@spendergrsec apologies as this is well outside my area of expertise - is the exploiting process being able to call a (presumably suid) process a necessary part of the exploit, or just to make it easier to generate the race? i.e. can this method try to read from files ANY arbitary process has?

@on_lothianbuses much kudos to the driver of bus 88 on the service 30 to QMU right now - it's very busy and he's doing a great job making sure people getting off have the time to do so safely and moving standing passengers down the bus to let others on

this one is Carl, he believes he is the leader and extremely terrifying. I believe he is going to be kissed on the face

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@on_lothianbuses Thanks :)

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@on_lothianbuses or alternatively, can you share the timetable for the opposite direction please?

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@on_lothianbuses thanks - do you know if that information is on your website anywhere?

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@on_lothianbuses Well that's odd because I took one to work today!

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@SeargeDP Also - should the definition of "first floor" (ie if the ground floor is 0-indexed) in VA and subtitles follow the convention of the player, or that of the character?

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@kennywhitton @SGNgas @edinburghpaper @trafficscotland @Edinburgh_CC that was certainly the claim https://t.co/Kmz0r5PDPk

"We're aware the road surface at this location on the A7 was recently resurfaced... Please be assured that when our emergency work is completed, we will ensure the road surface is left as we found it."

Fingers crossed 🤞

Do not under any circumstances believe that you will have leftover pizza

@SwiftOnSecurity weirdly enough, without a third-party adblocker I don't see almost any of that in Edge, and I see "please turn off your adblocker" nags from many websites. I do have /tracking prevention/ turned to strict

@nixcraft "ip a" or "ip --br a" for the short version isn't that bad

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@KathrynTewson so much wrong with this

* If they get _any_ contributions from third parties at all, changing the license afterwards becomes difficult
* They want to be "open source" but haven't thought about the kind of license they want? That's not "legal", that's foundational philosophy

[Philip Cass @frymasteruk]

@Salamandar3500 @dtoxmilenko @evilsocket I think the issue is that even if "cups.service" is not enabled e.g. "cups.socket" and "cups.path" often /ARE/, meaning as soon as someone tries to use cups, the service starts
