Je zal maar in het onderwijs werken en in plaats van steun van de overheid, een gevangenisstraf riskeren omdat je lesgeeft aan een kind(!) zonder verblijfsvergunning.

Two of our teams just gave talks at the @passthesaltcon 2025 conference in Lille:
@Xeniax tells the story of "federated messaging" waves and her usable security research, emphasizing "availability" as a key issue
passthesalt.ubicast.tv/videos/… --
@hpk starts off with prioritizing usable security and walks through #chatmail transport layer security goals and #deltachat end-point security status, upcoming releases and prospective work on improving metadata and other goals

With the current massive user migration from X and Meta to decentralized social media such as Mastodon, the interest in federated communication infrastructures is gaining traction.Pass the SALT Archives

I am going to have a nervous breakdown any minute now. A full-on panic attack. They are coming to kill us, people. It's not some hypothetical far-off thing. It has already started in a trickle, a long time ago, with a continual building of callous "accidental" deaths in the immigrant holding camps. They will begin doing it intentionally in the coming months. It seems this time around, they might not even hide it, like the Nazis did.

If we do not act, we will die. We need to march NOW. We need to march EVERY DAMN DAY. We need to make plans and carry them out to stop this. Be careful. Be clever. Be effective. Be whatever you need to be, to do your part to stop this.

I'm dying over this reddit comment. Not saying that it is wrong but the framing of books as "old timey entertainment" is funny to me. Like my grandpa talking about farming using mules.
AOC wrote on BlueSky, a good summary of the Trump budget bill adopted in Congress.
"I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing."
