Bulletins and International News Discussion from June 8th to June 14th, 2026 - Iran Militarily Responds, As Promised, To Zionist Strikes On Beirut / Ansarallah Joins In

Has a foreign affairs document of this importance ever been signed electronically? NYT - The signing of the Iran agreement — if it happens — is likely to be done electronically rather than in person. We don’t yet have insight into the reasoning behind that anticipated arrangement. Typically, a diplomatic agreement like this would be signed at an in-person ceremony between the parties. Trump is expected to remain in Washington on Sunday, which is his 80th birthday, to attend the UFC fight at the White House. The US side is going to be sketchy as fuck.

‘You Will Not Speak on Flock Tonight’: County Commissioner Refuses to Let Residents Opposing Flock Speak at Meeting

Oh yes we will!

… everyone then walks out to the parking lot and presents their case in front of the Flock camera…. Seriously though, seems like a good solution is to make a bunch of hangers with placards in them and place them over the cameras. It’s not defacing anything, and could be considered right of speech when other avenues of communication are illegally removed.

Venus and Jupiter: Conjunction from Avebury

To see Venus and Jupiter together this month, you won’t need binoculars or even a telescope. Just look up after sunset and you’ll find them emerging as the sky grows dark near the western horizon. In fact, on June 9 the two brightest planets were in close conjunction, separated on the sky by less than 2 degrees from our perspective. Since (brighter) inner planet Venus orbits the Sun faster than outer planet Jupiter, it catches up with and passes the outer planet along the ecliptic roughly every 13 months. But every three years or so their resulting conjunction can be viewed far enough from the Sun to be easily seen in Earth’s twilight skies. On June 9, the two celestial beacon’s close “cosmic kiss” was captured here next to the two large standing stones at the cove within a 4,000 year old stone circle at Avebury, UK. Larger than Stonehenge, the Avebury henge and stone circle complex is also recognized as one of the most significant neolithic ceremonial sites on planet Earth. Source>

