  1. #PSA for #writingcommunity #writersOfMastodon. I reported @Heywrites @mastodon.social as "something else" unsure if it's a writer baiting #scam, but it feels like it. Beware. #fediwarn

    #BoostingIsSharing

    Not sure of the angle, maybe attracting vulnerable writers outside Mastodon before springing the writer scam. Doesn't bother verifying tho it could. Feels AI generated as part of a meme generator. Very suspicious.

  2. #PSA: Don't mix up PGDG and PGDG:

    PGDG is the #PostgreSQL Global Development Group — good people and good software.

    PGDG (.org) stands for "Pornography, Gambling, Drugs and Gaming" and seems to be a radical Christian sect or so… 🤪

    And no, I don't know why the latter group use that #abbreviation because their full name actually seems "Stop Pornography, Gambling, Drugs and Gaming Addiction", but they don't call them "SPGDGA" and hence don't include the negation in their abbreviation. 🤷

  3. I thought the Cybersecurity Awareness Month is over? But on and on and on it goes: wordfence.com/blog/2026/11/cve

    Only affects apache web servers where HTTP2 is enabled, but then it could be potentially serious. Debian has already new packages out, and upgrade is as easy as `apt upgrade` (or to be very specific and leave the rest of the system untouched `apt install --only-upgrade apache2`).

    So go upgrade now!
