Soldier of FORTRAN

Lost sequel to Blade Runner

Afroman found not liable. A complete victory for the rapper and a massive unforced error from the cops and their attorney. www.billboard.com/pro/afroman-...

Zelda is the talk of the town today so here's my contribution to the party! legendsoflocalization.com/articles/zel...

His build is ready, nodes weak, pods are heavy There’s lagging in the cluster already, Kubernetes

I'm impressed by how light weight the Apple on-device Foundation LLM is for Apple Intelligence, so I vibe'd a small macOS tool (26.0+) to interact with them. It supports GUI and CLI and tool calling. Even big responses fail to move the CPU/GPU by a single percentage. Link below.

Two weeks ago, we at WIRED published a video showing how a hacked casino card shuffling machine can be used for undetectable cheating in poker. Now it turns out the mob and a couple of NBA stars were already (allegedly) using exactly this trick to make millions. www.wired.com/story/how-ha...

So, I had posted this as a reply, but figure it might be better as a thread. It turns out the Trump administration uses an app called TeleMessage to access Signal. Its source code leaked online ( @micahflee.com!) WHAT DID WE LEARN FROM THE TELEMESSAGE SOURCE CODE (for absolute beginners)? 1/x

If there's one thing I've learned about covering cybersecurity over the past decade or so, is that the cybersecurity community (the fixers and breakers) and the cybersecurity industry (profits above all else) are two very, very different things.

Today Microsoft announced Windows 11 will require a Microsoft account to create a local profile on the computer. They will be removing the bypass option available in the installation command prompt. There will still be workarounds, but they're making it harder

FOUND! We dumped BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 Week 1! Probably one of the most major finds we did in a while. BS F-Zero Deluxe has also been updated to version 1.1 to include the original data from this one! superfamicom.org/blog/2025/03... #Satellaview #FZERO

I’ve posted a detailed explanation of why the claimed ESP32 Bluetooth chip “backdoor” is not a backdoor. It’s just a poor security practice, which is found in other Bluetooth chips by vendors like Broadcom, Cypress, and Texas Instruments too. https://darkmentor.com/blog/esp32_non-backdoor/

I’ve noticed a trend, and even done it myself a time or two, but… One of the most insufferable parts of the rise of LLMs is people who see a post or a question or whatever, paste it into an LLM, and the respond with “I asked an LLM” and paste the output.

ICYMI - we need to keep Mastodon secure, and to help everyone to enjoy the latest improvements. We support older releases for fixed periods (main release version “minus two”, for six months after release of latest; so 4.1.x ends 6 months after 4.3 is released) […] [Original post on macaw.social]

Watching @grandpoobear.bsky.social suffer through Jurassic Park for the Super Nintendo was so nostalgic and so validating. It's brutal, unforgiving, and there are no save files. I never finished it. My dad did it once and never again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYjE...

A lot of folks have asked to see my "Residency Hacking" talk from last summer's Toorcamp. I'm happy to announce it's now online: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQIj...

The Paranoids @ Yahoo was one of the oldest, largest, and highest reputation internal security teams in the industry. A lot of good talent was built and trained there. This is a shame.

Popular #opensource PS3 emulator RPCS3 now offers native ARM64 support, meaning it's possible to run PlayStation 3 games on the Raspberry Pi 5 – albeit with a catch.
