The #OPLArchive is my project to preserve the history of DOS-based chiptune music in a central location, using the universal VGM file format. I'm trying to find and add as many songs as I can. Check it out at https://opl.wafflenet.com - You can even listen in your browser! #YM3812 #YMF262

You can learn how to use radius2 by checking the new repository collecting several usage examples! By @alkali https://github.com/aemmitt-ns/radius2-examples

In 2000, the Beatles created THEBEATLES.COM in relation to a new Beatles compilation album set, "1". For whatever reason, the legendary demoscene group MELON was hired to make flash animations for their songs. The results are now emulated at Internet Archive.

Warning: Flashing lights galore.

#libwebp 1.3.2 has two #security related flaws that have been fixed in main:
• Fix invalid incremental decoding check:
https://github.com/webmproject/libwebp/commit/95ea5226c870449522240ccff26f0b006037c520
• Fix next is invalid pointer when WebPSafeMalloc fails:
https://github.com/webmproject/libwebp/commit/dce8397fec159c9edfeec7c6388cb81428c87ed8

While these are not as easy to exploit as CVE-2023-4863 it seems evident that there has been some gaps in libwebp fuzzing at google. Also CVE-2023-4863 was obviously assigned to a wrong project. #infosec #vulnerabilities #cve

brutal first blood for cytrox on iOS 17, but also damn that's some clear cut misuse.

if this infosec stuff doesn't work i'll start an ice cream shop

100MHz FM transmitter from 1982, 25 Watts that we used for 3 months of non-licensed radio broadcast. A few coils in power amplifier are missing, and 2N6081/2N6082 (wrong marking) replaced the very expensive original BLY87/BLY89 (~$80-100 for a pair in those days!).

A while ago I tested #nostr and all i found was cryptobros and porn. Today it seems like the porn issue is under control and the feed seems nicer.

Clients got significant UI improvements, but still it feels a bit dangerous to post on a place where data spreads beyond author's control.

I managed to remove notes i published. But in theory all devs say this is UB. Considering there are tons of relays replicating and caching data, some users may still see it.

About this privacy topic it makes me think about the fact that we are not aware enough about all the data we give away and the false feeling of controlling it. Maybe being anonymous instead of having your real persona in this network is the way to go.. but still, i have mixed feelings with this interesting technology (yeah i like the protocol and it's simplicity)

Thoughs?
