🚨Secure Boot relies on revocation lists (dbx) to block malicious bootloaders, but discrepancies between the @uefiforum & @microsoft lists create security gaps.

👉Call for a single and openly maintained revocation list -- a unified source of truth!

@cryptax The calling convention defines how return value is set, so it may very well affect the decompilation afaik

@cryptax I guess that's the result of incorrectly identified calling convention? You can check/set with right click on func name -> Edit Function Signature

Stop saying “artificial intelligence”. (And “neural networks” too.)

Be more specific. Say “reinforcement learning”. Say “generative modelling”. Say “Bayesian filtering”. Say “statistical prediction”.

These are incredibly useful tools that have nothing to do with “intelligence”.

And say “model trained on plagiarised data”.

Say “bullshit generator”.

Say “internet regurgitator”.

These are also nothing to do with intelligence, but they have the added bonus of being useless, too.

Cygwin SSHd works of course, but I'll have to figure out project/workspace management for this to be actually useful...

The little devil (notice the vi reference) on my shoulder took over and made me connect #Emacs TRAMP to OpenSSH running on Windows.

Now Emacs is struggling really hard, spinning up the CPU fan 😆

This review is one reason why I write so many blog posts that simply restate what is obvious if you look really well. But it turns out that "seeing in front of one's nose requires a constant struggle". Orwell mentions in the review ^ that it is therefore the duty of "intelligent people" to restate the obvious.
