There was this site called LyricWiki[0] (lyrics.wikia.com) that was one of the larger wiki sites a few years back. Things went downhill quickly once wikia became fandom. Making new articles and editing was blocked in 2019 and the whole thin

Telegram and discord webhooks are 100% signs of an unsophisticated attacker and they are a very common sight in malware samples. Github is full of skiddie "info stealer" projects that use telegram api / discord webhook to del

You can download official ISOs of all of the Windows versions for free directly from Microsoft's servers. Then you just need to activate it and there are plenty of methods to do that without risk of malware. Microsoft seems to care abo

Highly recommended, didn't think I'd watch the whole thing but the production quality was great and it explains everything much better than the wired article.

The roboform password manager used datetime value as the seed of the pseudorandom generator, meaning that it would always generate the same password if the system clock time was the same. They managed to crack the wallet by reverse engineer

There is hoping this verdict will be challenged and overturned. If they start applying the same liability standards to other type of software I could see many cybersecurity professionals catching heat.

I spent like 15 minutes trying to find an official download link, even registered a broadcom account but that was a waste of time as well. Ended up finding a working download link from some reddit comment. It seems to contain all versions o

I'd guess telegram can be secure if used correctly but the fact that their desktop client doesn't support secret chats at all feels weird. It has been one of the most requested features but they seem to have no interest in impleme

I don't think that is a legal requirement in Germany. At least Hetzner lets you rent a German VPS or dedicated server without ID. Though Hetzner may require you to submit an ID if you are flagged by their automated systems upon registr

Yes you can, I had no problems adding balance with a credit card issued in Finland. No need for a VPN or anything. Been using the API for three weeks now.

There is no mention of any company name on userbenchmark's site so there is nothing to search. I guess not selling anything and not accepting donations helps to keep the owner private.

Yeah according to their website[0] it looks like majority of the past contributors were Finnish so nothing odd about the hosting provider. On the same page it says that Jia Tan became co-maintainer of xz in 2022. 0: https://tukaa

Ethereum and Bitcoin are really the only coins that suffer from congestion from time to time leading to high transaction costs. This is more apparent on Eth where contract interactions can lead to those high +$20 transaction costs, thats wh

That message was from Martti Malmi to Satoshi.

I looked in to it a while back and IIRC the domain provider accepted cash payments via mail so Satoshi's real identity likely wasn't tied to it in any way.

In cases like this it is really easy to tell since the whole thing appears to have been some exchange website where you traded dollars for the supposed crypto coin but there was no way of taking those coins out (because the blockchain and c

It does work with the API as well. I tried a few things, gpt4 turbo preview (which ChatGPT4 is currently using?) outputs "Follow Riley Goodside." if the initial message is sent as system[1] but not if the initial message is sent a

It is just the way it is. Once a bank asks you for details about a transaction you pretty much have to or you're in for a major inconvenience. My understanding is that the process is partly randomized, meaning that they could ask for d

The indictment[1] mentions that he used a VPN. Given how they seem to have gotten his search history from multiple months he probably made the queries using his google account. I didn't find any mention of what got him caught but I wou

Higher Hylkäys-% = more failed inspections. It translates to "disqualification-%". So for example in the 2022 data the worst car was 2009 Dodge Caliber with only about a third out of 171 cars passing the inspection.

I guess those captures from 2020-2023 are 302s or blank pages because google+ had already shut down. There are more working captures before that. For Linus Torvald's google+ this capture was one of the last and it was made by archivete

At least passwords and cookies are encrypted with DPAPI on windows. Stealers get around it by simply decrypting the vault on the victim's machine and sending the unencrypted credentials back to attacker.
