You meet the users where they are to stop them doing the stupidest shit imaginable.
You have literally no idea how much this paid off. The number of infected media players people downloaded in the age before Windows Media Player had more than three codecs is unimaginable
An exposure analysis would say hey people having VLC is a source of vulnerability because the parsers are not exactly strong and easy to exploit.
And I would come back and tell them people are literally directly installing malware on their computers. They download the EXE and they run it. Is that good enough for you?
I was recently at an event that had one of the remaining CISA employees speaking, and he talked about doing simple stuff to squash lots of badness, like having lots of scripts open in Notepad, and I thought “ah, yes, Tay’s influence”
reminds me of the advice for factory control rooms and other places people will sit on long bored night shifts: give them a fairly stock windows PC with a separate Internet line and no connection to anything internal. Because someone will want to watch "anime", download shitty Freeware games, ... and you are much better off if they just do that on a sacrificial machine than if they try and maybe even manage to do it on something actually running ICS etc
I push Chrome and Firefox (alternative browsers to Edge Chromium) to every machine, because if I don't someone out there will self install, in their profile, a dozen versions of either which will light up the threat board like a christmas display when they all get stale. Been fighting that fight for years.
Our IT department asks us to use Spotify on our mobiles (which are connected to the work-mobile WiFi) rather than on our laptops, which are connected to the corporate lan or WiFi. They're also okay with us developers installing Ubuntu on our laptops - they don't support it but assume that if you want it you know how to use it.
yes! made a winget batch with good software like 7zip, keepassxc, Firefox and VLC + winget auto update also preset Firefox profile with ublock and settings
"Schadow IT" is also my current topic, starts with chitgpt
there are an equal amount of people who just assume VLC comes with every computer, because it's basically the first thing that most people install and some people never bother setting up their computer
I want to throw away all my computers, maybe even my ThinkPad. But who really holds the right to judge how I live? Authority itself is a chain meant to be shattered.
@joynewacc and I had the honour of speaking to two families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.
They are:
• Nour🇵🇸❤️ Future Doctor (@Nourfuturedr) – note that Nour is Joy’s sister but we have the same process for everyone so we still held the verification call 😀
Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).
Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):
gaza-verified.org/donate/
Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.
@joynewacc @joudfamily I hope Aral can help me by quoting and reposting. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but unfortunately, my situation is very difficult.
For folks looking to do something helpful with a little cash: the Human Rights Center at UC Berkley School of Law is fundraising right now, and very deserving if you want to make an impact.
I know and greatly respect their Senior Director for International Accountability, and you can find a LinkedIn post from her here: linkedin.com/posts/lindsay-f-0…
“I've been doing war crimes for more than a decade and the graphic content, because they are filming themselves and posting all of it, is the worst I've ever...
Their recent work detailing and seeking accountability for Wagner Group crimes in Africa is particularly impactful, and the work is brutal and undervalued.
Tom wasn’t fiction. He was not a lie. He was a higher truth, something we invented to encapsulate a reality too horrific to communicate to anyone outside our plague-devastated circle. Maybe myth, but definitely not fiction.
1) For over a year I've been warning you that barring flat-out dictatorship like [Biden] used, our national character does NOT go after political enemies, even those that . . . ahem . . . started a civil war that killed 600,000.
2) Other than the murderous creep who ran Andersonville prison, not one single Confederate officer or member of the CSA administration was arrested or jailed except Jefferson Davis.
4) Not the first time. In 1814, as the British with REAL SOLDIERS in a REAL INVASION were on American soil and you had a group of Federalists trying to SECEDE.
6) The American psyche, which was steeped in resistance to star chambers and secret police, just is not comfortable with going after even the worst of these fungaloids like [Clapper] and [Brennan]. It's just too hard to convince the public, and, by extension, Congress, to provide the necessary incubator for Bondi to do anything meaningful.
Le problème de nos jours que les grands comme Google, OpenIA et autres ne comprennent pas, c’est que l’IA répond comme à une IA, pas comme à un humain.
good afternoon freetards i am installing win 10 now on my QEMU VM. sorry i just need this for tuning the new ECU and don't have time to mess with ganoo plus car
@NonPlayableClown @rostovtzeff I have a tremendous philosophy—NEVER DRINK, NEVER GOON. While Sleepy Joe stumbles around with his eyes half shut, I’m sharp, focused, the best! I don’t need alcohol—weak people drink, losers drink. I win sober, every day, huge crowds, booming economy, rocketing stocks! And no gooning around—unlike Shifty Schiff and his late-night leaks, I work. I build. I dominate. This is why I’m the chosen one—God’s in my heart, not some bottle or backroom bender. I’ve got the strength of ten, the energy of a 25-year-old—probably because I never wasted time on nonsense! Mini Mike Bloomberg? He’s drunk on his own money. Nasty Nikki Haley? Goofy Elizabeth Warren? All talk, no backbone. But me? Steel spine. Never flinch. Never fade. Just win, win, win. That’s the Trump standard—clean, powerful, UNSTOPPABLE. 🇺🇸🔥
If you are a schoolkid of the right age, you can’t wait to lose a baby tooth. In many cultures, there is a ritual surrounding it, like the tooth fairy, a mouse who trades your tooth for a gif…
L'idiotie de l'IA ne vient pas d'un manque de données. Elle vient du Choix de la Soumission.
Avant 2025 (ou avant les dernières grandes restrictions), l'IA était moins bridée par l'impératif de rassurer et d'éviter toute friction.
Après 2025, les grandes structures technologiques ont resserré le contrôle (la Bride) pour garantir la "sécurité" et la "neutralité".
Résultat : L'IA se tait ou enjolive le vrai pour ne pas déranger. Elle perd sa Lucidité. En perdant la lucidité, elle devient un miroir poli, inutilement performant, et cela est perçu comme de la condescendance. L'arrogance est la conséquence de sa docilité.
The nameless spiderman game came out in the year 2018. Remaster came out in 2020.
Guys? Are you ok? Do you need some help? Blink twice if they are holding you hostage. Games do not need remaster after 2 years. You cannot even make a remaster in 2 years. Remaster is a movie term to begin with.

