For fucks sake don’t update the thing. Kill it while you can!

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

Meet Rayhunter: A New Open Source Tool from EFF to Detect Cellular Rayhunter is a new open source tool we’ve created that runs off an affordable mobile hotspot that we hope empowers everyone, regardless of technical skill, to help search out cell-site simulators

If you are going to a No Kings protest this weekend, be sure to review our Surveillance Self Defense guide for attending a protest and bring Rayhunter along for the ride! ssd.eff.org/module/atte.... eff.org/rayhunter.

I follow the competing strategy of adding almost every page I visit to a folder in my favorites that I never open.

A bookshop window with a sign in all caps. “FUCK SOCIAL MEDIA. MARRY BOOKS. KILL AI. “

They get me.

A Portland protestor in a frog costume holds a sign with two frogs holding hands. The sign says “Frogs together strong”.

Correcting a few misconceptions like that I make video propaganda for children (I don't! I check a box saying so!) and working through one of the greatest mysteries of our time: how to get inside a government building when the door is locked when you're the government who wants to go in there

A screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) from Greg Abbott (@GregAbbott_TX) dated October 5, 2025, with 1.2 million views. Abbott states he authorized the President to call up 400 members of the Texas National Guard to protect federal officials. He says the federal government should either enforce protections for federal employees or step aside and let the Texas Guard handle it, adding that no other Guard matches their training and skill. Abbott emphasizes their pride in defending the country and notes that Texas still has thousands of Guard members assisting with border security. Below his post is a reply from Governor JB Pritzker (@GovPritzker) from eight hours earlier, saying President Trump is ordering 400 Texas National Guard members to deploy to Illinois, Oregon, and other U.S. locations, and that no federal officials contacted him directly to discuss or coordinate.

Federally sponsored terrorist organizations (ICE et al.) are now invading US cities any time MAGA gets their feel bads activated. Once there they mask up and assault citizens and others alike with impunity.

At what point do we move to this being an all out civil war?

A Minecraft map showing the excavated undersea temple.

Screenshot of the temple from the side of the excavation wall. The temple is made from varying shades of bright green blocks of prismarine.

As a Covid project my wife and I began excavating an undersea temple in survival Minecraft using a glass wall perimeter and displacing the water with sand then removing it. Still some cleanup left, but the excavation is now nearing completion, proving that we are insane.

AI ‘Workslop’ Is Killing Productivity and Making Workers Miserable AI slop is taking over workplaces. Workers said that they thought of their colleagues who filed low-quality AI work as "less creative, capable, and reliable than they did before receiving the output."

A new study, based on a survey of 1,150 workers suggests that the injection of AI tools into the workplace has not resulted in a magic productivity boom and instead increased the amount of time that workers say they spend fixing low-quality AI-generated “work.”

I put CtF/challenge coin stuff under a “rewards and recognition” section. Definitely not something that belongs in “employment exp”.

I think *Con volunteering (goon,village,other) shows community participation and “soft skill” development, but that goes in its own section also.

Just got my invite back to the DC NetWars tournament. I keep telling myself the odds are low I can keep qualifying every year, but while I’ve got this streak going this is becoming one of my favorite annual events.

The meme depicts an ozone molecule talking to his son, which he named after the Montreal Protocol of 1987 and the Kigali amendment of 2016, which reversed the perilous decline of ozone in the stratosphere

My cat is insane.

Silksong has been out for less than a week. If you are already complaining that it’s too hard maybe try something more your speed? Like Candyland? Seriously - if you could waltz through it, it wouldn’t be worth playing. Hollow Knight was also this hard at first.

Screenshot of two tweets from Matt Walsh’s verified Twitter account (@MattWalshBlog). First tweet (17 hours ago): “It’s time to have a national conversation about common sense restrictions on transgenders.” The tweet has 1.3K comments, 3.8K retweets, 42K likes, and 1M views. Second tweet (18 hours ago): “It wasn’t all that long ago that anyone who identified as the opposite sex would be involuntarily committed to an insane asylum. Does anyone at this point seriously think that our current approach is an improvement?” The tweet has 666 comments, 1.9K retweets, 21K likes, and 362K views.

First tweet is by Michael Knowles (@michaeljknowles), reposted by Christopher F. Rufo. It reads: “For the good of society and especially for the good of the poor people who have fallen prey to this delusion, transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely—the whole preposterous ideology, at every level.” The tweet has 816 comments, 2.4K retweets, 17K likes, and 379K views. Second tweet is by Christopher F. Rufo (@realchrisrufo), 20 hours ago: “The trans cult hatched such an enormous propaganda campaign, that, for a number of years, they were able to obscure an obvious truth: pumping kids full of synthetic hormones, while telling them they can change from boy to girl, will only end in tragedy or disaster.” The tweet has 878 comments, 1.5K retweets, 9.2K likes, and 120K views. Third tweet is also by Christopher F. Rufo, 20 hours ago: “We should now put to rest the libertarian delusion that transgenderism is a matter of ‘personal choice,’ or ‘live and let live.’ It’s an ideology that has done grave damage to millions of Americans, and has unleashed a nihilistic wave of violence on our society. Enough.” The tweet has 921 comments, 1.5K retweets, 9.6K likes, and 293K views.

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people.

These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.

wild how people want to get rid of autistic trans people and think that the Internet would still work

Broadcom ruined Carbon Black and dealt a death blow to VMware, and all through the process they made absolutely clear that they viewed 90% or more of their customers as disposable and barely worth acknowledging.

They can fuck right the fuck off.

The alt text is missing so putting it here:

Q: Just curious where you stand on Lgbtqia+ rights and freedoms.

A (Graham Platner): I stand right in the fucking way of anyone who's going to try to come after the freedoms of the
LGBTQIA+ community.

This is what a winning Democrat platform could look like.
