I'm more of a reader than a writer in 'Mastodon Space' but today I bring you something that those people I follow may not have heard of: what's likely to be the first attempt at a space suit, designed as early as 1936 in Spain. It was to be tested with a hot air balloon but unfortunately the whole thing had to be scrapped due to the Civil War. One piece of the original suit has now been found. In Spanish but Google Translate does the trick.

I am not exaggerating this:

I created a new hostname in DNS, then added it to my existing webserver config.

It was online for 3 seconds -- 3! -- before getting a 404 request for /.git/config.

If you're relying on obscurity to protect your services, get that right out your fool head today. You have about 3 seconds to get your act together.

Dear Lazyweb: what is the most recent model of Mac mini capable of running macOS 10.13 High Sierra? That is: the last OS capable of running 32-bit Intel applications.

Is there an #author or #writer community here? I've been using threads for that as it has a very active one

Mastodon is so broad and the federated model means I've basically only ever seen tech content since that's what I'm connected to

#ElonMusk’s shifting preferences away from #Ukraine and toward #Russia are indicative of a larger shift in his politics where he’s not only been speaking out in favor of right-wing issues and echoing conspiracy theories around topics like immigration and gender, but actively seeking to build an alliance with likeminded political movements the world over.

there's something real fucking dark about how AI is too inaccurate for tracking people around a grocery store so they have humans to make sure every last item is paid for, whereas if your AI is generating targets for a genocide then a serious error rate is perfectly within acceptable parameters.

This month's edition of Scottish Field magazine focuses on Perthshire & it was a pleasure to be asked about drystone by Rosie. Our chat was easy and her questions interesting. I'm so pleased with how the piece turned out.

Photos by me, except the portrait, which is by my daughter Anna De Garis.

:blob_cat_coffee:​ people thought the “fantasy” part of sci-fi/fantasy was the magical wizards and dragons, but really things like “computers will become smart if we make them really complicated” and “someday faster than light space travel will be easy and commonplace” are way more fantastical and less likely to exist than a dragon is

So, let me get this straight.

Their entire business model involves stealing from the open Internet and now they are running out of places to steal from?

There isn't a violin small enough in the universe for me to want to play regarding this.

It seems McCarthyism is alive and well and targeting folks in the tech world who speak out against Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people.

Let me tell you this: it only makes me want to shout louder.

You will not silence us. We will not sit idly by and watch a genocide unfold before our very eyes. And history will judge you harshly even if our crumbling, hypocritical, two-tier system of so-called international law does not.
