Sometimes it's hard to focus. I started thinking it would be a nice idea to make a zine of sorts. Then I had the idea of making it in troff, just because I can, and started looking at what else I've done in troff over the years...

I found an almost finished article about opportunistic encryption with IPsec that I apparently had abandoned, complete with some pic diagrams and everything. I did use the same diagrams in a talk, so all is not lost, but damn, that's frustrating. I started editing the article to make it in a publishable state but realized there would be quite some work needed.

Here is the project web page:

Which then led to another project, IPsec with anonymous keys, an implementation of Better-than-nothing Security (BTNS):

In other news I had a look at the possible new office. Standing by what's probably going to be my desk it looks like this:

Part film studio, part office. A very open space. Might work, but with head phones on some of the time, I guess, not to be disturbed and hopefully not disturbing the film crew. The building is from 1939 with original windows and no AC. Probably a bit cold in the winter and a bit hot in the summer.

Didn't go to the 2600 meeting. I went to the gym with L instead, which was nice and my back probably needs it. I have been having pangs of my old back ache that has been gone for years.

Read about Turkey being on the verge to attack Rojava again. Felt rather upset. And this at the time when Turkey is blocking the Swedish NATO membership because of the Swedish support for Rojava. Dammit.

Just started watching a TV series which I think is going in the poly direction... "Allt som blir kvar". Interesting. Here on SVT, viewable from all over the world but, well, in Swedish:

Listened to a documentary podcast about the atomic bomb tonight. Nothing new, really, but not feeling to good now.
