The Guardian and Cambridge University's Department of Computer Science unveil new secure technology to protect sources in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] Cenzorrll@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Yes, the guardian app allows you to send encrypted messages through their app to their journalists. 100,000 people check the news, one person is whistleblowing. That one person's messaging traffic is mixed in with the regular news data, so it's not possible to tell which of those 100,000 people are the source. Signal messages travel through their servers, so anyone inspecting packets can see who is sending messages through signal, just not what the messages contain. Thats a big red arrow pointing to only people sending encrypted messages. With this implementation, those people are mixed in with everyone else just reading news or even just having the app on their device.

Wouldn't you have to have some sort of MITM to be able to inspect that traffic?

You mean like your workplace wifi that you're blowing the whistle at?

Until you search that error code and it doesn't tell you anything useful.

Yes, but only if it matches my current beliefs.

It's like there a population that's had poorly funded education and can barely read, so they use capitals to make the propaganda easier to digest

I think this requires their supporters to have their own thoughts.

Leavitt Gets Skewered on Trump’s Bogus ‘Two-Week Deadlines’ in c/politics@lemmy.world

I think my gauge might be wrong. Where does "being asked a question" fall in the skewered-slammed-crushed system? This might be a she was skewered, and the journalist was slammed by her response?

He asked her if Trump would follow through on Iran, she said Biden's at fault for Ukraine. Sooo...

America's spies say Iran wasn't building a nuclear weapon. Trump dismisses that assessment in c/politics@lemmy.world

Sometime around 1996 for my personal Internet experience, we got it and a laptop for my mom around 1994 so she could do something while getting her master's and my parents thought it was super cool so we kept it. We finally got a family computer with a modem in 1996. I had an email penpal. I think I spent an entire day trying to download a demo for a video game that got stopped 75% through because my mom picked up the phone.

Thinking of a career change (lemmy.world)
 

Hi sysadmins, I am thinking of doing a pretty drastic career change. I have 10+ years of experience in chemistry doing bioanalysis and a few years repairing breath alcohol analyzers. I have always considered messing around with electronics, networking, and computers/servers as a hobby and have been using various Linux distros as my main os for almost 20 years.

I have come to see my specialty in my line of work as a dead end. I'm pretty damn good at my job but I feel like automation is going to be taking over very soon, and I'm not that good that I think I'll be in the top 10% that get to stick around and run the automations when the robots finally take over. So I'm considering doing a career change to IT/sysadmin.

What I'd like to know is what should I learn how to do to see if I'll even like moving down this path? What can I set up at home, break, then fix that would give me an idea as to what the sysadmin life is really like?

I'm pretty sure I haven't ever really done any sysadmin type work with my home setups, seeing as I build and set up services I want for myself and at the level I'm willing to put up with. For the most part I can be handed something already implemented and work within that space to keep it going and adjust it to what I want it to do or fit my set up. I can usually find my way through log files and error codes to figure out what the problem is and duckduckgo my way to a fix.

RP2040 uses (lemmy.world)
 

Alright meshers, I've been playing around with meshtastic for some time now and I've ended up with a good number of devices. I'm mostly in the rakwireless boat, with a pair of heltecs.

I have two RP2040 (rak11310) units that I just can't come up with a good use for. They use less power than a heltec on full blast, but don't have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on the heltec and turn on power saving, the heltec ends up using less power for what I can see as the same capabilities as the RP2040.

So, what can I put these units to use for? The processor is definitely more powerful than the NRF52 boards, but meshtastic doesn't seem to need any more than the NRF52 has to offer. With power saving, the heltecs can perform equally well with less power, while also having a more powerful processor in case it's needed.
