#InverteFest is running now through the 31st and since the weather here in Seattle has either been ice or pouring rain, I have instead sat inside and worked on my nature journal. I’ve painted two pages of invertebrates from my summer outings, both in Washington state. But one was east of the Cascades, in a climate very different from Seattle and as such, I was treated to a lot of different insects, including some really spectacular ambush bugs, which I hope to write a Field Journal article ...| Migratory Legends

In Diskussionen taucht häufig die Frage auf, wie man seine IP-Adresse gegenüber Google verbergen kann. Mit einem VPN-Provider und der App RethinkDNS (Android) lässt sich dies gezielt umsetzen – ohne den gesamten Datenverkehr durch ein VPN zu schleusen. Wichtig: Das Vorgehen ist nur dann sinnvoll, wenn keine Google-Dienste verwendet werden, bei denen persönliche Daten hinterlegt […]| Kuketz IT-Security » Blog + Microblog
Die Techniker‑Krankenkasse (TK) lobt ihre Android‑App gern als sicheren und bequemen Zugang zu Versichertendaten. Wer jedoch auf GrapheneOS oder ein anderes datenschutzorientiertes Custom‑ROM setzt, erlebt schnell eine harte Realität: Ohne installierte und aktive Google Play Services verweigert die TK‑App schlicht den Dienst – und zusätzlich auch dann, wenn sie nicht über den offiziellen Play Store […]| Kuketz IT-Security » Blog + Microblog
Wenn wir über Nachlass sprechen, denken viele an Haus, Konto oder Testament. Doch längst gehört auch unser digitales Leben dazu: E‑Mail‑Postfächer, Cloud‑Speicher, Social‑Media‑Profile, Online‑Banking, Kryptowährungen – all das bleibt zurück. Wer nicht vorsorgt, hinterlässt seinen Angehörigen im schlimmsten Fall unzugängliche Daten, offene Verträge und jede Menge Stress.

Let?s be honest?whether you?re devouring books in a single night or taking your time to savour each chapter, we all have our unique reading styles. Personally, I?m a type C all the way.

Have you ever gotten so pissed off with yourself that you were no longer angry, just disappointed? You know, parent-style-ee? If you?re anything like me, then it?s not a one-time thing.

Die US-amerikanische Datenanalyseplattform Palantir, konkret deren Softwarelösung »Gotham«, wird inzwischen in mehreren deutschen Bundesländern zur polizeilichen Gefahrenabwehr und Strafverfolgung eingesetzt – und das längst nicht mehr nur im Kontext von Terrorismus oder organisierter Kriminalität.

For those unfamiliar, The Chorus is an idea from Greek Dramas[*1] where a small collective detached from the narrative gives commentary and supplemental insight to the performance at hand. This is not to be confused with a traditional narrator without whom the story simply could not proceed, though a degree of overlap exists. If you're thinking Statler and Waldorf, you're close. What does this have to do with Tabletop Games? Well for all the comparisons I've heard between Theater and Tabletop...| Fail Forward
