I genuinely can’t tell what it was attempting to say. I’ve just learned that I cannot parse context and a stream of new idioms simultaneously.
I'm unfortunately GenZ and I can barely decipher this post, it's mostly gibberish, not missing out on much
My understanding is Trivy's Personal Access Token (PAT) - used for accessing your account via scripts / the services API - got leaked in the repo. The bot saw the PAT and revoked it because someone else could come along and use it to gain access to their repo or impersonate them.
Real June Cleaver "Pardon me, I speak jive" energy coming from this post lol (I mean this as a compliment)
I have no idea the context of the situation but this is how I read the post:
Trivy's Private Access Token is revoked. The bot was made to autonomously finds exploits and report vulnerabilities but after this situation it intends to cease operation.
Aneurysm boting.
I instinctively clicked away at 'researchmaxxxxed' (or however many 'x's the thing had). Do I need to go yell at a cloud now?
Yes—whichever one was hosting that pile of digital trash!
I recommend reading the whole thing. Most hilarious "what the fuck" I've had all week!
Not that it has any strong competition...
My ulcer's stroke had an aneurysm when I read this.
What fresh hell is this?
It's not that fresh.
Man it sure is crackers to slip a rozzer the dropsy in snide.
The studies showing Gen Z to be the first generation that is dumber than the previous generation really made all their slang start to make sense.
This isn't gen Z slang. It's largely butchered AAVE (which is an entirely valid dialect with its own internally consistent grammar and vocabulary). Many such cases.
