Every country absolutely needs to have a disaster management plan in place that does not include any action whatsoever from the United States.

This includes a communication plan where the US will be actively spreading misinformation and disinformation to make up for dear leaders incompetency on top of the known bad actors from mostly Russia whose agenda is to weaken the rest of the world.

Any country that does not have a plan that absolutely excludes the US is being negligent at this point.

Communication plans must also not rely on corporate media. They are not our allies in the fight for global health. They are extensions of the capitalist class and if the solution to keep us alive threatens Q4 earnings.... Guess what is more important?

This is not a drill. I literally just defended a dissertation on how the media killed people during COVID. I have receipts.

Probably going to get a viral blog out of this experience, I'm trying to report a 4tb exposed cloud bucket to a company using their responsible disclosure programme... but they replaced the people with a GenAI ticket system that refuses to discuss the case as it thinks exploring open buckets is unethical and against its rules.

Today’s poem is called ‘Late Twentieth-Century Techno-Funk Wake-Up Call’.

I've visited the ruins of Fountains Abbey quite a few times, but this is the first time with the 360 camera.

Love the pattern of the vaulted roof.

I feel like the single best meme in history - this one still makes me laugh every time - needs an update for the "AI" era.

1. assume every camera has film unless you personally verify otherwise
2. never point a camera at something you're not willing to photograph
3. never put your finger on the shutter button until you're ready to take a photograph
4. always be aware of the subject of your photograph and what is behind the subject

Oracle have laid off 30k employees today. They did it to personal email accounts at 6am 🫡 saying they needed the money to spend on GenAI instead. https://thenextweb.com/news/oracle-layoffs-march-2026

Oracle’s share price since they went GenAI nuts:

The idea that Office 365 is compliant for use in any regulated space is *absolutely laughable*, but apparently the reason GCC High is approved for government use is because the government let agencies use it while they were evaluating it, and then realized so many agencies were now dependent on it, that they had to approve it even though it wasn't able to actually meet the security criteria.
