@KarstenIwen @Cryptoki It's from the first draft of NIST IR 8547 "Transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards" nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/ir/20…

@veorq @ciphergoth Which of the 30 variants of ECIES out there though?

“To all the athletes who could not come and be here because Russia killed them. I dedicate this to them.” Olga Kharlan after winning bronze at the Paris #Olympics.

@_saagarjha Does Apple always operate its own data centers? Because that is the only scenario where PCC could make sense: Apples won't need to trust whoever they delegate data center operations to. For the users, PCC makes indeed little difference at the end.

How to amazingly destroy russian propaganda in a less than 5 minutes @sikorskiradek masterclass

We live in a time increasingly resembling the second half of the 1930s. I couldn't live with myself with the knowledge I didn't do more to stop another Hitler. In light of the Republican wavering and in memory of Navalny I will give $100 towards FPV drones for Ukr for every RT.

@MarkWayneTaylor @tincazzi Ma se pure lo Spiegel riporta la notizia: spiegel.de/sport/basketba…

@hallam @yawkat @bwesterb Yeah sure, Avast. They never sold personal data of users: nltimes.nl/2023/07/07/cla… . Why should we trust private companies more than democratic states we live in is dubious. While users should decide, they should not be able to choose to give up on privacy.

@rmhrisk “Supporting QWACs will mean that browsers will have to support providers […] without independently vetting their security practices” - none of the browsers perform any audit, so this is already a weak reason. And if the concern is about weak requirements, what are those exactly?

In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce a South African-American(!) businessman and social media figure, Elon Musk (@elonmusk). He's best-known for being the wealthiest man in the world, running Tesla Inc., SpaceX & Twitter, and for parroting Kremlin's propaganda narratives. 1/24

Straordinario Gianni Rodari sulla felicità ... Aveva capito tutto ..se avete la pazienza di leggere + di 240 caratteri.. Rodari e la felicità… "Vorrei sapere in che consiste la felicità e se si può essere felici tutta la vita." "Per essere sicuro di non sbagliare a rispondere, sono andato a cercare in un grosso vocabolario la parola 'felicità' ed ho trovato che significa 'essere pienamente contenti, per sempre e per un lungo tempo'. Ma come si fa ad essere 'pienamente contenti', con tutte le cose brutte che ci sono al mondo, e con tutti gli errori che facciamo anche noi, ogni giorno dell’anno? Ho chiuso il vocabolario e l’ho rimesso in libreria, con molto rispetto perché è un vecchio libro e costa caro, ma ben deciso a non dargli retta. La felicità dev’essere per forza qualche altra cosa, una cosa che non ci costringa ad essere sempre allegri e soddisfatti (e un po’ stupidi) come una gallina che si è riempita il gozzo. Forse la felicità sta nel fare le cose che possono arricchire la vita di tutti gli uomini; nell’essere in armonia con coloro che vogliono e fanno le cose giuste e necessarie. E allora la felicità non è semplice e facile come una canzonetta: è una lotta. Non la si impara dai libri, ma dalla vita, e non tutti vi riescono: quelli che non si stancano mai di cercare e di lottare e di fare, vi riescono, e credo che possano essere felici per tutta la vita."

Yesterday evening, big batteries provided 5.2GW of instantaneous power to California's grid. That's the equivalent of 5 typical nuclear plants. The batteries were charged up on sunshine earlier in the day.

@rmhrisk Doesn't that imply that the unique ID of each device will end up in the CT log (in the DNS name)? Most probably, without the end user's consent (because devices are "managed")? This is not good for privacy, possibly illegal in EU: hopefully it will be disallowed at some point.

@FilmendeFietser @GemeenteUtrecht "We hebben geen specifiek beleid op bierfietsen". Maar ze fietsen wel door 2 gebieden waar een alcoholverbod geldt: delen van de Catharijnesingel en Wittevrouwensingel (zie damtours.nl/nl/startlocati…). Dat mag al niet, toch @GemeenteUtrecht?

@ryanaraine More often than not though, that checkbox is found already enabled, as the default.

@shawnwillden @robertgraham @RayRedacted Is it good because user data will be then collected "only" by Google, and not by the "others"? And, arguably, the current web economic model is not sustainable or healthy to begin with, so maybe we do need a different one.

@AlfonsoFuggetta @Corriere "Per il Superbonus 110% si prevedeva una spesa di 35 miliardi, ma siamo arrivati quasi a cento" Per 30 miliardi, ci si costruisce una foundry di Intel, oppure tre di TSMC: theregister.com/2023/08/09/tsm…

@giskard23 @halvarflake @thegrugq Interesting blog post! >> My next graph tells the another story. Out of over 300 CVEs, I determined that 200 needed no action, and 100 needed further in-depth investigation. How did you determine that exactly, for each CVE? Did you review 300 descriptions?

@searchio @repmovsb @halvarflake But a compromised system can easily make adb return a seemingly trustworthy hash
