quando Android sta zitto, la morte arriva!!! (strano bug di Android per cui la sveglia non suona)


Ultimamente ho scoperto un nuovissimo meme: “immagina che hai la sveglia per prendere l’insulina, perché hai il diabete, ma Android si dimentica e quindi MUORI“… e vabbé, ma neanche a fà così, ho pensato… Però immagina più semplicemente di avere una sveglia perché ti devi svegliare, ma Android si dimentica e quindi ti licenziano a […]

quando Android sta zitto, la morte arriva!!! (strano bug di Android per cui la sveglia non suona)


Ultimamente ho scoperto un nuovissimo meme: immagina che hai la sveglia per prendere l’insulina, perché hai il diabete, ma Android si dimentica e quindi MUORI“… e vabbé, ma neanche a fà così, ho pensato… Però immagina più semplicemente di avere una sveglia perché ti devi svegliare, ma Android si dimentica e quindi ti licenziano a lavoro, o boh, cose del genere… Se questi scenari non mi facessero sotto sotto ridere malamente, ci sarebbe oggettivamente da piangere, perché la situazione, per quanto ipotetica sembra, in realtà è realissima, e appunto non è buona. 👄

Ironicamente, visto quante rogne ho di continuo con Android e quindi lo odio, questa è una delle poche cose con cui io non ho mai avuto problemi… sia sullo Ximi, sia sul tablet, sia sul Huawi vecchio (e sull’S5 Mini non so, perché a 11-13 anni non usavo la sveglia, erano altri tempi), la sveglia è sempre suonata… poi io magari non la sento, ma quello è un problema di skill, non di Android. Invece, cercando online si trovano fin troppe segnalazioni di gente che o dice di vedere personalmente la sveglia che non suona (usando intanto altre sveglie, funzionanti, per svegliarsi), o di non ritrovarsi con la classica notifica di sveglia persa la mattina pur non avendola mai spenta… oppure, il colmo definitivo: nelle notifiche appare che la sveglia non è suonata per “motivi ignoti“! (Per chiarezza, sottinteso in tutti questi casi è che si usi la app Orologio di sistema, su ROM stock.) 💀

Quest’ultimo scenario è così assurdo che, se non ci fossero schermate a documentarlo, faticherei a crederci nonostante le tantissime segnalazioni, e penserei piuttosto sia un’allucinazione collettiva, perché sembra così campato per aria… ma, purtroppo è reale, e in realtà non dovrei sorprendermene, visto che c’è lo zampino di Google; perché questo particolare errore sembra in realtà specifico ai loro Pixel (e le recensioni della app su Google Play sono pesantemente negative anche per questo)… E ora non voglio fare il solito discorso per come lì a Mountain View dovrebbero smettere di produrre dei telefoni venduti come top di gamma che in realtà hanno tremila problemi che nessun cinesone Mediatek preso a caso da Amazon ha, e soprattutto come gli scemi dovrebbero smettere di comprarli, però porca miseria, è imbarazzante! Ma è possibile che che rompono il cazzo con l’IA e il cloud e vattelappesca e poi non funziona il fottuto orologio su sti telefoni schifosi??? 😭

La cosa curiosa, però, è che tutte queste lamentele sembrano di tempi piuttosto recenti. A parte queste con i Google Pixel, che sono notizia fresca di mesi, trovo qualcosa riguardo Samsung (ma sempre solo dalla bocca dei redditor e degli youtuber, quindi prenderei con cautela), ma usando i filtri di Google per cercare in anni già precedenti al 2020 si trova pochissima roba, mentre prima del 2015 non si trova quasi niente. Ci sarebbe a questo punto una teoria interessante da fare, cioè che è il doze di Android che rompe tutto, ma quello è stato introdotto solo una decina di anni fa con Marshmallow (…ricordavo Nougat, mi sbagliavo?), quindi non giustifica un’esplosione di problemi negli ultimissimi anni, specialmente perché chi ha problemi con le sveglie è comunque una minoranza dell’intera base di utenti di Android. Certamente, almeno per Samsung il risparmio energetico dell’OEM potrebbe centrare… 😖

