Supreme Court: Death Penalty Is ‘Totally Badass’

Just get better at hunting. You go out for hours at a time and never come back successful.

It’s a good thing that the pantry always has food, otherwise we’d be in trouble.

I’m currently going through the One Piece manga for the first time and I’m having a blast.

I’m in the middle of Punk Hazard right now and it’s starting to drag on, but I’m told that everything gets way better afterwards.

• Game: Return of the Obra Dinn
• Book: House of Leaves
• TV: Twin Peaks
• Movie: The Matrix

I’m not sure I necessarily agree. Your assessment is correct, but I don’t really think this situation is security by obscurity. Like most things in computer security, you have to weight the pros and cons to each approach.

Yubico used components that all passed Common Criteria certification and built their product in a read-only configuration to prevent any potential shenanigans with vulnerable firmware updates. This approach almost entirely protects them from supply-chain attacks like what happened with ZX a few months back.

To exploit this vulnerability you need physical access to the device, a ton of expensive equipment, and an incredibly deep knowledge in digital cryptography. This is effectively a non-issue for your average Yubikey user. The people this does affect will be retiring and replacing their Yubikeys with the newest models ASAP.

Absolutely. If you are the CISO in a place where security is a top priority with adversaries that may have access to the equipment and knowledge to exploit this, you will absolutely want to retire the keys ASAP and replace them with the new model that is not vulnerable to this.

I like #B00B69. Not only for the name, but also because it’s a really nice magenta color

This started happening to me more and more after I hit my 30s, and it stopped happening once I started taking a daily multivitamin.

I’ve yet to find a better controller than the DS4.

It has the perfect feel in the hands. And with Steam’s controller support, Ive yet to have an issue with functionality or button remapping(I haven’t played crosscode, so no info there)

Don’t forget about Japan. They’re also an epicenter of extraterrestrial activity and supernatural disaster

I love this place. Thank you for keeping it alive.

Oh yeah, Project management is one of those roles that is especially vulnerable to the Peter Principal.

In order to be a good one, you need to be part therapist and part hostage negotiator while also being one of those weirdos that enjoys meetings

A few competent project managers would probably help things quite a bit, actually.

Having a single point of contact for several disparate teams of people doing real work so that they can actually do that work, instead of spending extra time in endless meetings arguing over the best way to implement something that requires multiple people’s input is a valuable tool to have.

Think of them like a tank in an RPG, taking all the meeting hits that would otherwise decimate the effectiveness of people actually putting the real work in.

Deadly Towers.

This game is awful

Ive played this version with my nephews before. You can still be raunchy, but you’ve got to be a bit more creative with innuendo.

Sure, but an average user is not going to know to check for the URL protocol. It’s still incredibly effective for phishing

You’ve got half of it. The hacker’s server is acting as a middleman for the real login page. Everything appears legitimate except the URL will be wrong and if you use a password manager, it won’t auto-fill

They access the legit login page and forward it to you, but they’re in the middle capturing everything you send.

When you enter your login details, they will record them and then forward them to the real login window in near real time, effectively logging in as you. They then have a legitimate session token which they can use to access your account without needing to re-authenticate.

An attack using this tool does require that the user actually logs in, but because they’re just acting as a proxy for the real login page, the only way you’d spot the difference is if the URL doesn’t match (or that your password manager doesn’t auto-fill)

However, it’s pretty easy to see that someone would be fooled by that as you’d expect to need to confirm your identity when adding a gift card to your steam account.

Typically, with scams like this, the attacker is using a tool like Evilginx.

The way this works is that Evilginx runs on a server that the hacker controls and will request the login page from whatever service they are targeting(Discord, Steam, Google, etc) and then serve it to you as a proxy. It looks entirely legitimate unless you make sure to very closely check the URL.

Once you login, it will take a copy of your Username, your password, and your session token(the thing that lets Discord know it’s you so you don’t need to login again after every refresh). and suddenly the attackers now have access to your account to do whatever they want with it.

Discord should absolutely prevent modifying links in this way specifically for this reason, but good practice as a user is to hover over every link and make sure it’s pointing where it’s supposed to. Don’t click on anything that looks suspicious.

Nintendo doesn’t go after fangames like this

Unless you’re like AM2R, Pokemon Uranium, Mario 64 online, or any of the the other numerous fangames, romhacks, or mods that Nintendo threatened to sue into oblivion.
