I don't usually post horror content but here goes.

Also @fedora.fosstodon.org.ap.brid.gy why are the kernel images so large? Is it normal for the rescue initramfs to take up nearly 300MB and the average kernal initramfs image to be well over 100MB?

@cloudflare.social come on, it would be hilarious. What's a few tens of millions of dollars in the face of possibly the best joke in the history of the internet?

Microsoft Azure cloud service hit with outage Microsoft says users of its Azure cloud portal may be not be able to access Office 365, Minecraft or other services due to issues with its global content delivery network services.

So, I guess it's Google or Cloudflare's turn to have a massive DNS related issue next now that AWS and Azure have had thier turns

Man, the NY post have some really odd white people (or I'm not white enough to understand them) because I have "aunts" and "uncles" who aren't even related by blood to me at all...

Once again the headline "Zohran is already getting criminals out of NYC" would be applicable.

Turns out most voters just want you to talk with them, to listen to thier concerns, and not belittle them. The Democratic party regularly fails at this.

Well, you all certainly had more excitement from Maga than we did up here, but it also looks like we had a larger crowd so that probably helped.

And just a $50k bond? For menacing people with a deadly weapon? That's not a lot.

"KNOW YOUR PROTEST RIGHTS
You don’t need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don’t need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you’re not obstructing traffic or access to buildings.
When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police.
If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries.
If you get stopped by the police, ask if you’re free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away.
If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don’t sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present.
If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney β€” no matter your citizenship or immigration status."

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.

Electronic Frontier Foundation (@eff@mastodon.social) We haven’t found evidence of Stingrays being used at protests in the US yet, but if you’re going to a No Kings protest this weekend, why not bring Rayhunter to be sure? Don’t forget to charge and upda...

As a friendly reminder to everyone protesting today: your phones are likely safe from the more invasive tracking methods. All you should worry about is celebrating with your comrades and minding what photos you take (record the cops at ever opportunity).

If you feel the absolute need to have surveillance cameras up on your house, make sure you own your own data and can tell the cops to take a hike if they dont have a subpoena.

@ubiquiti.bsky.social is on my shortlist for replacing your ring cameras.

I think we need to tax them more. Hell, with the amount of money these people are throwing at this, Mamrandi might need to increase the planned amount for the new tax brackets because they clearly have plenty of money to burn.

I'm using @tailscale.com to access my home network abroad and self host services and I'm using @proton.me and @mullvad.bsky.social for getting around geoblocks.

If you count @torproject.bsky.social, I also use that when I want anonymity

Its my favorite time of year on YouTube. When @defcon.bsky.social drops all the videos from the most recent conference within like a week.

Its extremely useful to reset my algorithm by just binging all the talks I couldn't go to.

Yeh Nvidia'a drivers are getting better but still suck and as for codec support for your camera files, you could try handbrake first, I have yet to personally find a file format ffmpeg couldn't rip apart but I also lack some of the more esoteric hardware to test.

Can't help you on the DAW situation with your plugins, but if you get used to DaVinci Resolve (or learn KDEnlive) you could absolutely edit video on Linux.

The Adobe suite lock-in is real though and most of us understand.

A Kara Update and a Request for Advice
YouTube video by DeviantOllam A Kara Update and a Request for Advice

Not an easy watch/listen, but important new video from @deviantollam.bsky.social about the way a disabled trans prisoner has been abused and deprived of rights in federal prison. There's both a request for legal help/advice, but also a way to send letters to Kara to try to help her morale.

Also @deviantollam.bsky.social I've passed this along to a few of my friends who do civil rights law in hopes that they have someone in thier network who can help. I'm on the wrong side of the country for Kara but lawyer networks are odd and maybe someone knows someone.
