Outside of bots and spam, third party Discord clients also often disable a lot of Electron's options that guard against XSS stuff escaping the sandbox, which is pretty dangerous. I wouldn't be surprised if Discord wanted to minimi

Neither really, it's demonstrating that it's kind of dumb to consider a paid advertisement "speech" for the purposes of "free speech", considering there's inherently a restriction there on how much "s

Yeah, the SEC did. After the contempt hearing, they had to renegotiate what constitutes "material" information as a part of their settlement, and that was essentially Musk/Tesla's wake-up call of "Oh, we only just B

It seems like the big distinction is going to be between "they didn't tell investors that they were a huge climate change contributor" and "they didn't tell investors how much money they'd lose out on from stri

It was definitely for the banking trojan he created and sold, that would later become Kronos. That said, he also became sort of a public figure in the field due to stopping the initial strain of Wannacry, so news articles were popping up ta

I mean that's a perfect choice as long as your marketing strategy isn't to hope that people pay extra for the feature thinking that it's FSD. The fact that Tesla still hasn't done something like this is proof that they

A sort of ELI5 on this for those that may not be familiar with any of this: Ray tracing algorithms require checking to see if a ray will intersect with objects in a scene. This takes a LOT of time, and if you want this to be interactive r

Oh, if that's the case, then the reporters were just wrong about how the software worked. If it only required the read access, then that would be a legitimate vulnerability.

by Derek_MK 7y ago
The point is that, if an admin misconfigures the software, then the vulnerability is on them, and the software itself doesn't need to change (minus arguments of usability but that's a whole other can of worms).

I kinda went back and forth on this. The initial comments here made me think that this was basically the reporter saying "person with su can do su things". Then I looked at the PostgreSQL statement, which said that the report clai

They can easily just display a warning that the site is not officially supported on X browser, and the user may run into unexpected errors. This is an active thing that Microsoft is doing, not something they're forced to do.
