Har du barn hemma som vill lära sig hur internet fungerar? Eller hur man skickar e-post? Eller vad som händer när man skriver in en webbadress i webbläsaren? https://enkelkod.se/computers.html Min introduktionskurs i datorer och internet är avsedd för just dessa nyfikna sinnen. Kursen hålls i klassrum där barnen får lära sig om teknik på ett roligt sätt. #stockholm #bergshamra

@honze_net@infosec.exchange I pushed some changes in the UI to show that user made a loop, and also core update for smaller number of events in case running such loop.

Dear #network teachers, students and #hacker friends, I have a #browser based network simulator to enable learning #networking. Please have a look and tell me what do you think. Made for desktop or bigger screens. https://howcomputer.works/netsim/ Everything is in the browser, and there is documentation. The goal is to allow kids to start learning while their schools/systems are not big enough to be able to build lab networks. It has a small/minimal #curl implementation too. @bagder@mastodon.social

Do you use #OpenPGP for #ssh or #git #sign? #tumpa-cli is the developer friendly tool to keep like simpler for all us and replaces the usage in password-store https://github.com/tumpaproject/tumpa-cli#quickstart The original desktop application Tumpa will have a new release very soon.
Please boost for more visibility

Today #Sweden pushing the laws to make us wait for 8 years for #citizenship while traveling is very much restricted during these 8 years. Destroying people's career and life at the same time. https://www.svt.se/nyheter/inrikes/skarpta-krav-for-svenskt-medborgarskap
