  • You are not the only thing capable of running binaries on your system. There's always the possibility of something else being compromised that now has the capability to run this binary.

    Security comes in many layers on top of each other and with software having to work together to plug all possible holes, not just the direct exploitation paths you are currently actively conscious about and using.

  • Homeland Security Spying on Reddit Users: Leak show feds tracking anti-ICE Reddit users like "Budget-Chicken-2425"

    Jump

  • It's kind of well-known and a long-running meme at this point that Redditors have a superiority complex about other platforms and think only theirs is the most "intelligent" and "rational" platform. It dates back to when it was mostly controlled by right-libertarian fedora-wearing raging atheist types.

    Did you just log on to the Internet for the first time yesterday?

  • BIOS? I wired switches directly to the data and address lines of my RAM/CPU and toggle in the machine code directly every time I use my PC.

  • Data is garbage until you define its structure and what it is supposed to represent, and there's nothing stopping something from interpreting it as something else, we do it all the time in progranming as type casting. The same piece of data can be just a normal integer to one function, while it's a text character to another.

    Microsoft Issues Emergency Windows 11 Out-of-Band Update

  • "Oh fuck. Copilot, revert that code change, it's even more broken now."

    "Yes, you are completely correct, and I apologize for the mistake! Here is a patch to fix the broken code!"

    Narrator: It did not fix the broken code.

  • Senate GOP Plans to Give ICE $10 Billion More as Masked Agents 'Murder People in Broad Daylight'

  • "Live with it"

    Gonna say the same when your fucking back is against the wall next to all the other fucks just like you when all this is over? Society destroyed fascism once. We will fucking do it again.

    We have to make these assholes start thinking carefully about their words. They need to be looking over their shoulder 24/7 now. I'm fucking done. Ban me for inciting violence, IDGAF. As far as I'm concerned, it's self defense now.

    How to Funk Star Trek in 24 Seconds

  • Restaurants say big chains pretend to be independents on apps

    Jump

  • The restaurant equivalent of fly by night bootleg brand stores on Amazon, where you have ten different stores all selling the same product, sometimes a straight up copy, other times with a very slight variation.

  • Do not the filesystem/partition management while high. From personal experience.

  • ICE agent who shot Renee Good suffered internal bleeding, officials say

    Jump

  • "Internal bleeding to the torso"

    Without any more than that, I'm going to assume he just got a fucking bruise.

  • Cherishing all nuggets of knowledge.

    Jump

  • Exactly the same concept as memory-mapped hardware I/O, or virtual file system drivers. Makes it so you don't have to think too much about implementation details and uses a common interface that's already there.

  • Musk’s AI tool Grok will be integrated into Pentagon networks, Hegseth says

    Jump

  • Don't need to be able to think to cause mass devastation with a rogue AI. I present the paperclip problem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumental_convergence

    And from my experience trying to use it for programming, I know it absolutely will try its best to reach an unbounded goal you set for it even if it means creating the most convoluted and unmaintainable spaghetti code you've ever seen, or even trying to find loopholes to suppress error messages without actually fixing the error.

  • Wasn't this the cause of future events in the whole Terminator series?

  • House votes to revive Obamacare funds as senators plot a scaled-back bill

  • Yeah what year is it, 2012? Can I hold onto my Bitcoins this time instead of spending them all on drugs?

  • Elon Musk Shares and Endorses Shocking X Post That Says ‘White Solidarity Is the Only Way to Survive’

  • Kill whiteness even harder? Got it.

  • How do we actually confront or evade "kirkification" and the flood of ai slop?

    Jump

  • You are exactly right. It's going to require more work. You are going to have to run your own network cables through your house and use commercial hardwired IP cameras and learn to program them and also set up a local DVR to record the footage. You'll basically have to build what a retail store uses. You're not going to find what you're looking for in residential garbage tech. Stick to commerical equipment, because commerical IT is usually not too fond of installing crap that arbitrarily phones home and tend to run way more locked down networks than what you find in a typical home.

  • Depends on which side of the wall. I'm sure the ISS would turn into a crushed soda can if the pressures were reversed.

  • It treat it like the Marines do. You're never a "former" astronaut once you earn the title. That's an accomplishment that a fraction of a fraction of humans currently alive will ever achieve.
