Tulsi Gabbard did not alert White House before revoking 37 security clearances


Exclusive: White House only realized afterwards that clearances at the CIA and in Congress had been rescinded

Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, did not inform the White House that her office was revoking the security clearances of 37 people – including top deputies to the CIA director, John Ratcliffe – before it happened last month, according to three people familiar with matter.

The move caused consternation because it resulted in the White House not having an opportunity to closely vet the list before it became public and there appeared to be no paper trail from the president directing the effort, the people said.

As a result, officials only realized after the fact that Gabbard had managed to pull the security clearances of career CIA officials, at least one of whom was a top adviser to Ratcliffe and had worked on some of the US’s most sensitive military operations, the people said.



Ted Cruz says FCC chair sounded like a mafia boss in threats against ABC over Jimmy Kimmel


Cruz is chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, which has oversight jurisdiction over the FCC.

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz says FCC Chairman Brendan Carr sounded like an organized crime boss threatening the ABC network’s broadcasting licenses over comments by late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.

The Texas Republican also emphasized how much he hates what Kimmel said about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk — and how much he likes and works closely with Carr.

Having high-ranking federal officials threaten a network in such a way, however, is “dangerous as hell” because it presents a slippery slope that could end with conservatives facing government censorship down the road, Cruz said.

L’Italvolley di Ferdinando De Giorgi rialza la testa e vola ai quarti di finale dei Mondiali di pallavolo 2025 nelle Filippine. Dopo la sconfitta con il Belgio che aveva fatto tremare le certezze degli azzurri, la nazionale italiana ha battuto l’Argentina con un netto 3-0. Una prestazione di carattere, trascinata dal talento di Alessandro Michieletto, dall’esperienza di Simone Giannelli e dalla concretezza di Yuri Romanò.

The new iPhone is an emblem of our miserable minimalist era


There’s a new iPhone. Again. Improbably, we are on the 17th iteration (give or take) of the product that single-handedly ruins our lives every day with incessant vibrations alerting us to some horrifying calamity, plus every song in the Bruce Springsteen back catalog. Coming up with new features for the never-ending information machines we all keep in our pockets isn’t easy, but this time, Apple managed to develop a big (or should I say small) one. There’s now a thinner iPhone Air, which is being marketed as the thinnest iPhone ever. These gadgets have never exactly been gargantuan, so it’s kind of like identifying the tiniest grain of sand in the desert. Still, people around the world are fascinated by the sheer lack of phone here.

Technology, design, and art are all trending toward a certain scarcity model, prepping us for a lack of bells and whistles, as though both your parents are unemployed and they want you to expect fewer trips to Disneyland. Life on Earth feels more and more like the experience of entering a Sweetgreen – beige, spartan and unobtrusive. Sure, iPhones haven’t gotten cheaper, but they have certainly gotten … lesser. The iPhone Air is so small, I feel like I’ll sit on it and it will slide seamlessly up my rectum, never to be seen again. For some, I’m sure losing your device inside your bowels might be a feature, but I think it’s a rather uncomfortable bug.

Promo film for the world’s first home video game console (1972 Odyssey)


In 1972, this must have felt like stepping into the future. TVs had only ever been passive, and suddenly the screen could respond. Families were seeing their living room sets turn into game machines, with paddles controlling little glowing squares.

Now, the overlays look wild. Plastic sheets taped to the glass to turn dots into tennis courts or haunted houses. It’s clumsy. Also brilliant—an early hack to add color and imagination to an otherwise bare signal. You had to supply the magic yourself, which makes it all the more fascinating today.

And the way Magnavox pitched it. What are you going to do when your kids are snowed in? It was sold like a family appliance. Little did they know that this would be revolutionary.



Protocol handler?


I'm going to register a protocol handler, so links to anywhere on the fedi will be opened in the user's home instance.

developer.mozilla.org/en-US/do…

Has anyone already done this and if so what was the prefix you used? We might as well all use the same thing. I'm thinking web+fedi.

web+ap, which was proposed by Fedilink authors. To my knowledge, it is the most widely adopted proposal

Re: Protocol handler?


