perché hai il diabete, ma Android si dimentica e quindi MUORI“… e vabbé, ma neanche a fà così, ho pensato… Però immagina più semplicemente di avere una sveglia perché ti devi svegliare, ma Android si dimentica e quindi ti licenziano a […]
quando Android sta zitto, la morte arriva!!! (strano bug di Android per cui la sveglia non suona)
Ultimamente ho scoperto un nuovissimo meme: “immagina che hai la sveglia per prendere l’insulina, perché hai il diabete, ma Android si dimentica e quindi MUORI“… e vabbé, ma neanche a fà così, ho pensato… Però immagina più semplicemente di avere una sveglia perché ti devi svegliare, ma Android si dimentica e quindi ti licenziano a lavoro, o boh, cose del genere… Se questi scenari non mi facessero sotto sotto ridere malamente, ci sarebbe oggettivamente da piangere, perché la situazione, per quanto ipotetica sembra, in realtà è realissima, e appunto non è buona. 👄
Ironicamente, visto quante rogne ho di continuo con Android e quindi lo odio, questa è una delle poche cose con cui io non ho mai avuto problemi… sia sullo Ximi, sia sul tablet, sia sul Huawi vecchio (e sull’S5 Mini non so, perché a 11-13 anni non usavo la sveglia, erano altri tempi), la sveglia è sempre suonata… poi io magari non la sento, ma quello è un problema di skill, non di Android. Invece, cercando online si trovano fin troppe segnalazioni di gente che o dice di vedere personalmente la sveglia che non suona (usando intanto altre sveglie, funzionanti, per svegliarsi), o di non ritrovarsi con la classica notifica di sveglia persa la mattina pur non avendola mai spenta… oppure, il colmo definitivo: nelle notifiche appare che la sveglia non è suonata per “motivi ignoti“! (Per chiarezza, sottinteso in tutti questi casi è che si usi la app Orologio di sistema, su ROM stock.) 💀 Quest’ultimo scenario è così assurdo che, se non ci fossero schermate a documentarlo, faticherei a crederci nonostante le tantissime segnalazioni, e penserei piuttosto sia un’allucinazione collettiva, perché sembra così campato per aria… ma, purtroppo è reale, e in realtà non dovrei sorprendermene, visto che c’è lo zampino di Google; perché questo particolare errore sembra in realtà specifico ai loro Pixel (e le recensioni della app su Google Play sono pesantemente negative anche per questo)… E ora non voglio fare il solito discorso per come lì a Mountain View dovrebbero smettere di produrre dei telefoni venduti come top di gamma che in realtà hanno tremila problemi che nessun cinesone Mediatek preso a caso da Amazon ha, e soprattutto come gli scemi dovrebbero smettere di comprarli, però porca miseria, è imbarazzante! Ma è possibile che che rompono il cazzo con l’IA e il cloud e vattelappesca e poi non funziona il fottuto orologio su sti telefoni schifosi??? 😭
La cosa curiosa, però, è che tutte queste lamentele sembrano di tempi piuttosto recenti. A parte queste con i Google Pixel, che sono notizia fresca di mesi, trovo qualcosa riguardo Samsung (ma sempre solo dalla bocca dei redditor e degli youtuber, quindi prenderei con cautela), ma usando i filtri di Google per cercare in anni già precedenti al 2020 si trova pochissima roba, mentre prima del 2015 non si trova quasi niente. Ci sarebbe a questo punto una teoria interessante da fare, cioè che è il doze di Android che rompe tutto, ma quello è stato introdotto solo una decina di anni fa con Marshmallow (…ricordavo Nougat, mi sbagliavo?), quindi non giustifica un’esplosione di problemi negli ultimissimi anni, specialmente perché chi ha problemi con le sveglie è comunque una minoranza dell’intera base di utenti di Android. Certamente, almeno per Samsung il risparmio energetico dell’OEM potrebbe centrare… 😖
Ho raccolto come sempre milioni di link, ordinati dalle discussioni più recenti alle più vecchie… tra cui anche qualcuna di due decenni fa, che però non fa testo, è giusto per sfizio, che in quei tempi Android era ancora un troiaio rotto tra diversi dispositivi… mica come oggi, che funziona sempre! (Ah ah ah!) memos.octt.eu.org/m/nMCrLjban7…. Boh, resta un mistero, perché per alcuni la soluzione è “pulisci la cache dell’orologio” (che è una frase così distopica che mi sento male solo a scriverla, cazzo se ODIO dove ci ha portati la tecnologia!), per altri non ci sta versi, e da quando su Android ci sono tutte le cose di risparmio energetico forzato io nemmeno mi fiderei ad usare app di sveglia terze, perché pure quelle magari non suonano (c’è una API in Android che le app a tempo possono usare per impostare timer di attivazione eh, ma non è che funzioni perfettamente e ovunque, siamo sempre lì, maremma bona)… un disastro. 💥
