Sometimes you come across interesting facts. Word "pseudo" has pronunciation of "soodo" which is very similar to famous Linux command sudo. So my guess command sudo came from word pseudo which make sense.

Here is the link for FTC statement https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/blogs/techftc/2022/01/ftc-warns-companies-remediate-log4j-security-vulnerability

I hope by now everyone knows what Log4j is and how dangerous it could be given 10 points on CVE score. Microsoft Threat Intelligence Center published guidance where they observer toolkits being updated with exploits for Log4j. Also FTC issues statement to go after companies who failed to remediate Log4j it's getting very serious folks. https://www.microsoft.com/security/blog/2021/12/11/guidance-for-preventing-detecting-and-hunting-for-cve-2021-44228-log4j-2-exploitation/

Here we go again, another example of outright censorship. It's not even about policy, Twitter simply clearing our people they don't like. That's why I use Mastodon and highly recommend it to everyone as the one way stay free in your expression. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/02/technology/marjorie-taylor-greene-twitter.html

Facepalm vulnerability in a patch for critical Log4j vulnerability. We are getting into recursion I guess. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2021/12/patch-fixing-critical-log4j-0-day-has-its-own-vulnerability-thats-under-exploit/

If you are not yet tired from Log4j discussions and memes, here is most recent finding, sounds like fun to be continued.

Looks like bad guys never sleep or just decided to play Grinch: WordPress sites are under attack if you had one of the compromised plugins update it immediately. https://www-bleepingcomputer-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/massive-attack-against-16-million-wordpress-sites-underway/amp/

Been experimenting with ESP8266 NodeMCU. Apparently using D8 for input puts is a bad idea, back to drawing board to resolder some components.

Sometimes ignorance of manufacturers is astonishing, and being Linux user you have to fight through that ignorance every day. So I am glad to announce that I completed quest of connecting those headphones to my laptop. Those won't pair, for no reason, so as a work around I had to trust that device in bluetoothctl then I removed device from BT setting and then :) I was finally able to pair. Beats decided to ignore part of the market, for no reason, but sounds is comparable to my Sennheiser.

Feeling lucky, got that prize at #CSC9 as usual really awesome conference put together by NTXISSA

Awesome, we are getting schooled on what you should not do as you deliver presentations. Basically master class on how you can take very interesting subject and ruin it by delivery, I am debating with myself on whether I should jump in front of the audience and offer to deliver presentation off of his slides. Unfortunate anomaly at the really awesome conference. #CSC9
