Massive #telescope will map the #universe and provide an evolving record of the Solar System and distant #stars.

The #Rubin #Observatory will map the entire southern sky every 3–4 nights, observing each spot around 800 times over its 10 years of planned operations.

Eight science collaborations will sift through the data it produces, each focusing on different questions, from mapping the history of the universe and its dark-matter contents to tracking potentially dangerous objects in the Solar System.

The observatory will also capture an unprecedented number of transient and variable astronomical events in real time — stars whose brightness changes unpredictably, for example, and those that explode or suddenly disappear.

Efforts like this redeem my belief that most humans are positive forces in the universe; those that aren’t are not representative of what we can become.

@jadag88 This is what we can do if we choose to be more than primitive bipedal primates.

The potential is there even though many of us, unfortunately, refuse that choice.



Anti-war protesters have taken to the streets of Canada to call for an end to the attacks on Iran.

The nation is home to more than 200,000 Iranians, representing different views. But this time, their message was unified.

TIL: Axel Health (axelhealth.com/) is still using Debian 8 - From 2015 💀

I don't know if they are actually using it only for the displays (that show patient numbers etc) or for the central configuration server, but in either case that's diabolical.

Holy shit

I actively refuse to look at the security of the healthcare systems which keep me alive because literally EVERY time I have checked it scares me deeply
in reply to CyberFrog

once saw a dentist chair running outdated windows 7 (yes, after EOL) with an anti-virus security alert popup which was ignored, and a horribly outdated Java version installed that was begging for updates

this person was doing minor surgery with that machine daily, I had no choice but to let them use a probably malware'd device on my face, or leave and pray the next guy isn't as stupid

nothing about this is fun

in reply to CyberFrog

that is absolutely the normal state of IT systems in healthcare, sadly
in reply to vxo

you have tons of unmaintainable stuff that's still in service because it's all $250,000+ machines that the manufacturer turned around and washed their hands of two days before it shipped from the warehouse and the budget or other resources to manufacture and obtain a replacement somehow don't exist
in reply to vxo

on one side of this, the good news is that a lot of the devices have no reason to be online for normal functionality and can be air gapped to hell

on the other side though, even if a network is air gapped, lateral movement of scum like ransomware can still disable the devices and if nobody took a disk image of it while it was still working, it's toast

in reply to vxo

I don't really consider hospitals to ever be correctly air-gapped because in reality there are like 6,000 endpoints literally a single hop away from the "air gapped" devices with full internet access, and hacking the firmware of something like an insulin or drug pump is laughably easy because they simply ignored computer security for 30 years, you can still buffer overflow to RCE on those things without any issues

@pluralistic@mamot.fr wrote about this in 2014/15 and from the new research I've seen very little has improved since then

funny you should mention that, a few years ago I experimented with smuggling malware inside of the DICOM format, it bypassed every available anti-virus online when I stashed a KNOWN bad sample of ransomware inside the document as a binary polygot

description:


Author and rehabber Terry Masear wants to save every injured hummingbird in Los Angeles. Terry takes in the most fragile of patients through her volunteer hummingbird rescue, but the path to survival is fraught with uncertainty and drama. Over the course of Sally Aitken’s intimate and moving documentary, we become invested in Terry’s hummingbird patients — including Cactus, Jimmy, Wasabi, Raisin, and Mikhail — celebrating their small victories and lamenting their tiny tragedies. Through the eyes of America’s busiest bird rehabilitator, each bird becomes memorable, mighty and heroic. As she nurtures the wounded hummingbirds back to health, Terry finds herself on her own transformative journey, unraveling a visually captivating and magical tale of love, healing, and the delicate beauty in tiny acts of greatness.

it lives! :ablobcatbongo: JVM in Bash

for now it only has ~5 opcodes implemented, and one virtual method (println). So this is literally the minimal amount of Stuff to get a hello world working

RIVM rioolwaarden update.
Met iets opgehoogde waarden t.o.v. die van afgelopen vrijdag, maar met de enige toegevoegde dag (18/6, met 20% van de meetstations) erbij is er toch nog steeds sprake van lichte daling.
