From the pages of Gamest magazine: a photographic glimpse into the heart of Squaresoft's offices in Japan during the development of Final Fantasy VII in 1996.

That's one helluva multi-monitor setup they've got there!

Happy Holidays! 🦊🎄❄️

So here’s the short timeline: June 2023, SEC consult finds the attack. Informs CISCO, Microsoft, GMX/Ionos. After feedback they inform CERT/CC in August. 3rd of December CCC accepts their proposal for 37C3. 18th of December they publish their findings to the world. This is where the postfix community first hears about this and can finally start working on a fix.

You can sense how the normally very friendly postfix community felt betrayed by this behaviour just by reading their announcement of a fix. https://www.postfix.org/smtp-smuggling.html

Instead of sending a fix to #postfix upstream, especially when postfix just celebrated its 25th anniversary, these folks at SEC consult decided to milk their 15 minutes of fame and #37C3 happily gives them the stage. https://chaos.social/@Foxboron/111621156200642472

Anyway, if you run a #postfix server, make sure you have

smtpd_data_restrictions = reject_unauth_pipelining

in your main.cf so you can have relaxed holidays. Updates with a complete fix will land in your distro of choice soon enough. And thanks to SEC consult for this precious gift!

This wolf wishes all of you merry christmas and happy Howl-idays.

this is why many people who're so adamantly against federating with threads are so goddamn ANGRY

we're so fucking tired tired of having our safe spaces -- our refuges against queerphobia -- ripped away from us

queer people, outcasts, weirdos, etc. -- we built this fucking this network. we laid the groundwork for its very existence and now you're trying to tell us we don't matter, that we should just give it all up in the face of some evil megacorp. well fuck that

we're not going down without a fight

Look, when I said "AI and quantum computing are a psyop by the data center industry to make boxes that generate unlimited money just like crypto and NFT" I was being my usual paranoid doomer self. I was NOT expecting to be that right.

Have you checked?
