Now that's a properly professional attack. Excellent pretext; leverages expectations around windows' notoriously poor stability for end users; the malware accounts for Defender; it uses the presence of an obscure, machine-readable-but-human-obtuse measure to guide user action; and apparently it's got clear enough directions to get users to -compile software on the machine-.

This is truly exceptional; well fucking done on some actual -proper- villainy.

cognitive decay is very real.

the brain - and its functions - require exercise in the same way that your muscles do; if you do not exercise things like "decision making" and "problem solving" then you will find yourself unable to use them.

be very careful what functions you outsource.

if the LLM services went down tomorrow,

how many people d'ye reckon would be unable to figure out how to feed themselves that day?

You know, I think that this could be adapted for infosec purposes pretty easily.

@eniko

developers really need to learn how consent works. this constant pushing thing sucks.

rsyslog did WHAT?!

"AI" is rapidly becoming synonymous with "poor quality crap"

I am enjoying seeing this become more obvious.

Hot take:

Discord is not a documentation platform. It is a chat platform. If your project requires connecting to a discord to obtain necessary information, then your project is undocumented.

@mcc

that's why it drives people insane

I think that Silksong's existence shows pretty conclusively that the idea that people need to struggle against not having their basic needs met in order to be sufficiently 'motivated' to contribute to society is bullshit.

Hollow Knight gave the members of Team Cherry generational-wealth levels of resources. They had no need to release another game in order to keep food on the table - they did so because they chose to, and they took their time around doing it, and by and large people are extraordinarily happy with the results.

The whole concept that people "need" to be threatened with starvation and homelessness to "keep them motivated" - something I've seen seriously argued many times in the past - is a traumatic narrative that the actual evidence (look at every single study on unconditional basic income!) counters.
