Hackers are now "security researchers", conmen are "social engineers", burglars are "pentesters" and now hitmen are "violence as a service enterpreneurs". Turns out organized just needed a hip new image!

The attack is essentially tricking the user to click on a .lnk file that opens powershell with the malicious code passed as a parameter. The parameter was invisible when the user opened the properties of the .lnk. Not sure how this could be fixed without breaking functionality. They fixed the bug that allowed hiding the parameter, but most people never check what a .lnk points to before clicking on it anyway so I don't think that helps much.

Once the definition have been stretched to the point that it could be used for completely disjoint sets of symptoms it became useless. "Autistic" is just the new "quirky".

Lionsgate distributes Hollywood blockbusters including The Hunger Games, John Wick, The Twilight Saga, and Saw franchises. But despite its huge catalog, it is simply not enough for the AI to produce quality content.

Garbage in, garbage out.

Offshore windmills aren't an issue, you can just load the blades on a ship.

Even better, you can use the turbine blades as the rotor of the helicopter!

This is literally a story about a new feature Mozilla developed.

I think much of it is hype. While these implants are sold as brain reading devices, but from what I can gather it's just as much your brain learning how to use the implant. I doubt you could use these on an unwilling participant.
