There is already a Knightmare game, and it was actually good: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knightm...

Visiting Elizabeth Holmes in prison to ask what her Aella number is

RIP Mass Effect thank you for introducing me to lesbians

Cannot wait for the fucking discourse on responsible disclosure tomorrow

Pleased to report that I have no PHP

Phreak: "Alright, what are the three most commonly used private keys?" Joey: "156, 115, 55. But not in that order, necessarily, right?" Cereal: "Yeah but don't forget 4. System operators love to use 4. It's that whole male ego thing."

Elon absolutely seething that none of the keys were 69 or 420

If you are interested in poking at traffic generated by IoT devices, today would be a good day to ensure that automatic firmware updates are turned off

got tickets to see the new documentary on american tropical birds, a look at the jungle from their view, Tucans See Everything

Instead of telling my friends about my experience watching You Can See Everything, I will hire an actor that looks like me to recreate the experience of me watching it so I can show them.

It's been out for a couple of days so I don't think this is a spoiler, but: fuck finding out that Nathan Fielder was dead the entire time was a mindfuck

I wrote another blog post! This one is about why Epic's new Linux anti-cheat approach doesn't seem like it'd deter any enthusiastic cheaters: codon.org.uk/~mjg59/blog/...

New blog post! Yet another attempt to implement secure hibernation on Linux when lockdown is enabled: codon.org.uk/~mjg59/blog/...

everyones mad at this gruber guy for writing about how much he loves twitter. personally i think its way worse than he once stormed an entire office building and killed a bunch of people in pursuit of millions in untraceable bearer bonds. on christmas eve, no less

Everyone showing up after the location was revealed:

Everything really went sideways fast for him after that.

he had to get a new shell and everything, smh

"They doxxed the Prodigy crab" is something that will forever live in my brain

I hope the well finds you, email

Trump accidentally handing over regulation of AI to the International Bureau of Weights and Measurements

Like yes I know *and also* "our legal tender"? BoE notes aren't legal tender in Scotland or Northern Ireland, but, alas, English MPs

In C23 variables have pronouns and misgendering is undefined behavior. And no you can't just always use they, smartass. It literally won't compile

San Francisco is the kind of place where "Standard Deviant" is a brewery whose products are widely available, the idea that you need to be involved in some rationalist kink scene to avoid being called creepy is utterly bizarre

The worst thing about reading LLM-generated design docs is that I need to look at every single requirement and think "But is this actually a requirement", and the second worst thing is that me being able to smash out a 15 page design doc by hand in a couple of hours is no longer notable

nothing is better than buying a shirt on a whim, completely forgetting you did it, and having it show up a week later

The kind of day where my AirBnB cancelled after check-in time, and then after 4 hours support let me re-book somewhere else that promptly then also cancelled but I do now have a bed in London hurrah hurrah

That's quite a welcome, London

Spent the day wandering around European airports followed by a weird buzzing noise and finally figured out that something was pressing against my toothbrush's power button and I'm not a victim of Havana Syndrome

The Prague metro has these clocks that zero when a train leaves and then count up. At a guess this is to make headway regulation easier (a train behind a delayed train can wait until there's a reasonable gap before leaving), but anyone know for sure? There's a separate countdown for incoming trains.

It is by no means the most upsetting part of the whole EA AI disaster scene but I am now not able to think about the CNCF without expanding it incorrectly
