There's a special pleasure in fixing things.

My toaster has an intermittent problem with popping up too soon, but every time I'm about to take it apart it starts behaving again.

Its not all its cracked up to be; it attract's pendant's like you would'nt believe.

Great find, great write-up. Such a simple bug (and fix).

[-] Deebster@infosec.pub 5 points 2 days ago

I wouldn't be so sure - I can see someone accidentally stumbling over it doing something benign like TDD.

In a warming world, there's more energy in the wind. Does that mean more useful wind, or does it just mean more extreme winds that can't be used for generation?

The title here is just the one from the article. Lots of comms insist on that (too much faff to check if this one does since I'm on a phone).

He's definitely not the landlord, but perhaps he's in the 24th century version of Occupy Wall Street - Occupy Starfleet.

Isn't picts-rs just something that runs on one server and just handles converting and resizing images? The new remote media storage stuff could run that, but the point is to allow more centralised servers so not every instance needs to individually store, process and transmit media.

Not just media, things like searching the Fediverse can be handled by a dedicated server, shared (or not) by multiple servers. Also spam detection, link preview generation, etc.

This one doesn't read properly in any direction; I assume that these screens aren't in sync and it's the first screen's fault.

CPUID has since confirmed the breach, pinning it on a compromised backend component rather than tampering with its software builds.

"Investigations are still ongoing, but it appears that a secondary feature (basically a side API) was compromised for approximately six hours between April 9 and April 10, causing the main website to randomly display malicious links (our signed original files were not compromised)," one of the site's owners said in a post on X. "The breach was found and has since been fixed."

My favourite bit is this from the comments:

I wrote "please do not deliver this letter" on a correctly addressed and stamped letter once, it never arrived. A thrilling day indeed.

I love Doom Bar and I'm not alone since it's among the bestselling cask ales in the UK, but it seems that the US owners are going for a quick payout by closing and asset stripping what's left.

I wonder how long until they start building houses or an industrial park on the old site?

A severed mosquito proboscis can be turned into an extremely fine nozzle for 3D printing, and this could help create replacement tissues and organs for transplants.

I've linked to a decent write-up on Tom's Hardware, but New Scientist covered it last week too.

An Australian YouTuber got invited to a NATO wargame and made this very interesting video about it.

The section that starts at 3m30s (10 minutes long) discusses the military history of wargaming which I found fascinating.

The rest of it is also well worth a watch.

It's not new (it sat in my watch later list for a month since it's 65 minutes long) so apologies if you've already seen it.

My personal domain has hundreds of aliases - one for each site I deal with. This is great for identifying the source of spam, and I retire any aliases that get spam.

haveibeenpwned.com lets me add a domain, but wants 3912 USD a year to actually tell me which addresses leaked. This is obviously an insane price for a nice-to-have.

Is there an alternative for free or very cheap? A self-hosted tool that would pull down lists would be great, but I suppose those lists aren't public.

“Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State,” Trump continued.

If he hasn't done anything wrong, why does he need a pardon?

Watermelons became symbols of Palestine amid censorship of the Palestinian flag because of its similar colours.

Ah, ok - before reading I thought someone had got their stereotypes mixed up.

It's an increase in reported monthly users, as now activity like voting is also considered, not just posts/comments.
