So apparently one of my servers with Ubuntu installed got the Gnome desktop environment on it somehow??? It at least hadn't been enabled for months and suddenly enabled itself when I restarted it earlier today.

I couldn't figure out why its CPU usage was suddenly way higher (like 40+% on every core) and why my ssh sessions kept getting frozen (it was going to sleep after the default amount of time because no one logged into the desktop environment).

Absolutely *no clue* why this happened, but luckily it's easy to disable again.

Should your car warn you that you’re speeding? California lawmakers vote yes


California could become the first state to require technology in cars that warns drivers when they're going 10 miles per hour over the speed limit. But critics say lawmakers are moving too fast.

A video depicting Albania's chief rabbi, Yoel Kaplan, celebrating the destruction in Gaza and leading Israeli troops in prayer has prompted an angry backlash in the country.

The video featuring Kaplan in Gaza was posted by a Jewish community website on Monday, but it is not exactly clear when it was taken.

Kaplan was appointed chief rabbi by the Albanian government in 2010, against the wishes of the countrys Jewish community.

The mocking and shaming responses to Tim Walz’s son’s emotions at the DNC shows that society has a long way to go in understanding neurodivergent behaviors.

Research suggests that 15% to 20% of the U.S. population is neurodivergent, and this is likely an undercount. That’s 1 in 5 people.

Here’s a quick explainer on neurodivergence (you don’t have to be a doctor to understand it):

@Amoshias A fair point. But I think the fact that it was unexpected behavior by a neurodivergent person fueled much of the mockery, FWIW.
in reply to The Conversation U.S.

@Amoshias It's the psychos who mock him who are more neurodivergent, if anything. Having the idea that someone showing feelings for something like this is to be mocked...

US rich pay soooo little tax especially compared to literally everywhere else that isn't a tiny corrupt island. it's just insane.

The New York Times is losing so much credibility with their coverage of Trump and Gaza. I cancelled my subscription long ago and I hope more people do, there are many other independent sources of news which are not as tarnished and compromised.

thanks for the pointer, and looking forward to see what comes out of the OpenMLS rust developments. We presume however it's not yet easy to use it in decentralized settings where group-membership is not strictly ordered. Or did that restriction change?
