272902 – Security: allow passphrases for WPA-EAP to be saved without using clear text
NEW: Roger Shoffstall spent three years in prison for evading income taxes.
It hasn’t stopped the FCC from sending him $1 million a year to sell obsolete internet service in Alaska.
The money comes from a special government subsidy program. You help pay for it.

NEW: On Alaska’s Adak Island, it costs more than $340,000 per year to provide hundreds of buildings — all but a few of them empty — with internet access no one uses.
The money being wasted is yours.

And.. first version of Bubble Share 🫧 is published!!
It is an app to share files and clipboard to devices nearby you.
It is an AirDrop /Nearby Share alternative.
Unlike other solutions, it works without sharing the same network, and you don't have a QR code to scan. It is made as simple as possible
And we will hopefully have iOS support in the future. Having Linux and other systems would be great too - your help is welcome!
