🇺🇸🇨🇳 Chinese GPUs outdo Nvidia chips nearly tenfold in supercomputer simulation

“In search of a breakthrough, Professor Nan Tongchao with the State Key Laboratory of Hydrology-Water Resources and Hydraulic Engineering at Hohai University in Nanjing, began exploring a “multi-node, multi-GPU” parallel computing approach based on domestic CPUs and GPUs.

The results of their research were published in the Chinese Journal of Hydraulic Engineering”

The Open Source Initiative Has No Control of "Open Source" (but they want it!)

The OSi has tried for years to control "Open Source"... and they've failed. Their quest for "Open Source" power is a dramatic one: Threats, Trademark Disputes, & Lies.

Hackers Exploit Signal's Linked Devices Feature to Hijack Accounts via Malicious QR Codes

Multiple Russia-aligned threat actors have been observed targeting individuals of interest via the privacy-focused messaging app Signal to gain unauthorized access to their accounts.

The most novel and widely used technique underpinning Russian-aligned attempts to compromise Signal accounts is the abuse of the app's legitimate 'linked devices' feature that enables Signal to be used on multiple devices concurrently," the Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) said in a report.

In the attacks spotted by the tech giant's threat intelligence teams, the threat actors, including one it's tracking as UNC5792, have resorted to malicious QR codes that, when scanned, will link a victim's account to an actor-controlled Signal instance.

Once compromised, threat actors gain real-time access to victim messages, enabling persistent surveillance.

Ransacked - Cellular Security | Florida Institute for Cybersecurity Research –

We discover 119 vulnerabilities in LTE/5G core infrastructure, each of which can result in persistent denial of cell service to an entire metropolitan area or city and some of which can be used to remotely compromise and access the cellular core. Our research covers seven LTE implementations (Open5GS, Magma, OpenAirInterface, Athonet, SD-Core, NextEPC, srsRAN) and three 5G implementations (Open5GS, Magma, OpenAirInterface); we find vulnerabilities in every single LTE/5G implementation tested.

Our research finds these vulnerabilities are present in both well-maintained open-source LTE/5G cores and in proprietary software, both of which have active deployments in commercial settings.

Modular alternative. (s6 supervision suite)

--- In summary, the speaker presents sixos, a nixpkgs-based OS that replaces systemd with s6, instituting a more modular approach to service management while addressing concerns about systemd's complexity and control dynamics. The project aims for a user-centric design, maintaining features from NixOS while functioning independently.

🚨BREAKING🚨

Apple is removing its most robust data protection tool from UK users.

This decision by Apple is the regrettable consequence of the Home Office’s outrageous order attempting to force Apple to breach encryption. As a result, from today Apple’s UK customers are less safe and secure than they were yesterday – and this will quickly prove to have much wider implications for internet users in the UK.

No matter how this is framed, there is simply no such thing as a “back door” that can be limited only to criminals or that can be kept safe from hackers or foreign adversaries. Once encryption is broken for anyone, it’s broken for everyone, and as we have cautioned: this will not stop with Apple.

We once again call on the Home Office to immediately rescind this draconian order and cease attempts to break encryption before the privacy rights of millions are eroded and the UK further ostracises itself from other democracies around the world.

As federal employees, Elon is really focused on cutting funding to our department. Not only do I have to figure out what I can say I've accomplished over the past week, but they've taken down our primary channel too (I bet you didn't know "ban waves" are really just FBI budget cuts). They seem to have missed this one for now. Typical government incompetency.

Durov has made it clear that we aren't welcome. Those who take personal and operational security seriously should not use Telegram to communicate. We knew our time here was finite, and so we tried alternatives like SimpleX. It didn't take long for the tens of thousands of you fine dissidents to break the app; in fact, I still can't open SimpleX without it crashing. For small groups, it's fine, but for a big community like ours, syncing messages between every observer in the chat becomes taxing on your device.

That said, it is still the best censorship-proof option we have, so if you haven't joined our chat and channel, you may wish to do so. [If these links don't work for you, copy and paste the addresses into SimpleX to open them, don't mindlessly tap on the links here like a retard and wonder why you can't connect. Thank you.]

Some mods have offered to run a third iteration of the channel here, where they have agreed to self-police and only post news and FCC-compliant content. We've toyed with the idea of a Dread clone on TOR, or something Iron March-adjacent. Maybe we will. What I don't think is appropriate is to keep buying e-SIMs to churn out Telegram accounts/channels, which in turn, get blacklisted for posting "illegal content."

Of course, Telegram never specifies what the illegal content was. If it wasn't about calling Hasidic-Americans schizophrenic, it could have been because the Biden administration designated the so-called "Terrorgram Collective" as terrorists, but to that I say, "how can it be a hate crime when we loved doing it?" We've been good goys and hardly ever fedpost anymore! 😇

If this is the end, it's been a hell of a run. We've been here for six years(!) We identified a niche that was sorely unaddressed for /our guys/, and contributed what we could. I'd like to think that we helped some of you avoid the pinch of Johnny Law. The number one rule is "don't get caught," and I think it's time we take our own advice. And to be frank, we don't think our Top Secret security clearance is worth jeopardizing for the .46 TON we didn't get a chance to claim on the other channel.

Thanks to all of the cool cats who shared our content through the years. And a personal shout out to our tireless mods and jannies, who, just like us, did it for free.
