Sign of a good actor!!!!
Hint: All American actors are actually British. Like, for real.
Nah, then they'd be better lol
Kidding aside, the British actors seems much more grounded on reality than the amerikans... Perhaps because they don't go for the Hollywood dream from toddler age idk
Videodrome just saw Central Freight Lines is closing. Crazy. We shipped orders and received supplies with them occasionally at work.
The internet is in some deep doodo right now. A huge vulnerability was found in a logging software that practically everyone uses. This is just starting to hit the mainstream media, but be extra cautious and check your credit cards for anything funny. This is going to be a bad one.

Log4j software bug: What you need to know
Casual computer users have probably never heard of this logging software, but it's used across the entire internet.

Isn't Apache a web server? So would it only be a risk to those sites? Granted, I think it is widely used on Linux based servers, though some might opt for Django or other open source web servers.
Yes, it definitely impacts Apache, which is widely used. Not sure on other stuff yet, but so many vendor products are using it too. Even Minecraft servers were vulernable.
Seems to really affect the payment logs autogenerated by a lot (and I mean A LOT) of kiosks. Oracle (they run a lot of transactional kiosks around the country) released a fix to be implemented, hopefully the big companies out there have already implemented this fix. Has to be implemented server side, so in theory it should be corrected on a wide scale sooner rather than later.
Kanada would be cool, even though it's run by the lovechild of Fidel and that slut mother.
Danmark...meh.
Schweiz... nja.
The problem is the amount of everything impacted. I've seen the list of products impacted and it is massive, and constantly growing. There's a million vendor products that use this free, open source logger. Our sysadmins have been scrambling just from the amount of work.
I've been spending way too much time looking into it. Luckily small school district with mostly cloud hosted stuff. We use Symantec and the Endpoint Protection Manager was vulnerable to it. Only mitigation so far is changing an environment variable in Windows so nothing too bad. We use Honeywell for HVAC and I can see it uses Java. So far Honeywell says they are still researching. Well hurry up.
Awww yeah first semester of grad school complete. Hopefully I got at least B's in both of my classes lol. Those finals are hard as f***!
Best thing you can do with your HVAC system is wall them off from every other part of their network. Our HVAC systems have their own dedicated network that only a handful of people access along with the HVAC devices. HVAC vendors are notorious for doing f***alll about stuff like this in a timely manner. Most important system in most buildings, but the ones that gets the least attention.
Even I have to jump through multiple hoops to even connect to a system on that part of the network.
We had a massive wind come through a few days ago and it literally ripped off the HVAC units on our roof, causing one to fall to the ground, and then rip up a portion of the roof as well. It was great. Damage all over town.
I'm editing my new video on the System Shock series that'll be close to 3 hours when it's done in January. Woo.

For sure. I'm fairly new here (8 months) and finding a lot of stuff needs to be changed. Like your example is something that should be done but documentation on switch ports or even the cabling for the HVAC is non existent.
My wife said her mom wants a Lets Go Brandon t-shirt for Christmas. Told her we will get her a nice Bath and Body basket instead. I’m not spending money on that dumb s***.
I've barely paid attention to this weak 'Meme'. I had to look it up. Still not sure I get it because it sounds so dumb.
At the end of a Nascar race, fans started chanting "f**k Joe Biden" while a driver was being interviewed. The interviewer told the driver that the fans were chanting "Let's go Brandon". I'm not sure if the driver being interviewed, or the race winner, was named Brandon.
For those of you who don't know, Nascar is a sport that has deep roots in the south. The vast majority of fans are right leaning. If you were to go to a race, you would see a noteworthy amount of confederate flags or things branded with it. Nascar hit its peak of popularity in the 2000s and has declined since then.
Is that why there was so much hate for Jeff Gordon? My aunt would talk about him all the time.
*note not sure if the vid below is the correct one