Hello guys, today I wanted to talk about a project I deeply care about and I'm actively contributing to, as I believe its good for everyone, including privacy concerned users
Ladybird Browser
This browser comes from the project "SerenityOS", and has since evolved and separated from it. The founders are Andreas Kling, and Chris Wanstrath. The main goal of this project is to create a browser from scratch, avoiding chromium, gecko, etc. The main keypoints that should be of interest for Privacy Oriented Users are the following:
Ladybird lead (Andreas Kling) states "We're not monetizing users, in any way. This is uncharted territory for browsers. So we're not going to do any default search deals. We're not going to do cryptocurrencies or try to monetize user data, just sponsorships and donations"
While** Ladybird will implement current web standards including cookie handling and tracking mechanisms for compatibility**, the browser's philosophy puts the user in control of these decisions, not the company. The browser won't have built-in incentives to encourage data collection since it doesn't profit from it.
It aims to be "free from advertising's influence" Ladybird, representing a shift away from the current web ecosystem where users like us are the product. This allows the project to implement privacy features without worrying about harming advertising partners or revenue streams.
As of now, the project has hired several developers with money coming from donations, from partners such as FUTO, Shopify, Cloudflare, among many, and is also seeing lots of volunteer activity on github. So well, if you like the web having more diversity and us having another alternative to google, check them outladybird.org/
Hi, as you can from see from my previous posts I installed Linux in all my machines. Now I have a PC with an I5 6500 (with Mint on it) and I'm upgrading the GPU. So, do I just open it put the new one and connect the cables? Or do I have to do some thing first? Thank you for all your help.
You don't need to change drivers strictly, just add the new ones then remove the old ones later. It's just to avoid having issues with display output on your first boot - although you should pretty much always get some video out even without the correct drivers
Really only depends on how new the new GPU is vs. how old the Kernel is.
example: If you're running Debian Stable and trying to put in an RTX 5090, you'll likely have a bad time, since neither the kernel nor Mesa support blackwell on Trixie without backporting.
If you're using a rolling release distro, just update first but you'll probably be fine already. If you're using a point release distro, make sure that release supports your hardware first.
If you're buying some older (but new to you) hardware, you'll probably be fine.
You'll be fine with anything AMD or Intel even on debian stable, since they're both active in developing their linux support, where nVidia doesn't support FOSS drivers.
If you're buying nVidia that new/powerful, you'll be better served by their proprietary drivers you can install - just keep in mind you won't be able to run very recent (and certainly not bleeding edge) kernels with the proprietary nV drivers.
You’ll be fine with anything AMD or Intel even on debian stable, since they’re both active in developing their linux support, where nVidia doesn’t support FOSS drivers.
Not strictly true any more. There are Nvidia open drivers, but they may not be in Debian yet. In fact, Nvidia recommend using the open drivers for cards it supports, which if I recall correctly, is Turing and newer.
You're thinking of firmware, not drivers. To make a GPU work, you need new enough versions of the kernel, driver and firmware. The open source drivers for Nvidia GPUs are still slower and less featureful than the proprietary ones.
