Hoy aprendí que #Lula da Silva se mochó el meñique izquierdo a los 17 trabajando en una fábrica de tornillos. Me pregunto por qué nunca intentaron darle una prótesis de algún tipo, digo, ha sido presidente durante años, alguito de dinero ha de tener para operarse o algo

En un momento en el que las tecnológicas están que se pelan por rasurar el Amazonas para poner centros de datos y que se friegue el resto con el cambio climático, es agradable saber que #Brasil logró comprar cuatro años más de tiempo para el planeta.

I wonder, is it technically possible to add an applet to a modded #3DS that tracks #RetroAchievements in original hardware? Or is the overhead too much?

If anything, this week probably taught many IT teams about the importance of enabling unattended upgrades for at least security patches. Hopefully.

Nice to see #YunoHost being widespread enough (at least on the Fediverse) to end up as a trending hashtag after the #PHP2Shell incident. Thanks for being so proactive, @YunoHost and of course @ondrej@mastodon.rfc1925.org for patching PHP so fast.

Talking about PHP, my birthday, and bugs: there seems to be a bug on #Nextcloud where the congratulations for your birthday come up only the day before the birthday. I chalked it up to UTC versus local time differences but nope!

Today's my birthday! So, a local business sent me a congratulation message via email, as usual. Only problem is, the picture is hosted on their WordPress and GUESS WHAT HAPPENED TODAY so it links to a site currently down for maintenance. #PHP2Shell

Today I learned InfoSec's acronym for "did this exploit actually hit me while I was asleep?" is IoC (Indicators of Compromise) and I'm currently searching for those on the #PHP2Shell case. Because it turns out it might have been actively exploited all the way since JUNE!

Nearly every blog and wiki out there: shutting down for the day because of the still unpatched #PHP2Shell vulnerability Me, with #Friendica and #Nextcloud still up for the time being: with one eye on htop and the other hammering apt update, hoping my single-user server is irrelevant enough

"m th ghst f bd spllng" The mysterious ghost spoke to me by making bloody letters appear on the wall. It took me a moment to work out what it was saying... "The ghost of bad spelling? My God, what happened to you?" "ws dsnvwld!" The letters said... and true, she had been disenvoweled!

All the editors of Elsevier's 𝘎𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘉𝘦𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘳 just resigned in protest at Elsevier's firing of one editor and attempt to hire new editors without involving the current board.

I agree that imperial units are silly and we should probably run on metric for lots of practical reason. But you gotta admit that they're a fun discussion prompt for trivia; everybody thinks there's an internal logic but it's just all weird history! For example nobody's gonna believe that it's […]
