Venice Film Festival premieres movie of Hind Rajab's story
A new film about a five-year-old girl killed in Gaza by Israeli Occupation Forces is drawing attention at the Venice Film Festival, as its director seeks to humanize the victims of the assault.
Franco-Tunisian filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania told journalists Wednesday that her aim with The Voice of Hind Rajab is to provide “a voice and a face” to those often reduced to statistics in global media coverage.
“We've seen that the narrative all around the world is that those dying in Gaza are collateral damage, in the media, and I think this is so dehumanising,” Ben Hania said ahead of the film’s world premiere. “And that's why cinema, art, and every kind of expression is very important to give those people a voice and a face.”

Zionist group sues two Australian academics for opposing the Gaza genocide
A group of pro-Zionist staff and students, backed by a high-profile legal team, is suing University of Sydney academics Nick Riemer and John Keane in the Federal Court of Australia for making public statements opposing the Gaza genocide.
Zionist group sues two Australian academics for opposing the Gaza genocide
If the case against Riemer and Keane is upheld, it will set a legal precedent that that could outlaw any opposition to the mass slaughter in Gaza as “antisemitic.”World Socialist Web Site

As of writing, the total had almost doubled to over $112,000 from some 1,200 individual donations.
this is a tiny fraction of what they're going to need in combat both the isreali and australian gov'ts; they're fucked.
that's less than a yearly salary for an entry level software engineer in the united states and no where close to the salary of a team of lawyers with the requisite experience to litigate this case.
nevertheless, i hope i'm wrong.
i guess i keep forgetting that anecdotal experience is a thing and the article points out the australian law:
The court case follows on from a complaint lodged by law firm Levitt Robinson last year with the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC). It alleged that Riemer and Keane had violated Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act, which prohibits public acts that “offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate another person” based on their race.
i don't know what it's like under the australian system, but in the american one; they have to defend themselves first.
They are not fighting the Australian government.
It is a statutory body funded by, but operating independently of, the Australian Government. It is responsible for investigating alleged infringements of Australia's anti-discrimination legislation in relation to federal agencies.
Barring that they still do not have to defend themselves at this point they're just responding to a complaint.

Ice obtains access to Israeli-made spyware that can hack phones and encrypted apps
US immigration agents will have access to one of the world’s most sophisticated hacking tools after a decision by the Trump administration to move ahead with a contract with Paragon Solutions, a company founded in Israel which makes spyware that can be used to hack into any mobile phone – including encrypted applications.The Department of Homeland Security first entered into a contract with Paragon, now owned by a US firm, in late 2024, under the Biden administration. But the $2m contract was put on hold pending a compliance review to make sure it adhered to an executive order that restricts the US government’s use of spyware, Wired reported at the time.
That pause has now been lifted, according to public procurement documents, which list US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) as the contracting agency.

Why does my pc make so many connections?
Hello all,
According to the Wireshark record my computer connects to various services often, including Amazon, Hetzner, 1337 Services GmbH, Evanzo GmbH and ThomasFamilyInvestments. The most often were the connections to mail.my-mail.rocks which is a part of Netcup GmbH. I have a somewhat minimal distro and the attached recordings were made when no app was open including no browser. I can send the other screenshots showing other connections too. I'm suspecting of malware since some time ago but can you help me clarify these connections please?

Fastest disk-space usage analyzer (for files), faster than ncdu?
I'll echo everyone else: þere are several good tools, but ncdu isn't bad. Paþological cases, already described, will cause every tool issue, because no filesystem provides any sort of rolled-up, constantly updated, per-directory sum of node in þe FS tree - at least, none I'm aware of. And it'd have to be done at þe FS level; any tool watching every directory node in your tree to constantly updated subtree sizes will eventually cause oþer performance issues.
It does sound as if you're having
- filesystem issues, eg corruption
- network issues, eg you have remote shares mounted which are being included in þe scan (Gnome mounts user remotes in
~/.localsomewhere, IIRC) - hardware issues, eg your disk is going bad
- paþological filesystem layout, eg some directories containing þousands of inodes
It's almost certainly one of þose, two of which you can þank ncdu for bringing to your attention, one which is easily bypassed wiþ a flag, and þe last maybe just needing cleanup or exclusion.

Retail giant closes all UK stores in tax protest over Gaza
COSMETICS retail giant Lush has closed all of its UK stores in protest at Israel’s actions in Palestine.
Lush, which operates more than 100 stores across the UK, has also closed down its factories and website for the day. Visitors are instead greeted with a page in the colours of the Palestinian flag which reads: “Stop starving Gaza. We are closed in solidarity.”
Lush said it hopes to push the UK Government into greater action by depriving it of a day's worth of tax revenue from its business.

