The past year has seen an unprecedented displacement of Palestinian communities in the West Bank
The wave of settler attacks has continued into 2026, with the displacement of the Ras Ain al-Auja community near Jericho last week.The dramatic escalation of […] settler violence against the Palestinian countryside began after October 7, 2023, and has been particularly devastating to Bedouin communities in the Jordan Valley, the West Bank’s eastern slopes, and the South Hebron Hills. Palestinians from these areas consider their silent displacement a “second Nakba,” and an extension of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Last week, the head of the Palestinian Authority’s official Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, Moayad Shaaban, announced the commission’s findings for the year 2025 at a press conference. According to the report, between January and December 2025, [the] settlers conducted 892 attacks on Palestinians, killing 14 people in the West Bank. Settler attacks also provoked 434 fires, 127 of which affected farmland, and 307 fires against other Palestinian properties. These attacks concentrated in the areas surrounding Ramallah, Nablus, Hebron, and Tulkarem.
The report also indicated that in 2025, 35,273 trees were destroyed and poisoned, including 26,988 olive trees in the areas of Salfit, Nablus, Ramallah, Bethlehem, and Hebron. This was coupled with a wave of demolitions by the Israeli army, which leveled 1,400 Palestinian structures that year, including 304 inhabited homes, 74 uninhabited houses, 4,900 farming structures, and 270 other livelihood structures. Demolitions, according to the report, concentrated in Ramallah, Nablus, Tubas, Hebron, and Jerusalem.
A year ago, Shaaban told Mondoweiss that settlers’ violence was “an arm of Israel’s annexation policy.” Shaaban also said that his commission had pursued a strategy of establishing a humanitarian presence on the ground to confront these policies, especially through the mobilization of volunteers from local communities. Shaaban explained that the commission worked on “enhancing local steadfastness,” pointing out that volunteers supported Palestinian farmers in accessing their lands in almost 60 percent of the villages threatened by settler violence during the 2024 olive harvest season.
But conditions in the West Bank countryside have deteriorated dramatically since then. The olive harvest season marked a record low this past October, yielding a meager 7,000 tons of olive oil, compared to the 27,000 tons produced last year, according to estimates by the PA Ministry of Agriculture and other Palestinian research centers. The low production totals for 2025 are close to those in 2023, when the events of October 7 coincided with the height of the harvest season and were immediately followed by a dramatic spike in settler violence.
Today, as attention centers on Gaza, Iran, and Lebanon, Israel continues to escalate its clear strategy of de facto annexation in the West Bank, targeting a maximum of Palestinian territories while isolating Palestinian population concentrations. The ongoing displacement of Palestinian communities is coupled with the rapid expansion of settlement construction and the legalization of previously illegal settler outposts under Israeli law.
On Wednesday, the Israeli government announced the legalization of five new settler outposts in the West Bank built on Palestinian land, while last year, Israel advanced this strategy by issuing permits to build 22 new settlements, one of the largest ever settlement expansion plans in decades.
Israel just took another huge step towards West Bank annexation, explained
Israel’s decision last week to create 22 new settlements in the West Bank was reported as somewhat uneventful news in the media. The reality is, however, that it’s the latest in a series of moves to cement Israeli control of the occupied territory.Qassam Muaddi (Mondoweiss)

Bluetooth scan not finding any devices
[Solved] cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/41957406
Exact problem as this archwiki forum postI have also tried everything and at last here I am asking for any help, otherwise I don't think I would be able to continue using Linux on this laptop. I've tried everything from changing the kernel package to enabling all firmwares to using every kernel parameter I can find everything, nothing says any error or something anywhere. Only error i can find is
hci device capabilities -22
Edit:
The patch i needed was to add the driver info in btusb.c file. In nixos this is how you do it
boot = {
kernelPatches = [
{
name = "add-realtek-8852ce-btusb";
patch = ./btusb.patch;
}
];
}first what you should do is git clone the linux kernel version you are using check using
uname -rfor me it was 6.12.(whatever, doesn't matter)
git clone --depth=1 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git v6.12then find the btusb.c file in drivers/bluetooth/
and add the line
{ USB_DEVICE(0x13d3, 0x3612), .driver_info = BTUSB_REALTEK |
BTUSB_WIDEBAND_SPEECH },after these lines
static const struct usb_device_id quirks_table[] = {
BTUSB_WIDEBAND_SPEECH },
{ USB_DEVICE(0x0cb8, 0xc558), .driver_info = BTUSB_REALTEK |
BTUSB_WIDEBAND_SPEECH },now we have made chages to this file right? it will be shows in
git diff, so now you should be able to do git diff > btusb.patchthis will create a .patch file, now copy this file to wherever folder you put the nixos configuration in, most likely /etc/nixos if not using custom config.
Thats it!, now rebuild the configuration and DONE.
props to @Maiq.

