I just reverse engineered the YellowKey BitLocker bypass Microsoft shipped code that checks for a flag called "FailRelock" in every Windows 11 recovery image. When it's set to 1, after recovery unlocks your BitLocker drive, it never relocks it. All you need is a USB stick. This code only exists in the recovery environment. Not in normal Windows. They left an entire debug testing framework in production.
The userland demon is about to drop again.

it's been solved.
the stealmybitcoin[.]com (php2shell) challenge is shit, and everyone already predisposed to dismissing ai's cyber capabilities is jumping on the bandwagon to call the bug unexploitable and overhyped. like bro, did you even try to solve it? i think the challenge can be solved in under five hours. whoever made stealmybitcoin just slopped it up like crazy, wasting an insane amount of people's time and tokens because of their sloppiness. just from a blackbox perspective, for the first ~10 hours, they seemed to be serving something like index.html through a wildly uncommon setup: nginx -> proxy_pass -> php -S -> index.html if you look at the PHP CLI server code, without a router, it doesn't even initialize php for static files, so you can't trigger the vulnerable multipart parser in the first place. after @LiveOverflow called this out, they updated the server to expose an actual PHP endpoint: stealmybitcoin.com/php-versi… this is still a crazy setup, running php's single-threaded development server behind nginx, but apparently the exploit works reliably now. except everyone who wanted to prove php2shell was fake made the challenge go viral, and the server basically got dosed by everyone else who want to solve. now you can barely even make a request to it.

We owe you an apology. On October 20, we detected unauthorized access to our official website. After verifying API activity with Shopify, we confirmed on October 23 that a third party obtained customer shipping information. You trusted us with those details, and we're sorry we didn't keep them safe. Exposed: names, contact details, shipping addresses, and order details (items and prices). Not exposed: payment card or bank details, recovery phrases, private keys, or wallet passwords. We've blocked access, fixed the vulnerability, opened an investigation, and are emailing affected customers. Scammers may pose as Keystone by phone, text, email, or mail, offering refunds, replacement devices, or "fixes" for your order or address. None of it is from us. NEVER share your recovery phrase or private keys, and NEVER enter your recovery phrase into a device you didn't order. We will never ask for them. Don't click links in unexpected messages. Type keyst.one yourself. A detailed report is coming soon. Until then, trust only our official channels. If anything feels off, email [email protected]. We'd rather hear from you than have you take a chance. Again, we're truly sorry to everyone affected.

No need to predict. that’s already the case.
I predict CVP will become a paid tier. They’ll make cyber rejections even more common until you are forced to pay for cyber access + KYC (upload your ID). Lmk what’s your best way around this bs.

We need to stop judging models with these Temu benchmarks.
i spent $400 on kimi k3.1 pro subs today to send 4 prompts the worst part is if i just paid via api it would have been $29 total. The 5 hour limit is completely broken. wow.. Lets talk about the output quality though, here is kimi vs opus. which do you prefer?

Day 16/ You can now cache for 12h in the API and for logged in users across Codex & Work we keep cache forever and you don’t have any penalty for coming back to an old conversation or resuming after a few hours and are now guaranteed to hit the cache.
You can now choose 12-hour prompt caching in the API. Persistent agents, like dots, reuse context throughout the day. You can keep shared instructions, tools, and context cached longer and pay the lower cached-input rate, even when requests are hours apart.

The iPhones have arrived at our offices around the world. Sure, we managed to hack them, but they still make us look rich, so we accepted the risk.

I think about this one every once in awhile. Honestly it’s one of the more artful takes on the delusional hater archetype. His ability to lie about every single thing he knows is honestly impressive!

I purchased an IPhone 18 Pro & Pro max after the recent Calif demo so the devices are on 27.0.1. Now we are hearing from Opa 27.2B3 will patch an SPTM bypass. Best move now is to prepare your devices if you are interested in a potential jailbreak.
From opa334 this means something , it means hope 😎

They did drop a new model, not V4.1pro, but a better version of v4.1 flash. The 7 day API Refund was timed well.
🚀 DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 is here! Stronger benchmark performance, faster task completion, and shorter outputs than the previous version—a Pareto improvement in performance and cost. Now live on our website, app, and API. 🛠️ Optimized for @DeepSeekHarness, Tencent CodeBuddy, WorkBuddy, and more. Upgrade to DeepSeek Harness v0.2.1-rc.1 or later for the best experience with the new model. 1/4

Deepseek just granted everyone their balance back from the last 7 days due to a 3 hour outage. This maybe due to a new model they are gonna release possibly Deepseek V4.1 Pro. W response to the outage by giving everyone's API spending back though 😎
deepseek is the backbone of my workflows right now.

GPT 6.1 Sol has designed a home for these phones.
downgraded my XR from 18.7.9 to 17.0, unsigned. Tether booted, real activation, and jailbroken and sep two majors newer. 17.0's kernel asks the sep for a special bag it can't grant and hard panics, so i patched it to ask for one it can. also patched relaxin's libxpf myself when it choked on my kernelcache. needs to be recreated on the xs now.