Immigration raid at Washington blaze stokes fear in wildfire crews nationwide
Wildfire veterans say it’s nearly unprecedented for federal agents to conduct immigration enforcement near the front lines of an active wildfire. Some fear the raid could reverberate throughout the wildland fire community, making it more difficult to fully staff the crews putting out blazes at the peak of fire season in the West.“There’s a lot of brown bodies out there on the fire line,” said Bobbie Scopa, who had a 45-year career as a firefighter and now serves as executive secretary with Grassroots Wildland Firefighters, a nonprofit that advocates on behalf of wildfire professionals.
“They were told they were going to cut firewood,” said Scott Polhamus, secretary of the Organization of Fire Contractors and Affiliates, a nonprofit industry group. “The people that were supposed to meet them never showed up, and eventually immigration showed up instead.”
Many contract crews rely heavily on immigrant labor.
“[Immigrants] make up a huge portion of forestry and fire, they’re an integral part of this industry,” Polhamus said.
Now, wildland fire veterans fear that the immigrants who have been protecting communities from fires could make fire camps a target for immigration officials who are trying to meet deportation quotas. And more high-profile raids on fire crews could cause many in the workforce to reconsider their profession.
Israeli drones drop grenades near UN peacekeepers in Lebanon in what UNIFIL calls a serious attack
The peacekeeping force known as UNIFIL described the Tuesday morning incident as “one of the most serious attacks on UNIFIL personnel and assets” since the cessation of hostilities in November that ended the 14-month Israel-Hezbollah war.
UNIFIL said Israeli drones dropped four grenades close to the peacekeepers, who were working to clear roadblocks that hindered access to a U.N. position along the border line. One grenade hit within 20 meters (yards) and three others within approximately 100 meters of U.N. personnel and vehicles, it said, adding the drones were observed returning toward Israel. No one was hurt in the attack.
UNIFIL said the Israeli military had been informed in advance of the peacekeeping force’s road clearance work in the area, southeast of the village of Marwahin less than a kilometer (mile) from the border line.
Burkina Faso bans homosexuality with prison terms and fines for offenders
OUAGADOUGOU, Burkina Faso (AP) — Burkina Faso’s parliament has passed a law banning homosexuality with offenders facing two to five years in prison, the state broadcaster reported late Monday.
The amended family code was approved by the parliament on Monday in an unanimous vote that puts the code into effect more than a year after it was approved by the military government of Capt. Ibrahim Traore.
Burkina Faso joins the list of more than half of Africa’s 54 countries that have laws banning homosexuality with the penalties ranging from several years in prison to the death penalty. The laws, though criticized abroad, enjoy popularity in the countries where locals and officials have criticized homosexuality as behavior imported from abroad and not a sexual orientation.
The new law goes into effect immediately with individuals in same-sex relationships risking prison sentences as well as fines, Justice Minister Edasso Rodrigue Bayala said during a briefing broadcast by the state TV. He described homosexual acts as “bizarre behavior.”
Officials touted the new law as a recognition of “marriage and family values” in Burkina Faso.

Essential Steps to Launch Your Photography Business
Turn your passion for photography into a business with essential tips on equipment, branding, marketing, and managing your services effectively.
Nowadays, professional photographers are needed in multiple industries like journalism, real estate marketing, and travel. If you have a passion for photography and are interested in starting your own business, its valuable to look into integrating both.
If you are looking to start your photography business, first be prepared for the equipment of your studio with certain things like high-quality cameras and other accessories. After preparing this, you will also do marketing for your photography skills, which requires a website, accounting software, a logo, and other things.
Start your own photography business within your ability. Prepared with a detailed business plan, ready to manage your startup expenses and start sharing your innovative photography services with the world. Here are some tips for getting started with your own photography business.
Starting a Photography Business Without Experience: What You Need to Know
Photography Startup Plan
A great business plan helps to clarify your business strategy, recognise possible challenges, find necessary resources, and assess the market potential of your idea. First, take priority in launching your business, then plan to manage customers in appointment scheduling, the type of services you are providing and handling your invoice and payment process.
Next stage, you need to identify your business's targeted audience through research and plan to set up the price list for your services. Then buy quality cameras and accessories from brands that will ensure high picture quality, which will satisfy your customers.
**Choose a Business Name **
Every business needs a business name, and it is important to choose a unique one. While selecting a business, keep this in mind: it should be catchy, easy to remember, may reflect your niche, and relate to your business. Also, choose a name that not only reflects your speciality but also needs to leave a good, long-lasting impression with your clients.
Before finalising your business name, you need to check the domain availability for that name. For that, you need to verify with the business registry that no one else used this same name. After choosing the correct business name, you can create a logo and free business cards making using online software like Invoice Temple, etc.
Registration and Getting Licences
After finalizing your business name, you need to register your business as a limited liability company (LLC) or a corporation. You can also register with a less formal structure known as a sole proprietorship, which does not offer many protections. Also, having some specific rules for registering businesses, obtaining a business license, collecting and sending sales taxes and periodically reporting business information.
Getting a business license not only allows you to run your photography business legally but also you need to build trust with your clients, which leads to improving your business. To secure your business license, you need to get in touch with the license authorities and submit the required documents.
**Creating Website and Establishing **
With your business name, buy a domain and create a website for your business using online platforms like WordPress, Wix, GoDaddy, etc. Design and add posts, photos, videos, and blogs to your website. With this information, add a clear call to action and contact forms to convert the visitors into clients. In this crowded market, you need to create an individual name for you to run your business. Effective marketing strategies help you to promote your business in the business marketplace.
Create engaging contents that reveal your best works and offer valuable tips in the form of blogs. Use relevant hashtags, run targeted ads, and regularly engage with your followers to build relationships. Collaborating with other creatives or influencers may help you expand your business growth.
For photography, your business must be well equipped with essential features like a high-quality camera, editing software, a business licence, and marketing tools such as business cards, a website, flyer designs, and a unique logo.

