The temperature inside this apple turnover is over 1,000 degrees. If I squeeze it, a jet of molten Bramley apple will squirt out. Could go your way; could go mine. Either way, one of us is going down.

Love this
Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Why is everything by Microsoft at least a bit shit in some way? Like basic missing features or poor user experience or plain broken? It’s been like this for decades.

Hey @asuswrt-merlin.net I would ask on the snb forum, but it looks like my account is disabled, but do you have any plans to support the TUF-BE6500 in Merlin any time soon? Just got one with the new internet and I forgot how inept the stock Asus firmware is 😅

Big fan of your work. Big thanks!

Happy to announce the joke API has reached V1.0.0!

A weasel walks into a bar. The bartender says, "Wow, I've never served a weasel before. What can I get for you?" "Pop," goes the weasel.

It’s absolutely crazy that we’re having to rely on a giant American company to champion privacy and security in the UK. And all because our police are too shit to get results without a cheat code that breaks things for literally everyone else.

@nordvpnofficial.bsky.social the NordVPN app with Threat Protection on blocks @bsky.app videos and some images from loading. At least on iOS. Disabling TP or the VPN fixes the issue immediately.

The UK Government is officially anti-security and anti-privacy. When a decent hack happens, I hope they get absolutely slaughtered in court for it.
