Both of the November 2025 patches have been provided in our regular non-security-preview releases for over a month, so we've already had the 2025-11-05 Android security patch level for over a month. Our patch level is set based on providing both the Android and Pixel security patches, so we're leaving it at 2025-11-01 until the Pixel stock OS release and Pixel Update Bulletin are published. The stock Pixel OS also included both November 2025 patches in early September. We expect they made a 2nd October release to ship the November carrier changes and will make a release in mid-November with patches from future Android Security Bulletins.

Changes since the 2025102800 release:
All of the Android 16 security patches from the December 2025, January 2026, February 2026 and March 2026 Android Security Bulletins are included in the 2025110601 security preview release. List of additional fixed CVEs:
2025110601 provides at least the full 2025-12-01 Android security patch level (a Pixel Update Bulletin for November 2025 hasn't been released could have fixes we don't get early, although it's likely empty) but will remain marked as providing 2025-11-01.
For detailed information on security preview releases, see our post about it.

Changes in version 142.0.7444.138.0:
A full list of changes from the previous release (version 142.0.7444.48.0) is available through the Git commit log between the releases.
This update is available to GrapheneOS users via our app repository and will also be bundled into the next OS release. Vanadium isn't yet officially available for users outside GrapheneOS, although we plan to do that eventually. It won't be able to provide the WebView outside GrapheneOS and will have missing hardening and other features.
Privacy and security enhanced releases of Chromium for GrapheneOS. Vanadium provides the WebView and standard user-facing browser on GrapheneOS. It depends on hardening in other GrapheneOS reposito...GitHub

There's also something in there called Treble and I found a user agent string it uses with curl: TREBLE/2.1
"Two headlines from yesterday (Nov. 6):
'Musk Could Become World’s First Trillionaire in New Tesla Pay Package'
'SNAP Recipients Go Without Food After Benefits Don’t Arrive'
And there is the moral rot of our capitalistic empire. A trillionaire shouldn’t exist, especially in a world where children are starving."

Dog owners should be subject to strict inspections and recurring training to ensure they have the necessary time, skills, and dedication to own such an animal. Dog attacks and bites are stupidly common, and they really shouldn't be. I can barely fart without a permit and three licenses, but any fucking idiot can get a dog, neglect it, and have it bite a toddler - and then the dog gets blamed and put down. Insanity.
This is most likely my most controversial take.
it's easier than that: give certain animals some legal rights, then it's just straight up illegal to neglect them and let them become feral monsters
nobody wants to do this though, because once we start there we end up doing things like giving other non-humans rights like rivers and lakes and then capitalism has a stroke over it
Fun idea:
In the midst of all the American chaos, let's eliminate seven digit dialing in every market that still has it, and allow phone numbers to start with 1 and 0.
well sure but also Obama doing a drone strike on a wedding isn't that terribly different
we need a better way of reigning in this kind of abuse of power
Today in 1994, 31 years ago: WXYC, the student radio station of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, launches the world's first internet radio broadcast.
Have you ever booted a zip archive? I was doing my regular computing shenanigans, and then it dawned on me that a floppy image can be a valid ZIP archive. That's because the boot sector and the FAT table are at the beginning of the file, and the ZIP file header is at the end of it. The trick was used in the past for something called "rarjpeg" (a JPEG image that is a valid RAR file).
I needed a test fast, so I took @nanochess's bootBASIC, and created a file that has the bootsector at the beginning, then 701709 bytes of padding, and then 25159 bytes of ZIP file with the bootBASIC sources.
It can be unzipped by your favourite archiver, or booted in your favourite emulator ( qemu-system-i386 -fda bootableBASIC.zip)
The file: drive.google.com/file/d/1JQgBS…
Peter Vágner reshared this.
I found possibly the darkest humor ever in a physics text. The first chapter of "States of Matter" by David Goldstein begins:
"Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand. Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on the work, died similarly in 1933. Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics."
Hello @Friendica Developers ..
It seems, my search doesn't work after installing new because of changed Linux Distro.
edit: not "installing new".. I imported the backup of the database, etc.. and copied my friendica folder to the server etc..
If I search this string: https://mastodon.online/@amicalucis/115406224193886465
I get a page not found error:
Exception thrown in /usr/share/nginx/boerdica/src/Module/HTTPException/PageNotFound.php:35

\#5 {main}@memo, a hashtag like #tree or a group like !friendica..The friendica log shows nothing for this error.. Only the usual memory limit errors, all the time..
Does somebody have an idea?
Thanks

I've said it before, but it's disappointing when small things let down the #accessibility of an otherwise good interface.
For instance, I've told many people that the Tailscale web UI is actually quite good with a #screenReader. Unfortunately, the first thing an NVDA user hears after authenticating is a bunch of nonsense caused by an unlabelled SVG, and it doesn't create the best first impression:

По совету @abera80486 перешёл с пены для бритья на мыло для бритья. Взял мыло Proraso, лезвия Feather. Иии... сразу испортил себе впечатление порезами и раздражением. Но потом вернулся к копеечным лезвиям Спутник, и всё стало хорошо.
Теперь порезы случаются крайне редко, и кожа морды лица не раздражается. Да и баночки с мылом, кажется, хватит очень надолго - разровнял мыло ложкой перед первым использованием, чтобы легче было елозить помазком, с тех пор его как будто меньше не становится. На моей азиатской физиономии волосня какая-то редкая и короткая, но если не бриться пару дней, становлюсь похожим на алкаша. Борода не успела вырасти, так уже первые седые волосы пошли, лол.
