I'd like to add that after 8 days, the battery level has only dropped by 1%.
So, yeah, it seems like maybe my battery pack is absurdly large. Like to the point where it will charge up during the summer and last the entire winter, which is just absolutely insane.

Testing #solar power in my kitchen window (no direct sunlight due to the roof overhang) taught me, I get absolutely zero power. Literally none.
Now it's time for direct sunlight testing:
Currently getting 0.37A (1.85W) despite the angle being imperfect.
If you want to be a git ninja, this will teach you all the ins and outs of git:
https://wizardzines.com/zines/oh-shit-git/
It is way more than I think most people need to know, but it's basically the ultimate reference guide.
My suggestion would beto learn Git. Then you can use GitLab, GitHub, GitTea, and all the others in one fell swoop. Besides, you'll likely need to learn git at some point anyway.
Here's an example to obtain a copy of the signet client repo.
git clone https://gitlab.hax0rbana.org/signet/signet-client.git
Then, assuming you made an empty repo on Microsoft GitHub with the same repo name, you tell git about that repo and push the code over there with this:
git remote add github git@github.com:yourusername/signet-client.git
git push github trunk
Sometimes git may tell you that you have to run a command differently (e.g. the first time you push to a new repo as oppossed to the way you do so thereafter).
Git can be incredibly complicated, but if you are just doing the basics, it doesn't have to be. If you learn clone, branch, checkout, status, diff, commit and push, you'll be able to do nearly everything. There are other commands like tag, rebase, and remote, but they are seldom used.
Matrix. Your choice of server and app. Has e2ee. It's federated, interoperable, etc.
No we have our own GitLab server at https://gitlab.hax0rbana.org/signet
I would be okay with it being mirrored on Microsoft GitHub or GitLab.com, but the main copy will stay on our own server.

Image search and video seach is still working, but wev search shows no results no matter what query is entered. Here's an example:
Also, the web search on the .onion site worked as of Tuesday night, so this is something fairly new.
I actually switched to Kagi because I was having trouble with DuckDuckGo not giving me the search results I was looking for. I felt like it was Kagi's time to shine, but unfortunately Kagi turned out to be even worse in this case

Documentation and testing are great places to start and they are they are frequently the biggest areas where projects are lacking.
If you're willing to help with nostr:nprofile1qqsf3vs4hphtnaqg6ekqxg3vfkhuhetnrejt696dn6l292jm9rjvntcpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qgawaehxw309ahx7um5wghxy6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctc65awq5, I'd be happy to help you get started. 😁 It'd be cool to have a second contributor.
Project info is here:
I've always written documentation because I needed it myself. I always try to contribute it to the project instead of keeping it as my own personal notes.
If the maintainers don't like the format or structure, they'll say something about it on the merge requests. After one out two MRs, it gets much smoother.
Oh man, I think this was lexan, not plexi. This thing is HEAVY! It's also now constructed. 🎉
It'll fit over the printer, but the power cord makes it awkward. I'm going to see if I have a 90° one tomorrow. For now: sleep. 🛌
1. Print 4 brackets to make an enclosure for #3Dprinter
2. Procrastinate for a few days
3. Realize I need 8 brackets, not just 4
4. Print 4 more brackets
5. Cut plexiglass
6. Drill holes and bolt things together
7. ..and now I have to wait another hour for that print to finish
I should still have it done by the end of the night. I just hope it's big enough. Tolerances are tighter than usual than I'd like on this one.
This paper on remote code execution (RCE) on GPUs is great. Dead simple examples of how to do it, including the Python code.

It'd be so easy to backdoor these things and have a release that just skims off the top. Make a package that does what the user wants and is super easy to install and run and as long as you're not too greedy, I bet it'd work just fine for a long time.
Might want to hide it better than a wget call to github, but that's just minor details.
I started reading the TrustZero paper. So far I am not impressed. Here's a quote: "Even though this architecture [zero-trust] was introduced in 2010, to this day, no real-world open-source reference applications have been made"
Umm, what? This concept of continous verificatiton of every user and device regardless of their locaton was invented in 2010? What about the entire cypherpunk movement?
There are no implementations of it? What about PGP? Bitcoin? FIDO2? Nostr? DIDs?
I'm going to keep reading and try to understand their perspective. I can't imagine they are not aware of these things, so I'm curious as to why they feel these don't qualify as being zero-trust.
I just tried the extension and it doesn't work with the .onion site and since they block Tor users from the .com site.
nostr:nprofile1qqsrgyzdaheuckfksqkgxz9r6qys72zh6j46f69hyzkv4a4j4vzfj6gppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0hudmam are you willing to update your Firefox extension to look at both kagi dot com and the dot onion site? If so, how many days will it take to make it into the Mozilla add-ons?
Yeah, I've head good things about their results.
The only complaints I've heard about them is that they wasn't to put AI into everything (like even more than the rest of silicon valley).
That and they block Tor users, obviously.
I have an account, but I seldom want to open up a special browser and go to their site instead of simply using my URL bar to do searches. They still won't be my go-to until I can just type in my search into Tor Browser and have Kagi give me results. I probably won't renew if they don't get to that level in a few weeks when my subscription expires.
I missed the TunnelVision vulnerability from last year: https://www.leviathansecurity.com/blog/tunnelvision
It just goes to show, when you look at the extra features and options in something (in this case, DHCP), you'd be amazed at what you find!
