> One of the most notable propagation methods is Ebury using its presence inside data centers to perform AitM attacks at scale on servers deemed to be high value.

what the fuck is an AitM attack?

edit: the term is Adversary in the Middle and it sucks because it's misleading and I was cranky, baby needed his bottle^Wcoffee

@feld Adversary-in-the-Middle.

You take control of something like a phishing site, and tweak their attack into something that will better suit yourself.

One attacker hiding behind another.

shaknais,
@shaknais@mastodon.social avatar

@feld No, a MitM attack, is where you position yourself inbetween the client and their provider.

An AitM is where you hijack someone trying to pull that off. They usually don't realise it's you, and blame the first attacker, as you make off with the goods.

@feld The Adversary in the Middle is the original attacker.

Because between the successful attacker and the target, is a patsy. The original attacker. They're in-between.

We use a new term, because the new attacker isn't usually noticed. They sacrifice the AitM, framing them, and get away scot-free.

@shaknais@mastodon.social avatar

@feld The term for the unnoticed attacker is usually just "the attacker".

e.g. The attacker hid themselves by utilising AitM methodology.

Be honest. Why do you dislike the .webp format? What did it do to you? 🤔

I wonder why Nautilus is so effing slow? Sometimes takes 20 seconds to enter a directory. Does not happen in any other file manager

shaknais,
@shaknais@mastodon.social avatar

@thelinuxcast Two things cause Nautilus to slow down massively, especially compared to other file managers.

First, the preview tech does a ton of stat calls, to work out what to show you. Disable it, and things get about 20% faster. They know about it, but no one has done a patch to fix it in over a decade, so I wouldn't be hopeful.

Secondly, the more bookmarks you have, the slower things get. Every time you open a folder it pings every single bookmark for some reason.

Grumble. is doing my head in. Why do Angular packages create a new package.json in the dist folder and expect you to cd into there before running npm publish?!?!

I have a monorepo with lots of other non-Angular packages. I use Changesets to manage versioning and releases.

Now, because Angular can't just use npm like it's meant to be used, I'm stuck.

shaknais,
@shaknais@mastodon.social avatar

@cirrus Any chance you can just use a symbolic link to work around it?

#WritersCoffeeClub OMG! What happened to your MC's parents?

Nothing. Phoebe is just an accountant. I mean, one who fell through a portal to another world, where she happens to be the subject of prophecy after prophecy...
But she's not a witch. She's rather adamant about that. Even if she managed to summon a wolf made of fire. Or fight an actual witch, spell for spell. Not a witch.

Gruna's family... Well... Or Elion's... Uh... That witch from before? She um... Killed them all. A sacrifice...

The print book is coming. Slowly. But it is coming, too.
