I finally did a thing and put some #YARA rules in a public GitHub repository now that some of the ransomware I looked at is no longer relevant. Hope to do more and add an eventual analysis repo one day as well. Check it out! github.com/FirehaK/YARA

We've preserved (yet another) lot of eleven test cartridges for the Nintendo DS, DSi, and 3DS! Included are some never-before-seen pieces of test software, as well as new versions of previously discovered ones! Thanks to those who contributed: March42, Kc57, Haifisch, and XX_75.

Wish I knew why my @analogue pocket order has been "processing" at the fullment partner for more than a month now while others who have ordered at the exact same time have gotten theirs a while ago now 😔

Main concern w/ the new Twitter Blue offering is the verified logo has been a marker of trust I.e., “we’ve confirmed the person is who they say they are.” Now it’s “we’re taking their $ & their word for it.” On the cusp of election where source of info is critical, a major risk.
To think that simple payment verifying will pose any sort of meaningful barrier to sophisticated actors on the platform is just not anchored in reality. Agree w/ @ianbremmer

russian govt buying a few thousand verified twitter accounts at $8/pop to promote disinfo feels like a no-brainer.

Thanks Pokémon Red and @_Kc57 😉
Video games are a gateway drug to hacking, reverse engineering, and malware development

Okay, so a few people have asked how you spot the where your Trust Thermocline is, and how to avoid hitting it. I'll give you the same answer I give senior execs: I don't know. But the people working on the ground level in the customer-facing sections of your company do. /1
Replying to @garius
There's a large and obvious risk Elon will screw up and wreck twitter. But how actionable is this information in general? If the tipping point isn't obvious and there are few signs of trouble before reaching it, how can companies avoid it?

One of the things I occasionally get paid to do by companies/execs is to tell them why everything seemed to SUDDENLY go wrong, and subs/readers dropped like a stone. So, with everything going on at Twitter rn, time for a thread about the Trust Thermocline /1
