The GrapheneOS project has announced on X that they are ceasing all operations in France, asserting that the country is no longer safe for "open source privacy projects".

Citing the government's support of the European Union Chat Control proposal, GrapheneOS developers are also refusing travel to France.

First time Trying out my Aerospace Fighters with my #clanjadefalcon Gamma Galaxy forces against the #FreeWorldsLeague's Tamarind Regulars. It didn't go well.



We each had a +1 BI initiative bonus, RCN for the Falcons, MHQ4 for the FWL.



The fighters were shot down on turn 1 but took out the Battlemaster with the master computer for the enemy C3 network. So we each only get that first turn to play with our respective gimmicks and the FWL loose their initiative bonus. Not that it mattered as the Falcons won initiative by a wide margin each turn, then rolled really badly to hit.



The remaining two turns were me trying to pick off elements of the FWL heavy tank column without letting it focus fire on me and trying to land some NARC beacons to boost damage for my missile heavy force. The dice just were not in my favour tonight though.

I'm quickly finding a mix of packages which were compromised, some were months ago and had the bad versions taken down.

However at the same time I'm noticing packages like the one below that were -just- hacked 19 hours ago and still have not been taken down yet!

With how this worm works its a bit of a pencils down moment... you probably should check your packages right now.

Signal's "Safety Number" is an important feature that generates a pop-up which allows you to "mark as verified" a man-in-the-middle attacker. This way the attacker is verified and we can all feel better about the whole messy business.

My "Not Enron" memo is raising a lot of questions already answered by my memo

Yeah, the whole poetry-as-"prompt injection" paper sure smelled like propaganda. Turned out it is.

@grimalkina you know how there was a list github took down a few years ago of every engineer who proudly declared how they worked with ICE? were i hiring someone and found out they're on that list, i would reject them

i want that, but at scale. or rather, i'm aware that this is already happening (for entirely commercial reasons such as "wage suppression"), i'm interested in expanding it to non-commercial reasons such as "making being a fascist collaborator bad for employment"

Laat ons alleen dingen kopen die we nodig hebben en al wilden kopen.
Meer moet dat toch niet zijn?

Let‘s Encrypt has made new Root and Intermediate Certs and will start using them now in staging (test) and soon in production, submitting them to root programs (OS and browsers) for inclusion.

If you ship a „CA bundle“ somewhere, you should update that once the new roots are added.
