@bsky.app why do you require age verification for accounts not in locations that require it?

WRCCDC just finished and it was a ton of fun! The scenario was based on SCP and Control (video game) and teams had to deal with securing their servers and stopping anomalies from escaping!
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told senators heβd apologize if data showed vaccines donβt cause autism.
Scientists worldwide have spent two decades researching this, and the result is clear: vaccines do not cause autism. Instead, he cited a flawed study.

I feel for everyone affected by the fires in LA and with all the fires burning right now "Los Angeles is Burning" is trending again. Good time to remember the song isn't actually about fires and probably more relevant then ever.
I stumbled upon your project - awesome stuff! Wanted to reach out, I have been working on something similar fully solar powered and thought it might be interesting to share notes. To optimize solar power, I have been utilizing a central node to do processing.
Periodically I open up X, and then just close it again. Unchecked hate and disinformation just does not make a good platform. Then again it's also burned me out of social media so there's that.
We are excited to announce the rankings for the second WRCCDC Invitational competition of the 2024-2025 Season!
Congratulations to UCF for 1st place, Liberty University for 2nd place, and UT at Austin for 3rd place. Great work all the teams who participated and hope to see you back for January!
This is a very interesting research poll showing that X is the majority of influencer based news. It looks like buying Twitter helped drive a lot of what we're seeing happen with this election and probably beyond. Hopefully BlueSky can pick up momentum even more. www.pewresearch.org/journalism/2...
Been working on some really cool things related to GenAI and competitions. Hoping to be able to share it all soon!
Not only are fires burning across the country (and world) regularly now, fires are happening in times that were previously wet and safe from burning. www.vox.com/climate/3843...
After every command you have to leave a tip, hopefully a reasonable tip too!
I've made a simple helper to allow you to tip your favorite commands and thank them for returning output. github.com/spiceywasabi...
Anyone have any idea of the legal implications of employees of IBM pushing Apache2 license onto projects? Thousands of repos have had an automated message suggesting a license change. Even empty repos are even getting hit: github.com/B00TK1D/qisk.... Full List here: tinyurl.com/3ba4b6j4.
Extremely grateful that @bsideslv.org has a masking policy. Being immunocompromised or struggling in any other way makes things challenging, and having a little protection and piece of mind is a huge thing. Thank you! One of the only conferences I plan to do this year.
Let me get this straight.. Android Wallet became Google Wallet which became Android Pay which became Google Pay which is now becoming Google Wallet?
How come every modern error-correcting file system actually has corruption bugs or risks? BRTFS and ZFS both have issues. Is there a truly reliable error-correcting file system right now?
Is there an app like hootsuite that lets you use all the modern social platforms? Twitter/X, bsky.app, Mastodon, Facebook, Threads, etc? I want to just publish a single post to everything for @wrccdc.org
Looking up the curl CVE and I find this, pretty sure its the same guy. I'm glad bug bounties exist now even if not perfect, help protect people from making mistakes and companies from going after researchers.
Its hard to believe how long ago 2020 was, I still have all my early-pandemic projects unfinished π
Security aspects aside, smart homes are such a weird combination of brittle components all barely working together
Having so much fun watching Twitter rate limit its self to death
Remember when Google used to make reasonable ads and every ad blocker excluded them? Now they're going to join the rest in blocking people who have ad blockers. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/technology/youtube-tests-restricting-ad-blocker-users-to-3-video-views/
The meeting equivalent of "roll for initiative"
Its so much fun signing into 10 social media apps now to get updates
Crazy "hacks" on Instagram and TikTok aren't always what they seem. For example, the Smarter meter hacked by a FlipperZero. Except it wasn't. Check out Hash who does a great discussion https://youtu.be/QmNAA2bVo4Q

Apparently Reddit is protesting Reddit API Changes by taking its self down
The year is 2023 and banks still only offer SMS verification π«
This issue is so amazing. Starts as a vulnerability report, goes into misuse by a vendor to charge for a cert via acme.sh and then when it all gets discovered the "CA" just shuts down and threatens people.
Enjoy the ride
