Nerd-snipe; what were some well-known or impactful Linux malwares?

Show previous comments
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
@ShadowJonathan Recent Minecraft modpacks malware infection did work on Linux because it was Java malware injected in Java code

Also, I think some Python malware from cases where there were hijacked repositories etc. was targeting linux users/servers by trying to get ssh keys and send them to attacker

okay this boot up sequence tying into setting up the game is amazing already

Okay, so apparantly Reddit decided that the GDPR is nonexistent today; tane.codes/@tanepiper/11055380

Holy fucking shit, even though the restore is bad enough on its own, the evidence that reddit *has not deleted this data even though GDPR would compel them so* is even more damning

That lawsuit is fucking incoming, especially with the badwill they've accumulated this past month

@ShadowJonathan yeah no they don't, if old Linus were back he'd call you something even worse than a moron

I think memes are a language

And as such, like with any other language, it can be used to spread hate, harassment, racism, phobia, abuse, and other nasty shit

However, it can also be used to help bring people together, to laugh, to share information, or to frame something, or even frame memes itself

I think memes are an art

Linux says trans rights (real) (official)

Idk, something about this just makes me really happy

I know we all love Xenia, but Linus coming out and saying it makes me incredibly happy

literally the only correct update Nintendo could've released for the 3DS was one which opened up the firmware at least a little more, and/or removed restrictions to playing games (I'm almost sure that there are still cross-region restrictions, and so removing them would be the correct option)

When a device is past its end of its lifecycle like that you don't lock it down more, you give people the tools to still re-use it

You're just making more E-waste otherwise

Literal Jesus fucking Christ

I wish large influential bodies like the EU would actually go as far as to make this law; once a product is no longer supported, an update should be released that allows full access to its boot components, to allow consumers to be able to develop or flash custom firmware for it at any time

No computer chip is sacred enough to demand full industrial secrecy, especially when you're selling those chips to consumers, that's not secrecy, that's artificial scarcity, and in some ways, planned obsolescence

All of this wastes the abilities and capacities of the high-tech fabs we've built to churn out chips, the only EOL destination it sees is a dispassionate throw into a garbage dump, literally the most wasteful you could ever be with a high-energy product like this

Not to mention the incredible disservice and apathy that does to the sourcing of the materials, which often come at high cost, and not just money

Literally everything about this makes me angry

I'm fairly sure most of my direct followers are not using Twitter anymore, but here is a very good example of where this platforms stands as of yet.

Please, if you're still using Twitter, just stop, you're just enabling this manchild.

@ShadowJonathan chuckling at how people are still only just finding out about the poop emoji thing and focusing on that instead of *gestures at all of it*

@ShadowJonathan @VulpineAmethyst Funnily, I left due to other reasons (like, being thrown into the tweetdeck beta, which took the worse bits of tweedeck, and the worse bits of the website, and merged them...) a week before the buy out. I have been viewing it as "leaving early to avoid the rush" now.
