With just over 24 hours before the government is set to shutdown, Donald Trump and congressional leaders from both parties emerged from a high-stakes White House meeting on Monday with no agreement, setting the stage for large swaths of the federal government to close after midnight Wednesday.
The impasse came after closed-door talks between the four top congressional leaders and Trump in the Oval Office, where lawmakers appeared to trade blame but make little progress towards a deal. “There are still large differences between us,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told reporters after the meeting, claiming that Republicans refused to engage on their core demands around health care and restoring previous funding cuts.
“Their bill has not one iota of Democratic input,” he added, taking aim at a House-passed seven-week stopgap funding bill that Senate Democrats rejected last week. “That is never how we’ve done this before.”

A new poll released by Quinnipiac University on 24 September has revealed that support for Israel continues to drop significantly across the US.
Only 47 percent of US citizens believe that backing Israel is in Washington’s interest, the poll shows. Forty-one percent believe it is not, and 12 percent did not respond. This marks a drop from December 2023, when Quinnipiac polling showed that respondents supported Israel by a 69–23 margin.
The poll also found that 49 percent of US voters have a negative view of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Only 21 percent hold positive views on the premier.
It also found that 56 percent of US voters disapprove of US President Donald Trump’s handling of the Gaza war.
Miller’s role, The Guardian notes, helps account for the shaky legal justification the administration has provided for the attacks: The Trump administration claims the president was using his authority under Article II of the Constitution, based on the notion that the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua is a foreign terrorist organization. This recalls Miller’s repeated assertions that TdA is “running Venezuela” in his argument for deporting Venezuelan immigrants under the Alien Enemies Act.
The revelation about Miller’s role also recalls reports that he mused about bombing unarmed immigrants in boats as an adviser in the first Trump administration.
Miles Taylor, a former Department of Homeland Security official who resigned in Trump’s first term and became a vocal critic of the president, recounted an exchange between Miller and the then-commandant of the Coast Guard—which Miller vehemently denies—in his book Blowback.
September 29, 2025 – Huawei Executive Director and Head of the Terminal Business Group, Richard Yu (Yu Chengdong), officially announced today that the number of devices running HarmonyOS 5 has exceeded 20 million units.
20M units in China is too small to count as a rounding error.
When one Chinese phone company hired an American CEO he talked in interviews about how experimentally selling 50M units of a test prototype suggested it might have potential.
Right, but there's nothing fundamentally wrong with AOSP. The key is not being reliant on any Google service. Base Android works fine as an operating system.
China deployed alternatives to everything. Alternatives to Nvidia AI chips, Volkswagen cars, TSMC chip foundries, ASML lithography machines, ChatGPT AI software, F22 fighter jets.
And China has superior class solar panels, wind turbines, electric grids and batteries.
The EU has lithography machines that's dependent on the US and electric cars that are inferior to Tesla and those are their crown jewels.
Most countries underestimated the importance of digital sovereignty. The only two countries that have viable alternative to US tech infrastructure are China and Russia.
I'm no tanks but like..... china seems stable. They're innovating, getting shit done. And the is... well. Hardly surprising that the tides would turn this way.
US President Donald Trump said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed to end the war in Gaza, in a move he said would be the Israeli leader's "crowning achievement".
hirohit was a puppet, but could just as easily replace him with the admiralty and it makes me wonder if this is more whitewashing to paint the genociders as "protectors"
"Gaza will be governed under the temporary transitional governance of a technocratic, apolitical Palestinian committee, responsible for delivering the day-to-day running of public services and municipalities for the people in Gaza," the White House said.
A "Board of Peace" chaired by Trump, which will include former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, will have "oversight and supervision" of the Palestinian committee.
The plan says the Palestinian Authority will eventually take over Gaza once it has "completed its reform programme".
Netanyahu praised Trump for offering to manage the enclave as "Chairman of the Board", saying: "The fact that you are taking this on helps a lot."
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Back up a bit. Is this "peace" "plan" literally making President Trump the unelected ruler of the Gaza Strip? Not in his role as President of the United States, even, which would be bad enough, but making Trump, personally, the highest authority in Gaza, until he decides Gaza is "reformed" enough for him to surrender power?
Am I reading this right?
Are we going all the way back to the time of Julius Caesar where the leader of Rome could just give himself a province to rule personally?
My what the fuckometer has been consistently overloaded since January 20th, but, really, what the actual fuck?
From what I heard this is what HAMAS or whoever is doing negotiations for Palestinians wants. They know trump is bad, but Netanyahu is worse. They would rather Trumps name be personally tied to their future. Scary that they think that's their best strategy.
"Gaza will be governed under the temporary transitional governance of a technocratic, apolitical Palestinian committee, responsible for delivering the day-to-day running of public services and municipalities for the people in Gaza," the White House said. A "Board of Peace" chaired by Trump, which will include former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, will have "oversight and supervision" of the Palestinian committee. The plan says the Palestinian Authority will eventually take over Gaza once it has "completed its reform programme".
[...] shortly after the press conference, Reuters quoted a Hamas official as saying that the group had not received a "written Gaza peace plan" as yet.
Hamas probably won't go for this as it still requires them to demilitarize and they, along with a lot of Palestinians in gaza, view that as a path to slow ethnic cleansing like what's happening in the west bank.
You'd think the "Hillary's gonna take our guns" Republicans would understand not wanting to surrender your guns and security to a government in general, much less one that's been trying to genocide you for decades.
I think there's a reason they might actually go for it.
If you give Gaza to Trump, Trump may feel the need to "stick up for it". I don't know how likely that is, but clearly Palestine has exhausted all other options.
Given that Trump has publicly supported leveling Gaza and turning it into a luxury resort, I think it's very questionable what he would be sticking up "for"
The war isn't over and if anything this is just laying the groundwork to expand it
It's so funny that these two are "negotiating peace". Like, did they forget the plot line or something? They aren't at war. Netanyahu bombed the negotiators with the people that one of them is at war with?! Like, they're two granpas playing dolls on a public stage and everyone is watching.
