https://botland.store/ has “shipping all across the EU” in the top banner

FWIW, in my feeds that is on the same level as it was for some time now

I swear, this guy is all over the place. I’m very curious as what he will end up

I was hoping it would behave like a hashtag when you view it via mastodon instance. AFAIK so far link aggregation fediverse doesn’t really interact with hashtags fluently. Even on *bin it is like a separate thing

The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic Earth where dimensional rifts have torn open, bringing magic, monsters, and alien technology to the planet. This fusion of genres allows players to encounter everything from high-tech cyborgs and vampires to dragons and ancient deities. Rifts offers an unprecedented amount of flexibility for creating characters and stories. You can be anything from a power-armored soldier to a mystic who commands the forces of magic, or even a dimensional traveler with access to alien technologies.

Oooh. Can’t wait to test this out

Why would that be cumbersome? I mean, what " flow" could use some refinement?

they already have working builds internally and the only reason they haven’t release them was supposedly wait for a complete Vulkan implementation

I’m afraid we, in general, are not told the truth but whatever can pass as truth

I’m not sure I exactly grasp what you mean. But if I do, I’d do it like this

Create file projects/x/item1/subitem1/subsubitem1
Inside add a header on top with a ref to date of work

# [[2025/07/03]]  
* that way when you open the file, you see the most recent note  

# [[2025/07/02]]  
* bar  

# [[2025/07/01]]  
* foo  

That way, using hierarchy and references parts of 2025/07 or projects/x you can see what you were working on in that month or how did the whole flow for an item go

Does that address your issue?

Then how would they sell access in a deniable way?

Uh

Ah. Yeah, nuke it from orbit. Since this was RAT, so it had local execution powers and the attackers knew exactly which distro they are targetting, they could have used some security vulnerability to get root and even replace the kernel in worst case. Hopefully not microcode insertion, so hardware could be ok

But then, it wasn’t an attack on an existing package. So the question is how many people did actually download those

Ah, you mean for fediverse to work as an LDAP?

My point is Let’s imagine we have a board on some instance. You use your account on another instance to ask the owner of the board to give you access to the board. The contents of the board are, IMO in most cases of such boards, “members only”. So any changes happening inside should not be sent out to federating instances. Otherwise, privacy of such boards would be at the mercy of privacy of other instances. If restricted changes were sent out, technically speaking, any server it federates to can choose to show that content to everyone. Which means you won’t be able to access the contents via any other instance. Apart from the logging in part, you will still need to go to the instance hosting the board. Unless it would be for publicly accessible boards only, like codeberg issues. That use-case could work

It’s all spiraling out of control

Beam me up, Scotty!

curl looks fine too

Hm. I just clicked it in Firefox and got a response JSON. A good response

So, a guy sheds some light on what’s going on, the accused name drops him, so now the guy has to be protected. Whatever he could have caught on during the trials, he is no longer in position to keep his ear to the ground. It seems the protection, while successfully did manage to protect him - which is good, in a way also worked as a blocker so he doesn’t do more damage during time critical for the group

It was AUR. The way AUR works is that there is a PKGBUILD file that tells pacman how to compile a package from scratch. It can be created in a way where nothing gets compiled, only precompiled binary is downloaded (like from github releases). So it was not a package in purely Arch sense. With those PKGBUILDs out from AUR, malicious binaries only sit on their github, or wherever those were hosted, and are not reachable via alternative package managers (pacman, the official one, doesn’t offer AUR at all)

Yes, but that was in the OP. Maybe normal disk is not feasible for some reason
