As it came up in a few conversations during "FOSDEM week", here's a link to the OpenSSF blog post about why the idea of "attestation for open source projects" is, in my opinion, and others, a bad idea:

https://openssf.org/blog/2026/01/21/preserving-open-source-sustainability-while-advancing-cybersecurity-compliance/

Yes, FOSS foundations and projects need ways of getting funding, that is very important, but thinking that "attestation is how we will get that money!" might not be such a good idea given the risks involved, and the past experience for those that have attempted it.

RE: mastodon.social/@Green_Footbal

You know, if you're a white supremacist and your goal is to deniably exterminate the untermenschen in camps by negligently letting plagues rip through them instead of gassing them, it shows a REMARKABLE lack of foresight to put an anti-vaxx nutcase in charge of your master race's public health policy, doesn't it?

These guys are evil but they're not terribly smart.

If they think letting disease rip through the population will "evolve" us, by selecting for good genes... well, that takes a while to happen.

Here's a walk-through of a paper on the evidence for an ancient viral pandemic in Asia. Yes, it changed the genome... slightly (42 genes with evidence of some selective mutation).

But... that pandemic apparently ran for about 20,000 years.

These flags would be so useful in daily life when you're having one of those days and want to let people know.

'I am dragging my anchor.' 'I require a tug.' 'Stop carrying out your intentions.'

And my personal favourite 🚩: 'I am on fire; keep clear of me.'

A book of old fashioned naval flags:

The texts per flag are labeled - 

KEEP WILL CLEAR LOW SPEED

I AM CARRYING DANGEROUS GOODS

I AM MANOEUVRING WITH DIFFICULTY

I AM DISABLED; COMMUNICATE WITH ME

I HAVE A PILOT ON BOARD

I AM DIRECTING MY COURSE TO PORT

I AM ON FIRE: KEEP CLEAR OF ME

I HAVE SOMETHING TO COMMUNICATE

MY VESSEL IS STOPPED

NO (NEGATIVE)

MAN OVERBOARD

ALL PERSONS TO REPORT ON BOARD

MY ENGINES ARE GOING FULL SPEED ASTERN

KEEP CLEAR OF ME

YOU ARE RUNNING INTO DANGER

I REQUIRE MEDICAL ASSISTANCE

STOP CARRYING OUT YOUR INTENTIONS

I AM DRAGGING MY ANCHOR

I REQUIRE A TUG

There's lots of US historical antecedents of Trumpism - fascist movements like Jim Crow, McCarthyism, the gleeful genocide of indigenous people. But when you're thinking about the rise of Trumpism, never forget that America isn't just a nation of cruel bigots; it's also a nation of rich swindlers.

A detail from a US$100 bill showing Benjamin Franklin's portrait. It has been altered. Franklin's face has been overlaid with an orange sad clown, surmounted by Trump's hair. The zeroes in '100' above and below the portrait have been extended to run its entire length.