"disarming of Hamas" Non starter, never give-up arms. It just gives the oppressor complete control and will only mean that Israel will fully take all the land and murder the people much much easier. Settlers will be able to swarm in and murder even more Palestinians. If your murder is going to happen anyway, then take as many of them as you possibly can.

The Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) will launch a dedicated boat carrying international journalists and medical professionals to Gaza on October 1, 2025
For nearly two years, Israel has denied foreign journalists entry into Gaza, creating one of the most severe press blackouts in recent history… At the same time, Gaza’s health system has been systematically dismantled under Israel’s siege and bombardment.
In response, the FFC is assembling a boat of journalists and healthcare professionals to:
Provide the international press an opportunity to report directly from Gaza
Deliver urgently needed medical expertise and solidarity alongside Gaza’s decimated health workforce.
I'm just sharing here this app I use always on my phone, and I don't see many people talking about it.
It's similar to DuckDuckGo app feature that block trackers across all the device, but this one is focused only on that, it also allows you to add your custom tracker URLs to block and monitor every request being made.
It enables a VPN to intercept requests, so it can block URLs of trackers across all your apps. The app provides a list of URLs as you open it for the first time, you can choose a few options between less or more aggressive.
Obs.: The app don't tell, but when you add a custom URL you need to disable and enable it again.
The way AdGuard does it, is it has you install a certificate on your phone, which then allows you to block ads and trackers within HTTPS pipelines. If you don't do that, then it can only block HTTP requests, which tends to be pretty low quality filtering. In addition, I also enable DNS blocking through AdGuard DNS service, so it's kind of like blanket coverage.
I haven't honestly found anything that does the same thing, or at least not at the same level of quality. So I'm always curious to see if something new has come out that can reach this level of filtering performance.
3B+ Android users deserve access to a safer and open Internet. RethinkDNS is a private,
secure, and fast DNS resolver with custom rules, blocklists, and analytics that lets you
block websites temporarily with time-based rules, or perm…
Rethink also has Tor built in as a proxy. If you use signal you can change to the open-source Molly and then route Molly through Tor. Then good fucking luck collecting info. Then also good luck having anyone to talk to. But otherwise yes Rethink is better.
I've run the duckduckgo version of this for years but only recently found out you can get most of this functionality natively in android (android 13 for me) by setting a private DNS as shown in the below image. My duckduckgo app tracking protection does still catch attempts but it's basically just google now, instead of dozens of companies before.
I found this was returning localised results from the other side of the planet, so I kept connecting to slow servers when more local ones were available. I ended up rolling my own from home. The only problem is there's no way to do access control so I just have to hope not too many find it.
Like you ended up doing a PiHole at home? I'm surprised there's no access control. I was on the verge of setting that or Adguard home up for myself but realized using Adguard's public servers is effectively the same thing, just without the extra privacy of hosting at home.
I've been using TrackerControl, using basically the same idea and concept, and been very happy with it. Having app-level control over what gets blocked is very convenient.
The only downside to this approach is that you can't use a real VPN anymore, as android only allows one at a time.
This is my favorite app that I never got to use but inspired me to learn how to do DNS configurations to work with traditional VPN's like Mullvad and iVPN. They have built in DNS filters that are putrid compared to DNSNet. But a DNS can't run on its own so it casts itself like a VPN so the system runs through it and the DNS then filters the system of trackers. If you don't think you need this and it's just Greek then download App Warden and run a scan. That ain't normal Comrade. Stop normalizing the end. Anyways I strayed. When the DNS casts itself as a VPN it prevents real VPN's from connecting, leaving your IP vulnerable. No tor, no VPN. So I discovered NextDNS and after a month I learned how to use private DNS in the connection settings of Android to point it to NextDNS and then how to configure the custom DNS option in my VPN (Mulvad) to also point to NextDNS. Then I setup tor in the background. I hope this helps someone skip a month of work and can focus that time on being happy. Sorry I can't direct you to each step I talked about. It was a LOT of work.
It's certainly an option. My personal approach is with RethinkDNS, with the Wireguard functionality switched on (using my Mullvad VPN within Wireguard) and using local / On Device blocklists from the Rethink selection box. Not too challenging to set up and pretty much set and forget. I like the PiHole options, but never have got around to it.

I've seen stremio pop up a few times in my feed recently and decided to give a look. It's seems like I could use it with torrentio, but my concern is that the apps comes with a few trackers, amongst which 3 facebook trackers (share, login & analytics).
I don't know much about trackers, how they work, and what I should worry about, so I mostly try to avoid them, but could someone here tell me if I should worry about these facebook trackers (I don't use fb, but since it's pretty much the Devil itself...), and maybe suggest resources on how to get informed on trackers, what they do, and when to worry about it?
Me? I wouldn't use it, mainly because their featured channels are FB, Insta, Twitter, & Reddit. How did FB, Insta, Twitter, & Reddit get a front seat? What exchange is being made for the quid pro quo to be completed? Additionally, their 'Privacy Policy' and what data they collect leaves a lot to be desired from a privacy standpoint. It is opensource, which is a plus, but in my mind, that doesn't stop them from mining your data.
These are my opinions. There are many like them, but these are mine.
I do not know of the inner machinations of Stremio, nor do I possess the where with all to alter it's code. If that is knowledge you could share with the OP, that makes Stremio compatible with privacy, security, and anonymity, then please do share.
Now that I know more about blobs, I hear they are encrypted. I wonder what that looks like when you open code in an IDE. So like, maybe you can read it until a certain line, and then it turns into some type of encoded gibberish. I wonder if you could delete the gibberish and it still work.
The customization of your UI is very unintuitive. Worse than Kodi actually. You have to set up things in a particular order as you cannot reorder it after. Also some features require self hosting a server whereas Kodi doesn't.
