[Opinion] EU needs to build 'drone wall' fast - and exclude Hungary and Slovakia for now
On Friday, a pivotal meeting will take place as ministers of defence from seven eastern EU member states plus Ukraine and the EU Commission for talks on building a 'drone wall'. Initially, Slovakia and Hungary were not invited — a reflection of the risk their participation could pose to a frank discussion about the Russian threat and Europe's plans to defend itself.

Artix Linux drop support for GNOME
Some of you have probably seen the blog post a few months ago about how GNOME is more strongly depending on systemd. The changes mentioned there have landed into the latest stable versions of the mentioned software (GNOME 49) and do affect us. In particular, the main culprit is the removal of the non-systemd fallback code in gnome-session. This makes it currently impossible to launch gnome-shell/mutter on a non-systemd system. A fairly straightforward patch of using elogind, like what was previously done, no longer works either.
Since we don't have the time or interest to write a new non-systemd codepath for gnome-session, this means that all support for gnome-based desktops has to be dropped. In particular, the affected packages would be gnome-session, gnome-shell, mutter, and gnome-settings-daemon. For now, the old versions are still in the repos but because there is so much intertwining between other gtk/gnome packages, there is no guarantee they actually work and will later be removed from our repos.
Standalone gnome applications will still continue to be packaged, but it is simply not feasible anymore to support gnome desktops without systemd.

Apple calls for changes to anti-monopoly laws and says it may stop shipping to the EU
Apple has called for the European Commission to repeal a swathe of technology legislation, warning that unless it is amended the company could stop shipping some products and services to the 27-country bloc.The Silicon Valley company hit out in a submission to the commission’s review of the three-year-old anti-monopoly legislation, which is intended to regulate the gatekeeper power of the largest digital companies including search engines, app providers and messaging services.
It said it had already delayed the launch of features such as live translation through AirPods and mirroring iPhone screens on to laptop because of the act’s demands for interoperability with non-Apple products and services.
“The DMA means the list of delayed features in the EU will probably get longer, and our EU users’ experience on Apple products will fall further behind,” it said. Apple added that Brussels was creating unfair competition as the rules were not applied to Samsung, the largest smartphone provider in the EU.

Top pro-Israel TPUSA donor terminated support for Kirk in days before death, sources say
Catty-corner from the Freedom Center is the Pearson Building. According to a TPUSA insider, this structure was to be emblazoned with the name of one of Kirk’s largest and most committed backers, the tech mogul Robert Shillman. A pre-eminent funder of right-wing Zionist and anti-Muslim causes across the Atlantic, Shillman’s millions helped transform Kirk from a young age into one of Israel’s most effective gentile assets.
However, as Kirk drifted from the official, Netanyahu-enforced line on Israel in the past year, expressing frustration with onerous demands from Zionist donors and hosting the leading conservative critics of Israel at his TPUSA events, Shillman apparently grew resentful.
A TPUSA insider has told The Grayzone that Shillman recently cancelled plans to erect the plaque bearing his name inside the conservative organization’s office complex. Those who contribute $1 million or more to TPUSA become eligible for an honorary plaque, but Shillman’s donations were said to be considerably higher.

📜 Cronache dalla Bolla Fediversiana 🫧
🌀 Nel Fediverso (anzi, nel mio caro Mastodon 💜) noto che sì, la gente è un po’ meno… ma l’atmosfera è migliorata di brutto!
Certo, ogni tanto spunta ancora quello che sale sul piedistallo per fare il discorso da oracolo ✨📢, ma in generale il clima è più leggero e piacevole.
Sì, siamo meno, probabilmente ci stiamo creando la nostra piccola bolla… ma sapete una cosa? Io qui sto meglio di prima. E non ho nessuna voglia di fare paragoni con i social commerciali.

Whizzing up some Centennial Incognito
Incognito | HAAS®
Incognito is a 100% all-natural hop product crafted to deliver highly concentrated flavor while maximizing brewing efficiency and reducing process loss.Haas
It’s intriguing to me. For professionals (even or especially small ones) the loss of product to vegetable matter is a significant concern especially in jurisdictions that are taxed on the wort rather than the product. I’ve heard of 20% or more loss, but that’s got something to do with being a tiny 3hL system and brewing triple IPAs. Still, it is expensive to throw away so much product.
One of the problems, I think, with nonalcoholic beer is that some of the compounds we like best in hops are not water soluble and depend on the alcohol to pull them out of the dry hopping. I wonder if this product changes that calculus.

