#D&D session last night established that abominable yeti testicles are Himalayan oysters.

In other news all characters in the party have now had near death experiences.

Bleeping Computer really burying the lede here by calling an RCE just prompt injection. Big water is wet headline.

If deodorant was dangerous everybody would have armpit cancer y'all just dumb as rocks

“The people you meet on the internet aren’t real friends” is extremely boomer coded.

ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.

Got Cane's on the way home. Day rescued. We're so fucking back.

An Antonov AN-124 from its right side, seen parked on the tarmac at MDT / Harrisburg. Note the "Be Brave Like Mykolaiv" text on the nose cone.

Unexpectedly I did see this on the tarmac at MDT a couple days ago. An AN-124, one of 26 in civilian operation, parked in one of the last places I'd expect to see a rare aircraft.

Currently experiencing Pure Michigan ^tm. (Scenic views of DTWs parking garage after missing a connecting flight and getting five hours of sleep in a Howard Johnsons)

Stay humble you ****

Proud to support The Arsenal every day of my life but days like today and results like this are pure, unadulterated happiness.

A Sterling goal to close this out would be hilarious and also peak Willian energy #arsenal

Clock End Upper singing: “Stay humble, Haaland, stay humble!”

KING KAAAAAAAAAAI!

Get Ethan on. Dont let up. Put these fucks to the sword.

You are not the only one who feels like you're losing your fucking mind.

#dnd thanks to a nat 1 persuasion roll this week, we determined that under Dwarf law the mine is the property of the claimholder but anything exposed to the sky is open to the public.
Suddenly the spell Move Earth has some very funny implications.

Hate that it's attached to a Jan. 6 case but it's still a huge privacy and security win.

If I read this correctly, albeit not a lawyer; even if forced to put a thumb on the screen, that act is "tantamount to answering a series of questions about ownership or control over the phone, including how it could be opened and by whom." which is now protected by the 5th.

Oh that's real dumb. The buttons need to be easy to use by muscle memory and giving up 70% of the interactable space is really bad UX. They should've just made a single "edit mode" toggle elsewhere on the same page.

Seems like a good reason to spin up a HomeAssistant box if time/interest permits.

Also with all his resources and free time he could just simply get good at video games. It’s a pretty low bar compared to the other things he pretends to be good at.

Picture of my home 15U server rack, slightly tidied up from its prior iteration. Patch panel and SFP+ connections are still a bit messy but making the best of a weird design decision on the switch that biases all 24 ports to the right side.

Took apart the household rack to map out the actual drop numbers in my notes and add in a UNAS Pro. Not the prettiest patch panel work you'll ever see, but it'll do until I upgrade the switch someday.

FC Nantes fans letting their feelings known to French professional league, broadcasters - and Qatar - before their match against Monaco on Friday night (2-2). "How can we make people interested in football again?" - "Move games to midweek?" - "De-localise games to Qatar?" - "Respect supporters?"

It is possible to do this responsibly with cryptographic protocols that preserve user privacy, but not without direct investment by the US govt in an Estonian-style cryptographic universal ID system.

Until then, it will be impossible to perform this without dramatically violating adults' 1A rights.
