This week, LastPass, and its parent company GoTo, both published blog posts about their recent data breach: http://tcrn.ch/3ucMvBx
But if you search for GoTo's blog post in Google, you won't find it, because GoTo hid its breach notice from search engines using "noindex" code.
@Soreth Have you flushed all the Austin out of yourself yet, though?
PSA, security disclosure: do not use Hive
Some reputable security researchers and SREs on birdsite are sharing that Hive has already had a major security breach and responded to private disclosure with public whataboutism instead of immediately patching:

Avoid, avoid avoid avoid with anything resembling sensitive data. This is about as big a red flag as they come.
Since it's now #BandcampFriday I have pushed the big "release album" button on my Novembeat collection for 2022, at https://sockpuppet.bandcamp.com/album/novembeat-2022-original-soundtrack
But if you don't have a lot of my music already, maybe consider getting my full discography! It's pretty cheap, at $45 for over 20 years' worth of music releases, and I have a lot of music in a lot of different styles. Some of it is even kinda-sorta good, I think. Or at least that's what people tell me sometimes.
Anyway XOXO happy friday
It's snowing here. Have a snowy thing. ❄️
@packbat It's not terrible, not even really a burn, just a little sensitive now. Still, the system in question had gotten really hot... and it had locked up hard, so who knows what was going on?
@mawr See, that's what I thought, but it seems the other usage is a thing? It's why I put the poll up. :)
one of my favorite things is when someone uses an emoji representing their special interest as a general "love" emoji.
i have one baker friend that uses 🍞 for everything, and i work with a guy who is a volunteer steam locomotive engineer on the weekends - he uses 🚂 as his general positive reaction.
i love it!
Nevar forget the Quadro Tracker, the device sold to police agencies allegedly able to track anything, which instead of a circuitboard was revealed to just have ants glued to paper with epoxy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadro_Tracker
