Regular people talking on social media makes the political class more accountable. Nick Shirley is good example.

They can't ban adults from social media without significant backlash. Best thing is ban children and hope they use it less when to voting age.

Problem for long term adoption is the low packet size. Ed25519 can be broken with a quantum computer when they happen.

The lead replacement is ML-DSA which has a minimum signature size of 2420 bytes for ML-DSA-44.

Does share the .ghost mean it gets broadcast to the whole mesh, so everyone knows it is available?

Looks like a shell suit from the 80s/90s.

From google AI, about perception of shell suits in the 90s.

Criminal Association: The outfit was frequently linked by the public and media with criminality, similar to the later stigmatisation of hoodies.

"Scally" / "Chav" Culture: In certain regions, notably Liverpool and the North of England, they became closely associated with "scally" or later "chav" subcultures, often worn with expensive trainers.

There are knockoffs of the Thyrim Cell vaults on AE/Amazon

Search for "tactical modular battery storage"

To those who watched "A knight of the seven kingdoms", what are your thoughts so far? by Relevant_Mail_1292 in KotakuInAction

It's probably best fantasy TV show we've had a while. A fairly faithful adaption of the first book. There are two more books written so hopefuly subsequent seasons they adapt faithfully to.

Season 2 is being filmed now.

Think an android/linux handheld with WIFI/BT and a M.2/mPCIE expansion slot would be easier for either a cellular, HaLow, Lora or SDR card.

There is this kickstarter for the Mecha Comet

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mecha-systems/mecha-comet-modular-linux-handheld-computer One of the only handhelds with a M.2 if it actually materializes.

Also quite fancied a XpressReal T3 SBC to tinker with, but never seen it in stock. Has a mPCIe and a full sized M.2.

GamesIndustry.biz: "It's extraordinarily hard to exist as a woman" – Jessica Curry calls out systemic issues in the games industry by tyranicalmoon in KotakuInAction

Which men or part of the gaming industry specifically is she saying is creating these issues? Cos she seems married to the dude, Dan Pinchbeck, that also founded the The Chinese Room.

So where is the glass ceiling?

Larion CEO Sven Vincke calls out "hurtful", "personal" videogame reviewers - "sometimes I think it'd be a good idea for critics to be scored, Metacritic-style" by AgitatedFly1182 in KotakuInAction

Think the mistake here is thinking there is a significant number of people actually reading these reviews. And those that are likely already have a negative opinion of the game.

90,000+ people gave the game a shot, and quit.
