[Edit: So, there seems to be a lot of uncertainty and a lack of clear efficacy around TransRescue right now. I'm looking for alternate orgs to suggest, but there's nothing else in exactly that space.]
If you at all can, this is a really great time to donate or otherwise assist with...

So, cis Americans, you're now living through the first day of a federal genocide against trans people, as defined by the Lemkin Institute for the Prevention of Genocide. As happens almost without exception unless stopped, it is both likely to proceed to mass murder and to expand to include additional social groups, possibly including you.
What are you going to do about this? Are you going to take up arms and fight to prevent your friends and neighbors from being murdered by the state? Are you going to harbor fugitives, get them medical care, and help them leave the country? Are you going to disrupt the function of state offices and destroy records to make their work impossible?
Or are you just going to hunker down and go along with what's asked of you, in hopes they don't get around to killing people like you? Are you, in other words, going to be a good Nazi?
If you think you're going to maybe go on a few big nonviolent protests and be angry on social media, like you did last time, but you know money is tight and you just started a new job and... congrats on failing to understand the situation and choosing to be a good Nazi.
History is unfortunately quite clear here. There are no other options left. Either you literally, physically fight this, or you collaborate.
If you think this is extreme, well, you've made your choice. See you in hell.

Today while checking on the LA fires, I learned that it's possible to buy privacy on Google maps. All of Topanga is shown in maybe 1m resolution, as opposed to maybe 30cm for the rest of LA, and a lot of it has no streetview coverage at all, or only very spotty coverage. It all shows up normally in Google Earth, so it's clearly a maps-specific thing, not the underlying data.

Do (software) emulators/VMs exist for Sharc DSPs? How performant are they on, say, modern macOS ARM?

Having just read a bit about the impact of the "business as usual" bias among German Jews in the runup to WW2 and the lack of meaningful resistance that it led to, is pretty terrifying watching the same bias today.

A lot of folks are about to learn about reading critically what is said and by whom in the context of lawsuits and the reasons companies may choose to settle.
No, who am I kidding, we're just gonna get a shit ton more conspiracy theories by folks who don't have the context to understand call bullshit or who prefer outrage to being right.

The man who was, arguably, the last American president with a chance to save the country just died.
Welp.

At least the fact that Biden is a lame duck means that we're spared the annoyance of yet another round of "it's important that you support people who are fine with the kid you used to be dying; you'll get your freedom some other decade if you get in line now".

Watching self-described antifascists unironically welcoming the ever-growing security apparatus of the state and the securitization of society is wild.

I see that the NYPD have learned that while you can create a spectacle, you can't control what it means.
Perhaps they can investigate the death of the author next.

When Silicon Valley talks about meritocracy, this is what they mean: https://mastodon.social/@grimalkina/112205399028342839
It's obviously never been about merit, but it also doesn't work for anyone — even the people who have enough privilege that they get held to a lower standard.

Looks like there's this: https://proton.me/blog/protondrive-security. But that's very much a blog post and not a spec. They've got public audit results, but a skim of the report doesn't give me enough data to say whether the team that did the work was actually up to the job or not. Having public code is nice, but it's concerning to not see public technical docs.
