「話し合い」って相当最後の手段だと思うので、「なんでも話し合って解決」は嫌いだな。

その前にできることは無数にあると思ふ。人は相手の動きを見るので。

なので「話し合いませんか」と言われると、あのさぁ、、、などと思う時もありけり。

So, Enisa, the cybersecurity agency of the EU, releases a yearly Threat Landscape. In the 2025 edition, they've used AI. And the AI introcuded loads of errors. Five percent of all the links end up 404

One of the researchers.(@wavehackr) told me: "You just had to click once", to check whether the links are valid or not. Upon closer inspection, you'd notice something was amiss just by looking, i.e., Enisa referenced a blogpost by MSFT. The link has "APT29" in it. Microsoft is very picky about those names.

They even have a blogpost about their naming convention (learn.microsoft.com/en-us/unif) What other companies call APT29, MSFT calls "Midnight Blizzard". The AI apparently didn't dig those subtleties.

Here's the story

Schon bei niedrigen Temperaturen können so stark auskühlen, dass sie komplett regungslos wirken.
🔍 So könnt ihr die prüfen:

• Fühlt unter Flügel/Achseln und dem Gefieder; ist es dort noch warm?
• Sind Reflexe an den Augen vorhanden? Ihr könnt mit dem Finger leicht auf den Augenwinkel tippen, um zu prüfen, ob ein Lidreflex da ist.
• Sind keine schweren Verletzungen oder Leichenstarre sichtbar?

👐 Was ihr tun könnt, wenn mind. einer der Punkte zutrifft:⬇️ 1/2

Hey everyone,

Gaza Verified is now open again for verification calls in 2026.

The new process for signing up for verification calls uses sign in with Mastodon and should remove the last remaining technical hurdle that was giving some of our friends in Gaza a hard time (adding the verification link to your Mastodon account is not intuitive in the current Mastodon interface). With this new flow, you won’t have to, we do it for you.

gaza-verified.org

Also, please remember that Israel, USA, and Germany are continuing their genocide of the Palestinian people with the complicity of the UK and almost the entire rest of the EU.

And we can help, if only a little. And even if it’s just a drop in the ocean it’s still a meaningful drop for those it helps:

gaza-verified.org/donate/

💕

"'Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known,' [Donna Ganger, Renee Good's mother] said. 'She was extremely compassionate. She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.'”

Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds Merlin Sheldrake, 2023

When we think of fungi, we likely think of mushrooms. But mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on a tree. Most fungi live out of sight yet make up a massively diverse kingdom of organisms that supports and sustains nearly all living systems. Fungi provide a key to understanding the planet on which we live, and the ways we think, feel, and behave.



In the first edition of the mind-bending, “gorgeous” (Margaret Atwood), ”brilliant [and] entrancing” (The Guardian) Entangled Life, Sheldrake introduced us to this mysterious but massively diverse kingdom of life. This new edition, abridged from the original, features over 100 full-color images that bring the spectacular variety, strangeness and beauty of fungi to life as never before.

We Can't Say We Didn't Know by Sophie McNeill, 2020

Dispatches from an age of impunity by an award-winning investigative reporter and former foreign correspondent
For more than 15 years, award-winning journalist Sophie McNeill has reported on some of the most war-ravaged and oppressive places on earth, including Syria, Gaza, Yemen, West Bank, Iraq and China.









 In We Can't Say We Didn't Know, Sophie tells the human stories of devastation and hope behind the headlines - of children, families and refugees, of Saudi women seeking asylum, struggling doctors, imprisoned Uyghurs and Hong Kong protesters. These innocent civilians bear the brunt of the lawlessness of the current age of impunity, where war crimes go unpunished and human rights are abused. Many risk everything they know to stand up for what they believe in and to be on the right side of history, no matter how daunting or impossible it might appear, and their courage is extraordinary and inspiring.

I am continually impressed at the ability of giant orgs to succeed despite themselves.

I am reminded of saying that has been attributed to both Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch.

"Go for a business that any idiot can run, because sooner or later any idiot probably is going to be running it."

A few days ago, a client’s data center (well, actually a server room) "vanished" overnight. My monitoring showed that all devices were unreachable. Not even the ISP routers responded, so I assumed a sudden connectivity drop. The strange part? Not even via 4G.

I then suspected a power failure, but the UPS should have sent an alert.

The office was closed for the holidays, but I contacted the IT manager anyway. He was home sick with a serious family issue, but he got moving.

To make a long story short: the company deals in gold and precious metals. They have an underground bunker with two-meter thick walls. They were targeted by a professional gang. They used a tactic seen in similar hits: they identify the main power line, tamper with it at night, and send a massive voltage spike through it.

The goal is to fry all alarm and surveillance systems. Even if battery-backed, they rarely survive a surge like that. Thieves count on the fact that during holidays, owners are away and fried systems can't send alerts. Monitoring companies often have reduced staff and might not notice the "silence" immediately.

That is exactly what happened here. But there is a "but": they didn't account for my Uptime Kuma instance monitoring their MikroTik router, installed just weeks ago. Since it is an external check, it flagged the lack of response from all IPs without needing an internal alert to be triggered from the inside.

The team rushed to the site and found the mess. Luckily, they found an emergency electrical crew to bypass the damage and restore the cameras and alarms. They swapped the fried server UPS with a spare and everything came back up.

The police warned that the chances of the crew returning the next night to "finish" the job were high, though seeing the systems back online would likely make them move on. They also warned that thieves sometimes break in just to destroy servers to wipe any video evidence.

Nothing happened in the end. But in the meantime, I had to sync all their data off-site (thankfully they have dual 1Gbps FTTH), set up an emergency cluster, and ensure everything was redundant.

Never rely only on internal monitoring. Never.
