The xz backdoor was initially caught by a software engineer at Microsoft. He noticed 500ms lag and thought something was suspicious.

This is the Silver Back Gorilla of nerds. The internet final boss.

Can you believe we've reached a point in tech where a package named "is-even" has millions of downloads?

hey guys, there is this thing called the modulus operator, and it works JUST FINE

@galunga70 Looks great. How does the mount do with that much gear? I have the old version and I don’t think it can handle much more than a dslr. To be fair, I haven’t used it much.

@gregpoirier Looks like this issue was part of some major issues they were having yesterday

@Deep_Sky_Dude @AstroStace @VisibleDark_ @AstroBackyard @AstrophotoJoes @sjb_astro After a similarly long cloudy stretch, I had about the same problem this week. Mine seemed to have resolved itself with updating NINA and moving the focuser connection to a different part of the usb hub, by plugging it into camera. Glad to hear you sorted it!

@_hyp3ri0n Oh, then I’m sure any of them are good :-)

[Jason Hopper @jason_hopper]

@jenniferamcoop Holy cow. Wrongfully taking one accessible spot is insane, that is just unbelievable

[Jason Hopper @jason_hopper]

@RGKelley5 I think @_hyp3ri0n did a similar test recently and came to the same conclusion

[Jason Hopper @jason_hopper]

@_hyp3ri0n Give me your SSN and I’ll tell you.

Wow, Morbius was really bad.

@astro_addict @zwoasi Is the focuser arm touching the bearing? If so you could add some washers under the arm where it attaches to the body. Otherwise it looks good to me as well.

@_hyp3ri0n Where did you even get a Polaroid? Did you print one off Instagram?

[Jason Hopper @jason_hopper]

@oceantechkyle My basement floods and we have a sump pump. We got a generator mainly for that. It’s much cheaper than repairs.

@RGKelley5 @TwitterBlue A timeline without a linear time dependency is just a line.

@RGKelley5 It looked familiar at first, but after reading the plot I dont think I remember it

I got a really convincing phish today from @PayPal. And when I say "from Paypal", the from address is [email protected]. I knew right away that I didn't have a PayPal account for this email, so I was sure it was fake. It took me a minute to figure out what I was looking at. 🧵

@_hyp3ri0n Have you ever wondered if your dog has never named you at all? #mindblown #existential-ish
