Box art of the day:

just for fun i can add a bit to the xscreensaver drama: one can easily run xscreensaver and swaylock in parallel. swaylock supports transparent (alpha) backgrounds. xscreensaver could also be activated by swayidle. thus, xscreensaver doesn't need idle nor locking functionality under wayland (wlroots at least).

Ask for help when you need it. It sounds simple, but trying to handle everything without help causes stress and anxiety for a lot people.

Like seemingly everyone on this app I have plenty of opinions about the launch of The Torment Nexus, the opening of the Xthonic Gateway, and release of the arch-demon Tzaunh MAY HIS REIGN BE DARK AND ETERNAL, who has begun his foretold 10,000 years of suffering and torment. I figure now is a good time to open up a bit about my experience at the company.

Hey all. I know a pretty kick ass person who's found themselves on the job market. They're a PNW based individual looking for a remote gig as an Incident Response Manager flavored role.

I've worked an incident with them and can vouch for their capabilities. When talking the client through what steps to perform they were knowledgeable, communicated clearly, empathetic, and professional.

I'm more than happy to broker introductions or pass along info. They're a catch and I want to see them in a happy supportive place.

🚨 BREAKING: The UK government has confirmed it is rowing back on its plans to scan private messages.

They've finally back down with an announcement that Ofcom won't use powers in the spy clause contained in the Online Safety Bill until it's 'technically feasible' to do so.

They've conceded that no current technology exists that would protect privacy or avoid breaking encryption.