If you use any adblocker, inbuild or as extension, eg.uBO, AdGuard or Adblock Plus extension and apart eg. Portmaster, or InviZible Pro on Mobile, it's irrelevant if the page use tracking cookies, because they get blocked.
I use it, but only because I couldn't find anything else that works with streaming torrents. If there is something that is fully open source and less "shady", I'd love to hear about it
I’ve been rocking Proxmox for a little over a year on an old Mac Mini with a failing NIC (I probably damaged it when I installed the SSD). So I decided it was time to get some new used cheap hardware and I have just received a HP Elitedesk 800 G3 SFF, going to throw 32GB of RAM, a 1TB M2 NVMe boot drive and a 4TB SATA drive for media in it (this will replace my external 4TB drive).
Right now in Proxmox I’m running a Docker VM with Debian (Transmission-VPN container, ByteStash, FreshRSS, KaraKeep), another Debian VM for Visual Studio Code so I can remote into VS Code on my Mac and iPad and couple of LXC containers (Plex, Open WebUI and Pi Hole).
Honestly Proxmox feels like overkill for what I’m doing, half of what I’m doing is either individual LXC containers or I find myself SSH’ing into the Docker VM. The Proxmox helper scripts are great, but I feel like I’m not learning much and I don’t know how much I can trust random GitHub URLs.
I’d like to start learning and becoming more self-sufficient with Linux. I was pretty excited by the idea of learning NixOS, get comfortable learning the code and then creating distinct configurations for different systems, including my Mac devices with Darwin… then I was reminded of all the recent bullshit happening in the community… I don’t want to get deep into the discussion in this thread, but I don’t really want to use/support a distro that Palmer Luckey and Anduril are trying to influence and control.
So I’m trying to decide if I should stick with Proxmox, try something like Arch or keep an eye on what’s going down with Nix and have a good backup strategy if the situation worsens.
I’d probably switch from Docker to Podman, use Wayland with Niri and learn NeoVIM and use SSH instead of VS Code remote tunnels.
Based on my current setup and my goals, what would you suggest I do?
I daily drive Arch on my personal laptop, which is great. I also tried running an Arch server at some point... which I'm not sure about. The updates really start piling up on a server because I'm not running pacman -Syu all the time... which feels bad, but maybe it's fine? idk. Not sure what other people think.
NixOS
There is something called Guix, which is a hard fork of NixOS from a long time ago. It's not a 1:1 replacement. But it does have some of the big features like reproducible builds. The Guix folks tend to be really loud about running 100% libre open source code, but don't worry you can't run non-foss code very easily to get your laptop working. It may not work for your usecase, but just something to know about.
Guix is a distribution of the GNU operating system.
Guix is technology that respects the freedom of computer users.
You are free to run the system for any purpose, study how it
works, improve it, and share it with the whole world.
I mean, yeah, all of the userland stuff is configured in Lisp. User level guix command is also written in Lisp.
and replacing systemd with GNU Shepherd which also uses Lisp
And the lower system is also configured in Lisp and the init program is written in Lisp! 🙌 Guix users would consider that a feature, not a bug. It's all Lisp! 🥳
Although, honestly I do wish they just used systemd and had Lisp bindings. Systemd does a lot of useful stuff besides just being an init system. GNU Herd only does basic init system stuff.
Not to mention that some apps actually depend on systemd to build and/or run, which makes packaging those apps tricky...
I've had an itch to learn a functional language for a while now and Lisp being a general-purpose programming language used for pretty much everything, instead of Nixlang, which is a DSL, that's used sometimes (a lot of the times? you still need bash.), felt like a good fit for me.
Also worth noting, you can use guix just as a package manager on any Linux distro. You don't have to run GuixOS. Same as Nix/NixOS. I was running GuixOS for a few months, but I fell off the wagon and I'm back on Arch, btw for now.
NixOS is definitely gonna have a bigger software selection, but keep in mind you can install Flatpaks and use distrobox on GuixOS, so you should still be able to install most of your apps. Actually, I believe you can install Nix packages somehow, but I didn't have a need to try that.
I'd say Arch Linux if you are sure about doing something else than Proxmox. The wiki and help posted on the internet might benefit Arch switch currently. You can get the experience you are looking for and it doesn't box you out of using Nix. Arch will get you going sooner IMO.
NixOS seems fun though and I've only recently starting messing with it. You will do best engaging with what you prefer best. The NixOS switch could pay better dividends in the future though.
If I recall this hasn't been the first time NixOS has had to consider Palmer/Anduril. You could keep an eye out for the auxolotl project that is doing an alternative/fork of Nix.
You're more of an expert in home-server stuff than me, but here's what I do and my reasons why, maybe they can help you find an answer yourself.
I've chosen Arch for my homeserver (contrary to most people prefering Debian) since: 1. I've been using it for years and know a lot about it, so maintenance isn't an issue at all. 2. Newest software = latest bug and security fixes, features etc. 3. the Wiki makes installing anything a breeze and many questions and issues are already answered in the arch forums
I don't use a docker image and I don't see its necessacity (again, you know better then me). I've seen however servers that use NixOS because they can have the whole infrastructure/system in a git repo, which makes moving to a new server easy and without issues, which is not your case since you'll be running it on the same machine.
I've never used proxmox but if it's specifically built for what you're looking (ie. home server) then go for it even if it's overkill. For me personally, Arch works great as a server.
fwiw, I've got fedora and ubuntu on the server, I don't interact much with the underlying os, everything is in a container. The user (me) facing differences are that I've got podman on fedora, docker on ubuntu. Selinux on fedora vs apparmor. Cockpit on fedora vs no cockpit preinstalled on ubuntu.
I could also use arch as a base, to me, the user, it wouldn't make much difference other than that I would have to manually install and setup all the tools that are already setup on fedora. It's all linux.
