I shaved. I look like 5 years younger.

Why am I only just now finding out a weasel rode a woodpecker. This should be a much bigger part of my life.

Weasel Rides Woodpecker in Viral Photo

then it just plays up the idea of "staying silent", with no actual cryptographic or anonymity requirements for "silent"....but the best is easily the very beginning:

WireGuard does away with these layering separations

not a joke?

the tunnel simply works.

you can't say this for a secure protocol

Key exchanges, connections, disconnections, reconnections, discovery, and so forth happen behind the scenes transparently and reliably, and the administrator does not need to worry about
these details.

the fuck

Grève massive en Corée, dans les usines de semi-conducteurs de Samsung. 45000 travailleuses et travailleurs ont prévenu qu’ils arrêteraient de travailler à partir du 21 mai, pour 18 jours ; ils demandent une répartition plus juste des bénéfices de l’entreprise, qui profite du boom des commandes de matériel pour construire des datacenters pour l’IA (un concurrent, SK Hynix, offre des bonus annuels bien plus élevés que ce que Samsung a consenti à la fin des négociations avec son syndicat).

Soutien aux travailleuses et travailleurs, puissent-ils avoir gain de cause à la hauteur de leurs attentes, et puisse leur action ralentir la marche forcée que l’industrie de l’IA impose au reste du monde.

@brainofdane@hachyderm.io This happened with the FT-991A here at my QTH, with a fair to midland outdoor antenna that's just a few feet off the ground. It's on the same frequency as a local repeater here (Portales, NM) and that's the only reason I happened to hear it. I thought that there was no way it would hear me on the 5 watts I usually use for local QSO's, so I cranked it all the way up to 50 watts and was able to hit it. Then I went down on power in increments and got all the way down to as low as my radio can go, which is 5. I was surprised I could still open the repeater at that low power at this distance with the somewhat compromised antenna I use. It was just too bad there seemed to be nobody around to talk to.

I just spoke on the phone with one of my clients, and they asked me an interesting question: What do I use SPAs for in 2026?

Components, yes, okay, but can you answer this question from an architectural perspective? The only use case I can think of is content that changes a lot.

Sascha Lobo: Ich will, dass deutsche Unternehmen den Tech-Faschismus prägen, nicht die vom Ausländer.

Is okay, Opa. Zivi kommt gleich.

the wireguard paper was cited by blake3 https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard.pdf but not as an example of good crypto, and it might even be backhanded? the protocol seems incredibly half-assed:

The responder maintains a secret random value that changes every two minutes

updating my secret random value on a precise schedule? likely generating my "secret" "random" value at precise intervals?

While the public key of the responder itself is not secret, it is sufficiently secret within this attack model

(literally no attack model, just buzzwords every other sentence)

Computing Curve25519 point multiplication is CPU intensive

this remarkable claim is then provided as the sole basis for a "cpu exhaustion attack"????

Bei der ZEIT diskutieren Sascha Lobo, @markus_netzpolitik und @kattascha über das Internet. Das meiste ist nicht überraschend, aber ich finde es erfrischend entlarvend, wie der Boomer-Influencer Lobo seine "Privatwirtschaft über alles, weil die meine Talks zahlen" Nummer runternudelt.

Lobo: "Ihr wollt eine Welt ohne Big Tech – aber ich will europäisches Big Tech."

Ja digga, dann bist du halt nicht Teil der Lösung.

Hello world! I'm Jess (or Jessica), and I just made an account on this instance after having been an omg.lol subscriber for four years or something already, haha. My pre-existing Mastodon account is at @jayeless@toot.cat. Since social.lol switched to the Glitch flavour of Mastodon, I'm highly tempted to move over here for my primary Fedi home, but I'm just sussing it out a little first 😅

Politicians have pushed for temporary gas tax holidays as a form of relief for drivers, but studies actually show consumers only see a portion of the savings, with oil companies and retailed keeping the rest.
