Hind Rajab Foundation files ICC complaint against 24 'Israeli' soldiers over Rajab family murder
One day after the broadcast of the Al Jazeera documentary, which revealed the identities of 'Israeli' commanders and soldiers responsible for the killing of six-year-old Hind Rajab, the Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) submitted a 120-page Article 15 communication to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.
The filing names 24 'Israeli' soldiers and commanders allegedly responsible for the deaths of Hind Rajab, six members of her family, and two Palestinian Red Crescent paramedics, Yusuf al-Zeino and Ahmed al-Madhoun, who were deliberately targeted while attempting to rescue the girl on 29 January 2024 in Gaza City.
Why is it that my sister and I have different latest kernel versions, even though we both have Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon?
My kernel version is ‘6.8.0-87-generic’ and hers is ‘6.14.00-33-generic’. My brother, who uses CachyOS, has kernel version '6.17.1-2-cachyos'. So it makes a little sense that the kernel is different. Even though I always thought that there was just one kernel that all Linux versions use.
But why is there a different kernel for the same distro?

Epstein had dinners with a top prosecutor on his case, docs show
Jeffrey Epstein had multiple appointments, phone calls and dinners with Matthew Menchel — the Miami U.S. Attorney’s office chief criminal prosecutor who spearheaded Epstein’s sweetheart deal in 2007, newly released documents show.
A tranche of over 8,500 pages of records from Epstein’s estate — released by the House Oversight Committee Friday — show that Epstein’s calendars and emails reflect that Menchel, who left the DOJ in 2007, had multiple meetings or dinners with Epstein in 2011, 2013 and 2017. Lawmakers also referred to a photograph of Menchel on a ski trip with Epstein sometime in the 2000s, but didn’t produce the photo.

The White House Is Already the 2nd-Most Blocked Account on BlueSky — After JD Vance
The Trump White House joined Bluesky in October 2025, quickly becoming the platform's second most-blocked account with over 92,000 blocks, trailing only Vice President JD Vance who has accumulated 166,000 blocks since June1.
The White House's debut post featured a 52-second video montage of President Trump's "greatest hits" since returning to office, including clips mocking political opponents2. The administration's arrival on Bluesky was particularly notable as the platform had become a haven for Trump critics and left-leaning users who fled X (formerly Twitter) after the 2024 election2.
For comparison, Bluesky's most followed accounts paint a different picture of the platform's user base:
- Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: 2.17 million followers
- Mark Cuban: 1.49 million followers
- Mark Hamill: 1.31 million followers1

'Trump demanded screaming and swearing that Zelensky give up territory'
After a period when President Trump seemed to be more inclined to the Ukrainian side, he now seems to be taking the side of Russia again. On board his plane the Air Force One he told reporters that Ukraine and Russia should stop fighting and that he wants to leave the situation in the largely Russia-occupied Donbas as he is.
And the British newspaper the Financial Times (FT) writes that the meeting between Trump and Zelensky at the White House went dramatically Friday. Trump is said to have urged Zelensky to accept the Russian conditions for ending the war and to give up the Donbas to Russia.
Based on sources, the newspaper reports that Trump warned that Russian President Putin will "destroy" Ukraine if the country does not cooperate.
Turn of Trump
A little over a month ago, Trump said Ukraine could win the war with the support of the European Union. Then he was remarkably positive about that. In a post on Truth Social, he stated that the country, with the help of the EU and NATO, can take back all territories occupied by Russia.
It seems that last Thursday's phone conversation with Putin has changed his mind.
According to the FT and The Washington Post, the Russian president has made a new proposal whereby Ukraine will give up the Donetsk and Luhansk regions in exchange for small parts of Cherson and Zaporizha. Exactly that exchange would have been introduced to Zelensky on Friday.
Two sources told Reuters that they had the impression that Trump was influenced by Putin. Trump and Putin have agreed to meet in Budapest in a few weeks.
Screaming
Zelensky came to Washington on Friday in the hope of getting more weapons from the U.S., but according to insiders, the meeting degenerated into a screaming party, with Trump constantly cursing.
That this was not an incident turned out last night on board the Air Force One. Trump said the Donbas region - in southeastern Ukraine - should be divided "in the way that it is now." "Negotiation is possible later," he said. "Go home, stop fighting and stop killing people."
The Donbas consists of the regions of Luhansk and Donetsk. Luhansk is almost entirely occupied by Russia, Donetsk about three quarters.
What Trump is asking of Ukraine:

