I don’t understand what the plan is. Becoming irrelevant and making it hard for users to access your site sounds like a losing play.

Can we not? We’re barely holding together what states we have at the moment, several of which regularly propose leaving.

A question for GNOME/KDE users
This is very personal and opinionated, but I just feel like Gnome isn’t going in the right direction. KDE Plasma feels vastly more modern.

Week of action planned against license plate readers
Please do not call these devices license plate readers. They are surveillance tools with capabilities that far exceed that of normal license plate reading devices. It’s like calling an RPG a spear.

Why the NSA Is Right About Periodically Restarting Your Smartphone
You do it because it makes an attacker’s life harder because now I have to find two bugs instead of one.
The entire boot chain of the phone up to the apps you run are verified successively by the component that loads it. A digital signature helps ensure that only trustworthy code ever runs. A bug must be found to bypass these checks to load malware code. For example, a bug in the image code in a web browser might cause loading of code that isn’t checked. This way the malware gets smuggled onto the phone.
This means that if you get hacked via one bug and malware is loaded, the attacker has to work harder to solve the problem of how do I convince the phone to load it again at boot because the code it’s made of isn’t going to be approved code. When you reboot, you are effectively forcing a validation that all the code you have running is authentic, which would exclude the malware. Trick me once sure, can you survive a full pat down? Probably not. It’ll get caught.
Unless I have a second bug to fool the normal code loading systems too, the malware can’t run. You have to go back and trigger the first bug again somehow, which places more strain on the attacker.
