@warandpeas This is dark even by my standards! (love it)

@sassdawe What pisses me off is the bloody "reasoning" they provide, but it actually is a copy-paste saying nothing. This tells me the story of "Here's 10k of our customers, and now we will _pretend_ we care about them enough to write 5 sentences to a web page." #LEGO

@rodneylives We're on the WW fucking W, and this is a screenshot from X(?) that I got on Signal. Just go nuts with it!

Jeez this blew up! If you are reading this:

Learn how things work and write it down. We're accelerating to stupid.

This is beautiful. I've been looking at this for 5 hours now.

LEGO turned down the Turing Machine model idea :(

absolutely losing it. My mom received a spam call that got picked up by Google call screening on her phone, and it ended up responding with one of the more unhinged Asterisk voice recordings before hanging up LMAO

Analyzing CVE-2025-2296 [Un-verified #kernel bypass #SecureBoot mechanism in direct boot mode]

https://www.kraxel.org/blog/2025/12/analyzing-cve-2025-2296/

Gerd Hoffmann aka kraxel writes: ""[…] So, if secure boot is enabled attempts to boot via 'EFI stub' will fail, the firmware rejects the binary due to the signature check failing. OVMF will fallback to the legacy 'EFI handover protocol' loader. The legacy loader does not do secure boot verification, which is the core of CVE-2025-2296. And this was essentially unfixable (in the firmware alone) because there simply is no valid secure boot signature due to the patching qemu is doing. Nevertheless there are some use cases which expect direct kernel boot with secure boot enabled to work. Catch 22. […]

Secure boot bypass sounds scary, but is it really? […] So, the actual impact is quite limited. […]""

@wolfnowl This is the only thing protecting human civilization from kneeling to super intelligent chicken overlords!

I'm a huge fan of writing and trying to type on a fucking TV remote got me thinking how much touch-screen keyboards may constrain our thinking...

Turns out your outsourced dev team vibe-coded the encryption routine of your #ransomware.

Weird #DIY question:

I'd like to have easy to switch paper disks on an axis. An "obvious" solution would be to cut pices of a spiral where the beginning and the end just overlap, so they only get off when turned to the direction of the axis.

But how do I cut/produce such pieces so that they remain flat when on the axis?!

Decomp2dbg:

"decomp2dbg aims to shorten the gap of context switching between decompiler and debugger by introducing a generic API for decompiler-to-debugger symbol syncing."
