How a Pentagon account on X became Pete Hegseth’s personal cheerleader
While it’s true no president or political leader has ever used social media quite as prolifically as Donald Trump, no recent secretary of defense has ever weaponized X or any other platform, quite like former Fox & Friends weekend host, Pete Hegseth.
Hegseth is actively reshaping the Pentagon in his own image since taking over, prompting a social media policy that has taken a dramatic turn towards supporting Hegseth’s every move and public appearance.
Part of that has been the resurrection of the Pentagon’s so-called “rapid response team”. Originally the name of a public relations brainchild of former secretary of defense Donald Rumsfeld to combat what he saw as Iraq war disinformation, the new team seems to have a similar mandate according to its X account: “Fighting Fake News!”

Prosecutors drop Maccabi assault cases after Amsterdam metro footage erased
Dutch prosecutors have allegedly dismissed multiple criminal complaints involving Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters after surveillance footage from Amsterdam’s metro system—potentially key evidence—was discovered to have been deleted due to equipment replacement and short retention policies, according to NOS.
The Public Prosecution Service (OM) confirmed it has dropped two separate investigations into violent incidents involving Maccabi supporters that took place around a match against Ajax in November last year. The incidents occurred in the metro system, where confrontations broke out between groups of supporters and counter-protesters. Footage that could have supported the allegations was reportedly not preserved, the OM said Sunday.
Transport company GVB acknowledged that the video recordings were lost because recording devices were replaced on November 12—five days after the unrest in the city. "Unfortunately, this necessary replacement, combined with a limited retention period, resulted in the footage no longer being available," a GVB spokesperson said. The company added that although the standard retention period is one week, recordings are sometimes saved for less time.

Jan-nano, a 4B model that can outperform DeepSeek 671B on certain metrics using MCP
Jan-nano is a model fine-tuned with DAPO on Qwen3-4B. Jan-nano comes with some unique capabilities:
- It can perform deep research (with the right prompting)
- It picks up relevant information effectively from search results
- It uses tools efficiently
The model was evaluated using SimpleQA - a relatively straightforward benchmark to test whether the model can find and extract the right answers.
Jan-nano outperforms Deepseek-671B on this metric, using an agentic and tool-usage-based approach. A 4B model obviously has its limitations, but it's interesting to see how far these things can be pushed. Jan-nano can serve as your self-hosted Perplexity alternative on a budget.

Migrating qbit data from Mac to Linux
Hello all,
I'm having some issues that probably stem from lack of education on computers, so if some kind soles out there can give me some assistance I'd very much appreciate it.
My immediate goal is to take all my torrent data from my MacBook qbittorrent (latest version) to my old laptop that I just loaded ElementaryOS on. This way I can have my files seeding at all times instead of when I have my mac up and running. I have all the actual media on a external SSD so I don't have to or want to redownload all the torrents on the Elementary pc.
I've done some basic reading but all the articles and youtube vids I see are just migrating from one windows to another windows machine. Duplicating the data in the app data and drag and dropping it. I've even seen the recommendation to have the same version of qbittorrent to make the swap easy. Now my under educated mind is confused on going from Mac to Linux since its a completely different OS and therefore a different "version" of qbit. I imagine its possible but I'm feeling out of my depth.
I'd really love if someone can point me in the right direction if they can.
On the Mac, open qbittorrent, select all torrents in the client, and export them as torrent files or magnets, whichever you prefer.
Copy all the torrent/magnet files to a thumb drive or something and copy them to the elementary laptop.
On the elementary laptop, start without an internet connection. Connect the external drive with all the downloaded files, mount it if elementary doesn't auto mount it, and note the path.
Open qbittorrent.
Set the default save path in qbittorrent to the path of the mounted drive with all of your downloaded files.
If you want to do it in bulk, now add all the torrent files to QBittorrent. You may have to verify the file location for the torrents to make sure it sees the files on the drive.
Once you're certain all the loaded torrents are pointing to the save path for the files, you can close qbittorrent, connect the laptop to the internet, and relaunch qbittorrent.
It should verify all the files it finds for the torrents, which can take some time if you have a lot of torrents, and once verified it'll automatically start seeding
Goid luck!!
That's the process I've used when switching machines for seeding, and it works great, just takes time for it to recheck all the files.
I followed your guide and everything works perfectly now! Thanks so much. I hope you don’t mind if I ask you a follow up question since you seem wise in the ways of wizardry.
I’m hoping to make this old laptop a jellyfin server as well. And this may seem a dumb question but I’d be remiss not to ask. I’m planning to leave this plugged in all the time. I already turned off the sleep/suspend feature. Is it safe to keep the battery in? To remove the battery I’d have to open it up and remove it and I don’t know if it’s worth the hassle.
Again thanks for your previous advice and if you have the time to answer this double thanks

'Immediate' Pirate IPTV Shutdowns? No Problem, Please Ask Us Yesterday
Sports rightsholders have revised their calls for illegal streams to be taken down inside 30 mins. It must now happen much more quickly, with the word 'immediately' given the thumbs up. How much of this additional pressure is bargaining strategy isn't clear, but in site-blocking countries like Italy, the UK, and Canada, detecting pirate infrastructure isn't a last minute effort. Many targets earmarked for blocking are identified not just hours in advance, but in some cases days earlier.