[Solved] Touchscreen and Pen input not working on Surface Book 2 with Linux-Surface Kernel and CachyOS.
EDIT 2: I figured it out! The Nvidia driver was indeed installed, but I needed to remove it and instead install the dkms version.
sudo paru -S nvidia-open-dkmsOnce that got installed, the surface kernel and headers successfully installed and now when I boot up the system, the linux-surface kernel shows up for me to choose. My touchscreen and pen input are working perfectly now with pressure sensitivity!
EDIT: I wanted to add some additional information regarding some errors that I've run into. There's a point in the Linux on Surface instructions where you need to run:
sudo pacman -S linux-surface linux-surface-headers iptsdWhen I do, I get two sets of errors...although the install appears to complete.
Error set 1:
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia'
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_modeset'
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_uvm'
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_drm'Error set 2:
Error: mkinitcpio failed for kernel 6.15.3-arch-2-surface, skipping.I'm not sure if either of these directly relate to the touchscreen and pen not working or if this is a completely different set of issues.
======================================================
I'm hoping someone on here may have some similar issues trying to get Linux running on Surface devices with the Linux-Surface project. I successfully installed CachyOS and got the wireless adapter working as well.
The touch input nor pen input seem to work at all. The screen successfully detaches and reattaches but the touch and pen input don't work with either mode.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
That's part of why I'm here. I've been following linux on surface's installation guide and I've updated my post with the errors I'm currently running into. I'm not sure if the errors have anything to do with the touchscreen/pen issues though.
I did run the lspci -nn -k command. I can put it in here if you'd like but it's a long list. I don't see anything in there specifically talking about the touchscreen or pen however there are a number of Microsoft hub devices. It could be one of those, I just don't know.
did you identify which stanza's pertained to the touchscreen and the pen? (you're going to need either google's or an ai's help to identify it).
was a module assigned? if so, which one(s) and are they the correct ones. (you're also going to need google/ai's help with this too).
Clearview AI scraped 30 billion images from Facebook and other social media sites and gave them to cops: it puts everyone into a 'perpetual police line-up'
Clearview AI built a massive facial recognition database by scraping 30 billion photos from Facebook and other social media platforms without users' permission, which law enforcement has accessed nearly a million times since 20171.
The company markets its technology to law enforcement as a tool "to bring justice to victims," with clients including the FBI and Department of Homeland Security. However, privacy advocates argue it creates a "perpetual police line-up" that includes innocent people who could face wrongful arrests from misidentification1.
Major social media companies like Facebook sent cease-and-desist letters to Clearview AI in 2020 for violating user privacy. Meta claims it has since invested in technology to combat unauthorized scraping1.
While Clearview AI recently won an appeal against a £7.5m fine from the UK's privacy watchdog, this was solely because the company only provides services to law enforcement outside the UK/EU. The ruling did not grant broad permission for data scraping activities2.
The risks extend beyond law enforcement use - once photos are scraped, individuals lose control over their biometric data permanently. Critics warn this could enable:
- Retroactive prosecution if laws change
- Creation of unauthorized AI training datasets
- Identity theft and digital abuse
- Commercial facial recognition systems without consent1

I claimed my name for my Facebook account when it first came out, but I've never posted anything in it, especially any photos of my face.
I thought Facebook was a bad, creepy idea from the beginning.
I have never posted pictures on Facebook either, and have likewise always considered it extremely reckless for everybody else to put all of their information on there without even any protections in law and mechanisms of enforcement.
The federal government just streamlined purchasing information from data brokers, before every agency bought it piecemeal and they paid for the same information twice oftentimes. Now they basically buy everything and distribute it to the agencies that want it in an end run around the Bill of Rights. No warrants, no judges involved. Let alone probable cause or even reasonable suspicion for mass collection of data. theintercept.com/2025/05/22/in…

And who gets to control this new central government?
Will they get to live in lavish accommodations? Will they get to live a standard of living higher than the rest of the proletariat?
Marxism has never been about equality of outcome, Marx himself opposed "equalitarians" in his time. Socialism as it exists in real life recognizes the difference between more diffucult, dangerous, risky, etc labor, and often came with higher pay or reduced working hours. The disparity in socialist countries has always been far less than in capitalist countries, even countries that are still socialist but maintain markets at this stage in development like the PRC and Vietnam.
I don't like the way OP is framing it, though. Centralization gives connotations of removing bottom-up input, which is why I like the term collectivization more. Having all of production under the collective banner of the whole society, and resolving the obstacles towards such a society, is the main process of advancing socialism towards communism. This means centralization in that it reduces private and cooperative ownership to nothing, but it also retains room for local sovereignty and input that ladders upwards.

The city leadership was not gullible pawns. They were involved in setting it up for this from the start.
