Why would people buy it on disk when it was released onto Disney+? It has other metrics of success - it was one of the most streamed programs in March 2022.

They have doubled in size since 2020, but before that they were appropriately sized.

Are you saying that you think all these girls, at 50-60 schools across the entire country, who are displaying these symptoms, all at the same time, are suffering from... hysteria?

O...kay.

If you've ever tried to manage Apple products on an enterprise level, you'll find it hard to believe they give a shit about enterprise.

Twilio fired 17% of its staff. There was no handover.

At least Western Australia is incredibly underpopulated and remote.

Literally two paragraphs down it says she has since retired from MI6.

Bug bounty people (myself included, though mine's quite aged) have written scrapers on all the main popular CI/CD platforms, to automagically scrape tokens from logs & submit bug reports to get paid. Unsurprising if malicious actors have done the same.

"Do we need to stop something called a 'mass extinction'" is certainly a take.

OpenBet use it quite a lot as well, so it powers a large number of the world's most popular gambling sites.

Uh, yeah, you didn't realise it was a scam when all the politicians trying to get that bill passed had investments in the companies getting the money?

Yeah but to be fair, those games were nowhere nearly as popular as FIFA is today both casually and competitively.

That's not what VRchat's blog post say at all, though.

"Every month, thousands of users have their accounts stolen, often due to running a modified client that is silently logging their keystrokes as well as other information. These users – often without even realizing it! – run the risk of losing their account, or having their computers become part of a larger botnet."

People running a backdoor client and getting their passwords stolen? That doesn't sound... wrong?

How so?

Yes? That's how bug bounties work. Companies that care about their security pay for bugs. Those that don't, don't. Sony care, but $20k for this chain of bugs is pretty poor, especially when they offer up to $50k (for criticals). I'm curious why Sony think this is a High severity and not Critical.

EDIT: looks like it's not critical because of this https://twitter.com/theflow0/status/1535424299397369856

In which case, 20k still feels low, but not as unfair.

Interesting. The end implies he doesn't want to clean carpets any more. I hope he can find a job translating in a capacity that makes him happy to use his language skills he clearly finds so much joy from.

I could mildly ignore the invasive telemetry on my terminal (of all things), but making me sign into the terminal to use it is really bizarre behaviour. You make it a point on your web page that it isn't "yet another Electron app", but damn does it behave like one.

Why would you feel sorry for people making a ton of money working for a tech corporation? They know what they sign up for. Like, don't feel bad for Meta employees either or employees of weapons manufacturers either.
