The fact that Israel suggested the pier to begin with should have tipped everyone off. The lack of aid getting into Gaza is not due to a logistical problem, you can’t solve it through haphazardly slapped together shipping infrastructure. Especially when that infrastructure already existed; does anyone think Gaza didn’t already have a suitable pier? Even if they didn’t there’s tons of aid sitting at the southern border behind lines of Israeli settlers protesting it.
Yeah, you can sometimes redress grievances through collective action, but don’t ever expect these people to be held accountable without that. That’s not what the “justice” system is for.
If the people who sacrifice others for their own gain are ever held to account then they will simply dismantle the law and remove any pretense of equality.
I sure hope he meant three.
gay and minority people are not any more or less political than straight white men. representing them in games is not inherently politically motivated. there are plenty of people complaining about good games in these terms, so you’re not really addressing what they’re mocking here.
if you want to talk about rainbow capitalism and diversity marketing bullshit we can go there, but that doesn’t seem to be the point you’re making here.
“Snake! Nuclear weapons are very bad! Governments mislead and influence their citizens through mass media! Privatization of military is going to lead to global chaos!”
“Wow, cool bipedal walking nuclear launch platform.”
They did it to try to broaden the conflict in hopes of drawing in direct military support from their western allies.
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.

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
people do pay for discord though. that was the entire justification for Nitro and Server Boosts. they made $440 million in revenue in 2022. they aren’t publicly traded so there’s no way to compare that with expenses, but i’d be pretty surprised if they weren’t turning a significant profit.
That bird had legs that wouldn’t quit, and an unblinking stare that looked right into your soul. She kept pleading with me to tell her “Who? Who?” but I had no answers.
Can someone willing to subject themselves to 60 Minutes tell me if they address the IC findings that debunked this?
I don’t foresee anyone with the kind of data needed to do more investigation releasing it to the public, so I doubt we’re going to be getting any satisfying answers to this. Microsoft may have an internal team combing through github logs, but if they find anything they’re unlikely to be sharing it with anyone but law enforcement agencies.
we know about the singapore VPN because they connected to IRC on libera chat with it. the only reason I can think people would believe they’re from hong kong is because of the pseudonym they used, but it’s not like that proves anything.
see link posted in another user’s reply: https://boehs.org/node/everything-i-know-about-the-xz-backdoor#irc
he was using a singapore VPN and had access to multiple sockpuppets. we know literally nothing else about them and anything you’ve heard to the contrary is baseless rumor.
leading theory is that it was a state-sponsored actor, but frankly even that much is speculation and which state is still way up in the air.
Not sure about your particular situation but there’s also the possibility that the bad CSS was good CSS when it was written and over time that got superseded by advancements in both technology and practice.
Hamas has repeatedly rejected any kind of temporary ceasefire. I can’t see why this would be any different.
Was Hamas even involved in the drafting of this deal or did the US and Israel just throw this together to paint Hamas as unreasonable when they reject it again? None of the articles I’ve read have made any effort to clarify who drew this up beyond vaguely gesturing at Israel, US, and Egypt.
The ones they dropped into the ocean causing people to drown trying to retrieve them or the ones they dropped on top of crowds of people, crushing them?
