swappable battery is cool and all but I wish my phone would allow hotswapping it if plugged into a charger, so it could stay booted (I wouldn't mind modem etc. restarting, just the main OS should stay up imo)

Paar eenvoudige manieren waarop je Palestina en Palestijnen in Gaza kunt steunen:

1. Doneer eSIMs: nog steeds de enige manier voor o.a  journalisten en hulpdiensten in Gaza om in contact te kunnen blijven: connecting-humanity.org/
Crowdfund: Crips for eSIM: chuffed.org/project/crips-for- IEDER BEDRAG WELKOM.

2. Voor de verschrikkelijk hoge kosten om te overleven: doneer aan GoFundMe's of via gazafunds.com/, en deel ze. IEDER BEDRAG WELKOM.

3. Doe mee met Boycott, Divestment en Sanction: bdsnederland.nl/ Gebruik de app Boycat.

4. Blijf praten over Palestina, op je werk, bij je vakbond en politieke partij. Deel info van decolonizepalestine.com/ Volg open colleges of een workshop bij Workshops 4 Gaza: workshops4gaza.com/

5. Zoek je lokale pro-Palestina groep op en overleg of je ze ergens mee kunt steunen. Doe mee aan acties.

6. Steun Palestijnse initiatieven zoals the Sameer Project, Palestine Medical Relief Project en Care for Gaza die directe hulp op de grond geven.

Folks, if someone in the US wants to study a group of people with a a certain condition, they go to an IRB to get permission. They have to decide if the research will use identifiable information. If the data contain identifiers, you essentially always have to get permission from each and every patient, and that permission has to be specific to the exact use of their data.

You don’t “make a registry” of everyone with a disease. Bad people do that. Nazis. Insurance execs. Bad people.

Apps that log you out because you haven’t used the app in over a week. WHY? It’s isn’t even a crucial app like a bank or something.

Wizards of the Coast did as they promised, and released a System Reference Document (that is, the basic rules and game mechanics) for the 2024 edition of Dungeons & Dragons under an extremely open Creative Commons (CC-BY-4.0) licence.

D&D isn't necessarily the game for *you*, but it *is* historically significant and still extremely popular, and I think it's cool that any part of it is available under such a licence.

With both #Eurovision and the Papal conclave happening in May, it’s gonna be a big month for Europeans who love overly complex, confusing and dramatic ways to select a winner that are run by international bureaucracies, include smoke for dramatic effect and feature excessively extra outfits

@anildash Several years ago we created a man-in-the-middle system - basically a two port Ethernet bridge - that implemented what we called a "constipation engine".

It would recognize an incoming TCP connection and based on supplied criteria would distinguish between connections to be allowed and those to be constipated.

The TCP constipation manipulated the TCP window size parameters so that from the attacker's point of view a TCP connection would be open and in a connected state but the data flow would be a trickle. Thus a web page fetch, nominally very fast could span many minutes, even hours,

Most attackers, driven by software not people, would not notice this slow down of data delivery to a few bytes every few seconds.

Although this would not stop web scraping it would slow the attacker to a crawl, likely preventing it from ever finishing its scraping or moving on to other victims.

The cost for the website was basically some TCP state control blocks in memory and very little CPU or network I/O burden.

So far on #EarthDay walk, I’ve seen Lilac, Periwinkle & Lavender flowers! It is really cool to meet the namesakes of our human colors. 💜

I was amazed when I met Fuscia a few years ago!!

Do you have any favorite color-namesakes? Please tell or show me about the pretty things

6 years later and I still wonder what happened to this door I encountered in an abandoned building to make it look like that

Nieuwssites en kranten e.d. hebben nogal de neiging om de oorzaak van incidenten en rampen helemaal weg te laten uit de berichtgeving, waardoor je geen verbanden kunt leggen.

En als je ze daar dan op aanspreekt, dan is het excuus "ja maar de oorzaak weten we niet met zekerheid op het moment van publicatie".

Waarom publiceer je er dan uberhaupt over?! Wat is de toegevoegde waarde van je nieuwsartikel voor de maatschappij dan nog, als je zelf ook nog geen idee hebt wat er aan de hand is of welke lessen je daaruit kunt trekken?

uspol, autism 

RFK Jr does not genuinely believe that they will find "the cause of autism" by September, nor is there any intention to do so. They understand perfectly well that that's not possible.

It's just a pretext so that when they make up some eugenics bullshit in September, it'll sound more credible because now people will believe that it came from "science".

I understand people might need formal diagnosis for a number of reasons. I do want to share this however as a note of warning, that a record of neurodivergence can be weaponized by governments.
