idk man, i just think we can't let the sloppers win and take all our spaces and all our hobbies and all our joy from us. we gotta fight back, and if we have to make our own new communities that ban slop to replace old ones that didn't have the backbone to do it, then that's what we gotta do

and i'm not saying it'll be easy. i'm saying that unless we wanna just lay down and give up and die that's our only choice

Oh Captain! My Captain!

@patricksudlow Even in 1980s South Africa, when there was a referendum where only white people could vote, nearly 70% voted to end Apartheid. How pathetic are Israelis as a people if they willfully and knowingly allow this regime to continue?

Elections in Brazil, Israel, South Africa and US in such a short period. Hopefully Brazil isn't the only country that brings us some good news.

Given the EU’s push to simplify the GDPR to make compliance easier, I propose the following replacement text:

Nope.

With the following additional non-normative additional guidance:

No. Seriously, what’s wrong with you people? Why would you ever think anyone would consent to that. No. Just no.

Grub is KING

Set `session.upload_progress.enabled=0` until the next PHP release to block an unlikely RCE vector (CVE-2026-115560).

We already recommended this for CVE-2026-109619 from Wednesday: keep it disabled.

Only applications with non-default `serialize_handler` switching it to `php` at runtime can be affected.

There is more information in the advisory on the PHP website by the PHP security team: https://www.php.net/archive/2026.php#2026-10-23-1

@opensuse The green colour really adds some character to it, nice!

@OdyX @quad9dns When I said that in Québec they claimed to have never heard it before!

Our global team, including @ondrej, worked around the clock to deliver PHP2Shell fixes: ~500 builds covering all 12 supported PHP versions, 10 Debian/Ubuntu releases and up to 4 architectures. Updates rolled out progressively over ~15 hours, with the rollout fully complete by 1:30 AM CEST.

why do people call LLM training on public website data “AI Copyright Infringement” when “six finger discount” is right there

RT: @sarrah_bellus Wow.

Albanians just set fire to the Supreme Court after it allowed Jared Kushner to buy land in the country against the their will.

@quad9dns How do I say "THAT'S FUCKING INSANE!" in French!?

The French courts yesterday handed down an unfavorable ruling against Quad9 in a major case that undermines the transparency and stability of the internet. As a result, Quad9 will no longer be able to offer its free cyberprotection service to users located in France effective November 24.

You know a piece of software is bad news when it makes it all the way to being on Democracy Now!

(yes it's PHP)

After a few failed attempts over the years, I'm really happy to finally have a working, reliable and fast dual-stack ipv4/ipv6 setup at home. Best of all, connections to Europe have around 30ms less latency. It doesn't sound like much, but I can feel it.

@mechko That is both tragic and hilarious!

Just think about all the folks downloading the PHP patches through a connection that is part of MITM attack, because their curl or whatever is still using the emSign Root CA.
