Drifter players will genuinely just walk up behind you and stand in a doorway watching you do sinners like a bunch of murderhobo perverts and the character just enables them to do that, and he would 100% do that shit
One of Deadlock's greatest strengths imo is that the character personalities match their gameplay to a T. I think larping is so prevelant in large part because it's easy to feel like you *are* the character you're playing. Lots of kit/character synergy it's fantastic

Tolkien used 'cooked' in precisely the modern sense.

So basically, today PHP got two critical bugs that let anyone run code on your server without even logging in, which is bad, and then the details leaked before the patch was even out, which is worse, and it works on WordPress and MediaWiki and Magento and Joomla and Laravel, and Censys says like 1.5 million servers are running a version with no fix, so the NSA was like "take your system offline," and the FBI was like "take your system offline," and CISA and the UK and CERT-EU were all like "take your system offline," and then the Prime Minister of Japan, the actual Prime Minister, posted at 5:55 in the morning telling 48.8 million people to take their system offline, so everyone took their system offline, like the Dutch cybersecurity agency took its own website offline, and the Dutch parliament went offline, and the Port of Rotterdam went offline, and Finland and France and Denmark started pulling government sites, and Wikipedia went down, and Archive.org went down, and Asana and GOG and Something Awful went down, and the University of Vienna's webmail went down for some reason, and that's just PHP. Because GitLab also dropped a CVSS 10.0, which is the highest score they give out, for a bug that's been there since 2014, so that's every self-hosted GitLab for twelve years, and then LiteLLM 1.107.0 got hijacked and shipped a credential stealer and a remote access trojan in every single wheel and the Docker images, including latest, and you didn't even have to import it, just installing it was enough, and it's the second time this year, and then Railway paused every deployment on the entire platform because someone got into the environment variables, so now everyone has to rotate every secret they've ever stored there, and TiDB Cloud said someone was walking around inside with stolen credentials for basically a month and an extortion group says they took 10.6 terabytes, and Zeabur got breached for the second time in two months and is just shutting down, like the whole company, and Node.js patched remote code execution and a TLS bypass, and CISA says Plex is being actively exploited, and someone took over 300 Tor exit relays to steal SSH passwords, and SafePay ransomware has hit over 600 critical infrastructure orgs, and India's biggest bank filed a data loss incident, and Japan has been in an official state of emergency in cyberspace since October 9, which honestly explains the 5:55 AM post. Oh, and eMudhra, a certificate authority that's issued over 60 million certificates, whose entire job is proving websites are who they say they are, was supposed to be using private keys that are random numbers over a hundred digits long, and one of them was 4. Just 4. And the others were like 66 and 237. Anyway, it's Wednesday.

wake up babe, every version of PHP for the past 17 years has two critical bugs and now 74.5% of the internet is broken lol. there's a patch coming out tomorrow but until then most of the internet has open backdoors that allow unauthorized remote code execution

a critical vulnerability was just discovered in PHP. the language that runs 80% of the internet severity score: 9.2 out of 10. that’s about as bad as it gets what can an attacker do with this? take full admin control of a server. steal entire databases. passwords, credit cards, payment histories. plant malware and use the server to attack other systems but here’s the terrifying part that most people missed the moment the patch drops tonight attackers are expected to use AI to reverse engineer what was fixed within 15 minutes 15 minutes. that’s the window between the fix going live and automated attacks launching worldwide every online store, booking site, and corporate system running PHP that doesn’t update in those 15 minutes becomes a target this isn’t just a developer problem. if you’ve ever signed up to a website, entered your card details, or created an account online your data is sitting on servers that might be vulnerable right now and someone just publicly dropped the working exploit on twitter before the patch was even ready. gave every attacker on earth a head start engineers worldwide are pulling all-nighters tonight to patch their systems before the attacks begin change your passwords on any service that matters to you. enable 2FA everywhere. and watch out for fake “maintenance” or “password reset” emails over the next few days the internet is about to have a very long night

Super Typhoon Champi has possibly achieved the maximum theoretical intensity a storm with an inner core as large as hers can reach on Earth.
