    Millions of Docker repos found pushing malware, phishing sites

    Very VERY VERy wrong... sadly :( Look at all these major breaches, usually comes down to no MFA enabled (ChangeHealth card) or admin using crap passwords, or other elevated users using personal devices and getting infected with info-stealers.

    Millions of Docker repos found pushing malware, phishing sites

    Because they are the same idiots who just copy and paste random code from github repo's because they really have no business being a developer. Some of these malicious actors are sneaky and do copy other projects and use URLs close or names the same and they know most people do not pay any...

    Millions of Docker repos found pushing malware, phishing sites

    It is the same people (cough, devs cough) who configure cloud services and leave S3 buckets wide open, RDP wide open on new VMs and skip every other basic security control (do not even add MFA to their AWS root account and use it for day to day tasks....) Companies keep supporting this because...

    So after this BTC halving, should I invest a ton of money or what?

    Problem is in the Crypto space since it came about and got popular is you see people literally bet the house, because some other twitter influencer made millions over night off some sh*t coin, and everyone else thinks they can do the same. So they put all their money in, buy every coin that...

    Any good games with offline bots?

    I have my good and bad days, some days clearing the top 3 for kills, other day just sucking royally, but with games like Apex Legends, so many players use aim assist systems and recoil limiters i just accept they are cheating most of the time vs me sucking :D

    Any Prosumer/Enterprise-ish Wireless Access Points I'm missing?

    Ya, this is why in our next house and when Wifi8 drops officially I will likely look to buy some quality APs like the Ruckus knowing I wont have to replace them for many years to come.

    Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) freeses

    Are you using Hyper-V as the virtualization? Have you checked your Windows Event logs to see any errors are reported at the time the freezing occurs? When you say you RDP to the system, are you RDP to the host Windows 11 box, or do you RDP direct into the VMs?

    Free Microsoft with ads?

    No one would want it...and people would then just find ways to block the ad's somehow. Instead just install it, not activate and just not be able to change your taskbar or desktop settings..

    Gigaplus 8-port 2.5G 2-port 10G switch $69

    Reason why they are not comparible, because these knock off fly by night brands will offer no support, no returns if you try, no firmware updates and are usually using old dated controllers and chips.

    Roku accounts hacked

    Ya, i did this with the mother-in-law - set up her accounts on her device, all recovery options go to my number or emails (she didnt want to have a lock screen on her phone... forced that at least) and she has lost her phone 3 times in 2 years.... I then explained how her unlocked phone gives...

    Gigaplus 8-port 2.5G 2-port 10G switch $69

    k, nice , didnt see that :D If they are doing that then awesome, that is always my concern, is some backdoor chip in these things that starts sending out, or for all we know has a sleeper device in it that doesnt turn on for a while. In the end, how do you block this from sending out data if it...

    Gigaplus 8-port 2.5G 2-port 10G switch $69

    I do like to think STH had some decent credibility, but the amount of cheap "back of a truck" Chinese products they push these days, some with known chipset bugs or other faults (why the items in said product were discontinued) they do not even bother to research...

    Which NIC for security?

    Intel MEI is something only in specific motherboards, so 2 options are either stop buying those devices, but if it is a work environment you may have it so you can do remote management if ever needed, or ya, disable it and just get any other NIC and off you go.

    Windows 10 users: Get ready to be bugged about creating a Microsoft Account

    I just use Steam and Proton for windows games, and for me performance is still all there, I can do Apex Legends and max out at 144FPS as I could in windows. Most other games I play though, have linux versions, Steam games, Civilization. On one hand, it almost makes it easier for me to choose...

    Windows 10 & 11 Pro - $25

    Sure there are specific cases where someone may need Windows due to specific software, but for most home users, especially those not specific to gaming (Steam and proton works great!) there are alternatives, but people dont want to try them. I switched to nix distro as my main OS years ago...

    Arista ending Untangle Home License

    Which NIC for security?

    I think they do not list it because it is not really an issue. Every NIC supports those features because they are often needed or used, and if they are getting exploited, then someone is likely already with in your network and you have bigger issues. Are there active PoC's for that of those...

    Windows 10 & 11 Pro - $25

    This part I do not always understand. People are willing to spend stupid amounts of money on hardware, or on games, but nope! I am not paying for the core OS that lets everything even work and makes my computer usable..... If you hate MS that much move to linux?

    9950X and 9950X3D is going to be terrific.

    My 5950x is holding strong, but the amount of VM's and stuff and other crap I run these days, something new may be in my future, but I was then also considering a used threadripper or something...guess we shall see!

    Apple Plans To Overhaul Entire Mac Line With AI-Focused M4 Chips

    I did mention Dell in my post...But certainly some companies get more flack than others do for the same tactics.

    Apple Plans To Overhaul Entire Mac Line With AI-Focused M4 Chips

    Ram is still faster than the fastest NVMe's. 8G if too little these days for most in day to day usage, browsers with tabs, office apps, messenger apps or anything...it costs Apple about $5 for that ram chip a recent article was talking about, but they charge you so much to go to 16GB.

    Apple Plans To Overhaul Entire Mac Line With AI-Focused M4 Chips

    How do you access a vlan from a computer that's not part of the vlan?

    Exactly, and doing a default "block all" outbound and locking down DNS can stop many exploits dead in their tracks! Tie it in with geo based rules to help a little more (not as much as these days malicious actors have services all around the world) you set yourself up pretty good for some solid...
