Sottovalutare la sicurezza informatica Oggi. Parliamo di โ€œtanto chi vuoi che mi attacca?โ€

๐Ÿ“Œ Link all'articolo : redhotcyber.com/post/sottovaluโ€ฆ

La cultura del โ€œtanto chi vuoi che mi attacchi?โ€ gira ancora, testarda. Non รจ uno slogan, รจ proprio un modo di pensare.

Una specie di alibi mentale che permette di rimandare, di non guardare troppo da vicino certi rischi. Succede spesso nelle aziende piccole, quelle dove tutti fanno un poโ€™ di tutto e la #sicurezza resta una cosa vaga, sullo sfondo.

We need to sound the alarm ๐Ÿšจ. Today, the House of Representatives passed a barbaric piece of legislation that would subject migrant children to invasive bodily searches, keep them in prison, and refuse to let them be released to their families.

Itโ€™s disgusting that corporate media is not talking about how this will result in further systemic abuse of migrant children.

Putinโ€™s envoy Kirill Dmitriev is heading to Miami this weekend for talks with Trump aides Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner on the U.S. peace plan for Ukraine. This follows recent Berlin talks with Kyiv, where progress was made on security guarantees, but territorial issues remain unresolved. No trilateral meeting is planned.

Natural gas prices in Europe have all but returned to normal since Russia's full scale war in Ukraine. In fact, the only reason for the spike in 2021 and 2022 has been Russia's energy war against Europe, which started even before the full scale invasion of Ukraine. The numbers clearly say that.

It proves many things:

Russian energy was never cheap, neither politically nor economically.
Russian energy was always unreliable.
Russia always needed Europe more than the other way around.

I thinking of uninstalling the excellent #Wordpress #ActivityPub Plugin and defederating my sites from the #Fediverse. For technical reasons only. CPU goes through the roof when new posts are boosted for the first time, causing 508 errors.

is this "only" a problem when you post new things?

so there is always the option to tweak the scheduling, to not send all pings at the same time. the only downside is, that this can take some more time until every of your follower receives the new post.

in reply to Matthias Pfefferle

I will put it on the backlog.

idea: an option to chose between different scaling/load levels.

1. publish as fast as possible (high load)
2. reduce bulks and increase pauses between sending
3. take your time โ˜•๏ธ

@pfefferle Only when I post new things, but for each new post there are two CPU peaks associated with CPU faults. One when it is first published, then a larger one later when I (or someone else with a moderate following) boosts it directly on Mastodon.

@The Human Capybara L'exรฉcution, oui. Pour l'entraรฎnement par contre, c'est un autre ordre de grandeur pour la puissance de calcul nรฉcessaire. Et vu que les trois plus grandes entreprises dans le secteur essaient d'engendrer Dieu, il n'y a pas vraiment de limite thรฉorique ร  ce que รงa pourrait requรฉrir en terme d'architecture matรฉrielle.

@The Human Capybara C'est comme la recherche web, obtenir un rรฉsultat est peu coรปteux, mais gรฉnรฉrer l'index de recherche et l'agrรฉmenter sont deux tรขches trรจs coรปteuses.

New study warns #glaciers in European #Alps will hit their peak #extinction rate w/in 8 yrs w global glacier loss accelerating toward thousands per yr unless #emissions are rapidly cut. #Glaciers in western US, #Canada forecast to reach their peak yr of loss less than decade later w more than 800 disappearing each yr by then.

Turns out climate change keeps happening even when we decide we don't want to talk about it anymore

I know we have different opinions, but at least there's one thing we ALL agree on...

  • Spaces (53%, 192 votes)
  • Tabs (57%, 207 votes)
358 voters. Poll end: 1 mese fa




I know many of you who follow me don't work in climate science, but this is the biggest story in climate right now. Breaking up NCAR makes us all less safe and is another act of self-harm that will take decades to recover from.

My message to Ursula von der Leyen in The Guardian this morning:
Americaโ€™s bet on AI is now so gigantic that every MAGA voterโ€™s pension is bound to the bubbleโ€™s precarious survival. If she grabs Trump where it hurts, Europe will win this fight.

What you don't say: That the plugin is not updated in ClassicPress installations if already installed, and can't be installed on installations without a former version.

