It’s the Data Science craze all over again. Hope we’re done with this soon.

Same. I use it on desktop too

Tor itself was not breached. Rather, the suspects were using an outdated, long-retired app that did not employ some of the protections that are now available, and this, in turn, allowed investigators to carry out the attack.

Als jemand der jahrelang über einer Familie mit 2 Kettenrauchern gewohnt hat, und dessen Balkon bzw. alle Fenster auf der selben Seite wie der Balkon unbenutzbar waren: bitte, bitte strengere Maßnahmen gegen Raucher.

I said it before and I’ll say it again: we need to work harder so that this asshole can buy his 2nd yacht. Have some compassion.

Hard drives (SSDs, etc) are not the only durable storage that can be written to

I am outraged, a plea deal to avoid life imprisonment? What the fuck did I just read?!

This guy trafficked, raped and tortured her, and other underage women. Police did jack shit. And she was supposed to be watching him just walk away? Grotesque.

Best of luck everyone!

I would love to win one of the keys for the Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Yes, I have been eyeing a soft switch into cybersecurity. Maybe not head-over-heels and maybe not entirely, but I do plan to have a significant part of my work to be in infosec.

For context, I am currently working as Tech Lead/Software Architect for a company that has a security-focused product (with an, as of today, 0 incident track record), but I work on design and scalability most days. When involved in security-related tasks, I mostly coordinate and sometimes implement security critical code under the guidance of our (small) security team.

I do have enough insight to have a positive impact on security related discussions on higher levels (think “lol, this proposed change opens up the endpoint to being exploited by x or y”) but not enough to discuss our cryptographic primitives.

In order to get my feet wet, I started doing THM (quite actively, yet I’ve hit a rut with the Windows-focused buffer overflow rooms), and I can say I enjoy it more than I expected.

However, I am unsure what concrete steps I should take after THM.

I’ve been thinking of working towards the OSCP exam, but honestly the certification landscape is quite confusing.

I moonlight in a bike shop and mainly repair electric scooters and bikes.

Instead of adding even more shit that can break, I wish they would engineer their scooters into being more reliable.

In addition to breaking often, finding spare parts is a nightmare. Vendors completely ignoring requests.

Granted, Segway is one of the better ones.

Or how to fix your printer.

Doesn’t excuse violence

I am a happy backblaze user and generally I’ve only heard good things about them.

They do have multiple data centers and they are operating B2B products too.

Is there anything in particular that would make you think they could be unreliable?

Administrative access, in many cases, allows malicious apps to read and/or modify data, even memory and executables, of other apps. This is pretty much impossible with non-rooted phones out of the box. While the root detection feature is somewhat annoying, it is absolutely not a stupid measure.

Lieber Verfassungsschutz: die AfD arbeitet mit einem Regime zusammen welches es sich als explizites geopolitisches Ziel gesetzt hat, Europa zu destabilisieren.

Wann wird die AfD endlich verboten und wann werden die Kollaborateure verhaftet?
