It annoys me when I see people use the phrase "Cyber 9/11" or "Cyber Pearl Harbour". Its disrespectful to those who died or were injured in these real events and also reeks of the FUD factor, something we need to move away from in cybersecurity. Cyberrisks are real without sensationalising them

Thanks! We're on the boat.

Given I'm en-route to the port, and it's supposed to depart in 260 mins, I really hope so!

Save the EU Ad Libraries Meta may soon switch off ad libraries in the EU and remove data going back to 2018. Help ensure this data is archived for research.

Google just wiped EU data from its political ad library. Meta’s ban on political ads in the EU starts soon and we're worried they might do the same.

We need a backup of the EU Meta Ad Library now. If you have data (2018–present) or skills to help, let us know:

Can anybody help me? I seem to have misplaced September.

My favourite thing about this (old) Reddit thread about how to respectfully store your flag was the 100+ photos in the replies of people’s flags, shoved in crumpled Albert Heijn carrier bags and chucked in junk-filled cupboards.

I know @jesslynnrose.bsky.social has spent time there, and maybe knows some folks.

In early 2025, beaver activity in the Brdy Protected Landscape Area, Czech Republic, contributed to the restoration of a wetland ecosystem. A family of beavers constructed a series of dams that coincidentally accomplished environmental goals of the Czech government, which had delayed its proposed project since 2018 for bureaucratic and financial reasons. The beaver-built dams saved the Czech government approximately US$1.2 million,

imagine if a family of beavers randomly showed up right now and finished whatever thing you've been putting off

Have a great time! I only managed to go in 2017, hope to return one day.

There are 1, possibly 2 acceptable forms. A Terry's chocolate orange. At a push, Matchsticks.

Don’t forget that a decent amount of online political discourse is manufactured by bots purpose-built to start arguments.

Hope the rest of the journey went well!

Word of the Day is ‘snerdle’ (19th century): to stay warm and still beneath the covers for as long as humanly possible.

It's a shame Nelson's outdoor pool closed.

Blue Team Con has a sober board game room with mocktails at the same time as the big party for people who don’t want to be around loud music or alcohol! 🤩

Why doesn’t every con do this?

Sad to be missing @orangecon.nl
and seeing @drazuread.com @DidierStevens@infosec.exchange and many other lovely folks I haven't seen IRL for a v long time.

Really pleased for you, but a little envious too.
Need to sort my health out and then can try to be social.

Glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.
But HOW MUCH?!
The aubergine version looks more normal.

Watched something on Prime yesterday (DE sub, but in NL), they have turned on ads, have to pay an additional fee to have them removed.
I'd heard this happened in the UK, but didn't think they'd do it in Europe.
