one of the biggest waste of times this entire quarter was probably @world_xyz got a good amount of attention from the entire space just to do no airdrop, rug the stimmy after a couple of hours and now literally nobody uses the platform a total of $60K in OI on their top markets COMBINED lesson learned somewhere: don't bait people

The McRib is back on 10/27. BTC historically goes up >2x after the McRib returns. Don't fade the McRib. Not financial advice.

So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

I built software that detects people jaywalking all over the world with the help of unprotected surveillance cameras. You can also report them by pressing a big emergency button. It then sends an email to the closest police station. More info here: driesdepoorter.be/jaywalking

Time for Ledger to launch this

Imagine buying Bitcoin at $2,000 in 2017, riding it to $20,000 diamond-handing the -84% bleed all the way to $3,100, surviving the 2020 flash crash to $3,800, holding through the China mining ban, watching Luna and 3AC blow up, sitting through Celsius, Voyager, BlockFi, and FTX bankruptcies, refusing to sell at the $15,500 cycle bottom, holding all the way up to $126,000 then surviving the brutal 10/10 liquidation massacre, riding it all the way back down to $58,000, finally breathing a sigh of relief when it bounces to $83,000 and then losing all your Bitcoin overnight because you bought your Ledger wallet from an authorized reseller.