Lawfare in the Digital Age: How Cyber-Libel Strips Away Our Rights\*

Modernizing our legal framework requires recognizing that in a digital age, the protection of free expression is the primary safeguard against the consolidation of power. By Ralph Louisse G. Fernandez In the Philippines, the public square has moved from the physical plaza to the digital timeline. But while the 1987 Constitution guarantees that “no law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press,” the reality for many Filipinos — journalists, activists, and ordinary citizens; is an encroaching shadow of litigation. The weapon of choice is the Republic Act No. 10175, specifically its provisions on cyber-libel. The fundamental issue lies in the disparity between the protection of reputation and the protection of free speech. Under Article 353 of the Revised Penal Code, libel is defined as a public and malicious imputation of a crime, vice, or defect. However, Section 4©(4) of Republic Act No. 10175 effectively increased the penalty for libel committed through a computer system by one degree. This “one-degree” hike is not just a technicality; it is an escalation of state power. By elevating the penalty to prisión mayor in its minimum period, the law effectively triples the potential prison sentence compared to traditional print libel. For years, this led to significant legal incoherence regarding the statute of limitations. Because the penalty became “afflictive,” it was argued that the window to file a case jumped from one year to fifteen years. While the Supreme Court clarified in the 2023 case of Causing v. People that the prescriptive period for cyber-libel remains one year, the existence of a harsher prison sentence for the same act simply because it was performed online remains a disproportionate use of the law. This imbalance targets the most accessible medium for public discourse, making the digital space a minefield for those who dare to criticize. Through the lenses of a human rights advocate requires looking at the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), to which the Philippines is a state party. Article 19 of the ICCPR explicitly protects the right to hold opinions and the freedom to impart information through any media. In 2011, the United Nations Human Rights Committee (UNHRC) issued its landmark view in Adonis v. Philippines, stating that the criminalization of libel in the country was “incompatible” with Article 19. The Committee emphasized that imprisonment is an inherently disproportionate penalty for defamation. International human rights standards dictate that libel should be a civil matter; a dispute over reputation between private parties rather than a criminal offense where the state exercises its power to deprive a person of liberty. When the state uses criminal law to silence speech, it violates the principle of Proportionality. A person’s reputation is a protected interest, but it cannot supersede the fundamental right to physical liberty. By failing to distinguish between malicious defamation and protected criticism, the current legal framework functions as a mechanism of suppression rather than a search for justice. The impact of these laws is not felt equally across society. While political and economic elites possess the resources to initiate litigation as a form of “lawfare,” community journalists, activists, and ordinary citizens are often silenced by the mere threat of a complaint. We see this weaponization in the frequent filing of cyber-libel cases against those who report on local corruption, environmental issues, or human rights abuses in the provinces. When a journalist is arrested on a Friday, making bail impossible until the following week, the law is being used as a tool of state-sanctioned harassment. Furthermore, the broad judicial interpretation of “malice” often fails to account for the public interest. When a citizen posts about the lack of medical supplies in a provincial hospital or the delay in social services, they are engaging in a necessary democratic exercise. If they fear that a technical error in their post could lead to years in prison, they will choose silence. A society that cannot hold its institutions to account is a society that cannot reform. As law students, we are often taught to prioritize the letter of the law over its social impact. However, this workshop underscores that law does not exist in a vacuum. It is a tool that must serve the collective good. Training in human rights journalism requires us to look past the statutory elements of a crime to the real-world impact on civil liberties. We must connect the dots between a Supreme Court ruling on speech and the ability of a community leader in a remote municipality to demand accountability without being sued into silence. The Philippines must move toward the decriminalization of libel. Modernizing our legal framework requires recognizing that in a digital age, the protection of free expression is the primary safeguard against the consolidation of power. We must advocate for a system where reputation is addressed through civil remedies that do not necessitate the deprivation of liberty. Law students are not merely future litigators; we are stakeholders in the democratic process. By embracing human rights journalism and accessible legal analysis, we ensure that the law acts as a shield for the marginalized rather than a weapon for the powerful. The digital square must remain a place of robust, uninhibited debate; not a place of fear. *The article is an output from a training conducted by Bulatlat among the law students of the Far Eastern University Institute of Law under the class of Professor Josiah David Quising.

