BeaconDB just hit 10 *million* WiFi networks!!! 🎉

I honestly can't believe the amount of data that has been submitted (thank you!), and I'm really excited to see what the future holds for this project ❀

Now that there are more contributors, I've increased the detail shown on the map by another level: beacondb.net/map/

in reply to BeaconDB

60,000 reports uploaded here and counting! I love how easy it is! It would be great to get Neostumbler to update the default url from MLS to yours if they haven't already to make it even easier for new contributors!

So happy that BeaconDB exists so we can still have privacy friendly smartphone location services, even post Mozilla.

Thank you for making this happen!

Looking forward to my 100k / 1 millionth report uploaded eventually!

Conservatives recently gathered in Washington to explain how they would rule the world in a second Trump term. The result was incoherent, occasionally frightening, and often very dumb.

ROCKED. He was rocked in a stone kitchen; a saying meant to convey the idea that the person spoken of is a fool, his brains having been disordered by the jumbling of his cradle.

Commercial real estate investors and big tech CEOs when they landed on “innovation from spontaneous hallway conversations” as the reason to be in the office 5 days a week.

I've been in a lot of offices.

Most hallway conversations are about food.






Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Tuesday's #election may decide whether #Ukraine stands strong against Russia’s invasion or if thousands, like Olya, must flee.

Read The Counteroffensive's first fictional story, imagining Ukraine's future if #Trump wins.

Gauza gutxi eskertzeko EEBBei... baina bada gauza bat estatubatuar arropa marketan ikusten dudana eta benetan eskertzen dudana da, alkondara edo jaketan betaurrekoak eskegita jartzeko bularreko poltsikoan jartzen duten zulotxoa da...

this weekend that China-backed hackers have compromised the wiretap systems of several U.S. telecom and internet providers, likely in an effort to gather intelligence on Americans.
\
The wiretap systems, as mandated under a 30-year-old U.S. federal law, are some of the most sensitive in a telecom or internet provider’s network, typically granting a select few employees nearly unfettered access to information about their customers, including their internet traffic and browsing histories.
\
But for the technologists who have for years sounded the alarm about the security risks of legally required backdoors, news of the compromises are the “told you so” moment they hoped would never come but knew one day would.
\
“I think it absolutely was inevitable,” Matt Blaze, a professor at Georgetown Law and expert on secure systems, told TechCrunch regarding the latest compromises of telecom and internet providers.

I moved my bots last night, thinking there was a hard deadline to leave botsin.space. l looked at GoToSocial and it was too complex for me to figure out before midnight and a VPS somewhere would cost more per month than masto.host for my three bots, so I established bots.blakeeskin.com.

Solid State Batteries will reach mass production in the next 2-3 years, lowering the price for electricity storage to (far) below €100/kWh while also offering more safety. US and European firms are however not part of this upcoming megamarket, because we prefer to waste our energy (pun intended) on glorified autocorrect solutions and deepfake (moving) pix. #SarcasmButOnlyHalf 1/5
