Currently on my 4th consecutive firmware update because I decided that I want secure boot on my desktop but Grub complains that it cannot find the shim_lock UEFI protocol, so I realized I hadn't upgraded my motherboard's fw since 2021. Anyhow how's your Saturday night going?

Hey @defcon.bsky.social I think this DEF CON 33 presentation was uploaded to YouTube with the wrong title www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRAL.... The author and presenter is Philippe Laulheret (@phlaul.bsky.social), not Christopher Domas.

Turns out implementing a 50% subscription price hike is a very nice way to test the load on your servers! Seems like Microsoft's Xbox infra was not up to the test 💀

After 8 years with 100Mbps I saw they were pulling fiber cables in my neighborhood, called my ISP and they said I can upgrade to 2.5Gbps for free paying 5€ less per month than what I am paying now. LMAO.

I don't think the website does a very good job at showing how bad current overall situation is, so here's a pie chart to make it clear. The fact that this is so close is alarming. If all vote, and 54/73 of the "Undecided" MEPs as per fightchatcontrol.eu vote in support, the regulation will pass.

"In XChat, once a user clicks on “Set up now,” X prompts them to create a four-digit PIN, which will be used to encrypt the user’s private key. This key is then stored on X’s servers."

NEW: X has started rolling out it's end-to-end encrypted chat for all users.
I was invited to start using it yesterday, so I asked a couple of experts if users should trust it. The answer: no, nobody should trust it at this point.
There are several reasons why, which they explained to me here.

X is now offering me end-to-end encrypted chat. You probably shouldn't trust it yet. | TechCrunch
