ShadowTrooper

I am an US Army veteran with a passion for keeping my brain churning. After the Army, I lived a life dabbling in nuclear, technology, security in various forms, and some other things.

A couple of quotes that I like:

"Why is it that those who have never fought in a battle are so eager to be in one?" - Shogun

"We understand the fabric of reality only by understanding theories that explain it. And since they explain more than we are immediately aware of, we can understand more than we are immediately aware that we understand." - David Deutsch

Currently clean on OpSec

Well, I guess we all saw this coming given the new "leader" of our country.

I hope everyone remembers the people Boeing assassinated during this time and all other times that we are currently unaware of.

Things like this just continue to show who we really are. And it's not a good thing.

Well I guess September 11th is far enough past that it is okay to do a bunch of business with Saudi Arabia now? Cool cool!

Minimum requirements
#Windows vs Linux

The image is divided into two sections, each with a different operating system logo and a list of minimum requirements. The top section features the Windows logo and lists the following requirements: "64-bit CPU, 4GB RAM, UEFI, Secure Boot, TPM, Internet, Microsoft Account, 64GB storage, Valid license." The bottom section shows the Linux logo, represented by a penguin, with the requirement "Electricity."

The Texas Senate has voted to put intense restrictions on campus protest, including limiting the amount of noise they can make, what hours and days of the year protest is allowed, and banning protesters from wearing masks.

@cwicseolfor agreed. I wake feeling the same at times.

At least it's still cheap on the streets. My VA docs don't care how I get it. They just recommend it to me. So I get it the cheapest way that I can.

Florida is trying to lead the way here by approving a bill that lets veterans obtain their medical marijuana license for free.

While this is a good first step, it's not what veterans are calling for fully.

The prescriptions for medical marijuana must also be covered. The registration fee is not a big deal. It's the roughly $500/month for the medicine that veterans cannot afford.

Who remembers when Martha Stewart made glittered nuts?

We need to bring those back.

Young people deserve the right to privacy. Florida’s SB 868 is a dangerous bill that intends to decrypt teens’ private messages, ban disappearing messages, and allow unrestricted parental access to private messages. Stripping away the safeguards that encryption provides puts everyone at risk. eff.org/deeplinks/2025/04/flor

I was browsing for a decent disk usage analyzer for Arch and came across this. Tested it and like it and want to share it.

"Openwave uses a technology called Razorgate to help prevent spoofed emails and other forms of abuse on their platform, according to their website. Razorgate analyzes emails at multiple layers, from IP addresses and SMTP to content signatures, and uses a policy engine to detect and filter suspicious messages. " .... is what is says online

In the real real, here is a screenshot of one of many messages of me getting spoofed and Openwave's infra is what is being used to do it.

That AI stuff is so bad ass /s

@grob I removed this toot because he dropped out two days after. I believe he was doing it to make himself known to the public because now he's releasing information of how he was treated while in prison and who it was the warped his weak mind that lead to his 1/6 crimes that he committed. And wants to write a book I believe. He is attempting to build of a following.

We are watching him here.

Note for app developers 💻 the future Mastodon 4.4 release will contain an option for server admins to require a minimum age for user sign-up. If enabled, the sign-up API will behave differently. This is a change that some developers will need to know about, so we wanted to tell you about it in advance. More background in the discussion post on our repository. github.com/mastodon/mastodon/d
