Basically it’s two vulns chained; first one gives a remote user privileges that a physically present user would get, in order to do things like put a thumbdrive in and have it mount. Then that udisks privilege can be subverted to escalate that level to root. So as long as you can start a remote session, you can pull root and it doesn’t even look that hard.

Ah. Yah, well, I just went with the article’s own headline since so many comms insist on that.

Are you saying LPEs aren’t a security hazard?

I think they’ve made those for years with bushings instead of bearings on the impeller shaft, and when it’s clapped out, it’s done.

Nexus 7 with FBReader connected via OPDS to Caliber, and I get books via Usenet, most of which I’ve physically bought but hate reading physical books now. I have several extra Nexus 7s because I like the size, old Android doesn’t have a lock screen which annoys the fuck out of me when I read in bed and they work fine.

There’s a blast from the past; it has to be 30 years since I played UO.

Seriously, would there be anything that’s not known already that would change anything? I think that a video tape of Trump anally violating a Teletubby would just get a yawn and 5D chess comment from his base.

What was that supposed to accomplish? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think Trump would have paid any more attention to it in English, but what do you think you’re getting done by speaking a language that someone you’re trying to get a message across to doesn’t speak?

Magnifique.

These laws are performative. They know they’ll be struck down, they just put them in so they can point at them to justify authoritarian policy going forward.

Ermagerd, the courts struck down our law as completely contravening freedom of speech! The courts must be abolished!

That’ll be on the Internet’s headstone.

Everyone knew he wasn’t going to be able to curtail democratic elections without the excuse of a war. This is on schedule.

It’ll work for quick bash scripts and one-off things like that. But there’s not usually enough context window unless you’re using a 24G GPU or such.

I prefer that Walther band, they’re edgy.

The goal is to wipe out Palestinians.

Brawndo, it’s got what the body craves.

I have this talent as well; I use sriracha instead of ketchup on my burger and fries, with hot peppers.

But let me warn you, do not think this holds true when you have hemorrhoids. It will put you in a different universe of pain.

It’s just the whiskey talking.
