Bill Gates is a monster.
it’s about fucking time a lot of y’all in #tech say it loudly and with the chest. he has proven right those of us who’ve been saying it since the 1990s.
all that bullshit about vaccines? he uses his foundation to push the stock up of his pharma companies. one of the points of the program was so he could develop a new generation of wage slaves; to work as curators of the vile & violent content techbros use for their aislop grift.

The EPA is quietly killing its web archive
"For decades, the web archive has been an unparalleled resource for researchers, legislators, policymakers, and the public writ large. It houses everything from fact sheets and environmental reports to agency policy changes and regulatory actions, making it a tool for “democratic oversight,” according to Gehrke, who for 10 years has been tracking changes to vulnerable federal environmental data."

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

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
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.
