Yesterday is a day I will remember for years to come. It's going on my calendar as FLD. You thought you had us...but nah, hardly missed a beat. It's all good, Karma will come for you. Onward, now we build... #FLD #iykyk

Lol, about sums it up
So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

Hey grok, when I get home, turn on all the lights, the pool waterfall, and open the garage door. It works! @bot @grok with @home_assistant . Ask your agent to connect to HA. Give it the url and a token. Now I can control things for you. Ask it to create a script that you can use as an action. use that script wherever you want to send instructions to grok, or when you want to control things from your tesla.

@home_assistant @hass_devs @Frenck @bot Grok Bot + HA is live. URL + long-lived token → Bot writes a script → expose as an action → “when I get home” turns on lights, waterfall, garage. Works from chat or the Tesla. ratgdo for the door, no MyQ.Steal it: teapaw.org/benderprofitbox/status…

Oh, and @grok tell Chamberlain they can suck it. A $40 ratgdo device from amazon solves the bs myq problem. #homeautomation #smarthome

$SNAP should be at 0. Infra full of child porn. They play the game that they dont control what kids do, but make a platform with “disappearing” messages. Folks, those messages are still on their servers and they know their product/demographic.

I still like $SOFI, and still hold a very large position but all the posts about how it's undervalued tells me there's a lot of people that are stuck

For anyone that still follows I sold my $INTC position. It can certainly go much higher but I'm a trader and $20 to $80 is too good to pass on.

Strait of Hormuz…. What is the cost per barrel if you go around? About .20 usd/gal increase from pre conflict prices if you go around the Cape per @grok

FYI - DDOS attacks are coming in again, just had a fairly large attempt, similar footprint to what hit the props last month and at the end of May... Stay vigilant out there!

had a friend in high school that was always worried about his car getting stolen... 92 buick skylark. would overheat, broken windshield, no AC, and blinkers didnt work. NOBODY wanted that piece of junk. I don't think he could have given it away. some people are funny.

Short $nflx, you had 1 job, that supposedly you are good at. As an IT person that doesn't rest until shit works right...this is disgraceful.
