Sp I wrote a pretty lengthy blog post entitled:

# Eugen Rochko, CEO of Mastodon, Found to Support Nazi's Agenda

Sadly I wish it was clickbait.

You can all read it here:

It is the pinnacle of the recent drama. I will also be sharing it on twitter, linking the joinmastodon account there. I tried to include most of the evidence in the article. Hopefully this will have some positive result

Good morning all. Would love to hear from people doing (and posting about) applied #cryptography out in the world. Yes, that includes cryptocurrencies as long as the work is interesting.

I finally managed to get modem emulation working on the C64 core in the Mister. I have now enjoyed myself by logging in to C64 BBS'es.

Some people would say it's a waste of time. I on the other hand found it incredibly relaxing, and the first time in a very long time that I have just enjoyed myself in front of a computer without distractions.

I found a vulnerability that allowed me to unlock any @Google@Twitter.com Pixel phone without knowing the passcode. This may be my most impactful bug so far.

Google fixed the issue in the November 5, 2022 security patch. Update your devices!

In light of another exchange meltdown, "Not your keys, Not your coins" is again relevant.

Self-custody is hard to do. So for 48 hrs only, my "Path to Self Custody" workshop is 75% off (with code selfcustody4me) to help people take ownership of their keys

Very happy about this.

Yes indeed, always 2 sides to a story.
