Consider it a 'cost of doing business'. Everyone gets DDoSed, I'm pretty sure that's one of CloudFronts primary service-based solutions

You'll also have to prove the IOT device DDoSing from my IP isn't a rogue device. I swear it's not mine.

Can't wait to tell Gran she's legally liable for a DDoS because her unsecured IOT washing machine best buy sold her caused the internet to cave in ;)

I found that really informal comments cut less deep 'hey man this needs double checking, read up on $x and then reconsider this block' (gender aside) is far better received than 'This is missing fundamental concepts around $x

I still don't understand why services don't attempt to bundle more. All my media is pirated, which conveniently ends up in a single app. I'd probably consider a $10-15/AUD streaming service if it included all the music

Yes, but is the content the same content that Janet keeps raving about (and plot-spoiling) by the water cooler?

I'll also point out that defending against buffer overflows which are considered vulnerabilities is a far saner boundary than a blacklist of files which grows infinitely.

Or we could, you know, just stop using Microsoft Office and Adobe products which are a huge, if not the biggest culprit of that kind of crazy behaviour.

There's lots of 'Do we need Kaspersky' type questions in here already. The more pertinent question is whether AV is actually effective, or if stronger countermeasures like application whitelisting are needed? https:/&#x

I really like mac keybindings. However, I really dislike how if I click what is traditionally the maximize button, it doesn't maximize both horizontally and vertically. I also really dislike how if I use the fullscreen mode and then

As soon as people stop treating the physical layer as a security control, the better. Encrypt your damn comms.

And if you do manage, it's granting the ability to intercept/modify traffic, right? If so, this won't lead to RCE on a host mobile unless other exploits are used. There's probably some interesting stuff that can be done

That's for unencrypted credentials captured going across the wire by the ops team. That's to highlight insecure comms not hack people. There was an instance where someone used a wifi pineapple 0day to brick pineapples, which are

This isn't even a service request, it's a bug report. Are you able to name a reputable email provider which isn't >$60/year or self-managed? My 65 year old mother probably wouldn't be interested in either of thos

For those looking for obscure-but-useful, checkout xdotool. `sleep 2; xdotool type "foo"` is super handy for typing passwords into virtual machines which don't support guest additions. I'd rather not elaborate on the fil

At the nosebleeds, poker hasn't been around those things in a long time. Poker is about exploitative play against people who base their play off emotions, and unperfect game theory optimal against players who don't base their play

No, it's to mask actions. If you bet big with monsters and check with air 100% of the time, you opponent knows when to fold and bet. iirc, the frequency of bets in that spot is roughly equivalent to the frequency of times you're d

What if the owner and rentee were in kahootz? Or the owner just decides to report the the rentee has stolen the item? Maybe the latter is covered by business logic, maybe not.
