Megalodon has removed the defunct Memento search. The HTTP Framework for Time-Based Access to Resource States, also known as Memento, is a protocol for searching for snapshots of a website across different archives. In 2025, the Memento TimeTravel—which was used by Megalodon—shut down citing "budget and organizational refocusing". Megalodon now shows links to the Wayback Machine, archive.today, Japan's National Diet Library Web Archiving Project, Ghostarchive, and the Portuguese...

Today, I used the single stall woman's room at a bar in a red state. The manager of the establishment (somehow) learned of this, and complained to the people I was with. I do not have the details of what was said, but the people I was with (family members) left and were extremely angry at me. To be clear: I, a completely sober adult, went into the single person woman's bathroom, locked the door, used it, and left. Nobody was harmed. I wasn't loud, or messy, or damaged the equipment....

@hans Not because there's anything illegal or incriminating on it, it's the principle: this is private, this is mine, and I'll do with it what I please. Not a lawyer. Wiping your phone in order to prevent law enforcement from searching it would probably be illegal, regardless of if there is evidence on the phone itself. In Federal law, this falls under 18 U.S. Code § 2232. Different states have their own statutes for destruction of evidence, e.g. Ohio. I don't think this is a...

Since early July, 313 Team has used DDoS service Cypher to conduct their attacks. 313 Team has also promoted Cypher on their Telegram. According to Cypher's owner, they provide their services to 313 Team in exchange for 313 Team promoting Cypher. The owner said they started working with 313 Team while the group used their previous service. According to the owner, Cypher has over 100 active users, including 313 Team.

The Actually Legitimate URL Shortener—along with Dandelion Sprout's other filterlists—do not and will not support any Manifest Version 3 content filtering extension. This decision was made by Imre—after consulting with me and with my full support. These lists will not function in MV3 extensions; they will exclude all rules from being enforced when loaded in an MV3 extension. Moreover, uBlock Origin Lite does not currently support one of the critical features used by Legit URL: regex remov...

RE: https://masto.ai/@transworld/116824552438170757 In making this film, what surprised us most was not anti-trans opposition, but silence from our own community and industry. People and institutions that express support privately, but will not support it publicly. This project has taught us that the opposite of courage isn’t fear, it’s silence.

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@iampytest1/116562802737738495 In a post on their Telegram channel about the DDoS of Spotify, 313 Team said this and other attacks were in retaliation of the US and Israel's killing of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Spotify is a Swedish company, and it is unclear why they are being targeted. 313 Team also said they increased the severity of their attack, taking down Spotify's login page. I have been unable to confirm this.