Even if they are extracted into this fluid (for example, with polyalcohols, maybe just sugars), they still might crash on "fermentation" of nonalcoholic beer, whatever process is used. Maybe if these are strictly nonfermentable polyalcohols and at the same time highly soluble in various conditions (maybe even at 0C fermentation, as one of possible production ways), this might work indeed.

China Sets First Absolute Emissions Cut Target for 2035, Falling Short of Paris Path
cross-posted from: lemmy.sdf.org/post/42916278
Archived[...]
China has pledged for the first time to cut its greenhouse gas emissions in absolute terms, committing to reduce economy-wide net emissions by 7–10% from peak levels by 2035, “striving to do better.” President Xi Jinping announced the target in a video address to a high-level climate summit in New York convened by UN Secretary-General António Guterres during the General Assembly.
[...]
Experts welcomed the structural shift to an absolute cut but judged the ambition insufficient for a 1.5°C pathway. “Anything less than 30% is not aligned with 1.5 degrees,” said Lauri Myllyvirta of the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA). Greenpeace East Asia’s Yao Zhe said the plan “still falls short,” even for tempered expectations. Belinda Schäpe, a China policy analyst at CREA, framed the pledge as politically cautious and argued China’s clean-energy boom could still deliver reductions of 30% or more by 2035 if current trends hold. In her words, today’s announcement should be viewed as the floor, not the ceiling.

Australian Under 16 media ban is censorship by stealth and data harvesting by law
The comments around the under 16 media ban seem to be missing a salient point.
In order to determine if a user is under 16, you need to determine that for every single user .. including you!
This means that your personal data will be harvested in order to determine if you are over 16 or not.
Ummm, they already harvest your personal data to that extent. I guess some of the really paranoid might be caught in the wider net but honestly if you're that paranoid then you're probably not using social media directly anyway. The media too is bringing up this point in that it's a privacy concern but the internet is far less private than 99% of people think anyway, it's a data security concern but not a privacy concern.
Now, the recent age-checking for porn introduced by the e-Karen without any parliamentary or even media debate, that's something to be concerned about.

How could I order a package without my parents finding it?
Hey!
There's some things I am planning on ordering, and I'd like to get them delivered without my parents knowing.
The things in question are some 23w CFL bulbs, e27 sockets, PC fans and a power strip.
I was originally planning on just buying them in person, but literally no shops near me have them.
I can't actually find them anywhere but the american version of amazon -- my country's (Ireland) version of amazon doesn't have them.
I asked a few friends if I could send the things to their house, and get it through them, but all of them said no.
Trump’s Border Czar Involved in Detention Contract Talks Despite Recusal
Stephen Miller’s Hypocrisy Is Right There in His Speech
cross-posted from: sh.itjust.works/post/46700344
Link without paywall:
aol.com/news/stephen-miller-hy…Yesterday, Stephen Miller delivered a eulogy for Charlie Kirk that served as a battle cry for the Trump administration’s state-sponsored war on his perceived foes—a war for which Miller is the primary strategist. The speech was a jarring piece of rhetoric. It is a perfect encapsulation of the ethos of Trumpism, boiling away the president’s idiosyncratic habits of mixing insult comedy and weird digressions into his rhetoric and leaving, in Miller’s tongue, the residue of pure ideology and will to power.
Miller’s theme was that President Donald Trump’s side embodies pure good, his opponents pure evil, and the former is destined to utterly destroy the latter. Republicans have never stopped complaining that Hillary Clinton once described a portion of Trump’s base as “a basket of deplorables.” Yet over the weekend the president’s most powerful adviser depicted half the country as worthless, irredeemably wicked, and fated for destruction.

Sharing File
How are you sharing files between two party, with which system, app, site, etc.
I want to share some PDF with a friend but I’m becoming really tired of the old Google Drive. So any option is appreciated.
Also I’m finding myself always in the need to share a PDF or a file with an anonymous lemmy user if your option could work in this situation that will be great
ProjectSend - Secure File Sharing Made Simple
Free, open-source, self-hosted file sharing solution for businesses. Share files securely with clients while maintaining complete control.ProjectSend
Personally I'm quite big fan of self-hosting, but if you want less a hassle, def try some of the other suggestions.
Since you're interested in anon file sharing, I'd really recommend you take some time to really think out just what your personal definition of anonymous is, and how well it fits in modern digital infrastructure. True anonymous activity is nearly impossible, you can be fingerprinted by even writing a file to a drive to hand to someone. Every action taken online has some trace to it, while IP is generally not precise information, with enough data overlap you can be reasonably guessed depending on how much effort someone is willing to put into it.
So you know, good luck finding a balance lol.