Seven Palestinians killed in new Israeli attacks; Hamas will hand over two more Israeli captives; and Trump's $200 million White House ballroom
cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/37864974
Gaza’s Health Ministry reports 13 Palestinians killed—including seven killed in new Israeli attacks—with six recovered from under the rubble and at least eight wounded arriving at hospitals in the past 24 hours. Hamas says it will hand over the remains of two more Israeli captives. At least 135 of the mutilated Palestinian bodies returned to Gaza were traced to Israel’s infamous Sde Teiman military prison, the Guardian reports; doctors say autopsies indicate summary executions and systematic torture. President Donald Trump believes Hamas leaders are willing to negotiate “in good faith,” a White House source told the New York Times; President Trump posted on Truth Social that “if Hamas continues to act badly, in violation of their agreement with us…an end to Hamas will be FAST, FURIOUS, & BRUTAL!” UN OCHA records 71 settler attacks in the West Bank between October 7 and October 13 of this year, resulting in one death and 99 injuries; Israeli forces storm the city of Nablus and the town of Barqin. ICE finds itself in need of “medical professionals” on account of the numerous deaths of migrants in its custody. American banks struggle to find full funding for the US’s $40 billion bailout of Argentina in support of its leader Javier Milei. U.S. diplomats are attempting to broker a peace deal between the Moroccan and Algerian governments, who broke ties in 2021 in a dispute over the Western Sahara. A new airstrip is being constructed on an island between Yemen and Eritrea. A contingent of 350 U.S. military advisers will remain in Iraq to counter the Islamic State, its president says, despite an agreement to leave by September. Attacks in the Sahel by armed groups linked to Al Qaeda and the Islamic State have surged from 1,900 in 2023 to 5,500 in 2024, with 3,800 already this year, AFP reports.

Biden’s ex-press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre: ‘Why are Democrats not fighting back?’
While this is nominally an account of past events, I can't in good conscience place a book-tour piece in U.S. News.
When CJ Cregg exits the White House for the last time, a passing tourist asks her if she works there. “No,” she replies in the final episode of The West Wing, “No, I’m sorry I don’t.” The former press secretary casts a wistful glance back at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, knowing life will never be the same.The evanescence of power is now familiar to Karine Jean-Pierre, who in real life served as White House press secretary for two and a half years under the presidency of Joe Biden. She was the first Black person, first openly gay person and – born in the Caribbean to Haitian parents – first immigrant to hold the title.
But the old saying that all political lives end in failure applies to their spokespeople too. Jean-Pierre spent her final months in the West Wing parrying questions about Biden’s mental acuity, an exercise that increasingly came to be seen as defending the indefensible. She watched as her boss’s legacy was undone, his numerous accomplishments eclipsed by his failure to prevent the return of Donald Trump.
That the whole experience ended on a sour note is made clear by the publication of Jean-Pierre’s memoir Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines. Its front cover offers an image of the White House, seen not through Cregg’s rose-tinted gaze but rather a cracked lens.

Small businesses and states ask court to uphold orders striking down Trump’s tariffs
Lawyers for small businesses and states challenging President Donald Trump’s authority to impose sweeping tariffs on almost all goods imported into the United States urged the Supreme Court on Monday to leave in place rulings by lower courts that struck down most of the tariffs. One group of small businesses told the justices that the tariffs “have equated to the largest peacetime tax increase in American history,” while another contends that the tariffs “upend[] a century of trade law.”
Trump’s executive orders relied on a federal law, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, that gives the president the power to take action to “deal with any unusual and extraordinary threat, which has its source in whole or substantial part outside the United States, to the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States” if he declares a national emergency “with respect to such threat.” When there is a national emergency, the president under IEEPA can “regulate . . . importation” of “property in which any foreign country or national thereof has any interest.”
In Washington, D.C., a pair of small businesses that make educational toys and products went to federal court to challenge the tariffs. The companies, Learning Resources and hand2mind, contend that the tariffs will cost them $100 million this year – nearly 45 times as much as they paid during 2024

Trump-GOP Giveaway to Big Pharma Will Hit Taxpayers With $9 Billion in Higher Drug Costs
The CBO initially projected that the provision, known as the ORPHAN Cures Act, would cost around $5 billion over the next decade. But the office said Monday that its earlier assessment did not take into account several major, high-priced drugs that will be exempted from Medicare price negotiations as a result of the Trump-GOP law.
Among the drugs included in the new CBO analysis is Keytruda, a cancer medication sold by Merck that carries a list price of $24,062 every six weeks. The Trump GOP-budget law delays Keytruda’s eligibility for Medicare price negotiations by at least a year, postponing significant potential savings for taxpayers and patients.
Merith Basey, executive director of Patients for Affordable Drugs Now, said in response to the updated CBO analysis that “the ORPHAN Cures Act is a wildly expensive handout to Big Pharma that will harm patients, drain taxpayer dollars, and weaken the government’s ability to rein in high drug prices.”

