This meshes with the news that Boeing is run by accountants, not engineers, like it used to be.

I always heard this joke as “If you hold a stoat up to your ear, you can hear the sound of your own voice, screaming.”

Reeks of desperation to bring back the porn after how literally every other mainstream platform has walked away from it.

To add to this, self-hosting is also best when you minimize everything - limited service, with limited functionality, on dedicated hardware that doesn’t share access to your internal network or storage. Folks who use point-and-click apps to install a half dozen unauthenticated docker containers, all open to the internet, running on the same PC they store the only copy of their family photos and music/movie collection on… make me crazy.

Not strictly teh ciberrz, but upgrading to OpenBSD 7.5. Might rebuild a mail server this weekend.

I use it for managing the RFID keyfobs for my building. I can keep copies of each apartment’s fobs – which makes it trivially easy to disable lost fobs by using the ‘delete’ fob, followed by the lost fob (or all of the fobs for a specific resident), then re-enable new ones.

I’ve also played with the NFC toys, but the built-in capabilities are rather limited. I was able to copy a RFID hotel room key (a room which I was staying in) by cracking keys with the F0 itself, which just shows how terribly weak these things are.

I haven’t been able to use the SubGHz module to do anything particularly interesting aside from cloning a remote control for a fan and an LED light.

It’s a neat toy, and it absolutely exposes how trivially easy it is to break access control systems.

Typos… authentification -> authentication

Judge asks the hypernuclear question: “Have you tried NOT catering to Nazi’s and racists?”

Given that I’ve never heard of it (and I routinely work with security-related things like OpenSSH and TLS, certs, etc.) I’ll assume the impact of this finding is relatively low.

Just download Signal. Cross platform, verifably E2E, and verifiably no data collected by Open Whisper (as per their submission in a lawsuit). Also, one of the authors/architects of Signal occasionally trolls the companies that provide mobile spyware.

No write up? No better description? No demo? No links to software repositories?

As a little more background, the letter ‘X’ can be pronounced as “sh” in a lot of languages, turning tweets into ‘zits’ or ‘shits’. I like ‘Xitter’ as a pejorative, pronounced ‘Shitter’.

The problem is the CPU effort it takes to produce 100 Xits for your timeline, then search that list for everyone on your blocklist, remove those Xits, then possibly go back to the suggestion API to get more since there are only 40 Xits left, etc. etc. is cost prohibitive… Especially when you have millions of users with thousands of accounts on their blocklists.

Total newb question – don’t these CPUs support multiple clock speeds? You could set it high on install in preparation for compiling a bunch of software, then once you’re done, knock it down to 50% or less of the maximum to add longevity?

Maybe… Hearty Re-Starty?

Ticker Re-jigger?

Pumper Bumper?

Bought one, tinkered with it, copied some RFID tags for friends. It has potential, but needs more development and probably a new iteration of hardware – external antenna ports, better RFID support (different frequencies), wider SubGhz support (apparently it can’t receive radio below 300Mhz, where there’s a lot of cool stuff).

I heard they released an app store, which is awesome… But I’d also like to see a hardware store – there’s so many things I’d like to plug into this… RS-232 for console access to network hardware/debugging, cameras over SPI interface, etc. etc.

FYI, finding an incidentaloma and doing another scan 3 months later to see that it’s disappeared is also life saving. My mother had a lung problem, got some imaging done, they found a lump in her lung, and instead of going directly to poking it for a biopsy or surgery, they checked 4 months later, and saw that it resolved on it’s own. If it was cancer, they would have seen changes in it, and known it was something to be investigated further at the time of the second scan. Doctors need to manage expectations and refer people for therapy if they have anxiety around their health.

This needs the tag #DIWHY.
