So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and https://t.co/QlOXb3COq3 went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

The black rifle coffee alpha male takes a sip from his thermos and looks out from the bunker to the battlefield, it’s hell out there. “Perfect” He thinks

He adjusts the sights on his custom-built 16-inch 6mm ARC AR-15 with a Proof Research carbon-fiber barrel, JP Enterprises silent captured spring system, and a Geissele Super Dynamic Enhanced two-stage trigger. He picked it because the trigger felt smooth against his $350 carbon fiber combat gloves, and the alloy magazines were 20 grams lighter against his $2200 Kevlar vest.

He mindlessly feels at his tactical pouch, he has a 10 year supply of testosterone cypionate in it, just in case the pharmacies get hit. He smirks, “Daddy needs his combat fuel.” He’s been on TRT for 7 years, his testes have cobwebs on them.

He steps out of the bunker, he’s spent years training for this moment, doing weighted carries, getting “don’t tread on me” tattoos, bow hunting, having a beard.

“It’s fuckin showtime.” He announces.

Just then he feels something lightly tap his leg. He glances down. It’s a 17 dollar drone off temu. It has a decal on it.

“Is that… hentai?”

His legs are blown smooth off.

12 miles away in a disgusting room illuminated only by the degenerate glow of purple LED strip lighting, a 17 year old leans back in his cum stained gamer chair. He’s grown so frail and sickly his friends and family keep mistaking him for Asmongold.

He grabs another 30mg vyvanse and washes it down with a cold chicken nugget.

“GG faggot”

He’s killed 500 men.

Russian Kosmos 2612 and ICEYE-X36 (providing Ukraine military support) are now in perfect sync with each other. The Russian military satellite is intentionally stalking and tracking the Western radar satellite. Keeping a satellite "bumper-to-bumper" in this manner allows Russia to intercept or jam data transmissions, physically inspect Western technology, or quickly pivot to execute a kinetic or non-kinetic anti-satellite (ASAT) attack with very little warning or fuel expenditure.

Kosmos 2612 executed a series of highly precise, fuel-heavy maneuvers to force itself into a "coplanar" orbit—matching ICEYE-X36's exact altitude (~555 km), speed, and inclination (~97.8°). The ICEYE-X36 satellite is giving the Ukraine military support.

Yes, our president is a russian puppet who is trying to dismantle NATO.

We know.

You know why Trump is president? Because russians absolutely flooded us with disinformation until the average American voted against his own interests. The FSB weaponized our stupid people against us.

It happened to us, just like it happened to Hungary, the UK during Brexit, and soon France. The russians can do this to your country, too. They can exploit this vulnerability anywhere there’s a democracy and a surplus of morons (hint: you probably live in such a place).

So, my question is, why demonize all Americans, even those who support Ukraine, because of what Trump is doing? Knowing that Putin and Trump are trying to divide NATO, why are certain NAFO fellas helping drive that wedge between America and Europe? Why are you doing Putin’s work?

Anti-MAGA Americans are fighting creeping autocracy: with the courts, with protests (that are being censored on social media, BTW), and politically. We’re doing way more than you realize, and we’re putting ourselves in danger to do it. We are also voting on November 3. We could use a little encouragement instead of blame.

Thanks.

Илон Маск все-таки удовлетворил требования и предоставил список акционеров "X Holding Corp", которые помогли миллиардеру купить Твиттер. И как вы думаете, кто же оказался инвесторами платформы X, кроме исламистов и Трамповского лобби? Правильно, Петр Авен и Вадим Мошкович. Теперь абсолютно очевидно, откуда у Маска такая любовь к России и откуда растут ноги у "фильтров" из-за антироссийских публикаций. Напомню, кто такие Авен и Мошкович.

Петр Авен — русский миллиардер, основатель "Альфа-групп", которая является одним из основных кошельков для Путина. Этот человек максимально подконтролен Кремлю, например, в 2018 году он вместе со своим коллегой Фридманом отправился в Вашингтон, чтобы лоббировать от имени российского правительства снятие международных санкций с РФ. Авен — один из самых старых друзей Путина. В целом без вмешательства Петра Путин сидел бы в тюрьме, а не стал президентом. Ведь Авен прикрыл Владимира Путина в 1992 году, когда тот организовал незаконную торговлю экспортными лицензиями. Авен в срочном порядке утвердил его уполномоченным МВЭС с правом внешнеэкономической деятельности, тем самым спасая будущего диктатора от тюрьмы. Также Авен присутствовал на встрече с Путиным 24 февраля 2022 года в честь начала вторжения в Украину. Он не выразил никакого протеста, начала "СВО" и молча поддержал Путина. К слову, он вместе с Фридманом пытается снять с себя санкции, буквально вчера он получил очередной отказ в этом вопросе.
В покупке Твиттера представлен компанией "8VC Opportunities Fund II, L.P.", в которой работает его сын Денис.

