  • Trump broke the federal email system and government employees got blasted with astonishingly vulgar messages

    Jump

  • It's been 4 days.How did people get these email addresses?I mean, the domain is known.But was the system that president musk broke really holding back this torrent of abuse and garbage?Feels like actual email addresses were leaked.Unless it was a mailing list that was suddenly exposed.

    Still seems strange that an email that simply says "yo" suddenly came through as part of the spam.Feels like email addresses were posted somewhere, and someone jumped on for the lulz. Along with the wall of trolls and abusers jumping on.

    I mean, as soon as I link a domain to an IP, I see all sorts of "security" scans turn up. Till then, firewall is pretty quiet.And if I wildcard direct a domain to an ip, the root gets scanned but any sub domains don't.I feel email addresses would follow a similar pattern.

  • Elon Musk is trying to get control of key payment system—at any cost

  • But this is the shit that America has voted for.It's been writ large since 2016.And America wanted more of it.So if I was a career politician, and I saw this bullshit voted in twice, yeh. I'd quit as soon as it was against my ethos. Clearly my ethos isn't aligned with what Americans want.

  • Exclusive: Musk aides lock government workers out of computer systems at US agency, sources say

    Jump

  • Restricting access to sensitive information makes sense.But screeching an organisation (especially one with as much momentum as a government) to a halt to accomplish this is fucking stupid.This shit needs months, more like years, of planning and specifications to implement without grinding governments to a halt. I guess the only people (I mean, other than the employees) affected by this are the people that can't afford to have employees that solve problems for them.So, on brand of "crushing the poor & working class"

    Edit.Reassessing, it sounds like the people that oversee the system have been locked out by elons clowns.Only reason to do that is to exfiltrate data, I guess

  • U.S. President Trump wants more drilling, but the oil market is already saturated with hundreds of idle oil leases sitting untapped in the Gulf of Mexico

    Jump

  • At least they designated America as a sensitive country. I find that funny.

    Tbh, it's not Googles place to take sides in border disputes.The mockery and criticism should be directed at the US government. Google is doing what they have always done.

  • Is that http2? Cause http2 allows for reuse of a connection for additional requests.

    This caught me out with envoy reverse proxy doing a few subdomains using a wildcard cert.The browser would reuse the connection cause the cert authority and IP was the same, but envoy couldn't figure out how to route the request correctly. Absolute head scratcher!

  • Trump administration tests the power to email every federal employee at once

    Jump

  • I was working for an international company that was very modular.At a large event, they sent out an update to all attendees. Due to the way the internal mailing list worked, replies were sent to everyone on the list.All the non-english language mailboxes were set up with an automatic reply that detects the language and replies along the lines of "we speak French, if you need to contact us in English, please contact...".

    The event update was in English.

    The mail system was down for about an hour.

    After the initial rush, I'm pretty sure there were also "we speak French, if you need to contact us in Spanish, please contact..."

  • Redis 8.0-M3 Brings Async I/O Threading, 12x Speed-Up With New AVX2 Code Path

    Jump

  • It was a very popular nosql key-value store. Used massively for caching, certainly web apps in general.

    It was relicensed a few years ago to no longer be FOSS.Pretty sure the FOSS fork that is now widely used is Valley.

  • It’s not like we put letters in some sort of “alphabetical” order.

    Jump

  • Nah, the numbers are a grouping, the letters are a separate grouping, and there is a clear button. The order is the same on both, in columns from top left to bottom right.And the clear button is bottom right.

  • Google's official URL shortcut (update: or Google Workspace's domain verification, see bottom), is compromised. People are actively having their Google accounts stolen.

  • I saw that shit on Disney plus.Immediately cancelled my sub.Kids can have Bluey from the warships on the ocean 🦜☠️.

    I'd like to support content creators. They work hard, deliver their dream. And early on, a large delivery network is desirable! But if that provider enshitifies beyond my threshold, they are dead to me.

    So set sail!

    Trump pardons Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road drug marketplace

    Jump

  • I'm glad he has kept 1 promise. Maybe Ross was made an example of, by flouting laws and technical ability. Like some sort of "I'm smarter than you" kinda way. Or maybe he's the guy that made a mistake that lead to him being caught, and was made an example of as if "yeh, we can catch you".

    But trump is VERY against drugs when it suits him:https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/declaring-a-national-emergency-at-the-southern-border-of-the-united-states/ - lots of scary illicit narcotics.https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/designating-cartels-and-other-organizations-as-foreign-terrorist-organizations-and-specially-designated-global-terrorists/ - foreign drugs are terrorists.

    I guess all of this supports illegal (domestic) drugs, as long as the don't come from brown people, from the southern border or from illegal immigrants.I guess that's bringing manufacturing back to the US? Hurray rust belt!

    I guess if you are white: make & sling those drugs!You have at least 4 years to make a fucking fortune, as long as you don't import from non-whites!Fuck yeh! Freedom (for whites)!
