I'm here looking for other telenet (not telnet) oldheads, finding nobody.

Yes? The claim: the Polish border is easy. My counterclaim: no it is not.

This is completely counter to my recent-ish experience. Over the last two years I've entered Poland... 14 times? and over time, the experience has gotten more intrusive.

Disclaimer: I left Microsoft in 2007. At that time he had several years of posts in an internal queue that you could comment on.

I've told this story so many times I've worn the corners off it. BT was giving a presentation to MSN WAN OPS about the new datacenter buildout in London for us. They kept going on and on about physical security, man traps, and that our fiber left the building on each side and didn't get close to each other for so many km away.

BT guy ends that part of the presentation with "the IRA will really have to get shit together to take you off the net"

This was during the troubles. Same planet, different world.

I eat the whole orange, grapefruit, lemon or lime.

I like the bitter to offset the sweetness.

Walk around your neighborhood and see who has security cameras.

I did something similar for a US tourist who was making me ashamed of being a US tourist. Got on a boat tour, bar is cash only, he only has dollars. I traded him something like $100 worth of yen, I told him the exchange rate, and that he was paying above it. He didn't care, he just wanted to buy some drinks

I agree; however, here is my vibe-coded home ALPRS:

The bar is low.

This is the feature I’ve missed most from Gerrit. Thank you

buy any dongle that sells for under $100 on amazon. they all have the same mac, and come with 'bespoke' apps to let you do things to your car. those apps are all thin wrappers on code widely shared; they use the MAC of the dongle as the keystone for ID.

Short story: buy one cheap dongle on Amazon, dump the MAC (00:11:22:AA:BB:CC IIRC; it's been 15 years since I cared) and you have auth to all of the apps everywhere.

Reminder: the Bluetooth logo comes, mostly, from self-certification.

When I cared, I found out that a lot of OBD-II dongles shipped with the same MAC, which gave you access to everything on a bunch of websites.

You can curse the storm, but the wind will come.

Howdy! maybe? I was off and on at WMHD as a reprobate from a local high school. I never had the GPA to get in to Rose Hulman; even as a local.

Jim Grey and I knew all the same people at WMHD yet somehow never ran into each other. I was an annoying high school student. Ron Dippold (he ran usenet votes for a long time) was there, among others.

When I was digging through old VHS tapes, I digitized a couple TV spots and put them on youtube; passing them along to Jim.

Best advice I got when I got to San Jose was from an old recruiter - she must have been 30!

She said the Bay Area is big, but the Silicon Valley is small.

I think about her advice a lot.

The radio world is even smaller. I tried out at WZZQ when I was in high school, but didn't make the cut.

if I put two of these far-ish apart, can I get better 3d/4d data?

On the tech side, we are working closely with (for instance) Google: https://github.com/openwallet-foundation/multipaz-wallet

SPRIND: https://github.com/openwallet-foundation/eudiplo

Animo: https://github.com/openwallet-foundation-labs/mdoc-ts

and we do engage with NGOs and governments across the EU.

Keep in mind that while I am employed by the Linux Foundation, I know nothing of the internals of this project; I will speak, instead, of what the projects I support do.

I have found (c) to be high noise, low signal. We're winding down our HackerOne program.

D: we do this in a couple ways. For PQCA, for instance, we use credits from AWS to get access to hardware to run proofs and CI on. PQCA also has a paid mentorship program.

For OWF, we do the same with AWS credits, as well as provide hosting for projects to run services on for testing.

For LFDT, we offer paid mentorships, have paid for Trail of Bits to do reviews, and run events. We had a maintainer summit in New York in January so our maintainers could meet for two days face-to-face. We fund large GitHub CI runners for projects as well.

I know it doesn't answer everything, but our team is only a few people and we really do work hard to help developers. What I'll call the devrel team for OWF/PQCA/LFDT is three FTE, one contractor, and our manager.

LFDT: https://www.lfdecentralizedtrust.org/

OWF: https://openwallet.foundation/

PQCA: https://pqca.org/

PQCA benchmarks, for instance: https://pq-code-package.github.io/mldsa-native/dev/bench/

I enjoyed supporting you in the AllJoyn/AllSeen Alliance era. Sadly, those lessons were never learned.

mostly unrelated, but over the last few weeks I've gone down a rabbit hole having claude write scripts to label videos I shoot through night vision.

I want to get it pointing out overflights and satellites by name, but I'm not there yet.

I emailed Lenstra about some ancient history, we had a nice chat.

RSA129 - I have a color copy of the prize check. I asked how many he sent out.

Help us spread the word? We have good engagement but we need more from governments.

I will point to two items. One, an interview I had. Two, a footnote in history.

1: I own a gun because a disarmed populace is required for genocide and should it come around again, I’m not going to be that guy. I’m not going to be standing on the side.

I manage multiple open source Github enterprises for the Linux Foundation. Something like this is under discussion in all of them - the amount of terrible PRs and issues being filed is overwhelming.

Does it matter? Control of you life is your basic human right. Firearms are the great equalizer.

As an American citizen supporting your government's work to do exactly that, I also wonder.

thanks. shoot me an email ry@walledcity.org if you need a test subject

Trying to set it up with HOVER as a registrar - I get:

Nameserver [ns1.dynip.dev] doesn't exist at the registry (Code 480)

I'm in the same boat. I've been using the Gemini CLI since late last year - it's the only reason I moved up to Ultra.

I guess it's time to move to something else with a business model that might survive a reorg.

Update: unsubscribed from Google Ultra, moving to Claude Max
