    Windows 11 Pro - $29.97

    They can be significantly cheaper, especially with Microsoft partner programs. Individual licenses are 20% cheaper alone in India. There's also tons of corporate & education program discounts for the 3rd world that gets milked. What they do is sign up for subscriptions where they get 10 or 100...

    Windows 11 Pro - $29.97

    Gray market scam keys.. they buy keys from 3rd world regions where they're much cheaper, then resell them illegally / against the ToS/EULA. Every so often Microsoft does region matching and purges keys used outside of regions they aren't supposed to be reporting from. This is why the sites often...

    MSI Monitor Cheats for You

    I2C is used for digital non-video communication on monitors (in the AUX channel on DisplayPort). Technically you could interface that with software to make an aimbot with AI player detection which tells the mouse to aim/click on the hitboxes. It doesn't need to be high bandwidth, just a simple...

    MSI Monitor Cheats for You

    Looks like an opportunity to make a hardware EDID obfuscation chain device so it appears as a Dell 3007WFP. kek

    Twitch streaming lays off 500 staffers

    If I had to guess, the 500 staffers mostly just played foosball and drank oat milk lattes when they could be bothered to show up for work. But hey, learn2code.

    Such a good brand. Just picked up a [used] SCSI version not too long ago for my A2000.

    "Triangulation" infected dozens of iPhones belonging to employees of Moscow-based Kaspersky

    So, fun story time. I have a coworker who was in the military about 10 years ago and he did electronic/cyber warfare support in the field -- this was in Iraq/Afghanistan and several other middle eastern countries. There would be a request for high priority terrorist targets they were looking...

    "Triangulation" infected dozens of iPhones belonging to employees of Moscow-based Kaspersky

    Plenty more that are not known by the public. The intentional zero days are patched when discovered by the 3rd party, or when they've served their purpose for use and could be exposed/used by adversaries.

    "Triangulation" infected dozens of iPhones belonging to employees of Moscow-based Kaspersky

    Looks like just the mere act of receiving the file, because it automatically parses the file when received. The TTF exploit then begins the chain of events.

    "Triangulation" infected dozens of iPhones belonging to employees of Moscow-based Kaspersky

    Man are they dense. Insiders, that's how. China, Russia, USA, etc.. they all have spies within the companies who make the hardware and software. Actual engineers with a dual role. One, to work for the company as a normal employee to make the greatest most technologically advanced products on...

    Comcast breached

    Yep.. I ditched Commiecast early this year since AT&T Fiber finally got installed through my backyard. I was waiting for almost 10 years for them to run it since the initial "Fiber is coming" door flyer from AT&T. I don't really like AT&T either, but they're 100x better than Comcast so far. At...

    Macrium Reflect free alternative & cloning issue

    Sorry for the late bump, but I saw this was unanswered. I use Rescuezilla. It is like Clonezilla, but more GUI based and easier to do what you need with a few simple clicks.
