That's it. There's more you can do, but spend a few days with a proper web browser and a real ad blocker and you'll get it.

My fashion game is incredibly poor, but that's okay because Pinecone has whipped together a bunch of cool and cute fits for every shade of my gender spectrum! Thank you Pine!!!

it's 5:55am and 55 seconds, on 5/5, and I'm wishing a happy 55th birthday to the 555 timer.

a reminder to all on the Left - part of Mayor Mamdani's success is he is leading with visible joy - participating, being inclusive, and leading with what at least appears to be real genuine joy and pleasure in the success of others as well as in what he is getting to do - for example being the first sitting mayor to participate in the Five Boro bike tour in NYC today (clips are easily found - he's clearly enjoying himself)

It is not easy - there is much to be angry about - but celebrate also

A great line of defense against AI slop: crediting artists.

Having had a little password difficulty on my wife's tablet this evening... this @tomgauld.bsky.social cartoon came to mind.... sometimes, trying to recall your password under pressure is just counterproductive!

@tholindeth And when wolfram alpha made mistakes, they were fun, and still usually technically correct!

There are two dragons inside you.

One wants a Diet Coke.

The other wants a Mentos.

DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM.

The safest day on the internet in recent memories was when cloudflare shat itself and all the phishing sites were down.

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@mttaggart/116518022621367937

Cloudflare doing shit like this is the perfect analogy for why cybersecurity is such a shitshow. They even offered their DDoS mitigation services to canonical. They could just like. take down the stresser service, but that doesn't result in money. I'm so sick of this "its acceptable to be on both sides because we like money." travesty we're forced to deal with on a daily basis.

The coreutils Rust rewrite story is pretty funny.

Coreutils are tools like rm, mv, mkdir, etc. Unlike binutils, this isn't a fertile ground for memory safety bugs. But, the rewrite was completed, and in the spirit of progress, Canonical decided to switch.

But do you know what coreutils are a fertile ground for? Race conditions around file creation, deletion, permission setting, and so on. The original code accounted for decades of hard-learned lessons in that space. The Rust rewrite did not:

PS. I'm not dunking on Rust. It's just that... starting over from scratch has its hidden costs.

> Over 8 million Thermos jars and bottles recalled after 3 people suffer 'permanent vision loss'
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/living/story/8-million-thermos-jars-bottles-recalled-after-3-132568152

From the headline I thought it was some kind of metal poisoning or other contamination issue. Hell no. The damn thing basically is a loaded cannon waiting to shoot it's lid on your fucking face.

If you got one of these, get rid of it now.
