@msb @cR0w @elricofmelnibone this is why, despite being able to program to a reasonable level of competence, and having been able to do so since the last millennium, I do not work as programmer now. Agile, and all the associated bollocks are the complete antithesis to the engineering mindset with which I started in programming. I worked on a project with ESA, and that short project completely changed how I code, and how I approach programming.

Julián Alvarez, you poor bastard.

"there could come a time where the fediverse, or any decentralized network infrastructure, is a target as well if we don't sound the alarms now."

There will be a time, "I guarantee it" if these overlords aren't stopped, plan on it being very real. They're doing whatever they like acting like a mob with no restraints, as they have NONE.

@smaurizi i servizi digitali che non possono essere influenzati dal governo americano sono potenziali minacce alla "sicurezza nazionale".

Considerando le loro capacità di cybersecurity, le loro affermazioni suonano come un riconoscimento alla qualità dei servizi di autistici/inventati.

New by Sabot Media x We Will Free Us:

The U.S. government just put an antifascist communications collective on a terrorism blacklist.

For 25 years, Autistici/Inventati has built communications systems designed to survive censorship, surveillance, police raids and corporate interference. Now the state is attacking something harder to seize than a server: the financial and technological relationships that allow that infrastructure to exist.

Now that infrastructure itself is being treated as evidence of terrorism, and solidarity is turning into “material support.”

This isn't only an attack on A/I. It's a warning to anyone building servers, encrypted communications, independent publishing platforms and other infrastructure that makes organizing beyond state and corporate surveillance possible.

Please read and share. September 25th is approaching. Learn what is happening and don’t let the state write the only version of this story.

@thomasfuchs I feel like it's inevitable that I'll end up with a Switch 2 eventually. I love my original Switch so much. But I agree right now it doesn't feel like it needs replacement. Give it a couple years for the catalogue to build up.

yeah, Wirral libraries here in UK run an imagination library and have a life size cardboard cutout of dolly in central library in Birkenhead. it's one of Wirral's many lovely attractions, well worth a visit.

I meowed at my cat. My windows were open and someone from the street heard and meowed back 😸

@davidgerard he feels a bit guilty about Epstein, so he wants to repent by pivoting.

We need a mastodon bot that toots the ‘we’re just normal men’ clip once a day

@cR0w Paraphrasing Theo de Raadt (because I don't remember the actual quote): "how can you expect people to write a secure virtualisation layer when they can't even write a secure operating system?"

What I've been working on for fun:

I used #gleam and #lustre to re-create the cellular automata granny square generator from @mathgrrl

Another way to read this is that those VMs your org paid big money for were poorly engineered and we're now publicly seeing just how poorly.
