I'm not an expert in infosec, but I do know a few things about cryptography, and I feel fairly confident in saying that this is misinformation.

I don't ascribe or suspect any ill-will, but I will caution that getting us to distrust tools that can help us to stay secure is a kind of propaganda that we can easily fall for. Partly because infosec is, as far as my lay understanding goes, is pretty fucking bleak!

I mean, whatever you think about "quantum computing" the fact is they are absolutely doing things in computing, right now, that are going to render all of your present encryption irrelevant.

I fully believe that you have written a math library which in theory would do amazing work on a Quantum Computer if one was ever invented that did everything the theory thinks it would be able to do.

Q: I have access to a trillion dollar IT budget. Which Quantum CPU should I buy to do my incredibly expensive math calculations on using your library? I don't care if it's an engineering sample and we have to sign NDAs. And which OS can I install on it?

This is a helpful and frightening perspective on why Americans have such different views of who Charlie Kirk was. Screenshot from FB; original poster's name is in the screenshot but I'm not typing it because she might not want it searchable outside FB:

"One thing that has become really clear since yesterday is that we live in at least two different realities. Talking to a friend who only knew Charlie as a Christian motivational speaker because that's all that ever came across her feed. Showed me videos I've never seen before of him saying perfectly reasonable and empowering things.

"I showed her videos she'd never seen before of his racism, misogyny, homophobia, advocating for violence against specific groups of people. She was horrified by his remarks about Pelosi's husband's attacker being bailed out and celebrated for his violent act. She was horrified by a number of things that he said, but she had never seen or heard them before, the same as I had never seen or heard the generalized clips of him sounding like a perfectly nice loving man and father.

"Neither of us had a whole picture of this man. I mentioned he was a known white supremacist and she thought I was joking. She talked about him giving a speech about finding your purpose and doing good in the world and I thought she was joking.

"I saw why this friend was mourning the loss of a person she thought was a good person. My friend, bless her, saw why I feel the way I do about him. We understood each other better. In spite of a multi-billion dollar internet machine specifically focused on keeping us apart. Because we talked to each other with the desire to listen and to learn rather than the desire to change someone else's mind or to be 'right'.

"None of those motivational things he said change my opinion about him because they don't erase the negativity, the subtle calls for violence, the belittling and denigrating of other races religions genders etc. His negative and blaming comments about homeless people, the poor, and victims of domestic violence. His comments about rounding up people who didn't think like him and putting them in camps where their behavior could be corrected. That time he said empathy was a made-up word he didn't believe in. That other time he said the Civil Rights Act was a mistake. The time he said most people are afraid when they get on a plane and see that there's a black pilot. His anti-vaccination rhetoric and his active campaigning against people being allowed to wear masks for their own health. His open support of fascism and white supremacy. To me, all of those are fully unchristian sentiments. Those are undeniable and just one of them would be a deal-breaker for me. All of them together are a picture of a man who was polarizing, enraged a lot of people and rightly so, but even with all of that I would never wish upon him or especially his children the end that he got.

"Oh, and my friend had never heard, and God help me I don't know how she escaped the news, but she had never heard of the Minnesota legislators who were shot in June. The husband and wife and dog who were killed, one after throwing themselves over their child to protect the child. The other couple who somehow survived. Politically motivated attacks specifically because they were democrats. She learned about those shootings that happened months ago because I showed her Charlie Kirk's comments about them. The kidnapping plot against a female Midwestern Democratic governor. The assassination attempt against Pennsylvania's democratic governor. All things Charlie had plenty to say about while supporting the Second Amendment and bashing the Democratic party. She didn't know about any of it because we're all living in two different worlds and none of us have the whole story."

@tuukkao I literally just wrote a comment on Applevis about this, I'm really getting concerned that macOS is just going to be left in the dark more and more. I've been a Mac user for like 15 years at this point, and I feel like I was in denial for most of that time. A lot of people said they had problems and I just didn't see them, but over the last few years I'm really starting to understand what they've been talking about. It's not just VoiceOver, the system feels antiquated and like an afterthought when compared to iOS.

Hello my dear friends, please let me know how you are doing and reassure me about your health and wellbeing.

The situation here is really, really bad.
The Israeli army has ordered a full evacuation of Gaza. They dropped leaflets from planes telling people to move to the south, and they’re preparing for a large-scale ground invasion. It might actually have started now. At the same time, they’re bombing entire residential blocks — destroying entire neighborhoods.

Because of the fear and panic, people are rushing to the south in huge crowds. It’s absolute chaos.

As for me — I walked. I walked with my family on foot from northern Gaza all the way to the south. We couldn’t afford the transport costs; they’re extremely high. The roads were packed with people, and even though people were trying to evacuate, the army was still bombing areas along the way.