Ho raccolto come sempre milioni di link, ordinati dalle discussioni più recenti alle più vecchie… tra cui anche qualcuna di due decenni fa, che però non fa testo, è giusto per sfizio, che in quei tempi Android era ancora un troiaio rotto tra diversi dispositivi… mica come oggi, che funziona sempre! (Ah ah ah!) memos.octt.eu.org/m/nMCrLjban7…. Boh, resta un mistero, perché per alcuni la soluzione è “pulisci la cache dell’orologio” (che è una frase così distopica che mi sento male solo a scriverla, cazzo se ODIO dove ci ha portati la tecnologia!), per altri non ci sta versi, e da quando su Android ci sono tutte le cose di risparmio energetico forzato io nemmeno mi fiderei ad usare app di sveglia terze, perché pure quelle magari non suonano (c’è una API in Android che le app a tempo possono usare per impostare timer di attivazione eh, ma non è che funzioni perfettamente e ovunque, siamo sempre lì, maremma bona)… un disastro. 💥

France recognises Palestine and calls for UN force in Gaza


Emmanuel Macron has announced France’s official recognition of the State of Palestine, setting out a plan for a UN-mandated international stabilisation force in postwar Gaza that is expected to find support in many countries but not in Israel or the US.

“The time has come to end the war in Gaza, the massacres and the death,” Macron said during a speech opening a special summit in the United Nations general assembly hall on Monday evening. “The time has come to do justice for the Palestinian people and thus to recognise the State of Palestine in Gaza, the West Bank and Jerusalem.”

The statements drew cheers and standing ovations from some in the hall, with the Palestinian Authority (PA) hailing France’s “historic and courageous” decision, but the session was not attended by the US and Israeli officials dismissed the initiative.




Ladybird - A browser built for the user


Hello guys, today I wanted to talk about a project I deeply care about and I'm actively contributing to, as I believe its good for everyone, including privacy concerned users

Ladybird Browser


This browser comes from the project "SerenityOS", and has since evolved and separated from it. The founders are Andreas Kling, and Chris Wanstrath. The main goal of this project is to create a browser from scratch, avoiding chromium, gecko, etc. The main keypoints that should be of interest for Privacy Oriented Users are the following:

  • Ladybird lead (Andreas Kling) states "We're not monetizing users, in any way. This is uncharted territory for browsers. So we're not going to do any default search deals. We're not going to do cryptocurrencies or try to monetize user data, just sponsorships and donations"
  • While** Ladybird will implement current web standards including cookie handling and tracking mechanisms for compatibility**, the browser's philosophy puts the user in control of these decisions, not the company. The browser won't have built-in incentives to encourage data collection since it doesn't profit from it.
  • It aims to be "free from advertising's influence" Ladybird, representing a shift away from the current web ecosystem where users like us are the product. This allows the project to implement privacy features without worrying about harming advertising partners or revenue streams.

As of now, the project has hired several developers with money coming from donations, from partners such as FUTO, Shopify, Cloudflare, among many, and is also seeing lots of volunteer activity on github. So well, if you like the web having more diversity and us having another alternative to google, check them out ladybird.org/

in reply to shaytan

There's also !Servo@programming.dev browser engine that is being actively developed.





MIT Professor Cancels Israeli Military Grant After Student Pressure


Pro-Palestine student activists across the country have struggled to get their universities to respond to pressure for divestment from Israel and its military–industrial complex. So when a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology withdrew from a grant from the Israeli military after hearing feedback from students protesting the ongoing genocide in Gaza, it was especially welcome news.

“This is one of the only cases where we know that student activism and public pressure led directly to an Israeli tie being cut, let alone a collaboration with its genocidal military,” said Mila Halgren, a postdoctoral associate at MIT. (The university did not respond to a request for comment.)

MIT has come under internal and public scrutiny for conducting research on warfare technology sponsored by Israel. In July, the United Nations condemned the school for conducting “weapons and surveillance research funded by the Israeli ministry of defense — the only foreign military financing research at the institute.”

That research included projects on drone swarm control — technology which the Israeli military has used during its siege on Gaza — pursuit algorithms, and underwater surveillance.

Swapping GPU


Hi, as you can from see from my previous posts I installed Linux in all my machines. Now I have a PC with an I5 6500 (with Mint on it) and I'm upgrading the GPU. So, do I just open it put the new one and connect the cables? Or do I have to do some thing first? Thank you for all your help.
in reply to utnapishtim

As a double check (or check before buying) you can search for your new GPU on linux-hardware.org/ to see if other users have it working without any issues. The hardware probe is also a handy tool to share your PC's specs if you should ever need to do so!
in reply to utnapishtim

You didn't say which GPU! If it's all AMD, then just replace. That's what I did and everything worked fine. If you're going from AMD to Nvidia, them install the Nvidia drivers first, turn it off, replace, turn back on

How is Photoshop performance on WinApps?


