“MacBooks turned out to be the perfect target for the attack, because it works best when you have a very reflective surface to use as the laser target – and the Apple logo on the back of a MacBook screen has an almost mirror-like finish.”

People who plaster their MacBooks with stickers have deployed physical firewalls 👌

If you’re angry about EU regulations because of cookie banners then malicious compliance has worked on you.

@Gargron I hope you can manage to catch a break over the holidays and get a chance to reflect on having been on Decoder with Nilay Patel this year. You know, that show where CEOs and executives of big/notable companies talk about big ideas and other problems 🙂

@Gargron Dammit, you need eyes like a cat these days

Hobbes vs one-way cat flap. Just look at that smart cookie! He’s perfected his technique.

Operating •and• developing Mastodon on this budget is nothing short of amazing.

It’s also unsustainable and we should make sure we don’t just pay for our third party Mastodon clients but donate to the core project.

Yesterday, our cat Hobbes was gone over night. He returned in the morning after 16h or so, which is highly unusual for him.

There’s no way he went that long without eating and I now wonder if he’s got another place.

Might call him Mitterrand now 🤔
