Linux: powerful, but not practical for everyday work

Terrence O’Brien revisits Linux on a 2019 Dell XPS 15, finding that while Linux has improved for gaming, photo editing, and music software, it remains a fiddly, fragmented ecosystem with EFI issues, driver quirks, and a heavy reliance on terminal tweaks; even when things work, Steam, MIDI controllers, and DAWs can be finicky, leading him to conclude Linux is powerful but still more of a hobby than a ready-to-work OS—he ultimately needs an OS that “just works” for his workflow.

"Israeli Report Exposes Systematic Sexual Violence by Hamas"

A report by the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel alleges that Hamas gunmen "systematically and intentionally" committed sexual crimes during the 7 October attacks, including violent rapes conducted collectively or in front of an audience. The report describes identical patterns of sexual violence at multiple locations, with evidence of rape, sexual violence, and mutilation of women. Israeli officials have submitted these findings to the UN Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict, while independent UN experts have expressed concern about reports of violence by Israeli forces against Palestinian women and girls in Gaza and the occupied West Bank.
