Commented in 3 million smart toothbrushes were just used in a DDoS attack. Really
On Mastodon people are disagreeing, simply because the article in question doesn't tell about the target, there's only one single source and the researcher is not named. One of the responses to that post is pretty valid, namely the toothbrushes' brands are not mentioned and it seems rather impossible that toothbrushes have wifi, most of them have bluetooth (pun not intended) and are only connected to a phone. In order to use that phone, you have to hack that phone also. It's not that easy as presented. The article that was linked as source of the news was behind a paywall, so I have tried to undo it. Here's the link. To me it's more fearmongering than reality.
That being said, I think it's always smart to check the safety of your equipment, whether it's a toothbrush or a system critical computer. Like with operating systems, people tend to just use it, consume it, without questioning the safety of all that stuff. Putting your trust in companies is never a wise idea, since they have just one main goal: a profitable bottomline.
Edit: the botnet with toothbrushes story was merely an illustration and not a fact, see this Mastodon-post. Also on YouTube someone has some really well argumented comments on this story.

Commented in LIVE: Annular Solar Eclipse (Great American Eclipse) - October 14, 2023
Wow! This was quite a spectacle! I truly enjoyed watching this. It's just amazing when the moon covers the centre of the Sun, creating that stunning ring of fire. If you haven't seen one yet, I'd definitely recommend checking out this video or looking for other videos on youtube. There's definitely a lot more videos that showcase the beauty of eclipses.

This one sounds good:
Many people want to run the Jitsi open-source server host on their own machines for ultimate privacy. Jitsi Meet consists of several components. The core, Jitsi Meet, is a WebRTC JavaScript application that uses Jitsi Videobridge to provide scalable video conferences.

Commented in The Tall Lipless Guy Who Runs The Damn World -- Larry Fink & BlackRock
I hope this isnt the kind of content that continues to gain traction here.
Blackrock is an asset manager. They don't own the assets they manage, nor do they define the mandates under which capital is deployed. Ex: a state pension fund will use Blackrock funds as Lego blocks for a portfolio. Blackrock gets a few basis points of management fees (since this is the race they won - the race to the bottom). Its one of the the most boring industries in the world of finance.
Aladdin is portfolio management software. That section is akin to raging against Excel or a Bloomberg Terminal, what an utterly misinformed video.

Commented in Elon Musk says he'll resign as head of Twitter
For what it's worth: I think that he planned this all ahead, as in: not being CEO forever and that he planned to appoint someone as soon as he finds one. All the rest what was happening, from the sink wordplay to the voting him out was a carefully planned PR-stunt. Or, as I like to call it, a charade.

Commented in How many more warning signs does Mark Zuckerberg need to see before he pulls the plug on his metaverse?
I'm pretty sure he will not pay out of pocket for this "venture". Most of his riches are in stocks, where he got hit pretty bad the past few months. His wife is also involved in his pledge, "the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative", to hand out 99% of their Meta (at time of the pledge still Facebook) stocks. Let them roll like this, since those kind of pledges are mostly done to avoid even more taxes and to gain political influence. So, in that light: let that company crash hard. Let those fuckers bleed as dry as the Sahara, or wait no, even better: as dry as Dry Valleys in Antarctica. As a European I'm normally a guillotine kind of guy, but why waste energy (which is expensive) and let them all do it to themselves. Also: bigger entertainment-factor. :-)
