A lot of devs have abandoned the idea of supporting or using Mac because of Xcode and difficulty cross-compiling.
They diss your mom in a COD lobby. (Happened IRL)
I made a rant post about this same shit.
Sudo is for getting the necessary perms to write the data to the location after the operator. Cat is just super fast, faster than dd infact as it’s not actually intended to write to disks, only to stout. We want as much speed as possible to do as much damage as possible by increasing our chances of trigging bugs.
/dev/urandom provides an unlimited stream of random data, the output is based on truly random data and doesn’t block regardless if the entropy pool is depleted.
It’s not the same as /dev/random which only returns random numbers from the entropy pool at a limited rate and can block if the entropy pool is deplete.
By using /dev/urandom and cat we’re blasting random data at much faster speeds then what /dev/random & dd are capable of which increases our chances of triggering a bug by quite a bit.
It blasts all virtual device files that directly represent the hardware of the system; from disks to audio devices and so on; with extremely random data potentially causing irreversible damage.
sudo cat /dev/urandom > /dev/*
Or
sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda bs=4k conv=notrunc,noerror
P.s. sudo cat /dev/urandom > /dev/*
can cause physical damage to all hardware components, not just destroy your drives data.
sudo cat /dev/urandom > /dev/sda*
Those bad actors are really stupid, a VPN isn’t going to protect them. You’re not magically anonymous behind a VPN, and such material is obviously going to attract the attention of very skilled cyber security experts & law enforcements.
Idiots doing crimes never understand basic OpSec.
Not all instances keep logs…
Some intentionally discard them, look into the policys of the instance you’re signing up to.
All your comments and posts are hosted on your parent instance then shared to the federated instances.
Some instances don’t even let you sign up with an email or make it optional.
Lemmy.world keeps logs, but much more controversial instances often don’t.
Also it’s much more complex, because you have to think about the scope of the potential lawsuit as well as the given evidence that a user is actually sharing the material infringing on their copyright; which will not be a large amount of the user base. They can’t simply sue a user for having an account, the user has to actively be sharing infringing material.
Oh. They sued an instance? 😱
Anyway… here’s another 5 hosted in Russia, or a country where piracy is legal, or just don’t give a fuck.
Exactly what I’m saying. It has nothing to do with his mental disorders, it’s purely social influence from the cybercriminal ring and egotism.
He desires to be seen as a legend and the members of Lapsus$ are no doubt going to be praising the hell out of him for pulling off something so audacious.
OP is making it out to be like he has psychopathy or ASPD or some shit, which is not a diagnosis that’s publicly known at this time even if that were the case. I’d rather not make massive generalizations of someone based on something that has 0 backing too.
The only disorder we know he’s diagnosed with is acute autism and nothing else, which just as you said :
It could be something as simple as needing to feel powerful in their space. That’s something a lot of people, autistic or not, can fall prey to
Which is exactly the point I’m making.
Like what? If it’s not something he’s publicly diagnosed with, then how do you know it’s not just main character syndrome? Remember, he’s not a solo act; he’s apart of Lapsus$ and there’s no doubt they helped create his twisted personality.
No. He wants to perform crimes because he fell into the wrong crowd and developed a massive ego.
His acute autism doesn’t predisposed him towards criminal actions.
Windows dev thing.
You could use PiP and Ublock Origins on Firefox Mobile for a long time now.
Is your Ublock Origins & lists updated fully and configured right? Because Ublock Origins is supposed to be blocking the malvertisements from being shown at all.
At least it does for me on Firefox-nightly & Mull.
Nope. You have to use it for MacOS too if you want it to be properly native and integrate fully, without doing it this way you’re putting the Mac version at a disadvantage. It’s why Heartbound only natively supports Windows & Linux. Jason T. Hall (Pirate Software) has never been involved in developing IOS games.
