The new vulnerability, assigned CVE-2024-6387, allows for unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) with root privileges, posing a severe threat to affected systems.

Oh, fuck. Guess this is my day now.

Just put up a free charging station or an outlet with a USB port in a hotel and you got yourself free USB connections to phones.

I can never bring myself to connect to those things.

No clue what that means. I was thinking more along the lines of how there’s 3+ techniques for async functions. Or that there’s a handful of syntax implementations, versions, and supersets of the language. Or that there are many interpreters all with different standard libraries and quirks.

It’s an annoyingly flexible language.

Oh, and there’s at last 2 other ways to do it too.

I’m super curious what the public response will be if people die in a SpaceX launch. Will it get as much scrutiny as if it were the NASA shuttle?

I’m not informed enough to answer any of your questions about them. You should find a better source than my fuzzy memory. I just remember being warned about them since morel picking is fairly popular around where I live.

There are also mushrooms that look like morels that you shouldn’t eat. Somewhat easy to filter out if you know what you’re looking for but maybe wouldn’t say hard to fuck up.

Do you know if this is real time or time lapse?

Will check it out, thanks for the tip.

EDIT: It’s closed source, $4/license with a 7-day free trial.

I just wish you could setup logic for this. Pulling out your phone to hold the power button for 3 seconds and then tapping the lockdown button is slow, very obvious, and likely to be prevented by an attacker.

Would be great if I could set it up to lockdown on a specific finger, or a specific number of presses on an analog button. Or even like if I leave a WiFi network or some other arbitrary condition.

Love these paintings.

Man, must be rough to be an MS engineer and do work in public. Ignoring the financial aspect, can’t say I’ve never had a similar ticket and resolution.

“So far, almost all studies of gut neurotransmitters were conducted in adult animals or human subjects, where a specific gut cell type called enterochromaffin cells produce neurotransmitters,” said Dr. Zeng. “However, we discovered that this isn’t the case in the newborn gut where most of the serotonin is made by bacteria that are more abundant in the neonatal gut.”

Had no idea serotonin has other uses. Watch, the gut be responsible for modern wide spread depression.

That video is badass

Cake Pay is registered in St Kitts, for instance. But it doesn’t matter. Playing the ignorant middle man can get you legal for the most part.

And I guarantee you that their source of cards is not directly from the retailer.

But whatever. If you don’t want to believe me and just want to run with binders on for that sweet 30% off your Amazon purchase, that’s your business.

Being a “registered business” doesn’t mean anything. Especially when they’re in loose jurisdictions with little to no laws or enforcement. And it sure doesn’t mean they aren’t sketchy and the origin of the cards isn’t ethically dubious or even illegal.

You don’t ever wonder how they pay like 50% (or less) on the card’s face value and resell them at 70-80% for a profit?

I worked a bit on a competitor service and the brokers are all not people I ever want to interact with again. We tried to pierce the veil a little bit and the least sketchy source examples we got were like mechanical turk workers getting paid in gift cards (wage theft basically), and immigrants trying to send money back home to their family from the US (something crypto was supposed to help with).

And be sure that Visa and MasterCard are mining your data.

The whole gift card secondary market is sketchy as fuck though. I’ve dipped my foot in a bit and it seems like most of the inventory is the result of scammers converting their gains into usable currency.

Not all of it for sure. Sometimes people just want to unload gift cards they’ll never use. But that seems like the exception rather than the rule.

Like, why is this dude from Nigeria selling tens of thousands of dollars worth of US-locked gift cards?

Also, all these large companies and regulatory bodies are completely aware of this shit. I don’t know why it’s tolerated.

Firefox has been nice to work with on my end. And fast. Even the dev tools are way better than they were a decade ago. Almost all the important extensions work on it.

I don’t really understand how its market share is so low now.
