IT Ops: "Why is this Windows setting gray'd out?"

Me: "It's insecure we can't... Actually, I jumped ahead. Why does the user know this option exists? What is the problem they are trying to solve by changing it?"

IT Ops: "Actually we don't know."

This is why they pay me.

Cloudflare previous CTO sent this into our bug bounty. We are investigating.

did you know your samsung tv has a service called rmdemon (that's not a typo, demon not daemon) that starts a PACKET LOGGER on your network.

what possible legitimate use case could there be here, samsung?

SORRY IF THIS OFFENDS GROCERY EXECUTIVES, BUT I’M DONE.

I just pulled a $4.99 box of cereal off the shelf, brought it to the register, and watched the scanner ring it up as $7.49.

When I told the cashier, she said: "Oh, that’s the digital coupon price. You have to download our store app, create an account, search for the item, and clip the digital coupon before scanning."

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

You inflated the shelf price by 50%, locked the normal price behind an app, and forced me to hand over my personal phone data and email just to pay the actual retail value of a box of food?

Stop hiding basic shelf pricing behind data-harvesting apps.

It wouldn't matter if it was 0.01% of your business, a fuck up like that is a canary in the coal mine. If this is what people know is completely busted what else did you do wrong and are now trying to fix as quickly as possible before some internet sleuth finds.

@SwitchRadar Totk. Botw was simpler and better. TotK distracted me too much and I hate the building entirely

Ozai was never meant to be a sympathetic villain....he was the embodiment of imperialist fascism. The actual character complexity in ATLA came from Zuko, Azula, and Iroh. People confuse "simple evil" with bad writing.

People calling Samurai Jack racist when the entire show is about him finding common ground with people from all walks of life.

WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners.

Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads.

Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was.
Got a root shell.

then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems.

This isn’t a bug, It’s the product bro.

Removed all of the samsung spyware from my TV with Codex (Claude refused to root the tv lol)

It's insane how much bloat samsung packs into their TVs to track you and sell your data. Here's just some of what I turned off that made my tv 3x faster:

- screenshot your screen a few times a second to see what you're streaming and fingerprint you to sell your data
- reading your hdmi inputs to do the same thing while you have a game console plugged in
- Voice assistants: Bixby wake-word detectors listening and tracking what you say in your house

Before and after speed of my TV:
