Judge who reviewed James Comey's indictment was confused by prosecutor's handling of case, transcript shows
U.S. Magistrate Judge Lindsey Vaala expressed confusion and surprise at some points during the seven-minute court session when a federal grand jury impaneled in Alexandria, Virginia, returned the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey Thursday night.
According to a transcript of the proceedings obtained by CBS News, Judge Vaala asked the newly named interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan — a former Trump personal lawyer — why there were two versions of the indictment.
A majority of the grand jury that reviewed the Comey matter voted not to charge him with one of the three counts presented by prosecutors, according to a form that was signed by the grand jury's foreperson and filed in court. He was indicted on two other counts — making false statements to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding — after 14 of 23 jurors voted in favor of them, the foreperson told the judge.

[Question] Visual feedback of my Linux homelab setup/system?
cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/36794370
Hello everyone 😀My Linux learning and Homelab setup is going smoothly and after a long period of stagnation, I'm in a new learning curve 😁 ! I just learned the magic of hard links and implemented them with bind mounts (yeah hard links only work on the same file system 😛) to my Qbittorrent scripting to automagically move them as hard links to a bind mount accessible to Sonarr, Radarr, Jellyfin... and move, rename and do all other things without even touching the original files: PUR MAGIC !
Everything is a file? Naah, everything is a hard link ! (Or inode? xD)While I'm overjoyed I learned and have a better understanding of files, hard links, soft links, file system, docker, web, all kind of things related to IT... I'm getting kinda overwhelmed of what's happening on my system !!
- I have a dozen docker compose on my server, all behind traefik resolved by my piHole DNS on a raspberry pi, some have a custom image made by myself for certificate purpose or some manual changes I added.
- I have some
.configfiles in my~/to improve mymicroexperience and make it more integrated over SSH with my Mac and Desktop. If also have some config files in my/rootdirectory for my miniCA for all my service with my personal local domain name and other config files like/etc/bash_aliasesand some changes in/etc/bash.bashrc- I have some python
.venvfor learning and scripting with python- I have a complex and long bash script backup for all my docker containers to back up my volumes, config files and media files separately
- Installed some useful and needed packages like
resolvconf,wireguard,samba...- I have a few samba shares, all accessible in my LAN with sometimes some exotic configuration for Mac integration
- My docker containers have some bind mounts shared volumes
[....]
And now I also have some hard links lying around in the mix ! So I have to say it out loud: I'm OVERWHELMED !
Yes, I do keep some notes in Obsidian and also have a self-hosted Forgejo to keep my notes updated and have some kind of version control of changes in my scripts, but I do feel like I'm not sure anymore what I have... Not to say I didn't mention all the other stuff related to my phone (baikal, ntfy....) or how to keep everything updated (WUD does the trick for containers 😀) and tidy...
I guess I'm looking for something magic, something that could In ONE blink give me what's doing what and where? And changes my life for an ever-growing IT space ? Preference something visual...?
I hope to hear from you guys on what I can do to take away this feel of being lost and not being able to fully track my systems and my LAN !
Thank you !
like this
1) Simplify. You've made a system more complex than it needs to be. Copy files rather than working around hard link limitations. Use off-the-shelf backup solutions. Have a single file server with a known location for all your mounts. Etc.
2) Automate. Not with bespoke bash scripts but with tools like ansible and terraform. These tools are built to help manage infrastructure and configurations.
Everything is a file? Naah, everything is a hard link ! (Or inode? xD)
Hard links are files...
- Yeah I guess I have made it more complex. But what hard links allow me to achieve is to save disk space while still working on the file without changing the original one. Imagine I have to copy my files to sonarr, have a copy in my torrent directory and also a backup on an external disk... That's alot of space ! This may be a simpler solution, but only If you have money to spare on disk space. Yes, it's "cheap" when you have a bank account and money lying around, but that's not the case for everyone :/. I think the ARR* stack works similarly and works with hard links !
- Oh... never heard of Terraform, will have a look, thanks for the pointer !
Hard links are files…
I guess so, but files are just links pointing to inodes ? 😀 Sorry If I'm wrong here, and please give me the proper knowledge If you are willing to share 😀
Edit: After some reading, I think Ansible seems a better fitting. Terraform is more for creating infrastructures while Ansible to manage them and configure them?
I'm not sure how the *arr stuff works but hard links don't let you "edit a file while preserving the original" - they let you have mulltiple paths to the same file.
$ echo "hello" > file1
$ ln file1 file2
$ echo "world" > file2
$ cat file1 file2
world
worldDoes *arr have some sort of copy-on-write behavior? Some modern file-systems have de-duping behavior and copy-on-write built in that you may be able to save some space with.
But the point of topic 1 was to simplify. You can keep doing your hardlink stuff but standardize it and simplify setup/configuration. If you always do things in the same way it's less complicated to keep track of and fix.
You've understood the difference in terraform/ansible, and yeah terraform is probably not going to be as helpful. Ansible would be much more likely to help. It can seem burdensome to have to write configuration files for things at first, but it forces you to do things in a way that is standardized and repeatable.
China-Linked PlugX and Bookworm Malware Attacks Target Asian Telecom and ASEAN Networks
Cross-posted from: lemmy.sdf.org/post/43105573
ArchivedTelecommunications and manufacturing sectors in Central and South Asian countries have emerged as the target of an ongoing campaign distributing a new variant of a known malware called PlugX (aka Korplug or SOGU).
"The new variant's features overlap with both the RainyDay and Turian backdoors, including abuse of the same legitimate applications for DLL side-loading, the XOR-RC4-RtlDecompressBuffer algorithm used to encrypt/decrypt payloads and the RC4 keys used," Cisco Talos researchers Joey Chen and Takahiro Takeda said in an analysis published this week.
The cybersecurity company noted that the configuration associated with the PlugX variant diverges significantly from the usual PlugX configuration format, instead adopting the same structure used in RainyDay, a backdoor associated with a China-linked threat actor known as Lotus Panda (aka Naikon APT). It's also likely tracked by Kaspersky as FoundCore and attributed to a Chinese-speaking threat group it calls Cycldek.

