good evening,

you're listening to the ADHD Internal Monologue F.M. with me, DJ subconscious,

speaking all your thoughts,

non-stop,

uninterrupted,

24 hours a day,

from classics like "why did i say that?",

and goldest oldies like "am i a horrible person?"

to today's hottest hits,

"what the hell am i doing with my life?"

and "am i hungry or am i bored?"

stay tuned,

24/7,

ADHD radio.

long, research, raid shadow legends (pc) privesc 0day (lol) 

going to reverse plarium play (basically a required client for raid shadow legends)

...and their service running as SYSTEM appears to just give privesc by design, kinda?

it does IPC via localhost TCP socket with lots of memecrypto involved (salted SHA512 hash, where the salt is stored in the registry crypted by AES-CBC with hardcoded key and IV, and protocol messages are also AES-CBC crypted with a different hardcoded key + IV too)

when running a file, files are allowlisted by server-side check of sha512 hash, but there's a race condition and a path traversal, so you can place an allowed file there, tell the service to run it with whatever args, wait for it to read the file and then replace it...

alternatively you can make a download and install request, using the path traversal to replace a service binary or whatever, it'll write the file out as SYSTEM after all

and yes i just dropped a 0day but on the bright side i just gave everyone a reason to uninstall raid shadow legends on pc so...

each morning at the print shop I work at we all gather in a circle and slice open a print cartridge as an offering to the gods of ink and paper. then we chant the nine stanzas of the printers' ceremonial oath before turning on all the machines for the day.

Ah yes, tell me more about how your browser extension malware that quietly sends all of your visited URLs to a server along with a device ID, is "GDPR compliant"

Things are pretty bleak these days. I have curated my TL pretty tightly but the bad news is still unrelenting.

This is maybe a good time to remind folks YOU are the algorithm.

Instead of amplifying outrage (and there is plenty to be mad about, I get it. Holy fuck I get it) consider prioritizing the boosting of: resources, solutions, hope, even humour, and definitely anything that celebrates folks stepping up to make things better.

Huh. So apparently those battery-powered trains that Stadler were testing in Germany last year, are destined for Merseyrail. Which is interesting, I didn't realize it'd gotten beyond the proof-of-concept stage already!

having ADHD is rapidly oscillating between wanting to do 37 different things all at the same time and wanting to do absolutely nothing

Cannabis should be legal, all convictions for possession expunged, and all opportunities for legal licensure offered to the most harmed and marginalized, first.

But until then, here's a portal to get your fed-level simple possession convictions pardoned:

I'm looking for a contract + relocation outside of my country before Jan 2024.

My skillset revolves around programming (bit over a year of professional experience, bit over 4 years of personal experience), and a little bit of devops. But really, I'm willing to wash dishes if it means I can leave for good. I have enough money to kickstart my stay in any country, it's at least double the usual amount required by work visas I looked at.

It's not safe for people like me to stay here, I've been laying low for years to avoid harm (either by the govt or my social circle), and it's really starting to get to me. One by one, people who are close to me are showing signs of being unsafe. I can't be myself around so many of the people I would've normally run to in case of trouble. It's a crushing feeling.

If 2023 passes, I'll be stuck (legally speaking) and denied travel until I reach the age of 30 (2028). I don't want to imagine living this life for another 5 years.

Feel free to DM for details on the legal part, on my experience & skills, or anything else. My legal record is spotless, not even a parking ticket, this is just how my country operates.
I don't want to say more details publicly—this already narrows down on me more than I'm comfortable with, but time is running out and I'm grasping at straws.

I kinda have an itch to resurrect my old community platform thing project, that lets people create their own 'community' with a forum and photo gallery and articles and stuff, but that lets you use HTML and design customizations etc.

This is something I built back in 2009 or thereabouts, but unfortunately it went under due to personal issues :(

And I've kinda felt like it wouldn't be worth resurrecting because social media have moved on (though admittedly even back then it was an outlier), but lately I've been reconsidering that... maybe there *is* a place for that sort of thing?

Wow. Avast, AVG, Avira, CCleaner, LifeLock, and Norton are now apparently all owned by *the same company*.

alt text should answer the questions "what the hell is this" and "why the hell are you showing me this"

So yeah, all those people calling for "reform" and "change from the inside" and "work within the system to improve it"? *This* is what that leads to, and why we do not care for reforms - all it ended up doing was laundering Facebook's reputation

abortion, facebook 

Actually, as a bit of backstory for those who weren't there for this: Stamos, as the newly hired CSO, was the Weirdly Defensive Nerd jumping in front of Facebook to defend it from public criticism about how Facebook was a danger to privacy and safety.

He was insistent that there was nothing fundamentally wrong with Facebook, it just needed the right person to safeguard that safety, and the people criticizing Facebook were just alarmists/extremists (paraphrased, it's been a few years).

And well, here we are, this is what you get, an unavoidable megacorp snitching on people who are trying to get an abortion

I sure wonder what Alex Stamos and friends have to say now about how Facebook isn't evil, and how it's very important to shore up privacy from the inside

Hey all, I'm looking to get a weighted blanket, and I have no idea where to start.
Does anyone, anyone at all, have resources for buying from a good reputable seller?
I'm in Texas, if shipping is a thing to keep in mind.
Please boost! :boost_ok:
