Penelope passed away peacefully in my arms tonight. We made sure her last few hours were wonderful. I'll describe more later but it involved going to the park, meeting a toad and dark chocolate mousse.
This is the worst day of my life, she was everything to me. I was her Daddy and she was my bouncy, feisty little girl. She knew she was a rough and tumble princess and she acted accordingly. She was always in charge.
I loved her with all of my heart. Every day she was the first person I saw and the last person I saw at night.
I know I'm going to be posting a lot over the coming days but words will never be able to describe the love I had for her and she for me.

We’re excited to roll out Cinny v4 with amazing new features and fixes:
Lobby feature for easier space management Organize spaces into folders and customize room order Multi-room message search with filters Redesigned Explore Community section and new Notification Center Key-based account registration and password reset support
You would think they’d just add these to the list they already use, it’s low hanging fruit. But seems like it’s not worth the effort because it’ll “only” affect a handful of users.
@xogium oddly the same story goes for accessibility-related things, so this is an area in which security and accessibility can intersect in a strange way, too. Until there's mass-exploitation of this (and it's a bit limited of course with requiring Python to be in path to begin with), they may never get to it, it'll stay in Backlog for months, get punted to another team, go to their backlog, maybe a spike gets created over it, yada yada yada

I got my partner - who is non-technical - a Windows laptop for Christmas in 2023. A fancy one with Windows 11, TPM blah blah. Clean install.
It has Defender, Smart App Control enabled etc so I wasn’t concerned about the security.
Anyhoo, just looked at 7 months later and Defender is disabled, a ‘free’ AV called RAV is registered which appears to be a fake Chinese AV, Smart App Control is disabled, her traffic is routed to a Chinese VPN, her browser is Opera GX (a Chinese owned one).
She installed exactly one application, a movie player. It hijacked her entire system. This is why Recall is such a fucking bad idea btw, the idea Windows security is fixed is a joke - home users have no chance against this stuff.

If you could speak to the future, what would you want to ask?
Some matters might just be idle curiosity, but others are life and death. If you only got one question, what would you most desperately want to find out?
Well, good news: the future has just gotten in touch.