I spent much of today trying to get WinApps running on NixOS. The VM performance is meh after following all the setup steps in the documentation, and I can't get the RDP part working. I'm not asking for help, which would probably take lots of back and forth commenting. but if I should even try to continue. The steps don't even mention Nix, only how to install dependencies via package managers.

I tried finding videos of Photoshop in WinApps but didn't find any, to see what performance actually looks like. Would it even be decent, or should I just suck it up and do GPU passthrough? Ideally I'd like Photoshop a window part of my linux desktop instead of switching back and forth between OSes. Making something work has been a PITA so far.

in reply to somerandomperson

A lot of advance features of Photoshops simply does not exist on any FOSS alternative.
in reply to somerandomperson

I'm actually a Photoshop and CSP users that regularly report missing features to Krita and GIMP.
Even Krita dev often ask community which featuers they want from CSP.
Some example that GIMP and Krita does not have that I remember:
- 3D environment (available on CSP and PS)
- flexible several document views (only on CSP)
- adjustable anchor resize (only on CSP)

Adobe was never good, will never be good, is not good

if you're switching to linux might as well stop using ps (more like BS)

Documents offer rare insight on Ice’s close relationship with Palantir


cross-posted from: sh.itjust.works/post/46573950

For years, little was known about how Ice uses Palantir’s technology. The company has consistently described itself as a “data processor” and says it does not play an active role in any of its customers’ data collection efforts or what clients do with that information.

Now, a cache of internal Ice documents – including hundreds of pages of emails between Ice and Palantir, as well as training manuals, and reports on the use of Palantir products – offer some of the first real-world examples of how Ice has used Palantir in its investigations and during on-the-ground enforcement operations.

The documents, which were obtained by immigrant legal rights group Just Futures Law through a Freedom of Information Act request and reviewed by the Guardian, largely cover Palantir’s contract with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the investigative arm of Ice that is responsible for stopping the “illegal movement of people, goods, money, contraband, weapons and sensitive technology”.

Palantir recently won a $30m contract to build the government a new platform called ImmigrationOS that will service Ice branches beyond HSI, and aims to “streamline” the identification and deportation of immigrants. While the documents are largely limited to HSI’s operations, it’s easy to see how the tools could be of use to other branches of Ice.

One document showed that agents could use Falcon to search for people’s names, known locations, vehicles or passport information against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other federal databases like the Enforcement Integrated Database (EID) – a vast database that holds biometric and personal information on anyone who has been encountered or arrested, detained or deported by any DHS agency – on the go.

In addition to collecting and analyzing field interviews, the agents used Falcon for “blueforce tracking”, a military term for tracking someone’s GPS location. Training documents show Ice agents could also use Falcon to track a person’s location, including their “route and movement”, hour by hour using cell phone tower records.




CGNAT and initial seeding


If I create a new torrent, does CGNAT (carrier-grade network address translation) prevent me from being an initial seeder of that torrent? I've made test torrents before and noticed that none of them seemed to be downloadable. Seeding the test torrents on a VPS of mine with a public IP has surprisingly worked before.

I can download and upload in my torrent client just fine, so I know my ISP isn't (intentionally) blocking and firewalling torrents.

in reply to Lemuria

I know my answer is not what you’re looking for but the other two comments should suffice so

Consider IPv6 if possible

Questa voce è stata modificata (1 mese fa)
in reply to Linearity

I am actively considering IPv6. But I don't have it yet. Now I'm just waiting for my ISP to consider it 😀

Fuck ISPs that insist on keeping you stuck in CGNAT jail without a routable IPV6 prefix!

Questa voce è stata modificata (1 mese fa)
in reply to Lemuria

If your box isn't globally addressable (because of NAT), your box can't be connected to. It works one way only, from the inside out - because the NAT-router keeps track of the connections your box makes to globally addressable hosts and forwards reply packages back to your box.

You could use IPv6 which because of the vast amounts of ipv6-addresses, eliminates the need for NAT. Or you could use a VPN or a tunneling service which gives you a dedicated IP. Or port forwarding from a globally addressable host. Either self hosted or as a service. Switch to an ISP which doesn't do CGNAT.

In short: ipv6 is easiest.😀

Edit: does anybody know if a non addressable seed box gets info about interested and globally addressable peers somehow (either tracker or tracker-less) so it can initiate a TCP connection to those peers? Are there resources to read up in that topic?

in reply to Shibco

While I agree with the overall premise, it's not a great article. The author just quotes facts while drawing no relevant conclusions or wrong conclusions.

