No joke here folks. If you are involved in tech I urge you to URGENTLY ESCALATE the news of Symantec SSL/TLS cert distrust.

15 mins of checking in NIghtly and I've found the following are broken:

oyster.tfl.gov.uk
southwesttrains
johnlewis
pcworld
currys
bt
O2
ebay

If these everyday names are not on top of it, your ORG is likely not too.

Q: "You mention that WhatsApp isn't safe to use in Kenya. Can you elaborate on why?"

A: "First of all we all know it's not an open source tool. They always say 'end-to-end encryption' so we are not sure if it's *actually* E2EE.. I know some of my fellow journalists whose information has been intercepted through WhatsApp."

It’s so nice to have a social media platform where I can explicitly state that I think every Nazi should fuck off and die, without fear of being slapped with a 7 day ban for hurting their ethnostate loving feelings

I had to sit in a cafe for a few hours yesterday whilst I waited for my passport.

I drank a lot of tea but having a forced break has been really good for me. After work I cleaned our home went to bed early and woke up bright and bushy and felt re-engaged with everything.

Haven't bothered to write up anything for #introductions. I will do this now. I'm blind, a fan of obscure music formats, from odd PCM formats extracted from console and PC games, to chip formats and tracked music. I'm also a fan of old technology in general, though I should get my hands on more of it and haven't gotten around to doing this.