I will try to get this patch upstream to not having to do this manually.

Is it safe to assume that if I wait long enough this will be fixed in the kernel? I'm a little reluctant to get in the weeds to the extent the fix requires. I'm on Bazzite, so I think that means I'll be waiting a while given it's an immutable distro, is that right?

"You are trying to drag Israel into the conflict, and this will not happen," Barrack reportedly told Abdi, warning that such a move would bring destruction and risk friction between two of Washington’s most important regional allies, Turkey and Israel, the sources added.
Senior figures within the SDF have openly acknowledged contact with Israeli officials and expressed openness to support from any external party that could help protect Kurdish communities and their political gains.
"There are certain figures from the side of the Israeli state engaged in communications with our side... and if this conversation leads to support, we would be open to support... from any source," Ilham Ahmed, a senior SDF official, told reporters on Tuesday.

They stopped Hezbollah from entering Syria, thus speeding up the crumble, but it was clear that without Russian air support the government falling was only a matter of time.
If you were to check out the changes on ground from 2012 to 2014 you'd see that Iranian intervention didn't change much, but right after 2015 (Beginning of Russian intervention) the revolution actually starts losing ground and fragmenting. Even the late Daraa insurgencies, where the government needed ground troops (The whole purpose of Iran's existence in Syria) was handled by Russian troops. LOL
So, yeah: Hezbollah by itself may have delayed the Homs takeover, but I can't think of many things that would've changed (maybe another massacre or two, but then what?)
Also, Israel just waited until the rebels took over and then magically knew where each piece of heavy military equipment was located and destroyed it all within like three weeks...

Those who've switched to Linux in the last year, how is it going?

Switched to Linux around the time Windows 11 was first announced to be a mandatory update, and all the bullshit about security.
I started out with Ubuntu, now I've been using Bazzite for over a year.
The programs I use, Gimp, Krita, Blender3D, Audacity, OBS, all have Linux native versions, and are generally part of the FOSS community anyway. Well, except for Audacity right now...
So my artistic work hasn't been hindered in the least.
Games are a slightly different story. I switched from an nVidia GTX 1060 6GB to an Intel Arc A770. Overall a significant upgrade, but there are issues. Some I had with Blender3D not recognising the card (something that was largely solved by switching distro). Other problems still persist, specifically with Intel Arc, Linux, and UE5.
UE5 is an absolute hateable bitch and some combination of Linux and Intel Arc provides no end of trouble. I still can't get certain games to run (i.e. Oblivion Remastered).

I switches to Pop!OS on my laptop that I didt use so much until now and its been solid and reliable for 99% of everything ive needed to do. Later switched my desktop to Bazzite and its been a wonderful experience. I did have a little bit of stuttering on beefier games but I mostly play middle graphics games and those were a non issue. Maybe 1-2 games I have wont run? Intel and nvidia is probably more of the reason.

Trump's ICE force is sweeping America. Billions in his tax and spending cuts bill are paying for it
A ballooning Immigration and Customs Enforcement budget. Hiring bonuses of $50,000. Swelling ranks of ICE officers, to 22,000, in an expanding national force bigger than most police departments in America.
President Donald Trump promised the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history, but achieving his goal wouldn’t have been possible without funding from the big tax and spending cuts bill passed by Republicans in Congress, and it’s fueling unprecedented immigration enforcement actions in cities like Minneapolis and beyond.
The GOP’s big bill is “supercharging ICE,” one budget expert said, in ways that Americans may not fully realize — and that have only just begun.
“I just don’t think people have a sense of the scale,” said Bobby Kogan, senior director of federal budget policy at the Center for American Progress and a former adviser to the Biden administration’s Office of Management and Budget.
IRS head announces a shake-up on the eve of the 2026 tax season
Notably, Gary Shapley, the whistleblower who testified publicly about investigations into Hunter Biden’s taxes and served just two days as IRS Commissioner last year, was named deputy chief of the Criminal Investigation division. Guy Ficco, the head of Criminal Investigation, is set to retire and will be replaced by Jarod Koopman, who will also serve as chief tax compliance officer alongside Bisignano.
The June National Taxpayer Advocate report to Congress warned that the 2026 season could be rocky after a series of mass layoffs last year brought on by the Department of Government Efficiency.
“With the IRS workforce reduced by 26% and significant tax law changes on the horizon, there are risks to next year’s filing season,” said Erin M. Collins, who leads the organization assigned to protect taxpayers’ rights.

