How is blocking scrapers easy?
This instance receives 500+ IPs with differing user agents all connecting at once but keeping within rate limits by distribution of bots.
The only way I know it’s a scraper is if they do something dumb like using “google.com” as the referrer for every request or by eyeballing the logs and noticing multiple entries from the same /12.
That was a good read, thank you
Yeah this. I dunno what the fuss is about. Its just missing on github is all.
Literally missed the point my comment.
With Windows 10, Microsoft started performing a monthly cumulative updating schedule. Every second Tuesday of the month is “patch day” and a new monthly cumulative update is made available.
There are exceptions to this, for security and bug fixes that can’t wait until the next monthly round-up. So perhaps this month was one of those? But trends are that updates are monthly. I can see it being perceived as more often, as the update is forced onto us, with a reboot, which can be frustrating.
Azure servers now support reboot-less updating, hopefully that makes its way to consumer products, but who knows.
Microsoft has always had a bad rep for their OS being full of holes and getting exploited. However some of this was due to users not updating. Microsoft would patch an issue, but huge swaths of unpatched Windows machines would be exploited and used as botnets. I think the forced updates were in response to this situation. Not that I agree with it.

Is once a month “very, very frequent”?

What’s stopping the malware just blowing the disks away? You keep backups disconnected right?
We have backyard chickens. The huge one was a double yoker and delicious 😋
Many malicious actors don’t trigger their payload that you would notice until after data has been mined.
I’ve visited businesses to help put together basic infrastructure after their systems were encrypted and ransomed. We would bring up a backup from the night before only to find the system still infected. We would go back a week, 2 weeks, a month.
These things lie in wait and only as the final nuclear option do they get noticed.
Oh okay. We shall continue to wait then :)
Whaaaaaaaaat?!
My wife and I were looking forward to this. We played the original together a bunch of times.
Oh well, thanks for sharing, will go look for something else. Damn.
But the vast majority of viruses focus on end users.
I think it was missing an “/s”
If the trend continues then maybe the hacker community will start focusing on Linux. Can you imagine “I don’t need a virus scanner, I use Windows, the under dog OS”
I’ve been a Linux sysadmin for decades and Windows for the year 8 years or so. I started using Windows with an air of contempt, and still do. I hate myself for saying this, but Powershell is better than bash. Bash is very limited if you consider only bash. For bash to be useful you need the entire GNU suite with grep, cut, awk etc.
Is this real? You can get woken up in the middle of the night to get moved to a new room? I’d say fuck off
Seeing steam at the top makes me question the list. Likely a hate of DRM rather than privacy
