A nice new #Linux kernel exploit aka CopyFail CVE-2026-31431

#infosec

A bit of an interruption in operations of my Akkoma instance caused by overloaded PostgreSQL. Needed to do some fine-tuning, vacuum & analyze and reduce Akkoma query timeouts. Now catching up with the traffic…

28 April 2014 was the last pro-Ukrainian march in #Donetsk, defying the popular Russian narrative that “Donbas overwhelmingly dreamed of Russian occupation”.

It was the last, because out of nowhere, in the presence of riot police, group of masked men wearing Russian military and police camouflage appeared and stated beating the hell out of the participants of the march, including many women and children.

For context, at that time Slovyansk was already controlled by the Girkin commandos who conducted extrajudicial executions on civilians suspected of having pro-Ukrainian views.

Manipulation of this “infographic” beats all records - described as “percentage of Jewish population murdered by country during #Holoacaus” but:

There was no such countries as #Poland and #Czechoslovakia (100% occupied by #Germany and #USSR since 1939) or #Ukraine (did not exist as separate entity before and after WW2) etc
Ukraine was 100% part of #USSR yet there’s separate entries (!) for both #Ukraine and Soviet Union
Nazi #Germany (!) humbly ranks in the middle with 69% whereas it was 100% responsible for Holocaust in all other countries
Including #France which ranks at 25% even though its collaboration Vichy government actively cooperated with deportation of Jewish population to death camps, as did #Hungary

The purpose of this weird - in all aspects - chart is unclear, except for smear campaign against the Central-Eastern European countries that hosted the most Jews on the eve of WW2 simply because before that they were kicked out from Western Europe, while whitewashing others, such as Germany, France and Soviet Union 🤷

#Poland and #Belarus agreed on exchange of 5 prisoners from each side. Warning: the source is Belta, Belarus state run news agency.
