@Zennistrad Honestly I wonder if I should go back and do that for the other fics too, but I feel like that's taking away some of the fun :'D

@Zennistrad Hyyyyyyype!

Someone was asking if I could post Yuka's descrambled dialogue for the past chapter, would you be okay with that?

Nasa are currently working to fix a computer error aboard Voyager 1. The probe's computer system runs at around 8000 instructions per second and has about 68kB of memory. Due to the interplanetary distances involved, even at light speed it takes 45 hours to send a signal and get a response. When asked about the unique challenges this poses, an engineer said "that's actually about average for a modern CI system".

I think at a baseline, we shouldn't be building critical official packages for distribution from release tarballs. A huge part of this was the tarball didn't match the repo and since we're talking a compression library, compressed archives shipped for "testing" concealed the payload.

Official builds should pull source and build/test scripts generate testing data in an auditable way rather than just trusting a tarball containing blobs.

@trysdyn Even the fact that arch wasn't targeted doesn't mean shit--this was aimed at distributions targeting servers all the way up to the enterprise level. This would've cracked open the internet with a hammer.

Anyway the entire ops/dev world just dodged (we think/hope we dodged, anyway but are not 100% sure) the biggest supply chain attack in history that would have screwed absolutely, literally, everyone.

This needs a giant f**king industry-wide post-mortem once we're sure we're not all doomed.