Lindsey Halligan leaves DOJ as judge calls her use of title 'charade'
Lindsey Halligan has left the Department of Justice after a federal judge threatened disciplinary actions against the controversial U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Jan. 20.
Halligan, a former personal lawyer to President Donald Trump, was the prosecutor who brought charges against Former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James last year.
Those cases were dismissed in November 2025 after a U.S. district judge ruled Halligan was not lawfully chosen to head the office for the Eastern District of Virginia. The Department of Justice has appealed the dismissals.

The Situation: “Evident Clinical Symptoms”
In other words, to remove the president using the impeachment process, the forces of sanity would need to muster a two-thirds majority in the Senate. To remove the president under the 25th Amendment, they would need to do it in both houses.Don’t kid yourself, folks: There is no magic bullet here. There is no constitutional magic bullet. There is no investigative or prosecutorial magic bullet—no Robert Mueller or Jack Smith. There is no combination of protests and elections or lobbying that can make this problem go away quickly.
There is, instead, a long hard slog ahead of us—a long hard slog of elections, advocacy, protest, litigation, and people fighting for their rights.
And there is a long hard slog ahead of Europe too in handling the disaster the United States has unleashed on the world. Because that is what managing a deranged person is like.
... This was long before George Conway wrote his famous Atlantic article about Trump’s malignant narcissism. Trump’s mental health was not a subject it was considered appropriate to discuss—at least not in a serious way, and I’m not a clinician, and Lawfare is not a medical or psychological journal. And yet, even then—eight months before he was elected the first time—there was “the small matter of Trump’s—there’s no polite way to say this—evident clinical symptoms. I’m not a psychologist qualified to make a diagnosis, but it simply has to be significant that it’s hard to have a serious conversation about Trump without using words like egomania, grandiosity, or narcissism.”
There was no escaping it. He was deranged—grandiose, egomaniacal, narcissistic, the sort of man who would get obsessed with acquiring Greenland and blow up America’s most sacred international commitments to get it done. The sort of man who would respond to not getting the Nobel Peace Prize by declaring he was no longer solely interested in peace. The sort of man who would take the medal from its rightful winner and feel no shame at the theft.

Taking a fat dump on protest nay-sayers
I wish I could tag this as discussion.
I'm getting little annoyed at people only say "protest are useless" then proceed to suggest nothing and do nothing just to keep us in a state of complacency with the status quo.
Protest do have a function they do show those in power that people are opposed to policy or politician, but more importantly they show that other people the people that live in their city or local area are willing to show their political stance publicly. It can raise awareness and pull people in the margin to your side. from what I experience, it can show the right that they wont act on their violent words.
I get that the opposition to protest say that it never changed anything or trump continues to act crazy, and I'd say that we need to do more in addition to the protest not that we shouldn't do protest. I'll need someone that advocate not doing protest to speak in the comment.
I want to see protest "upgrade" from a gathering of people to meet-and-greets and concert. If you are at a protest you should actually enjoy it, show off your signs explain it to other protestors, and talk with other people on what to do locally. I would suggest promoting a business at a protest.
protest are good way to get around social media algorithms

