@vague Just checking but is codeberg the main hosting site where the PR's are to be sent?

@vague yeah so I get that encryption system in IRC client is something that no one wants to maintain. So that denial is from legit standing point.

However, having some to say that please run command instead of just reading password should not be tedious to maintain. Gives user a choice.

Problem implementing custom encryption storages is difficult and one can easily introduce a completely new set of security issues by doing that.

So I go through the official route but what I was thinking would be to add "-passcmd" to /connect.

My heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of actress Patti Yasutake. Fans will forever cherish her portrayal of Nurse Alyssa Ogawa on “Star Trek: The Next Generation.” Personally, I’ll remember her as a dear friend, whose sister was the late Irene Hirano Inouye, a founder of the Japanese American National Museum.

@Netux Linux has arch/riscv tree but that could be just as well arch/sifive tree. I.e. there is a single proprietary vendor for MMUfull RISC-V, which defines how that category works. Others will follow. Not that different from e.g. Intel in the end.

@Netux I'm not sure what RISC-V architecture even is.

The spec does not have any even pseudo code for opcodes, let alone upstream with official VHDL/Verilog.

How come RISC-V be open hardware when there is no hardware *at all*? It's like I would explain some imaginary specs for imaginary CPU in this comment would claim that here's a new open CPU ecosystem, fast-forward to the future and beyond ;-)

One can at most say from current specs that there is a collection of abstract ideas of register layout, opcodes (some of which are *ambiguous*) etc. AND a marketing brand for corporations involved :-) I still like to work on this stuff because when the shit is still broken, that is *exactly* the fun zone :-)

Have to add that I neither like the silly sec.conf in #weechat ;-) It sucks but is less worse than exposing passwords in plain text. I use weechat at least up until this has been fixed (if it ever will be). [the best possible solution would be obviously to have password command option like every other software]

I neither have motivation to add that option myself because it is quite obvious that it would be pain to get it landed based on comment that I responded to. I would only end up spending 1-2 nights writing code and 2 months collecting bad karma ;-)

@paul @jlewallen Cool thank you!

So earlier this year I wrote about this cybercrime rapper named Punchmade Dev, who wears outlandishly gaudy and expensive stuff around his neck and croons in videos in front of stacks of cash at ATMs, talking about how to do wire fraud, cashout PayPal and Cash App accounts, etc. The story showed how this Punchmade character seems to be a 22-year-old guy in Lexington, Ky named Devon Turner who operates multiple web stores that sell apparently compromised payment cards and identity information (alongside check printing software and tutorials on....wait for it...OPSEC!).

On a hunch that maybe Punchmade's lack of opsec might have caught up with him, I checked PACER and found instead that he recently sued his bank, alleging they discriminated against him for his race over his denied request to transfer $75,000 out of his account. Incredibly, Mr. Turner signed his pro se complaint filed in a Kentucky court with the same phone number and email address that are tied to the Punchmade domain names that are selling products like "ID+ High Balance CC, ID front/back, SSN, and 7$k-10k CC, for $80"

Here's the story:
In January, KrebsOnSecurity wrote about rapper Punchmade Dev, whose music videos sing the praises of a cybercrime lifestyle. That story showed how Punchmade's social media profiles promoted Punchmade-themed online stores selling bank account and payment card data. Now the Kentucky native is suing his financial institution after it blocked a $75,000 wire transfer and froze his account, citing an active law enforcement investigation.

Tim Walz is from Minnesota, which is the most Scandinavian state of US so he must be a great guy :-) AFAIK, he has Swedish ancestors. There's even a village called Finland in Minnesota, and active Finnish descendant community: https://friendsoffinland.org/

This can't be a bad sign ;-)

IMPORTANT NOTICE ⚠️

(Boosts appreciated)

The #Dillo package for #Debian will be removed from the repositories in two weeks.

https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/issues/230

The current maintainer seems to be unable to continue taking care of it, and I'm not familiar with Debian packages to maintain it myself.

Is there a Debian maintainer who could help us by adopting it? We already have a working package:
