Do the tears of an innocent child mean nothing to you!?
cross-posted from: hexbear.net/post/6311985
What is her fault? Why is she crying?She cries because there is no food… she cries out of fear for her father and brother who sleep outside the tent because it is too small, after we were displaced and forced to put the women inside the tents to cover them.
This is my little sister Montaha… Please, donate and extend your helping hand.
I am her brother, unable to provide for her needs. I deprive myself of food just to feed her… Please help us, people of kind hearts, true humanitarians… Make a difference in our lives.
I am dying of grief over my family and the children around me… and I am dying of hunger.
An extremely urgent plea for help

I Made a Game for Mobile Linux
cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/37124620
In hopes of helping out mobile linux, I decided to bolster its supply of mobile games. I don't know if mobile Linux needs mobile games, but I make games as a hobby and want to try to help out however I can. The code is open source and the game has been tested on my Librem 5. Code can be found on GitLab.

Ex-Ilva di Cornigliano. Quale futuro?
Sulla newsletter L'Unica Genova (vedi link sottostante) un approfondimento sul future della acciaieria Ex-Ilva di Genova-Cornigliano.
Lo stabilimento dell’ex Ilva di Genova si estende su un milione di metri quadrati tra il mare e il quartiere di Cornigliano. È il secondo più importante in Italia dopo quello di Taranto, ed è il principale punto di collegamento con gli altri impianti dell’azienda in Piemonte, come quello di Novi Ligure. A Genova, al momento, viene prodotta la banda stagnata, ovvero la latta per usi alimentari. Non a sufficienza, però: Genova ne produce centomila tonnellate all’anno, ma il Paese ne consuma 800 mila. A Genova si producono anche la banda cromata e quella zincata. Il forno elettrico del futuro, in ogni caso, dovrebbe servire non solo per la lavorazione dell’acciaio – che oggi viene spedito dallo stabilimento di Taranto – ma anche per la sua produzione. Con l’obiettivo di tutelare l’occupazione: a Cornigliano i lavoratori sono 1.200 e il piano prevede altri 700 posti di lavoro.

Israel Agrees To Go Back To Killing Palestinians On Less Frequent Basis
“In line with the terms of the deal, Hamas will release all remaining Israeli hostages, and Israel will still murder innocent Palestinian civilians on a regular basis, but at a slightly slower pace than we have been of late,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, ratifying the accord that would temporarily promote the systematic discrimination, dehumanization, and persecution of the Palestinian people over their outright genocide.
“Once the hostages are freed, we will dial down the attacks on Gaza hospitals, schools, and aid centers by roughly 10%, give or take. I have had my staff lay out a less rigorous schedule for committing atrocities, and in the down time, the IDF can always fall back on horrific maiming practices and general torture.
It was a major concession on my part, but I have been convinced that it’s the only way to get our people home safe, and for Israel to continue committing human rights violations without consequence.” Netanyahu assured the rest of the world it would soon go back to never hearing about the routine slaughter of the Palestinian people, as opposed to barely hearing about it.

The article leaves out critical context and is biased by not wording things as they are.
Here's a fairer view.
The alleged pause to the Gaza genocide - with the prospect of forcing Palestine to give up armed independence - has prompted celebrations in Israel. Their settlers anticipate that about 48 imperialist colonists will soon be released after 170,000 innocent men, women, and children have died. Yet, discontent is rumbling among the powerful Israeli fascists, with a regime minister, Bezalel Smotrich, attempting to rile up for more murder.The Israeli religious fascists, most prominently represented by Smotrich and Itamar, have tried for over two years to cheer for total annihilation of the Palestinian people, bringing Israeli colonies with them into the native soil of the Palestinian labourers. They repeatedly have refused to foster peace, instead focusing on endless war.
Neither appear supportive of the deal, although one took credit for releasing hostages, despite not being involved to any extent but to be a war criminal. The international community condemns their actions and hatred.
Samantha Power secretly colluded with Israel to enhance UN role, leaked emails show
Power is a ghoul. Three women, loads of lies and the destruction of Libya
Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice and Samantha Power were the three principal advocates of war against Libya in 2011, setting the North African nation on a free fall ever since. Demonstrations broke out in some Libyan cities against the government of late Muammar Gaddafi in February 2011, in what became known as the “Arab Spring” that engulfed the region. However, Libya’s promised spring turned into a destructive autumn during which Gaddafi was murdered on 20 October, 2011, and Libya was left anguishing in lawlessness, courtesy of the three women.In marketing the war within the ranks of the Obama administration, Power played the history card to create fear of failure and inaction by President Obama. She exaggerated events in Libya, even comparing it to the Rwandan genocide of 1994, in which nearly one million people were killed. Invoking the Rwandan experience was designed to provoke the strongest reaction by Obama, a Democrat himself, as was Bill Clinton under whose watch the Rwandan mass killing unfolded. The world later discovered that the Clinton administration knew what was going on in Rwanda, but chose to ignore it. Apparently, Power, by comparing Libya to Rwanda, wanted to warn President Obama not to ignore Libya and be accused of lying, which he did anyway in the Libyan case.
Obama, five years later in a 2016 interview, admitted that intervening in Libya was his “worst” mistake, blaming British and French leaders instead of his own advisors. None of the three advisors has ever been held accountable to answer serious questions about the Libyan fiasco. Instead, Power later served as US ambassador to the UN before joining one of the US’ top universities – Harvard, no less. Rice is a researcher at the American University in Washington, while Clinton went on to run for president, losing to Donald Trump in 2016.