On my main blog with ClassicPress 2.6.0, although automatic updates are active, the version of the plugin is still 5.3.2 โ€“ and it only works here and there. Mostly the articles don't reach the Fediverse.

On another blog, also with ClassicPress 2.6.0, I tried to install it yesterday and the plugin site said: no.

It seems to me that ClassicPress is not wanted in the Fediverse.

Thereโ€™s no intention to exclude ClassicPress. Our resources are limited, so we donโ€™t actively test with it, but Iโ€™m happy to fix issues when possible... or, even better, merge PRs that resolve them.


Nell'estrema periferia a est di Roma si spara quasi ogni giorno. A finire a terra - gambizzati o peggio - sono ragazzi poco piรน grandi di quelli con cui ho a che fare. In questi quartieri-paese dove la gente si รจ andata a rifugiare (o รจ stata ricacciata) nel corso dei primi anni duemila, lontana dal caos delle zone semicentrali, la violenza e le dipendenze restano in sottotraccia, nascoste dalla coltre di conformismo della borghesia medio bassa, fatta di casette col giardino, di piscine gonfiabili, di feste di compleanno in cui i grandi si sbronzano mentre i figli giocano, di squadrette di calcio o di basket nei cui spogliatoi cui circola di tutto. Caseggiati nati ai lati di uno stradone e tutt'intorno campagna, manco ci trovassimo in un film di tim burton, in cui perรฒ Edward lo fa Pippo Franco e te fa sfumatura+saetta a 10โ‚ฌ

The United Kingdom is coming back to Erasmus+!

Negotiations for the United Kingdomโ€™s association to Erasmus+ in 2027 have been concluded.

It will offer significant opportunities across education, training, sports, and youth, giving people the chance to connect across borders once again.

This follows the EU-UK Strategic Partnership agreed at the first ever Summit in May.

A step forward for youth, education, and cooperation, together again. ๐Ÿค

@Veza85UE @po3mah @Tarbh I would like the UK to rejoin. We have shared history, shared interests, and shared families. By all means, clown on Cameron, Farage, Johnson and May, but there's no reason to punish people who wanted to remain in the EU.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

@Gargron @po3mah @Tarbh Our shared history in the EU is not one of kumbaya and happy clappy cooperation, why pretend otherwise? Do you miss their EUCO veto ? For all the great work of a handful of civil servants and judges who understood the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ project and built the Single Market, Brits NEVER accepted what the EU is.* I lived there at the time, I have enough reasons to doubt this notion of a few bad apples. The sense of entitlement and exceptionalism is pervasive in both camps.

Ihr seid von netten Leuten nach Hause zum Essen eingeladen worden. Beim Abrรคumen fragt der Gastgeber/die Gastgeberin: "Na, hat es Dir denn auch geschmeckt?"
Es hat Euch aber nicht gemundet, also so gar nicht... ๐Ÿคข
Was antwortet Ihr?

@Lucatermite Ich kann nicht backen aber halbwegs gut kochen, so dass gern Nachschlag verlangt wird und sich frรผher immer alle selber zu uns nach Hause eingeladen haben. Ich hatte oft die Bude voll und stand vorher den ganzen Tag am Herd. Das tue ich mir heute nicht mehr an.
Wenn jemand mit mir essen mรถchte, dann bitte auswรคrts.

I will never forgive the security community for not naming this vulnerability "Reactor Meltown".

in reply to Jerry ๐Ÿฆ™๐Ÿ’๐Ÿฆ™

Maybe going forward, we need polling widgets on frontline security blogs (which tend to get cited over an over):
"Name this vuln" / "Rate this vuln name"
Thus we can go with the best name, and say we knew it all along later ๐Ÿ˜‡


Hot take about the Nvidia news that is littering my feed this morning: Nvidia is planning to reduce production in anticipation of substantially reduced demand.


Und ja, ich bin eben gerade in meinem Urlaub nur deswegen ins Bรผro gefahren, um die Pflanzen zu gieรŸen, die ich gestern vergessen hatte.


Die Bรผroverwalterin, die mich eben gerade spontan freundschaftlich umarmt hat und mir schรถne Weihnachten gewรผnscht hat, weiรŸ gar nicht, wie gut mir das gerade in der Seele getan hat.
