Make the net weird again. Hand write sites like it’s the 90s. Pick interesting domain names and make fan sites or random knowledge known to everyone. Don’t monetize anything. Spearhead new protocols like Gemini. Make mods for games on your site. Make FAQs for obscure games no one knows about. Make public software services available to anyone. Make a news site about a really random subject. Create music in all kinds of different formats. Most of all, do it because you want to!

@alshafei And Elon Musk just pledged to give $45 million a month to Trump #superPAC , so you know that means any and all #privacy laws will get vetoed by Trump if he wins.
Voting for Trump means #TechBros will make sure #SurveillanceCapitalism is here to stay
@fifilamoura Ah. Thank you for sharing. Makes more sense that she's a cult member.
It is the "I do not test on older devices but my web developer has the newest multicore multigig machine but I do not test on older hardware .... beeecause I can analyze the performance of my animation-overloaded website by measuring their CPU temperature" mindset.
It's a shithole based on perspective.

" *Long-lived access tokens* are valid for 10 years. These are useful for integrating with third-party APIs and webhook-style integrations. "
Is this a good idea from #security perspecitve? I do not think so, but what is a better way?
Probably we need a standardized #API endpoint e.g. "renew-token" (like auto discovery)
Just for kicks, I set up a VNC listener (not a full-blown honeypot) on port 5900. For a whole ight, it was hit only 3 times and these were just scans - not login attempts. Probably not worth the bother to make a real honeypot for it.
What about the rest? According to Greynoise, all of them except Oracle get practically no attacks - but maybe I'm using Graynoise's service incorrectly.
Maybe I should set up a simple listener for Oracle connections and see if it gets anything meaningful overnight...
This article on the birth of planned obsolescence is worth a glimpse

The best thing with Vanilla Music App is that it allows browsing through a directory (folder) on the file system.
That is missing in all other players that I've tried.
Nuff said.

Vanilla Music player
**Note:** As of 23. Jun 2024, Vanilla Music is *no longer* available in the Google Play store:
I simply don't have time to comply with random policy changes and verification requests.
Any release you see there is probably an ad-infested fork uploaded by someone else.
