Exciting progress on making #Gitea full-blown member of the #fediverse

With 5k Euro already available for #foss contributors, a grant application to get #funding is being prepared.

https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/16518

#NGI Atlantic.eu is a likely grant to apply for, stimulating cross-atlantic EU/US collaboration.

#Golang developers once again take note!

This is your opportunity to work on a great project and part of initiative driven by #fedeproxy that'll focus on federating even more code forges.

#TIL The oldest seafloor is under one of the smallest seas: the Medeterranian.

That's the relict remnant of the Tethys Ocean, and parts date to 280 million years ago.

That's a stripling compared to the oldest land rocks, found in the Jack Hills region of Australia and dated to 4.39 billion years ago, only 150 million years after the Earth itself formed.

Continents tend generally to be older geologically than oceans, due to how tectonic plates move and evolve, with oceanic plates typically subducting back into the mantle after only a few hundred million years.

Фейсбук напомнил что четыре года назад я был в Нью-Йорке, и был свидетелем диалога уровня "криминального чтива" при попытке оставить прокатную машину на паркинге в Бронксе.

Oh wow, Germany's healthcare system is adopting Matrix as the base layer for their secure communications system.

And the second major CDN outage in a few months is also affecting 0% of the websites I want to visit.

Hey, #Fediverse, do you use (say, at least once per week) any Mozilla products?

Context: some people are claiming "nobody uses Mozilla's products anymore". I'd like to see if that's actually true.

Please boost.

I am helping with a CyberSec class for high school kids. They are faster than we thought and we need some more CFT/exploitable services we can have them hack on if anyone knows of freely usable challenges. Password cracking, SQL injection, XSS, buffer overlows, etc.

@kravietz anyone with a patched kernel, feel free to send me a PR https://notabug.org/themusicgod1/linux-libre

So! Has anyone set up an NSO Group look-alike honeypot website, Yes Men style, to try to catch any potential new clients that just heard about #Pegasus?
