  • Oh my god.

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/
    

    We absolutely need to stop this. Sure, I saw the disclaimer, but we need to end the normalization of running ANY black-box crap off the net. “curl|sh” needs to be laughed into exile for all our safety.

    The easiest thing needs to be the right thing – common security saying

    Then it’s

    vim
    

    As if that’s actually user-friendly or a positive experience instead of the worst thing to ever survive from the last century, crawling along on its rotting flesh and drooling on the pavement like some toxic residue from the vietnam war that it is.

    In what asylum do you have the people willing to suffer vi and who also need a curl|sh ? Are they lazy or just misled as noobs into thinking vi is the only editor out the–

    You guys, I just realized how vi masochists actually reproduce. It’s like zombies, guys, eating brains until the victim raises up another zombie.

    And that curl|sh – does it invite supply-chain exploits? Ohhh, you bet it does! Best black-box script ever! Use this as a test for your security people – if they gauge this as a threat from within another threat, they pass. But, honestly, had it not been for the horrible spelling, I wouldn’t have thought to check further. \shrug. Mineshafts and canaries I guess.








  • They don’t mention the conspiracy theory: this vessel was owned by the founder of Autonomy software, which died in the accident.

    Ha! The which/who failure makes it sound like the vessel died in the accident.

    The same day, the ex vice president of Autonomy software, was killed in a car accident.

    And this one sounds like ‘the same day’ is someone’s name, and that person was killed in a car accident. What a weird name – and I once worked for a guy named Ransom Love, and this one still stands out. Do they shorten the name to ‘Sam’?
