This is literally "go fuck yourself" advice.
The recommendation in that thread is to run a private CA for your LAN. Anyone who has experience doing that outside of a managed (i.e., corporate) network will tell you how hilariously useless that advice is.
Giovedì pomeriggio, milioni di studenti di migliaia di università e scuole primarie e secondarie si sono visti bloccare l'accesso a Canvas, un software didattico onnicomprensivo che è diventato di fatto il fulcro di molti corsi. ShinyHunters, un gruppo di hacker specializzato in ransomware, ha violato i sistemi informatici della società madre di Canvas e, a quanto pare, ha rubato "miliardi" di messaggi e avuto accesso ai dati di oltre 275 milioni di persone . Il gruppo ha inoltre bloccato l'accesso a Canvas per gli studenti.

Happy bookmarking!
A new version of #Holos has been released (1.5.5).
It introduces support for "web+ap://" links (fedilinks), so profiles and posts can now be opened directly in Holos. The sync experience is also smoother with less UI freezing, and post deletion is more reliable: posts are kept locally until all remote instances confirm removal, with automatic retry on failure.
Release notes:
https://codeberg.org/tom79/Holos-App/releases/tag/1.5.5
Just released #Nicolium v0.2.1. It includes minor fixes and accessibility improvements. I improved the GIF auto-play setting so when it's toggled off (which is the default), you need to hover an image for more than 0.5 seconds to start the animation. And GIFs in link preview cards are no longer played unconditionally.
#Vernissage 1.35.0 is out! 🎉
This release brings a mix of new features, compatibility improvements, and important fixes:
- EXIF metadata support (FEP-ee3a)
- Account migration to and from #Vernissage
- OAuth redirect/state handling improvements
- Important ActivityPub security improvements
- Smaller bug fixes and polish
As always, thank you so much for your support, feedback, testing, and help with making #Vernissage better. 💛

Ethique pour un monde qui sombre
Sur le sentier de l’exil, à la frontière espagnole, Guillaume le Blanc renoue avec la question de la possibilité de l’éthique qui traverse toute l’histoire de la philosophie, tandis qu’il marche dans les ténèbres des crises politiques, écologiques, économiques et culturelles que nous traversons. Comment être au monde si le monde est en passe de ne plus être ? En convoquant les pensées de Walter Benjamin et Hannah Arendt qui ont vécu le péril de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le philosophe pose l’hypothèse d’un renoncement à toute emprise sur les autres, au plus loin de la précarité et du brutalisme contemporains: c’est la rencontre avec la fragilité – la nôtre comme celle du monde – qui peut sauver l’éthique. Se dessine alors le chemin de l’interdépendance des vies. L’espoir renaît au bord du gouffre : la catastrophe est-elle de taille à nous rendre notre humanité ?
GUILLAUME LE BLANC est philosophe, spécialiste des questions de précarité, professeur à l’université de Paris Cité et membre de l’Institut universitaire de France. Après La Solidarité des éprouvés (Prix spécial des Rencontres philosophiques de Monaco), il livre cet essai singulier, aboutissement de son travail depuis vingt ans.
Democratic Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates Don Scott said, "We respect the decision of the Supreme Court of Virginia." after they struck down the voter referendum to redraw the maps. Wondering again what the point of respecting institutions is. Are you trying to get into respect heaven? Supreme Court God blesses you for your faith.

well, as long as it was a physical battle and not one of wits or knowledge. in the latter cases, the 8 year old would totally destroy him. with a physical battle, he has a chance of falling on the 8 year old and smothering them.

Le password salvate in Edge sono leggibili (in chiaro) nella RAM, e per Microsoft non è un bug
Un ricercatore ha mostrato che Microsoft Edge carica in memoria in chiaro tutte le password salvate, non solo quella in uso. L'azienda risponde che è una scelta di design intenzionale.
Submission
Last weekend, crews of anarchists put up hundreds of anti-tech posters across the city. This was an experiment in coordinating across geography between multiple affinity groups and part of our focus on anti-tech agitation. We aspire to keep developing this coordination capacity for more combative action.So, as I'm learning this platform, what is the difference between liking a post and "favoriting" a post?

So, I am on a medium-small instance. I don't see everything that happens on the Fediverse. In particular, I don't see every conversation about https://tags.pub/ .
If you see a conversation or questions about #tagspub and you don't think the author would mind, please feel free to tag me in. I'm not awake 24/7 and even when I am awake I'm sometimes doing other things, but I'd really appreciate the chance to answer people's questions or concerns.