Вадим Мошкович — подсанкционный русский аграрный миллиардер, который являлся членом "Совета Федерации Федерального собрания Российской Федерации". Другими словами, он официально входил в самый приближенный круг Путина. Мошкович владеет крупнейшим в России агрохолдингом "Русагро". Естественно, он также присутствовал на встрече с Путиным 24 февраля 2022 года и, как и Авен, не выразил никакого протеста против вторжения России в Украину.
В покупке Твиттера представлен компанией "8VC Opportunities Fund II, L.P.", в которой работает его сын Джек (Евгений).

Также интересной личностью является Аль-Валид ибн Талал Аль Сауд, который как лично, так и через свою компанию Kingdom Holding Company, представлен в списке инвесторов аж три раза. Этот человек продолжает инвестиционный бизнес в России и не публично поддерживает ХАМАС в войне против Израиля. По инвестициям в Россию он регулярно сотрудничает с компаниями Роснефть, Лукойл и Газпром.

Зная все это, как вообще можно вести дискуссии по поводу заангажированности Илона Маска? Все думали, как такое возможно, что акции Твиттера (X) падают, рекламодатели разрывают договора, и никто ничего не делает. Это же прямой ущерб инвесторам. Но все не учли факт того, что инвесторам неважна прибыль, им нужна была платформа, чтобы продвигать свои нарративы, такие как: поддержка Путина и России; лоббирование заморозки войны в Украине; вывод украинской повестки из топа новостей; праведность деятельности ХАМАС и т.д.

Теперь очевидно, что все изменения в Твиттере, которые гробят эту прекрасную платформу, это следствие сотрудничества Илона Маска с такими людьми, как Мошкович и Авен.

小孩问庄子，什么是诡辩。庄子反问：我家来了两个客人，一个很干净，一个很脏。我请他俩洗澡，你觉得谁会洗？
小孩脱口而出；肯定是脏的那个!
庄子摇摇头：不对。干净的人爱干净，脏的人不在乎脏，应该是干净的人洗。
小孩赶紧改口：那就是干净的洗。
庄子又笑了：又错了。干净的人没必要洗，脏的人才需要洗，是脏的洗。
小孩情了：那到底是谁洗？
庄子说：干净的人有习惯，脏的人有需要，两个人都洗。不等小孩反应，他又补了一句；其实俩人都不洗，干净的不用洗，脏的不爱洗。
小孩彻底迷糊。
庄子这才点明：这就是诡辩。逻辑都通顺，但答案却不一样，很多人跟你争论，逻辑听着都没问题，但结论可以随意变换。
绕来绕去，目的不是求真，只是把你绕晕。

Have you all seen Trump’s announcement of his SUPER PUTIN DEAL? Russia promises to immediately supply more than 300,000 tonnes of diesel to the market, including the US, followed by another 500,000 tonnes in November. Then come promises of EVEN BIGGER volumes. Because the deal has to be HUGE. At least in the post.

OFAC, of course, wasted no time issuing a temporary waiver until April 7 to accommodate the president’s latest “GENIUS” deal.

Except the BIG DEAL is not actually that big. More of a stage prop. Very Trump.

Let’s do the maths. Actual numbers. TERRIBLE, I know.

300,000 tonnes is roughly 2.2 million barrels of diesel.
500,000 tonnes is roughly 3.7 million barrels.
In September, Russia managed to export just 0.1 million barrels. Basically none, as there is export ban.

So Putin has already “sold” Trump a volume 22 TIMES larger than Russia’s entire September exports. Making promises is, of course, easier than rebuilding refineries after Ukrainian strikes. MUCH EASIER. SOME SAY THE EASIEST.

Meanwhile, Russia’s diesel export ban remains in force until October 31: the fuel is needed domestically, and Ukrainian drones have significantly reduced Russia’s ability to produce it. A VERY SUCCESSFUL phone call with Trump is unlikely to have fixed those problems.

Now for another comparison. Russia’s average monthly diesel exports last year were 18.3 million barrels. The promised deliveries amount to just 12% and 20% of that volume, respectively.

So we have a promise that Russia still needs to find a way to fulfil, given the state of its refineries. And even if delivered, it looks considerably less impressive than the presidential CAPS LOCK. Not quite THE GREATEST DEAL IN HISTORY.

The political logic is clear. The war with Iran and high fuel prices are a bad backdrop for the elections. One would hope politically FATAL, at this point. The administration desperately needs a story about how the president is about to FIX EVERYTHING. Preferably IMMEDIATELY. Preferably without explaining how we got here in the first place.

So perhaps the main product of this deal is not even diesel. It is another attempt to calm the market with a BIG, BEAUTIFUL ANNOUNCEMENT. Let’s see how much credibility these announcements still have.

Russia, of course, will sell this as a HUGE VICTORY. And why wouldn’t it? Promise diesel you still need to find somewhere, get a sanctions waiver UPFRONT. Plus another opportunity to tell the world that it simply CANNOT MANAGE WITHOUT RUSSIA.

But what worries me most is that this spectacle could weaken our European partners’ resolve. Trump’s latest “breakthrough” must not become an excuse to ease sanctions pressure on Russia — precisely when that pressure needs to INCREASE.

Of course, this decision will benefit Russia by generating additional revenues. We’ll be watching how much of its export capacity Russia actually manages to restore. One thing is CLEAR: Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries need to INTENSIFY.
