Sailor's jog app inadvertently leaks French aircraft carrier's location

France says it’s taking “appropriate measures” after a naval officer’s use of the Strava sports app inadvertently enabled journalists to geolocate the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle in the Mediterranean. Le Monde newspaper said Thursday it traced a naval officer’s March 13 run and then matched the Strava data to a same-day satellite image. The newspaper said the jogger was likely on the carrier or a nearby escort ship. A French military spokesman said Friday that sailors get regular warnings about connected devices and geolocation.

"Australian police have found human remains in their search for a Sydney grandfather who they believe was kidnapped by mistake almost two weeks ago... Police say the incident was most likely a case of mistaken identity, and local media have reported the intended target was a relative of a man with links to a well-known organised crime family..."

Oh, look! 🎉 #Binance accidentally sent $1.7B worth of #crypto to Iran, and instead of fessing up, they #fired the #employees who discovered it. 🤡 Clearly, the best way to handle an "oopsie" of epic proportions is to shoot the messenger—bravo, Binance, you've reinvented accountability! 🚀

I cleaned up my firewall rules last weekend, removing only those I was certain were no longer needed and related to systems I'd already decommissioned.

Today I spent 40 minutes troubleshooting why my Forgejo-Runner deployment pipeline wasn't working anymore...

Turns out one of those "cleaned up" rules was still in use. Oops! 😂

But I have snapshots!
~ # diff /etc/pf.conf /.zfs/snapshot/autosnap_2026-01-17_01:00:02_daily/etc/pf.conf

This quickly revealed the culprit and let me easily restore the missing rule.

Everything's working and green again 🙂
