Calling all #Signal experts. I'm getting this: "Something went wrong with your username, it’s no longer assigned to your account. You can try and set it again or choose a new one." Tried setting from the phone and from the laptop (iOS and Windows respectively), no dice. What should I do now? @signalapp
From YouTube recommendations, a short video documentary about the first auto GPS system that was tested in Orlando between 1991 and 1992. It was in some ways ahead of its time because in addition to GPS it used radio communication for real-time traffic updates. Also featuring a very familiar text to speech voice that I bet a lot of my fellow blind followers will recognize youtube.com/watch?v=iVzD6HzBXe…

@JamminJerry Yeah, the talking language master use this system as well. It’s called bestspeech, more famously known as the voice of the Keynote synthesizer. Though the version used for that was newer than the one used on the language, master and in this video so it sounds a bit different
@menelion No, I don't have a second account, and nothing against mastodon.de but it's not an instance I would use. Idk why they can't ban him from accessing their instance. I've heard he uses a vpn but there still must be a way to do it.

Het fascisme is terug. Vind je dat overdreven? Dat is precies hoe het werkt.
Deze uitlegvideo van De Correspondent, van minder dan 10 minuten, wens ik een groot bereik toe. Met name onder mensen die mochten denken dat het 'allemaal wel meevalt'.
Beter en krachtiger dan deze korte en toegankelijke video valt het niet uit te leggen. Dat we even goed weten waar we staan.
Ja, het fascisme is terug. Vind je dat overdreven? Dat is precies hoe het werkt. Fascisme maakt extremisme normaal, waardoor waarschuwingen alarmistisch klin...
« Il y a deux ans, Dominique Bernard était assassiné devant son lycée, victime du terrorisme islamiste.
Assassiné pour sa vocation : enseigner, transmettre, éveiller les consciences. Assassiné parce qu'il défendait son école, le savoir, ses élèves. Assassiné parce qu'il incarnait tout ce que la haine, l'obscurantisme, l'islamisme détestent.
Jamais je n'oublierai ce 13 octobre et les jours qui ont suivi. Le choc face à l'attentat. La dignité des collègues de Dominique Bernard, le courage des élèves, la grandeur de la famille et de ses proches.
Nous rendons hommage à ce serviteur de l’École, à son courage, à sa passion de transmettre. Nous pensons à son épouse, à sa famille, à ses collègues et à tous les professeurs qui, tous les jours, font vivre la République dans chaque salle de classe. » Src : t.me/PartiRenaissance/4632

You want to know how little we actually trust these post-quantum algorithms? So little that we're concerned that the NSA wants to formalize quantum-only crypto instead of hybrid crypto where we use current algorithms AND pq algorithms.
If we actually trusted this stuff worked, we wouldn't be afraid. But we are. Why is that?

Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement
New design sets a high standard for post-quantum readiness.

someone is gonna say "but layers, security in layers!!"
ok so why don't we use AES and Twofish or Serpent together? Don't say performance, because that really shouldn't be a concern if security is that important.

Hi everyone, if you have ever been interested in listening to cylinder recordings from the late 1870's onward, here is a website which has preserved 10000 cylinders and digitized them so that people in the modern day can enjoy these early recordings for our listening pleasure. They have also a link to a list of just over 650 home recordings of people at the time who bought Edisons' Phonograph and used them in there houses and made recordings at the time on cylinders as well. The site describes this better than I can, but hope y'all enjoy. #History #recordings Overview | UCSB Cylinder Audio Archive cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/ove…
Digital collection of 6,000 cylinder records from 1895-1920s with downloadable and streaming audio held by the Department of Special Collection, University of California, Santa Barbara.

