@mheiber, @effye and myself have just sent the news about this #mastodon instance to the whole company. So, expect a lot of newcomers.
And to all #ThoughtWorkers, welcome #onhere.
Malicious Python libraries stealing OpenPGP and SSH keys:
https://www.zdnet.com/article/two-malicious-python-libraries-removed-from-pypi/
– Look for python3-dateutil, and jeIlyfish.
– Both modules try to exfiltrate SSH/OpenPGP keys and send them to an IP address.
– This is the third time the PyPI team intervenes to remove typo-squatted malicious Python libraries from the official repository.
Mojeek Privacy Search Engine Expands
UK based Mojeek is the third search engine with it's own crawler and index in English. They just announced that they are expanding the index. With another expansion due in 2021.
Mojeek is my favorite underdog search engine because they have the guts to actually build their own index while respecting your privacy.

And I posted this from this account, because I'm not crazy, this is not my personal machine. This is the #HardwareHackLab computer running windows 10.
The experience of installing an external device on a #Windows machine hasn't changed since 1995, minus the use of foppy disks. I just went through a cycle of multiple programs opening with weird messages and warnings telling me the connected device does not function properly. Rebooting. Reinstalling. That #Vive headset still does not function properly after 2 hours of trial and error. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

@stefanosaitta Welcome to #TootWorks!
Some pics from the #HardwareHackLab last night in #twBCN. Among other things, some made LEDs blink, other built an #mBot.
#tfw walking back home after a good #HardwareHackLab in #twBCN and nowing there is another one about to start in #twNYC.

I wonder what percentage of #Linux developers realize their choices not only affect different init systems on Linux, but also the BSDs: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/804254/71240d6b83844653/
This type of tech, #systemd and #docker being prime examples, are forms of open source vendor lock-in.
OMG... I can use my Macbook's touch ID as an #Okta second factor... I'm living in the future! ThoughtWorkers - check your Okta settings page if you want to do the same :)
Just received the #mBot kit, right on time for #HardwareHackLab tonight in #BCN.
Join us to assemble and play around with this #robot together.
