  • The head of the investigation, Risto Lohi of the National Bureau of Investigation, told Reuters the vessel was threatening to cut a second power cable, Estlink1, and the BalticConnector gas pipe between Finland and Estonia at the time it was seized.

    "Lohi" is Finnish for "salmon". That's right. Inspector Salmon is in charge of this investigation. Thankyou, Finland.

  • Mobile push notifications really are pushed. It's actually quite a fascinating problem, because phones are suspended to RAM most of the time and network events need to be able to wake a phone from this state.

    In Android Land, just one notification system, called Firebase Cloud Messaging, handles almost all of the push notifications. And it's controlled by Google lol. The situation is similar in Apple Land.

  • Neat, I guess, but for as long as it's Bluesky servers handling all of the actual real accounts, it's no different from Twitter.

    Meanwhile, AP already has hundreds of independent servers each with their own accounts.

  • Wellll, that was back when basically all of Europe was just as racist as Germany, and imperialist on top of it. A lot has changed since then. Still, I guess it does still serve as a helpful reminder of how quickly things can change.
