These days it's more economical to sacrifice incels.

A brown nose?

Here's the problem, and why everyone resents this crap (your fellow IT folks most of all)...

Yeah, great, you're an Exchange admin and can send email "from" any random VP you want. And you have access to their recent document history so can "spice it up" by referencing actual projects we might really be assigned to. When your phishing tests are literally indistinguishable from legitimate emails, you're not "testing" anything, you're daring people to ignore legitimate work at risk of their continued employment.

If "my boss" sends me an email, which the headers show really came from his account, and asks me to take a look at a spreadsheet we worked on three days ago - You're not being clever, you're an asshole.

Yeah, and Trump is promising to wrap up the war immediately after the upcoming elections.

I've always been a big fan of space exploration, but for a country that can't afford its lifestyle a moon base doesn't sound very important priority.

(Or maybe I should have said "isn't willing to pay for" its lifestyle.)

My cranky post was about a Samsung. I didn't mention the brand because I assumed their all that way.

I bought my first-ever "smart" TV this year, and the interface is horrible. The hardware is fine, but everything else is designed for people pushing stuff, rather than for a user.

1) Comcast could have started moving to fiber a decade before the upstarts and qualified for the same subisidies.
2) Comcast has received 2.6B in subsidies since 1987.
3) Remind us again, how long as Biden been out of office now?

Tovarishch, your sons are dying, cold, alone, in a Ukranian ditch; just waiting for one of the many overhead drones to notice them and blow off their manhood while they bleed out. And for what? So the ex-KGB gangster in Moscow can fantasize about reuniting a mythical Historical Russian Empire that never existed and never will?

Go home to the family farm and enjoy a peaceful life. There's no glory for you in Ukraine.

I thought the Yandex attacks had shut down all the russian bots.

Then FISA could give Putin a peace prize!

I'm curious where exactly he gets that $1500 figure from. When Spectrum installed my fiber, it was half an hour's labor for a lineman, 150m of such crappy fiber I wouldn't use it as a patch cable inside my house, a 4-port 1Gbit EPON, a mid-range pre-compromised bandwidth-stealing router I threw back in the box the second the tech left (if I don't have the real admin password, it's not going on my network!). That's it. Even at massively inflated replacement prices for captive customers, that's $600 total at most (and realistically more like half that).

Pssst, Jason - You need to realize the fictional numbers you use to justify rate increases to state PUCs are just that, fiction; and your competitors are eating your lunch precisely because you don't understand the difference. One year of "subsidizing" the installation on a two year contract is still net profitable! But then, they say to never correct your enemy when they're making a mistake, and I could not be happier to have escaped Comcast's footprint years ago. You go right ahead and pretend everyone else in the market is selling at a loss. Meanwhile, they're doing just fine, I don't need to deal with Comcast, and you won't be missed.

The preliminary results that previously sent their stock soaring "only" showed a 49% reduction. 42% over a much larger population still ain't bad!

I'm honestly stumped why the market reacted as badly as it did to this news - That's still a 100% viable product, and it targets people desperate for any reduction in recurrence! Exactly 0 people will turn down 42% who would have been thrilled with 49%.

Why does using a browser depend on an "account"? And why is an already-installed application (not tied to a single service provider) going to stop working ever? I might not have a very good time with it, but I could still run a 29 year old copy of NCSA Mosaic if I really wanted to.

Then again, both of those pretty much are the answers to my other top question, "what the hell are Arc and Dia, and why have I never heard of them": Proprietary garbage whose continued use depends on the Chief Sociopath having a good quarter. Nope, and good riddance!

This story really isn't about PHP. It's about AI easily finding multiple severity-9+ externally-exploitable server-side vulnerabilities without even breaking a sweat.

Over the next few months, this same story is going to repeat for Ruby, ASP, Python, Node (or JS in general), .Net, etc. And not all of them will be so easily fixed - Or for that matter, disclosed at all prior to a working exploit in the wild.

Running a public-facing webserver is about to become the losing side of an inevitable arms race.

LPT: Peacefully protesting is not illegal in the US. Guess who this will be primarily used against?

That said, this is the same LRAD system that the military unequivocally promised would never be used inside the US or against civilians. The same LRAD system that failed spectacularly when field-tested in Iraq against so-called "insurgents". It's trivially defeated by any amount of metal (e.g. tinfoil hats really do work against it), rain or even high humidity, plastic sheets more than a few mils thick, wet cloth - Basically anything except bone-dry thin woven fabric is substantially effective at blocking it.

So of course, they'll just crank up the power and actually cook innocent bystanders, but let's be honest, we all know they'll do that even if it worked spectacularly well, because cruelty is the point, and 11 is more cruel than 10.

The time has come when a full-body faraday cage is required gear for any serious protestor - So naturally, we should fully expect wearing anti-static clothing to a protest to become a felony as soon as police realize their intended victims aren't squirming in pain enough to sate their sadism.