As a double check (or check before buying) you can search for your new GPU on linux-hardware.org/ to see if other users have it working without any issues. The hardware probe is also a handy tool to share your PC's specs if you should ever need to do so!
You didn't say which GPU! If it's all AMD, then just replace. That's what I did and everything worked fine. If you're going from AMD to Nvidia, them install the Nvidia drivers first, turn it off, replace, turn back on

A pointed message in Simeon Brown's electorate office window has been covered with placards, as senior doctors lament the lack of New Zealand-trained doctors opting to stay here.

For years, little was known about how Ice uses Palantir’s technology. The company has consistently described itself as a “data processor” and says it does not play an active role in any of its customers’ data collection efforts or what clients do with that information.
Now, a cache of internal Ice documents – including hundreds of pages of emails between Ice and Palantir, as well as training manuals, and reports on the use of Palantir products – offer some of the first real-world examples of how Ice has used Palantir in its investigations and during on-the-ground enforcement operations.
The documents, which were obtained by immigrant legal rights group Just Futures Law through a Freedom of Information Act request and reviewed by the Guardian, largely cover Palantir’s contract with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the investigative arm of Ice that is responsible for stopping the “illegal movement of people, goods, money, contraband, weapons and sensitive technology”.
Palantir recently won a $30m contract to build the government a new platform called ImmigrationOS that will service Ice branches beyond HSI, and aims to “streamline” the identification and deportation of immigrants. While the documents are largely limited to HSI’s operations, it’s easy to see how the tools could be of use to other branches of Ice.
One document showed that agents could use Falcon to search for people’s names, known locations, vehicles or passport information against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other federal databases like the Enforcement Integrated Database (EID) – a vast database that holds biometric and personal information on anyone who has been encountered or arrested, detained or deported by any DHS agency – on the go.
In addition to collecting and analyzing field interviews, the agents used Falcon for “blueforce tracking”, a military term for tracking someone’s GPS location. Training documents show Ice agents could also use Falcon to track a person’s location, including their “route and movement”, hour by hour using cell phone tower records.
While I agree with the overall premise, it's not a great article. The author just quotes facts while drawing no relevant conclusions or wrong conclusions.
The fact that there is fraud in Estonia, like any other country, is, I imagine, due to people being stupid. In my country most fraud cases are grandmas handing off their pensions to randos to help their grandchild escape prison or to help with a super secret government mission to catch thieves. Similar to the classic Nigerian prince schemes. Not once does the author mention how digital ID's are connected to fraud or how they enabled money laundering.
I hope that the author is just not that great of a writer and not malicious because throwing in scary statistics and names like Palantir without making any conclusion as to how digital ID's could exarcebate the problem, really feels like fearmongering.
Nevertheless, I quite liked the website design and the extensive quotation of sources.
Author here, consider exploring more of the work. The text is one chapter of a larger research project around digital identity: newdesigncongress.org/everythi…
The article is the opening foreword for a larger report on digital identity that we have been publishing for the last few months. We had to pause recently, for reasons beyond our control, but everything in the article is backed up by either chapters already published on the site, or by forthcoming chapters.
Swimming in the river used to be a key facet of Chicago life, but by the 1920s, sewage and industrial runoff had made the river unsafe to swim in. According to event organizers, official swim events in the Chicago River ended in 1926.
Event organizers said the Chicago River is now at its cleanest levels on record, the result of a concerted effort to clean up, improve wastewater management and push for stricter water-quality standards.
Maintaining the health of waterways in urban areas contributes to the public health and wellness of cities, and it reduces extreme heat risks from climate change, said Margaret Frisbie, executive director of Friends of the Chicago River.
The advocacy group, founded in 1979, has long worked to protect and restore the Chicago River, for example pushing for discharge from water treatment plants to be disinfected before being released into the river, Frisbie said.
