"ransomware" is the past tense of "run somewhere"

You can tell TCP was written by a Catholic because nobody else begins a conversation by one person shouting sin and the other having to acknowledge it and move forward

this is a friendly reminder to backup your shit

Watching #BRASUI on my 12 year old Thinkpad X60, just for fun. It runs Libreboot and Debian Sid and handles it perfectly - the HD stream causes only ~30% CPU load.

It's really not necessary to buy new hardware all the time. May this be a reminder :)

I have sent e-mails to the MEPs. Have you?

Every e-mail counts. I know this, because years ago I was an activist fighting similar odds on the ground: http://rys.io/en/70

So send your e-mails, call your MEPs. Block Article 11 and Article 13 of the Copyright Directive.

Hey #PeerTube, you are *awesome*. That's how it's done!

"You are blocking Javascript, and we totally get that. However this endpoint uses Angular, so the front end is in full JavaScript and won't work without it.

There will be other non JS-based clients to access PeerTube, but for now none is available as this is still alpha software. Be sure we will update this page with a list once alternative clients are developed. You can certainly develop you own in the meantime as our code is open (...)"

Stefan Sperling (@stsp) releases (with permission) the emails between the #OpenBSD project and the #KRACK #embargo.

[mathy] "I sent one mail on 14 August where I mentioned the new disclosure date of 16 Oct. In that same mail I also gave the OK to quietly commit a fix. "

Wait what? One should hold oneself to an embargo of a vendor even if One has not signed the NDA to get access to the embargoed information? Please tell me I am not the only person thinking this is ridiculous. #lazyFP #BSD

“...should have considered himself part of the embargo in spirit if not in letter.”

oh my god

More and more I think my doctoral research will focus on the process of change. What troubles me is much of my reading list: Foucault, vonHippel, Womack.... today I added Centola.

What troubles me is that it is very white and very, very male. So I’m asking, begging really, for recommendations: Non-white, non-male scholars studying the process of change (any discipline) - Expecting the responses will make me feel embarrassed for having had to ask...

Five years ago to the day, the #PRISM program was made public. One of the main revelations in the summer of #Snowden, making very clear which companies we all should avoid.

However, let's not forget that Snowden had already tried to leak the information many months earlier. The NSA scandal almost didn't happen because Greenwald was reluctant to use PGP and didn't take Snowden seriously in the beginning. #TrueStory

@nextcloud that will be on fdroid hopefully tomorrow!
