A second backdoor. Windows also uploads your BitLocker keys to Microsoft’s servers by default, just in case somebody needs to get in later.

And if they are free for everyone there is no guilt or stigma preventing people from taking advantage of it.

This looks more comprehensive than Untracker, but maybe it is too complicated for some people?

Everything will stay expensive. Soon places will be rounding change to dimes and quarters instead of nickels as the value of the nickel falls even further below value of the metal it’s made from and the low value nickel loses relevancy as everyday currency.

Steal 100 gallons of water, get cut off. Steal 29 million gallons, get away with it.

You can use both at the same time and it is useful to have ULA if your ISP changes your assigned prefix.

BIOS menus aren’t the only way to adjust fan speeds on servers. You may be able to do it from Linux using a management interface.

Why RIP? It’s still alive.

This isn’t new. Even before AI, failing companies would use layoffs as a sort of loan on their quarterly numbers. If you lay off your employees, you’re really profitable for as long as you can continue collecting money for the work the employees had already done.

Setting the SSH service to a random high port doesn’t make security better and may make security worse. Linux has a restriction that low numbered ports require special permissions but high numbered ports do not. If an attacker manages to get low privilege code execution on your machine, they may manage to bind their service to the SSH port instead. If the server and client are configured correctly, this will cause a host key mismatch error. Continuing anyway could allow the attacker to take over your account on the server. It’s unlikely unless you are a high value target.

Root login and password authentication are already disabled, and it’s very uncommon for self hosters to use SSH certificates at all.

Changing the SSH port away from 22 does not improve security unless your password is “password” or “admin”. Anybody who’s even slightly sophisticated will find your SSH service on the correct port and make requests there instead.

Phishing campaign authors will love this. It normalizes users scanning barcodes they can’t read to go to unknown locations on a device where it’s harder to see the URL and there’s no IT watching for phishing activity.

Calling it a coup removes meaning from the word “coup” and then we won’t be able to describe what’s happening when it actually happens.

This is all for show. He’s violating the constitution because he can. If the war went to the current dysfunctional congress for approval, it would be a mix of “anything for you” and “it’s too late to stop now.”

This time is different. As in literally the time is different. It’s May 2026 now and this is a new illegal order.

I thought it was already over and that’s why it doesn’t need to get congressional approval to continue.

How do you prove that somebody is or is not gerrymandering for political gain?

He should get a cushy new job. Free food, free housing, free health care, free orange clothes…

There has not been a statistically significant number of times that those things have happened in a presidential race to say whether they contribute to winning or losing. By that logic, no time in American history has somebody won an election against a senile, elderly, white man. Biden had to drop out of the race because it’d have created a logic paradox for either of them to defeat the other in the election.

This problem has nothing to do with NPM. Checkmarx was compromised last month, and during that compromise there were malicious VS Code extensions published to Visual Studio Code Marketplace. A Bitwarden developer says that somebody ran one of those malicious extensions, and GitHub API keys were stolen which were used in publishing the malicious CLI package.

It’s probably better that it happened on NPM. If the CLI were only downloadable from the Bitwarden website, it would have likely taken longer for somebody to notice something was wrong.
