The protective value of HIBP k-anonymity lookups is significantly reduced because frequency data is included. The more common the password, the more this effect is magnified.
I strongly advise anyone in the US who has put off a necessary medical or surgical procedure(s), get it done; schedule it as soon as feasible, if said medical service is available to you (not a given, if you have access to medical care use the privilege while you still have it). Particularly if you rely on Medicare or Medicaid.
Not going to bore you with personal details (i.e. advertise them across the surveill-o-verse) but I have already done so.
Trump to declare “illicit” #fentanyl “Weapon of Mass Destruction," per draft EO thehandbasket.co/p/trump-fenta… “Trump plans to issue an executive order designating fentanyl as a "Weapon of Mass Destruction," per copy of EO reviewed by me. Source at State speculates purpose is to designate cartels as terrorist orgs/justify military ops in Mexico/Canada.
Context/full text of draft only on The Handbasket”
Now they want to fight fentanyl... weren't some red state governors blocking access to Naloxone on purpose because they felt drug addiction was a moral failure and folks should take personal responsibility. Which is it, then?

Interesting moment tonight when the spacecraft returned from the international space station. Soon after splash down several dolphins showed up to check out the strange things happening.
Submarine cables are getting 'ears' to detect the approach of possible saboteurs.
A really neat technique, whereby vibrations passing through a fiberoptic cable cause light in the cable to 'bounce' off-path, so registering a disturbance. For mega structures like subsea cables however, listening stations would supposedly need to be deployed every 100km. Interestingly, temperature changes can also disturb light path, so signalling that a cable may be being unburied.

Chemical educator and Compound Interest blogger Andy Brunning explains what happens (or doesn’t) after you throw those bottles and bags in the recycle bin
@fredy's Italian postal bike had a problem where one of the bearing cups wouldn't thread in all the way because it was the wine thread pitch and some previous owner had forced it in until it cut new threads -- to a point.
The only solution i could come up with was to remove enough threads so that it could thread in without bottoming out on the threads that hadn't been recut further down in the bottom bracket.
We did this on the lathe, partially with cutting and partially with grinding.
In the next few months, from its perch atop a mountain in Chile, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory will begin surveying the #cosmos with the largest camera ever built.
Every three nights, it will produce a map of the entire southern sky filled with #stars, #galaxies, #asteroids and @supernovae — and swarms of bright #satellites ruining some of the view.
The image is a four-panel comic strip with a pink background. In the first panel, a character with red wings and horns, dressed in a black outfit, is speaking to another character with glasses and brown hair, wearing a green shirt. The red-winged character says, "I just had a Zoom meeting with my boss and he said empathy is a sin now." The second panel shows the character with glasses responding with, "...What?" The third panel features the red-winged character asking, "So I guess I'm supposed to tempt you to... care about others?" The fourth panel shows the character with glasses saying, "I'm confused." The red-winged character replies, "Me too." The comic strip is credited to [@]pizzacakecomic and includes a Patreon link at the bottom.

I understand why they picked, Fedora, but I also see the irony.
The problem with SUSE / openSUSE is for the past few years, they keep flip-flopping. I mean to say, there is no clear road map.
openSUSE, for example, has said they would discontinue Leap, then said they were going to keep it, then discontinue it, then keep it, then make it immutable, then changed their mind, then said they'd discontinue it, and now it is in development.
The more amusing things was when they said they were going to change their logo. openSUSE held a contest, picked a winner, gave out prizes, promoted their new logo, and then changed their mind.
The more concerning thing is openSUSE is doing the same thing with Yast. At one point, they were going to hand it (Yast) over to a 3rd party developer, who was working on making it a terminal only project. And they've expressed a desire to kill off KDE in openSUSE a few times now, claiming lack of individuals showing interest to help support it (even when people came forward to help support it).
Here is the big kicker (the gotcha).

Here is the big kicker (the gotcha). They have a history of rewriting their history. So whatever they claim today, promote today, not only may vanish, but they'll deny it later. It has been amusing and upsetting to watch, because both SUSE Enterprise and openSUSE used to be great developments that I truly liked.
Over the past few days, I "channeled" my inner nerd into building an automated radiation detection system using open-source tools.
The device combines an ESP32 running #ESPHome for sensor data collection, my #HomeAssistant for centralized smart home integration, and #NodeRED for automating hourly Fediverse updates via a bot account

@Radiation_SL (since this Geiger counter is located in northern Germany ( #Schleswig )
Connectivity: ESP32 transmits via Wi-Fi to Home Assistant
Case: #3dPrinting the case (photo) - base is black and the lid is blue and shows the logo of "Fallout" (pc game/ TV series)
Automation: Node-RED flow formats data into ActivityPub messages
Decentralized Sharing: Posts include μSv/h readings
While this started as a hardware tinkering project, recent global events — nuclear rhetoric in conflict zones, aging power plants, and insufficient transparency in environmental monitoring — made me realize decentralized citizen science could play a crucial role.
Open-source tools eliminate single points of failure, and Fediverse integration ensures censorship-resistant data sharing.
Feel free to follow my bot account I mentioned above, if you are interested.
If I can find some time I will write a blogpost about the build process and link it in the bio / or just toot about it.
Trump voter Bradley Bartell voted for mass deportations, never thinking they’d come for his wife. But alas, his wife, Camila Muñoz, overstayed her visa, and now she’s in an ICE detention facility.
Gee, what did they expect, to be excempt? "But we voted for you!" "Yeah, thanks a lot!", he's saying... When are these gullible people gonna learn that he doesn't care about anything or anybody but himself.
> Possibly defying a court order. Urging his Justice Department to prosecute nemeses. Repeatedly calling the media 'illegal.' Declaring a predecessor's pardon null and void. U.S. President Donald Trump has done these things in the past few days.
I suspect all this chaos is exactly why Constitutional scholars have said the theory of a Unitary Executive is not what the Framers intended. It's a shame so many people can only learn by experience.
Taking the adults out of the FTC allows for more fraudulent trading, non-compliance by mega corporations with their financial reporting, introduction of crypto trading (eg in retirement accounts), and all kinds of deregulation. Remember the subprime mortgage crash? The next one will be monumental. Especially since other nations will shun the US dollar because there is now no regulation. Buckle up! I’m curious if the market will go up because they’ll see ways to short term profit from fraud or will go down because they know things are going to crash eventually. I’m guessing down, because the wise will be withdrawing funds and traders don’t like change of any kind.
