This team picture was taken 7 years ago and the world looked much brighter back then.

Yet, we at Tuta will keep fighting for your right to privacy. Encryption must stay strong - for journalists, dissidents, businesses, and for YOU!

Read Hanna's comment on how Signalgate 2.0 proves that backdoors must never be allowed:

Signalgate 2.0 proves it - there’s no such thing as a “Backdoor for the Good Guys Only” | Tuta

Sensitives data fell into the hands of criminals because US officials were using a non-encryption version of the popular chat app Signal.

#AudioMo 18:

This is a silly sequence thing I did in the early morning hours of October 11, 2015, using an Arturia Microbrute and a Korg ARP Odyssey, both analog sequencers, in combination with a Digitech Studio Quad IV processor. I made a very basic sequence using the Microbrute's onboard step sequencer, connected the CV pitch and gate outputs from the Microbrute to the Odyssey, turned on the sequencer, then just played with a bunch of sliders and knobs, including filters, envelopes, effects sends, panning and tempo, all while this simple sequence that really seems to enjoy moving around in fourths continues.

It's nothing that was ever meant to be anything real. Just me messing around on a boring Sunday morning.

For the past five days, we've had to go to the bomb shelter several times a day to protect ourselves from Iranian missiles. This morning, they sent 20 missiles closer to our apartment than any of the previous attacks. One of the Missiles landed in the next town and created a great big hole.

This is what it sounded like from our kitchen window.

The recording Starts with the air raid sirens, and then just before they finish at about 90 seconds, you start to hear the interceptions.

Krásné dobré ráno mastodonní děckapecka! 🙋‍♀️🐶🐈
Mně dneska začíná volno! S Otcem rodu vyrážíme na Šumavu. Potomci zůstávají doma. Archibaldík taky. Zkouška pro nás oba. 😂 Lednice je plná k prasknutí. Špajz taky. Navařeno jest. Nádrž u náhradního vozidla plná. Tousty na cestu v procesu. Bez těch by to Otec rodu nedal. 😁
Nebojte, mě se nezbavíte. Pokud bude signál, já přijdu! 😁😁😁
Vy zůstaňte na svých přijímačích a nezlobte tady! 😊

Pilot compiling with #poudriere for #FreeBSD #ports went well! It did seem a bit complicated to configure at first but sing ports made easy with #poudriere and #jail. It was so simple and straightforward to actually run #poudriere that I secretly thought it took out all the fun of seeing scrolling screens of compling! #BSD #Unix #UseBSD #RunBSD #FOSS

I have followed this guy on YouTube who reviews restaurants and public transit in LA for the past year or so and today he uploaded food reviews at the LA protests and it's fantastic. You can see quiet, chill citizens marching for better treatment then masked marines looking like stormtroopers deployed for no good reason. youtube.com/watch?v=lpeG4S6a7k…

Well, the time is almost upon us, well me and my captain anyway. The big bike ride is on Saturday... 4 more sleeps as they say. Just 4 more days of fundraising and then it's 130 KM of hopefully not too hot cycling. For everyone who have donated, thank you so much, it meanhs a lot for not only me, but for the organizations that will receive the funds. And thank you so much for cheering me on virtually on Saturday. I'll see if I can do a few live audio or videos on here. Have to figure out how: raceroster.com/events/2025/916…

Help Martin raise money for participating in EyeRide 2025 on June 21, 2025

I'm stoked, (see what I did there?), to get back on the tandem and helping in this fundraiser. It will be a blast and I'll be helping a bunch of organizations.

That's rather interesting and odd. I've tried a private browsing window and it was still showing 2024.4.2, then I tried a regular window, and only after CTRL+F5 the issue was resolved, though multiple people are noticing the same thing. Originally it was reported by a few users on the audiogames forum and I wanted to check if you can do something on your end, something seems to be cached that shouldn't be.

Fears of racial profiling rise as Border Patrol conducts 'roving patrols,' detains U.S. citizens

Border Patrol agents on 'roving patrol' arrest U.S. citizen on assault charges. Fear of widespread racial profiling gains momentum as Home Depots and car washes raided.

".,..Agents picking up street vendors without warrants. American citizens being grilled. Home Depot lots swept. Car washes raided. The wide-scale arrests and detainments — often in the region’s largely Latino neighborhoods — contain hallmarks of racial profiling and other due process violations....“We are seeing ICE come into our communities to do indiscriminate mass arrests of immigrants or people who appear to them to be immigrant, largely based on racial profiling,” said Eva Bitran, a lawyer at ACLU of Southern California.

I wrote about how to turn in-person meetings into Signal groups, how to manage large semi-public Signal groups while vetting new members, and how to use announcement-only Signal groups, perfect for rapidly responding to ICE raids micahflee.com/using-signal-gro…

Using Signal groups for activism

Things are heating up. Millions of people are taking to the streets against Trump's rising authoritarianism.
