No ground breaking new info for me, but inspirational nevertheless. While listening, I decided to switch to part-time work in my fiat job, and start looking for more meaningful projects. Hopefully, a couple of years down the line, this will lead to a complete transition away from the fiat mines. https://fountain.fm/episode/zd5q3mF7xwjfmpuHZ5kR nostr:nevent1qvzqqqpxquqzpyw7n66yvfvtqmc2lkl7cl9ck929ruc86dcg3qq49cerqcr26sry3m54m0

No matter who's in power and no matter what the crisis is, the answer is always to restrict your freedoms. "Smith-Mundt placed restrictions on what the US government is allowed to do with regard to propaganda, while the proposed “Charlie Kirk Act” would give the US government sweeping new powers to decide what does and does not constitute propaganda and untruth and administer penalties accordingly. One limits the US government’s ability to manipulate public information, while the other explicitly expands it." https://caitlinjohnstone.com.au/2025/09/14/trump-promotes-a-charlie-kirk-act-to-establish-a-ministry-of-truth/

Hey you guys they found “I am trans” written on the bullets and “I am Antifa” was also written on the bullets and also “Nothing can stop us radical leftists but a huge Palantir surveillance network” and also “Killer police robots and murder drones would thwart our plans.” Come on. The claim fizzled almost as soon as it surfaced, with one law enforcement official telling The New York Times that “the report had not been verified by A.T.F. analysts, did not match other summaries of the evidence and might turn out to have been misread or misinterpreted.” https://caitlinjohnstone.com.au/2025/09/12/all-mainstream-american-political-pundits-are-evil-scumbags/

The reactions of various journalists I follow to the murder of Charlie Kirk basically fall into two groups. Some point out the holes in the story and how the outrage it generates will be abused for more contol. Some fuel the outrage. I am resisting the urge to unfollow the latter, people are allowed wrong opinions if they also deliver valuable ones.

Some people thought that when Trump said he will send the army against the drug lords, he actually meant fighting cartels. Well, he's sending the army to Venezuela under the pretexts of fighting drugs. https://caitlinjohnstone.com.au/2025/08/31/theyre-lying-about-venezuela-while-moving-war-machinery-into-place/

If you run Dovecot (IMAP server) on Debian, upgrading from Bookworm to Trixie is unusually painful. They changed a ton of config options from version 2.3 to 2.4

Upgraded all my self-hosted services today, was much less painful than I thought. When you ask AI for the config update, make sure you ask it to disable all HTTP versions below 2, not just 1.1. Otherwise it might happily leave 1.0 running. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzq7nfuhmzlnpqaqd7af6xr229uef3lrregssq6zeuknxxx4tvgsgxqythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qy2hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn00p68ytnyv4mz7qpqe9hr9f042u0f760c7dngrnzqtxtxu70s9pe72n3ppulz8dh6g5wqx6tvhv

"It's time to acknowledge HTTP/1.1 is insecure Upstream HTTP/1.1 is inherently insecure, and routinely exposes millions of websites to hostile takeover. Vendors have spent six years deploying mitigations, and researchers have consistently bypassed them." https://http1mustdie.com/