Are there implementors of web+ap? I'd be interested in adopting.

I assume the fallback behaviour is to just assume https?

in reply to julian

Fedilinks website lists 3 MastoAPI clients, but the list is incomplete. I saw Fedilinks being mentioned in changelogs of other clients too.

There was also an Akkoma PR, it was closed by the author: akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma/p…. I don't quite understand the reasoning, perhaps @smitten could clarify.

in reply to silverpill

Re: Protocol handler?


The PR comments suggest that making the various changes to the backend were too large to justify, and a front-end only approach would be preferred? smitten@key.portend.place

It raises a good point though, where if you serve web+ap://, it's not understood by clients that are not aware of this scheme. If there were a way a client could communicate whether there is a protocol handler registered, then the server could tailor its response.

in reply to julian

Glad to see more people having this idea! The problems we ran into were in helping the browser understand the address and know where to forward. Each server implements lookup routes differently, so there's not necessarily a generic path that you can trust is available on https on the person's home server, even if you know their home server origin. So in some ways the feature should be offered by your home server software, maybe offering a website that does the handler registration to its known lookup/redirect address.

But that is limiting in a few ways. It's a lot of extra steps for each person to do (browsers' default UI for registering protocols is not obvious or easy). It doesn't carry over to different devices, and if you have more than one home server in some way, you are back dealing with that not-great browser UI to pick which handler you want.

In general people are more accustomed to registering protocols to apps they have installed, especially phone apps. It's much easier to register them there and you don't have to have approval flow UI, but taking that approach moves this whole served handler route out of the backend again, so we have to start thinking more along the lines of web+ap-compatible servers that handler clients know how to call or bounce to.

superpaturnie del sabato senza grossa ispirazione cosmica


Oggi è sabato, e quindi è proprio un momento adattissimo per le riflessioni… Non perché è solo fortuitamente capitato che oggi fosse sabato, E contemporaneamente io sono piena di disperazione, no no… È proprio che il giorno è intrinsecamente ideale per le riflessioni, per motivi cosmici che neanche io sono in grado di decifrare ma che, viste tutte le cose cosanti, sono necessariamente veri. Questo perché ho realizzato un dubbio — o meglio, esso mi è tornato in mente nella pratica di questi giorni — che mi manda fuori di testa: per quale razza di motivo, meno sono distratta e meno mi viene da scrivere??? 🤥

Oh, questa cosa mi fa incazzare veramente (e non direi più del dovuto come al solito, perché qui la cosa è dovutissima), perché, a parte l’essere semplicemente sconveniente, mi sembra contro-intuitiva: non dovrebbe essere il caso che, più si è in condizione di concentrazione, e più le cose dovrebbero uscire? Intendo sia idee per scrivere, che attimi vibranti per farlo. …O, forse, semplicemente la cosa non funziona trasversalmente come a me sembra che dovrebbe, e quindi, se sono estremamente concentrata sui momenti epici allora non posso riuscire ad esserlo anche su quelli scritturepici? 🤔

Più nello specifico, in genere, nei normali giorni l’entropia dell’universo fa gentilmente sì che mi arrivino vari trigger… ma invece, quando per qualche giorno sono fissata sul programmare qualcosa (come l’ultima appina fatta, che oggi ho continuato ad aggiornare, oppure nel breve futuro un firmware per creare una bomba con Arduino, non lo so ancora), le scintille non arrivano. Ma è strano, perché non ho chissà che standard alti io, lo sappiamo bene… nei giorni normali mi vengono idee per le solite belle stronzate semi-riciclate, mentre quando sono concentrata anziché superdistratta neanche queste arrivano. 💥

Probabilmente questa schifezza ha qualcosa a che fare con il ben noto fatto che la noia porta la mente a svarionare e far uscire idee stellari, tra cui quelle per i post pazzi, mentre il non annoiarsi inibisce questo meccanismo… e, dato che quando programmo certamente non mi annoio (almeno, nel 97% dei casi), probabilmente il mio cervello si rifiuta di elaborare oltre. Ma perché mai??? Eppure dovrebbe saperlo bene che se non riesco a scrivere almeno 1 post al giorno qui sopra ci rimango male, quindi dovrebbe impegnarsi un po’ di più a non far accadere ciò, no? 😾

