Today it was announced that Yahoo! Groups is shutting down, and taking with it a piece of critical national infrastructure: the Oftel Yahoo Group which is used for managing UK phone number assignments.

Yes, really: See Ofcom's website https://ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/

Could anyone not too far from Gatwick host me overnight?

I'm currently stranded because of an airport-wide outage and sleazyJet refuses to deal with anything (even though they are legally required to)

@Gargron Depends what you mean by that.

Mesh nets can be really good around city-scale (provided some planning and backbone and fu). Doing an actual mesh straight across the US, though, is very unrealistic (if only because your routing protocol will likely do a barf)

There /are/ wireless networks covering that kind of distances, but they are usually a bunch of repeaters between 2 locations of interest.

@djsundog I'm also pretty happy to answer questions about wireless meshes and DIYISPs

@staticsafe
We have:
- Infineon fuchs up RSA key generation, impacting vastly many TPMs, smartcards and other HSMs.
- Oops, WPA2 is broken; your APs have security support, right?
- Linux kernel privilege elevation in ALSA.

I can't wait to see what the rest of the week brings us. :3
