Well, of course they are, but so is just about everything

Great thumbnail!

Dunno (or care!) about the rest of it. Kinda strange content for the technology community…

Far out, that’s poignant. 45m and relating hard

In fairness, I’m working quite hard and fantasising about being able to ‘check out’, so my scenario is more one of burnout rather than ‘not ignited’

Holy crap - get to the point!

This is a great idea at first glance - I’ve certainly had a few usb sticks come apart on removal

Then this sounds like fantastic progress!

How closely tied are the banks and the CCP, though?

Yeah, housing is fucked. We have ignored any infrastructure investment in …40 years?

Education is fucked

Health is fucked

Tourism got fucked by COVID

That pretty much leaves farmers and tenants

That’s some bob cringely like dissection - love it!

This is exactly the sentiment. Kick them out and never buy for them again - leeching cunts!

That’s pretty much it: a public distraction while they privately murder.

Extremism is a cancer. Until the extremists are maligned I can’t see anything meaningful happening. Fortunately there are some signs that people are sick of the status quo

Good point - it guess it could have easily fallen out while being edited, too

The start(-up?)[sic] generates up to $2 billion annually from ChatGPT and an additional $ 1 billion from LLM access fees, translating to an approximate total revenue of between $3.5 billion and $4.5 billion annually.

I hope their reporting is better then their math…

Yeah, there’s some limits to what they could do while maintaining pace for the 0 day stuff…

Some input validations would be the most basic things they should have done years ago. I’m aware of the hashing mature vendors do of any content they download for updates or deployments. Signature checking as well, and that’s before the code is even inspected - why don’t they include their automated tests they obviously aren’t using in the update as a sanity check client-side? (I’m not aware of anyone doing this or even if it’s possible without the rest of the IDE, stack, I’m no dev)

…sorta. The complexity here is their driver is signed, but it’s also loading code from their channel file (that was all zeroed out), and it seems the necessary error checking wasn’t implemented.

I haven’t yet got to the root cause they published, this is just what I gathered from the video of a retired MS kernel dev who posts stuff.

Obviously with their design it allowed them to be flexible at the cost of playing with fire - I’m impressed they got away with it for so long, really

Bummer. It refers to this old SA gem:

Saudi Arabia Threatened to Sell Off Europe’s Bonds If EU Seized Russian Assets – Bloomberg

Riyadh denied the Bloomberg report, saying it did not threaten to sell euro and French bonds as a way to influence the G7 into not seizing $280 billion of Russia’s frozen assets.

I guess Saudi Arabia and Russia are still tight

This appears to be done by civilians remaining in occupied territory

go workers!

As if Samsung needed more money, FFS

I guess it indicates how much heavy conditioning Putin has going on - that the others are indoctrinated into dehumanising them so completely…

Just a thought, don’t read too much into it

You could be a newsreader, that was great!
