As you can tell by my wild supposition about doxing cops, I also read and write fanfiction.

Just think how great it would be to be wearing these glasses when a bad cop does an illegal stop on you. Theoretically, you'd know the size of their socks and underwear by the time you signed the ticket. It would make it so much easier to fight it in court.

If I worked for Starlink in Brazil, I'd be on a plane visiting friends outside the country right now. I'm sure an order to arrest EVERYONE who works for Starlink is being drafted right now.

If Starlink is connected to any infrastructure inside Brazil, I suspect that's about to go dark. What the Brazilian authorities need is access to Starlink's internal admin network that controls EVERYTHING. Because Melon Husk is to stupid to pipeline infrastructure for each country. I'll bet it's all shared at some level. I doubt local IT person would risk jail for them and their families or "extended renditioning" to extract access to those networks to shut them down.

As a sysadmin who has to support said developers, all I have to say is "Duh. No I won't install your app with root privileges. And clean up all the files you write to /tmp."

Another useful idiot who has to stay clear of tall buildings with windows. For obvious reasons.

I had the same issue with an art focused Mastodon instance that the admin took down. I suppose he didn't want to continue paying for it. It was a pity as it added a lot of lovely artwork to my mastodon feed. It's also why I pay Jerry Bell to keep infosec running and the local mastodon instance.

Can't access redit through my VPN, so f-k them.

Gotta pay for Liz Chainey's reelection campaign.

Still won't give up my Cherry switch keyboard.

Since I can't get the Fairphone in the US, I got a Pixel 7a for $350. It's not as repairable as my ancient 3a, but if it lasts 7 years like the 3a, I'll have gotten my money's worth.

AND the converse is true. Beware of Cybercrooks posing as recruiters.

Actually, outside the US, the DO training is 7 years, same as a medical doctor. I chose a DO for my primary care doctor because they have papatory skills (i.e. they actually touch someone) that regular doctors refer out.