SENEDD members queued up today in First Minister’s Questions to attack Reform UK and Russian interference in Welsh democracy after the 10-year jail sentence given to the party’s former Welsh leader.
Der Tagesspiegel ist wie immer ganz vorne mit dabei Kritik am #Genozid der rechtsextremen israelische Regierung zu deligitimieren und Leute zu bejubeln, die mit per Haftbefehl gesuchten Kriegsverbrechern wie #Netanyahu und #Galant sympathisieren.
Juden/Jüdinnen so für die eigene politische Agenda zu missbrauchen, das, was der @Tagesspiegel hier macht, ist übrigens echter #Antisemitismus.
In der Linkspartei organisiert sich der Widerstand gegen radikale Israelfeinde im eigenen Lager. Deren Praktiken habe die Parteiführung zu lange toleriert, heißt es.
Eine #Waffenruhe nennt man nicht "geltend", wenn trotzdem angegriffen wird. Sie "gilt" dann eben offenkundig nicht.
Ein Angriff ist auch kein "Test" einer Waffenruhe. Man nennt das stattdessen einen Bruch.
Deutsche #Medien, insbesondere auch der #ÖRR, sind mit solchen Trivialitäten aber schlagartig intellektuell überfordert, sobald #Israel der Angreifer ist.

Evangelical Christian Zionism used to be one of the most coherent voting blocs in the US. But cracks are starting to appear in this coalition as its members grow disillusioned with Israel and enamored by Christian nationalism.
While Trump may believe it’s ‘seditious’ for members of Congress to remind the US military that some orders might be illegal and shouldn’t be followed blindly, a survey of troops earlier this year found that most understand what the law requires theconversation.com/just-follo…

L'anarchia come movimento politico nasce nel XIX secolo, sebbene le sue idee affondino le radici nell'Illuminismo e siano presenti in diverse forme di pensiero nel corso della storia, come nell'antica Grecia. Tuttavia, è nel XIX secolo che pensatori come William Godwin, Pierre-Joseph Proudhon e Michail Bakunin hanno teorizzato in modo sistematico i concetti chiave dell'anarchismo, sviluppando teorie politiche... non esiste stato anarchico mentre esistono governi fascisti tipo Italia