Here’s my journey from arch to proxmox back to arch: bower.sh/homelab
I was in your shoes and decided to simplify my system. It’s really hard to beat arch and I missed having full control over the system. Proxmox is awesome but it felt overkill for my use cases. If I want to experiment with new distros I would probably just run distrobox or qemu directly. Proxmox does a lot but it ended up just being a gui on top of qemu with some built in backup systems. But if you end up using zfs anyway … what’s the benefit?
Neovim is the same as Vim but with Lua capabilities and a few other niche items. You might can use just Vim. I've been testing it for a year, but I don't see much advantage to it. Ssh is cool and is widely used, so you should learn it. If you ever work in a lab that uses linux or a data center, it will be useful, and it's not hard. Download putty (ssh client) on any Windows computer and try to get into your linux machine with it. Or just use it in a command line with the destination IP and go from there.
Before you use Arch, just know that it is a bit tougher than the other OS's. I use it with Hyperland and had to delete, update, and then rebuild half my system just to update the OS because the libraries were out of sync. Arch can be a pain to maintain, and even small things like the package manager mirrors break frequently. So you just need to install or update something, and you end up fighting with pernicious mirror updates to your pacman files instead. It can be annoying. My take on Arch after almost a year is that you have to either be super good at Linux, or be nerdy enough to waste time on Linux nonsense and menial maintenance tasks. If you ever plan to get laid and not stare at a screen, get something more easily manageable. That's just my opinion, and sometimes I suck, so...
bummer that you've had issues with arch. but i don't really understand the issues you've had. like setting up reflector should solve the mirrors, and checking the newsfeed before updating will solve a lot of other issues. In the last year I think there was only one, maybe two times that there was manual intervention required from me--and they were both trivial; and the convenience of never having to worry about doing a distro upgrade is so nice... Other than that, hyprland is changing frequently so sometimes you need to update your config--but again, just read the release notes or use a wm that updates less (like sway, dwm). But the changes have never taken more than 20 seconds to fix, and they've never been breaking for me. Maybe some of your issues were due to the DDOS attacks that have been going on? Also how much do you use the AUR?
My take on Arch after almost a year is that you have to either be super good at Linux, or be nerdy enough to waste time on Linux nonsense and menial maintenance tasks.
while i think this is overstated, i do agree that you need to be a certain kind of person to enjoy arch.
I am not saying I don't enjoy it. I love it, actually. It only does what I tell it to, so many off the issues are my fault. I use the AUR too much, I'll bet. Is that not recommended? I have only upgraded Arch once in a year is my issue. I had to basically delete Hyprland and then update Arch because a Iibrary that needed to be updated had dependencies. One problem could be I am 45 and stress has hurt my cognitive function a bit.
I will probably move to using openSuse for my last Windows replacement just to have something a bit more manageable. I will keep the Arch. Although I complain, I feel comfortable with the peace of mind knowing that I built it and it does not have garbage bloat on it.
Edit: Also, my reflector issues are because the update function sometimes does not work. Actually, most of the time, I use pacman, the mirrors are outdated, and I must run reflector, and it rarely works the first time I run it.
sorry if my reply seemed too negative towards you. I was mostly curious about the issues you had and sorting them out... It's good you enjoy it! like I said, I think for specific people... these types of issues are much more interesting than dealing with issues that come with other platforms.
I wonder if your system update/hyprland issue was when they moved away from wlroots?
AUR isn't really recommended. Because it's managed by users, you're essentially running install scripts that may or may not be maintained by randos (of course, i'm simplifying--but i think this is a fair way to look at it). Personally, if possible I'll always choose flatpak > AUR--and AUR only when necessary. That being said, I do install from the AUR, and I love that it exists and is available... I just avoid it when possible.
Updating once a year is rough. But even then with your issues, imo i'd weigh those to how difficult a windows update for 10 -> 11 or going from Debian 12 -> 13... If I was only using my computer once a month or so, I'd likely run Debian. But I do have a second laptop that I rarely use, but it runs arch with DWM and almost nothing else GUI besides a web browser and "it just works"... even after a month or so there isn't much to updated, cause it only has like 500 or packages installed lol
if you haven't already, i recommend maybe trying to set up a systemd timer for refreshing reflector? I run it manually whenever I find that downloading updates is slow or fails... in the past I had a bash script in my $PATH called update.sh that would run reflector, run yay, and then update flatpak (I put it in my $PATH, because at the time I was testing the water with different shells, and didn't want to have to update .bashrc, .zshrc and fish config etc).
No worries. It was useful to hear the AUR feedback and the idea to try systemd timer using the update script added to $PATH. I could try an update.sh with reflector first, then pacman, and maybe add a few items I installed with AUR or various items in my /home/.local/share as well. For sure thanks for the feedback!
and had to delete, update, and then rebuild half my system just to update the OS because the libraries were out of sync.
This does not just happen with proper use of pacman. The most common situation where this does happen is called a "partial upgrade", which is avoidable by simply not running pacman -Sy. (The one exception is for archlinux-keyring, though that requires you run pacman -Syu afterwards).
Arch is definitely intended for a certain audience. If you don't intend on configuring your system on the level Arch allows you to, then a different distro might be a better option. That does not mean it's a requirement, you can install KDE, update once a month, and almost never have to worry about system maintenance (besides stuff that is posted on Archlinux news, once or twice a year, usually a single command).
If you want to learn, go for it! Although if you're running anything important, be sure you've got backups, and can restore your system if needed. I wouldn't personally worry about the future of NixOS. If the project "goes the wrong way", it's FOSS, someone will fork it.
I've considered Proxmox, but immediately dismissed it (after light testing) due to the lack of control over the host OS. It's just Debian with a bunch of convenience scripts and config for an easy libvirt experience. That's amazing for a "click install and have it work" solution, but can be annoying when doing something not supported by the project, as you have to work around Proxmox tooling.
