Does any one have a #BGP MRT dump with Geo-Location Extensions enabled (RFC 6397)? I'd like to test my implementation against some real tables, but couldn't find any so far.

Good thread about how ChatGPT is *not* a useful disability aid, which dovetails nicely with the reporting about how AI lowers productivity when it's forced into people's workflows

Holy shit. This guy saved a PNG to a bird.

I wrote a new new Policy Proposal: "Revocation of Persistently Non-functional Delegated RPKI CAs"

Policy proposal itself: www.ripe.net/community/po...

Consider chiming in!
Revocation of Persistently Non-functional Delegated RPKI CAs
This proposal suggests providing a mandate to the RIPE NCC to revoke resource certificates associated with longtime non-functional CAs to reduce Relying Party workloads.

So that's what Big Balls did with the terabytes of data he stole from the National Labor Relations Board a few weeks ago.
On Friday ICE agents stopped a bus in Albion, NY. They had a list of names, and took 14 people into custody

Those workers—and their employer—happened to be involved in one of the most crucial labor struggles in the state in recent memory
