Found this today:
Needl :

What it does is it creates traffic that is ment to look like real user traffic so that it makes finding your "real" traffic a lot harder.
Interesting idea, though I am not sure how effective it would really be.
Systemd has a bug where user names starting with a digit cause the user daemon to run with root privileges. According to the creator of systemd, this is not a bug and everything is fine. The reason everything is fine is because names like this, which are explicitly permitted by the base standards, are forbidden and tools shouldn't allow creating these names, so it's a bug in the tools for permitting names permitted by the standard.
Fsck systemd.
@yetitaxxi if you are curious you can query uber.floripa.br on any whois tool
@yetitaxxi my country TLD requires exposing a document (something that assembles SSN on US) on whois so we're kinda fucked
If a TLD doesn't offer WHOIS protection, is a PO Box high on the scale of importance?
On the other hand, are there any decent WHOIS protection services that aren't strictly integration-based?
So I maay have just bought cybr.es

Finished a four-point story in less than one today... No longer have to work the weekend. Huzzah.
So instead I'll be watching a lot of Arrested Development and working on August Offensive. Huzzah!
It seems like the BSD projects are mostly hindered by the speed of the porting teams. Projects like DragonflyBSD and TrueOS have some interesting technology behind them but lack either the simple or the modern front end to handle the expectations of modern users.
Once Plasma gets ported I'll probably try to jump to TrueOS as my daily driver. I'm sticking with Manjaro in the meantime.
Someone go start a cell phone carrier that bundles exactly one carrier app on every phone they sell: a personal oauth2 provider app.
I'm waiting.

@evenorbert the best programmers I've know prefer to spend the majority of their time away from computers.
I found this bizarre when I was young, but now I'm the same way.
Most of my programming happens in my head, preferably somewhere outside, and I only use a computer for data entry and debugging.
After working this month as a software developer, I feel like any problem can be solved with a bit of abstract thinking.
Next month, I expect to learn how wrong I am
Any machine is a smoke machine if you operate it wrong enough.
Proposing a new #LibreMonday recurring #hashtag. Who's in?
The idea: #showcase free/libre and open source source (#FLOSS) projects that you like, giving a screenshot and basic information + links.
This should help many of us #Mastodon users discover hidden gems of the #FreeSoftware ecosystem.
Please boost 🍍 and give it a go!
Oo, Mastodon has a account deletion feature now. I feel like I can safely recommend it to all my friends
you can't skip leg day. you can hear them in the distance, thundering just over the horizon. the legs are coming
