Ok going off the script a little.
I actually just had the brain wave to start up my PC House Doctor service again.
Dollar signs appear in my eyes when I remember back to the XP RPC vulnerability and how much business I did from that. This seriously, seriously sounds reminiscent of that - except the threat is directly inside the OS now it's baked in.
like data exfiltration or ... installation
Bad actors are going to have a fucking field day.
Reminds me of a game my buddy and I made called BIP.
BIP was a crazy computer that went nuts.
Our code was about as sophisticated as this. As in, not. lol
Costco gives one year additional warranty on top of manufacturers warranty, I have received in my life, three completely new laptops as a result of this. Manufacturer gives one year warranty, credit card gives another year warranty, Costco gives a third year warranty, nothing is sweeter than parts not being available at year 2.5, and you get a massive upgrade.
Hard to put a stupid offhand remark re vidja games on the same level as a man that handed mobile computing to Apple and later Google, who wasn't even trying to compete, was just strategically releasing Android as a market disruptor.
"look at this photograph"
Can't even be bothered to name them, they suck so fucking hard
Lol right. Give me a god damned break! You can't be serious, you're trolling, or genuinley know nothing of music.
I'm not debating that they bring the hype, people love them and yes they have their influential place in the history of rock.
I'm just saying in this era, I am lost as to why anybody would seek that music out. It had its place and it had its time, but that was like 50+ years ago.
I don't need to hear these boots are made for walkin', and I don't need to hear I wanna be sedated. They're anthems from an ancient time.
haha strong "no one beats Vitas Gerulaitis 17 times in a row” vibes
Live off the If You Want Blood album is the best version! Hype
Yes, look into the man. He composed a shitload of his music.
I personally don't even like the man's musical output. That said, I can recognize genius. The man was nothing short of a musical genius with very few I could even list next to him, perhaps with the exceptions of Stevie, Herbie, Prince, Eno, and other brilliant minds. The guy was out of his tree, but on a level of musicality most people can't even grasp.
I hope you find this less exciting than the vacuum cord replacement post, in which I was (rightly) chastised for being vaguely interesting
I got the vacuum for $10, and I salvaged the power cable from another vacuum I got for free.
I soldered the connections, and I used the appropriate amount of flux. I also used shrink tubes
I wish I could have seen the presentation. I love the slides.
It's what I've been saying for a long time, we are at the "We can easily drill to the center of the Earth, we're simply waiting for the drilling machine to be complete" stage.
