Wondering how/if this exploit would effect an OS with luks encryption? How could the arbitrary code compromise the encrypted volume? Could it be kept in memory and ran after volume decryption?
I don't have any real understanding of how code executed before bootloader works or if it's presistant after boot.
That's so shity. I'm so sorry you had to ensure that. I dont know what else to say but fuck that guy! I admire your courage in sharing and hope things are going better. I guess I just want you to know that your being listened to.
What about Hornblower's, Bolger's, Took's, Sackville's or Grubb's?
We have lost control of our governance completely long ago. We let corporations become people while we became a product.
I've been spotted!
QI with Stephen Fry was absolute gold! Sandi is great too. Anything with David Mitchell is awesome. I think my favorite is Johnny Vegas, that guy is a riot. Bill Baily, Phill Juputus,Sean Lock coming to think of it there wasn't anyone on that show I didn't love.
From around the same eara Chuck and Eureka are pretty fun and lighthearted as well.
My thought would be yes. Personality I don't trust games requiring internet that have no online functionality or when using non multiplayer modes.
Installing mods from nexus in the past I have ran into several PUA and one virus modding original skyrim years ago. These were rare though and I haven't run into one in a while. I'm an avid modder running 400+ mods in skyrimAE and fo4. Most mod makers just want to make the game better but there is potential for those who have other thing on their minds.
I have also seen on r/piracy that rock star was supposedly selling cracked copies on steam. While I don't believe all cracked copies contain malicious scripts, viruses, rootkits etc the potential is there and sometimes what you might think are trusted sources might not be so trustworthy.
On Linux I run steam in a sandbox often disallowing internet. Whatever data collection is limited to playtime and in game choices.
It all boil's down to trust and there bring money and motive in the breach thereof. Multimillion dollar companies have shown their greed and I have removed my trust.
Personaly I like Nuka Cola.
You might want to check out this github link privacy.sexy. It has a bunch if scripts to do all sorts of things. It also has a GUI to customize your script the way you want. Disable telemetry, uninstall default programs like edge and skype. You can setup a task to run on interval's of your choosing.
I run Linux on all my computers but one tablet/computer and have used privacy.sexy since I bought it. It seems to work well and you can roll back your changes you make if you like or if their script brakes something you need.
