afaict only if a specific hardware vulnerability was found and they cross-linked it with an online account or other network info to try and exploit it.

Or, I guess you could just assume Windows and go with one of the many zero-days that happen there. The trick is still crosslinking them tho. Presumably google has the wifi info.

Dell responds to return-to-office resistance with VPN, badge tracking, and color-coding of employees ( arstechnica.com )

After reversing its position on remote work, Dell is reportedly implementing new tracking techniques on May 13 to ensure its workers are following the company's return-to-office (RTO) policy, The Register reported today, citing anonymous sources....

Remote work is not right for ALL companies. Just ones that are completely or predominantly software-based.

Breakfast cereal manufacturing - hey. Someone's gotta be there to close up all the boxes.

I forget - does Dell make breakfast cereal?

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year ( www.billboard.com )

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

Triple Banned? That’s a paddlin’.

Yes and it’s very well done which is why 121 people who didn’t get it downvoted it. ha! No good comment, amirite.

Why does it say Telegram, but it's about the Twitter/Bluesky guy?

Actually, nevermind. It's just confusing.

Y'know it's not the cat's fault you're a slow learner ;)

Y'know, cable management issues aside (haters to the left, please, thank you) you could zush it up a little for cat. Something fluffy but still lets the heat happen maybe? Perhaps some ornamental catnip plant to the side?

How do you store your grounded coffee? ( slrpnk.net )

Hiya, just quickly wondering how people store their coffee? Mine is in a tin box I got second hand, cos I thought it looked nice. Any rules regarding storing grounded coffee? I don't store much at the time, it's just if I grind a little too much and what not. I'm assuming the general thumb rule for this is to store it in a...

Only the rich kids had that. The baseball was awesome though.

Right? Like this guy was a prophet. Uh, one of those prophets who appear, y’know, after all the stuff happens.

Hahaha - no, that’s just the little clippy bit at the end of the cable. The cable’s extra.

Why Your VPN May Not Be As Secure As It Claims ( krebsonsecurity.com )

Virtual private networking (VPN) companies market their services as a way to prevent anyone from snooping on your Internet usage. But new research suggests this is a dangerous assumption when connecting to a VPN via an untrusted network, because attackers on the same network could force a target’s traffic off of the protection...

MITIGATIONS

According to Leviathan, there are several ways to minimize the threat from rogue DHCP servers on an unsecured network. One is using a device powered by the Android operating system, which apparently ignores DHCP option 121.

Relying on a temporary wireless hotspot controlled by a cellular device you own also effectively blocks this attack.

“They create a password-locked LAN with automatic network address translation,” the researchers wrote of cellular hot-spots. “Because this network is completely controlled by the cellular device and requires a password, an attacker should not have local network access.”

Leviathan’s Moratti said another mitigation is to run your VPN from inside of a virtual machine (VM) — like Parallels, VMware or VirtualBox. VPNs run inside of a VM are not vulnerable to this attack, Moratti said, provided they are not run in “bridged mode,” which causes the VM to replicate another node on the network.

Are you threatening me?!

Hmhm heh hm. Yeah. Hmhehe. Hm.

there are no ways to prevent such attacks except when the user's VPN runs on Linux or Android.

So what if we let a dumbass run google and drive it into the ground? Potentially short term gains!! YES! Let's do that.

"However, in 2024, I do believe it’s well past time to Elon to step aside. The lack of focus on the core business is hurting the company’s long-term prospects, especially in China, where there is a huge amount of competition, and those companies are redesigning products every two years," Abuelsamid said.

. . . Just don't expect it to happen. "Unfortunately, Tesla has effectively no corporate governance from its board full of Musk cronies, and he will never acknowledge when he has made a mistake and will thus not step aside," Abuelsamid said.

Death it is, then.

Right! Like he knows the jig is up so he’s pulling out all his capital now to let the memestock fanbois take the fall. God forbid anyone rich ever suffer consequences.

You mean the company that hired Condoleezza Rice screwed something up? Nooooooooo. Not possible. Maybe the US should invade and find out what they did wrong.

homesweethomeMrL ,

Lol - who’s downvoting this? We got some Big Condi fans here?

Friendly reminder the "block user" function is available on all your favorite platforms. Much like we had to invest the time in filtering mail back in the day, so do we have to do the same for comment threads now.

homesweethomeMrL ,

Oh, agreed. Just pointing it out as a tool-in-the-toolbox kind of way. Like, not going to reddit = less fascism now (apparently).
