Interesting move, checkmate on the Russia smear campaign unless the U.S. (and NATO) decides to ditch Saudi Arabia as an ally. newsweek.com/russia-us-donald-

I'm a mountain biker, but I can appreciate BMX.

I really liked this video. If you're a biker, you'll probably like it as well. youtube.com/watch?v=UDZpsjtfYu

Governments world wide have no control over @wikileaks and that scares them, what scares me is the notion that all other news outlets are more or less controlled.

I don't know if Signal is completely safe. What if they were required to send out an update to the application that also transmitted data in cleartext to a third party. It would look exactly the same to the user.

As long as you don't have reproducible builds and there is no way for the community to verify that everybody is running the same code (using a separate process that is independent of the application vendor) this is incredibly difficult to guard against.

@loke Also, shameless plug for those who need something extra when the chat tools aren't sufficient: github.com/modrobert/SecureCha

@loke What I dislike about Signal is the phone number requirement, making sure they can pin the user metadata to a person even if messages are safe from decryption.

@loke I used to have one of these back in the 80s, what I would suspect is that they need recapping (replace electrolytic capacitors) by now due to the CRT tech used.

BTW: This looks interesting...

An Advanced SWR meter I built about a month ago. It calculates phase shift so can compute a complex impedance and complex SWR, something most meters cant do. Schematics included.