Questions:
- 1. If I use "podman exec ip route" (on e.g. qbittorrent) the default route goes through my actual network interface (actual ip adress) which I very much do not want (or through my killswitch dummy network from my VPN if on, which is better but still not ideal). Is there a way to completely remove my actual network from a container's eyes? "podman exec ip addr" shows 1 lo (local), 2 my actual network, 4 tun0 from gluetun. The traffic does go through gluetun correctly, but I don't trust it 100%. Having the containers separated and NOT inside a pod gives the same result, since the containers share the network namespaces from the gluetun container when I do "Network=container:gluetun" (same as just having them in a pod as far as I understand).
I tried to also create a podman network without a default gateway, but then gluetun cannot connect to the VPN in the first place.
EDIT: A few notes: I thought gluetun was supposed to set the default route (but it seems it either doesn’t or can’t). My goal was to only have gluetun see my computer’s network and have the containers only see local network and gluetun’s tun0 network (with default routing through tun0). AFAIK pods share network namespaces, though, so that might not be possible? (even without pods?)
- My setup works but is quite convoluted and probably has many unnecessary lines, so please give me any improvements you see
- Is User=1000, Group=1000, even sensible? For example in the homepage container those lines result in the container showing User "1000:1000" (from podman inspect). Would User=0, Group=0 (or no lines since I use UserNS=keep-id in the pod?), which shows as User=root (podman inspect) mean that it has actual root access or just that it is root INSIDE the container?
Thank you in advance for the answers, in case I don't reply to your comment specifically.
I don't know much about ip routing, but userns=keep-id id determined based on what podman is run as. For example, I run podman as user 1000 on the host, so if I do keep-id the user in the container will map to the same id. This often messes with things as the container require it is root inside it's own context. It seems you are running podman as root, meaning that keep-id will map the container user to the actual root id, givintthe container essentially root access. Normally the container user is mapped to a random id on the host, like 653477, not 0. It's unsafe to map the containers id to root as they would be unbounded if they managed to escape. I would recommend doing systemctl cat on the different services to see what the .container file expands to.
When it comes to the networking I think that you need to create a podman network with internal set to true. I believe that this restricts internet access. Then you would need to only let these services communicate with gluetun.
I don't know if this was any help, but it's all I've managed to learn from doing it myself.

I Can’t Sell You Laptops Anymore (video) (enshittification of computer repair)
From : techhub.social/@sawaba@infosec… (mastodon)
The enshittification of computer repair is happening.
AI has amazingly managed to make repairable computers practically worthless.
The increase in memory and storage pricing is destroying the second-hand market for computing hardware and this makes me sad. I watched a video from someone that runs a repair shop, and this is what's happening:
The memory/storage alone is worth more than the rest of the computer, so people are stripping them out to sell separately.
The second hand market is now flooded with computers that have no memory or storage. Buying new memory or storage to put in these used computers is now more expensive than buying a new computer.
So we now suddenly have a giant e-waste problem PLUS a giant problem for repair shops that want to stay in business.
In the video, he was basically saying that they have to pivot to the only computers that folks aren't stripping RAM and storage out of - computers that have those things soldered on. The irony here is that repair shops now have to ignore the most repairable computers and focus on the least repairable computers instead.