After that, I checked my options again, keeping in mind the only thing the host OS needs is KVM/libvirt, and a relatively modern kernel. Since it's not intended to run any actual software besides libvirt, stability over quick releases is way more important. I ended up going with Alpine Linux for this, as it's extremely light-weight (no systemd, intended for IoT), and has both stable and rolling release channels.
It is significantly more setup to use libvirt directly. After installation, Proxmox immediately allows you to get going. Setting up libvirt yourself requires effort. I personally use "Virtual Machine Manager" as a GUI to manage my VMs, though frequently use the included "virsh" too.
I'm on Proxmox because I don't have time to learn my way around my entire homelab, so I need tutorials and Proxmox has the biggest community. I use Coolify for easy deployments and testing software.
Same thing with Docker, I don't like it, but I can't afford using an alternative yet.
But I wish I could get away with using Ublue core + cockpit + podman quadlets + QEMU/KVM. But man, the Fedora & Cockpit docs are so newbie unfriendly, and the Cockpit community is pretty much non-existant compared to Proxmox. There's no one doing tutorials for it on youtube, while you can find a new PVE tutorial every single day.
My advice is go towards where your own priorities are. If you don't want to support a certain mindset, just don't. If you want to do it the manual way and learn everything you can, then go with Arch, they've got the greatest Linux wiki that has ever been written. If you want easy to follow tutorials stay with PVE. If you want an unbreakable system go with Ublue core or Ubuntu core (I'm personally not liking Canonical though).
Follow your thirst for knowledge, In a few years you'll be a pro.
As someone currently deep into Nix (even contributed to nixpkgs), I'm currently in the process of migrating away and am planning on just running good old Debian stable with docker compose for my home server. I wouldn't waste your time learning Nix, it isn't a transferable skill and totally locks you into the ecosystem.
Anything else you want to run, you can run in Proxmox. If it's too much hardware for what you're doing, all the more reason to run Proxmox. You can build an Arch VM, and NixOS VM, and whatever else you want in it!
If you go with just one of them right on the hardware, that's all you can do with it, you're done, you're stuck.
When you have Proxmox on it, you can try every OS! And then some! It is a superpower for learning.
Currently messing around with Talos Linux in a VM.
Yes!! Now LOVE Talos, after, drumroll, trying it out in my lab on my Proxmox boxes!! Figured it out 'good enough', and then rolled a live cluster with it - also on the same Proxmox hardware!! Labs, production services, loaner 'lab boxes' for people doing certs - with hardware to spare! LOVE Proxmox so much!!!
I use NixOS, but it is not for learning how Linux works; realistically it's for when you already know how Linux typically works, so you can understand when it breaks some of those norms.
If you want to learn how containers etc work, use straight-up Debian.
I really don't recommend arch for a server. On a desktop absolutely but what I want for a server is to be able to let it sit for 6 months, then update it and not have everything break; arch works best with frequent update hygiene.
I find myself downloading a lot of movies that are dubbed in latino Spanish. I've checked fmhy torrents, but unfortunately, there just isn't a lot of latino Spanish content available on torrents.
(Yes, there is a lot of Spanish Spanish content... but... meehhh...)
However, I have had better luck with fmhy streaming. It's not the best quality, 720p or 1080p if I'm lucky. But it's better than nothing.
I was recently wondering, how does dubbing actually work? Is there a video difference between English and Spanish movies? Or is there just literally an audio track being swapped out?
Could I take an audio track from a 720p stream and add it to a 4K torrented movie file and expect the audio and video to line up?
It'll be hit or miss. If it's ripped from the same source then it should be fine, but different editions, TV edits, scenes that are cut in some versions or additional title cards at the beginning will mess it up so you'd need to QC it.
Slightly off topic, but might be useful to you: If you look for BluRay remuxes you can also often find things with multiple audio tracks. Then you can just strip everything unwanted out of the container, which would leave you with the original video and a Spanish dub. Also, since you are looking for specifically Latino Spanish, I would hope this is also released on BluRay releases, or do we have systemic racism to thank for that not being one of the many common audio dubs...
Any difference in edition will be obvious in the runtime. If the movie is 1:29:43 in the theatrical edition and there's a special edition that adds some time, say, a total of 1:47:13 runtime, you'll want to ensure that the Latino audio you're ripping is of the same edition. But the English and dub tracks will always be the same length for the same edition. Generally the Wiki articles of movies/shows have the runtimes. Or the fandom wikis.
Afterwards you can just merge the audio and video tracks into one container file (MKV, MP4, etc.).
That was like a decade ago when I searched for dubbed anime, sadly. Now I usually just search subbed anime. The best way is to familiarise with groups and to rip (torrent) only their releases either via Toshi or nyasi. Iirc the one I follow, EraiScans, rips crunchy roll anime which has both Spanish and Latino Spanish subs, if that works for you.
Your best bet for quality dubbed content is to find the raw blu-ray torrent (check for the included audio tracks), and retranscode to x264, x265 or AV1 with Handbrake and the audio tracks you want to keep. No need to tinker with a/v sync from there.
Yes, there is a lot of Spanish Spanish content… but… meehhh…
Amen. I'm a spanish as a second language speaker and I can barely understand those old world bastards. To me they always sound like they talk with marbles in their mouths.
For content from streaming platforms like Netflix, the audio and video lines up most of the time. The dub might be a bit longer at the end, but that doesn't matter; it's only the credits.
For Blu-ray and DVDs, it's a bigger problem. The audio and video lines don't usually line up: different production company logos of different lengths and maybe minor regional differences. You could probably adjust the audio delay in the video player to get a decent experience.
mpv is good video player where it is easily possible to play the video from one file and the audio from another.
You already had some good advices but something I haven't seen mentioned. If you use Kodi (and probably a couple others media player), you could use some sub plugin like open subtitle (forgot other names) to fetch subtitles on the fly when you will play video. It can be hit or miss at first, but subtitles name are like release name (title, quality, release group). So if you often encounter a release group that do your sub language. Try to download video from same release group, so you will have better chance that audio/sub sync properly.
