77 of the 80 CA Senate members approved this garbage. We must stop this now in the court system and with our votes.

What ICE is doing in US airports today, it will be doing at US polling places in November. These photos aren’t funny or incongruous; they should be giving us nightmares. This has to end now.

Eroding privacy under the guise of "protecting children". Call your representative, let them know they will be voted out of office if they approve this. It's our job as parents and technologist to teach the next generation and help them grow responsibly, not the governments.

One of our maintainers, @zoef, makes a really strong visual case on the importance of Web of Trust especially in 2026

I like ZigBee for Home-Automation 🙂

Hardware from many different manufacturers, all compatible with each other.

- Philips
- Ikea
- Sonoff
- Xiaomi

No proprietary bridges, no cloud, no vendor lock-in. Just some free and open source software (Zigbee2MQTT / Home Assistant) and a tiny USB dongle (ConBee II) as a network coordinator.

All meshing nicely and every grid-powered device effectively extends my network's range by relaying datagrams.

How do you trust a new Linux Distribution? Here is a dive into 5458 Keys coloring the groundlayer of trust the whole internet powers 💗

https://kron.fi/en/posts/stagex-web-of-trust/

How do you trust a new Linux Distribution?

Who do you trust (… and how do you trust the new Linux Distribution StageX?) Do you trust your best friend from childhood? Do you trust your chosen Distribution for your Homelab? For your Workplace? Psychology says there are roughly two types of trust. Direct and Transitive trust. Direct trust is you trusting your best friend. Transitive trust is your best friend assuring you another person is also trustworthy and you listening to their word because you trust them.

Security celebrities have been shitting on the PGP Web Of Trust as an idea we should abandon in favor of centralizing trust on corpos.

Meanwhile the internet is filling with AI bots using fake corpo accounts and no one can tell who is human anymore. Huh.

WoT has never mattered more, and it is time we anchor modern tooling back to the human roots that built the internet.

My fellow [Stageˣ] maintainer Kron, Zoë Finja Emilia makes a strong visual case.
