Google foists 4 GB of AI into everyone's Chrome; Linux copy insecurity; script kiddy litter escapes Claude's sandbox; Cisco hits serial 10.0s; CISA leaves its keys out in the open; and M$ does damage control following bug-bounty bad-faith backlash.

It's been a hell of a May.
Come for group therapy.

I have two Outlooks and both of those are too dangerous for release to the public.

The problem with RFC 9948 (and 8962, albeit implied) is that the judicial function (Schedule of Punishments) is delegated to the executive role (Internet Protocol Police) in the absence of a jury trial of one's peers.

We have to address this tacit nod towards authoritarianism.
The brainstorming begins April 3rd, at 5PM.

We IRQ your WWⅢ tomorrow at 5PM to stop, drop, and prop @NYC2600's @lambdacalculus for getting written up in El Reg (https://www.theregister.com/2026/02/28/def_con_jake_braun_fed_up_govt).

Office falls short of its advertised 365. Bitcoin loses all last year's gains. Fortinet SSO proves to be a single point of failure. Patch Tuesday borks more than it patches. Slop writes everything around here, but AI ROI is still "real soon now"...

If it weren't for HOPE becoming a 501(c)(3), 2026 would be indistinguishable from 2025.

2025 ended with the restoration of a missing link in the UNIX family tree byresurrecting data off of a 54-year-old tape kept in less than ideal climate controled archival storage conditions.

Porting begins tomorrow, 5PM. Bring your own compiler.

Some will remember 2025 as the year a trillion dollars were squandered chasing negligible returns on investments in a slop bubble and ⅔ of the Cloud vaporizing to the point that we utterly failed to Internet.

We'll remember St. John excommunicating #Hope (and not because of the googly eyes incident!)

Join us at 5PM.

What's more upsetting: SWIFT integrating the blockchain into mainstream payment systems, Microsoft undermining your IT department's policies on Copilot, or that @XioNYC still hasn't fixed HTTPS on the 2600.nyc site?

The polls open tomorrow at 5PM - no proxies (This isn't AFRINIC!)

Data Drifted out of SalesForce, the Matrix(.org) is rebuilding its RAID, Microsoft backdated the .gitignore of 6502 BASIC by 48 years, and Altman admits AI is a bubble - and all that before Patch Tuesday!

Commiseration? Yes, please.
