Video is nearly impossible to host in a sustainable way. The bandwidth usage is among the most expensive things you can host. The only way you’re getting something better than YouTube is if it’s tax funded somehow.

I imagine if this attacker wasn’t in a rush to get the backdoor into the upcoming Debian and Fedora stable releases he would have been able to notice and correct the increased CPU usage tell and remain undetected.
I think ideas about prevention should be more concerned with the social engineering aspect of this attack. The code itself is certainly cleverly hidden, but any bad actor who gains the kind of access as Jia did could likely pull off something similar without duplicating their specific method or technique.
as long as you’re up to date on everything here: https://boehs.org/node/everything-i-know-about-the-xz-backdoor
the only additional thing i’ve seen noted is a possibilty that they were using Arch based on investigation of the tarball that they provided to distro maintainers
if you feel comfortable mucking about in your BIOS, disabling TPM will pretty much guarantee they don’t spring 11 on you. they are really dead set on that requirement for some reason.
i also remember having the cube around the same time in OSX somehow but I forget the method
a single button makes the clicks sound warmer.
Yeah I don’t disagree, cans would be better than bottles. I just wanted to point out that plastic is ubiquitous and shows up in a lot of places you don’t expect. It’s extremely difficult to completely eliminate it. I’m not arguing that progress toward that goal is pointless, just that the goalpost is a lot further away than you might expect.
Yeah I made the comment before seeing all those. Which is why I deleted it shortly after posting it. Is it still showing up?

Never heard of WcDonalds before but doesn’t this kind of fuck over anyone who wants to use WcDonalds as a trademark-free McDonalds stand-in going forward? I assume the stuff that already exists is protected as “prior art” or something similar.
People who treat driving as some kind of competition should have their license permanently revoked.
Well those do seem to be the arch Linux logos he’s arranged around a hexagon to make a Star of David in those thumbnails
They’re essentially direct downloads and some services have retention that’s goes back quite a while so you don’t have to worry as much about a lack of seeders. Since it’s not peer to peer the downloads are more consistent and consistently fast. ISPs don’t (yet) police Usenet traffic the same way they do torrenting. Since you’re not seeding anything back you aren’t technically breaking any (US) laws.
I don’t generally use either torrenting or usenet lately, though, so someone else could probably do a better job of this. The last time I used usenet was around 10 years ago and torrenting around 3. And I only used torrenting because it was easy to set up on Kodi with Seren.
Maybe, but one seems to get all the attention and little results.
Here’s a few:
That’s a short list off the top of my head but there’s been plenty more.
Look into your shell’s tab completion abilities, the find command, and fzf. There’s also stuff like midnight commander but I find that to be a little overkill for my tastes.
So thoroughly CEO-brained he’s sabotaging his own business. He’d rather have his serfs in spitting distance than a future for his company. Truly incredible.
Why not? Nationalize it and treat it like the infrastructure it is. Take the ISPs, too, while you’re at it.
