What work is actually involved in the Software Bill of Materials stuff? When I search for "Freebsd SBOM" I mostly get references to this news story.

There seems to be tools that generate SBoM reports automatically, is it just a case of adding plugins into the build pipeline?

The North Yorkshire power plant, which burns wood pellets imported from North America

So the trees are grown in America, processed in America and then transported across the Atlantic before getting to Yorkshire? That must use up all the carbon budget before it's even burnt, surely?

Media Bias/Fact Check is rated with High Creditability by Media Bias Fact Check.

Good, I guess.

It's understood the same as a middle finger would be, except more Britishly.

Growing up, the story was that it came from when longbows were peak weaponry and the French were chopping the fingers off of captured English archers - the V sign was saying something like "fuck you, I can still shoot you". There's insult/defiance/threat in there but it's not like throwing down the gauntlet (to be clear, we don't do that gesture any more).

This makes sense.

Using rainfall as a(n inverse) proxy for protests is very clever. Interesting to see how the MLK violent protests actually were counterproductive and increased the republican vote share.

I'd heard this as a plumber who knocked a pipe with a spanner.

 

After a conversation in !isitdown@infosec.pub I was looking for status pages. Does infosec.pub have one?

This is ridiculously petty from the devs, and does make me seriously wonder about Lemmy's future.
