A very short thread on the Baofeng Radios for normal humans.

1/ Your handheld radio in Texas is not going to let you talk to Grandma in Chicago. It will let you talk to folks in very short to intermediate distances. There are several FCC-defined services.

How about instead we put Huckabee in prison and have someone else who actually cares about America do his job.
Ambassador Huckabee, this is unreleased video of an American who was beaten almost to death last week by Israeli settlers. You know his name because he came to you for help, but you blew him off. That’s disgraceful. Do your job.

‼️ Steam could be hijacked with zero clicks from any other PC signed in to the same account.
Atredis Partners found two buffer overflows in the messages Steam syncs between those PCs.
It released working exploits and says each bug is patched or past its disclosure deadline.

I spent the last few hours going down the CVE-2026-98432 Critical Linux Kernel Flaw rabbit hole 🕳️ and here are a few thoughts:
- It is legit and scary. Kinda crazy that it's been known for 2 weeks & there is still no patch for popular distros (the Ubuntu fix, for example, is developed but not publicly released, still in testing).
- MPTCP needs to be enabled, and on some unorthodox port. It seems that ISPs globally have started blocking options on 22, 80, 443 and other popular ports (good!).
- If you're running a server with valuable data, disable MPTCP and/or IP options NOW. They are not necessary in 99% of use cases anyways.
- It takes about 50 minutes on average to gain access to a server if all conditions are met. My servers started getting hit today; luckily the script I shared earlier handled the situation and rejected the probes.
Stay safe & enjoy the wild AI psychosis ride we're in.

8/ Noise and Security
We presume that bandits will listen for generators running to see who might have resources. Running your generator only during the day while you can keep security is a likely good strategy.
