#Israel levels high-rise building, threatens to strike more

The #Israeli military said in a post on X that it destroyed al-Mushtaha residential building because it was used by #Hamas, a claim denied by the #Palestinian movement.

"Hamas established infrastructure above and below the building, from which they would direct terrorist attacks against IDF troops in the area," it added.

The management of Mashtaha Tower has dismissed what it called the "occupation’s lies", confirming that the building contains no security equipment and is accessible only to displaced people.

I’ve become an old Korean lady. I periodically get up from my chair to check on the rice in my rice cooker, fluffing it to ensure it’s ready for dinner 8 hours from now.

@piersmyers every asian friend's home I've been in growing up had rice cooking at all times. Being Arabic too, rice is just a must have staple of every meal.

It's not a meal without rice. 😄



What's the least offensive VPN provider that will let me connect via standard wireguard and provides exit IPs in Ireland?

I'm curious to that answer too. Not wireguard, but I've used Tor⁠:tor: (Irish mode) before with this tweak

#WordWeavers Sep 5: Have you made eleventh hour additions to your cast? Who was it, and what led to that decision?

Not so far. Generally, the cast and story go hand-in-hand so it would be unlikely to have to add a new cast-member unless there is big change in the story itself.

good to know that I haven't lost my touch in setting up NTP.
in reply to da_667

And that is not something that you practice on the regular.
in reply to Bill

@Sempf nope, I kinda configured my pfSense vms for it and was like... "This is the right way to do it,,, I think?" and like an unbidden demon, from my days of troubleshooting overworked IDS sensors, my knowledge of ntpq and peer-checking too check time sync just took over.

in reply to da_667

I wonder if anyone who is in power has any even slight knowledge of how incredibly important people like you are to maintaining the integrity of the internet. Not just you, folks like you. There's a dozen of them, a hundred of them maybe on here. You folks keep this place running.
in reply to da_667

@Sempf but I will say, with some measure of pride, that I love how IDS rules I've made have ended up in far-reaching places. Global sandboxes for one -- Virustotal, any.run, and Joe Sandbox all have IDS rules I've written, and that is a huge ego boost.

@FritzAdalis Now don't be like that. I've SEEN you help people with stuff on here, that's plenty legacy.
in reply to Bill

@Sempf
Sure I help people, but will that outlive me? I suppose.
@Bill
in reply to Fritz Adalis

@FritzAdalis It does. My dad was a 34 year public school teacher, I learned a lot about what legacy means from him. His students, and their kids and students, *are* the legacy.
in reply to Fritz Adalis

@FritzAdalis @Sempf

I've been out of fucks to give for so long.. is vm clock skew still a thing? is host sync a better option than local vm guest NTP?

in reply to kajer

@kajer @FritzAdalis @Sempf so, I know that if you restore from snapshot, time gets VERY fucked up. and sometimes it will automatically try to sync against the hardware clock.

If not, you can run hwclock -s to force it to sync to the hardware clock.

but sometimes, the hardware clock is fucked up too in which case you can install ntpdate and run:

service stop ntp
ntpdate [ip address of your NTP server]
service start ntp

to force it to unfuck itself immediately instead of gradually, or not at all.




I think by now the notion of “asymmetric warfare” has entered the mainstream, right? The notion that new technologies and new modes of coördination permit lone actors or small groups to inflict a scale or intensity of kinetic violence it formerly would have taken the resources of a nation-state to exert?

For a few years now I’ve been curious abt the opposite case, in which new technologies and new modes of coördination permit lone actors or small groups to achieve *production* of complexity or

I am stealing this advice from two world-renowned artists (a poet and a percussionist) - "if you are not immersing yourself in the best your chosen craft has to offer, then it will be hard for you to keep improving your own craft."

Read as much as you can and some more.

Na zdjęciu widzimy scenę z dwoma osobami leżącymi na ziemi. Jeden mężczyzna leży na parkiecie, opierając głowę na oparciu zielonej ławki, ubrany w biało-czerwoną koszulę i brązowe spodnie. Druga osoba, kobieca, leży na ziemi, ubrana w niebieską bluzę i czarne spodnie. Obie osoby wyglądają na zmęczone lub nieprzytomne. Na ziemi obok kobiety leży paczka papierosów. W tle widoczna jest ściana z żółtym paneliem i okno z kratami. Na dole zdjęcia znajduje się tekst: "To mogliśmy być my ale nie piszesz."

Definitief op plek 5 op de kandidatenlijst van GroenLinks-PvdA!

Daar ben ik blij mee, want onze strijd voor betere jeugdzorg en GGZ, en het werken aan een samenleving waarin iedereen kan meedoen, is nog lang niet voorbij.

Dank aan de leden voor het vertrouwen! 🙏🏼❤️💚

Gefeliciteerd en van mij had je nog wel wat hoger gemogen.

Wel jammer dat #GroenLinksPvdA ict-expert @barbarakathmann zo laag op de lijst heeft gezet.

Dat is lief! Succes jullie en ik hoop dat @barbarakathmann met of zonder voorkeursstemmen toch weer in de Tweede Kamer komt.

Wat ook lief zou zijn, is als jullie een H4 voor de @Piratenpartij zouden willen tekenen, zodat die weer aan de TK2025 kan deelnemen.

Se non mandiamo a casa tutta la gentaglia che abbiamo al governo e rinnoviamo radicalmente la nostra politica, siamo un Paese finito.

In Italia non ci si può far giustizia da soli, deve pensarci lo Stato. Ma se lo Stato non lo fa, e anzi s’inventa una legge per cui non può perseguire determinati reati, si arriva al paradosso emerso martedì a Venezia: i borseggiatori (presunti e non) stanno iniziando a denunciare chi li filma, chi li trattiene, chi cerca di sventarne i crimini. Il caso è stato sollevato davanti ai cronisti attoniti dal comandante della polizia locale di Venezia, con accanto il sindaco Luigi Brugnaro: “Un paio di cittadini sono stati denunciati dai delinquenti – ha detto – perché di fatto non possono fermare i borseggiatori”. Ed è esploso un tema che, oltreché giuridico, è anche politico: nessun privato può trattenere una persona che ha commesso un reato non procedibile d’ufficio e, dalla riforma Cartabia, il furto con destrezza non lo è.

“Se in uno Stato di diritto i criminali dediti al borseggio, fermati più volte dalle forze dell’ordine, possono continuare ad agire indisturbati, mentre i cittadini che li hanno giustamente fotografati mentre rubano vengono denunciati per stalking, è evidente che siamo alla follia”, ha commentato il direttore della Confartigianato Venezia, Matteo Masat.

The image features a striking Lamborghini parked on a cobblestone street. The car's body is covered in a vibrant, iridescent wrap that shifts through shades of green, blue, and purple, reflecting the sunlight and surroundings. The vehicle is a convertible with its top down, showcasing its sleek design and aerodynamic lines. The front of the car is prominently visible, with its distinctive angular headlights and the Lamborghini logo on the hood. The background includes a street scene with other vehicles, pedestrians, and buildings, including a sign for "Cafe Grão de Jesus." The lighting suggests it is either early morning or late afternoon, casting long shadows and highlighting the car's reflective surface.
