🔴 Würde Malta 35 reiche europäische Touristen in einem sinkenden Boot zurücklassen? Gerade jetzt kreist unsere Seabird 1 über einem Schlauchboot in Seenot in der maltesischen Such- und Rettungszone. Retweetet diesen Beitrag - sie brauchen eine Rettung, jetzt!

Het gaat niet om energieopwekking, dat dat niet uitkan vs, renewable snappen ze echt zelf ook. Allerlei landen willen in het huidige tijdsgewricht zelf een bom. Of in ieder geval alles bij de hand hebben om snel een bom te kunnen hebben als het moet. En daarvoor moet je ook reactoren hebben.

As far as the billionaires are concerned, the notion of people that were not born wealthy going to law school is nothing but trouble. There's a reason they want education to be a privilege for the rich, and citizens like you are it.

Goed werk! En wel even een momentje als je je realiseert dat we het in 2026 kennelijk een "overdosis goed nieuws" vinden wanneer vrouwen in Europa dankzij donaties en dappere vrijwilligers weer veilig kunnen bevallen. Ik kan nog wel wat meer goed nieuws hebben, zeg maar... Zojuist gedoneerd.

The question is whether it will be live, either in front of a live audience or broadcast live. If so, plenty of reasons to still say no, but one can at least entertain the idea of saying yes.

It's where I post. Happily so far. Had some less-than-optimal experiences with Mastodon instance operators thinking they were God, which reminded me of FidoNet, which was a thing in the 1980s where the operators of nodes also felt they had to exert power over their users.

Being open about the intention to just might. It could also cause America to rally around the flag and decide that they are united in their imperialism after all. Which would suck, but would at least be clear. Might convince some holdout dumbass Europeans that they're not our allies anymore.

I don't understand why the Democrats don't just put an end to this madness and signal that they would give control over Greenland back to Denmark when they get the White House ... ... unless ... ... they wouldn't. It seems such an obvious follow-up question to ask.

People that complain about Europe not making enough of a fist towards the U.S. while not understanding that Europe needs a massive program, right now, to become U.S.-cloud-independent A.S.A.P. are dangerously stupid. YES, I KNOW IT WILL BE DIFFICULT, BUT THE ALTERNATIVE SUCKS MUCH HARDER.

Iran has an actual real-world need for citizen-built wireless networks a-la Freifunk in Germany. I'm sure there's lots of experienced rooftop-yagi-people willing to consult setting that up. (Especially if they don't have to physically go there until after the revolution.)

Yeah, I read that. The GitHub repository below describes the symptoms. Starlink should and probably will switch to their own positioning independent of GPS: they have the more jamming-resistant constellation. See also navi.ion.org/content/72/1...

But for all we know they just allow TCP/179, right? (I mean, we're clearly past the era where governments were outright stupid about this stuff, but one never knows.)

Traffic is gone, but AS's stay visible. I'm not a routing guru, but to me this suggests they do not block BGP. Any routing experts want to weigh in? Does this mean Iranians could use lots of VPN endpoints and Tor bridges on TCP port 179? ioda.inetintel.cc.gatech.edu/country/IR?f...

A gunshot this close to a microphone could cause various things in the audio path between that microphone and this clip to behave in a wide variety of manners. This very much includes temporarily locking up the microphone's MEMS or membrane and codecs rejecting audio frames altogether.

No, on Mastodon, nodes get a preview. So it's not actual user interaction, it's message propagation to nodes where there's at least one follower. Or so I believe. I bet real large-following accounts are crashing self-hosted pages when they post a link.

Rop Gonggrijp @rop.gonggri.jp · 05/01/2026
Holy smokes. I posted something here. My messages get bridged to Mastodon, and one contained a link to my own server. And I just happened to be looking at my server logs. I'll tell you one thing: if Mastodon ever becomes another order of magnitude bigger, we won't need dDoS tools anymore.

Second time in a short period that there's sabotage to the power network here. The previous time, in September, was also quite a lucky hit: many homes dark, long time to repair.

Oddly however, the text seems to be machine-translated to German and contains many passages that one simply would phrase differently if one were a German speaker. And then there's the given names that are spelled in ways that make no sense. Unless you transliterate from Cyrillic.

45k households without power in Berlin: high-voltage cables firebombed where they crossed a canal. Will take almost a week to repair. The police quickly judged the radical-left claim letter to be "authentic"

Hmmmm, tough problem, I get it. Lemme think... Maybe you could give them badges and not have them wear full face-covering masks? Or have them behave more like law-enforcement and less like gangsters kidnapping regular people? Just floating some ideas here.

Dutch elections yesterday. Far-right got ~48 of 150 seats. Exit-polls put right-wing extremist PVV at 19 seats. The counted votes now indicate 26 seats. So to summarize the Dutch in 2025: one third nazis, and of those a quarter of the closeted variety. How's your day going?
