@BrodieOnLinux wasn’t the “doesn’t print on Tuesdays” bug also reported on Ubuntu forums/trackers? Hard to beat that one.

Patch for the vulnerability in bloat that allows a malicious upstream server (Pleroma/Mastadon) to return crafted JSON data in the response of an API called by bloat to make it go out of memory and cause Denial of Service.
The attack could be performed by a malicious user by connecting to a malicious server. Technically, it doesn't have to be a Mastodon compatible server, any HTTP server that'd respond to the HTTP paths requested by bloat could work.
bloat instances running in the single instance mode are not affected assuming the specified instance doesn't serve the malicious response.
The patch applies a limit on the size of the response returned by the server, currently set to 8MiB.

@All_bonesJones @Edge @supersid333 @fishsticks @zero my first real encounter with yu-gi-oh was from this video that I heartily recommend to everyone, thought about it immediately when I saw that meme.

@dave weird post. N. Korea supplies arms to Russia, btw US recently warned S. Korea not to supply arms to Russia. Ok? They’re kinda diametrically opposed to each other. Did he mean that they warned N. Korea in which case lolz good luck with that?

@Pashhur @foone Haha, imagine a post-apocalyptic world where everyone navigates by the different error codes, distress beacons, radioactive remnants. Nobody knows what 500 Internal Server Error means but by precisely timing it you can know how far you are from Belgium.

Every YouTube video is either "all of science and the entire history of the world explained (5:41)" or "how player two's controller inputs are processed on level six of this japan-only game boy advance game that was only available free with a particular brand of cereal for two weeks in one store (2:37:21)"

jack dorsey deleted his bluesky account, lol

(for anyone who hasn't been following, he's expressed a strong favour of nostr in the past, and is distancing himself from bluesky)

I know I'm a day late on the latest techdrama, but I forgot to give my crunkly hot take on the Unity pricing update (as a thoughtfluencer).

PROPRIETARY FAGS BTFO. My personal favorite part is in their Q&A they say that "WebGL" counts, but without being any more specific that that. This means in the worst interpretation every single time someone refreshes your webapp you can be charged up to 20 US cents.

How else do you count a WASM/WebGL "installation", you don't install it, it just loads directly into the browser.

A game that asks an important question: "What if Myst was bad, and all puzzles relied exclusively on looking stuff up in the Bible?" 🤔

@foone the rubber ducky method is truly too powerful

@piotrsikora @mgorny jestem pewien, że pokazywanie linuxa w szkołach w wykonaniu naszych niekompetentnych nauczycieli wiele w tej kwestii zmieni.

@piotrsikora @mgorny może to i lepiej, polskim szkołom już udaje się zniechęcać ludzi do czytania, znajomości historii, nauk ścisłych, sztuki, ćwiczeń na świeżym powietrzu… jakby tam dać linuxa to poczyniłoby to więcej szkód na jego wizerunku niż cokolwiek co MS może odpierdzielić xD
