idk how many here would be on Win11 still, but in case you are, consider turning off this functionality that's on by default #AIfuckey #microsoft #windows
So, one of my resolutions this year was to write more code.
I love to break stuff, but last year I reignited my passion for coding and I would really love to contribute to the community that has given me so much and continues to do so.
And contributing works a lot better by creating, rather than breaking.
So I created a codeberg account. And I already have a first repo published!
I called it Axmar.
Axmar is a C# implementation of the SilentHarvest technique that was published last year.
It uses backup access and rarely used APIs to (mostly) stealthily read the local credentials database in Windows system.
Enjoy!

Can someone give me a quick recommendation for an encrypted #chatApp that is suitable for legal discussion and allows group chats? Voice chats a plus but not strictly necessary. Ideally runs on #Linux #Android and #Windows with #iOS an added bonus.
I know about #Signal and if that's good enough just tell me. Otherwise any info is appreciated.
I don't know enough about these things for my paranoia to calm down. And I just realized I don't know what hashtags to use to get the help o need.

We at @Vivaldi are different from most other companies. We are a Icelandic-Norwegian company. We host our servers in Iceland. We have no external investors.
I am lucky enough to work with some really wonderful people, including @brucelawson who has made this video that I hope you enjoy!

Update: Thx for the tips! Handbrake unfortunately doesn't work on my system. Will try VLC later.
Do people still rip dvds and what (open source) program do they use?

I just realized that one of the desktops in the lab running #Windows 10 is no longer supported. Does this mean it can now finally run quietly 24x7 without any unexpected reboots ruining my unsaved work due to updates? I am relieved!
Hey Windows (ab)users! Microsoft patched around 200 vulnerabilities in Windows etc today, a record Patch Tuesday batch. All indications are they fixed two of the zero-days dropped last month by the researcher Nightmare Eclipse, including "Green Plasma" and the "YellowKey" exploit that allowed local access to data encrypted by BitLocker. In response to today's Patch Tuesday, Nightmare Eclipse dropped an exploit for what they claimed was a zero-day bug in Windows Defender.
Nearly three dozen of the bugs patched this month earned Microsoft’s most dire “critical” rating, and exploit code for at least three of the weaknesses is now publicly available.

Yeah, well, presumably Microsoft corporation or someone who works at it is the one who did that to you, not all users of affected Microsoft products. So shut the fuck up.
I fucking hate people who punish or blame innocents in their blind rage.
