Topics[edit | edit source]
- (ciara) Framework computer data breach
Leaks! https://techcrunch.com/2026/08/07/computer-maker-framework-notifies-all-customers-of-a-data-breach/ Anubis, there is another alterative iocaine? Like every OSS dev, libre, have their own ecosystem to manage; GPL; don't want random ppl working on the project. One example people are forking the project from codeberg to github; which is legit for GPL; are trying to to subvert integration with github devs poisoning git repo for github.
- (ciara) nix core team expanding
Core team change up? There was some military funding causing rifts in the team.
guix -
- (ciara) development platform ... ?
- live network debugging - re: Erik's questions about DNS in NB (local? global?)
wifi issues - in coffee shops - Captive Portal tracking mac address captive network, maybe here at noisebridge? paying for wifi on a plane, only allows register one mac address;
``` curl 1.1.1 IP tricks ```
Hit the root servers com directs to google
- Glue records
A DNS glue record is an IP address record (an A or AAAA record) supplied by a parent zone or registry. It provides the specific IP address of a child domain's name server when that name server lives inside the domain itself, stopping an infinite lookup loop
Who manages the zone? Do we get an ip address? Does web browser work? ping; nslookup; 10.21.3.202
$ resolvectl dns global 1.1.1.1 $
cat /etc/resolv.conf host google.com ip l ip r man resolvectl man systemd-resolved.service nslookup resolvectl dns resolvectl dns -h resolvectl dns 1.1.1.1 resolvectl dns eno1 1.1.1.1 resolvectl dns global 1.1.1.1 resolvectl domain sudo resolvectl dns eno1 1.1.1.1
the lovely thing about the DNS landscape on linux, is there are ~ 5 ways to set up DNS resolution. You'll have to know your distro ~deeply. And can sometimes set it up cross repo.
IPv6 - ICMP

pings over http observe wifi like a geiger counter, latency monitor with insitu physical interference

An "Atmosphere Explorer" in the AT Protocol (atproto) ecosystem refers to web-based diagnostic and navigation tools used to inspect decentralized user repositories, data records, and live firehoses across the ATmosphere network (the collective term for services built on AT Protocol, like Bluesky). Popular community-built explorer tools include lightweight ledger navigators like pdsls, the AT Proto Explorer, and experimental network viewers like
