(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

i updated my router's firmware a few days ago and none of my family noticed. not even a thank you! i'm starting to think they don't care about openssl updating from 3.0.14 to 3.0.15 or that PHY MII settings were fixed for several different device families including ramips and ath79!!

Ethernet "Splitter". Part of me wants to scream this is a switch and the other part wants to congratulate the marketer smart enough to call it what people search for www.amazon.com/Pushua-Ether...

Blue Origin Reddit is a wild ride. Pretty obvious Bezos thought he could treat rocket scientists like Amazon warehouse workers and become a bigger billionaire. Only thing is folks don't want to work there and that's not working out like it did with Amazon.

A good general epistemic rule of thumb: If you have spent a few hours or weeks studying an area large numbers of smart, educated people have worked in for decades, and you believe you have discoverer an earthshattering truth they all missed, your default should be to regard this as VERY unlikely.

Figma should have a feature that recognizes when a product manager is in the file and then says: "Oh it looks like you're a PM, let me teach you about auto layout and how not to screw this design up. Or perhaps you'd like to make some pretty flow charts in Figjam instead?"

If you work at a federal agency touched by DOGE, particularly the Education Department — or if you have other information about DOGE that you'd like to share with @nbcnews.com — I'd love to speak with you. I'm on Signal at: tylerkingkadenbc.20 We are good at protecting sources' identities.

I hate that it's gotten this far, but if countries want to counter a US-imposed trade war, they should make Elon Musk's companies a focus of their retaliation. Those business interests have effectively merged with the US executive branch, and decision-makers value them more than the American people.

Don’t know who needs to hear this but if you have stuff in the cloud that is not in your own country and is living on some US server, you need to fix that asap. If you’re in Canada, you need to move your data and servers to Canada.

When I see my dishwasher has a software update all I want is a git log of what they actually changed. I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that GE probably has some terrible security in their appliance firmware

The Internet is a magical place sometimes. Random Shakira super fan on the Internet asked on r/antarctica if there are any Shakira fans that can help wish her a happy birthday. Currently stationed in Antarctica person pops up to say they have a Shakira shirt on station www.reddit.com/r/antarctica...

Democrats moved more swiftly to undermine to college students protesting genocide than Trump’s second administration. They don’t even have a communication strategy in place! Which is wild because comms is the only lever they have to pull until at least midterms.

PSA: If you have any love ones that are on Comcast and aren't heavy Internet users help them save some $$$ on their bill. I had my mom on the mid tier 150Mbps plan which over the years doubled in price and became 800Mbps. Switching her down to 200Mbit saved $45 a month.

To anyone out there in the K8s project. Can someone please please get some redirects on your docs site. Half the blog posts and technical guidance out there is a 404 now. It's a real bummer when CIS, NIST, and every vendor recommendations can't be followed anymore because the site changed

Just took a practice test where I apparently got the definition of configuration management system wrong. I refuse to believe this to be possible