The fact that there is fraud in Estonia, like any other country, is, I imagine, due to people being stupid. In my country most fraud cases are grandmas handing off their pensions to randos to help their grandchild escape prison or to help with a super secret government mission to catch thieves. Similar to the classic Nigerian prince schemes. Not once does the author mention how digital ID's are connected to fraud or how they enabled money laundering.

I hope that the author is just not that great of a writer and not malicious because throwing in scary statistics and names like Palantir without making any conclusion as to how digital ID's could exarcebate the problem, really feels like fearmongering.

Nevertheless, I quite liked the website design and the extensive quotation of sources.

in reply to machiavellian

Author here, consider exploring more of the work. The text is one chapter of a larger research project around digital identity: newdesigncongress.org/everythi…
in reply to Shibco

Will do. Also rereading my first comment I realised that I was perhaps overly negative which was not at all my intention. Apologies.

While your here, I wanted to ask if I missed anything from the article or is my criticism valid?

in reply to machiavellian

The article is the opening foreword for a larger report on digital identity that we have been publishing for the last few months. We had to pause recently, for reasons beyond our control, but everything in the article is backed up by either chapters already published on the site, or by forthcoming chapters.

President Sheinbaum Refers to israel Crimes in Gaza as "Genocide"


cross-posted from: hexbear.net/post/6217252

For the first time, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has acknowledged that israel is committing a genocide in Gaza, this morning at her daily press conference. Previously when questioned during her Mañaneras del Pueblo, the morning press conferences she holds, she referred to it as a “war,” and used more neutral language, despite Mexico signing on to both the International Court of Justice and International Criminal Court cases against israel in 2024.

“We have supported, from President López Obrador and now all the complaints that have been presented together with the Chilean government regarding the situation in Gaza and the entire position, in agreement with the international community, is to stop this genocide in Gaza. That is our position,” she said.

“We want the genocide in Gaza to stop. There can be no aggression against the civilian population.”

“The first time that Mexico recognizes a Palestinian ambassador with all her rights is in our government,” the President added.

Mexico’s Ambassador to Colombia had attended the most recent Hague Group meeting where multiple countries, but had not joined in any of the actions other countries took against israel.

Over the weekend, a coalition of 300 trade unions initiated a campaign to pressure the Mexican government to take a proactive stance against the genocide, marching through Mexico City, and on Sunday evening, activists illuminated the Monument to the Revolution with a demand that President Claudia Sheinbaum condemn the genocide in Gaza, with projections stating that “neutrality was complicity,” and Mexico is with Palestine.

As a state signatory to the Genocide Convention, Mexico has obligations under international law to actively take measures to prevent and to punish the crime of genocide, including by enacting relevant legislation and punishing perpetrators, from public officials to private individuals, which could include multiple businesspeople who do business in Mexico, as well as IDF soldiers who vacation in the country. Mexico is also obligated to act to prevent genocide extraterritorially.

Scifi that starts normal then goes cosmic


I really enjoy sci-fi that starts grounded in reality — that eases you in with a slow build, a sense of normalcy, before the shift. I love when the story begins in the everyday, then opens into something strange and vast. Think the beginning of The Matrix or Old Man’s War, perhaps? That kind of vibe. Any recommendations?



Hundreds plunge into Chicago River in city’s first open-water swim in nearly a century (results of governmental, environmental clean-up)


Swimming in the river used to be a key facet of Chicago life, but by the 1920s, sewage and industrial runoff had made the river unsafe to swim in. According to event organizers, official swim events in the Chicago River ended in 1926.

Event organizers said the Chicago River is now at its cleanest levels on record, the result of a concerted effort to clean up, improve wastewater management and push for stricter water-quality standards.

Maintaining the health of waterways in urban areas contributes to the public health and wellness of cities, and it reduces extreme heat risks from climate change, said Margaret Frisbie, executive director of Friends of the Chicago River.

The advocacy group, founded in 1979, has long worked to protect and restore the Chicago River, for example pushing for discharge from water treatment plants to be disinfected before being released into the river, Frisbie said.

JUNO completed liquid filling and begins data taking

New type of detector enables deeper understanding of the universe

The underground “Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO)” near Jiangmen city in the Guangdong Province, which was prepared with the participation of researchers from the PRISMA+ Cluster of Excellence at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), has successfully completed the filling of its 20,000 tons of liquid scintillator and begun data taking. After more than a decade of preparation and construction, JUNO is the first of a new generation of very large neutrino experiments to reach this stage. Initial trial operation and data taking show that key performance indicators met or exceeded design expectations, enabling JUNO to tackle one of this decade’s major open questions in particle physics: the ordering of neutrino masses—whether the third mass state (ν₃) is heavier than the second (ν₂).
