Open Source Hiding in Plain Sight


On the podcast, [Tom] and I were talking about the continuing saga of the libogc debacle. [Tom] has been interviewing some of the principals involved, so he’s got some first-hand perspective on it all – you should really go read his pieces. But the short version is that an old library that many Nintendo game emulators use appears to have cribbed code from both and open-source real-time operating system called RTEMS, and the Linux kernel itself.

You probably know Linux, but RTEMS is a high-reliability RTOS for aerospace. People in the field tell me that it’s well-known in those circles, but it doesn’t have a high profile in the hacker world. Still, satellites run RTEMS, so it’s probably also a good place to draw inspiration from, or simply use the library as-is. Since it’s BSD-licensed, you can also borrow entire functions wholesale if you attribute them properly.

In the end, an RTOS is an RTOS. It doesn’t matter if it’s developed for blinking LEDs or for guiding ICBMs. This thought got [Tom] and I to thinking about what other high-reliability open-source code is out there, hidden away in obscurity because of the industry that it was developed for. NASA’s core flight system came instantly to mind, but NASA makes much of its code available for you to use if you’re interested. There are surely worse places to draw inspiration!

What other off-the-beaten-path software sources do you know of that might be useful for our crowd?

Now this is interesting and positive. I firmly believe that user profiling and use of those profiles for ads and content selection should be banned. Can this verdict be the catalyst?

The biggest domestic threats in the west (white supremacy, anti-government militias, etc) exist under conservative banners and conservatism allows these threats to thrive for short-term political benefit.

This will destroy our society if allowed to continue.

The image shows the Local Group Policy Editor window open on a computer screen. The window is titled "Local Group Policy Editor" and is divided into several sections. The left side of the window contains a tree view of the policy settings, with the selected node labeled "All Settings." The right side of the window displays a list of policy settings with their names and states. The selected setting is "Century interpretation for Year 2000," and its state is "Not configured." The list includes various settings related to file downloads, add-ons, memory dumps, and network browsing, all marked as "Not configured." The top menu bar includes options such as File, Action, View, and Help. The bottom of the window shows a pagination indicator, displaying "1806 of 1812 setting(s) shown." The overall layout is typical of a Windows administrative tool, with a clean and organized interface.

I recently bought a couple of YubiKey security keys. These support FIDO2/U2F, integrate well with #SSH

In researching how to do this, I found a lot of pages online with poor instructions. In many cases, they suggested insecure practices.

It turns out this whole process is quite easy. But I wanted to understand how it worked.

So, I figured it out, set it up myself, and then ut up a new, comprehensive page on my website: complete.org/easily-using-ssh-… .

Rest in Peace José Mujica "When you buy something, you're not paying money for it. You're paying with the hours of life you had to spend earning that money. The difference is that life is one thing money can't buy. Life only gets shorter. It's pitiful to waste one's life and freedom that way." #3E

Former Uruguay president José "Pepe" Mujica, a former guerrilla and revolutionary admired for his humility, has died at the age of 89. Known as "the world's poorest president", Mujica gained global respect for donating most of his salary to charity, humanist philosophy, and modest lifestyle.

Louis Theroux's BBC documentary on the Israeli settler movement in the West Bank fails to recognize how it is a natural extension of over a century of Zionist settler colonization.
