Wow, wrote a new blog post on my site about my experience the last few days installing and ricing FreeBSD lol
#FreeBSD #UNIX

I Installed FreeBSD in 2025 and RICEd it - Jason K. Lees

Kinda sick of Traditional Windows GUI's as I can't really stack exactly what I want on one screen. So I bought a External HDD and downloaded FreeBSD 14.3.

according to the liberation newspaper, documents dating back to a 2014 inspection by the French National Agency for the Security of Computer Systems reported a staggering detail: "the password of the louvre's video surveillance server was simply " louvre. "

Starmerite Labour is literally ran on vibes as the entire premiership seems to be "what our Farage does, we double down!"

Zack Polanski @zackpolanski.bsky.social · 9d

Greens - Lower bills through nationalising our public services, wealth tax on assets and huge increase in investment in our public services.

Labour - ID Cards, random statements about flags and Austerity 2.0.

But apparently the Green Party are the "vibes era?"

Make it make sense!

Big Issue @bigissue.com · 9d

Politics is in a vibes era. Nigel Farage and Zack Polanski are proof of that. But maybe Keir Starmer can take positivity from Ruben Amorim.

Bsky echo chamber meme lives on. Also people dislike because they disagree with it. Not because they don't want to see it.

I feel like "we've made an app that gives people psychosis and here's how many people we've sent insane" is past late-stage capitalism. It's some new stage of previously unforeseen horrors beyond human imagination.

If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on

It scares me that the US is horny for "offensive cyber operations" against China, as if they didn't lay off almost everyone responsible for coordinating cyber defense, decided not to pay the rest, and can't even get their critical infrastructure providers to patch 20 year old vulnerabilities.

Buried in Michigan's antiporn bill is a provision to effectively outlaw "circumvention tools," such as VPNs.

Mark my words: legislators will increasingly leverage porn panic to restrict or ban VPNs, and to limit internet privacy far beyond adult sites.

Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs

Rep. Josh Schriver, the bill’s sponsor, says the law is designed to target only producers and distributors of pornography, not everyday internet users.