Iran Reveals Intel. Op. Tracing US Military Aircraft to Diego Garcia

Iranian sources claim a sophisticated intelligence operation tracked US P-8 aircraft and F-35 jets across multiple bases in the Gulf and Jordan. Iran has executed a sophisticated intelligence and operational plan in the strikes launched against several US military bases in the region early Thursday morning, Fars reported, citing a senior Iranian military source. The source, speaking to Fars News Agency, stated that the strikes inflicted significant losses on expensive equipment belonging to US forces in the region. In a detailed account of the operation, the source reported that Iranian forces tracked the flight path and positioning of two large US P-8 aircraft from the moment they took off. One of the aircraft was reportedly arriving from the Diego Garcia airbase in the central Indian Ocean, while the other was flying from a US base in Western Europe, heading toward the southern Gulf. According to the source, the precise locations of these two aircraft, at the Shaikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain and the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, were subsequently struck by Iranian precision weapons. Furthermore, Iran monitored the positioning of at least three US F-35 fighter jets inside a hangar at the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan. The source asserted that the surveillance continued until the final moments before missile launches, at which point the exact location of the hangar was targeted with long-range, solid-fuel missiles. Iran retaliates to US aggression, hits US basesEarlier on Thursday, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced it launched retaliatory strikes against US military positions in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain, in a “punitive action against the aggressor” operation in response to renewed US aggression against Tehran. According to Tasnim News Agency, the IRGC fired 12 ballistic missiles at Jordan’s Al-Azraq Air Base and its control center, destroying what it claimed were “these facilities and a large number of fighter aircraft,” including US F-35, F-15, and F-16 jets reportedly stationed at the base. In a separate statement cited by IRNA, the IRGC said it carried out two waves of operations, striking “18 important targets belonging to the US Army” at bases in Kuwait and Bahrain. The Guard specifically identified Kuwait’s Ali Al Salem and Ahmad Al-Jaber air bases and Bahrain’s Sheikh Isa Air Base. Earlier, Iranian media reports had also indicated that the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain came under attack. Strait of Hormuz shut downIn further retaliatory actions, the IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters issued a statement declaring the immediate closure of the Strait of Hormuz. “From this moment, due to insecurity in the region, the Strait of Hormuz is declared closed to the passage of any type of vessel, including oil tankers and commercial ships, and any passage will be struck,” the statement said. The announcement cited “the continued mischief of criminal America” and “the beginning of attacks by that country’s aggressive army on some areas in the south of Hormozgan province.” The IRGC also denied US claims that ships were still passing through the strait, stating, “The US claim of a ship crossing the said strait is denied.” US launches aggression on IranEarlier on June 11, Iranian air defenses were activated in several areas early Wednesday after reports emerged of explosions in southern Iran and neighboring Iraq, according to Iranian state media. Air defense systems were triggered west of the capital, Tehran, while explosions were heard in the cities of Sirik and Minab, both located in the Hormozgan province. Iranian state television later reported that air defenses had also been activated in Asaluyeh, a major energy hub in southern Iran. The broadcaster added that five hostile projectiles had targeted a location in Minab. Further explosions were reported in Bandar Abbas, including in the vicinity of the city’s airport and an Air Force base, according to the official IRNA news agency. The activation of air defense systems came shortly after Iranian authorities announced heightened readiness in western Tehran and several southern regions, including strategic energy sites, as regional military tensions continue to rise. Meanwhile, Tasnim News Agency denied earlier claims of explosions on Qeshm Island and other nearby islands. The agency suggested that some of the reported sounds were linked to broader clashes in the Gulf rather than direct strikes on the islands themselves.

