I feel personally attacked. Yes I've actually done this (minus sending them money). I had a server (that I am pretty sure sent headers to the effect that it ran x86) which had some logs indicating someone had tried to download an arm IOT botnet onto it. So I downloaded it and tried running it through a decompiler. I found a UPX stub. The rest was compressed. So I tried the UPX unpacker. This didn't work because it was built with a modified copy of UPX. So I hauled out a raspberry pi, reflashed the OS and tried running it in GDB in hopes of just dumping the unpacked bit from memory. Nothing. So I downloaded qemu and set up an aarch 64 arm 9 image still nothing. So I tried 32 bit arm again in qemu. At this point I gave up

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.

  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
