i had just never considered that some non-american might watch south park and not recognize the running joke that everything associated with cartman is at least subtly and often unsubtly racist

I have reached the point in my curmudgeonly old age where I believe making any kind of television or film story with a negative male role model (Tyler Durden, Walter White, Tony Soprano, Don Draper, etc.) is immoral because the audience of young white men is too stupid to understand that they're not supposed to emulate him.

which, after looking it up, isn't far off. I guess the white supremacy side of things just failed to mention it means one fourth black

in sec-gently caress fun: I saw a defcon video describing an interesting attack vector: Windows Defender. Turns out it scans almost anything you come into contact with in its own container, like if you view an email in gmail with an attachment it downloads it and scans and runs it in the container. You can escape this container, and its supposedly a good time.

remember when Windows Defender used an ancient unpatched fork of the IE JavaScript interpreter to run any scripts it encountered as SYSTEM?

good times

it’s weird how the Hollywood portrayal of hacking started out absurdly wrong and then the entire industry raced to make the fictional real

they'd want to use the same dev cert for all their apps so the apps can access shared storage where they store the user tracking data

why would you store tracking data on the phone instead of in the datacenter? the only thing you'd want to share on-device is a login token

you have to share that login token between the apps somehow, either via the Keychain or App Group containers, both of which require the apps involved to be signed with the same key

tbh i don't like apples 2fa implementation because afaik you can't assign a primary device so if you have a whole bunch of apple devices it's a crapshoot as to which one to auth from

just use an otp generator like everyone else ffs

Apple does have the advantage over standard TOTP by showing you a map of where the login attempt is coming from before showing you the OTP code

everything about printers is hell-garbage from satan's rear end in a top hat and are a major reason I'm glad I'm not in IT anymore

the entire windows printer stack is a tire fire from top to bottom and microsoft doesn't dare change any of it because nothing would do more to piss off their business customers

Is it NPR where they say "Sorry, due to EU privacy laws you can't view our regular site" and then... offer you a link to the same article on their text-only site instead, which loads instantaneously and has no content on it other than the text of the article and is a hundred times better than any other current news site?

the sad thing about https://text.npr.org/ is that they could've spent slightly more effort and used the appropriate HTML tags instead of <p> everywhere and gotten so much more structure and formatting for free

of the 23 messages in my spam folder, one is a legitimate but unwanted junk mail from WB Games, one is a legitimate notification mail for some rear end in a top hat abusing another forum, two are NETLX credential phishes, one is a United States Posta credential phish, two are Chinese-language dick pill advertisements and the rest are scams (mostly 419, one in German, one in French)

actually how do you even dump a USB flash drive given it could have a CPU running an OS that detects behavior and wipes the flash irrespective of any write-blocking dongle in between the PC and the flash drive