Any way to defeat HDCP for Chromecast recording?
I have my Linux box running my TV and it works great, but I'd like the ability to treat my Chromecast as a desktop window for streaming without switching inputs, multitasking etc. I have an HDMI capture card that works great with a Switch, but the Chromecast detects it's not HDCP (DRM) compliant so it won't work. Is there a way to outsmart that detection with software or hardware?
I've heard some knock off hardware confuses it enough to work but it seems like the info is old and I'd rather not roll the dice on hardware that's otherwise garbage...
like this
You kinda have to play the lottery with the HDMI cards; some of the can strip it, some of them can't. And it looks like some of them strip it and get detected.
They can't advertise that as a feature either, so it's a bit of a crapshoot. It may be worth finding the latest reddit post about it to see if anyone has a specific model that was working in the past year.

For Linux gaming (including DX12), is there a strong reason to choose NVIDIA over AMD?
I have this question. I see people, with some frequency, sugar coating the Nvidia GPU marriage with Linux. I get that if you already have a Nvidia GPU or you need CUDA or work with AI and want to use Linux that is possible. Nevertheless, this still a very questionable relationship.
Shouldn’t we be raising awareness about in case one plan to game titles that uses DX12? I mean 15% to 30% performance loss using Nvidia compared to Windows, over 5% to 15% and some times same performance or better using AMD isn't something to be alerting others?
I know we wanna get more people on Linux, and NVIDIA’s getting better, but don’t we need some real talk about this? Or is there some secret plan to scare people away from Linux that I missed?
Am I misinformed? Is there some strong reason to buy a Nvidia GPU if your focus is gaming in Linux?
Edit: I'm adding some links with the issue in question because I see some comments talking about Nvidia to be working flawless:
forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/…
reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comm…
Please let me know if this is already fixed on Nvidia GPUs for gaming in Linux.
DirectX12 performance is terrible on Linux
DirectX 12 games ran through Proton/Wine on Linux perform so much worse compared to Windows. This can’t be just the overhead from the translation as AMD GPUs perform just fine, but I think it’s due to a lack of proper driver optimizations.NVIDIA Developer Forums

Two pretty massive facts for anybody trying to answer this question:
- Since driver version 555, explicit sync has been supported. This makes a massive difference to the experience on Wayland. Most of the problems people report are for drivers earlier than this (eg. black screens and flicker).
- Since driver version 580, NVIDIA uses Open Source modules to interact with the kernel. These are not Open Source drivers. They are the proprietary drivers from NVIDIA that should now “just work” across kernel upgrades (like AMD has forever). This solves perhaps the biggest hassle of dealing with NVIDIA on Linux.
Whether you get to enjoy these significant improvements depends on how long it takes stuff to make it to your distribution. If you are on Arch, you have this stuff today. If you are on Debian, you are still waiting (even on Debian 13).
This is not an endorsement of either distro. They are simply examples of the two extremes regarding how current the software versions are in those distros. Most other distros fall somewhere in the middle.
All this stuff will make it to all Linux users eventually. They are solved problems. Just not solved for everyone.
Are you sure that the DX12 performance loss is already addressed on Nvidia GPUs? Do you have a source?