Donald Trump's disapproval rating among Republicans is now in double digits, according to a new poll.
The survey by Quinnipiac University says 10 percent of registered Republicans disapprove of the President's handling of his role, thought the vast majority, 86 percent, approve of his presidency.
This is the first time Republican disapproval of Trump has hit double digits in Quinnipiac polling.

At least 36 dead and more than 50 injured in crush at Vijay rally in India
At least 36 people have been killed and more than 50 injured in a crush at a rally for a popular actor and politician in India.
The health minister in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, Ma Subramanian, told the Associated Press late on Saturday that the victims, including eight children, were dead by the time they arrived at hospital. The injured were in a stable condition, he added. The rally was being addressed by Tamil actor Vijay, who is campaigning for election, Tamil Nadu’s chief minister, MK Stalin, said.
Vijay, one of Tamil cinema’s most bankable actors for three decades, has drawn large crowds to his public meetings since launching his political party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, in 2024, which has targeted both the state ruling party DMK and prime minister Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata party. He is campaigning ahead of state elections that are to be held in early 2026.
Videos from local media show thousands of people surrounding a large campaign vehicle on top of which Vijay is seen standing and speaking. During the rally, visuals showed Vijay throwing water bottles from the top of the vehicle to fainting supporters and calling for police help when the crowd became uncontrollable.

