As with all things - the poison is in the dose (and delivery). It would depend how much fentanyl is added to how much candy, and how much candy the kid eats. Also how old and how large the kid is.

Nah, those get their own, unique set of security issues, discovered or otherwise. Hint: every firmware does.

kn33 ,

Nah, you're right. The speakers get hooked up with straight wire or maybe banana connectors.

Remember that "feeding 50 people once" is the same as feeding 10 people 5 times. With a large family, that could be as little as a week of food.

Linus Tech Tips (LTT) release investigation results on former accusations (x.com)

There were a series of accusations about our company last August from a former employee. Immediately following these accusations, LMG hired Roper Greyell - a large Vancouver-based law firm specializing in labor and employment law, to conduct a third-party investigation. Their website describes them as “one of the largest...

The thing is that it's the best they can do, which is about all we can ask for. No one is going to do a good job at the investigation for free.

I have my media on a disk separate from the rest of the VM. I set that disk to not be included in snapshots, then snapshot the VM before upgrades.

This has different meaning depending on if you read that as a statement or as a command.

They were when the name was made, but due to changes in the manufacturing process, they aren't anymore. The name stuck, though.

1 AP, but 8 different SSIDs. Don't forget to set the strengths on them so they show up in the right order.

Part of it is that Vine was a little too early. Phone screens were smaller, and people weren't used to watching videos on their phone as much as they do today.

After default password disclosed online, 1200 inmates have prison issued laptops seized by guards, threatening their ability to make class deadlines (www.opencampusmedia.org)

Zhang, an electrical engineer in Boston, decided to post about trying to unlock his Justice Tech Solutions Securebook 5 on the social platform X. The thread went viral — also catching the attention of Washington corrections officials, who have used the device for college programming since 2020....

kn33 ,

I hope they use unique, random passwords for each device this time. Not that I'm rooting for Corrections, but this is educational time that's being lost

kn33 ,

I'm thinking they used the same BIOS password for all of them.

The easiest way to avoid being accused of dog whistling it is to just whistle it.

It evacuates the waste before it's waste

What about a torrent? You'll have to encrypt with 7zip or something to keep it secure, but that and qbitorrent will do the trick.

kn33 ,

Idk but I wouldn't risk it when it's easy to encrypt stuff. Good security is done in layers.

I explained this in another thread. They're ending sale of perpetual license. They're not breaking ones they've already sold. That being said, eventually the version that perpetual licenses were sold for will stop getting updates and they'll become a security risk. That was always the lifecycle for perpetual licenses, though.

kn33 ,

They're terminating in the sense that they won't sell it anymore. They're not breaking the licensing they've already sold (mostly, there was some fuckery with activating licensing they sold through third parties)

kn33 ,

You won't be able to upgrade to new versions when the support contract runs out, but you can install updates to the existing version as long as updates are made for it. This has always been the lifecycle for perpetual licensing. It's good forever, but at a certain point it becomes a security risk to continue using. The difference here is they won't sell you another perpetual license when the lifecycle is up.

No, 3 million electric toothbrushes were not used in a DDoS attack (www.bleepingcomputer.com)

No, 3 million electric toothbrushes were not used in a DDoS attack::A widely reported story that 3 million electric toothbrushes were hacked with malware to conduct distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks is likely a hypothetical scenario instead of an actual attack.

kn33 ,

Are you talking about electric toothbrushes in general? Because I'm pretty sure they're regarded as more effective than manual toothbrushes

kn33 ,

And what is this shit system made out of?

kn33 ,

Then you haven't been paying attention

Couple suing Google Maps after it sent them to a notorious crime hotspot where they were brutally attacked and robbed at gunpoint (www.the-express.com)

Couple suing Google Maps after it sent them to a notorious crime hotspot where they were brutally attacked and robbed at gunpoint::A Los Angeles couple filed a lawsuit against Google Maps for allegedly navigating them to a notorious South African crime neighborhood where tourists are left 'injured, maimed or dead.'

kn33 ,

They didn't ask to go to the dangerous place, they asked for the airport and Maps took them through the dangerous place.

kn33 ,

Even better: keep your shit up to date regardless of what you use

They can still (mostly) sniff SNI for now which gives them a domain even when the IP isn't unique.

Microsoft is getting rid of WordPad after 28 years – the veteran editor has been present in the OS since Windows 95 (gadgettendency.com)

Microsoft is getting rid of WordPad after 28 years – the veteran editor has been present in the OS since Windows 95::Microsoft has begun getting rid of another veteran application in its proprietary operating system. The company has released a new test build of Windows 11

kn33 ,

That doesn't incorporate the hassle factor. Even if you can, it's a lot more hassle

kn33 ,

Everyone's missing the real issue. Springs, motors, or pneumatics don't matter if there's something in the way preventing it from closing. A cheap fridge on an uneven floor will close the door itself if there's nothing in the way, but if the jug of milk is hanging off the edge of the shelf with no room behind it, the door isn't closing without something getting damaged.

When you're actually using the app instead of having the compression artifacts of being screenshot several times, it's not as bad.
