Je découvre cette carte, permettant de retracer année après année, l'histoire des câbles sous-marins.

On y voit aussi le débit potentiel de chaque ville. C'est assez fascinant d'un point de vue géopolitique d'internet.

Par exemple, on constate que ces cinq dernières années, les GAFAM (et particulièrement Meta et Google) sont les principaux acteurs du déploiement de nouveaux câbles, alors qu'aux débuts c'étaient plutôt les Télécoms.

FINALS #FaggotTourney ANNOUNCEMENTS THREAD (DO NOT VOTE HERE):

The bracket has completely distended itself to accommodate the SHEER HOMOSEXUALITY of the TWO FINALISTS:

The VERMIN-FRUIT CUMFOAMER: BASED LUNATIC, AKA DANCING DICEY! That's @BasedLunatic

and...

The CREAMSISSY RAGING HOMER SENSUAL, SIRROGUEKNIGHT - @SiRrogueKnight - who has blessed us with a WONDERFUL song celebrating his COMPLETE AND TOTAL VICTORY over JEFFERY CLIFFORD and THE VAXX GANG.

The finals will be held starting on the 27th of June, 10PM Central Time. Finals will run for EXACTLY 48 hours afterwards. This match will go until the very end no matter how wide of a margin one entrant has over the other.

Match results: If it wasn't clear, SRK beat Jeff 40-25.

Notes:

If things go wrong, then the tournament will continue at @ceoofmonoeyedating.

Rules for voting:

1) Voters must meaningfully be on Fedi. That means they must federate with at least one of poa.st, lab.nyanide.com, or nicecrew.digital, have held an account on such an instance since February 2025, AND not be on Pedi.
2) If you are muted by CMD, your vote won't be counted. My mutelist is listed in the thread. You have to fuck up EXTREMELY BAD to make it there. Seemingly actionable threats, bribery, and voting from more than one account are examples of actions which tend to land you there.
3) Participants may not vote - either way - on a match that they are entered in.
4) Reply publicly to the corresponding pinned thread with any unambiguous declaration of intent to vote for one of the two people in the match. Each person has one vote, and they must be the person to post this in the thread.
5) If you fuck up badly enough that I consider adding rules, then you will be punished somehow.

Help request. My brother has Stage 4 colorectal cancer.

His life insurance has refused to pay out on a technicality, meaning he and his loved ones cannot afford the mortgage on their home.

I've never asked for anything in return for infosec stuff, but if you have anything spare, please chuck it this direction instead:

Contrôle d’identité « au faciès » : la France condamnée par la CEDH, une décision inédite

La Cour européenne des droits de l’homme a rejeté les requêtes de cinq Français, mais a fait droit à celle de Karim Touil, estimant qu’il n’avait pas été apporté de « justification objective et raisonnable » au choix de le contrôler.
