Hey Xanny, why are you moving to Linux?

Because of garbage like this: youtube.com/watch?v=G9FRadIkkE…

Microsoft is sliding Recall into every machine running Windows 11, not just Copilot+ machines. I suspected as much, but just wanted to share this.

#October is #CyberSecurity awareness month, so I decided to put the #OpenSource smart thermostats of #sale. Pick up a #thermostat that won't be hacked because some corporate #cloud was breached, won't be discontinued and unsupported in a few years, and won't collect data about you and sell it to the highest bidders.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is now in conversation with the President of the United States Joe Biden, at the prime minister's office in Jerusalem," Netanyahu's office said in a statement.

The call is their first in weeks, a conversation that comes as Israel expands its ground incursion into Lebanon and considers how to respond to Iran’s recent ballistic missile attack.

Vice President Kamala Harris also joined the call, the White House said.

I was kinda shocked with my Roku set had a McDonald's ad as part of the screen saver. I was militantly annoyed before, but now I'm thinking about how to root it. Or at least, screw with DNS so it won't do this.

I mean... You can buy a monitor as television. You can not connect your snoopy TV to the net? Honestly, tho, it's like americans wished this on themselves.

The European Union said Wednesday it had launched a "humanitarian air bridge" to fly aid to Lebanon as fighting rages between Israel and Hezbollah.

The European Commission said three initial flights were scheduled to carry supplies from Italy and Dubai to the conflict-wracked country, with the first arriving in Beirut on Friday.

Bought a cheap Conspiracy Theories book from a charity shop and this photo of apparently a #UFO flying over Venice (I think ) was inside seemingly used as a bookmark. It's on old Kodak paper, but I am not convinced it's a real photo and not a publication insert designed to mess with heads 🤷🏻‍♂️🛸
