From URL to IRL, digital rights keep us safe from government and Big-Tech surveillance, as well as hackers and criminal threats.

Canonical working on #Ubuntu for the 'first RISC-V laptop'. How exciting. No price listed, or expected production volumes. Start the speculotron!
Expectation: $900 / 1000 units
Hope: $400 / 10000 units

@arrrg I think it's fair to assume @signalapp is secure?
@Datterich @alice @dougwade @catsalad wish I had Skein in this competition
@emilygorcenski author uses an 8 bit computer in 2024? Commodore or Spectrum lol
Author also has never apparently never heard of lossey compression or disaggregated storage (re: dollar drawing challenge)
I'd like to tell a quick story about successful troubleshooting.
A few months ago I rented a scissor lift to install lighting at my new office. When it arrived, the delivery person gave me a quick demo and off he went.
Well, when I went to actually use it - the lift went up by about a foot then stopped and screamed beeps of terror. It was broken!
But the display on the control read "18"
Rather than call the rental company, I searched "sinoboom fault code 18" to see what that meant.

There's a trans woman who I bumped into last year at OSHUG in Hendon Bridge, and again at #EMFcamp a couple of weeks ago. Annoyingly I am really bad at names so I can't for the life of me remember who she is.
So. You. We met at OSHUG. And at EMF. If that's you, I could use a chat.
@mediaarchaeologylab Thanks-- I had no idea that 8-track could provide power! This opens the door to a wifi-enabled 8-track cartridge.
@neil @decodedlegal even if your work blog is just your technical legal posts from time to time, that would allow people to filter out your puns and loud shirts :-)

It offers the upward redistribution of wealth we've been crying out for!
I mean, fuck me if I can find a single trash can on a train in Ireland. Meanwhile, in the Netherlands…
(Yes, I got a Starbucks coffee… it’s what they had at the station. Don’t you judge me!) :)

The only good thing that's definitely going to come of the July 4th election in the UK is that the Rwanda deportation policy is going to be cancelled on July 5th. It's as dead in the water as Labour's National Identity Register was in 2010, last time round: one of those zombie policies pushed by the Home Office that nobody in office wants to admit is toxic and dead on arrival.