US to deploy 200 troops to Israel for Gaza task force, no operations in Gaza [Steve Holland, Phil Stewart and Ismail Shakil | October 9, 2025 | reuters.com]
cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/37137415
"The United States will deploy up to 200 troops to Israel to establish a task force to support stabilization efforts in Gaza, but no Americans are expected to be deployed into the Palestinian enclave, U.S. officials said on Thursday.The U.S. military's Central Command will stand up the task force, known as the Civil-Military Coordination Center, or CMCC, one of the officials said.
The CMCC's job will be to facilitate the flow of assistance into Gaza, including security assistance and humanitarian aid, officials said.'"

Gaza: Digital Colonialism & Resistance with Omar Zahzah [🎧 60 min]
The Palestinian liberation struggle is a fundamental class and anti-colonial issue. First-time guest to the podcast, Professor Omar Zahzah, talks with Steve about the active collaboration of Silicon Valley tech giants with the US and Israeli governments to censor and suppress anti-Zionist narratives.“What these companies are doing is digitally amplifying a physical process of settler colonial dispossession.”
Omar goes beyond labeling digital censorship as simple political bias. He argues that Silicon Valley’s actions are a direct extension of imperialist goals in Palestine: the erasure of a people, their narrative, and their history. Big Tech is not a referee – not even a biased one. It is an active combatant.
Omar provides a sharp critique of how the language of safety and anti-racism is co-opted and weaponized. Online platforms use terms like “harassment” and “hate speech” to silence criticism.
In their discussion, Omar and Steve apply Antonio Gramsci’s theory of cultural hegemony to the digital sphere. They analyze how Big Tech platforms shape our “common sense,” not just through outright censorship, but through algorithmic curation, shadow-banning, and overwhelming activists with trolls and bots, waging a “digital war of attrition” that drains energy and shifts perceptions. They also suggest the potential TikTok ban is not just a US-China trade issue but a symptom of a crisis of hegemony.
Omar Zahzah is a writer, poet, organizer of Lebanese Palestinian descent, and Assistant Professor of Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas (AMED) Studies at San Francisco State University. Omar has covered digital repression in relation to Palestine as a freelance journalist since May 2021, with work appearing in such outlets as Al Jazeera, Middle East Eye, Electronic Intifada, Mondoweiss, CounterPunch, and more. Omar holds a PhD in Comparative Literature from UCLA.
His recently published book is Terms of Servitude: Zionism, Silicon Valley, and Digital Settler Colonialism in the Palestinian Liberation Struggle

Is there a community dedicated to anime where sexualization of characters is minimum and strictly no sexualization of minors (or minor looking "adults")?
I'm a casual anime fan, my main references being Ghibli, Full Metal Alchemist, Cowboy Bepop etc, in general, I like good art and good scenario.
So I want to follow discussions about this type of anime.
However, I am very uncomfortable at the countless anime that sexualize minors (and minor looking supposedly adults) or over sexualized women.
Is there a community for this interest?
I am too much of a casual to animate such community myself.

in reply to cloudless • • •The two serve similar, but different purposes. A quick guide:
Post Flair
Post flair are created per-community by the community moderators. Categorizing posts with flair makes it easy for users to just look at posts within that community with just that flair. To see what I mean, try checking out !fediverse@piefed.social and click a post flair in the sidebar there. It will filter all the posts in the community feed to just posts that have that flair. If you are familiar with post flair on reddit, this is intended to work pretty much the same way.
Tags / Hashtags
Within a community
Tags are a thing that can function in a similar way to post flair when we are talking about within a community, so I understand the confusion some people have. For example, if you click on a hashtag in the sidebar of !fediverse@piefed.social, it will similarly filter the community to just posts that have that hashtag. So...same thing, right?
Across communities
Well, hashtags can also serve another role. They can help group similar posts across multiple communities as well. For example, clicking the
#Mastodonhashtag in the sidebar of !fediverse@piefed.social community takes you to this page, where all the posts within that community using that hashtag are listed. However, posts in other communities can also use the#Mastodonhashtag...so how do we see those?The answer to that is that there is a way to search for posts by tag. Here is the page for piefed.social. You can search for a hashtag, and then when you select it, you can see all the posts (across all communities) that use that hashtag. Following up on the example we used earlier, if you want to look at all the posts using the
#Mastodonhashtag, here you go.Across the fediverse
The other thing that hashtags do that post flair doesn't is that microblogging services like mastodon understand them better. So, it helps users on other fediverse software platforms find your posts better. @rimu@piefed.social wrote a bit about that just the other day over here.
