Iranian Navy helicopter intercepts US destroyer in Sea of Oman
According to a statement from Iran's military, the US warship approached waters monitored by Iran, prompting a rapid-reaction helicopter from the Third Naval Region of the Iranian Army's Navy (NEDAJA) to deploy.
The helicopter hovered over the destroyer and delivered a clear radio warning to steer clear of Iranian-monitored waters.
In the ensuing standoff, the crew of the USS Fitzgerald threatened to engage the helicopter if it remained in proximity.
Iran’s Army Air Defense Command then intervened, declaring the helicopter under full air defense protection and ordering the American destroyer to change its course.
According to the statement, the USS Fitzgerald complied, heading south away from the disputed area.

Border Patrol Wants Advanced AI to Spy on American Cities
cross-posted from: sh.itjust.works/post/42675636
Protection, flush with billions in new funding, is seeking “advanced AI” technologies to surveil urban residential areas, increasingly sophisticated autonomous systems, and even the ability to see through walls.A CBP presentation for an “Industry Day” summit with private sector vendors, obtained by The Intercept, lays out a detailed wish list of tech CBP hopes to purchase, like satellite connectivity for surveillance towers along the border and improved radio communications. But it also shows that state-of-the-art, AI-augmented surveillance technologies will be central to the Trump administration’s anti-immigrant campaign, which will extend deep into the interior of the North American continent, hundreds of miles from international borders as commonly understood.

Judge rules Epstein grand jury records will remain sealed
Judge rules Epstein grand jury records will remain sealed
ABC News
3–4 minutes
The records were related to grand juries convened in West Palm Beach.
A federal judge in Florida denied a Justice Department request to unseal grand jury records tied to federal investigations into Epstein, according to a public order released Wednesday.
The request is one of three made by the Justice Department to judges in New York and Florida seeking to unseal records from federal investigations into Epstein.

According to the order by District Judge Robin Rosenberg, the records the department sought to unseal related to grand juries convened in West Palm Beach in 2005 and 2007 that had investigated Epstein.
Judge Rosenberg faulted the Justice Department for failing to outline sufficient arguments to justify the unsealing of the records, which are normally protected under strict secrecy rules.
Rosenberg's opinion states her "hands are tied" given existing precedent in the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals which only permits the disclosure of such grand jury materials under narrow exceptions.
She further denied a request to transfer the issue into the jurisdiction of the Southern District of New York, where two judges are separately mulling over similar motions from the department seeking to unseal grand jury records tied to Epstein and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
A Justice Department spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the order.

Meanwhile, a federal judge in New York denied Ghislaine Maxwell's request to review grand jury testimony related to Epstein.
"It is black-letter law that defendants generally are not entitled to access to grand jury materials," U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer wrote.

Maxwell's lawyers requested access to the sensitive grand jury records to determine if Maxwell would take a position on the records' release.
Judge Engelmayer wrote that there is no "compelling necessity" for Maxwell to review the records. An objection from Maxwell into unsealing the records could further complicate the process of potentially releasing the records.
"She has not shown, or attempted to show, that the grand jury materials in her case are apt to reveal any deficiency in the proceedings leading to her indictment," he wrote.
Judge Engelmayer noted that he plans to "expeditiously" review the transcripts himself and would consider providing an excerpt or synopsis to Maxwell's lawyers.

the order of redirections is significant
In bash, if you put:
ls /Users/*/.ssh/id_rsa 2>&1 > rsa-keys.log
...you're redirecting stderr to the stdout's destination while stdout is still sending output to the screen. So any permission errors encountered will go to the screen, not to rsa-keys.log.
From the bash manpage:
==================
Note that the order of redirections is significant. For example, the command
ls > dirlist 2>&1directs both standard output and standard error to the file dirlist, while the command
ls 2>&1 > dirlistdirects only the standard output to file dirlist, because the standard error was duplicated from the standard output before the standard output was redirected to dirlist.
==================
Commands given to the shell are evaluated and processed in a specific order and fashion, and this is one quirk of that that many people are unaware of.

