I'll take the opportunity to once again complain about how AWS's status page is a UX clusterfuck. Pretty much the entire us-east-1 region is unreliable, that needs to be glaring from the page. Instead, I need to browse hundreds of

... except for when it's not all ok. It's not ok for a private corporation to play by its own rules and have total control over digital identities, about how you get presented online, about if you are or aren't allowed to be

You might not like to hear this perspective, but that doesn't make it any less true. Many corporations produce lots of value that is based on corrupt moral values: from companies doing arms sales in third-world countries (i.e. profitin

Approaching the "to google or not to google" question is impossible without stating your casus belli . If you care about opsec, there are many reasons why you would want to use google services: e.g. a hostile actor will have an

This SoC has notoriously bad kernel and firmware support. I'm expecting similar devices with much better support to hit the market by the end of the year.

It's all about what OSs ship with, and we're getting to the point where Python 3.x is the default.

Curious if there's any project that aggregates all the transparency data data into a nice CSV, could be useful to chart and track trends.

At least in some circles in my vicinity, there's been lots of pushback claiming Hola isn't that bad. I hope this recent flurry of releases puts that notion to sleep. Hola is not only an uncontrollable exit node but also malware in

Yes, we've passed Peak Facebook, but that's just because it has been distilled and pornographized to the point of desensitization. Pure capitalism at its finest. What will set the trend for the future is our understanding of how d

Use a password manager. KeepassX is a good choice if you only trust yourself (and your backups). LastPass and 1Password are good choices if you don't care about letting others host your (supposedly encrypted) passwords.

Well, I'd say switch just because all mainline development is now happening on the Python 3. I'm not too familiar with the development roadmap and which "features" might be useful for different audiences (e.g. the unicod

Is anyone still using Python 2 for new projects? I'm curious to hear reasons for this, given that Python 3 provides so much good stuff, and pretty much all the important libraries and environments now support Python 3.

Sounds pretty fucking expensive. You can get a $10 RTL-SDR [1] dongle that happily churns out over 2MSp/s and feed random radio noise to your entropy pool using rtl_entropy [2]. Also what's up with the flag, 'murica? [1] - h
