The #US #Military thinks they own the skies wherever they fly and that they don't have to abide by any "civilian" rules and regulations.

Also, we need to stop this practice of military "fly overs". Ignoring the abject #jingoism, they're dangerous as fuck! #FAA #safety #DCA #Delta

Another close call at #DCA. I fly in and out of there so much- this is really starting to worry me. Maybe I should switch to IAD and just suck up the extra ground travel time

TCAS alerts at DCA were "Secret Service and U.S. Navy activity" and "the two agencies “improperly” testing counter-drone technology near the airport on March 1." per US Senator. https://www.flyingmag.com/false-alerts-dca-cause/

Apple vs EU

Monet Applen tekoälyominaisuudet tai vaikka uusi iPhonen ruudujako ovat jääneet telineisiin täällä päin maailmaa, koska Apple väittää EU:n vaatimusten tekevän heidän systeemeistään turvattomampia.

Kuitenkin on monia avoimeen lähdekoodiin perustuvia sovelluksia, esimerkiksi Signal ja Bitwarden joita nyt lähtökohtaisesti pidetään turvallisina. Miten heillä tuo homma onnistuu ja Applella ei?

Nyt saa vääntää rautalangasta, koska mä en ole oikeasti mikään ihan niin kultivoitunut tekkiukko.
