@freemo @stux Ironically, a similar provision was made for the Jews when Haman obtained a decree allowing their extermination. Esther 8
"By these letters the king permitted the Jews in each and every city the right to assemble and defend themselves, to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the forces of any people or province hostile to them, including women and children, and to plunder their possessions. The single day appointed throughout all the provinces of King Xerxes was the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar."
The decree to allow their extermination could not be revoked. But the additional decree gave official permission for the Jews to arm and defend themselves.

@stux The people who praise replacing one gun death with 10 knife deaths by making guns illegal are the same people who never stood up to people doing evil who were capable and willing to kill you.
When you are the one people are trying to kill your opinion on guns changes real quick. I certainly never bothered owning a gun before then. Now I open-carry with a license.

Heya everyone, I thought I posted this here last night, but apparently I didn't..
I regret to inform you that the Screen Shot Off The Record plugin that we linked to briefly was found to have a key logger and was sending screen shots to unwanted parties.
So if you have this plugin installed, you will want to remove it immediately.
You can see our official post about this at https://pidgin.im/posts/2024-08-malicious-plugin/
We are planning a more indepth post in the near future.
@pidgin You did post last night. I replied that ss-otr was an appropriate name - as it stands for Social Security On The Record in a US govt context.
@j0hnnyxm4s @pidgin @grimmy The plugin, ss-otr, was aptly named. This acronym refers to "Social Security On The Record" decisions by courts in a totally different context.

Did some malware reversing for the community this week in response to someone attempting to SE a malicious plugin into @pidgin a major open-source project. The project maintainer ( @grimmy) was very quick to respond, pulling security folks in immediately
Additionally, this led to the furtherance of their transparency policy, requiring all code for all plugins to be open-sourced for community review.
Supply Chain Attacks come from all angles, including code you don't compile or distribute, but users may still install and taint the reputation of your application.

AJ warns Elon.
Tweet quote: @Elon you should get to your bunker immediate, this is a live coup.
@fedora It's a no brainer for people that mostly use their browser. Question to ask: Is there a proprietary app they must have? E.g. I use Windows Tax Prep software (and don't want to use the web version). But I run it in a virtual machine. Similarly, updating a Garmin passive GPS is a proprietary Windows app.
The user needs to be able to handle whatever is necessary for these proprietary exceptions.