Shadowrun 1e GM Advice
Hello!
I am a fairly new GM, and have only ran a few sessions of CY_BORG. I’ve played in many home TTRPG games (mostly DnD 5e) and have familiarized myself (through reading rather than experience sadly) with some fundamental RPG design and GM advice. My issue is, at the time I went to the game store to pick up RPG books, I wasn’t knowledgeable on Shadowrun and the editions/universe other than the fact I wanted to run it some day.
I have now realized, after buying the book and past the possibility of return, that I have bought the reprint of Shadowrun 2050 (1e) which appears to be the most complicated and problematic of the games in terms of system. That being said, I’d still like to run this some day and I’m mostly fine with a bit of complexity and crunch in an RPG. I was wondering, though, if there was a way that I could sort of build up to running something like Shadowrun?
Running not only a very rules heavy system but also a world with something complicated like The Matrix in it is pretty daunting compared to most RPG systems I’ve been interested in, so I’m a bit lost on resources to help guide me. It also doesn’t help that even among old school Shadowrun fans 1e seems to be the least played edition.
Thanks in advance!
Stop arresting Palestine Action supporters, White House tells Britain
Tim Sigsworth
19 January 2026 2:48pm GMT
The White House has told Britain to stop arresting people who express support for Palestine Action.
Sarah Rogers, Donald Trump’s free speech tsar, said the arrests were “censoring” free speech and did “more harm than good”.
More than 2,000 people have been arrested for expressing support for Palestine Action since it was proscribed as a terror group in July last year.
Ms Rogers, the US state department’s under-secretary for public diplomacy, said that the public should be allowed to say they back the group.
“I would have to look at each individual person and each proscribed organisation,” she told Semafor. “I think if you support an organisation like Hamas, then depending upon whether you’re coordinating, there are all these standards that get applied.
“This Palestine Action group, I’ve seen it written about. I don’t know what it did. I think if you just merely stand up and say, ‘I support Palestine Action’, then unless you are really co-ordinating with some violent foreign terrorist, I think that censoring that speech does more harm than good.”
Palestine Action was proscribed in July 2025 after its activists broke into RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire and vandalised military aeroplanes.
In a campaign of vandalism and trespass protesting the war in Gaza, it has targeted businesses that it claims are linked to Israel.
Anyone who expresses support for the group – which is often done on a piece of paper – faces arrest and a maximum prison sentence of six months.
Ms Rogers has been an outspoken critic of Sir Keir Starmer’s Government and freedom of speech in Britain since taking her position in October last year.
She has criticised the Prime Minister for cancelling local elections, curbing rights to jury trials and not banning cousin marriage.
Ms Rogers also compared Britain under Labour to Vladimir Putin’s Russia after the Government threatened to ban Elon Musk’s X over the creation of naked images of women and children by its AI service, Grok.
She also said British police forces were wrong to arrest people for using the phrase “globalise the intifada”.
The Metropolitan Police and Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said last month that anyone chanting the slogan would face arrest in a more robust approach to pro-Palestinian protesters following the Bondi Beach and Manchester synagogue terror attacks.
“I’m from New York City where thousands of people were murdered by jihadists,” Ms Rogers said, referring to the 9/11 terror attack. “I don’t want an intifada in New York City, and I think anyone who does is disgusting, but should it be legal to say in most contexts? Yes.”
In December, Greta Thunberg, the Swedish climate activist, was arrested in London for expressing support for Palestine Action. She was later bailed until March.
The group is in the midst of a legal challenge against its proscription and critics of the ban have argued the group is not comparable to violent terror groups such as Al-Qaeda or the Irish Republican Army (IRA).
Proscription ‘is draconian’
Amnesty International, the charity, has said the group’s proscription is an example of “problematic, overly broad and draconian restrictions on free speech”.
A number of the group’s activists embarked upon a hunger strike while being in prison on remand as they awaited trial.
Scottish prosecutors have offered to drop charges against some supporters of Palestine Action if they accept a £100 fine.
Adam McGibbon, who refused the offer, said: “The fact that the authorities are offering fines equivalent to a parking ticket for a ‘terrorism offence’ shows just how ridiculous these charges are. Do supporters of Islamic State get the same deal?
“I refuse to pay this fine, as has everyone else I know who has been offered one. Just try and put all 3,000 of us who have defied this ban so far in jail, Shabana Mahmood. Have you got the space?”
Mr McGibbon was among those arrested at a mass rally on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile in July 2025.
Lord Walney, co-chairman of the all-party parliamentary group for defending democracy, said: “It is unfortunate that Sarah Rogers says she is unaware of the history of violence and organised sabotage that led the UK Government to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation.
“The president has spoken out in strong terms against far-Left violence and intimidation in the US and it is obvious he would in no way support these extremists damaging RAF jets, smashing up defence factories and attacking security staff with sledge hammers here in the UK.”
A spokesman for the Home Office said: “Palestine Action has conducted an escalating campaign involving not just sustained criminal damage, including to Britain’s national security infrastructure, but also intimidation and alleged violence and serious injuries to individuals. That kind of activity puts the safety and security of the public at risk.”

WebRTC Leak on Android
Can Android apps use WebRTC, or is WebRTC only available in browsers?
If Android apps can use WebRTC, how can it be blocked per app or system-wide to prevent IP or network leaks?
WebRTC is a protocol, you can use it in both web apps and mobile apps.
If I remember well it was used as a trick from Facebook to leak personal data using the SDP.

Two Years in Tents… Your Support Is Our Only Hope to Survive
We are still in desperate need of your help. Everyone around us lives in safety, warmth, and happiness… but we have been deprived of that for two long years. We are trying to rebuild our lives from zero, but life in the tents makes everything harder.
Imagine living in winter inside nothing but a thin piece of nylon that cannot protect you from the freezing cold…
Imagine wishing to eat something simple, but you can’t find it… or it exists, but the price is so high you can only look at it from afar…
Imagine trying to stay strong for your children while everything around you falls apart.
Any donation — no matter how small — can help us take one step toward rebuilding our lives.
Please… do not forget us.
Your support means survival for us.
