Something I’m not understanding is how these payloads even get executed. In “First Stage” in Figure 3, it explains that the user is redirected to a Github repo and then the payload is downloaded, but how exactly does it go to the second stage from there? I would assume the user has to be dumb enough to double-click on the payload that got downloaded, but the article makes it sound like this all happens automatically after clicking the initial ad link
It’s weird because Best Picture is usually given to movies that aren’t necessarily entertaining but are artistically interesting. Not sure what is artistically interesting about a romance movie, the genre is just cheesy comfort entertainment
Ah man, I miss that app. So good that my university tried to ban it.
But federation would be a weird choice for something that’s supposed to be limited to a small area. I guess if multiple people in one town wanted to run an instance…
The site is also important as a key content supplier to other torrent sites though its upload bots. Interestingly, those bots are still operational, unlike during previous downtime periods.
This tells me it’s likely a temporary technical issue
Hopefully 🥺
Awesome thank you!

Remember when Aaron Swartz tried to do something similar and received multiple life sentences
Oh nooooo here I go recording the IP addresses of the sites I visit in case I need to add DNS records to my router oh nooooo

I don’t think the author of that article knows what infamous means
False positives are going to be this thing’s downfall, calling it now

Wait why are distros removing HEVC?
Yeah, being from Russia is a lot different from being associated with the Russian government. If the maintainers are in the latter, then yeah fuck em, but if they live in Russia with no realistic way of getting out and they’re just trying to live a normal life removed from the bullshit and write code as an intellectual escape? And you take that away from them? Precisely how you radicalize people
It drives me nuts when Linux applications do this. Delete features should be analogous to rm, simple as that.
KDE recently added an “extract and delete archive” context menu option and it’s absolutely useless because it moves the archive to the Trash folder
But they’re also not ditching v2, correct?
As if money actually goes to the content creators 😂
Someday we’ll learn that GitHub just isn’t the place for this kind of stuff…
Yet another reminder that piracy on Linux is the way because new files don’t have execute permissions by default
