Intel, Meltdown and Insider Trading?
January 4th, 2018
If you read the Acknowledgements of the meltdown paper found at the meltdown and spectre website, it is said that Jann Horn informed Intel of the
bug in June of 2017. In late November of 2017 the CEO of Intel sold all his
stocks, which to me is highly suspect of insider trading... (Intel Inside?).
The story about the selling of the stocks (worth 11 million $) is here. I don't know if this is good on Intels part. I'm very mad that we've
been ripped off since 1995! So my 486 DX/2 was likely already vulnerable.

Delphinusdnsd 1.2.1 Released
January 1st, 2018
This is a small bugfix to allow delphinusdnsd to start up after signing the
zone with a 4096 bit key. I haven't tried any higher, I have a few unsigned
zones still and will be able to use them for testing....eventually. Didn't
think I'd have a minor release this quickly after the 1.2.0 release. The
download is here.

Digitally signed two domains
January 1st, 2018
I have signed two domains, freifunk-schweinfurt.de and delphinusdns.org for
DNSSEC. The signing of the 4096 bit keylength RSA-512 went eventless. However
the delphinusdnsd server did not want to load those zones due to the increased
length of the signed text. I finally found the bug and will be making a
correction to delphinusdnsd later. I will probably release 1.2.1 in the next
few days.

10 USD/year per domain on average
January 1st, 2018
This morning I renewed and paid for 8 domains of mine, around 160 USD. I have
enabled privacy options as well. Interesting is that the lions share went
into the .net and .org domains (around 90 USD for those two). Somehow it seems
the .de domains that I have are really cheap. I renewed for two years.
Next is DNSSEC'ing more domains and looking at letsencrypt for centroid.eu.

Delphinusdnsd 1.2.0
December 28th, 2017
A few hours ago I released delphinusdnsd 1.2.0. The development for that
release cycle took 11 months. Here a snippet from the CHANGES file in the
source:
Changes in RELEASE_1_2 from RELEASE_1_1
- remove SPF support (deprecated RFC 7208 section 3.1)
- add TLSA anyreply support (affects AXFR)
- change BerkeleyDB to tree(3) RB_* macros (faster?)
- fix EDNS compliancy: https://ednscomp.isc.org/ednscomp/5a70566c18
- fix truncation code and give empty answers with TC bit set when appropriate
- fix CNAME's with DNSSEC
- fix PTR's with DNSSEC
- move to imsg functions with privsep for IPC messaging
- OpenBSD delphinusdnsd is pledged
I would like to thank everyone and everything that supported me writing on
this DNS server. It is my heart and soul. It also keeps me out of trouble,
I hope. I started writing on Delphinusdnsd in 2005. This is its thirteenth
year. You can grab the download
here. Thanks!

What I got for Christmas
December 26th, 2017
I got a book called "Das Erwachen" by Andreas Brandhorst. It is about an AI
awakening I guess, and at the same time it's dawning on humans that it's a
trap. I read 80 pages so far since Christmas Eve. Should be interesting.
I'm not sure if I like it or dislike it... funny would be if it was written
by an AI.

December 25th, 2017
Just a little something for Christmas, it's not the world, but can help.
F3 Netze is an organisation that evolved out of Freifunk Franken in order
to provide free infrastructure to the region where I live.
