despite the unfortunate timing, we take disclosures seriously at @typesafeai
at approximately 6:49PM this Friday evening, we became aware of a massive unauthorized leak of ALL customer noul outputs
in effort to maximize transparency, here is the link: gist.github.com/diogo149/810…
hey @starlink! minor but slightly embarrassing issue: a bunch your traffic routing IPs reverse DNS to 'undefined.hostname.localhost'. This doesn't cause any problems, but just feels janky and looks like a misconfiguration. 206.224.71.88 for example. See screenshot
Hey @CaliforniaDDS ! Bug report:
Your community care licensing website seems to be trying to keep reports out of Google's index, but it's not working. Your site escapes the meta robots tag... and I can confirm they're in search engines. Example: ccld.dss.ca.gov/transparency…
For the public record:
When I say "ethernet cable" I of course mean
"balanced twisted-pair Category 5/5e/6/7/8 patch cable with 8P8C modular connectors".
Posting this so I can just link it when someone says
"eThErnET iS a pRotOCol nOT a cABle"
Apple released a new support article about battery life issues on Apple Watch: support.apple.com/en-us/1227…
Funny how just putting your watch in Airplane Mode is now part of the official guidance...
(p.s. I have a script that alerts me when they publish new help articles)

Funny how you keep extending the deadline for when you waive the intake fee 🙃
Weird Apple bug! For some reason this obscure macOS menu calls the Voice Memos app "Gravador" instead. Which seems like the Portuguese name for it? !shrug
ALT side story: I don't use "Messages in iCloud", but one time like 5 years ago I enabled this on and old iPad. The iPad then broke. I haven't figured out how to remove "Messages" from my iCloud storage since.
Interesting animation style in "Predator: Killer of Killers". Characters are animated at 12 fps instead of 24, but the background is at 24fps.
In this example with a tblend visualization, you can see the background moving constantly, but character only moving every other frame.
This text, which links to a URL asking for my @BlueShieldCA account password, is apparently *NOT* a phishing scam. Blue Shield literally texts you asking you to type your password into a non-official domain and you're just supposed to know it's not phishing.
United.com can be insanely slow sometimes. I tracked the cause to a request for 'marketingoffers' taking 15+ secs! Using a uBO rule to turn that into an empty response speeds up the load time from ~20 seconds to ~3 seconds with no noticeable side effects... 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
ALT Filter with this rule: ``` ||www.united.com/api/checkin/marketingoffers$xhr,redirect=empty ```
Just heard from a friend that applying this uBlock Origin rule massively sped up the United.com website for them as well... come on @united !
Amtrak Wi-Fi allows all client-to-client communication, including broadcast traffic! There's about 100 Bonjour/mDNS broadcasts per second and I suspect it's hurting performance due to congestion... Look at all these lonely Macs advertising their services in vain 🥺
Apple just dropped a mysterious new support doc related to user repairability of the new MacBook Airs. Seems unfinished since it's not in the sitemap and some links 404, though its fun looking at all the photos of their repair tools: support.apple.com/en-us/1185…
these too:
- support.apple.com/en-us/1185…
- support.apple.com/en-us/1185…
(I have a script that periodically looks for new docs since their IDs are sequential....)
I love this website: psytranceguide.com/
especially its asset URLs!
Compare this lovingly human URL: psytranceguide.com/audio/str…
vs my Facebook profile URL: scontent.fmci1-4.fna.fbcdn.n…
