It’s worth noting that while the Security Explorations project focused on Kigen products, eUICC/eSIM chips from several other vendors may be vulnerable to similar attacks as the underlying issue is related to a series of vulnerabilities found in Oracle’s Java Card technology.

The Java Card flaws were disclosed by Security Explorations in 2019, but Oracle and SIM card manufacturers using the technology downplayed their potential impact at the time.

In order to conduct an attack, the attacker needs temporary physical access to the device with the targeted eSIM. The goal is to extract a key that allows the installation of a malicious Java Card application.

while China continues to lead in terms of new fabs coming online, the country also leads in terms of fab shells that never got equipped or put to work, thus becoming zombie fabs. Over the past several years, around a dozen high-profile fab projects, which cost investors between $50 billion and $100 billion, went bust.

My gut says "Yes." I only first saw Spongebob recently, as my kids got into it; I had no idea how strange it is. There is definitely a weird and sometimes creepy Ren & Stimpy-ish vibe going on.

I dont think that is especially controversial.

Skin-on-skin time is not only beneficial for the baby. Parents need bonding time (read: oxytocin) with the infant so they dont smother it when the little asshole wakes them up for the 500th time, screaming for no apparent reason.

Jellyfin, I guess. I currently use plex for music and video (eary lifetime pass), but 10 more years of enshitification is too much time for any for-profit endeavor. Profit motive ruins everything it touches. For anything long-term open source options with a community are important. I have seen too many potentially great projects fail because the lone author had kids or fell ill or just got bored.

No mystery at all. These are great in a business or institutional setting. Author clearly never taught any kind of class.

That is quite different from a talk by Carl Sagan I saw when I was a kid... which is ironic because that likely what Michio Kaku is sort of imitating.

Circadian biology here.

I once helped with an experiment that sent beetles up in the space shuttle (yes, I am old) in Beetle Activity Monitors, in order to study their circadian rhythms in microgravity.

Okay, this didn't make me twitch at all. Nope.

 

I was annoyed by MAC Randomization on my own network and wondered whether there are any effective attacks to re-id devices.

Sure enough.

I guess it's officially time to recommence the yearly grind of yard maintenance. We didnt even get to enjoy a respite, with all the snow we had.

 

AI by itself doesn't bother me per se (I'm not OP.) What bothers me is content is inaccurate or obviously just garbage. Unfortunately, it's the toupee fallacy again.

 

Google has started automatically blocking emails sent by bulk senders who don't meet stricter spam thresholds and authenticate their messages as required by new guidelines to strengthen defenses against spam and phishing attacks.

As announced in October, the company now requires those who want to dispatch over 5,000 messages daily to Gmail accounts to set up SPF/DKIM and DMARC email authentication for their domains.