Bonjour, il y a une communauté aveugle et malvoyante sur masto ? Je cherche à me renseigner sur les besoins d’accessibilité, notamment pour l’accueil lors de permanences associatives. Je n’y connais rien, est-ce qu’il y a des ressources francophones sur le sujet ?
Posez des questions, je ferais de mon mieux pour vous y répondre. Je me présente, professionnel en accessibilité (plutôt numérique) complètement aveugle de naissance. Et oui, la communauté aveugle est assez large ici, on s'est tous sauvé de Twitter.
First there was iTunes video, then Apple TV+, and now just Apple TV. Apple's rebranding of Apple TV+ means that it now has Apple TV, Apple TV, and the Apple TV. appleinsider.com/articles/25/1…

Pro mě je teď asi největší topovka A6 e-tron. Baterka 95 kWh, reálný dojezd po dálnici přes 500 km, 800V architektura... 😍 CLA taky dobrý, ale já tím potřebuju nahradit BMW 5, má to malý kufr.
@schmaker Jede to jak z praku, chová se přesně tak, jak má, zcela předvídatelné. Když v tom jdeš, tak máš z toho radost. Možný brzdy by mohly být lepší, ale bylo to nové auto, tak si ještě nesedly, tak těžko soudit. Já tam šel s tím, že mi v autě fakt vadí dotykové displeje a neustálé šmírování, a odcházel jsem s tím, že to jsou jenom takové podružné detaily. Tak dobrý to auto je. Přišel jsem domů a začal počítat, jestli si můžu dovolit to hned objednat. 🙂 Bohužel mi do toho žena hodila trochu vidle, že do EV nesedne, že tam všichni uhoříme. Tak na tom budu muset ještě trochu zapracovat.
Dear Apple, if you really want to introduce something that might impress us, stop making shiny things and make it so we can cut and paste files in finder. It’s 2025 and we still cannot cut and paste files on a Mac.
Like I said, gpt with siri integration knows the answer it said this: In Finder, select the file and press Command + C to copy it, then go to the destination folder and press Option + Command + V to move it, which is the equivalent of cutting and pasting.Which is what I said, but said cmd opt v instead. It's existed since ages.
I've received a request from, I guess, a blind individual who'd like to play RIS but of course can't see it. This is all way over my head, so I'll paste his request in here. I have no idea what wou...

@matt That's pretty much what I was hoping to provoke with the post, I only pretend to be an engineer and don't really know what would be best for their project. thanks very much!! You are an absolute legend, sir.

ICE is quietly building up its ability to spy on Americans' phones. Earlier this month, the agency activated a $2 million contract with Paragon, a service that offers the ability to remotely hack into someone's phone. Last week, ICE entered into an $11 million contract for Cellebrite devices, which allow agents to break into a locked phone in their physical possession. reason.com/2025/09/29/ice-does…
allegedly, and from my perspective as a former calyxos employee (i do not represent them)...
the founder was the keeper of the signing keys, and has stated this publicly. when he separated from the institute (which is a whole other story), he didn't give the signing keys to the institute in a timely manner, if at all. although there was no evidence that the keys had been compromised or accessed from outside the organization, there *was* reason to believe that they had not always been handled in a secure manner (which is yet another whole other story). also, because these were key *files*, and probably not even protected by passphrases (but i don't know), copies were always *possible*.
the OS team decided to only release updates signed with *fully* trusted keys going forward, that were not subject to unauthorized copies. the OS team has been working on a hardware security module-based solution for signing. the exception to this was one last update to inform users about this situation, to the extent permitted by comms folks. this was facilitated by eventual cooperation from the founder.
that being said, i do not myself believe that there is any actual risk today associated with using a build signed with these older keys, apart from it not having the latest updates. but i also support switching to new keys that are better safeguarded, and i can't guarantee there wouldn't be a risk associated with these older keys in the future.
there is more to know as well, but too much to write here. still, it is false to say that the calyxos team doesn't want you to know this.
source: i worked on #calyxos while all this was happening. i no longer work for #calyx. and this is all just alleged, based on what i experienced and was told. i never signed an NDA 🙃
