THIS. I say this as one of the cringe dweebs who used to stand in line for midnight book drops in the HP series as a kid. Fuck JK Rowling and her shitty opinions. Her transphobia, racism, and underwhelming writing all together.

Just a reminder that this account just makes things up and presents them as news. It's lib fan fiction. Nothing from the Halfway Post is real. They pretend it's satire, but what is this even satirizing? What's the commentary? What's the joke?

Does our own steady march toward dystopia mean we can't still celebrate dystopian future games like Cyberpunk? I don't think so! The Cyberpunk 2077 font & logo generator is live now! Featuring a full custom font based on the original logo.

Some tips on giving digital privacy/security advice: if you tell people they absolutely need to do a long list of difficult and expensive things before they travel, people will nod and smile and then not do it at all. This is why my advice focuses on harm reduction and understanding trade-offs.

Powerful stuff from our students: "AI cannot coexist with education — it can only degrade it.... With our own university leading the charge, AI is now corrupting those few sacred spaces and leaving us with nowhere to engage in true scholarship."

Recently I had the pleasure of presenting to our local chapter of the Indivisible Project activism group for Northeast Ohio on the topic of the Signal app, and how it can be used securely. #IndivisibleNEO My slides & talk are below: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOEG... www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fp7th...

The drone and imaging companies whose feeds are one of the data sources for this AI targeting system are right here in the Columbia River Gorge. That part with a car marked as an asset in a "kill chain" was trained on our cars. America tests its war machines on its rural communities first.

Some stuff you should be watching: - China / Taiwan - Russia / Ukraine - Epstein deletions and findings - Minneapolis - Strait of Hormuz politics and economics - Lebanon - SAVE act and obviously related passport and ID invalidation hijinks. And postal service hijinks - OS level age validation

In this golden age of surveillance, making E2EE chat normal and expected has been privacy's biggest win. I hate to see it getting rolled back. thehackernews.com/2026/03/meta...

It's Friday.

Watch his face. Micro expressions of contempt and revulsion when he's obliged to listen to people's arguments. Smug. He admits he has no expertise. And he relishes holding power over those who have worked hard to earn it. Part of how he gets off is knowing that he knows less but holds more power.

The South ending Reconstruction and plunging their populations into a backward looking culture and economy until it was forced to modernize by the Civil Rights movement is imo a very clean parallel.

The fact that no one on his team has a sense of humor sufficient to have clocked this is the Monty Python theme song is just 🦶 Someone please convince them to do "Yakety Sax" next.

“Dad, you keep teaching me how to be honest, to be kind, to be brave, to push back on bullies, to stand for what I believe in. What if I end up being none of these things?” “Then, son, it’s likely you’ll end up having a long and successful career in Congress.”

By me at this.weekinsecurity.com: In 2025, I found 3 popular apps leaking sensitive user data, thanks to simple security bugs. In this very deep-dive for subscribers, this is how I use network analysis tools like Burp to understand how apps and websites work & share your data, and how you can, too!

Looking like she can sing YMCA all by herself.

"In order to answer questions and interpret what the camera sees, the glasses require that data be processed via Meta’s infrastructure – it is not possible to interact with the AI solely locally on the phone."

just thinking about how USAID was dismantled under the rationale of cost savings but there's an unlimited budget for war

something i'm noticing in all these mainstream pub profiles and SEO writeups about "looksmaxxing"/clavicular, which are seemingly mostly written by men, is that they use their phrasing of engaging in "self-improvement," implying that their beauty standards are somehow objective and even rational

The threat of detention warehouses harkens back to one of our most shameful periods as a nation, when warehouses were used for Japanese American incarceration in the 1940s, which caused immense suffering and generational trauma. It was wrong then and it is wrong now.

The core problem with capitalism for capitalists is, it has to keep finding new aspects of existence to commodify and then sell back to consumers. AI is an effort to take our digital selves (social, intellectual, work online presences), homogenize them, and charge us for the resulting generic slop.

Aided by genAI models like ChatGPT, “writers” hoping to get paid for fake stories have become an even bigger problem for publications big and small. One such writer almost pulled one over on COYOTE — until @soleilho.com, who is a nerd, spotted a key idiosyncrasy.

Can't say it enough, if you are going to build ANYTHING, you are going to be criticized much more than you will be praised. Do not be deterred. Build what you want to exist. Find your people and seek their counsel. Keep it moving.
