December 17! It's a Mavica!

Here is a later model that was lightly used back in the day. This platform-agnostic camera was revolutionary for its compatibility and ease of use. The optics weren't bad either! 📸

These are also very reasonably priced, and new batteries are affordable and available. Highly recommend!

This is your regular and very unwanted reminder that it's not "heli+copter", but "helico+pter", with "pter" being the same root word meaning "wing" as in pterodactyl.

You know I think animals might be onto something with the whole nuzzling thing

You ever rub your face into a pillow like super hard? Most satsifying thing ever

‪look upon the world with the eyes of a game developer and everything looks pretty because wow the real world is so good at diffuse reflections and lighting (for real though)‬

my cold take on the Threads federation thing is: if you simply consider them not as some mystical "platform" but as any other "instance", then they're an over-sized under-moderated data-scraping instance housing many vile users right up to the point of "technically legal free speech"... and we've all suspended instances before for much less.

‪this is but one tiny example of what i mean when i say: THIS WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL, AND WE MUST PROTECT IT‬

Some of my favorite papers are the ones where you can go back and look at other, non-vulnerable constructions and see "oh, that's why they did it that way". Here: SSH doesn't do handshake transcript integrity --- they felt like it was good enough to just authenticate the _parts_ of the handshake that went into key negotiation. Compare with (say) Noise, or TLS.

Result: attackers can inject no-op messages into the handshake. "Who cares”, right, except that SSH keeps implicit sequence numbers and the NOPs bump those sequence numbers, allow attackers to edit the underlying handshake.

@tqbf note to self: do not call protocol "secure"

@hikari ah, I remember one of the Mozilla blog posts about XUL and WebExtensions, where they talked about how they ported some internal functions from JavaScript to C and then some big extensions broke because they were patching those functions by stringifying and regexing them...
