I'm feeling pretty good about myself, since learning I can beat the federal government at opsec.

When I "quote" a "post" do other people see it?

@siochanta
I still find it pretty entertaining, not gonna lie. But I totally get why others might find themselves just rolling their eyes at flashy magic systems in these kinds of novels, lol!

I've mostly stopped reading fantasy novels with witches, because (as a real witch) I often think about fantasy magic, "Well, that's not how real witchcraft/magic works ..."
Yes, fantasy witchcraft can be highly entertaining. But it's also (mostly) over the top unrealistic and exaggerated. 😅

@ai6yr again?

NEW: Security researchers found residential proxies running on the White House network, exposing other devices in the president's inner circle to cyberattacks.

The security company that detected the activity said "anyone buying proxy access could use it to reach internal systems."

Oh no! Now where can I find such threads as…

“I’m having this issue”

“Easy fix: don’t have that issue”

Palantir w polskiej armii?
Władze muszą mieć pewność, że firma nie będzie mogła poza kontrolą MON-u korzystać z danych osobowych innych informacji o polskim wojsku. Oczekujemy, że decyzja o wyborze firmy dostarczającej rozwiązania technologiczne dla polskiej armii będzie uwzględniała konieczność zachowania suwerenności cyfrowej i bezpieczeństwo danych.

@disorderlyf I enjoy telling bigots who use woke as an insult that some of us volunteer to get infected multiple times with woke viruses at libraries.

It’s usually just confusion at the idea that things live on other websites. The most common mental model people seem to have for decentralized systems is… centralization. Just, centralized somewhere else.

I remember when the Twitter users flooded Mastodon. Everyone seemed to have this sense that “Mastodon” was a place “over there”, and that the website they were using – if they even recognized that they were using a website, thanks to the appification of everything – was just a dumb terminal. Like, instead of using Twitter, they were using a secondary website that itself ws using Twitter. So, people got really confused about why content was missing, why they couldn’t see the post history of some users, etc. They felt like they were being arbitrarily blocked from seeing parts of “Mastodon”, rather than understanding that they’d just signed up for the equivalent of a magazine subscription and would not be getting the back catalogue for free.

I’ve tried to explain it as being able to request content from Facebook, Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, and Bluesky from an account on MySpace. Only there’s 500 Facebooks, 2000 Reddits, 10,000 Twitters, 300 Instagrams, and 1500 Blueskies. And also, 1000 other MySpaces. You can request content from those other websites, but because you are not viewing those websites, just requesting that they send some of their content to you you only get the small parts that you specifically asked for. Otherwise, your MySpace would get overwhelmed and burn down around you.

I’m still workshopping this, though. It has not been as effective as I hoped for.

It is though.

How do you pronounce an asterisk? We're saying "Shh" for longer. Like "Shhhole."

This vulnerability impacts unpatched musl builds of OpenSSH, including Alpine Linux. But there are a lot of required conditions for exploitation.

@hacks4pancakes Hei hei from Finland!

@san Это пока не реализовано, но мы планируем это сделать, не переживай. Проблемы с протоколами шифрования не возникнут, основной вопрос – это структура сообщений и пользовательский интерфейс для добавления/удаления вложений.

@chartier Nope. Worked after a reboot.
