Important safety tip: if you ever come across a pool of your own blood, whatever you do, do not lie down in it. A lot of people are found murdered that way.

To me, hatred and anger are not exactly the same thing, but I get your point.

Yeah they're different, I just thought it might be relavent.

In particular people who are controlled through their anger tend to die of a brain hemmorage a lot more.

Ok, here's the deal on the "YubiKey cloning attack" stuff:

:eyes_opposite: yes, a way to recover private keys from #YubiKey 5 has been found by researchers.

But the attack *requires*:

👉 *physically opening the YubiKey enclosure*

👉 *physical access* to the YubiKey *while it is authenticating*

👉 non-trivial electronics lab equipment

I cannot stress this enough:

❗In basically every possible scenario you are safer using a YubiKey or a similar device, than not using one.

I say this regularly, but here I go again…#libraries are a lifeline to parents of young kids, the elderly and those on low incomes. They are a place where you can exist and learn for free.

#Tories think no one dies when a library closes…but their absence hits right to the heart of communities.

And yes #Labour run councils have shut libraries too…due to austerity.

Last winter when our town was hit with a major power failure two days before Christmas, and it took more than 24 hours to get power back to some houses, there were exactly two places open with heat where people could go for free:
the public library, and a church that allegedly had a heat-shelter open in the back, but no one answered the phone there when I called to verify.

It's not our main purpose, but libraries are an important fallback for a lot of things.

@Kathmandu

In the UK during the energy and cost of living crisis libraries have been dedicated ‘Warm Spaces’ where people can stay warm during the day because they can’t afford to heat their homes. It’s this or riding the buses all day with their bus passes for pensioners in winter. Despite now having a Labour government there is no sign of improvement on this front with the energy price cap set to rise by 10% in October.

One of the recently replaced Glasgow Subway trains in the Riverside Museum. Is there a name for the slightly uneasy feeling you get when you realise a once familiar everyday object is now only to be found in museum collections?

Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11 users will not be able to uninstall the controversial “Recall” feature, despite earlier reports suggesting otherwise. Recall, part of the Copilot+ suite announced in May, automatically captures screenshots of user activity on the operating system including sensitive information such as passwords or financial data https://digitalmarketreports.com/news/25091/microsoft-recall-feature-on-windows-11-not-removable-after-all/ Do yourself a favor and get rid of Windows from your life—enough of these greedy companies. #privacy #security

Ah.. I got distracted.

What if I drew Konqi in a similar style as Theo? Or both of them? Theo wouldn't understand anything since he lives in the wild but he would politely listen.

I been using KDE in the past year and been pretty happy with it.

Anthropy mastodon (AP)

tempted to actually publish and start using this because I've seen a fair share of opensource abuse out there.

Just because I opensource my code, doesn't mean I want random crackheads on chatgpt submitting """""""code"""""""" with absolute zero knowledge of what's actually happening, just because they want to write 'opensource contributions' on their resume. Not to mention actual abuse and random people trying to redo a project because they have some vision on it (then GO AND BUILD YOUR OWN)

Years ago, I created a bot that posted Sun Tzu quotes, if Sun Tzu had written about cyber war. When X closed up API access that bot broke, and it never was high on my list of priorities to bring here. Well, I just fixed that. May I introduce you to @SunTzuCyber, which posts every 6 hours. The posts are set up as unlisted/quiet public, so they won't show up in timelines unless you follow it.

Learn how to manage memory manually, or how to write assembly. Write a compiler, or a web browser.

Learn how to repair your hardware when it breaks, and how to fix your software when the authors don't care to.

Teach yourself how to write, or draw, or sing, or whatever it is that you wish you knew.

You don't have to do any of this, of course - but if you're not going to, it should be because you don't want to, not because you've been lied to.

The hardest step is to admit that you are capable.

wait, so with insurance you pay the company with the expectation that in case something bad happens they cover costs for you and provide some help... but they are allowed to arbitrarily decide whether or not to actually provide anything at each situation, and at any moment cancel your service if they think there is a chance something bad will happen to you (which is the whole point of their service)?

this sounds like a scam

One thing I managed to do today: replaced the cat-flap panel in the house's side door with the original glass panel the previous owners had left in the garage in case we wanted to do just that. (I don't have a taller "before" photo, just take my word it's the same door and the top panel wasn't changed!)

Arty and Tuemescine have been visiting this arcade for a long now, playing games and winning prizes. They’ve spent countless quarters trying to win plushies on the claw machine. Today, however, is different. Arty has been planning this moment for weeks, carefully selecting the bear and customizing its t-shirt to ask the most important question of his life. With a racing heart and a playful grin, he pushed Tuemescine to catch that specific teddy bear.

Little did Tuemescine know that this wasn’t just about winning a plushie, it was about winning a lifelong partner.

Picture for Arty and Tuemescine, the question was asked during Megaplex. He said yes!
They even recorded a video of that moment, when even the picture as a canvas print was given: https://x.com/Tuemescine/status/183.....38357100892227

As a teenager in Neustrelitz (East Germany), I painted small stones purple and left them all over town. Did it for years. It drove the police and Stasi nuts. It meant nothing. It just felt good to do something they couldn't control or understand.

I think you have discovered the perfect police state detector. If you think you are free, practice freedom in a harmless way that has not been vetted and approved by the local authority. Watch for allergic reaction. Well done!

Third iteration of the thing-so-I-don't-injure-myself-holding-just-the-blade thing. Here I've reverted to a simpler shape, and it's helping me figure out where my fingers naturally want to go.

I was thinking about incorporating some sort of sliding mechanism to cover the blade for safety, but I might just print something that this whole tool neatly sits into to tuck the blade away for storage. #3DPrinting