It’s impossible to explain how heavy this all feels. But thank God, I’m okay now. I was sick and exhausted, but I’m slowly feeling better. My mother gave me an injection last night, and it did wonders. And we’ve saved ourselves from the bombings, for now. Just wanted to update you and thank you for caring.

I heard someone say that the things we call 'manly' or 'make a man out of you' if you do it, work hard without quality of life, drink shitty beer or bad coffee, don't use PPE, heavy back breaking labour, dying in futile wars. All have one thing in common: it serves the rich to get richer.

And I can't stop thinking that masculinity is just capitalist extortion.

macOS Tahoe UI has a HUGE new feature for folks like me who have 24/7 Mac Minis running and access them remotely: you can now type the boot password remotely via SSH!

Power on the Mac, then SSH to it. A simple SSH server will handle your request. Typing the password there is equivalent to typing it on the keyboard. The connection then closes and the machine boots normally.

Combine this with "Start up automatically after a power failure" and you can ditch that KVM! #macadmins

"Misconfigured platform used by DHS left national security information—including some related to the surveillance of Americans—accessible to thousands of people

"Now a data leak affecting DHS's intel arm has shed light not just on how DHS gathers/stores that sensitive info—incl about its surveillance of Americans—but on how it once left that data exposed to 1000s of govt, priv sector workers, even foreign natls who were never authorized to see it"

It was an ordinary Someday afternoon when someone switched off the world. My senses took in nothing—even my sense of up and down was gone.
In a droning voice all too familiar to so many JAWS users of the last decade, the sky spoke to me. "Please select where you would like to respawn.
1. Nanaimo - No Location Found.
2. Gibsons - No Location Found.
My mind raced. This was like the start of a Lit RPG book. But I was here, floating in the respawn void. My city—the one I'd been in just before the world ceased to be—was reporting "no location found."
On a whim, I reached out and booped the air with my finger. "37. Edmonton - Incomplete", proclaimed God for Windows.
Okay. So a virtual touchscreen. With a screen reader. That's ... uh, very inclusive of whatever entity created this. I tried scrolling up on the virtual screen: "66. Atlantic Ocean."
Um, no thank you. Scroll some more. Lots more. Whatever happened to the pacific northwest, I wanted nothing to do with it.
"412. New South Wales."
"Yes, get me there." Feeling an inexplicable sense of urgency, I tapped repeatedly on the invisible screen. Immediately, I felt the terrifying sensation of hurtling through the air faster than any solid object should rightfully fly through the atmosphere. With an abruptness that threatened to send me sprawling forward, I landed on a rocky path. Almost reflexively, without a clue of where I was, I started to jog forward. I heard music. As I ran faster and faster, it got louder and louder, until I could make out the tune. It sounded very familiar. It sounded like ... my Alexa alarm. #WeirdDream

Updated to TeamTalk 5.20 on the Bootcamp. Everything was fine at first, then my audio input died so I restarted TT, tried to rejoin the server, and TT crashed. I tried again, TT crashed again. I tried again, TT crashed again. I restarted Windows and tried again, TT froze, but sorted itself out when I was moved to the channel everyone else was in. All was fine for a little while, until my microphone input peed itself again and I had to restart TT. Same old crashy crashy after rejoining the server after that. I still had my 5.18 installer lying around, so I just said fuck it and downgraded. Let this be a warning not to upgrade to 5.20. Apparently not everyone is having issues, but me and another friend of mine definitely were.

I don't comprehend businesses entrusting their entire online presence to the big social-media companies.

Yes, I drove past your new restaurant today and would love to learn more! But you don't have an actual web-page for basic things like menu, hours, pricing, or contact info? Like the sort of thing you could obtain for <$10/year on a cheap hosting service?

Sure, I suppose I'll open your Instagram page in a Private Browsing window. Oh, wait, IG will only show me 2–3 screenfuls of posts before requiring me to log in? We'll just close the window instead.

I suppose I could try your Facebook page instead in a different Private Browsing window. Hmm, a whole 2 pages of past posts before it requires me to log in to view more. *closes window*

Sorry, I was interested, but not *that* interested. Here's wishing your new business the best of luck… 😕

To access Speech History:
Press INSERT + SPACE BAR, then press H on a desktop keyboard or CAPS LOCK + SPACE BAR on a laptop, then press H.

This will open a window showing up to the last 500 spoken messages.

Okay... curl.se/docs ... --location: redirects.

There are a lot of options, but most of them seem to only apply to the original operation, not to the location: target, but I can't tell if that is universal, or if there are exceptions.

Maybe --follow changes this, hard to tell. Like not clear at all if that affects anything but POST.

Also, options are highlighted, but not clickable in all places. Would be much easier to read if highlights linked to the right doc.