This apart, +1 for private tracker as already mentioned, you may need some searching to find one but worth it.

Hungary blocked 12 Ukrainian media outlets in response to Kyiv's earlier ban on several foreign publications over Russian narratives, Hungarian Cabinet Minister Gergely Gulyas said on Sept. 29.
Several Hungarian media outlets were among those temporarily restricted in Ukraine by an order by the State Special Communications Service on Sept. 8
According to Gulyas, Ukraine blocked the Hungarian outlets Origo and Demokrata because they "dared to write critically about the policy of sanctions against Russia, Ukraine's armed support, and portray the EU and NATO as fragmented and ineffective organizations."
Gulyas described the ban on Hungarian outlets in Ukraine as "a completely unjustified attack."
The list of 12 banned Ukrainian media outlets in Hungary includes several popular sources such as Ukrainska Pravda, European Pravda, NV, hromadske and TSN.
"With Ukraine's accession, the EU would only become more fragmented," Gulyas wrote on Facebok.
The news marks the most recent point of tension amid strained relations between Kyiv and Budapest.
Hungary is broadly seen as the most Kremlin-friendly government in the EU and NATO. The country has consistently obstructed aid to Ukraine and sanctions against Russia throughout the full-scale war.
Ukraine applied for EU membership shortly after Russia launched its war in 2022 and was granted candidate status within months.
As an EU member, Hungary has veto power over further progress.
Last week, reconnaissance drones likely belonging to Hungary had violated Ukraine's airspace along the border, President Volodymyr Zelensky said. Budapest rejected the allegations.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukrainian forces recorded drone incursions over border areas and that preliminary assessments suggest the unmanned aircraft were "conducting reconnaissance on the industrial potential of Ukraine's border areas."

PeakMetrics grabbed a sample of 52,000 posts made on X within the first 24 hours of Cracker Barrel’s announcement that it would be modernizing its logo to an admittedly very plain and generic design. In that timeframe, it found that 44.5% of all mentions of Cracker Barrel were flagged as likely or higher bot activity. Those numbers climb even higher when a boycott is mentioned. About 1,000 posts in that first 24-hour period called on people to stop eating at Cracker Barrel, and 49% of those posts got flagged as likely coming from bots. In its report, PeakMetrics states that the boycott was unlikely to be an organic grassroots response but a “bot-assisted amplification seeded by meme/activist accounts.”
The thing is people were persuaded to GAF. We hear “driven by bots” and we think “oh so it was fake.” But bots are merely the PR mechanism of choice in 2025. In prior decades it might have been AM radio and a bunch of press releases faxed around or influence networks pumping the talk shows for airtime or church networks getting people riled up from the pulpit. But the game has always been the same. It’s only the tools that have changed.
Yes, but that’s like saying cutting trees is the same game when it went from handsaws to today’s harvesters. Technically they do the same thing, but the scale and efficiency is a world apart.
Oh I completely agree. My point is that just because it was driven by bots doesn’t mean it was fake and therefore we can ignore it (I believe some people have that perception when they hear that some online uproar was driven by bots).
Yes. It's incredibly stupid. But I don't see why anyone cares.
That said, I could absolutely believe that the rebranding was to deliberately destroy the brand, as part of some rich people destroy Toys R Us / Gamestop type of crap.
My parents are the clowns that eat up bot manipulation posts. I have never seen them go anywhere to eat. But somehow they were CB masters. Their friend group is just as stupid to. They buy into rage bait like children and most of us kids are just done with them. It’s pathetic.
Workers preparing to leave the government have described how months of “fear and intimidation” left them feeling like they had no choice but to depart.
“Federal workers stay for the mission. When that mission is taken away, when they’re scapegoated, when their job security is uncertain, and when their tiny semblance of work-life balance is stripped away, they leave,” a longtime employee at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (Fema) told the Guardian. “That’s why I left.”

I don't understand how someone concludes that working for them translates to being a fascist. I understand not wanting to support it but calling them a fascist seems dumb.
New #nixos board observer candidate (github.com/NixOS/foundation/pu…), working for a US autonomous weapon company and paid by Thiel dollars, casually complaining that a proposal empowers minorities too much.
Moving forward, I would also like to participate in these discussions.
NixOS has been (and still is) a big part of my life, and would like to see both the technology and community succeed.
About me...
Thank you very much for bringing this up. This kind of direct confirmation from Anduril loses them plausible and implausible deniability. They do want to exert control over community, and everyone suggesting otherwise is factually wrong.
We have a lack of words used in the English language that specifies graduations and grades of arseholes.
Just like some languages have one word for snow, and others have dozens
Edit: I noticed several people disagreed. But did not explain: is it because they think there are enough words, or they like the word fascist and think it’s appropriate in current usages?
Or option C: there's a discussion going on about an open source project, and you're starting a discussion about the semantics of the word fascist/asshole, without taking a clear stance on what you mean. I didn't downvote you, but I also have no idea what you were going for with that statement. It seems unrelated.
I didn't downvote you, but it's unclear what you meant by stating that.
Depending on how one interprets it, it can be seen as a justification for using "fascist" (since there isn't a more accurate word) or simply a way to emphasize that the term is inaccurate and shouldn't be used.
So I'm not surprised if you get up/down votes from both sides in either direction, specially in a polarizing discussion. Not because of what you said being wrong/right, but because of what they might read between lines.
For the past half hour I tried to read into what's happened, and who the supposed fascists are, and these are the facts I managed to uncover. I hope it will serve anyone who reads this well:
Communities are gonna drama.
Moderating is hard and (paraphrasing Douglas Adams) anyone who wants to do it, shouldn't be allowed to.
I really don't care enough to waste more time on this.
