“Lakon RAT-01, You are cleared to land, pad #6.”
I don’t really know where to go with some of this; I’m geniunely afraid I’m going to start sounding like a conspiracy theorist. The conspiracies have already staked out their territory, though, which makes this whole topic a bit of a mine-field.
Strava (a fitbit competitor health bracelet tracking device) released “heat maps” of their data-sets. I suspect that is going to change fairly quickly, but the information security world has been having a ton of fun with it.
I’m going to get to see Lisbon, with a bit of luck, but only from the connecting cattle-chute. This week coming up I’ll be speaking at the IT-Defense conference in Munich, [itd] so I am not sure whether I’ll be writing much, or not.

I don’t expect I’ll go completely silent, but I’ll be home Friday, with a bit of luck.
Some of the fake news that the righteous fringe get is the Jim Bakker sort: it’s the end of days, buy our bucket of tasteless high-calorie chum. Sometimes I get really nasty stuff, like this.

Back in March, 2017, I posted about US “still no boots on the ground” Stryker AFVs and Humvees being deployed at Manbij in Syria, [stderr] in order to keep the swirling mess of people shooting at each other from turning into Turkish military shooting at Kurdish Peshmergas who had occupied Manbij.
My friend Steve Zimmerman [stderr] had a hobby: getting smashed on weed and painkillers and playing with fractals.
Just lean over there and hit the “rewind” button for a second; take us back to… July 2016.