Who is paying for Donald Trump's new White House ballroom? "I view this enormous ballroom as an ethics nightmare," says former chief ethics lawyer
The US president has said that he personally will pay for significant portions of its construction, and suggested that some still anonymous donors would be willing to spend more than $20m to complete the project.
The funding model has sparked concern among some legal experts, who say it may amount to paying for access to the administration.
"I view this enormous ballroom as an ethics nightmare," Richard Painter, a former chief ethics lawyer in the Bush White House between 2005 and 2007, told the BBC.
"It's using access to the White House to raise money. I don't like it," he added. "These corporations all want something from the government."
A dinner for potential donors held at the White House on 15 October included senior executives from prominent American companies including Blackstone, OpenAI, Microsoft, Coinbase, Palantir, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Amazon and Google.

Huawei e l'indipendenza energetica europea
Huawei è una importante azienda cinese che opera anche sul mercato del fotovoltaico controllando la produzione di gran parte degli inverter che vengono installati negli impianti fotovoltaici, rendendo quindi la produzione di energia solare dipendente dai prodotti di questa azienda. Pare sia stata coinvolta in una inchiesta per corruzione nei confronti di alcuni deputati del parlamento europeo.
In questo articolo del 11 ottobre 2025 di Giulio Cavalli, dal titolo: "Il caso Huawei e la contraddizione dell’Ue sull’indipendenza energetica" su Lettera43 se ne parla, mettendo in evidenza la dipendenza industriale dell'Europa, soprattutto dai produttori cinesi.

The AWS Outage Was a Nightmare for College Students
When Abby Fagerlin tried logging into Canvas, a popular educational technology platform, to check on her assignments Monday morning, she couldn’t get in.That meant the 19-year-old college sophomore, who is studying physics at Pasadena City College, was unable to access materials she needed for her three classes, which were hosted on or linked through the learning management system. After searching online, she realized the Amazon Web Services outage that crippled much of the internet Monday had also temporarily taken down Canvas.
Fagerlin also couldn’t be sure if she’d missed a message from her professors—some of whom she said communicated exclusively with their students through a messaging system hosted on Canvas. Going to talk to one of her professors to ask for physical materials from his class, meanwhile, posed a separate challenge.
“His office hours are [posted] on Canvas,” she said.
It wasn’t just Fagerlin having problems. More than a dozen students at colleges and universities across the country told WIRED the Canvas outage threw off their schedules, preventing them from not just submitting and viewing assignments but also from participating in-class activities, contacting professors, and accessing the textbooks and other materials they need to study.
[...]the disruptions to students are a testament to just how popular Canvas is on college campuses—and how much of modern educational life is increasingly centered on a handful of educational technology platforms.

