  rootless podman ftw.

  An outright ban would at least make the lazy fucks try harder. That’s still a win in my book.

  Can their first order of business be to have everyone kick Andy Yen in the balls repeatedly until he quits with no severance?

  Never said it cannot be useful, just unnecessary.

  Sounds like you already know how those sobs will respond. Pun intended.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Supermarket Freezers Across Europe Hit With Another Cyberattack⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Being connected through a portal is still connected to the internet.

  It still explains nothing about why is it remotely necessary? A freezer and fridge do not need frequent adjustment. Their ‘monitoring’ can be done by extremely simple thermal regulation systems that have existed for decades upon decades. It’s not necessary what so ever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Supermarket Freezers Across Europe Hit With Another Cyberattack⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Really begs the question… Why are they connected to the internet at all??

  Excellent way to get the datacenters onto a valid military target list. Good job, Putin!

  Minus all of the news about anti-LGBTQ+ pressure placed everywhere, maybe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"We are more concerned about the risks of moving too slowly": Epic get more specific about genAI use in Unreal Engine and Fortnite development⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Corporation that has defined the cutting edge for decades fails to understand their position! More at 11!

  … Seriously, FUCK this modern rendition of “executive”, that quite literally does not understand the thing over which they have control.

  Capitalism is cancer, and any moron willing to debate me on this has an ever insurmountable amount of history to explain.

  The PHP vulnerabilities (yes there is more than one) are relatively easy to exploit if you can fiddle with what requests your server receives (easy).

  The DNS exploit requires someone to figure out how to man-in-the-middle your connection. While that is trivial for governments, it is much less likely to be done by purely bad actors, simply for how visible the problem is.

  Both are big problems, but only one of them is continually exploitable, as the DNS issues have been largely resolved even before the very public disclosure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘This Is Not a Drill’: Critical PHP Vulnerabilities Are Setting the Internet on Fire⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I seriously wonder how PHP got so popular. It has never been a paragon of … anything from a serious engineer perspective.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube is testing hiding the dislike button entirely and users aren’t happy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn’t that be an argument for factoring it into recommendations, and not a reason to remove dislikes?

  … OH WAIT, I made the mistake of thinking Google cares about providing a good user experience over pushing ads and an agenda, whoopsie!

  Then reply to the entire rest of their message where they said they’re assuming you being a creep isn’t the case..?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill Gates calls for ‘human-reserved’ jobs in face of AI takeover⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Both. Or preferably, a ban on slop in professional spaces, because it’s not fucking professional.
