Public key transition statement

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

So, I've generated a new GPG keypair. It has a set of subkeys (one per usage),
which, theoretically, should make it all more convenient and secure. Also it
uses currently-recommended algorithms (4096-bit key RSA and SHA512) and was
generated using my new hardware entropy source which was the main reason for
this change. The old key will be expired in a couple months unless I revoke it
as superseded first. There is no reason to believe it was compromised or
anything.

New key's fingerprint is

F819 3F12 6021 6B7D D53B  959F E273 25A3 92D7 0FFB

for copying and pasting: 0xF8193F1260216B7DD53B959FE27325A392D70FFB ),
long key id is 0xE27325A392D70FFB.

Please import my new public key from the keyserver you prefer or using PKA dns
records. You can use this command on most platforms:

    gpg --search-keys 0xE27325A392D70FFB

(Unfortunately, GnuPG or/and keyservers don't really support search by
fingerprint or showing it in the import dialog so make sure to --list-keys
later to verify it).

I'd appreciate if you signed this new key for the web of trust (revokable with
check level 2 sounds appropriate since you didn't verify my government-issued
photo ID prior to signing :) unless you happen to know me personally and can,
for example, call me and verify my voice while I'm reading the fingerprint).

Obviously, verifying signature on this message, old key's signature on the new
one, and checking PKA dns record is highly recommended before performing any
further steps. Feel free to contact me if you have any doubts.

What this all means to you personally? Probably nothing if you have never sent
me any encrypted messages or received signed ones. Otherwise you probably
already know what to do with this information.

Using virtualenv for more than Python projects

Sorry, it's not a complete instruction, just a thought. It occurred to me (some time ago) that Python's virtualenv is, essentially, a simplified version of system "prefix", it has bin, lib, include, and can have more stuff when needed. If you're willing to experiment (you'll probably have to set a few additional environment variables and/or build flags but that's no big deal), you can install various other tools there up until you have a complete system with its own compiler and complete set of libraries although it's much simpler to keep using system compiler and libraries only complimenting them when needed. Granted, prefixes are nothing new, people were using /opt (and their home directory) this way since the beginning of time. But with little help of virtualenv-wrapper or pyenv you can easily switch between them and isolate environments better. Binaries and stuff installed in virtualenv would override system defaults but only when venv is activat

Huawei TalkBand B3 (active) review

Despite the fact that no manufacturer ever sent me any free gadget for review, I'm continuing doing it. Maybe I'll become a popular reviewer and they will change their mind. This post will be the first in this year's wearable gadget reviews. To put it into perspective for those who don't know me, I'm not a fitness person, like at all. I eat healthy, I walk kinda a lot, I do some aerobics and occasional cardio but that's it. I'm too lazy even for jogging. But, for some reason, I currently have not one, not too, but three fitness trackers on my wrists. Yeah, crazy, I know, but that was the only way to compare them properly. By the way, wearing TalkBand on the same wrist with anything else is super inconvenient, you can hardly take it out for calls. But more on that later. Why do I need any fitness tracker? Apart from knowing time, I like to know how active I'm during the day, and, more importantly, track my sleep. I have some issues in that department so

ORICO — small things that stand out

More than once I've written about stuff made by Big Brand manufacturers so I decided to balance things out by writing about a mostly-unknown but good things. In short, if you need something small like HDD enclosure or some cable or USB hub or a dongle of some kind, check if ORICO makes it and chances are you won't be disappointed. It's usually slightly more expensive than low-end stuff from aliexpress but, in my opinion, it's usually worth it. Disclaimer. This post is a shameless promotion of their brand although, unfortunately, nobody paid me for it or even sent me any free stuff. Guys from ORICO and not, if you read this, I'll gladly review whatever free goodies you send me :) I only do honest reviews so better make sure to send the good stuff. At this point I own a USB hub, three different 2.5" HDD enclosures, and a precision screwdriver set from them. And probably something else I don't remember. Here are the pics: USB hub in its natural habitat
