That's because React2Shell *is* the exploit. That's what it's called. It's exploiting something called "React", which as near as I can tell is some sort of web server thing.

Yeah when I added a device to my plan and signed a contract, I guess, they were giving a $10 discount per line for auto pay. That somehow had gone down to $5 since then. Seems like that would be a change of terms of an agreement, though I didn't read the fine print to figure out if that's the case. Either case, very sleazy, and up to me to take my chances with cell service from a discount carrier.

The Sam Altman types, and the Thiel/Musk types especially, want technofeudalism with them on top. For some of them the "good of society" factors in but it is always after this.

Or are Slashdot stories becoming just one marketing release after another? I mean, it's been a problem for some time, but now it's just getting ridiculous.

But then natural selection might have caused some or all of the 1 to 3 offspring to die, thereby not have their own offspring to carrying on the defect.

Except "everything you can screen for" in 2005 is much more limited than 2025, which itself is much more limited than in 2045. The point is that you're concentrating a potential genetic defect and applying it to hundreds or thousands of offspring, rather than 1 or 3, as is most typical.

OMG!

As the saying goes, the defender has to get it right every time, but the attacker only has to get it right once. AI is good at getting something impressive sometimes, not so good at always getting it right.

Yep. Although some Nazis saw Fraktur as an expression of German "kultur", Hitler always personally disliked it. What really pushed it over the edge was the conclusion that it made communicating to populations in the occupied territories more difficult.

...they gotta use Papyrus! "So classy."

Xbox has always been weak, and likely has never been profitable, and hardware has never really been Microsoft's thing. Xbox getting only 10% market share, however, is new territory. This may be leading to more pain than Microsoft is willing to take. Back in the Genesis days, would you have thought that Sega would ever walk away from consoles?

People who can't do simple arithmetic are so fun.

If you haven't worked it out, doubling your net worth every day for a month means you end the month with one billion times what you started with.

Multiply that by two million...
