The best way to think of SLS is as a balding guy with a mullet: there are fireworks down below that are meant to distract you from a sad situation up top.

For eight minutes SLS roars into the sky on a pillar of fire. And then, like a cork popping out of a bottle, the tiny ICPS emerges and drifts vaguely moonwards on a wisp of flame.

[It is] a first in space flight, [a] rocket that is at the same time more powerful and less capable than the Saturn V.

damnit apple

i'm experimenting with getting my ssh passphrase out of the macOS keychain using Rust

i did some hacking around with the security_framework crate https://docs.rs/security-framework/ so i can get a debug printout of the query and to add a feature

so the query matches the one used by apple's hacked ssh to get the passphrase

GUESS WHAT

Error: Error { code: -34018, message: "A required entitlement isn't present." }
