More details have emerged which allegedly depict Mr. Bowie walking around a healthcare facility trying to get access to machines without hospital authorization.

No idea what's going on. All we know is Mr. Bowie should hire a lawyer.

That's not a typo. The paper is actually says, "for pun and fropit". It discusses polymorphic mutation in JScript.

We should do some kind of weird impromptu malware meetup. Like, we all show up at an anime store or something and exchange our favorite pictures of cats.

If you're new to malware stuff, and want to learn malware stuff, go to our paper collection.

If you read 10% of our malware analysis paper collection (took notes, seriously understood it), you'd be a fuckin' monster.

If you know how to code (Python, C, C++, .NET), and visit our malware development section and read about 40% of the papers (took notes, seriously understood it), you'd be a fuckin' monster.

You'd have a powerful understanding of malware analysis, malware development, the malware threat landscape, malware threat groups (state-sponsored or financially motivated). You'd jump from absolute noob dumbie to Subject Matter Expert lightning fast.

Unfortunately, this also requires you to lock in pretty damn hard. You'd have to seriously dedicate yourself. However, if you could do 2 or 3 papers a day, in about 12 months, you'd be ridiculously well versed in malware. But you'd (probably) burn and crash out pretty fast at this rate because the amount of information you'd be ingesting would be astronomical.

Anyway, if you want to actually learn, we have a massive-fuck-off-library of malware educational resources waiting for you.

For the record, we've known a few people to actually lock in and actually dig through the library. We know C5pider has read quite a bit from it, he ended up making Havok C2 and being big brain. He also know rad9800 read a bunch of it, he's also insanely big brain.

Both these dudes are like, 20 or something, and are dangerously smart.

We also know 5mukx has been locked in pretty hard and digging through the library too. He's taken the painful task of translating and re-writing the C/C++ code into Rust to improve his understanding of malware and improve his Rust programming skills.

Shoutout the young bloods. They got so good, we've been adding their content and research into the library now.

JEFFREY, STOP TALKING DAWG

JEFFREY, THIS ISNT A VALID LEGAL STRATEGY

STOP. TALKING.

In a bit of irony, the famous 2004 commercial "Piracy, It's A Crime", used pirated font.

It was discovered by a Redditor (and later confirmed by various news outlets), that the font used in the advertisements uses "Xband-Rough" by Just van Rossum. The font that was supposed to be used was "FF Confidential" by Just van Rossum

Sky News reached out to Just van Rossum for comment, Just van Rossum stated "[he] wasn't concerned". Additionally, per media outlets, there is currently no evidence on whether or not "Piracy, It's A Crime" intentionally pirated the font.

However, there is no legal clause that grants exemptions based on accidental copyright violation (although enforcement varies, Mr. van Rossum likely will not press charges)

tl;dr piracy is bad commercial does piracy to save a few bucks

Awhile back we met this guy on Twitter. He had like, 1,000 followers (relatively unknown). He was making posts about using AI to cheat coding interviews and getting jobs. He memed the entire thing. He dropped out a very prestigious university to continue this idea on memeing job interviews with AI.

We spoke with him on Twitter, discussing specifications on his ideas. We memed. Sent cat pictures.

Fast forward, he's now rich. What the fuck? How do we meme our way to $100,000,000?

Congratulations, Roy. We're happy your crazy memeing some how made you profoundly wealthy and got investors.

Went to the doctor today and the physician informed me I have a BMI of 60

Almost failed the test. By the grace of God I still passed 🙏

Decided to read my newborn Windows internals. He likely won't remember everything, but the habit of reading boring literature will prepare him for C programming when the keyboard isn't larger than his body

The so called "Doctor" recommended coding which is visually demonstrative. Traditional programming apparently requires too much "critical thinking" and isn't as "rewarding".

Smh makes me sick
