Dear IT-humans: Please do yourselves a favour and create security@ as an email address on all of your domains which is actually routed and read by someone with knowledge about your IT!
That way you make it easy for people who accidentally stumble upon security issues with your infrastructure to actually report them to you.

The sheer fact of having and reading security@ (as mandated by RFC 2142) will help improving your IT security.

This is an awesome set of ezines about distributed systems from a class (from @lindsey on birdsite)

whoa, my sketchy af external fan setup still works really well. System is stable at 40C, and the internal fan doesn't even need to spin. First time I touched a cold heatsink on this laptop

single sided floppy but it's not like, a floppy that only has data on one side, it's a floppy that physically only has one side. moebius floppy.

Female Genital Mutilation in the US 

Currently, there are 21 states that have no law against FGM, only California has a law restricting intersex genital mutilation, and there are no laws against male genital mutilation. All children need to be protected from genital cutting without consent, whether they are male, female, or intersex.

Female Genital Mutilation in the US 

Last November, a judge ruled that the 1996 federal law banning Female Genital Mutilation in the US was unconstitutional, in part because it did not protect all sexes equally, and because it did not fall under the Necessary and Proper Clause or the Commerce Clause of the constitution. Brian Earp explains this better than I can: youtube.com/watch?v=qc2-NB9nWt

Female Genital Mutilation in the US 

A friend sent this to me today: reuters.com/article/us-usa-rel

A woman in Kentucky from a strict christian family had her genitals mutilated along with her sister when she was 5 years old almost 40 years ago.

Cutting the genitals of children before they can consent is wrong.
