“Bootkitty” is likely a proof-of-concept, but may portend working UEFI malware for Linux.
“Whether a proof of concept or not, Bootkitty marks an interesting move forward in the UEFI threat landscape, breaking the belief about modern UEFI bootkits being Windows-exclusive threats,” ESET researchers wrote. “Even though the current version from VirusTotal does not, at the moment, represent a real threat to the majority of Linux systems, it emphasizes the necessity of being prepared for potential future threats.”
I hope they follow this up with a “we need to talk about prohibition” video because that is where the most harm resides. All drugs have downsides, but treating them as a justice issue rather than a health issue harms everyone.

Seriously though, I never got near those numbers. I did put about 2500 hours into TFC and TF2 before it became a bot hellscape.
I also went into NextDNS and put blocks on the news sites I got into the habit of checking. Fuck this, I’m not even in the US.
The key issue is they are testing for the presence of THC which can remain in the body a long time, long after it would have no effect on driving. If they cannot detect impairment, what’s the point? Now nobody with a legal medical cannabis prescription can drive without fear of being tested.

> "These people are often very conscious of not driving when they feel impaired by their substance but the legislation as it stands, it doesn't matter if you are impaired or not, it's only if the substance is in your system.
There are now more individuals on the National Gang List, alongside a reduction in police officers on the streets.
> * There are 190 more people on the National Gang List and 80 fewer police officers on the streets than in November 2023 when Labour was in government.
- Police Minister Mark Mitchell says the National-led government is seeing success and there are many police officers in training to come through, but there is "a lot more to do".
- Former police officer Lance Burdett says the gang patch ban will have the opposite of the intended effect, forcing criminals underground.
Just yesterday I banned Facebook’s user agent that is supposedly only used to generate link previews. It was being extremely aggressive, making 20 requests per second. At the time I thought “I bet they’re actually building their own search index”, and here we are.
I haven’t read wired in a few years, and it looks like I haven’t missed anything.
Greg Smith of Devon Funds said it was not what he thought the Reserve Bank would do, but what it should do, given the state of the economy.
Sir John says Kamala Harris' economic views are radically to the left of Joe Biden - and for all his faults, Trump is the better choice.
Key: "Donald Trump is driving very much an America First and a more isolationist kind of view. Actually, it's quite different, it's a very different foreign policy than we've ever seen. So that probably doesn't help New Zealanders much. But on balance, I think he's probably better for the economy.“
The government could be set to spend 10 percent of its total budget for new infrastructure for the next 25 years on a highway between Auckland and Whangārei.
> "Is this one motorway really worth one-tenth of our entire country's spending on schools, hospitals, houses and public transport infrastructure?"
Further regulation of the supermarket sector may hit a snag in the form of David Seymour, who is mounting strong opposition to any such move.
Labour says the focus on big new roads is hypocrisy for a government that came to power promising to cut costs.
> "More people are going to have to rely on cars and trucks to get around because we don't have a pipeline of alternatives like rapid transit, inter-city passenger rail, public transport and safe walking and cycling in our communities”

Myth #12. “The government can protect society by banning new drugs”. Banning drugs masquerades as positive tough action to remove the ‘problem’ when actually banning drugs has little impact on use and makes production, distribution and consumption more dangerous. Myth #13. “Once listed in the Misu
