For years Putin's diplomat Kirill Dmitriev has worked to destroy NATO unity, and isolate Ukraine, and now Melania Trump has invited him into the White House.

Putin has given this man the task of ensuring Ukraine has no support, and there he is, shaking hands with the first lady, smiling, while representing the Russian president who is wanted by the Hague for war crimes.

May the new Congress investigate the hell out of the first family and all its corrupt dealings with the Russian murderers.

New, by me: Tech Firms Dismantle Botnet That Turned 1.3M TV Boxes Into Proxies

Google said today it worked with industry partners to dismantle a botnet made up of more than 1.3 million Android TV set-top boxes that ship with malicious software which secretly rents the user’s Internet connection out to strangers and conducts advertising fraud. Experts involved in the takedown say the action is likely to sever the botnet’s access to more than 10 million additional compromised systems, including other Internet of Things (IoT) products such as Android-based healthcare devices and karaoke machines.

Geordi,

No one has been receiving my emails for many months. This is a significant security risk and it must be fixed.

Polls are unreliable, moreso recently than ever.

Always vote as if we don’t know the outcome.

Only the votes are real.

A funny but bittersweet kids' story set in Norway it is. Not that I expect anyone to read it.

I don't know who needs to see this but here's a Spacemit K3 CoM260 building its own Fedora kernel natively. Seems CPU-bound with 8 RVA23 cores, which is probably good. It's a shame we can't also utilize the 8 RVA22 ("AI") cores with a mainline kernel.

I want to do NaNoWriMo this year, because I need a distraction from... *makes a wide gesture with his arms*

But I need to pick one of the two: a cute but bittersweet kids' story set in Norway, or a heartfelt but also bittersweet Fallout 4 fanfic.
