ShinyHunters posted on Tuesday night in a hacking forum that it obtained data from Ticketmaster and its parent company, Live Nation, including customers’ names, addresses, emails, phone numbers, and order details, Cyber Daily wrote. The group is reportedly attempting to sell the stolen data for $500 million.

From this other link: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-29/ticketmaster-hack-allegedlyshinyhunter-customers-data-leaked/103908614

It said 1.3 terabytes of customer data possessed by Ticketmaster including names, addresses, credit card numbers, phone numbers and payment details is up for sale.

There are so many out there, a few that I came across include:

• Wallabag ( GitHub, Website): Older, long history, somewhat clunky now?
• LinkWarden (Website): Focus on multi user and teams?
• Raindrop.io (Website)
• Omnivore (Website)
• Hoarder (GitHub)
• Shiori (Article)
• Readeck (Website)

Having a giant comparison table for this might be nice

The Province is digitizing local permit processes to make it easier and faster for homeowners and industry professionals to submit applications to local governments and First Nations. The Building Permit Hub is the next step in the Province’s work to speed up homebuilding and reduce the costs of housing, and meet the Province’s goal for British Columbia to become a North American leader in digital permitting and construction.

The Building Permit Hub will address these challenges by offering a one-stop, simplified process, resulting in faster processing and review times. Builders will submit their permit applications online in the hub, which will:

• standardize building-permit submission requirements across jurisdictions in B.C.;
• automatically check that the permit application is complete; and
• automatically check compliance with key parts of the BC Building Code.

Twelve local governments and two First Nations will pilot the first version of the Building Permit Hub. The Building Permit Hub will go live on Monday, May 27, 2024, to allow communities to update the tool for their local requirements and permitting capability is expected to come online this summer. The hub will be further developed in summer with additional features added, such as permit applications for secondary suites and accessory dwelling units, and will eventually be available throughout the province, allowing every community to process building permits digitally.

I'm slowly switching to rechargeable ones (Ikea Ladda ones), but we still have lots of other batteries around.

Do you have a favourite device to test them with? Ideally it could test many different types (regular, coin), but I'm ok with just AA/AAA if there is a cheap/reliable option.

When I did a search just now, I saw recommendations both for and against multimeters/voltmeters. Some said it was easier, and others said that it wasn't accurate because of testing under load.

Thanks :)

I appreciate the graphics that they post, but this one was... Bad.

This is great news! And please also extend my deepest sympathies to whichever analyst was asked to cram this histogram into a pie chart.

They are taking the criticism in good faith though

Well, we're taking a pie in the face on this one @[...]

We try to make info like this as clear as we can, @[...], but we don't always get it right. Thanks for your feedback. We're, uh, cutting ourselves a slice of humble pie.

Today, the LockBit ransomware gang claimed they were behind the April cyberattack on Canadian pharmacy chain London Drugs and is now threatening to publish stolen data online after allegedly failed negotiations.

Or rather, homelabs and home labs?

The article is short so I recommend reading it. I started adding the key points below, but ended up including almost the entire article:

Number 16 (c. 1974 – 2016), also known as #16, was a wild female trapdoor spider (Gaius villosus, family Idiopidae) that lived in North Bungulla Reserve near Tammin, Western Australia. She lived an estimated 43 years and became the longest-lived spider on record, beating a 28-year-old tarantula who previously held the title. When Number 16 finally died in 2016, it was not of old age but from a parasitic wasp sting.

On March 1974, Australian arachnologist Barbara York Main began a long-term study of spider families. [...] Main returned to the site annually, sometimes more frequently, for more than four decades.

Like other trapdoor spiders, Number 16 spent her entire life in the same burrow, subsisting off the edible insects that walked on her burrow's trapdoor-like silk roof.

For her 40th birthday, research assistant Leanda Mason wanted to give the spider a mealworm, but Main denied the request since it would interfere with the study

Because of Number 16, Main's project took far longer than she had expected. She continued to work into her late 80s, but she "began to look forward to the project's end," The Washington Post reported. Finally, when Main's own health declined before the spider's, she passed the project on to Leanda Mason.

On 31 October 2016, researcher Leanda Mason discovered Number 16's burrow in disrepair. The spider was gone. Evidence suggested she was killed by a parasitic spider wasp

“She was cut down in her prime [...] It took a while to sink in, to be honest," said Mason

After retiring, Barbara York Main moved to a care facility for Alzheimer's. Leanda Mason, who kept in contact with her mentor, said in 2018 that Barbara "remembers No. 16" but "forgets that she’s died."