il cartafacenzio di octo e la foglianza interattiva!!! (Papiellify, nuova app per creare fogli decorati)
Nel tentare (in parte invano, ma in parte no, dai) di alleviare le mie sofferenze giornaliere, dovute alle solite impossibilità di incartamento, eccomi qui di nuovo ad uscirmene fuori dal letterale nulla con un nuovissimo dei miei toolini pazzurdi… Ma a ‘sto giro ho davvero poca voglia di scherzare, quindi, per una buona volta, metto la fine della storia all’inizio: l’aggeggio di questa volta è caricato su https://hub.octt.eu.org/Papiellify/ (ed era da tanto che non mettevo una roba nuova lì sopra…), ed in poche parole è nientedimeno che un (o meglio, il; credo sia l’unico al mondo) fogliatore… 🍀In pratica, ero qui di nuovo a voler stampare fogli con grafichine personalizzate, come mostrai qualche altra volta, ma il solo pensiero di dovermi ancora mettere a fare tutta quella roba strana in programmi tipo Office (di qualsiasi vendor; io uso Libre, ma non cambia) — assolutamente non fatti per questo tipo di cose, nonostante stranamente usati da tutti per questo tipo di cose — piazzando nei bordi le immagini, poi le righe, e infine non ne parliamo di layout un pochino più complessi… mi fa venire subito la nausea e dunque addio alle intenzioni spassose. Ovviamente, come all’assoluto solito, sono una ragazza magica, e quindi, piuttosto che avvilirmi, è spuntato fuori il momento di mettermi all’opera, con la programmazione… e questa qui è la primissima versione abbastanza utilizzabile da essere pubblicata, gnam! 🥰
Ho avuto rubamenti di tempo vari adesso eh, quindi ci ho messo qualche giorno in più che normalmente non avrei impiegato per arrivare al punto di qualcosa che già mi sta essendo di enorme utilità, ma la app per ora è ancora abbastanza semplice, pure se non sembra… Ci sono tanti controlli a schermo, si, e si possono già creare infiniti layout sfiziosi semplicemente maneggiando con questi form, certo, però questo ancora non è niente rispetto a quello che potrebbe essere… neanche il tempo di saltellare per i progressi già fatti finora, infatti, e già sento la mancanza di una gestione multi-pagina, o di più preset di stile impostabili, ma vedrò di adoperarmi man mano che le necessità spunteranno fuori (a me, o ad altri… vi scongiuro, apprezzate il mio lavoro cartiaco…) 😳
Io invito come sempre a provare per credere (e sennò che cazzo li metto online a fare i miei
tool…), ma in buona sostanza questo è come funziona la app: sfruttando non casualmente, ma proprio esattamente (cioè, usare altro di base mi avrebbe richiesto infinitamente più lavoro), le funzioni di layout intrinseche della piattaforma web (il CSS, bono!), permette di gestire dei livelli (che nella pagina sono non altro che elementi HTML con applicati particolari stili), che sono definiti da immagini caricabili o pattern preprogrammati (come codici SVG), e sono personalizzabili in una marea di criteri tra cui dimensioni, spaziature, slittamenti, e per i pattern cose come spessore del tratto, colori e vattelappesca — tutto impostabile precisamente, e altamente risminchiabile, senza scrivere codice! 😜
Qui, per esempio, ho creato due diversi papielli (ovviamente stampabili, e che goduria) per provare un po’ il tutto: il primo, a righe azzurre spaziate a 8mm e con una decorazione di Sailor Moon in basso a destra (dimensionata in modo ideale per l’A5, ma ovviamente modificabile); ed il secondo, con una griglia a puntini di 10mm decorata ogni 4 con dei cuoricini… ed entrambi usano solo due livelli, quindi si può fare solo di meglio. Questi esempi, ed eventualmente altri che creerò, li ho salvati in JSON con l’apposita funzione del menu in-app, e chiunque voglia usarli può semplicemente caricarli nell’applicazione, sono scaricabili qui: memos.octt.eu.org/m/gnwNvbS4zv…. 💖Un bonus per me, per concludere, è che ho notato che sui browser web mobile questa app funziona a metà… e detto così sembra qualcosa di negativo, ma io ero partita dal presupposto che la UI di questa app dovesse essere così intricata da essere virtualmente inutilizzabile su smartphone; quindi, scoprire che in realtà si riesce realisticamente ad usare (forse anche grazie al fatto che il pannello delle opzioni si può restringere, e viceversa quello dell’anteprima) mi fa piacere. Il problema tuttavia è che, sia da Firefox che da Chromium, su Android (almeno, sul mio Xiaomi del cazzo…), l’esportazione su PDF o in stampa è rotta, e la pagina esce vuota… quindi poi dovrò usare qualche libreria JavaScript strana per esportare dal lato del mio codice, anziché delegare al browser, che abbiamo capito fa cagare. Una cosa comunque è certa: con tutte queste caselle di input, slider per i numeri, ed alcune opzioni forse relativamente criptiche, non è un software adatto agli utonti deboli di cuore… ma, il suo lo fa al top (credo). 😺
