Donald Trump does not think strategically.
Nor does he think historically, geographically, or even rationally.
He does not connect actions he takes on one day to events that occur weeks later.
He does not think about how his behavior in one place will change the behavior of other people in other places.
He does not consider the wider implications of his decisions.
He does not take responsibility when these decisions go wrong.
Instead, he acts on whim and …

Everyone but Trump Understands What He’s Done
Allied leaders know that any positive gesture they make will count for nothing.

✨ SIG-Marcomms and SIG-MSP Joint Meeting Recap ✨
Earlier this month, NRENs gathered in Lisbon for two days of shared learning across two Special Interest Groups (SIGs).

Well, now I feel stupid. I finally figured out why, since upgrading to Debian 13/trixie, there are some websites I couldn't connect to, but only over IPv6, they work fine on their IPv4 address.

I'd for a long time had an IPv4 iptables rule to force the MSS (maximum segment size) on outbound packets to `1400`. But I never put in an equivalent for IPv6.
I use 'jumbo packets' on the LAN between desktop and server, which means an MTU of 4088 (for …

Just to add to my insane home networking difficulties, right now I am online, all clients are working / routing to the internet. Can I connect to OPNsense via HTTP or SSH? Nope. The box just ignores me. I can log in locally and all is fine. WTF? I started a radio stream as a "test" and now poking around, some stuff loads, some doesn't, like 1/2 the internet is out. WTF?

Interesting piece on the fragmenting of digital identities in the sciences. I'm sure mine is scattered all over the place.

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social I’m still having problems with Graphene and Wi-Fi. It’s only with Graphene, not with other Android devices. Apparently, Graphene – and only Graphene – prefers a 2.4 GHz connection. And it switches from 5 GHz to 2.4 GHz shortly after logging in. Which none of the other Android devices do. This is a problem for me because, although the router maintains the connection on 2.4 GHz, it doesn’t connect to the internet at 2.4Ghz.

This is as good a time as any for a thought experiment.
You're in Nazi Germany. You know about the camps, you know what they do, you see the ash fall, you smell it. People who resist alone are killed, some are sent to the camps too. You're afraid to even talk to people about it for fear that they'll turn you in.
You think back to when the camps were being built. You had all the warning signs, but you didn't know how to interpret them. You could believe it would happen. You thought you'd have a chance to vote him out. You thought there might be another way. You thought maybe things would turn out differently if you just sat tight, kept your head down, kept yourself safe.
You see a family being dragged from their home. You know they will be killed. You want to fight, not just for them but for yourself. You opposed Hitler, and at any point you know you could be on the list... Even if you do nothing.
You wish you could rise up, shoot the SS, open the gates, fight it all. You know you aren't alone, but you don't know how to connect with the people who want the same thing.
Using the knowledge we have now, what should you have done in the preceding months and years to connect, to build a community that would open up all paths of resistance?
There were people who resisted. We know it wasn't enough.
Gun laws in Nazi Germany were very similar to US laws in that Nazis were largely free to own guns and everyone else was not. Unlike the US, where "others" have historically controlled using the fear that they might be randomly executed, Germany did codify it. Red flag laws were one more step in the US towards that codification, and there will be more.
When Nazis were taking away those guns, the social networks didn't exist to make resistance possible for most folks. But some Jews were able to resist.
It wasn't the guns that made the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising possible, though they definitely helped. The Warsaw Ghetto uprising was made possible by labor organizing in the precessing years.
If there were more uprisings like that, the Holocaust could have been stopped if not prevented. Social networks make resistance possible. Guns are only useful tools to resist authoritarianism *after* you build a community able to support that resistance, and they are only one of many tools made useful by that community.
Getting guns is easy, and not always necessary. Building community is hard. Guns won't keep you safe. Community will.
Single acts of resistance may slow the machine down, but to actually bring down a monster you need to be able to attack more than once. You need a society of resistance. If you are afraid now, build that. Talk to people while it's still safe to do so. Ask them where their red line is. Talk to neighbors. Figure out your network.
Take the steps you need now to keep your neighbors safe, to keep yourself safe.

Now is a good time for doing crime
Eons ago, in 2012, I had a weird experience.
My iPhone suddenly shut down.
When I restarted it, I found it was totally reset—clean, like a new device.
This was the early days of iOS, so I wasn’t too concerned until I went to connect it to my computer to restore it from a backup.
But when I flipped open the lid of my laptop, it too was mid-restart.
And then, suddenly, the screen went gray. It was being remotely wiped.

Now is a good time for doing crime
