At this point it feels like the only time I venture online anymore is because I'm angry about something, or delighted. I'm disappointed to say today I'm online and updating my blog because I'm angry about something. garden.errbufferoverfl.me/notebook/202...

At the risk of ruining Australian security professionals’ weekend: please spend 30 mins filling out the ACS CyberPath survey. surveyv8.humanlistening.com/survey/b330e... I don’t want mandatory accreditation. I suspect many of you don’t either. We should probably tell them.

Good news friends! After replacing the printer drums and some more tinkering (they had to pull the printer apart) it's working again! 😙🖨️💕 Thanks to everyone who helped cover the bill, it’s taken so much stress out of getting this bad boy back up and running.

A large office copier/printer sits partially disassembled in a room, with its front panels open, internal rollers and toner areas exposed, and tools and removed parts scattered on the carpet nearby.

Agree, their website provides little detail. ConnectID was accredited by the ACCC (the Digital ID regulator) last year see digital ID register link below. There is information on what is needed to achieve this accreditation here: www.digitalidsystem.gov.au/digital-id-a...

Hot take - even as a joke, I don't really like the idea of ppl blaming interns for taking down production Even on the chance it happened to be true (and there are definitely cases where it wasn't an intern), if an intern was able to do that, that's a problem with the processes and systems in place

This is probably one of the most pretentious things I will ever say about music but I think albums made with streaming in mind are inferior to albums made to listen to end to end. The sound and feeling they give is completely different and you can tell. There I said it. I won’t take it back.

Hiya, one of the local disableds here. While you're celebrating #Menulog closing down, remember: Woolies and Coles delivery is getting less reliable (at least where I am) and platforms like Doordash give me access to Aldi as well as ways to fix my weekly groceries when the orders are (very) wrong.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

I Want You to Understand Chicago
Politics Chicago
2025-11-08

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. “We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,” Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st.

Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Sho…

The problem with “AI Art” discourse is that you have to define what art is, which is a famously terrible thing to have to do, whatever you’re definition, you’re going to leave something on the table as something you see as being ok for AI to create, which, just, no.
