I’ve been helping with .meow, a new project to allow anyone to register a .meow domain name! Profits will go towards helping queer community causes, which is always a nice thing!
Hi there Bluesky! -- let's introduce ourselves :3

We're dotmeow, a queer-run community project to register the gTLD .meow. The profits of this gTLD will go to community causes, turning every domain into queer community support, especially focusing on trans projects and issues.

Dan Goodin urgently needs to be reminded of the definition of a zero-day arstechnica.com/security/202...
Two Windows vulnerabilities, one a 0-day, are under active exploitation

OH: how do I know who I am? First I have an existential crisis of philosophy and meaning, then I remember that I have end user credentials, and just sign my request with them

Our applied cryptography class now has a mascot, Dodo, who attends every session. Here is Dodo next to the Phoenician alphabet, which he likes.

When the demon heart is crying
And the blood is gushing bright
