I'm a proud member of the "'hard no' movement against AI" that believes "there is something grotesque about these simulacra, the people who push them on us, this whole affair."
It's not just that genAI is a theftbot. Not just that it's being used to destroy *everything*. It is *deeply* anti-human.

Photo of the Day 11th May 2025.
C-GLRN, Boeing 737-8SH, SunWing, decelerating hard after landing on Runway 23 Right at Manchester Airport, 12th October 2019., as seen from one of the South Side mounds.
This wasn't operating across The Pond, but rather doing a series of flights on behalf of TUI.
TUI regularly borrowed Sunwing planes for the summer season, with TUI planes going the other way in winter.

Tulsi Gabbard reused the same weak password on multiple accounts for years
Summary
Leaked records show that Tulsi Gabbard, now director of national intelligence, reused the same weak password across personal accounts for years, including during her congressional tenure on sensitive committees.
The password, containing “shraddha,” a name reportedly linked to a controversial religious group, appeared in multiple data breaches.
Though not used on government accounts, the reuse violated basic cybersecurity practices. Gabbard’s team dismissed scrutiny as “bigoted” and politically motivated.
Experts warn such behavior poses serious security risks, especially given Gabbard's current role overseeing U.S. intelligence and national security operations.

Open Source ELINT Accidentally from NASA
You normally think of ELINT — Electronic Intelligence — as something done in secret by shadowy three-letter agencies or the military. The term usually means gathering intelligence from signals that don’t contain speech (since that’s COMINT). But [Nukes] was looking at public data from NASA’s SMAP satellite and made an interesting discovery. Despite the satellite’s mission to measure soil moisture, it also provided data on strange happenings in the radio spectrum.
While 1.4 GHz is technically in the L-band, it is reserved (from 1.400–1.427 GHz) for specialized purposes. The frequency is critical for radio astronomy, so it is typically clear other than low-power safety critical data systems that benefit from the low potential for interference. SMAP, coincidentally, listens on 1.41 GHz and maps where there is interference.
Since there aren’t supposed to be any high-power transmitters at that frequency, you can imagine that anything showing up there is probably something unusual and interesting. In particular, it is often a signature for military jamming since nearby frequencies are often used for passive radar and to control drones. So looking at the data can give you a window on geopolitics at any given moment.
The data is out there, and a simple Python script can pull it. We imagine this is the kind of data that only a spook in a SCIF would have had just a decade or two ago.
Jamming tech is secretive but powerful. SMAP isn’t the only satellite to have its mission unexpectedly repurposed.

DNS...it's always DNS!
So, yesterday evening I've setup pfsense DNS resolver to BLOCK my clients from using external DNS. I used the inverted allow rule, to allow 53 and 853 nowhere but to pfsense (self).
Everything seemed to work perfectly, until today. No client was able to reach the internet. (Maybe the "states" where still in effect yesterday evening? I dunno why it worked...
So I was diving deeper and learned the following:
If I BLOCK DNS to everywhere, except to pfsense, it does not mean that it is automatically ALLOWED to pfsense.
Therefore one has to create an explicit rule to ALLOW 53 & 853 to pfsense (self).
In Short:
By default, any traffic is allowed to Internet.
DNS rules:
a) BLOCK 53 & 853 to everywhere (Internet)
and
b) ALLOW 53 & 853 to pfsense (self)

The image is a collage divided into four sections. The top left section features the stylized text "RGL" in a bold, white font with a dotted pattern on the letter "L." The top right section shows a group of people in a crowded indoor setting, possibly at a concert or event, with a brick wall in the background. The bottom left section depicts a man in a dark setting, focused on playing a keyboard, with a blue hue suggesting a stage or performance environment. The bottom right section contains a white star on a gray background. The overall color scheme is a mix of white, gray, and blue tones, with the images providing a contrast between the text and the visual elements.

Useful article from @PetaPixel about in-the-field photo backups using a smartphone. I actually use an iPad now, but the idea is the same: a mobile device, USB hub & removable storage is your friend.

Certainly better than the way I used to do it. Backing up to an iPod worked, but drained the battery of both camera & iPod. Which is a problem when you don't have a reliable way to recharge (that kerosene lantern is there because the power was out, yet again).
