i was quite surprised to discover that no one had registered deleteduser [dot] com, and was curious to see how many emails i'd get if i registered it, assuming many orgs 'delete' logic probably just overwrote the email address with [email protected] or similar.

The answer, is at least 3 different orgs in the hour that I've owned that domain and been listening for email.

And yes, all of those emails contain the actual PII of the person who has been 'deleted' :-D

Maglev is canarying at AS8298 IPng Networks - yaay!

First screenshot is nginx-logtail, which aggregates up and slices trending information of all HTTP traffic.

Second screenshot is the vpp-maglev loadbalancer, which distributes (a fraction of) traffic from chbtl2, chlzn1, nlams1, frggh1 to nginx frontends

Third and fourth screenshot is observability with Prometheus and Grafana on how the system is behaving.

Look closely to see a restart of one nginx instance with siblings taking the load!

GCVE is not only designed for distributed vulnerability publication and correlation across multiple sources. It already provides automatic vulnerability classification capabilities through the broader Vulnerability-Lookup ecosystem. In particular, GCVE can rely on VL-AI to automatically estimate vulnerability severity from historical data, giving defenders an immediate first-pass assessment even when no manually curated score is yet available.

NetBSD turns 33 this Sunday! 🚩

To celebrate 33 years of clean code, portability, and zero bloat, Challenging the rest of the fediverse to help hit this year's funding goals.

Also do drop a screenshot of your uptime, uname -a, or a pic of the weirdest hardware you've got running NetBSD right now. (RockPro64 NPF routers or Pi's hooked up to retro CRTs highly encouraged).

Throw some money at the developers keeping the real UNIX alive:

Plus lots more to see in 7.9! Stay tuned! ​​

Another reason to hate #Apple We're seeing more 2018+ MacBook Pro/Air donations — but Apple's T2 chip means even after iCloud sign-out and reset, the firmware stays locked to the original account.

Without donor contact, these machines are useless. :(

I've upcycled ~1,000 older Macs, but T2 era machines will end that. It's controlling, creates e-waste, and will only get worse. #righttorepair matters — Apple couldn't care less.