Anthropic disables top-tier AI models after US order limiting foreign access

Yeah, I went on holidays to the US and got the 128 bit plugin for what was probably Netscape (the precursor to Firefox) and it was very clear during the download process that it wasn’t to be taken outside the US. It was considered a weapon if memory serves me. Anyway not long after the rest of the world caught up and it looked silly in hindsight so here we are. Edit: just to add some context on the “weapon” thing… The other standard was either 56 or 64 bit and it was secure enough at the time given compute capabilities but it was also clear that it would be crackable in time whereas 128 bit has a very long shelf life even with modern capabilities, as long as the algorithm was good (and it was / is)

The Soviets won the Space Race the moment they put Sputnik in the orbit of the Earth...

Because it finally forced the rest of the world, especially the United States, to pour resources into space research that the Capitalists, who solely function on a profite incentive and not the common good of humanity, would have never done it by themselves. The Communists achieved their primary objective. To venture onto the space exploration.

I don't like "networking" and it sucks because networking runs everything

as someone prone to introversion, i love not going to social functions. basically, my professional success is due to the fact that i found something to be obsessive/fanatical about. “do you want to meet up for drinks?” “no, i’ve got my sweatpants on and it’s getting dark.” “there’s a guest lecture in the gross auditorium with that dork who wrote that one article.” “i’ll be there in 20 minutes.” i always want to talk about or hear about a certain topic and its related fields, and i will talk about it with anyone for as long as they want. that means i never turn off and continue reading/communicating/marinating on this shit. it drove my friends-from-before absolutely bonkers. they did not care and would get annoyed when i spent a whole gathering talking to the one other person who showed that was interested. this discovery didn’t happen until my late 20s and at that point i was a college drop out, so after some idealistic self-exploitation for a few years in the field learning hands on, i went back to school for it and it was completely different than my first time. i didn’t care about going to social events unless they were with people in the same orbit of the discipline or potentially had a lens of critical thinking about it. dork confabs, student organizations, symposia, sign me up. i would spend all day on campus going to shit and slithering into conferences. i met other people like me with the same problem and they became my people. the thing is, there’s a functionality to it: nobody can know everything despite their best effort. being able to connect with a lot of people means you have a wide pool of people to ask when you want to bounce an idea around or just get a gut check from someone you trust. the people i met who are similarly afflicted love a rando question out of the blue after months of silence, even though we now live hundreds of miles apart and they have kids and are dealing with a divorce or whatever. the only effort it takes to maintain these relationships is that they know when they reach out with their own left-field b.s., i will be super into it. i won’t gatekeep, i’ll be honest about gaps in knowledge and when i’m speculating. there was a moment when it seemed like “the internet” could replace this, and it is still the first stop for any of us. but we’re seeing how rapidly it is becoming filled with slop, hallucinations, and just plain unreliable bullshitting. the academic papers are often paywalled and are too deep/specific to certain conditions so we still need each other to cut through the noise and point out the footholds and dead ends. when i went back for my undergrad and later for grad school, i understood plainly that as critical as the knowledge i could gain would be and as excited as i was to receive it, that wasn’t what i was there for. anyone with an internet connection and time could become highly knowledgeable about almost anything. i was there for the social capital of the credential and the affiliation/community of my cohort and the connections facilitated by my institutional affiliation. school is as much about being inducted into the shared language as it is about the knowledge of the discipline. anyway, all this to say, i think the only way networking becomes less of a chore is if you look for and pursue knowledge of the things that ignited your interest. in that way, networking becomes an additional source of knowledge. the academy itself is a total shitshow and its super easy to get through it without building a professional network, but the infrastructure is there to build something potentially massive and far reaching. the other thing is, network building is cumulative. at first you know nobody or only have a few weak connections and it sucks, but as you find others and become known as a generally agreeable but passionate person, those connections build on each other and interweave until it takes less and less effort to keep it growing. so if you end up going into the academy again, surrender to your innermost nerd. also, if there are international students in your field to meet, they can be awesome to connect with. they are always at the conferences. many have so deeply embraced their academic interest, they’ve come across the world to a weird-ass culture. that is a hardcore nerd move. likely the research discipline and jargon will be the only thing you have in common. the ones i met had these incredible experiences and very novel (to me) interests/perspective in the field, yet they were mostly isolated from the campus community, sadly. if you make a cool friend, that has the potential to open your professional development network to a completely different geographic context. major game changer.

Persistance of posts and account data post-deletion

Hello fediferse, I was wondering, if I ever want to delete a post or an account on a service that uses ActivityPub, like Mastodon or Pixelfed, is it going to persist across the fediverse? Let’s say I made a political post on Mastodon using a profile with my real name and picture and I need to travel to the U.S. for work purposes and I don’t want the CBP to find out about it and get turned back or arrested on entry. If I delete this post, will it be completely removed across all instances that synchronized it? Is a deleted post traceable in any way? Is it kept in a log or a database on ferdiverse instances? With governments across the globe increasingly surveiling us online and scrutinizing everything we say, I’m starting to think I should plainly delete any account that has personally identifiable information like my real name and photo. I initially thought it would be easier to connect with family and friends, but now I’m growing increasingly worried about how this can be used against me. I just want to know if I can completely erase any post or any account from the fediverse or if there will always be a trace somewhere and it could get picked up by any government surveilance. Whether encrypted or not.

Does anyone use QubesOS as a daily driver?

I’ve been daily driving Qubes OS for last 6 years. You don’t need to be an Linux expert but you should know basic things. And few common commands and maybe simple bash scripting if you want some level of customization Main thing is divide your personas,and create a Qubes for each of them. and if you just want to search for some random shit use disposable VMs My setup is something like this I’ve 3 debian and 3 fedora templates 1 minimal used for sys VMs and vault, 2 normal template here I only install packages only available in official debian/fedora, repos 3 in this template I add custom repos which are still trustworthy Then depending on what I need in which app on I assign the template. I’m forced to use zoom and other very intrusive apps for them I’ve just setup the rc.local script (this runs with start of any Qube) to install them Also even though Qubes provides isolation at Qube level I still use firejail inside all the VMs it just takes few minutes to setup and gives a peace of mind Also Hassel depends on what you use it for. Few pain points for me are Nested virtualization isn’t possible* there are some workarounds and in most cases it’s okay. The only problem is for Android app development. In that case the best solution is to just use adb and connect your own device PCI passthrough it was really terrible few years ago but now it works in most cases but for me sometimes my Laptop overheats. I don’t need it much often so i haven’t spent time to fix it.
