I don’t always meet with Dutch government ministers. But when I do, I am on #IRC. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ministerieez_disruptieve-innovaties-zijn-van-essentieel-activity-7406744049652760576-GgZ8

And to make matters worse I can’t even turn on the kind of cleaning I need. “Server error”

in a DELICIOUS twist, despite what the Miele instructions said, the app is not able to initiate the 'TwinDos' cleaning. HOWEVER! The app did contain a link to an actual PDF manual which tells me to press an invisible button, keep it pressed, and then close the machine door, to get to a "programming menu". And option P68 there set to '1' enables the cleaning program. Next up, how to disconnect the machine from the internet again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IV7hWqRr_FQ

Now, I've not yet been able to fully disable the WiFi module yet. But it now thinks it is 127.0.0.1, and not getting very far anymore:

13:25:39.098568 ARP, Request who-has 127.0.0.1 tell 127.0.0.1, length 46

@steter this is not the cleaning I am talking about.

Also this is some ESP8266 level performance! It's MAC address is registered to Miele, which is a nice touch.

The machine is "OFF" and it is STILL sending data to Microsoft Azure. You could not invent this world.

@janneke @DenOfEarth also there people need to feed their families.

@janneke @DenOfEarth people who need money to live.

Was forced to install the Miele app because it is the only way to tell the washing machine to clean itself. It asks you for permission to have third parties process and analyze your data no less than **8 times**. Ridiculous. I bet it will keep on asking until you give up. Also it is probably selling my data anyhow. Bah.

And yes, I personally know what to do to stop this. But it is not about me, it is about population level exploitation of data. Bah again.

My laptop's camera is so good I need to shave before doing video meetings. This is not the progress I was looking for!

So I'm like the world's worst stock picker. If I finally invest in something, it is sure to tank. For a moderate fee I'm willing to buy some $NVDA shares just to burst the AI bubble. Do let me know.

I've interpreted your likes and boosts as encouragement, and I now own a single NVIDIA share. Let the collapse commence!

@GossiTheDog yes, thank you! With a bit of a close read this is rather alarming if you see what they are reporting "progress" on...

I need some help. Some weeks ago, someone here mentioned a report on Microsoft Azure internal security practices, and that it was found these were very immature, with no network segmentation, badly enforced least privileges etc. But I can't find this report, does anyone recall it or have a link? Thanks!

Maybe @GossiTheDog knows? ^^^^ (thanks)

@AnachronistJohn @whitequark I send out 100k legit email messages/month or so, an they arrive at all major email players. I do not control the reverse DNS of my IP address, and other people who make rules force me to have my reverse and my HELO hostname to match.

@whitequark done

@whitequark you'd miss out on my email though, depending on your definition of "non-well-formed HELO messages'.
