10 Years of Let's Encrypt #Certificates
letsencrypt.org/2025/12/09/10-…
Mindblowing statistics of this extremely important project, delivering #security and #privacy for billions of people, protecting us from all sorts of attacks.
Still a shame that even important #infrastructure like that is depending on #corporate #money and not #publicmoney.

10 Years of Let's Encrypt Certificates
On September 14, 2015, our first publicly-trusted certificate went live. We were proud that we had issued a certificate that a significant majority of clients could accept, and had done it using automated software.letsencrypt.org

The hallmark of today's oligarchs is fascistic psychopathy
P'pathy is a personality disorder - so far incurable
Power is everything (money just a means)
Utterly dangerous is the absence of empathy &, hence, of conscience
Traditionally shunned, they've used the internet (for all its goods) to organise,
destroying the very conditions that enabled human flourishing in the Holocene
Solution: stop handing them power
Even chimps throw out bully leaders

Yesterday, @Basmitharts mentioned that the Lancia Fulvia was one of the few other users to a V4 engine besides the recently featured Fords and Saabs. The Lancia’s engines had a much narrower V angle of twelve degrees, compared with the 60 degrees between the cylinder banks of the British and German Ford V4s. I saw this Fulvia coupé at Techno Classica Essen in 2013.

Leider einer der wenigen Politiker, die wirklich was verändern wollten. Kann man von der jetzigen Regierung nicht sagen, im Gegenteil: die machen jetzt mehr kaputt als die Regierung, gegen die sie vorher opponiert hatten.
Und die SPD wundert sich immer noch, warum sie keiner mehr wählt.
Steigbügelhaltern kann man halt nicht mehr helfen und sind unwählbar.

Völlig unabhängig davon, ob man dem Kurs von #Habeck zustimmte oder nicht (ganz, garnicht oder teilweise), ich war immer tief beieindruckt davon, dass er nicht nur in seinen Reden, sondern auch in Videos versucht hat, seine Position zu erklären.
Als Wissenschaftler finde ich das ja sowieso gut, aber in seiner Position macht man sich damit ja massiv angreifbar: alles wird zerrissen, neu geschnitten, aus dem Zusammenhang genommen... Und trotzdem hat er es gemacht. Respekt. Gegenentwurf zu Hinterzimmer und "alternativlos".
Ich will in einer Demokratie leben, in der erklären nicht nur normal ist, sondern Minimum!
Ich glaube dem Habeck kein Wort, weil seine Taten immer etwas anderes sagten. Schon als Umweltminister in S-H.

There is no place for the water to go.
There is also a large volume of untreated waste that is now being moved around by the water, increasing the risk of diseases.
“People are living in it, people are moving in it, people are using blankets and kitchen items that have been polluted by this water.”

#uk folks might want to join me in signing this petition: Edinburgh wants to open 2 #ai #datacentres each polluting as much CO2 as the airport does!
And at first they didn't even consider doing an environmental impact assessment!

Edinburgh Council - require Environmental Impact Assessments for massive new data centres
Two massive data centres are being planned for the outskirts of Edinburgh. Each one would emit more than 200,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions. That’s roughly the same as all the emissions from Edinburgh international airport.Foxglove

in reply to Karl Voit • • •Too bad projects like #CACert failed to really establish.
I would have hoped rolling out self-signed certs with #DNSSEC validation would have been considered by browsers as an additional and viable solution completely avoiding CA-hierarchies.
