@YoungbloodJoe@GoDaddy Nothing despicable here. This is an unmanaged VPS. By definition, the provider does not have responsibility. They can't even touch the box because they lack access credentials. Vacation boy should put on his pants back on, ssh into the machine and patch it.
@VessOnSecurity Ondrej Suri has provided patched all PHP versions starting with 5.6 for Ubuntu 22.04 and Ubuntu 24.04. You can migrate the applications to a Ubuntu box. I don't understand the "they are using Windows" argument.
@natmiletic I am sure there will be demand for artisanal coding. And in time, people will get paid substantially more to inspect and (re)write code built by AI. But of course, on a tiny scale. For the rest of us, manual coding will become yet another lost skill like sewing our own clothes.
@RumenRadevPM Неуважаеми г-н Радев, Вие сте най-скопеният министър-председател в съвременната история на България. Всеки ден слушаме от Вас и посредствените Ви питомци кое как не можело и кое как не ставало. Глупците Ви дариха с 131 депутата и пак слушаме ежедневно лъжи и оправдания. Срам сте!
@Lptomov82 Понякога много ми се иска да видя трите вериги да затворят врати за една седмица. Ей така, за демонстрация. Примерно, между Коледа и Нова година. Хем и служителите да си отпочинат малко.
@Taking_Souls72@jeremyct But we do bruh :) Every European country has a social security service (and they are all shot as fuck, except maybe those in Denmark and the Scandinavian countries).
@lordsturm@NicolasDorier@callebtc Yes, until everybody who understands Cobol has long since moved to a nursing home and has lost their mind to dementia. Sounds like a reliable plan for the future!
Also, you are dead wrong about emulation.

@Poly_na_@helloitsmartina Като сам мъж на близо десет петилетки мога да ти кажа най-сериозно, че грешиш. Нямам никакъв проблем с това къде ми стоят чиниите. Ям направо от опаковката на takeout-a.
@0xTib3rius Default PHP version for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS was 7.0 I think. Spin a new Ubuntu 24.04 LTS or 26.04 LTS, add PHP 7.0 to it from https://t.co/OjnFkcNIRL and your app won't know the difference.
@lordsturm@NicolasDorier@callebtc I feel like I am talking to children here. Replacing a 40-year old IBM mainframe with modern hardware should be a relief not an encumbrance shouldn't it?
@lordsturm@NicolasDorier@callebtc Why emulate? You run the old code on the old hardware and rebuild tonrun on modern hardware. Zero need for emulation.
@0gtweet Yes, and the very speed of the reaction after the news broke out yesterday proved it. We had patched version of PHP back to the 7.x branch within hours, although those PHP versions are long since EOL. That would be impossible for anything that isn't open source.
@NicolasDorier@callebtc You could take the 8" floppies, tapes or punch cards with you, get the code from them and pkug it directly into a Claude Code project on your laptop. Obtaining the source code is the only challenge. Feeding it to the AI isn't.
