@vxunderground There has to be a zero day associated with this.

BREAKING: MICROSOFT ANNOUNCES YOU CAN SOON MOVE THE TASK BAR TO ANY SIDE OF THE SCREEN THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE EVERYONE FREAK THE FUCK OUT

@real_EBS_ ICE needs to head to Key West.

HOLY F'CK 🔥 ICE agts show up unannounced to a construction site in Orlando Florida and arrested (33) illegals, those who didn't have legal ID were fingerprinted on site ICE went to local businesses warning of consequences for hiring any illegals HOW BOUT A HELL YEAH FOR ICE

@TFTC21 If more people used prescribed burning as a land management tool there would be fewer ticks.

A peer-reviewed paper published last year in the journal Bioethics by two professors at Western Michigan University School of Medicine argues that it is "morally obligatory" to genetically engineer ticks to spread alpha-gal syndrome, a permanent condition that makes you violently allergic to red meat. The paper is called "Beneficial Bloodsucking." Their argument: if eating meat is morally wrong, then preventing the spread of a disease that forces people to stop eating meat is also morally wrong. Scientists should gene-edit lone star ticks to enhance their ability to carry alpha-gal syndrome and expand their range into urban environments to infect more people. They call this a "moral bioenhancer." They frame releasing genetically modified disease-carrying ticks as a "vaccination" that only "infringes" on your bodily autonomy rather than "violating" it. The distinction, apparently, is that a tick bit you instead of a government official holding you down. Alpha-gal syndrome is not mild. The CDC estimates up to 450,000 Americans are already affected. Cases have surged 100-fold in the last decade. Symptoms include anaphylaxis. There is no cure. Alpha-gal cases are exploding across the United States. The lone star tick's range is expanding far beyond its historical territory. And two academics at a medical school published a paper arguing this is a good thing that should be accelerated. At what point do we stop treating papers like this as fringe academic exercises and start asking whether anyone is already acting on them?

On Ivanti being "aware" of in-the-wild 0day exploitation

@vxunderground I hear the learing centers are unaffected. 😆

It appears the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation may be relatively unhappy with the recent disruption of Canvas

@cyb3rops AI CEO are 100% right 50% of the time.

I think many executives currently look at AI-generated software and think: "Wow. It's already 90% there." What they often underestimate is that the remaining 10% is not 10% of the work. A senior developer reviewing a 5,000-line AI-generated pull request often has to spend hours just understanding the architectural choices, hidden assumptions and how all the pieces fit together. At that point you're no longer "adding a few fixes". You're reverse-engineering a codebase that appeared out of nowhere in five minutes. And many senior developers absolutely hate that kind of work. Most don't want to become full-time reviewers of machine-generated spaghetti while spending their days writing specifications and documentation for an AI instead of building software themselves. AI is extremely good at creating the impression that we're "almost there". But "almost there" can still hide enormous amounts of engineering, maintenance and human responsibility underneath.

I don't know how many more examples we need of CEOs making idiotic statements about AI in public and then their product going pear-shaped a few days later before we realize that we should probably hold some sort of collective intervention.

@theonejvo Pet rock

Boys, load up the Facebook ads account, we're making bank on some boomers this month.

@HillValleyForum Lehman was secretary of the Navy.

"Tom Cruise had only done one movie, Risky Business, but he was already a cultural phenomenon." Top Gun producer Chad Oman on how Jerry Bruckheimer and Tom Cruise convinced the Navy to make Top Gun: "The Navy said no. There's no chance they will ever support the making of a movie about Top Gun pilots." "Jerry found a way to get a meeting with John Lehman, Secretary of Defense under Reagan, and took Tom Cruise with him. Lehman said, 'I get it. I know what you're trying to do, and I see how this could be great for the Navy.'" 36 years later, they went back to make Maverick: "All the guys in charge of the Navy — almost every single one of them had joined the Navy because they saw the first movie."

@TalosSecurity I enjoy Talos videos and Beers with Talos. How is it that Cisco has Talos, but Cisco products produce such a large number of high scoring CVEs?

When vulnerabilities are weaponized in minutes, speed is just the beginning. The latest TTP lays out the new reality of cyber threats and how to stay ahead: cs.co/6015B6LyTZ

@ryanaraine Don’t forget Cisco.

Damn, we didn't even include Ivanti and Fortinet in the Claude Mythos Preview 🤕😏

@birdabo I'd poly every user monthly as a hedge against insider threats.

@lukOlejnik We've had some high profile insider attacks at major cyber companies during the past year. I think there is a real chance we could see someone at one of the twelve companies take advantage of Mythos access.

Are we reaching the point at which a single private company may begin to see and understand cyber offense and defense across the world faster than states, vendors, operators, and the users of those systems? That is a great deal of power. Anthropic now may have a unique position and appears to possess a unique instrument. It may be able to detect security vulnerabilities at scale across civilian, public, and military systems, and to some extent across closed or classified environments wherever code, binaries, firmware, access can be obtained. In open source software almost certainly. In closed systems, probably now or very soon (. The system does not just identify a vulnerability and describe it. It can turn it into a real means of exploitation. An exploit. Something that can be used as an instrument of cyberattack. This is a change in scale. Qualitative and quantitative. The same capability can serve both defense and attack. If it is used defensively first, some of those vulnerabilities may never become available for offensive use. But that same capability gives a private company real influence over the balance of power, the tempo of vulnerability disclosure, and the security of the infrastructure on which states, institutions, and companies depend. This assessment may evolve. But we may already be looking at AI as a new centre of infrastructural power. THIS IS NOT just about technical cybersecurity. We’re speaking about real, strategic power.

@starsandstripes Waiting for admin or supply types to mess this up for everyone.

A Pentagon memo directs base commanders to allow service members to request permission to carry their personal firearms and calls for a “presumption of approval” of requests. stripes.com/theaters/us/20…

🚨#BREAKING: Crews on the Artemis II mission are reporting that the onboard toilet is broken again with a frozen vent believed to be the cause of the latest malfunction.

@skooks NOLA’s decline is the result of sloth related to all of the handouts/fraud, lack of accountability in the courts, and public corruption.

In many respects this is a Bobby Jindal legacy. But there are other villains at work. Mostly I would say the degradation of UNO is a micro story of how the whole city has been allowed to rot away since Katrina wwltv.com/article/news/l…

@TheSaviour The flag and general officer corps is still bloated.

@WIRED @a_greenberg I liked Wired better when it was apolitical. Shame it has lost its objectivity.

A WIRED analysis of DHS records identified dozens of specialized federal agents who used force against US civilians during the largest known deployment of its kind in US history. wired.com/story/border-p…

@johnrich I usually do a backing fire at the top of a slope. A head fire at the bottom of a slope can get away from you.

“I said the woods, the woods, the woods are on FighErr…we don’t need no water let that…🔥” Did a little land maintenance today:)

I'll be releasing 2 episodes of Darknet Diaries this month, instead of the normal 1 per month.
