  • Well that’s probably true. I mean lots of stuff was obviously hacked and deleted, and if you trust the script output in the stream mostly from whitedate. child and deal are later off-shoots it seems, but date had like 6k users, some paying, the main project basically. And it’s still offline. And whitedeal shows a 2019 copyright notice. :D

    There was an interactive map of the user profiles hosted by the hacker at https://okstupid.lol/ but it seems to be down right now. And the journalists who participated in the talk (and pointedly left before the script was run) announced there will be more articles released soon.








  • a low latency kernel (whatever that means. I’ll get there to figure it out eventually)

    It’s a kernel with real-time process scheduling enabled by default.

    In normal kernels a process can theoretically block all other processes from running for up to several seconds, which is obviously bad for time sensitive things like audio recordings or controlling a CNC-machine for example.

    In real-time scheduling all processes are guaranteed time slices in more regular intervals. This is good for time sensitive things like audio recording, but since there is some scheduling overhead it’s bad for single resource intensive processes or process trees like video games.

    You can read more about the difference between a real time and low latency kernel here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/RealTimeKernel

    First I heard of this, but since it seems to be just some software that runs on the hardware of car manufacturers it seems rather unlikely. But very theoretically possible, if the car manufacturer was using default process scheduling in a CPU constrained machine and now switches to real-time scheduling in an update. But that was possible for years before this news, the code has just been mainlined to the default kernel now. If the car manufacturer cared about that they would probably have done it already with a patched kernel.

    Because bee stingers are mostly used against other insects. They don’t get stuck in a chitin exoskeleton, only in the more flexible skin tissue of mammals. In insects the barbs instead pull out soft tissue from inside, thus making them more lethal (to the bees victim).







  • I think the problem might be your PostUp/PostDown lines have an in-interface (-i) but are missing an out-interface (-o) for the forwarding. Try this:

    PostUp   = iptables -A FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -A FORWARD -o %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ens3 -j MASQUERADE
    PostDown = iptables -D FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -D FORWARD -o %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o ens3 -j MASQUERADE

    I sometimes forget that this picture exists, and then I happen upon it in places like here and it just smacks me in the face how perfectly it encapsulates the total and utter loss of decorum in politics. I mean it was never perfect obviously, but in past times there was a somewhat reasonable expectation of politicians being civil and them losing their office if they were publicly caught out not to be. It was rare, but it happened. Yet here you have the supposedly “most powerful man in the world” just dropping every pretence and hustling for some company in a flagrant abuse of his office. It’s so brazenly corrupt. And the worst thing is this was just another Tuesday for Trump, mild shit-storm, on to the next fucked up thing he did. Society never even had time to realise what a historic moment this was. It was just dropped on the pile.
