It's not only a native port, they also had to do more work to make it 64-bit clean, add native file load and save dialog boxes, #MIDI background #music via #FluidSynth, and a video player powered by #GStreamer – among other things. Currently, they're looking at making a #RaspberryPi version as well.

Who even needs #Microsoft #Windows anymore?

The new Companion Deck for OWASP Cornucopia includes six novel suits to assist threat modelling of Agentic AI, Cloud, DevOps, Frontend, LLM and Automation. The suits can be used alone or in combination with suits from either existing Cornucopia decks: the Website App Edition or Mobile App Edition. My main contribution to this is the Automated Threats (BOT) suit.

AI-powered hacking has exploded into industrial-scale threat, Google says

Criminal groups and state-linked actors appear to be using commercial models to refine and scale up attacks

The Guardian

From @sjamieit.bsky.social:

The City of Ottawa posted the raw speed data from before and after Doug Ford banned speed cameras and the effect is so obvious it's not even necessary put a line marking when that happened.

This chart shows the percentage of drivers going 15km/h or more over the posted limit.

The data: https://open.ottawa.ca/datasets/52f34797978c44c1820b8b2d7a4ae3ed

I know they do good work. And I know they’re basically the only goverment even trying in ottawa but this weak nonsense in the face of all the data showing we need better and drivers are killing the city and people in the city. Just fuck. #ottpoli