What that user pointed out is, that it has "ties to a fascist company". But in my opinion;
A government can have ties to a communist leader or organization, and still not be a communist government.
A project can have ties to an anarchist and that still won't make the project be anarchist.
But if a project has ties to a fascist company the project itself turns fascist?
Pd. I asked for more info because if ties to a company make you fascist, at least the user who commented that should have very good arguments to dictate if NixOS is fascist based on what they know.
That's like saying, "A community in lemmy has lots of users that come from X anarchist instance, so that Community must now be anarchist!"
Fascist don't invade spaces, more so, the thing I'm seeing commonly are angry people calling normal people "fascists", so then can kick them out of projects or groups because "screw them, they're fascists! so we fuck them over until they are no longer involved or present!, because we are good and they are bad"
Again, fuck TRUE fascists, but I'm still waiting for arguments on what makes NixOS a Fascist Project
From what I can tell the steering committee (project leadership) wanted to modify the mod team, the mod team wants to be independent of the leadership of the project, and one member of the certain committee works or did work for a genuinely shitty company in some capacity.
Sorry dont really have time to get into it, tldr its a us defense company (which makes it already fascist) but also pro-trump (so its openly fascist) read more in this thread as well: lemmy.ml/post/36786640
Also quite the gall to assert that "not everything that you dislike = fascism" when you don't even know the main reason why people are calling it fascist
Anduril’s autonomous surveillance towers have been used on the U.S.–Mexico border to detect and track migrants, as part of DHS programs. This has drawn criticism from immigrant rights groups and academics who argue such systems dehumanize migrants and enable policies that align with authoritarian nationalism.
Anduril is privately funded (by VC firms like Founders Fund) but markets and sells directly to governments and military agencies, without the typical government R&D cycle. It builds weapons and surveillance systems first, then offers them to the state. This “build first, ask later” model can lead to unchecked corporate influence over the military-industrial complex, which some critics argue is a step toward a techno-authoritarian fascist regime.
Anduril founder Palmer Luckey was ousted from Oculus after it was revealed he funded a pro-Trump meme organization (Nimble America) known for spreading far-right content during the 2016 election. While this doesn’t make the company fascist, it raises concerns for critics about the political leanings of its leadership and how those ideologies could influence product deployment.
Anduril is deeply involved in developing autonomous weapon systems, like the ALTIUS-600M loitering munition. Critics warn that the use of AI to identify and kill targets without human input could lead to violations of international law and facilitate mass violence or authoritarian control. Anduril’s heavy investment in such systems leads some to see it as advancing a dystopian militarized fascist future.
Linux Distribution "NixOS" drama: Moderation Team resigns in protest over Interference of Leadership; Elected Leader works for US Military Company, fearing alignment with US fascistic development
Short Summary of the Community Drama of the Linux Distribution "NixOS", so that you can get the big picture and form your own opinion with the provided sources.
Clarification of the "Steering Comittee" as Project Leadership
We resign, effective immediately, in protest of the Steering Committee’s ongoing pattern of attempting to interfere with moderation team operation, membership and specific moderation decisions.
No it's not. It is currently facing fascism. But the story is being written as we speak. Is it going to succumb to it? Or fight and prevail? We don't know... Stay tuned for the next episode, we're going to find out in about 2 months.
Edit: Leadership is now going to make the decision whether they like the arms industry or not. And that's going to be reflected in the vote in a few weeks.
Eh, I do not think it is fascist yet. It sure has a lot of issues though.
This may be the Weimar Republic stage of the project, and it's not too late to save it.
I say if you are an eligible voter, you should vote. Given the voter base is small, your vote really counts. Read the candidates' profiles carefully. Make sure that no people associated with or supportive of the US MIC are on your ballot.
So far I count djacu and tomberek as the list of people to not vote for. But make sure to check for yourself, there will be more candidates.
On the contrary, put the people who are explicitly against MIC meddling first in your ballot. Currently they are cafkafk and leona-ya. Put everyone else on your ballot too, to reduce the chance of an MIC-related person getting on. But again, make sure to check candidate's answers before voting.
It is the least you can do and if enough people do it, we might come out with a more antifascist SC. I doubt it will help with any technical issues we're facing, like the lack of Nix maintenance power, but it could save the project from becoming right-wing.
XLibre claiming to be apolitical is hilarious when their readme sounds like it's written by a MAGAt. Never touching that project that's for sure.
Also pretty sure that stuff about the founder is bs, unless you can back that up with a source. From my understanding he ended up stepping down because he was already putting more attention into determinate nix, which was causing friction.
Practically speaking all open source software is communist, insofar as the capital, which in the case of software would be the source code and the means to build and deploy it, is available to anyone with the wherewithal to use it.
I mean I would not contribute due to the mit license if anything. Many people feel the concerns are overblown but given things can be forked its not like you would loose the contributed code. Still if Im going to give my time I will go copyleft.

did you just drop the full index into the config, like the 'how to use' image shows in the repo's 'readme'? take that out, it's all 10,000+ 'channels'. go into the repo's 'streams' directory and find one or a few for your country and add those instead (load the 'raw' url for each in the browser, then copy the resulting address from your browser address bar into the config).
But I went through the same thing with iptv-org. It seems many of the listed channels are largely dead. I manually scrubbed the english list by checking the channels but it was pretty brutal. I think like 200-400 channels were working out of 2000+.
There are also online m3u checkers if you search like "m3u checker". I've used some web-based apps. They're somewhat slow but ok. There's also an m3u checker that you can install locally. I haven't tried it yet but I'm wondering if it might be faster.
I try not to bother with obviously pirated channels because they usually go down pretty quick. I'm much more interested in legit channels that will stay up.
Lastly I also have all the Pluto channels with EPG. I used this app for the channels and EPG.
I also wrote some scripts to download/merge channels and EPGs. TBH it's kind of a PITA but it's like a hobby.
