and by the looks of it, its gonna start already enshittified.

tvs are annoying to the point people recommend never connecting them to the internet and getting a raspberry pi to use as a “smart hub” sort of thing instead.

nobleberry is on it

always has been, nothing new under the sun.

trump just made it more obvious, but the US has been above the law for very very long.

isn’t judaism just a variation on christianity anyway?

ha. they are renting the datacenters back to us.

its gonna be forced cloud computing for us and total control for them.

and they have decades of closed drivers written for it.

they are speedrunning enshitification 🐧

that’s not about just me. defaults matter a lot.

let’s see what they implement though, their translation engine is nice so far, tbf.

which means it’s working, at least.

capitalism and the ultra wealthy are in control. and you could barely call these “human”

the actual thinnest is only having a choice between “yes” and “later”

until consent is properly manufactured, like with venezuelan oil.

i don’t think i’ve said much to walk back.

so no.

not directly, i mean as part of a chain, which is how these are more commonly used.

in a nutshell the process is maybe you have one way to bypass login for an https page of a small team service, which gives you way more surface area to try and look for vulnerabilities in a service or it’s underpinnings, then you may need something to move laterally or into root access which is where an old unpatched cpu vuln would come in clutch, because this might be the hardest part.

that’s if you are setting things up correctly in your server. usually out there it’s just a very old version of apache or wordpress or something, but i digress.

great advice. that’s what i’d do in that case.

oh shit yeah, that too. i always forget their bad QC compared to their price.

i’m talking about services you might want to expose, which might have rce vulnerabilities. i edited my post for slight clarification but i think you replied before i had the chance, so i’m doing it here.

many people do end up hosting other services at home besides just the bare router when they get sufficient “tinker” hardware, which seem to be the case.

either way it’s indeed not something one should worry too much about in op’s case atm, if just to understand what one can expect from older hardware or the limits of what you can get away with.

that could still be a concern depending on what services you might be running and exposing. a known unpatched vuln on an old cpu could be the key on the exploit chain for a possible attacker.

regular joe kind of target and such so obviously talking about an unlikely scenario already.

i’d worry about unpatched cpu vulns depending on how old it is though.
