Only in Russia: the FSB chief in charge of recruiting the Ukrainian VIPs to ensure the three-day victory Putin expected, instead enriched himself with luxury real estate that he registered incl. in the name of the Ukrainian assets he was supposed to run.https://t.co/FUqOb3dM0S

You may also want to see the video version of this story for some incredible fly-on-the-wall footage (@the_ins_ru always "have a clip") of the general clomping about in his pool and flying around on private jets as Russia's invasion was grinding to a halt. https://t.co/1XG2TOzL0l

by prohibiting jews from protesting against the abuses of palestinians, the german government has managed the impossible task of being antisemitic and islamophobic at the same time. kudos to germany, still the undisputed champion of this kind of thing

Apparently the EU Commissioner has begun a micro-targeting campaign on Twitter/X in favor of her content scanning regulation, and it explicitly excludes people who care about privacy or are skeptical of the EU. https://t.co/YgeEhJVjre pic.twitter.com/CqR8QGzdDT

The Intel 386 processor (1985) was the first 32-bit processor in the x86 line. Let's take a close look at the processor dies, seeing how Intel shrunk the chip, created new versions, and why the 386 SL jumped from 285,000 transistors to 855,000 transistors. 1/9

@kenshirriff: Credits: thanks to @Siliconinsid for the die images. The wall-sized 386 photo is from Intel's 1985 annual report. Thanks to Pat Gelsinger who sent me copies of his 1985 papers on the 386. 9/9โฆ

One of my favorite encounters with a Japanese developer was when I was doing bugtesting and submitted an issue about how pressing the AltGr key could trigger a crash. 12 hours later I got the message "Japanese keyboards don't have AltGr." and they marked the issue as solved.

The recommendation is to turn off link previews, however link previews are generated on the sender side. Just tested, with link previews turned off youโll still receive them from a device that sends those. 1/2
I think this would mean either:
โ joernchen (@joernchen) October 15, 2023
* Turning off link previews isnโt a sufficient mitigation
or
* The vuln is triggering on the sender side that means someone needs to convince you to create a message containing a malicious link
or
* The whole wis fake and just a nice troll
2/2
