@cheeaun that's a good point, although I use the call that fetches multiple accounts
@fedicat oh forgot about that. I saw the fetches in browser console from mastodon web and it does individual fetches 🙈

hmmm, I'm not in her sneakers, but that message may signal an uproar from Mom.
@mastodonmigration Bruce Cockburn my favorite anti war song. Love this version. “If I Had a Rocket Launcher” https://youtu.be/nOjHior0RfU
they didn't even check my passport
@sundogplanets When we were kids, we lived in an old house near a 300-acre wood. A couple of times, we heard a crash, went to look, and it was a ruffed grouse that had flown right through a window. But that was a long time ago and I don't think there are any grouse there anymore.
@flyhigh whoa! They are big birds!

@mastodonmigration I like that one also! Bruce Cockburn, when he was on a religious visit to middle Latin America, was onsite when a helicopter gunboat swooped down and shoot a bunch of villagers he was with. He escaped and when he made it back to his room he wrote that song. The context is the Reagan undeclared wars in El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras. Think Ollie North, Fawn Hall, Iran Contra. The anti-immigrant killings, like today, were real and horrific.
Wow. What a story.
I wish a media critic with clout would ask the New York Times if it is still employing the reporter who did this -- read the "Editor's Note" attached to the end of the story; screenshot here -- and, if so, why.

@dangillmor Remember when Jayson Blair got dragged over the coals and fired for making up interviews and quotes? I think we're quickly sliding down that path with LLMs, but it will now be acceptable, or at least non-fire-able, because they are all using LLMs to write stories now.
Great song. Did not know that one.
Brought this classic to mind..

I just sent my first grant request to help fund my open source work, mainly to replace my old Mac. It crashes during builds, forcing me to kill apps and delete files to free up space, then wipe everything and reinstall emulators when switching between Android and iOS. For now I've focused on Android, but it defeats the whole point of buying a Mac. A new machine would let me work on both.
Fingers crossed! I'll keep you informed.
he's so fucking butthurt about kyber all the time. that's the one isis lovecruft specifically says is good. but he's not a lattice hater (quite the opposite), just kyber
this 30-page paper takes uhhhh quite a while to load https://kyberslash.cr.yp.to/kyberslash-20250115.pdf (yes he only provides pdf documents)
[someone who develops security vulnerabilities cannot be allowed to run code for longer than 5-10 seconds on your phone. if it makes your entire phone slower i recommend exiting the entire browser app immediately. this is what side-channel attacks can look like.]
I don’t know if anyone ever thought to develop data or a systems map for Usenet, but pre-1994 NNTP network statistics is the closest analogy I could imagine to what we have now.
But we would need a methodology to map the open social web considering each person to be their own node, and drawing out the progress of their connections to other nodes in that rolling window.
@ozoned and given the general left-libertarian freeforall attitude of “how dare you read what I post on public timelines without my personal affirmative consent to view!!!!” that ppl keep fallling into, holy crap I would not want to see the ethics review board of a university deal with that.
RE: https://mastodon.scot/@benh/116544719470523258
When I use the word “passkey”, I am *never* referring to a credential stored on a hardware security key, because the user experience of something saved, synced, and resilient to device loss is fundamentally different from the experience of using hardware security keys. (You better have more than one and never lose them!)
If your threat model means that you cannot trust a cloud provider, achieving phishing-resistant online account authentication takes a lot more effort.
@rmondello the problem with cloud providers isn’t a security threat but one of longevity and intentions of the cloud model. Business going out of business or change their buisness plans. It isn’t 2010 and we aren’t still pretending that big tech has our best interests at heart for the long term
The question is more fundamental to the survival of passkeys and I think is a huge hurdle. Even if it is for the uber geeks and not for the moms and pops.
Portability and self hosting is required.