Sounds like interpersonal bullshit reframed as politics. Honestly impressed at the resignation letter being able to use so many words while avoiding actually directly explaining what they're upset about. Of course it would take something really egregious and extraordinary for me to give a shit, because..
The steering committee or board of trustees or whatever should be sitting the rules for the organization, up to an including adding or removing mods from a forum if they want. That's what they exist for. The idea that a mod team should be independent of the actual organizational structure of an institution is ridiculous.
Scientists want to treat complex bone fractures with a bone-healing gun - Ars Technica
In more complex bone problems like severe, irregular fractures or resections done as part of bone cancer treatment, the bone won’t heal on its own. The most common means of stabilizing the injured site and making recovery possible is metal-based grafts, implants usually made with titanium alloys.The problem with such implants is that they are difficult and expensive to manufacture, and it’s very hard to make them patient-specific. “3D printing has been highlighted as a novel approach to make such personalized implants, but this also requires substantial time and money,” said Jung Seung Lee, a biomedical engineering researcher at the Sungkyunkwan University in Korea. So his team wanted to find a way to make bone implants that would be faster and cheaper than a 3D printer.
What they came up with was a modified glue gun. The idea was to make the implant right at the injured site during surgery. The surgeon would point the bone-healing gun at the fractured bone, pull the trigger, and create a stabilizing scaffold by extruding a filament that would solidify in the fracture and hold the bone together. “It was basically a tweaked commercially available hot glue gun. We modulated the temperature, and by adjusting the tip module, we could control the resolution of the extruded scaffold,” Lee said.
Coming up with the gun design, though, was the easy part. The hard part was figuring out the ammo.

I've been following this conflict for decades. The futility of all the outrage has always been a source of frustration for me.
I feel something changed now. Israel went too far this time. The tide has turned completely. I don't know if it's not too late for Palestine though. But things will never go back to the old status quo. And Israel has doomed itself on the long term but they're to stupid to see it. The US is on its way out on the world stage and Israel finds itself surrounded by hostile countries in the region, with no sympathy at all a cross the Mediterranean after all they've done.

Download Eden a Switch emulator as long as you can
**cross-posted from beehaw.org/post/22388618**
It's reported that the Google Play store entry of Eden emulator (a Switch emulator) is no longer available. We don't know the reason, but my educated guess is that Nintendo might have striked. I recommend to download current official clean builds and source code for backup, just in case you want to use it later.
- Homepage: eden-emu.dev/
- Downloads: github.com/eden-emulator/Relea…
- Source: git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden
I personally still use last official build of Yuzu, even today (playing Tears of the Kingdom). I never tried Eden, but it might be useful to archive it, so I do not need to download builds of others if I can't build it from source for any reason.

i don't know if the current solution of sending a photo of a physical ID together with a selfie to facebook is any better in terms of control or privacy. while at the same time i believe more places will ask to ID you when a digital ID happens in a given country
and i don't think it's an "if" either. we do have reasons to ID people irl too and the more life happens online the more those reasons also appear online. the only thing to me that is realistic is to work to have those solutions implemented the right way with as little possibilities for surveillance as possible. otherwise we just keep sending selfies and pictures of IDs around forever
I think I'm misunderstanding something about snapshots on fedora
Just installed fedora to replace windows 10. I've used mint and ubuntu as a general purpose os in the past but it's been a few years and I was never a power user, just learned what I needed as I went.
I remember it being important to use timeshift to safeguard against breaking something with updates, but it seems like timeshift doesn't work on fedora. Rather, you can get it to work on fedora but it's not supported. The thing that is confusing me is, searching for a way to do snapshots on fedora, I haven't really found what I expected? There's nothing I can see in software or flathub, timeshift or the alternatives mentioned on forums. I'm think I'm going to proceed with figuring out snapper using btrfs assistant as a gui...
But, given that I remember timeshift being basically recommended all the time to everyone when I used to use linux, I can't find anyone all that interested in using snapshots with fedora. Is it not necessary with fedora? Does fedora somehow handle that already? I can make do with the information I can find, but I'm wondering why there is so little information about it at all. I can't really find anything that suggests it's important to make snapshots. Or maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places? Can someone help me understand this better?
