@skinnylatte And those Outer Sunset Chinese would agree with one of my Chinese history professors that Japan = Sung China and Korea = Ming/Qing China

@skinnylatte regarding portion size, I can eat at least 3 meals with a Ranch99 combo lunch. I just need to add some leftover rice and some kimchee for acid to stretch the entrees.
And the deli ladies will look at you weird if don't try and overflow the containers.

Unwanted or unpredictable automation is worse than no automation.

@douglasvb The next few passes (89 minute intervals) are over Eurasia at night, so hopefully we'll see some good social media posts.

Stanford has acquired the prototype of a revolutionary Chinese typewriter long believed lost and known only from its patent documents. https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2025/05/mingkwai-chinese-typewriter-prototype-stanford-libraries via @metafilter

How soon before we begin troubleshooting systemd-acme?

@dvl I've been playing with blocky on my roving laptops when I'm not on my home network. I like playing with DNS level blocking, YMMV.

Today is a sad day. I decided it is faster to edit and reboot my linux laptop to make connman/NetworkManager DNS changes than fight systemd restart.

@douglasvb It happens with regularity, here's one I remember

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/pkfail-secure-boot-bypass-lets-attackers-install-uefi-malware/

@douglasvb And for anyone out there reading along, remember that the UEFI partition is on FAT32 and relies on signatures for validation.

@douglasvb yep, physical access attacks, but in my calculation it's the same class as BIOS/UEFI. initrd images can be forensically collected or signed so having /boot unencrypted is not such a big deal, IMHO.

@douglasvb As for disk encryption, you have to deal with GRUB + initrd on /boot and then the real kernel and / filesystem. It's straightforward if you leave /boot unencrypted and then mount an encrypted / partition.
If you're going to have multiple partitions and experiment, I'd leave /boot unencrypted just so you have a stable recovery environment. There are ways to have GRUB mount encrypted volumes but they may be brittle. (I thought about encrypted /boot on Linux but then realized I would need to write and print out documentation since I would have forgotten how I configured it 2 years into the future.)
If you need well documented FDE it's the two popular OSes or FreeBSD w/ZFS.

@ai6yr I would use "stone" as an AI test.

@exador23 @504DR the ecoli in spinach was traced back to feral pigs, so the growers have to check for animal tracks now too.

@504DR This group (fresh greens) rely on human labor for weeding so they're less reliant on herbicides + GMO staple crops. I'm sure they use pesticides and fungicides, but not sure about GMO.

@ai6yr Did anyone read the article? It's a profile of lmga.ca.gov which started self-regulating after the bagged spinach deaths.

'... LGMA as a “coalition of farmers overseen by the California Department of Food and Agriculture who’ve agreed to adopt food-safety protocols sooner and more stringent than the government’s. Ninety-four percent of the nation’s leafy greens are covered by this agreement.”'

https://lgma.ca.gov/

And it's fitting that it's on a Bombardier aircraft. It's only an Airbus because Boeing knee-capped Bombardier with tariffs.

@ai6yr I'm glad I'm not your neighbor or I might be tempted to buy it and convert to a BEV.
