Welcome to the RB family, MultiLocale 🥳

apt.izzysoft.de/packages/io.ni…

MultiLocale enables you to add additional (or "unsupported") languages to your device's locale settings, if the OEM doesn't let you.

With joint efforts, the app's author and I got it RB. The repo here should reflect that with the next release.

Who would have expected that doing Whois on a domain name, grepping everything that looks like an e-mail address and sending there Domain Control Validation e-mails could go wrong 😀

The image is a statement from President Donald J. Trump, dated November 12, 2024. It features a logo at the top with the words "TRUMP VANCE TRANSITION" in blue and red letters, with five red stars above the word "TRUMP."

The statement announces that Elon Musk, in collaboration with Vivek Ramaswamy, will lead the Department of Government Efficiency, abbreviated as "DOGE." The goal is to dismantle government bureaucracy, reduce regulations, cut expenditures, and restructure federal agencies as part of the "Save America" movement. Elon Musk is quoted as saying that this will send shockwaves through the system and affect many involved in government waste.

The statement describes this initiative as potentially the "Manhattan Project" of the time, aiming for drastic changes with guidance from outside the government. It will partner with the White House and the Office of Management & Budget for large-scale reform and an entrepreneurial approach to government.

The statement expresses anticipation for Musk and Ramaswamy to improve federal bureaucracy efficiency and reduce government spending, which is stated to be $6.5 trillion annually. The work is expected to conclude by July 4, 2026, coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The statement ends with confidence in their success.

We could really use some help. I've been sick for about a week now, and haven't had the spoons to post, but reaching the point now where I dont have a choice. We are out of money ($17.33 total to our names atm), and we have a lot of bills coming due, including $275.67 if we don't want our electricity disconnected on the 18th, $300 for our overdue income tax payment arrangement which was supposed to have been paid on the 8th, $168.84 for our water, $226.46 for our phones, another $567.83 at the start of next month for them to not take our car.

Hey, Who fans. Sadly, Mastodon didn't pan out the way I hoped, there wasn't much of a community that built up and there still isn't that much really. So...

We've just set up on Bsky if you want to connect and chat there - bsky.app/profile/bigblueboxpod… and (for now at least) still on X/Twitter - x.com/bigblueboxpcast

Whatever social channel you're on, let's connect and chat #DoctorWho

For now, Mastodon, peace out. It's been fun.

Tens of thousands of exposed D-Link routers that have reached their end-of-life are vulnerable to a critical security issue that allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to change any user's password and take complete control of the device.

x.x.x.x - - [10/Nov/2024:00:02:37 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 301 162 "-" "okhttp/4.9.0"

You know what’s interesting about this log line? It repeats 56,686,963 times in www.kernel.org logs for yesterday, across 4 nodes. That’s about 700 times a second, and this has been going on for months.

These requests aren’t intentionally malicious – they issue a simple GET /, receive their 301 redirect, and terminate the connection. From what I can tell, this is some kind of appliance or software installed on mobile clients that uses “can I reach www.kernel.org” as a network test.

This wouldn’t be that big of a deal – a single plaintext “GET /“ that triggers an immediate 301 is very cheap for us to generate, but the number of these requests has been steadily growing.

If you have any idea what this is and how to make it stop, please reach out?

Get ready for the transition to @thunderbird mobile!

"I’m a neurology ICU nurse. The creep of AI in our hospitals terrifies me"

This interview confirms all the things I have been going on about for the last year.

"I don’t think the goal is really to provide a safety net for everyone — I think it’s actually to speed us up, so we can see more patients, reduce visits down from 15 minutes to 12 minutes to 10. Efficiency, again."

I’m a neurology ICU nurse. The creep of AI in our hospitals terrifies me - Coda Story

The healthcare landscape is changing fast thanks to the introduction of artificial intelligence. These technologies have shifted decision-making power away from nurses and on to the robots.
