Know your systems, know your data.

Federal Cyber Experts Thought Microsoft’s Cloud Was “a Pile of Shit.” They Approved It Anyway.

A federal program created to protect the government against cyber threats authorized a sprawling Microsoft cloud product, despite the company’s inability to fully explain how it protects sensitive data.

If you’re tired of feeling like there’s nothing that you can do to help make the world a better place besides voting, I’m here to tell you that there is…

Volunteer.

Food banks, soup kitchens, senior centers, blood banks, animal shelters, and more. Find a place where you can be in the service of others. Where you can give back to the community that you live in.

It’s a great way to get out of your own head. Serve others, and serve the better parts of yourself in return

@natevw Still not bad. I would be curious if the margin of error held with multiples or a fraction of the string length.

@stefano boredom yes. I fear something darker, “entitlement.” At least in North America, we tell people to work for 40 years and then do what you want. For some there is a subtle turn for some where they work for 40 years and then expect *everyone else* to do what they want. I hear echoes of that from your neighbors.

@tbridge About 10 years ago I took a non-profit with 130 employees from 90% windows to 90% mac. Most employees only needed MS office and a browser. We bought default spec Macbook Airs at the time. It sounds like if I had a do over today, I could probably hand people MacBook Neos for everyone but the power users.

Want to get an overview on the current status of the world? Then take a look at https://world-monitor.app

It's an open source project which provides a freely available OSINT/Intelligence-Dashboard. It's open source and transparent, provided by a community and non profit. No fees, no subscription required.

You can even fetch the sourcecode from github an run it on your own servers. https://github.com/koala73/worldmonitor

It tracks in real-time active conflict zones + escalation rating, live tracking of military planes, battleships and dark behaviour of ships, nuclear plants worldwide, protests, sanctions and internet outages as well as military bases in nine countries.

The platform uses AI to read more than hundred news sources and to classify threads in realtime.

I think this is something worth taking a look at.
