The Perfect Router Does Not Exi— - YouTube This build redefines what a router can be. Haven is an open-source, portable Wi-Fi HaLow mesh router that runs on a Raspberry Pi 4, capable of linking devices over kilometers without internet or subscriptions. It uses the same sub-GHz spectrum as LoRa and Meshtastic but supports full IP networking — meaning all your regular apps just work. Built entirely from open hardware and open firmware, Haven runs 802.11s + BATMAN for self-healing, peer-to-peer communication you truly own.

Why does nobody believe the theft of 215 bitcoins from Luke Dashjr?
Observatorio Blockchain
¿Por qué nadie se cree el robo de 215 bitcoins a Luke Dashjr?
Resulta extraño que a Luke Dashjr, una de las personas que más ha aportado a la ciberseguridad de Bitcoin, le hayan robado 215 bitcoins
 > Luke Dashjr, one of Bitcoin's leading developers, has been making headlines lately after having 215 bitcoins stolen. Dashjr explained that a hacker gained access to his server, his Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) system, his wallet, and his bitcoins. It's unbelievable that one of the people who has contributed the most to the cybersecurity of the Bitcoin protocol could have been hacked so easily and lost such a large sum of money.

DEF CON 33 - Stories from a Tor dev - Roger 'arma' Dingledine - YouTube > What is it actually like to support and balance a global anonymity network, with users ranging from political dissidents to national security analysts? You say it's important to teach law enforcement and governments about privacy and end-to-end encryption, but how do those conversations go in practice? I heard you accidentally got Russia to block all of Azure for a day? Are you ever going to do a Tor talk in China? Wait, who exactly tried to bribe you to leave bugs in Tor to support their criminal schemes? > Historically I've tried to downplay some of the excitement from operating the Tor network and teaching the world about Tor, but this year I'm going to try my hand at the "war stories" track.

DEF CON 33 - Kill List: Hacking an Assassination Site on the Dark Web - YouTube Four years ago, Chris found a vulnerability with a murder for hire site on the dark net. He could exploit that vulnerability to intercept the murder orders that were being placed: names, addresses, pattern of life information, photos, and, in some cases, bitcoin payments. He reached out to Carl for help, and a small team was built in secret to intercept and triage these orders. However, after their warnings to the police fell on deaf ears, they ultimately decided to warn the targets on the kill list directly. After an initial series of successes, the investigation expanded rapidly and they formed a global cooperation with the FBI and police forces around the world, resulting over 175 murder orders being disclosed, 34 arrests 28 convictions and over 180 years of prison time being sentenced. This talk will be about those years: about the dangers and threats the team had to navigate, the times of isolation when the police wouldn’t take them seriously, about raids in Romania to uncover the cyber-criminal gang running the site and the psychological impact of racing against time to try to stop people getting murdered.

PEP 810 – Explicit lazy imports
Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs)
PEP 810 – Explicit lazy imports | peps.python.org
This PEP introduces syntax for lazy imports as an explicit language feature:
 This PEP introduces syntax for lazy imports as an explicit language feature: ```python lazy import json lazy from json import dumps ``` Lazy imports defer the loading and execution of a module until the first time the imported name is used, in contrast to ‘normal’ imports, which eagerly load and execute a module at the point of the import statement. By allowing developers to mark individual imports as lazy with explicit syntax, Python programs can reduce startup time, memory usage, and unnecessary work. This is particularly beneficial for command-line tools, test suites, and applications with large dependency graphs. This proposal preserves full backwards compatibility: normal import statements remain unchanged, and lazy imports are enabled only where explicitly requested.

Plugging a little dongle into the cigarette lighter could block that surveillance, but ended up causing way more problems than it solved.

Lo que no veo tan claro es si es evitable la degeneración del estado. Al final, el poder atrae a quien lo ansía y está dispuesto a lo que sea por él. No veo casos en los que la concentración de poder no haya traído con sí abusos y un resultado neto negativo. Y cualquier barrera o límite que se ha intentado poner para limitar el tamaño de un estado, ha fallado. Entonces la pregunta ya no es si estado pequeño ideal o anarquía real con sus problemas. Es o estado que crecer hasta reventar o intentar otra cosa.

Privacy Is Just the Start. Now Let’s Make It Sustainable. – Untraceable Digital Dissident
If your privacy stack still leaves you anxious, exhausted, and scattered something’s wrong.
 You locked down your data. Now what? Cool. You’re not leaking location to Meta. Your phone’s running Graphene. Your browser’s hardened. But here’s the part they don’t tell you: privacy alone won’t save your mind. The noise still gets in. The real enemy now isn’t just surveillance. It’s burnout. Overload. A thousand signals screaming for your attention some from Big Tech, some from your own side.

The Fourth Turning Explained: Why It Matters and How to Prepare for What’s Next https://www.resilientnotreliant.com/articles/the-fourth-turning-explained The Fourth Turning is more than just a historical theory—it’s a framework that helps us understand the cycles of history and how they shape the world we live in today. Developed by historians William Strauss and Neil Howe, this theory suggests that history moves in cycles, each lasting about 80-100 years, and broken into four distinct phases, or “turnings.” These turnings reflect patterns of social and political upheaval, growth and rebirth. Understanding them can offer valuable insight into where we are headed.

browser extension to replace archive.org. Contribute to fiatjaf/nostr-web-archiver development by creating an account on GitHub.
 Nostr Archiver Extension is a browser extension for archiving websites and publishing them to blossom. This is a fork of ArchiveWeb.page with the goal of replacing archive.org with a decentralized, crowdsourced, and crowdfunded effort to preserve the legacy of the web, fix the problem of broken links, and harness the power of the multitude instead of delegating this important job to a single organization. The extension creates, stores, and replays high-fidelity web archives stored directly in the browser's storage (via IndexedDB). Archives can be published to Nostr relays using the Blossom protocol for decentralized storage and sharing.