No names are mentioned in the submission but platforms including Twitch, Vercel, Scaleway, and CDN77, were previously reported as voluntarily cooperating after their IP addresses kept getting blocked as LaLiga aggressively pursued action against pirate sites. As a result of this voluntary cooperation, disruption to their businesses due to site blocking measures seemed to reduce quite quickly.Set company on fire.

Why boycotting the Harry Potter TV show accomplishes nothing and what to do instead.
I have to say, this is just such an in-the-weeds moral stance that it crosses the boundary of reasonableness. Honestly, it's this sort of thing that drove me away from left wing styles of thinking a while ago.
The impact you make on the world in any of your possible actions with regard to Harry Potter is miniscule. Like, truly, utterly insignificant. Are you going to organize an anti-potter boycott? Participate in a protest? Harass the actors in an online trolling movement? Throw eggs at JK Rawling's house? Great! Go do all those things! Actively participate in changing the world for the better! These actions might actually lead to real change.
But denying yourself pleasures in the name of moral purity accomplishes nothing. If all you do is sit at home and think to yourself "I wanna watch the new Harry Potter thing, but I can't, because then I'm a bad person." (or in this case, "I wanna talk to my friends about the new Harry Potter thing I pirated, but I can't, because then I'm a bad person) then you are accomplishing literally nothing except making yourself miserable. Again, if you are going to actually do something, then go do it! But if you don't have the time or energy or interest or social battery to actually do something, then shaming yourself or others into not doing things is actively counterproductive. Go take a road trip without calculating if the pleasure you will derive is worth the carbon footprint! Eat an ice cream cone without feeling bad about the the suffering of the factory farmed cow it came from! Get one of those good-paying jobs in oil and gas or defence and make some goddamned money! You are simply not important enough for any of these actions to have any actual real-world impact. The only thing that happens is that you convince yourself that if you ever enjoy anything, then you are a bad person. You train yourself to constantly be looking for the ways in which life's simple pleasures are destroying the world, so you can feel bad about them.
Just stop it. Be happy. Do whatever you need to do to chill out and enjoy your life and gain some sense of contentedness and security. And then go out and make the world a better place by actually doing something. Hyper-anxious, shame-ridden, depressed know-it-alls rarely create effective social change because no one wants to hang out with them. No one see them and thinks "yeah, that's what I want my life to look like."
In order to lead by example you have to show a path to a better world. Not a cell.

“The squirt guns are to bother the tourists a bit,” Andreu Martínez said with a chuckle after spritzing a couple seated at an outdoor cafe. “Barcelona has been handed to the tourists. This is a fight to give Barcelona back to its residents.”Martínez says his rent has risen over 30% as more apartments in his neighborhood are rented to tourists for short-term stays. He said there is a knock-on effect of traditional stores being replaced by businesses catering to tourists, like souvenir shops, burger joints and “bubble tea” spots.
“Our lives, as lifelong residents of Barcelona, is coming to an end,” he said. “We are being pushed out systematically.”
They have a point. People may dismiss this as “xenophobia” but I see it more as a matter of class divisions where rich tourists are prioritised over lower class residents.

Qualche ora fa, semplicemente accendendo il PC, ho involontariamente e accidentalmente (perché non lo stavo affatto cercando, e perché la situazione per cui questa cosa è possibile è parecchio problematica sotto tutti gli altri punti di vista) scoperto un modo per bloccare permanentemente gli aggiornamenti automatici di Windows… senza smanettare, senza fare cose strane, senza nemmeno essere un amministratore del sistema. Per l’appunto, non era mia intenzione bloccare gli aggiornamenti, ma a quanto pare questo è esattamente cosa succede quando il disco C: è pieno quasi fino all’orlo (nonché quando è pieno fino all’ultimo byte, ma in quello stato non funzionano bene neanche le app, quindi sarebbe ovvio). 💣
Ecco qua: avvio il PC, in cui la mia partizione C: ha appena 1 GB e mezzo di spazio libero, ed esce questo bel messaggio a schermo (ambiguo come al solito sul momento, ma cliccando Maggiori informazioni si capisce subito tutto)… perché ops, alla Microsoft non bastano 1 miliardo e passa di byte (!) per installare un semplice aggiornamento cumulativo. Da qui ne deduco che, se lo spazio disponibile rimanesse così poco all’infinito, Windows non riuscirebbe mai a scaricare nessun aggiornamento; di conseguenza, gli aggiornamenti sarebbero bloccati per sempre. 🥴Ci sarebbe da dire che, in realtà, spesso noto la quantità di spazio disponibile sul disco cambiare da sola, riducendosi o espandendosi con margini che vanno dal centinaio di MB al paio di GB, senza che io faccia nulla di particolare (cosa normale, sarà questione che ogni tanto l’SSD viene trimmato, o che le mie applicazioni e il sistema operativo smuovono le proprie cache), quindi non saprei quanto davvero questo sia affidabile come metodo per bloccare gli aggiornamenti, qualora ce ne fosse bisogno (che, ripeto, non è il mio caso)… Eppure, a pensarci bene, da qualche settimana ho il disco così strapieno, e da qualche settimana non noto arrivare aggiornamenti… per cui… 😹

Just wanted to show off the lowest end hardware I ever ran Linux on
Single core, 32 bit CPU, can't even do video playback on VLC. But it kinda works for some offline work, like text editing, and even emulation through zsnes! It's crazy how Linux keeps old hardware like this running.
Thankfully though, this laptop CPU is upgradable, and so is the ram, so I'm planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century 😄