(edit: One last thing... I noticed that some channels worked with VLC but not Kodi. I had to adjust some settings in Kodi to make them work. In particular I had to change my user agent to OKHTTP for Pluto channels.)

autunniaco autismo portato all’eccesso congelante (l’autunno ha portato freddo dal niente)
Con tutte le rogne che mi porto appreso, mi era proprio sfuggito di mente un fatto eppure non insignificante, cioè che è arrivato l’autismo. (Anche detto autunno.) Le ore di Sole sono già molte di meno, si, ma questo si è avviato da qualche mese… l’autismo, che è arrivato di botto e si è fatto sentire bello prepotente, ha portato altro: un freddo di cui è impossibile capacitarsi (e non solo per me, ma per tutti coloro da cui ho sentito un parere a riguardo), e per giunta venuto dalla sera alla mattina dopo; senza esagerazioni! (Anche se non dal 20 al 21, o dal 21 al 22… è più dal 24 al 25, ma credo questo sia per colpa del normale offset delle stagioni.) E pensare che l’autunno, almeno a livello iperuranico, dovrebbe trasmettere solo sensazioni di calore e goduria... bah! 🥶
La cosa è anche un po’ un colmo perché, come solito in questa era post-moderna rovinata dagli orrori della rivoluzione industriale e delle varie rivoluzioni economiche, ho osservato il classico controsenso.Martedì, quando ho iniziato i corsi, complice il fatto che ci fosse allerta meteo e stesse infatti anche piovendo (perché ovviamente non può non piovere il primo giorno del semestre mio e di tanta altra gente, ci mancherebbe, poi si rischia di cadere nella trappola dell’ottimismo!), pensavo sarebbe stato freddino… ma invece si stava bene, a posto. E anche il giorno dopo, un po’ faceva brutto tempo, con qualche gocciolina, ma non si stava male. E quindi chiaramente, giovedì, che il tempo è tornato sereno, ha dovuto iniziare a fare un freddo dei pazzi che, alle 9 di mattina, mi ha presa completamente alla sprovvista. Un po’ sarà stata colpa dell’aula, che fa schifo, è fin troppo esposta all’aria, e le finestre si trovano sempre aperte, quindi si può immaginare che ricircolo polare artico-mortale ci fosse, con tutto che i condizionatori stanno ancora su freddo… e vabbé, oggi e venerdì dunque ho dovuto cacciare fuori la felpa, pazienza. 😐 C’è chi dice che l’autismo è come il sale: usarne un po’ migliora i sapori, ma quando è troppo esce tutto una schifezza… ecco, mi sa che è corretto. Quindi, se la promessa dell'”autunno stile ragazza autistica -core” sembra di per sé una benedizione — e oso dire che lo sarebbe, se non ci fosse questo problema qui — con questo troppo ha sinceramente stroppiato; cioè, ragà, il freddo già lo fa, ma le foglie nemmeno hanno avuto il tempo di marronizzarsi e cadere dagli alberi, e comunque non fa ancora abbastanza freddo per inglobarsi in copertine e avere scuse per non faticare…che schifo e che noia. Tuttavia, io ancora non ho acquisito il potere di controllare le stagioni, men che meno il meteo, e dei babbani figurarsi, quindi… pure di questa cosa, bisogna farsene una ragione; siamo nati per soffrire, e sono nata per ricondividere al mondo questa sofferenza. 🍂

Elisa Rovesta, Fashion outsider — Illustrazioni di Roberta Cassisa. Pagine 108, 15 euro — OLIGO, dal 10 ottobre in libreria
[strong]La Moda come Rivoluzione: “Fashion Outsider”[/strong] “Fashion Outsider” non è un semplice libro, ma un viaggio affascinante nelle vite di chi ha fatto della moda una vera e propria rivoluzione. Il volume esplora come icone culturali del calibro di Frida Kahlo, Salvador Dalì, Coco Chanel e Madonna abbiano trasformato il loro stile personale in una dichiarazione di intenti, riscrivendo le regole del fashion system e lasciando un segno indelebile.
L’autrice, forte della sua esperienza nel mondo del branding e delle tendenze, ci guida attraverso storie di ribellione, innovazione e audacia estetica. Scopriamo come queste figure, con i loro abiti, accessori e persino il loro portamento, abbiano sfidato le convenzioni sociali e artistiche, diventando fonte di ispirazione globale. La moda non è più vista come una semplice scelta di stile, ma come un potente strumento di emancipazione personale e culturale.
Hai detto profumo? Come lo vuoi? Molecolare, senza alcool, con olii naturali e ciliegie ghiacciate dell ’Himalaya… dove si trovano queste ciliegie poi? Profumi di nicchia, commerciali, con mille materie prime. Ma un profumo non è solo ciò che percepiamo con l ’olfatto. A volte è ciò che si sente nel cuore, che ci racconta storie, ci evoca epoche, amicizie, luoghi lontani. Ad esempio, un profumo può raccontarci una delle storie più affascinanti del XX secolo: l’amicizia tra Misia Sert e Coco Chanel. Due donne di mondi diversi, unite nella Parigi dorata dell’inizio del secolo, dove arte emoda intrecciavano le vite di personaggi straordinari. La loro amicizia divenne il fondamento di un’intesa unica, e di un supporto reciproco forse raro, ma prezioso.
Elisa Rovesta è esperta di mode e costumi della società.

When one Chinese phone company hired an American CEO he talked in interviews about how experimentally selling 50M units of a test prototype suggested it might have potential.

Compare that with both Android and the iPhone which had global availability and took until 2010 to reach the same milestone.

Alternatives to Nvidia AI chips, Volkswagen cars, TSMC chip foundries,
ASML lithography machines, ChatGPT AI software, F22 fighter jets.
And China has superior class solar panels, wind turbines, electric grids and batteries.
The EU has lithography machines that's dependent on the US
and electric cars that are inferior to Tesla and those are their crown jewels.
