Information security stuff with emphasis on payment security. Views expressed are my own.

Yes VSCode, I obviously want to use the color-picker to edit my address offsets in Arm assembly 😂

Eurosystem sets out comprehensive strategy for future of European payments with four strategic aims:
1. To ensure the effectiveness of monetary policy, financial stability and the smooth functioning of payment systems by maintaining central bank money as the anchor of a two-tier monetary system
2. To achieve strategic autonomy and increased resilience for European payments
3. To foster an integrated, competitive and innovative payments ecosystem
4. To support the international role of the euro

Eurosystem sets out comprehensive strategy for future of European payments

The European Central Bank (ECB) is the central bank of the European Union countries which have adopted the euro. Our main task is to maintain price stability in the euro area and so preserve the purchasing power of the single currency.

Justiinsa ”wolttasin” ruokaa kun on krapula ja kaikkea. Mietin, ettĂ€ meneekö sovelluksella annetut tipit tyypille, joka on jĂ€lleenvuorkannut oman duuninsa jolekin. En antanut tippiĂ€. Aina oon antanu jotain 5 e per kuljetus.

Another thought of the day.

Why don’t phones come with a security feature that lets you set up an alternative unlock code that does open the device but presents a false dummy interface with content that looks real but is not yours? This could save lives at US border control today.

Thank you everyone who attended the #demoscene talk at #eurofurence today! The fact that we managed to fill an even larger room than we had at NFC with audience members excites me a lot about how much interest there is in the demoscene as a whole!

I unfortunately forgot to show the final statistics from the poll I linked during the talk, but here it is in image form.

There were a lot of talented people sitting in that audience, and I think you should all explore taking part in the demoscene, it's a really fun way to express yourself, or work as a team to show off your skills to a huge audience of like minded people.

Maybe some day, if there's enough interest, we can host a mini demo-party at a furry con!

In the artist's lounge we got an old Amiga which was used for the demoscene panel and there is DeluxePaint on there. People are experimenting with it right now. This is really cool and I'm honestly interested if they can get the hang of it and make some art.
