“Why does the Israeli embassy have access to the police force and the lawyers involved in my case?”

British journalist Richard Medhurst confirms that the UK has dropped its Terrorism Act case against him, cancelling bail and filing no charges after more than a year of investigation.

Medhurst, who says he was the first journalist in Britain arrested under Section 12 for his reporting, insists the case collapsed because no crime existed.

However, UK authorities handed their files and intelligence to Austria, where he now faces a parallel case over the same journalism.

Medhurst describes the move as a political handover designed to save face, pointing to serious contradictions between the two cases and raising concerns over Israel’s pressure on legal proceedings targeting journalists for their reporting.

Performative reading?

Saw an article called the Curious Notoriety of "Performative Reading" and was curious. This quote sounds like how many people probably saw me from 1985 to today. I would read in public. It was kind of a stim, a way of regulation. Waiting in line? Read. Eating alone at a restaurant? Read. Walking next to a busy street? Read. On an exercise bike?

So a few months back I found a study that tried to do the "mirror test for consciousness" on ants. I remember not being very impressed with the journal where it was published, though I found the topic fascinating.

Anton Petrov has now mentioned this study in one of his videos, which means it's going to spread more.

So... how do the ant people feel about this?

i'm not sure that, even if you can come up with a mirror test that would work with an ant's sensorium, it would be testing conciousness.

i mean, what if ant conciousness rests more at the hive level? testing an individual ant would be unhelpful.

edit: that sounds a bit Experiment Four, but what i mean is, what if one ant is dumb but the colony working together is smarter?

I don’t know Jun from Jun & Tonic, but we have the same taste in food.

Do you have someone impossible to buy for? how about one of my crazy Aqua Creatures. They are goofy and sure to delight and confuse. No Aquarium? How about using them for soap or tooth brushes in the bathroom; a spoon caddy on the stove or pens on a desk; they are amphibious and will be fine out of water.

Im pretty sure.

China funnelled $80 billion into overseas cleantech in past year, report says
Research from the Net Zero Industrial Policy Lab at Johns Hopkins University found that 75% of China's low-carbon foreign direct investment is in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.

Southeast Asia remained the top destination for Chinese cleantech manufacturing investments, the CEF report found

The Middle East and North Africa were the fastest-growing investment destinations, driven by national strategies for diversifying away from oil.

Dwelling in the scarcity of poverty, a can of tuna and some macaroni much more a summer lunch than a winters dinner, a bite to eat to say the least, the darker nights fill with colder air, a hearty soup or stew would do, but you see for someone like me, vegetables and meat fruits and cheese, simply are out of reach, years of lack no time left to pick up the slack, no farm nor ranch would feed me right, for as my years have long since past, the damage done is so very wrong, yet in this world of hunger and despair, nourishment is a fantasy, for healthy food priced like gold, while garbage and glue have to do, a life stuck on barrowed time should have never been neglected for so long;

Perché sul mio PC di casa gira Arch (sì, uso Arch btw)

Versione Director’s Cut – non adatta a chi dice “basta che funzioni” Partiamo da una verità ancora più scomoda della precedente: chi installa Arch sul PC di casa non sta cercando stabilità. Sta cercando qualcosa da sentire. Un brivido. Un errore.

Quasi Gesù

Ma boh io ho Arch dal 2018 sul fisso, sul notebook mio e quello di mammà, aggiorno tutti una volta alla settimana e non ho mai avuto un problema serio, solo 3 o 4 problemuzzi risolti facilmente, e con il vantaggio di non dover mai fare release upgrade e di avere sempre il software aggiornato direttamente nei repo senza dover usare snap o simili. Vero, l'installazione è un po' più sbatti e c'è un pochino di più da imparare per manutenerla bene, ma è anche tutta roba che ti può tornare utile in generale.

Germany's in the crosshairs of Russian operations – and Moscow shows no hesitation to kill

cross-posted from: mander.xyz/post/43244142

A new joint assessment by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) and the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) aims to dispel any remaining scepticism among those who still fail to recognise the threat from Russia.

The document [is] not yet public ... The weekly newspaper Spiegel obtained a draft and outlined its main findings [links to article in German]. The 30‑page analysis details cases of disinformation, espionage, sabotage, subversion and political influence operations in Germany.

The study covers the period from July 2024 to June 2025, also examining the consequences of earlier incidents. In just the first six months of 2025, 143 suspected acts of sabotage were recorded – an upward trend.

...

“The central conclusion: Germany is at the heart of hybrid threats. They emanate not only from Russia, but above all from Russia,” Spiegel writes. The aim of hybrid operations is to foster a sense of insecurity and destabilise the state. The analysis suggests that various incidents that have shaken Germany form a chain of hybrid attacks either orchestrated or exploited by Russia.

A recent public hearing with all three German intelligence agencies likewise concluded that Russia is the primary actor behind sabotage and subversive activity in the country.

...

Another key finding: in planning acts of sabotage, Russia shows no hesitation in taking lives. One example concerns an attack in the logistics sector with links to Lithuania.

In July 2024, incendiary devices were sent by DHL aircraft from Lithuania to the UK and Germany. A major disaster was narrowly avoided: the parcels did not make it onto the intended aircraft because it was delayed. The devices ignited in DHL’s Leipzig warehouse instead.

Investigators believe so‑called single‑use agents – individuals recruited via channels such as Telegram and given limited information – were used in Lithuania and other countries to carry out such operations.

Low‑level agents, often drawn from the criminal underworld, are suspected in other cases too – including a 2024 attempt to cast a shadow over then Vice‑Chancellor Robert Habeck and his Green Party. Hundreds of exhaust pipes were clogged with expanding foam, and cars were plastered with stickers featuring Mr Habeck’s image. These actions are seen as an attempt to influence the Bundestag election campaign.

...

The report also identifies tools of political influence, such as the pro‑Russian platform Voice of Europe, through which pro‑Kremlin members of the European Parliament were allegedly financed. AfD MEP Petr Bystron is among those investigated over suspected payments from the portal.

Security agencies also point to the instrumentalisation of violent attacks on German society for propaganda purposes. After the fatal attack at Magdeburg’s Christmas market last December, Russian channels used the incident to discredit the German government and praise the AfD as a “positive alternative”, fuelling social tension and seeking to shift Germany’s political course.

...

Germany's in the crosshairs of Russian operations – and Moscow shows no hesitation to kill

Germany has spent recent days showcasing its new defence capabilities – unveiling a system capable of intercepting ballistic missiles and preparing to open a centre dedicated to countering drone threats.
