What worked for me was to stop seeing friends that smoked and to go for a run every time I felt like getting a cigarette, instead of getting the cigarette.

These are the things I look for when looking for the mother of my kids. Sorry not sorry.

Some you need to see to get the references:

  • Soylent green
  • 1984 (or read the book of course)
  • Inception
  • Everything by Stanley Kubrick and Tarantino

Food for thought:

  • Free Rainer

For something (more) crazy:

  • The Holy Mountain

With that logic we should give everyone a nuclear bomb and teach them not to press the button. Let's see how that works out.

Big tegh companies spend billions on ways to influence your behaviour, making it even difficult for adults to not fall for their traps, let alone kids with still very much underdeveloped brains. Just look at all the stupid things you had done when you were a kid.

My point is that there is no real way to explain what "vegan" really is, since it means different things to different people and all of these people have the best intentions. And actually there is no real need to define "vegan" either. Instead of focussing on what to call "vegan" and what not, the discussion should be about bees.

For instance, do they care if you take their honey? Are they harmed? And should I care about whether they are harmed?

Sorry, but Spotify Discover Weekly of course.

And I also always have Shazam ready to go for when out and about.

True. Though marketing is a cancer in itself. But I guess that's a different discussion 😬

You've clearly never seen "Zwartboek" or "Turks Fruit".

Not bad.

 

So my company is investigating whether it's worth it to use ThreatDown (the corporate version of Malwarebytes) for endpoint-protection.

However, recently (October 9th) a critical vulnerability in Firefox was reported by Mozilla: CVE-2024-9680.

The "strange" thing is that there was no mention of this vulnerability in ThreatDown when I checked after the weekend (October 14th):

(screenshot shows issues that ThreatDown did find, sorted from worst to least bad.

Even though the version of Firefox did contain the vulnerability:

And Locize did run several scans on this endpoint in the mean time:

We contacted ThreatDown about this and the next day the vulnerability suddenly shows up in ThreatDown:

To me it feels like we had to notify ThreatDown about the vulnerability, instead of them notifying us, which is the exact opposite of what we are paying them for, right?

Is this a strange conclusion? What is your experience with them? Any other comments/ideas/things we are missing?
