Inventory of the stickers I collected at #39c3. Some go on my laptop, some into my collection, some for my children to play with and the rest to various sticker drops
Please help me add altText, if you spot a sticker that there is no altText for, or if you have a different description, please add it in the replies and I'll update the #altText

Using AI in court? Yikes. 😬
"In one notable case, a Toronto lawyer is facing a criminal contempt of court proceeding after including cases invented by ChatGPT in her submissions earlier this year, then denying it when questioned by the presiding judge. In a letter to the court months later, the lawyer said she misrepresented what happened out of "fear of the potential consequences & sheer embarrassment."" https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/increasing-ai-use-canadian-courtrooms-carries-risk-9.7031131

Imagine one were to— due to the many frustrating limitations of GNOME's Wayland server, Mutter— build an independent server based on wlroots or smithay which is tweaked to support whatever special capabilities GNOME needs, as a drop-in replacement for Mutter not subject to the GNOME project's organizational rigidity.
Now, the important question is
Do you name this Shout, which is the opposite of Mutter
Or do you name it Gargamel, because it kills gnomes

Wake up, get dressed, fire up the sump pump, say the words “sump pump” out loud a few times… 2026 has begun.
A minor Christmas miracle: I crocheted this chenille cat bed for Harmony (in an attempt to somewhat contain the torbie fur from spreading all over the new comforter) and she is actually using it! #caturday #CatsOfMastodon
I knew it was too good to be true! Cat bed malfunction, containment breached. #CatsOfMastodon
【出事了 ... ㊙️】當世界各地歡慶新年之際，Sony PlayStation 的工程師可能正從惡夢中驚醒，因為 2025 年最後數個小時，PlayStation 5 主機宣告被完全破解，其安全架構中被嚴密保護的 BootROM 程式碼及金鑰成功導出，這意味著未來 PS5 盜版、自製軟體和模擬器將接踵而來。
據安全專家《The Cybersec Guru》最新報告，2025 年 12 月 31 日晚間，地下遊戲機破解圈流出了 PS5 主機的 BootROM 程式碼及金鑰。這段程式碼是主機按下電源按鈕時最先執行的啟動程式，用作驗證系統啟動過程是否合法，這意味著 PS5 的保安全面失守。
PS5 主機採用 AMD 客製化的 APU 晶片，其安全性一向表現不俗。直到昨天為止，PS5 僅曾被突破系統核心（Level 4）和 WebKit 瀏覽器（User Layer），這些都是「軟體」層面的漏洞，其後已由 Sony 透過韌體更新修復。

Since Wrapstodon isn't a feature easily enabled and available for every instance, I am super happy about @phanpy's neat 'Year in Posts' overview. So cool to look at! 🤓
There's also an option to show only posts with media, and you can click on every month individually to look at the posts more specifically. Excellent! 🌟
