“I think I know how to use passwords securely, so passkeys are annoying and nobody should use them.” is tech-speak for, “I don’t care about the online account security of other people.”, or more succinctly, “I don’t care about other people.”

People overestimate their competence and underestimate the cost of phishing and credential stuffing. Individuals having to learn to use password management software and be vigilant against phishing is an industry failure, not a personal success.

How “smart” and “dumb pipe” identity APIs are reshaping the browser’s role in digital identity. What happens when FedCM and the DC API sit this close together?

Two APIs Walk Into a Browser: FedCM vs. the DC API

Two APIs walk into a bar. The bartender says, “You two together?” FedCM answers, “Absolutely not! I need explicit user consent first.”The DC API just shrugs and says, “I’m just here to pass messages.”

:firefox: New Mozilla's CEO isn't very good a veiled threats:

"He says he could begin to block ad blockers in Firefox and estimates that’d bring in another $150 million, but he doesn’t want to do that. It feels off-mission"

We’re getting $0 in donations outside of the recurring ones people have set up. Meanwhile people in Gaza are living through the cold and extreme flooding. Giving can help with shelter, blankets, food.

chuffed.org/project/hope-givin

Keep Hope Alive: a Gaza Giving Circle

We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK, led by two sisters passionate about helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We saw that their campaigns are extremely stagnant and wanted to find a way to direct steady help to them. We distribute your contributions equally every week for sustainable support.

I'm sure the situation has improved - I don't think winsock.dll or Wolverine have ever had a proper pentest teardown, even for historical amusement's sake - but I have to assume, given that we live in a world where there are no specialized chips anymore, and everything from the boutique brand-namiest NICs to the dodgiest junk you'd find in a Shenzhenese dumpster is a general-purpose CPU running some tiny OS of questinably determinate provenance, that... well, you have to wonder.

Because you don't have a "network interface card", you have an ARM cpu, maybe even a whole-ass ARM SOC, handling ethernet frames on one side and talking PCI on the other.

You don't even have SD cards, because "memory cards" don't exist. That terabyte of storage the size of your thumbnail you bought? That's an ARM CPU managing the wear levels on its crap-ass flash backing storage while pretending to be a hard drive on the other side.

You don't know how many computers are in your computer.

낮 동안 우리를 활기 있게 하신 저의 주님, 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님,
당신과 함께 있으리니, 자는 동안도 지켜 주시어 편히 쉬게 하소서.

"1. 저의 주님, 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님, 오늘 하루 저희가 겪은 모든 일 위에 당신의 면발을 덮어주시고, 평온한 밤의 쉼을 허락하소서."

🍝 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님께서 여러분과 함께.
😋 또한 주교의 면발과 함께 하소서.
🍝 기도합시다.
저의 주님, 날아다니는 스파게티 괴물 님, 이 밤을 편히 쉬게 하시고, 거룩한 죽음을 맞게 하소서.

In the final part of my 5-part series on the history of blogging and RSS, we come to 2003: when RSS Readers like NetNewsWire and Bloglines burst onto the scene, and when I made my official entrance into the blogosphere with a Radio Userland blog called Read/WriteWeb. Also: Google buys Blogger, WordPress debuts, and 16-year old Aaron Swartz live-blogs a Dave Winer keynote. cybercultural.com/p/blogospher

If you read to the end*, you'll notice I plugged the fediverse:

"If you have comments, well this isn't a blog...but you can tag me on the fediverse [links to my Mastodon a/c]— the closest thing we have today to the blogosphere of 2003."

福岡縣朝倉市一處主要推銷給外國客戶的建案，在本月一日遭到市府宣佈預計撤回。

這個正在建設中的建案，目前預定住戶40%為中國客、40%為港台客、20%為日韓客。建商為中國企業集團。這個建案被懷疑是要在人口嚴重外移的朝倉市，進行實質上的「殖民地化」。網路社群上有許多反對此建案的聲音，連署撤回的活動甚至有超過五萬人響應。儘管這些聲音沒有任何法強制力，卻成功讓自治政府考慮此建案對地方造成的嚴重影響。

這個建案預計建築兩棟各14樓的大廈，入住戶數290戶，依照每戶大小估計住滿約705人。

抗議聲浪除了網路連署的五萬人之外，朝倉市收到1,250通抗議電話。有趣的是，建商也知道這波巨大聲浪，因此在10月宣佈建案規模縮小，改為只建築一棟、內含164戶。但是，這並沒有讓抗議聲浪減少。朝倉市民開始上街頭、寫實體抗議書（2,395名市民）連署，並要求市府居中協助開辦居民協調會。

五年前：中國企業買下了朝倉市一處高爾夫球場，地方原以為新企業接手，是為了重振高爾夫球場經營。沒想到，企業買高爾夫球場是為了蓋房子賣。
​
這是目前最近的反擊「寂靜收購戰」案例之一，向朝倉市民致敬。
