I do cybersecurity for a living. In my spare time I tinker with electronics, radio, and various computer things. I use Arch by the way.

This is the current US military flights in the air that we know of, as of right now. How much of this is training? I really want to know.

This issue reported on GitHub needs to be on the cover of time. In fact it should be the #TimePersonOfTheYear .

I just spent this evening making a #mixtape and then listening to it on this thing. I have come to the conclusion that we allowed too much of our lives to get integrated into a rectangular piece of glass.

Frustrating responses from my self-hosted #ai this morning. Still need to tune and figure out what model works best on my limited GPU. I use SearXNG for my web search, I think I should switch to Kagi since I pay for it.

I have angered the ancient Halicrafters gods and will be smelling burnt resistor for a week. Don’t ignore those dead bulbs folks.

My Arduino based 10m #wspr transmitter actually works. I thought it didn't, I was just being impatient all this time! [1/2]

Taken earlier today at an antique store that had radioactive red fiesta ware. This was a particularly overachieving soup bowl.

Yes, switch to Microsoft Bing from your current search engine to stay safe online. (I use Kagi btw). :D

If like me you are having serious problems with the way the horrid “glass” design in #ios26 makes all the buttons look like they’re hovering above the screen and thus difficult for your brain to interact, flip these two settings on under the accessibility—>display options in settings. [1/2]

This design is horrible. UI design is dead and this is the stench of its rotting corpse.

I cannot describe how much I despise this.

I got my Clockwork Pi uConsole yesterday and OMG where has this thing been all my life!? Here it is running GQRX driving an RTL-SDR for some software define radio goodness.

I didn’t know it was possible to be in love with a piece of hardware but here I am totally nerding out!

Of all the #Microsoft products I've ever used, PowerShell is by far my favorite tool. I have many great success stories with it. [1/5]

I love it when I'm investigating a suspicious message and the sender is hosted on a VPS provider that accepts cryptocurrency. It means dead end.
