Adding a second ISP can provide resiliency and ensure a critical infrastructure stays connected even when 1 ISP fails.

I would be surprised if the White House didn’t already have such resiliency.

My speculation is they just want to avoid red tape and circumvent the restriction and strict access control applied to existing connections.

The devil’s in the details. And there aren’t much details in this article.

Our only options were to remove the extension or manage it.

The best option is of course to install another browser and remove chrome.

Today’s politics are in need for accountability, not just in the US.

Earlier this month, former french president Nicolas Sarkozy was sentenced to house arrest in a corruption case, and is now wearing an ankle monitor.

The judge made an exception allowing him to leave the house some days of the week, because he’s suspect in another case and need to attend court hearings.

He shoudn’t send DanSupp a cheque directly, but help him setup a non-profit or foundation for Pixelfed, then give that foundation a cheque.

Dan is doing a good job developing Pixelfed, but it looks like a one-man show, and that’s a bottleneck for the project.

No. This is no help if YouTube blocks your IP range. And it’s not a podcast feed.

Yes, but many YouTube channels don’t have a RSS podcast equivalent. YouTube is somewhat of a walled garden, like Spotify is.

I don’t know. My ISP doesn’t know. And I won’t bother interacting with Google’s non-existing support.

My solution is moving away from YouTube whenever possible, for instance subscripting to podcast instead when a creator has a podcast with the same content.

YouTube has blocked a bunch of IP ranges, including residential ones, forcing people to use an account to watch videos. So self-hosting isn’t an option for everyone.

No source is visible in the post. I don’t know if that’s an issue with my client, or an oversight.

Japan’s JPCERT released IOCs for MirrorFace malware earlier https://blogs.jpcert.or.jp/en/2024/07/mirrorface-attack-against-japanese-organisations.html

Kudos to them. Sharing IOCs and samples with other CERTs and vendors is important to protect others who may be targeted.

It’s going to make even more nurses run away, when many places are lacking nurses.

In addition to not connecting stuff unnecessarily, connected devices that consume/produce lots of power need safeguards.

Like a random 0-60sec timer for remote power on/off operations. 50000 panels powering down over 60sec is easier to handle than if they do that simultaneously.

Temu sure wish they didn’t, but they do in fact need to adhere to local laws in juridictions where they’re doing business.

There already are complaints against Temu for noncompliance to EU regulation. For instance https://www.beuc.eu/sites/default/files/publications/BEUC-X-2024-046_Temu_Why_the_fast-growing_online_marketplace_fails_to_comply_with_the_DSA.pdf

It may be trickier to enforce law against Temu vs a more classic and direct seller of goods, so it may take more time, and it may become a game of whack a mole, but there will be some enforcement.

If not the chineese manufacturer, then whoever is importing them .

They should force a recall.

There are hypotheticals precisely because Tiktok is not transparent enough. It sounds like they’re doing an estimate on the best data publically available.

At the very least, this put pressure on Tiktok to be more transparent. Tiktok could prove the study wrong by publishing more about their energy and resource use.

Is there a server component, or is everything running in the browser?

He’s also giving more material to the CoC board by posting this. He’s free to do it but it’s not helping.

I wish he would avoid commenting and stay away from the drama, until he hears from the board if there’s any complaint and what it is.
