The European Vulnerability Database (EUVD) is now fully operational, offering a streamlined platform to monitor critical and actively exploited security flaws amid the US struggles with budget cuts, delayed disclosures, and confusion around the future of its own tracking systems https://euvd.enisa.europa.eu/

Just gave a talk on the project I've been working for six months: Start Your Own Internet Resiliency Club

Short version: collect a group of networking experts in the same city, buy them all LoRa radios and power banks, install Meshtastic, and pick a channel to communicate on. If you lose all power and communications, you can communicate over LoRa to bootstrap the recovery of the real internet

So, I have managed to lock myself out of my own oven. It has been having trouble with temperature, occasionally overheating, so last night I decided to take out the temperature probe and test it to see if it is obviously the problem. It measured 1080 Ω, exactly what is expected at room temperature, so it is not likely the problem. While it was out, the oven fan came on, presumably because the open circuit made the oven think it was overheating. Unfortunately, in trying to shut off the fan, I managed to lock the oven door. Now it won't unlock, presumably because the temperature sensor is missing and its little electronic brain thinks it is too hot to open. So now it is just locked shut.

Help?

I suppose today is as good a day as any to announce this: after 13 years, I am no longer at Mozilla and I'm looking for my next thing.

25 years experience in web design and front-end dev (non-React). Mostly dev for the last decade (in a Python/Django environment), but my design roots mean I work well with designers. I'm especially interested in scaling design systems but I've done a LOT of "turn the mockup into a web page" work and I'm pretty good at it.

Ideally looking for fully remote but I'm open to a hybrid situation in the SF Bay Area, if the circumstances fit. Also looking for full time, but open to freelance/contract gigs as well.

I don't know what else to put here. Am I doing this right? Oh yeah, hashtags.

If you would like to star in an upcoming https://briefs.video, DM me an audio file of you shouting “<div>s!!!”

If I get enough submissions, I hope to create a gang vocal for a musical number...

Do I have to go on my rant again about Microsoft keep letting DWM get exploited in the wild and patch over it *after* MSTIC pull the exploit from an attacker or victim's PC? At least it's not Kaspersky this time, I guess.

This week, the chatterati -- Rory Stewart, Alastair Campbell, Guardian columnists and others -- are coming out and saying the #Israel may just possibly have gone a little too far with its #GazaGenocide. Give them another year, another fifty thousand deaths, and perhaps the BBC, and even the UK and German governments, will follow suit.

It's too little. It's too late. By denying condemnation until #Gaza has been reduced to a ruined charnel house, they are #Complicit.

Anyone have first-hand experience running #Linux on a recent #framework 13 (Intel or AMD doesn't matter much, I think, but do let me know) and using multiple #Thunderbolt (3) devices behind a Thunderbolt 4 hub (I was eyeing the CalDigit Thunderbolt 4 Element Universal Multi-Port Hub, but other first-hand accounts welcome)? I've been trawling the community forums but to no avail.

For now I only have hardware with a TB3 port so I could only validate that the one device (a BlackMagic UltraStudio Recorder 3G, if you must ask) works under Linux. I guess experience on recent laptop hardware under similar conditions would be useful too (one TB4 port, one TB4 hub, multiple TB3 devices).

Plugging the devices on different ports would certainly work (my usecase only requires 2 devices), but using the hub as a power source for both the laptop and the attached devices seems like a compelling combination to me.

Okay, #retrogaming #retroverse, do your magic - I need your help.

Supposedly, there's an Italian translation of the game "Masters of the Elements".

UPDATE: THE HUNT IS OVER, thanks to @geoffl who found the original title AND A SITE WHERE IT WAS AVAILABLE TO BUY!

It is called "I Signori degli Elementi" and was published by "Editori Riuniti Multimedia"

Thank you so much, and thanks to everyone helping to connect!

Here is a different wide angle projection of the selfie. Perseverance recently collected a new sample at a location named "Pine Pond", and the resulting drill hole is visible in front of the rover.

Perseverance also happened to catch a dust devil moving through the outer parts of Neretva Vallis.

Do you know what the Nakba is?

(Curious how common this knowledge is; poll results are anonymous.)

Please help find out how many people are aware, and reshare: If you’re a German national, please take one of the 🇩🇪 options. For everyone else, please use one of the other two. I can share more when the poll ends.
