@kravietz this is a general problem with IT procurement in governments around the world. See:

It took these retards in European capitals 5 years and Turkey opening borders to even consider something that was obvious from the very beginning and desperately requested by the people on the ground... 🤦♂️

If you're one of those people, please register and turn up to vote, if only so you can vote "yes" in the #cannabis referendum. If you know one of these people, please make sure they know how to register and vote and encourage them to do so.

Been playing with #ethereum stablecoin deposit apps oasis.app and app.aave.com.
Ease of use, speed and low transactional costs make them a viable replacement for $$$ especially cross-border.
Perfectly happy to get paid in DAI for infosec consulting now.
Just watched "Dark Waters" (2019) about #DuPont toxic waste dumps.
One important fact: in many countries in the world no company would share incriminating documents voluntarily, based on a court order.
Strong and independent judiciary is fundamental to democracy.

I have built a Searx instance with Spotify integration. So if there are people interested in using it to listen to songs let me know. If multiple people use it they can't track us. This is more for people who do not care about recommendations but more just want to be able to search and play songs they like.

I'm a bit between epochs apparently - I can't respond "I personally did" to most, but I do understand what they mean.

"When you take #VentureCapital, it is not a matter of if you’re going to sell your users, you already have. It’s called an exit plan. And no investor will give you venture capital without one. In the myopic and upside-down world of venture capital, exits precede the building of the actual thing itself. It would be a comedy if the repercussions of this toxic system were not so tragic."

Another great essay debunking the 'using #Signal from the Goggle Prey Store or the iThing store is the best private chat solution available' trope:

About a dozen of mine were affected. Renewal takes ~3 minutes. Beauty of the ACME protocol 👍 https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/revoking-certain-certificates-on-march-4/114864
"If you're struggling to differentiate between which search results are paid for vs which are 'organic' user-centric results, then that's quite deliberate.
Here's how #Google has gradually made it harder for people to differentiate between the two." https://searchengineland.com/search-ad-labeling-history-google-bing-254332
Yet another reason to always use PyYAML SafeLoader class for #Python - remote code execution in FullLoader class https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml/pull/386
It's in Czech but I don't think it requires translation :)
