Mao Zedong was a dictator, Deng Xiaoping was a dictator, Zhu De was a dictator, Jiang Quing was a dictator, the guy running the CPC office was a dictator, so was the janitor. At least 6 million people in Beijing were dictators, all at the same time.

Like GM, Tesla now also uses wireless communication inside the pack to eliminate BMS harnesses.

Side story: when Elvira saw Khashoggi’s hog & he then tried to recruit her with Chandraswami:
Was Epstein more than just a “financial bounty hunter” for Khashoggi in the mid 1980s? In the QTed email, Epstein tells Bannon he was “with (Ziarean dictator) Mobutu” in the mid-80s; in the latter part of 1985, Mobutu joined Khashoggi’s traveling entourage. Coincidence? I’m thinking probably not. Mobutu and Khashoggi shared a Hindi-speaking Tantrik guru named Chandraswami who was also a Contras money conduit. This guy ministered to a host of other Contragate & Safari Club slush fund figures: the Sultan of Brunei, Tiny Rowland, Hosni Mubarak (VP for Sadat during Egypt’s Safari Club membership), Margaret Thatcher, met Manucher Ghorbanifar, etc. Chandraswami apparently was also involved in the Canadian “extortion attempt” of the CIA in ‘86 to try & recoup some Contragate monies for investors Miller & Fraser, who had also sunk cost into Khashoggi’s Triad American Corp. holding company, a gambit that AK honestly probably gamed out to try and buttress his expense-heavy confidence empire.

I live by one of the cuts in west oakland and they had a drone with a weird siren flying around. I never lost internet access either (sonic uses at&t), so this was a very specific attack.

Halsin was not one of my favorites in bg3, but I appreciate how he wasn’t afraid to ask for a 3 way with Shadowheart when certain death was right around the corner. Shoot your shot, king.

This is why Gaza is the valid litmus test. If you don’t understand the concept that a nation who oppresses others cannot itself be free, and Gaza is where that oppression is at its highest, then all of your subsequent decisions will be made on a flawed model.

This isn’t even including pwnescape, which means that your precious virtual machines, that you thought were a protection layer against this sort of vulnerability, have had a gaping hole into the host for god knows how long
So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

that linode instance you’re running a wireguard relay on, because it’s the only affordable option out there, has been potentially giving up the keys to the kingdom just because someone else was running wordpress.

I hear that Trump is in conversation with Putin and Xi Jinping. I wonder what about? A concerted cyber attack on Election Day by Russia and/or China would be easy to arrange. We have seen some small test runs on hospitals, etc.

Got told that analyzing art is just as important as analyzing the material conditions of world. Stalin please save me from this idealism.

Maybe that’s a sign you’re not cut out to be a landlord and should go get a real job instead. Someone more qualified should be able to figure it out.

If you can only collect $672 a month on an apartment that needs $100k in repairs, how are you supposed to get the money to make said repairs? Doesn't it make more sense just to leave the apartment vacant at that point?

I’m anti-mamdani simply on the basis that he has zero clue how to wield power in the first place. If you haven’t replaced every position with a loyalist, you’re just a placeholder for the next person who will.

Name one movie scene you’re so glad you got to experience on the big screen. The kind of moment that hits completely differently in a packed theater and stays with you long after you leave.

Why stop there? Maybe the mayor and the governor should be fired? This happened under their watch!
