Nog nooit gehoord van Amyl and the Sniffers en ik ben niet eens zo'n punkfan, maar dit is fucking lekker!
Innenminister #Dobrindt bleibt stur und setzt bei Grenzkontrollen auf Gewöhnung. Die Ausnahme ist zur Regel geworden: Kontrollen bei Autos mit „irgendwelchen komischen Figuren drin“ (Merz) https://taz.de/Verlaengerung-der-Grenzkontrollen/!6200966/
but I don't want new relationships.
I want opportunities to cultivate my existing relationships.
...fuck, this is what it's like to be @jacel , isn't it.
@WizardOfDocs I'd say welcome to the club but...
Haaaaaah.
everyone keeps saying diffie-hellman key exchange is unauthenticated. this bell labs paper (sus) even goes so far as to claim there are "no private keys" in diffie-hellman. both of these are obviously wrong
the 1976 DH paper is WILDLY negative about backdoored ciphers lmao

"(Neofeud) is all about the grungy digital sidewalk art, the exhaustively detailed ideas, the cyberpunk lore... so good in all its expressive, soul-soaked junkiness" --Neofeud reviewer https://store.steampowered.com/app/4611140/Neofeud_2/ #indiegame #indiedev #retrogame #scifi #art #artist
Quick impressions: A week of using Codex more than Claude
My impression? I wasted two seconds reading this title. I wouldn't be surprised if the author spent less than that "writing" the entire article.
@lechimp in the first picture he looks high as a kite - but that was not even post-surgery 🤣
@gedankenstuecke he looks at someone he really loves, would have been my guess☺️

The good and the bad enmeshed: I have thoroughly enjoyed escaping to the beach, but with extreme heat warnings five days in a row, we’ve been laid out like these graphically awesome Black Skimmers, and are grateful to be heading back to a cooler clime.

Should I keep my email list for my newsletter/articles, or toss it and keep my RSS feed only?

This is because of yesterday…
Newsletter SMTP provider: you’re over your limit.
Me: no way.
Provider: way.
Me: whoa. Hundreds of subscribers with fake emails bouncing away.

I spent hours building/testing my subscription form to deter bots without compromising accessibility. It has worked perfectly.
What I didn’t know is that my self-hosted Listmonk server has their built-in subscription form live by default. And the spammers found it.
😭
I immediately disabled it and cleaned up my list, but now I’m reconsidering the value of email for Mark Writes. RSS is far superior, but lots of folks don’t know what it is or how to use it.

My boy then looked up the movie online (It's on Netflix)... & informed me it was filmed in Montclair, NJ, (my home town) and the highschool I went to was actually used as the set! I hadn't recognised it, but then again most US public highschools from a certain era look similar... but how wild is that?! Oh, and as an extra bonus, Steve Buscemi was in it! 2/2
@lightweight i didn't realise you went to the same school as Steve Buscemi. Nice.

It's been a tough few years for MacStories.
An explanation of why we resumed posting on X, and what comes next:
@viticci " A substantial part of the audience interested in what we cover is still on X, and by leaving the platform, we stopped reaching those people [...]"
I'm curious if you actually tried to actively encourage people to follow you here.
On a related note, have you read about The Forkiverse?

@glitc_ I'm not an artist. But here in the fediverse we do have artists who sell their works with a good following such as @davidrevoy
Best wishes for your creative endeavours.
@amoroso @glitc_ The Fediverse is a very crowded place, full of quality people, who select what they see on their TL, double check, and are often literate on many topics. It's my favorite place to post, and interact; because I don't have the feeling to have an "audience" here, but just being surrounded with intelligent and subtle peoples. I learn and evolve a lot thanks to the feedback here, and I think a majority of my supporters are on the Fediverse. So, yes, it's a solid platform for me 👍
@oli @intransitivelie @timberwraith is this it? Search AI Grub Burrito took me to places to buy burritos
