Security experts warned Friday about a widespread zero day vulnerability, tentatively dubbed "CVE-2025-TRUMP," that threatens to let Russia backdoor....well, everything.

What.. Wtf.. https://youtu.be/wdOPrHI4BYg?si=0pKV_S8ZeR_658n4

Really Ontario? More Dougie, that's what you think we need?

What I want to know is, does John Oliver walk the walk? Is his show / he himself on Fedi?

Looking at how #LLM are promoted by their fans, I've come to the conclusion: Pretty much everyone from a #STEM background - myself definitely included! - owes the #Humanities a huge apology. I mean, I get it. When I was a young student of physics, it was easy for me to sneer at philosophy […]

Just, wow. @mmasnick has an important piece about the Trump administration's threat to pull funding from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) unless they remove all referenced to LGBTQ+ issues starts "deadnaming" trans kids. "After years of screaming “save the […]

I've started posting on LinkedIn all the unconstitutional shit Trump and Musk are doing to undermine the security and integrity of our government. Mainly because that crowd needs to hear it most. It's incredible how many people in the infosec space are still defending the actions of DOGE and […]

"Move fast and break things" was always an asshole worldview.

Do your part! Contribute to the heat death of the universe by increasing entropy! #fitness #excercise

Drop what you are doing and read this incredible story from Wired, if you can. After that, come back here. https://www.wired.com/story/edward-coristine-tesla-sexy-path-networks-doge/ It mentions that a 19 y/o man who's assisting Musk's team and who has […] [Original post on infosec.exchange]

This quote from Count Zero by the very prescient William Gibson (@GreatDismal) keeps popping into my head... "And, for an instant, she stared directly into those soft blue eyes and knew, with an instinctive mammalian certainty, that the exceedingly rich were no longer even remotely human."

It actually happened! I got polled! They asked about both provincial and federal election preferences. Although maybe just a scam, claimed to be "national public research Canada" which doesn't appear to be a thing. I always wondered who was being polled in all this reporting. This is the […]

This whole tariff thing is crazy. It feels like it would be good to retaliate but at the same time it seems like the meta game might be to just let 🤡 punch himself in the face. It's gonna hurt us (Canada) but based on my understanding it's gonna hurt US as well. If we don't do anything then […]

oh hey look I recorded another Pod Cast! this time with @ludicity, who reveals never-before-heard gossip* that you'll just have to hear to believe! * he didn't like Avengers: Endgame https://phils-web-site.net/pod-cast/2/

Irony is dead.

In my experience, the "there are no adults in charge" assertion that's making the rounds is only partially true -- I am surrounded by true adults making tricky adult choices on behalf of their stakeholders. I also believe that the best way to improve things is to _assume_ there are no adults […]

Remember Project 2025? That Trump said he knew nothing about? Anyhoo, the federal documents that Trump has been putting out for instructions have Project 2025 authors all over them, as they forgot to strip the metadata. https://www.404media.co/opm-memos-to-federal-employees-metadata/

Alright fine systemd-networkd, you can't do ERSPAN despite what the docs say. I'll just use a shell script #linux #systemd

BREAKING: Elon Musk is reportedly furious people keep calling Tesla vehicles “swasticars.” So don't do that. #swasticars

Wrote up my selfish personal argument for releasing code as Open Source: if you solve a problem and then release it under an Open Source license you will never have to solve that problem again for the rest of your career! https://simonwillison.net/2025/Jan/24/selfish-open-source/

online subscription service: hey you need to renew and update your card info me: okay. here are my magic numbers. service: no. this card is European me: yes, I rather went out of my way to pay extra for a mastercard after moving to Europe because American sites take those without being weird […]

So, TikTok is supposedly a national security threat from China, but it seems odd that there's been almost no mainstream press coverage of Trump dismantling the board investigating the Salt Typhoon hack which is an ACTUAL PROVEN hack from China & incredibly damaging. www.techdirt.com/2025/01/23/t...

Despite all the crazy headlines let's focus on the real Canadian crisis - no (English) Canadian #Taskmaster. We've allowed New Zealand and Australia and many others to leap frog us in this critical resource! Where's the royal commission on this? There's a Quebecois version, surely that […]

Who wore it better?

Cool project: "Nepenthes" is a tarpit to catch (AI) web crawlers. "It works by generating an endless sequences of pages, each of which with dozens of links, that simply go back into a the tarpit. Pages are randomly generated, but in a deterministic way, causing them to appear to be flat files […]

I feel like I'm being trolled...

Breaking: In a stinging outmaneuver of Trump, Canada buys Greenland from Denmark. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen: “They made an exploding, all-cash offer with no inspection contingency, we really had no choice.”

“That’s not ______, it’s just capitalism” has kinda dissolved into a thought-terminating cliché. Like yes, corrupt systems operate within other larger corrupt systems. But contempt for specifics seems dangerous to me. If you want to fight something oppressive, seems worth trying to understand […]

@DanielSuarez this you? https://www.reddit.com/r/Futurology/s/Ok0nJSbiAC 😀 After reading Delta-V, was curious how much you agreed with the idea of prioritizing asteroid mining/orbital economy over mars missions?

Cartoonist Ann Telnaes leaves WaPo after someone above her killed a cartoon - the first that's happened in 16 years, she says. The cartoon shows a bunch of oligarchs kneeling before and handing sacks of money to #Trump #news #media […]

Happy to see #CBCNYE is back! Would have been nice to see the 22 minutes folks bring out the chicken cannon 🐔 Adrienne might be a little drunk and it's awesome.
