shameless

I kind of think it’s just reputational hangover. Everyone remembers how bad Windows Vista was because Windows XP had been so great, however Microsoft came along with Windows 7 and improved the windows reputation. In the Linux world people aren’t really doing big promos which garner a lot of media attention regarding new kernel versions or new DE’s. Ubuntu is really the closest this ever comes but I’m sure if there was someone being a bit more like “Arch 2028! Our most stable version yet!” and hyped it all up and did a bunch of promos the reputation would shift more.

I don’t think I had a linux distro break audio/video/network after an update in 10+ years. Maybe I’ve just been lucky? That said I’ve had countless issues with work machines after Microsoft updates

Thanks! Looks as though I also had the same. I’ve only been able to disable it for now

“The plane has landed Chat, now what should I do?”

So there is no option without just buying a new handset? Obviously I’ll just have to use the adb way to get my apps until I can buy a different handset I guess

As someone with a phone which is not supported by non-android projects. What is the alternative here?

As long as it merges it’s fiiiine!

Because they know they have such a chokehold on the market. I remember back in the XP days it felt like every year there was a new top tier security product that people were trying.

AI is still shit when it comes to obfuscated code. This is before it’s all been obfuscated and become unreadable.

I’ve tried using AI to handle obfuscated scripts and it makes way too many assumptions as to what the code is trying to achieve.

Would anyone still love me if I was a 41,700 y/o worm? 🥺

100% men have denied men from having cute outfits for too long! Be the change you want to see in the world

This will almost certainly be a false positive, its a heuristics(I think that’s the correct term) based detection, basically just matches certain characteristics of files that have been related to that trojan.

These days Defender has exceptional real time malware scanning capabilities, it often picks up stuff as you download it or even as it executes. If this was a detection of an existing file, its very likely a false positive.

Just reading the intro pulls you in

We draw a distinction between two sorts of bullshit, which we call ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ bullshit

I’m trying to learn rust and so far this has definitely made it so much more accessible.

Not to mention their super useful “rustlings” training which has these nice little challenges to get you used to language and syntax

I’m also not a fan of MS spyware.

But in defence of the MS authenticator, the 2FA prompts it sends are very convenient, how they pop up and ask for the number displayed on screen, its definitely more secure than just the one time code.

Plus it also shows what phone the user is using when they install and configure the authenticator app, this is also very useful if you suddenly see the user accessing their mail or one drive from another mobile device.

Given the times I’ve seen news articles and screenshots of poorly vetted published journals. Surely a free open source publisher managed by the academic community can’t be much worse? I also don’t know shit about the requirements to actually publish so this is probably a naive take

That last sentence 🤮
