Emerging from the inky void, like something out of a straight-to-video 1980s schlock horror movie with excessive tomato ketchup is #DarkMessenger version 1.4.0

Downloadable at https://freedombone.net/downloads/darkmessenger on all disreputable Android devices.

Dark Messenger is a version of the popular Conversations #XMPP app, but dedicated to using #onion addresses via an onion XMPP server. It makes opsec snafus extremely difficult to pull off, because everything is set up properly from the outset. Wave a kitschy goodbye to having to deal with complicated settings buried two levels deep under "Advanced". It also doesn't enforce TLS, since the onionspace doesn't really need that.

What do people use for HIDS/NIDS ?

How do you deal with e2e apps ?

I can't see the point of a NIDS (or rather, it seems less useful) when e2e is ubiquitous. Perhaps the NIDS will catch malformed packets, or provide a log of all transactions, but it won't be able to see packet content.

How do you implement HIDS ?

How can I improve just shovelling all the application logs into elasticsearch ?

If anyone's able to help disrupt this tomorrow night I'm sure it'd be much appreciated

People should probably be aware of Zap, especially if they are looking for a more Facebook-like approach to the fediverse. What it lacks in name recognition (not a priority - we aren't really into consumer cultism) is more than made up by what it can do for them today and the increased control they have over personal privacy.

The short summary of Zap is that I took Friendica (which I originally released as "Mistpark" in 2010) and rewrote it a few times (RedMatrix, Hubzilla, Osada, ...) over the years to keep making it better while adding more privacy features. Zap is the latest iteration of that development effort and the result of simpliying the UX, working on better compatibility with all the new kids on the block (Mastodon, Pleroma, Misskey, Pixelfed, ActivityPub, Zot6, etc.) without giving up any of our existing privacy, media, and mobility features.

Oh wow it's a video of the origin of the quote in my bio. I had no idea this existed. Thanks, @ike. What a treasure she was and will always be.

Through interviews, this film reflects on the effects of burnout within our movements, looks at reasons why it is such a common problem, and offers some tools and strategies how we can be more sustainable and inclusive in our activism.

Oh, a reminder to folks on SBC: we have a Matrix group chat (kinda like Discord) that you can join of you want to. It's most useful for if SBC goes offline for whatever reason, but can be used to chat generally as well.

Interesting article about "Red Plenty", book about a brief period in the 1950s when Soviet Union seemed to work.

Definitely gonna look more into this book.

We believe you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

#1) there are two wolves inside of you
#2) smash the state
#3) trans rights are human rights

“I often joke that there are two types of trans people: the kind who are anarchists, and the kind who haven’t tried to come out to their doctor.”
