Not much to say about #AMD outside of that huge gap up after #NVDA earnings. Wow. 📈

Options data is likely going to be messy on AMD today and tomorrow as people take profits and contracts get assigned.

Dark pool sentiment for #AMD is still positive and the biggest dark pool level for the moment is $107.46 (by a lot).

Some bearish dark pool trades came through last night for AMD and NVDA, so exercise caution playing here at the top. Many traders will want to take profits, some will get greedy, and AI is uncharted territory.

The market will likely pick winners in the AI race and will likely pick them violently. Just don't find yourself without a chair when the music stops.

Not financial advice. Do your homework.

TIL that "spool" as used in "print spooler" is an acronym that stands for "Simultaneous Peripheral Operations On Line". Image is an excerpt from Inside AppleTalk, Second Edition, page 14-3.

Although there may be some disagreement: is it a backronym? (Missing verification.) See the Wikipedia page for more. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spooling

*Edited to include backronym reference from Wikipedia page.

I almost didn't believe it... but I found this description in an IBM document from 1966. (source: archive.org/details/bitsavers_…)

According to a new report from Secureworks, endpoint attack vectors that include email, popular operating systems, and apps are on the rise.

In response to attacks by way of Android apps, Google has removed thousands of nefarious apps that had the capability to launch malware enabling developers to launch a wide array of attacks including Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, Man-in-the-Middle (MitM), and Ransomware attacks.

I think we need to be more precise with statements such as "support intrusive apps".

This is true in case where those apps are preinstalled by vendor with no possibility to remove. Also the whole GMS case.

The fact that it's nearly impossible to buy phone without built-in telemetry scares me.

Just keep in mind that community based #lineageos and #DivestOS are Android but doesn't include or support this crap.

Thank you for effort you put into mobile Linux development!

The Podcast Show London 2023 is now over. 😭
But as a grande finale, I was lucky enough to attend a terrific live podcast recording. 🎙️🎭
Can you guess which one?!
Hint: it's about PODcasting, it brings NEWS, it's WEEKLY and it REVIEWs everything you need to know.
Oh and it's hosted by the brilliant @james & @samsethi.

So, if you're running #microsoft #edge and you've been wondering why all of a sudden web links you paste into slack are broken as all get out, this is why:

I let my cats explore my desk as they wish, except when they step on a keyboard or something. Then I gently grab them and pull them away. This has lead to a situation where they now know not to step on them, and are pretty good at avoiding stepping on things... unless they want my attention. Then they will systematically go through every steppable thing until they find the one that makes the most noise and keep doing it until I stop what I'm doing. They know. There's no other explanation. I refuse to believe anything else.

I think for my sanity I'll just block the whole damn pointless and stupid domain in #PiHole directly so I don't have to even think about it. the dot zip domain is literally one of the most incompetent tld's I have ever heard about and it only gets worse. youtu.be/V82lHNsSPww

I need to repeat that number, it's too nice:

1,111 apps available now in my repo at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid :awesome:

(next such number means doubling the amount, which will take some™ time 🙈)
