  1. Re:Military applications on Octopuses Show Scientists How To Hide Machines in Plain Sight (axios.com) · · Score: 1

    This despite the fact that military is FAMOUS for horrendously overspending on stupid crap that doesn't work.

    Most of the horrendous overspending is just fake accounting to cover the black budgets.

    Did you perhaps mean to type "Hero to Zero"?

  3. You just go out and "hire a backhoe"?

    Do you mean rent one? Because if so, bullshit. You've got to transport it, you've got to deal with 611, you've got permits if you're in a residential area, you've got a whole lot of fucking shit.

    If you mean "hire someone to use a backhoe to dig for me", you ARE hiring a team of people. There's the person in the office you spoke with, the manager, the person who buys the equipment, the guy who deals with the permits, the guy who handles the insurance, the guys who run the backhoes, the guys who drive the trucks, etc. etc. You're just ignorant and you don't think beyond what's right in front of your face.

  4. The backhoe operator is the ditch digger. So is his boss, who sent him out to the location and told him what to dig. And so is the guy who looked up the location and checked for cables, pipes, etc. And so is the person you called up and asked to schedule the whole thing. And the guy who drove the backhoe over there on a large truck.

  5. Don't worry, neither can the Wikipedia "editors" who did a hack job copy and pasting from various sites and text books.

  7. logging : security :: pregnancy tests : contraception

    This is a very poor analogy. It hints at serious deficiencies in security.

    Most major attacks involve an initial point of ingress, a period of observation, further compromises and privilege escalation, additional network reconnaissance, and, finally, exfiltration of sensitive data and/or sabotage.

    If you are logging and monitoring effectively, you can detect an attacker during the early stages and prevent him from accessing sensitive material. This requires a skilled and responsive security team, but it is possible for any medium-to-large enterprise.

    If you're only looking at your logs after the shit has hit the fan, then I'm sorry to say---your security posture is weak, and you are asking to be compromised. You essentially have no capacity to identify or locate an attacker on your network.

    Bullshit. The vast majority of attacks, even the big ones, are due to credential exposure (password reuse or phishing).

    If your logging system indicates that someone got in, shit has already hit the fan. If your logging system indicates that someone is trying to get in, it's a day that ends in Y.

  8. And POTUS Obama's Regime murdering US citizens via drone strike.

  9. Bullshit. Why else would and organization spend millions on a UTM & SaaS licensing to protect against APTs?

    They're legally our allies.

    They're factually our allies.

    When WW III starts, they're more likely to be our allies than China, and far more likely to be more effective allies than any other other Euro-zone nation.

    Read a fucking history book you shit.

  13. I never said treason required a declaration of war.

    Learn to read, idiot.

    Supporting Russia or Russians isn't treason.

    Fact.

    We are not at war with Russia. In fact, they're our allies.

    Also a fact. Like it or not, we are both in the UN.

    Treason includes giving aid or comfort the the nation's enemies (foreign or domestic).

    Notice they key element here. I'm referring to the nation's enemies (foreign or domestic). That does not require a declaration of war. It doesn't even require the enemy be a non-citizen. Hell, a good chunk of US politicians are guilty of treason.

    He said "warez producers". The vast, vast majority of people making WaReZ are part of a scene, and they do it right.
    Miscreants who take the releases, inject malware, and redistribute them are not the WaReZ producers, are not part of the scene, won't have their .nfo indexed, will have any "release" they try to pass off nuked, etc.

    Next you'll tell me that Warez producers incorporate exploit code into the products they crack.

    They don't. Proper scene releases are clean.

  19. It's the mouthpiece of reality that you really object to.

    I'm sorry that you are loyal to Russia instead of America, and that you want Americans to continue running Russian government spyware.

    If you were a loyal American instead of a traitor you would understand that it's important to warn you fellow Americans of a hostile foreign adversary's attack on your country and your computers.

    Supporting Russia or Russians isn't treason. We are not at war with Russia. In fact, they're our allies.

    Treason includes giving aid or comfort the the nation's enemies (foreign or domestic).