Da un lato vorrei dare la colpa di questo anche al famigerato tempo, come sempre evasivo ed andante solo verso avanti, mai indietro per farne recuperare un po’… ma, a pensarci davvero, non sono sicura che sia davvero lui il principale bastardo in questa questione. Per quanto si, mettermi a programmare dalla mattina alla sera mi rubi una quantità considerevole di tempo, ci sono ogni tanto casi per cui sono completamente distratta, stando in mezzo ad altri impegni vari o eventi frammentati, ma nessuno su cui mi fisso particolarmente, e in un dato giorno di quelli mi escono 2, o anche 3 (ormai più raro questo, “rest in piss superoctt, they say you will not be missed and so they do not deserve to be pleased“) post qui. 😴

Una cosa è certa: il tutto non è miao (non è positivo). Sono quindi sempre alla ricerca di nuovi hackeraggi mentali e, per chiunque me ne proponga (a patto che NON richiedano l’assunzione di sostanze tossico-stupefacenti), sono pronta a provarne. Magari dovrei provare replicare quello che sto attualmente testando per gli animali crostini, ma con un gioco che sia meno diarizzabile, e così facendo potrebbero uscire nuove cose da scrivere qui ogni giorno (non lì eh, qui; il patto col diavolo accidentale riguardo lo scrivere ogni giorno l’ho fatto qui) quasi automaticamente… però troppa roba così rischia di richiedere tempo che non posso sempre allocare, e quindi non posso contarci troppo. 😫

Vabbè, sono cucinata ed evaporata, questo è quanto. Non mi succedono tante cose interessanti quindi, davvero, niente da fare. (Quanto vorrei trasformarmi nel sonno in un peluche di Kuromi gigante, così da non essere più costretta a fare i conti con queste mie paturnie umane troppo umane…)

Venezuela Announces Capture of Alleged DEA Agent With Massive Drug Shipment


According to Cabello, the detainees confessed the shipment was part of a "false flag operation" designed to incriminate Venezuela in international drug trafficking and justify external aggression. "The four detainees are saying they work for the DEA," Cabello told state television, calling the alleged plan a "maneuver for destabilization."

Authorities said the boat originated in Colombia's Guajira region and was connected to a trafficking group called "Los Orientales," allegedly led by Gersio Parra Machado. Cabello argued that the operation demonstrated Venezuela's commitment to combating narcotics without resorting to lethal force. "We don't apply the death penalty," he said, drawing a contrast with U.S. military strikes on alleged drug vessels in the Caribbean.

Just watched Laura Ingraham cheer on ICEgestapo body-slamming a Democrat.

Being violent and cheering it on just comes naturally to them. They are like a fish in water when it comes to their violence - until they think they see a liberal or a Democrat doing it.

Then out come the pearls and there is much clutching.




Computer games you (probably) didn’t know existed!


Love that Metal Jesus is diving deeper into obscure PC games. As a former Sierra employee, he brings a perspective few retro enthusiasts can match.

And honestly, any spotlight on PC gaming history is welcome. It’s a part of retro culture that too often gets pushed aside.

Which blows my mind—because even if you only count DOS and Windows, leaving out Mac, Amiga, and Linux, PC still has the single biggest game library of all time.



Samsung Embeds Israeli Surveillance App on Phones Across MENA


Rabat_ Social Media Exchange (SMEX)—a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing human rights in digital spaces across MENA [Middle East and North Africa] — is warning that Israeli-linked software secretly embedded in Samsung phones across the Middle East and North Africa region poses a serious surveillance threat.

According to SMEX, Samsung’s A and M series devices either come preloaded with the app “Aura” or install it automatically through system updates, without the user’s consent. The application reportedly collects a wide range of personal and device-specific data, including IP addresses, device fingerprints, hardware details, and network information.
