Yesterday's sewing! The finished tucks, helpfully sat on by a cat. A placket on the very fine voile, and a bunch of machine felled seams on the back skirt pieces, not automagically because the fabric too thin for my flat felling foot. I couldn't be bothered to trim the seam allowances so I just staggered them prior to sewing, it's not incredibly precisely sized so the half centimetre of excess per seam is alright!
#Today 31
Good day!
Ghost tree. If you’ve never hiked in the clouds, I recommend it.
Sure, it was damp & chilly, but it was also surreal. The world becomes more intimate when that astonishing drop off the side of the trail is suddenly not there.
Nothing is there.
Be everwell.

La Marina e Corpo dei Marines testano sistema di sorveglianza con palloni e droni a idrogeno
Presso il campo di addestramento militare Outlying Landing Field Seagle in California, la Marina e il Corpo dei Marines degli Stati Uniti hanno testato un nuovo sistema che consente alle navi di “vedere oltre l’orizzonte”.
Dal 19 al 21 maggio, gli specialisti hanno dimostrato una combinazione di palloni ad alta quota e droni, entrambi dispositivi alimentati a idrogeno. L’esperimento ha concluso un programma quadriennale finanziato tramite l’OECIF del Dipartimento della Difesa degli Stati Uniti, responsabile dell’implementazione di soluzioni energetiche innovative.
L’idea chiave è quella di utilizzare l’idrogeno sia come gas di sollevamento per i palloni sia come carburante per i droni. Questo approccio riduce la dipendenza da una logistica complessa e consente operazioni di sorveglianza, ricognizione, targeting e comunicazione a lungo termine. Rick Stroman, responsabile della Sezione Energie Alternative dell’NRL, ha osservato che il gas potrebbe sostituire l’elio nei palloni militari, alimentando contemporaneamente droni a lunga autonomia. L’uso combinato estende anche il raggio di controllo facendo rimbalzare i segnali dai gusci.
Le piattaforme ad alta quota possono trasportare sensori e transponder. Se abbinate ai droni, riducono il numero di missioni e ampliano l’area di monitoraggio. RuthAnn Darling, direttrice del programma di innovazione energetica del Dipartimento della Difesa, ha sottolineato che la mobilità è impossibile senza un approvvigionamento energetico sostenibile, che si tratti di navi, aerei o sistemi senza pilota.
Ha aggiunto che l’uso delle tecnologie a idrogeno è particolarmente importante quando si opera in aree disperse e su isole remote, dove l’approvvigionamento tradizionale è difficile. Il Corpo dei Marines ha espressamente invitato i Marines a valutare il sistema.
La capacità di mantenere un carico utile su un pallone per settimane dopo il lancio rappresenta un punto di svolta per la ricognizione, afferma il Capitano Joshua Ashley dell’Expeditionary Power Directorate. Un coinvolgimento tempestivo consente ai Marines non solo di influenzare le priorità della ricerca, ma anche di prepararsi all’impiego militare.
La Marina dispone già di radar, satelliti e droni per estendere il suo raggio di sorveglianza, ma gli avversari cercano sempre più di accecare o bloccare questi mezzi attraverso la guerra elettronica.
Ciò rende fondamentali la resilienza e l’indipendenza dalle forniture di carburante esterne. I test hanno confermato che una combinazione di pallone aerostatico a idrogeno e drone può fornire ricognizioni oltre la linea di vista da una nave, prolungandone la durata e aumentandone l’efficacia.
L'articolo La Marina e Corpo dei Marines testano sistema di sorveglianza con palloni e droni a idrogeno proviene da il blog della sicurezza informatica.
In a 204-page report titled Voices of the Genocide, the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (#PCHR) concluded that Israel has committed four of the five acts prohibited under the 1948 #Genocide Convention, with the intent to destroy #Palestinians in #Gaza as a group.
The report, released on Thursday, echoes others by Israeli and major international rights groups which also characterise Israel’s actions in Gaza as a genocide, and call for action to stop the most serious crime under international #law.
Sourani said that the suffering of the Palestinian people during the Gaza genocide is the worst since the creation of @israel
“Not even the 1948 #Nakba, with its brutal killings, forced displacement, and uprooting, nor the 1956 war and the 1967 Israeli occupation of the rest of its territory, the Sinai Peninsula, and the Golan Heights, can compare to the magnitude of destruction and bloodshed that Gaza is experiencing today,” he said.
Sourani also accused the #USA and western states of complicity in Israel’s actions.
Sourani, who is one of Gaza's most prominent human rights defenders and represents Palestine at international courts, told Middle East Eye the report came at a high cost.

Sometimes technology changes slowly, almost without notice. One small change here, one new requirement there... and suddenly you realize something important is gone. That something meant to be free and open starts looking like something completely different.
" title="
"/> Google announced that every app - even those outside the Play Store - will have to be signed by a verified developer. Officially, it's about security 🛡️ Malware, phishing, scams - all real threats. And yet, something about this decision doesn't sit right with me
Because if every app must be linked to a verified identity, submitted to and approved by " title="
"/>, then this is no longer a neutral environment. It's a centralized control structure, leaving no room for anonymity, independence, or alternative ways to develop software ⛓️
This isn't about users - they just want things to work ⚙️ It's developers who face the problem. Even if they don't want to give their data to a corporation, they'll be forced to. Formally, this change affects only certified devices, but in practice - no one is going to build apps just for custom ROMs. This is a system-wide shift. A forced one ⚠️
And it's just one sign of a bigger issue.
For months, " title="
"/> hasn't published the
Android 16 drivers for Pixel devices - something that used to be standard. No official reason. No communication. Just closed doors 🚪 This is a clear limitation of access and a lack of transparency for users and developers alike. Actions like this damage the trust that used to be the foundation
@GrapheneOS - a project built around 🔐 privacy, 🛡️ security, and 🌐 independence - has relied on Pixels as the base hardware for years. But today, they say it clearly: we don't want to be completely dependent on one company. That's why they've started working with another manufacturer, so they can support new devices in the future. Pixels will still be supported, but the future doesn't look as certain as it once did.
On top of that, Android's development process has already changed. The source code now lands in AOSP only after the official release - and not as a full repo with commits, but as a snapshot 📸 This practically eliminates the ability to track changes in real time or take part in the process.
And what about AOSP itself - what's left of open Android? I tested it myself, installing an unofficial build on a
Raspberry Pi. It works surprisingly well, but it's instantly clear how many components have been stripped out. So many features, services, and systems could be open - but
" title="
"/> simply doesn't include them. AOSP is now just a base - and without more, you can't build a real alternative.
So what's next? Is it time for " title="
"/> Linux Mobile?
I don't think so - not yet Android - despite being more and more centralized - still offers a level of 🛡️ security that Linux in its basic form can't match. But if this trend continues, if control keeps growing at the cost of openness, we'll have to seriously consider that path sooner or later.
For those interested - I'm including a few screenshots at the end from my AOSP install on It's not a fully functional environment, but it definitely gives you something to think about

As is with a ruffle without anything attached to it and no gravity pulling it down yet, it's impossible to say if it will look good in the end result or not, but it looks somewhat silly right now, so we're probably on the right track.
