New, by me: If you're not using ad blockers, you should be! I wrote 2,000+ words on why you should use them and how to get started.

In this deep-dive blog, I explain why ad blockers are critical for your online security and privacy, what threats ad blockers can help defend against, and we'll look at some of the best ad blockers out there.

Next year in November, the Voyager 1 spacecraft will be ONE full light day away from the Earth!

Launched in 1977, it took almost 50 Earth years to reach "just" distance of 1 light day

I can't tell you how I feel about this... "Spyware maker NSO Group confirms acquisition by US investors" Is this better or is this way worse now? This company gives me the heebie-jeebies, their business practices make me ill, and the software makes me mad. All sorts of bad around these people.

Wanted to share: I am really impressed with as a music streaming service. I was on for a decade, then for a year... neither of them feel "about the music," only about the "business," if you know what I mean. Tidal is a refreshing change. $2 for a 60 day trial or free 30 day one. I already know I'm a convert on week two. Playlists easily transferred with TuneMyMusic. I like to share when I find something good.

"The least amount of CSS for a decent looking site" is a refreshing example of simple CSS elegance. In a web full of complicated design solutions and patterns that get amplified and become the norm, this is an example that I hope is modeled by others.

In 2018 (if not 2017) I bought my favourite pair of shoes (on the left), the Peu. Those shoes have been around the world multiple times, explored many cities and walked many kilometers. On the right is my new pair I got this weekend. I'm looking forward to the journey with them. Buy well made shoes that you love, you won't regret it.

This is an exceptional report for so many reasons but what I almost quite literally love about it is the number of external references to other security companies. It paints a picture of rigorous research with appropriate source attribution for specific statements or conclusions.

It makes for a quite refreshing read merging multiple perspectives including external as well as internally available data/information.

This is a report worth spreading if only for the structure.
