Dumbest AND most genius: Fake captchas that get the user to press windows+R, then control+C, then enter.

Dumbest because if you paid attention to what’s being pasted, it’s usually a call to power shell with an arbitrary script, and it’s being pasted into your OS’s run box which is basically like a console.

But also genius because there are tons of people that fall for it, and it’s a social engineering masterpiece.

This really highlights two systemic issues: tons of people don’t know what they’re doing with computers and don’t know basic security concepts like don’t run an arbitrary script from an untrusted website, and we should probably do something about that. Which brings me to the second point that Windows is pretty ass for making it this easy. Why can you run an encoded power shell script from your run box, and why would you make bypassing the execution policy as easy as a flag in the command you’re invoking? I can’t imagine those have a lot of legitimate uses and aren’t just being abused by criminals.

This is so poorly written I have no idea if it’s sarcasm or not.

They have the same mentality as the people dunking witches in the middle ages. “It’s fine to kill them because they’ll go to heaven if they’re not a witch Jewish.”

Doesn’t Israel claim that Iran imprisons Jews? They can’t even pretend to keep their propaganda consistent, or worse, they actually believe it and wrote any hypothetical imprisoned Jews off as necessary sacrifices.

A private condemnation is a commendation but they’re too afraid to outright say it.

It’s fitting because at the end of that episode, they learn that the US was in fact the alien invaders declaring war on other planets.

Brutalism. The few brutalist buildings in my city are a welcome respite for the eyes against the blinged out crap they’re building nowadays.

Side note: It never occurred me that the Family Guy card meme has the top section full-on #FFFFFF white.

That’s not a person, that’s a ghost.

I have a hunch that racist people would be hard to haunt because they’d just see you as a white person.

"The international community is strictly watching the US and Western forces fanning up the flames of war

Ooh burn!

Even if he did, are we pretending this congress will say no? When they haven’t so much as even objected to all the other blatantly illegal shit he’s done?

Obviously I’m not saying I want Israli civilians killed. I don’t want that any more than I want Iranians and Palestinians killed.

That said, I’m finding it really hard to feel any sympathy for them.

Also doesn’t hibernate write your RAM contents to your disk? That sounds like a great way to leak your passwords and encryption keys in plaintext. Also you need to always reserve the same amount of space on disk as your RAM and can’t use that space for anything else on the off chance you might want to hibernate.

Enjoy the fresh air today because it’s the cleanest it will ever be.

Climate change has barely even started. Anyone who thinks this is bad is in for a surprise.

Remember that Zionism isn’t just about Palestine. They think the entire region belongs to them.

Is aviation getting more dangerous? Anyone in the field know? We’ve had multiple crashes this year when we had gone multiple years without a fatal crash in the 2010s.