Cesare Pavese
Raccolta di poesie
giugno 2023
Rilegato
128
Pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1936 – mentre Pavese si trova al confino a Brancaleone Calabro – la raccolta poetica “Lavorare stanca” racchiude i temi che resteranno centrali in tutta la sua opera. Con i versi lunghi, di tredici o sedici sillabe, e uno stile semplice e diretto in contrasto con quello dell’epoca, Pavese apre la strada a un nuovo mondo narrativo, in cui le poesie hanno l’aria di racconti, microstorie. Nonostante i riferimenti a luoghi a lui conosciuti, l’autore dona a ogni elemento – le stelle, l’alba, le colline, ma anche la città, gli uomini e le donne – una dimensione mitica, universale, e fa emergere tra le pagine fitte, distinta, la presenza di un «Io» ingombrante, pur se mimetizzato negli altri. Un viaggio che evoca con nostalgia non solo il passato, ma anche un futuro su cui egli già proietta tutto il senso di inadeguatezza e l’irrimediabilità della propria solitudine. Prefazione di Simona Mingardi.
Rileggere Pavese come se fossimo noi a tornare a casa la sera.
Non ci può essere migliore recensione, per un libro di poesie, se non quella che lo stesso autore scrive. Probabilmente questo lo sapeva anche Pavese che nei due testi in appendice alla sua opera spiega perfettamente le percezioni che la lettura mi aveva dato. In particolare a pag. 120 leggiamo:
Definito “Lavorare stanca” come l’avventura dell’adolescente che, orgoglioso della sua campagna, immagina consimile la città, ma vi trova la solitudine e vi rimedia col sesso e la passione che sevono solo a gettarlo lontano da campagna e città, in una più tragica solitudine che è la fine dell’adolescenza […]
C’è una stanchezza che non passa. Non quella delle braccia, ma quella che scava dentro e non trova nome. Quella di chi lasciava le Langhe per la scintillante città e le sue promesse. Quella di chi si sottrae alla carezza della brezza marina e allo sguardo delle esperidi per un nebbioso posto fisso (non parlo di Pavese). Ma anche di chi è strappato alle proprie radici dall’istinto di sopravvivenza. Pavese siamo noi nel tempo e nello spazio alla ricerca spesso di un orizzonte che si sottrae ad ogni passo. E che per ogni passo in avanti che ci sembrerà di fare non sarà mai più vicino rispetto al punto dal quale eravamo partiti. È come se il percorso obbligato di crescità che la modernità ci ha imposto non facesse altro che allontanarci dall’essere umani mentre ci affanniamo a diventare persone.
La città mi ha insegnato infinite paure
Poesie e poetica
La sua lingua è nuda, prosastica, quasi sgraziata. È il contrario della poesia come la immaginavano gli altri: Pavese non vuole consolare, vuole far vedere.
C’è il lavoro, sì, ma dietro il lavoro c’è l’assenza. L’impossibilità di stare davvero con gli altri, la solitudine come condizione naturale. In questa raccolta, l’uomo è un animale separato: guarda, ricorda, desidera, ma non si muove più. Il mito — quello che Pavese inseguirà sempre — qui è solo un’eco lontana, un sogno che non sa ancora di esserlo.
Cosa rimane
Eppure qualcosa resta. Nella polvere delle Langhe, nei paesi immobili, nei versi che sembrano camminare e non arrivare mai, c’è una specie di pietà. Pavese non giudica ma osserva. La sua poesia è stanca ma lucida, come chi ha smesso di cercare risposte e continua comunque a fare domande.
La vite, la vite e la donna
Come già egregiamente espresso nella recensione de “La Luna e i falò”, scritta da Cristina Desideri per il nostro blog, l’uva e il lavoro che la circonda è un tema centrale anche in Lavorare stanca. Una vite che è la vita stessa che assorbe e rimanda le personalità di chi gli vive intorno, come fa con i profumi e gli aromi delle erbe che crescono nelle sue vicinanze. Una vite che si confonde poeticamente con il desiderio e quindi, per Pavese, con la donna. Un appagamento fugace di felicità terrena e di senso di libertà che si può raggiungere talvolta in un orgasmo etilico o erotico.
Questa raccolta, infine, è un bazar di profumi e sensazioni. Talvolta disturbanti. C’è quasi bisogno, tra una poesia e l’altra di annusare dei chicchi di caffè, come facevano alcuni profumieri del passato, per resettare il naso e predisporlo a una nuova esperienza sinestetica.
La casa editrice
Una menzione di merito va certamente alla casa editrice “4 Punte Edizioni” che ha scelto di ripubblicare questa raccolta. I chiodi a “4 Punte” erano uno strumento di sabotaggio e resistenza usato dai partigiani. I libri “resistenti” che fanno parte della collana #ilTrenoVersoSud ci rinnovano la necessità di sabotare con ogni mezzo controculturale l’egemonia indifferente e repressiva che troppo spesso si respira in questo paese.
L’eccellente prefazione di Simona Mingardi riesce a spaziare in poche righe tra i sentimenti e le opere di Pavese, aiutandoci a comprendere la raccolta.
Un piccolo aneddoto
Cesare Pavese fu vittima della repressione fascista che lo costrinse al confino, presso Brancaleone (RC) tra il 1935 – 36′.
Lo scorso agosto, durante un evento di presentazione di una mia raccolta di poesie svoltasi a Bova Marina (RC), ho avuto modo di conoscere il fratello di un altro confinato politico antifascista. Anch’egli confinato sempre a Brancaleone, nello stesso periodo di Pavese. Il fratello mi ha raccontato che Pavese, essendo un ospite di “spicco”, riceveva talvolta delle sigarette o altre piccole gentilezze dai carcerieri ma non era solito condividere tali “gioie” con gli altri reclusi che certamente non apprezzavano questa caratteristica. Una piccola storia nella storia che certamente nulla toglie al grande poeta ma ci dona una punta di colore nell’affresco del poeta.

My first months in cyberspace
In early 1995 I was 23 and living in a terraced house in Bristol with four friends, about 18 months after leaving university. I’d given up on trying to be an illustrator, had a bit of freelance work making models for Aardman Animations, and would soon be the only one of my friends not to have permanent work. I was increasingly interested in technology and this brand new thing: Internet.

Extra recommendations: subscribe to some Linux newsletter to stay informed on future releases.

in reply to jesale • • •Yeah. If you upgraded to Mint 22.2 from 22.1, you will still be on kernel 6.8. But I believe if you installed via a full install directly to 22.2, you will be on kernel 6.14.
You can upgrade the Mint kernel to 6.14 via ~~Software~~ Update Manager > View > Linux Kernels. No full reinstall required.
Though, OP, unless there is a specific reason to change it or you just like doing so, I would leave it alone: don't fix things that aren't broken.
