Myanmar resistance fighters pictured front of Loikaw University's convocation building after clashing with the Military junta. This snapshot went viral on social media, and the Myanmar junta army facing heavy attacks from its surroundings. #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar #loikaw #KNDF pic.twitter.com/8uIgMzzAGa

The footage of Junta’s remaining troops in Loikaw University surrendering. EROs and PDFs are trained to strictly abide by COC, Geneva convention and IHL . The footage demonstrates their commitment in following rules of War. My respect goes to our KNDF. pic.twitter.com/uMvZ1kfl8M

New Chinese arrest warrant for Kokang BGF leader: Chinese police go after MAH crony and BGF co-founder Bai Suocheng’s son Bai Yingcang; arrest warrant notes that the younger Bai is on the run, evading arrest. pic.twitter.com/ujr1jqzymA

It is absolutely wild to me that pig butchering scams are brining down the Burmese junta. China wanted the scam centres shut down and the thousands of Chinese slaves freed. The family controlling the centres was part of the army, so nothing happened. Now the rebels are freeing the slaves and China is issuing arrest warrants and capturing the scammers. They’ve picked their side.

Just completely crazy that crime, particularly a cybercrime adjacent one, is toppling a military dictatorship.


Disposable Windows VM Builder

Configure a disposable Windows VM right in your browser. You will receive a tiny, self-bootstrapping image. Check out the presentation to see how this works behind the scenes, or hack on the code yourself! This UI is still a bit rough in places, but it will produce usable images. I'd be happy to receive any feedback, bug reports or other suggestions either on GitHub or via other channels.

just came across https://t.co/TLjr4ngXOC which is a way to scam AWS

they have an AWS org signed up for long term contracts and you can add your account under it to pretend you're the same company

and you get the discounts

i don't see how this stays being allowed

"So what's your business model?"

"We help Amazon customers unionize to collectively bargain with AWS. We foresee them having zero problems with how we operate."

My dude, even their DynamoDB offering doesn't support UNIONs. https://t.co/L46aylM4SR
