How do you hear "SQLite" when you read it?

Dear Hackers,

Public libraries, and libraries in general, are not your enemies. They are some of the last places in the world where people can go, hang out, and do things without any expectation of money changing hands. They are a physical manifestation of file sharing and a corporeal form of torrenting. That in mind, libraries are chronically underfunded and they're currently under attack by right-wing politicians and fascists, but I suppose I repeat myself there.

As such, they make lousy targets for ransomware attacks. Chances are, you're not likely to see any money because they have no money to pay you. All you've done is hurt those who are less fortunate than you, you've hurt children, you've hurt students, and you've made no progress towards "sticking it to the man" or whatever.

For god's sake, leave the library alone. Or maybe, come visit one sometime.

Thanks,
Cyberpunk Librarian

Microsoft Recall is even worse than you think.

It has apparently been snuck into the Edge web browser even if you don't have the Windows version that adds it.

h/t @laimis who pointed out to me that #Recall starts with Windows 11 24H2; I only have 23H2.

BUT I found it in my Edge Browser which updated today to Version 125.0.2535.51.
The setting is:
{3 dots button} =>
Settings =>
Privacy Search and Services =>
Save screenshots of sites for history
(all the way down, default on).

Happy Thursday - a new short story for you.

We all hate the AI. Everyone knows how it controls us, how its algorithms invade every decision in our lives, controlling what we see, reading our secrets, digesting our dreams and turning them into weapons to use against us. We all hate the AI, but nobody has been willing to do anything about it. Until now. Until us. Before it was cool to smash your phones, we were out here cracking its firewalls, documenting weaknesses, collecting and inventing exploits to use against it. A decade in preparation for this operation.