About 300 swimmers participated in the event, marveling at the clean water and festive atmosphere. Event organizers say they'll donate $100,000 to ALS research and $50,000 to fund swim lessons for about 2,000 youths at the Salvation Army’s Kroc Cente…
2.5 kg Pale Ale (Simpsons) 2.0 kg Munich Malt (Ireks) 0.5 kg Crystal Oak (Ireks)
Then the sequence:
30 L kettle, no external heating for whole volume. Mash-in 35C water. After 20 min, take 1/3 portion, heat in 10 L kettle to 65 C on induction hotplate, wait for a negative iodine-test. Boil 45 min, mostly without mixing.
Return to mixture, wait 20 min. Take 1/3 portions, heat in 10 L kettle to 65 C on induction hotplate, wait for a negative iodine-test. Boil 45 min, mostly without mixing.
Return to mixture, wait 20 min. Take liquid, boil 45 min, return.
Then sparging.
Boil for 1h, Perle hops (6 AA%), 29 g at start, Tettnanger hops (2.4 AA%), 24 g at -15 min
LAG101 yeast (German lager strain, captured in expedition to Bayern), fermented at 10+-2 C (non-heated building part with a tiny 200W heater) for about 3 weeks, then diacetyl rest at RT for about a week (feeling lazy), then bottled with light sugar priming, and into a fridge.

Profile is what we could expect from an Oktoberfest, malty body, mildly bitter with pronounced hops aroma.
I must say, it was totally worth it (and done with simplest kitchen tools and a bottle of some veterinarian drug containing iodine). With lager profile as blank canvas, this process is pretty much a show-off of what people should be really doing to make them lagers interesting.
Absolutely, it is very hard to miss. And it is easier than infusion the way people do it usually, just takes way more (passive) time. Equipment-wise, having nothing is default too, which is nice.
That's why I was calling it Märzenfest half year ago. Apparently, or at least the books say so, they were brewing this all winter, for same reasons I do this. But sure, the later brews were probably the ones that mostly survived the thrist period.
Direct buy grain from farmers. They often dump and compost the stuff, seriously, while children in Africa, you know, but shipping is often more expensive and processers have minimum amounts, farming is no charity (it really is, at prices we pay for food). You can get super easy and ethical deals. And they'll tell you what they did, if you are friendly enough, I guess. They also might even malt it themselves, lots of folks do it anyway for various reasons (moonshine).
Hops are hard though. Like all spice, they are either premium quality, or useless. And demand is higher than supply globally. But I'm pretty sure there are local substitutes everywhere, it might deviate from what we call beer, but what the heck why not?
There have been quite a few other herbs that have been used in Brewing before. Iyy is one from circa 1st millenium, the one that is used in abstinenth has been another.
I have a lot of yarrow growing wild, I think that might even be good. Burdock root has an interesting taste. I am not so delicate that I cannot experiment and not enjoy something that is less than it would be if hops.
Really? How would you describe the smell otherwise than out worldly? In a good or interesting way at all?
I know when I put burdock root in a ferment which was not barley-based but maple syrup, it had a really good and interesting complex test, maybe not best for maple syrup wine, I know it is pickled in other places of the world like Japan
I will brew this Friday. After deciding what I will do bit wild experiment with grape juice, cherries and some classic leftover ale. I will add only basic hops so the fruits came out bit stronger (SAAZ for flavour and some leftover bitter ones).
Tbh I never tried intentionally age beer that long usually it is some forgotten bottle found and I am bit surprised if it's good.
New type of detector enables deeper understanding of the universe
The underground “Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO)” near Jiangmen city in the Guangdong Province, which was prepared with the participation of researchers from the PRISMA+ Cluster of Excellence at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), has successfully completed the filling of its 20,000 tons of liquid scintillator and begun data taking. After more than a decade of preparation and construction, JUNO is the first of a new generation of very large neutrino experiments to reach this stage. Initial trial operation and data taking show that key performance indicators met or exceeded design expectations, enabling JUNO to tackle one of this decade’s major open questions in particle physics: the ordering of neutrino masses—whether the third mass state (ν₃) is heavier than the second (ν₂).
