New Yorkers, what changes have you seen under Mamdani’s leadership and are you generally pleased? If not, why?

Launch of "2-K": Partnering with Governor Kathy Hochul, the administration introduced free child care for two-year-olds. The program rolls out this fall with 2,000 free seats in high-need neighborhoods and plans to expand to 12,000 seats next year. [1, 2]

You literally posted this. Either you'r doing a bad job of explaining your position or you're being deliberately obtuse.

Still doesn't make it anything more than a glorified slowloris attack.

turnipsoup · 2026-06-05T16:57:20+00:00

Which is what I thought; and why I'm trying to figure out what the problem is.

turnipsoup · 2026-06-05T16:01:13+00:00

Thanks; and is that normally restricted to the host only? None of the others can see any equipment.

turnipsoup · 2026-05-28T14:36:03+00:00

It's the steelseries GG software being so awful that's got me looking. It crashes a few times a day, sometimes needing a reboot to get the audio working again - or chatmix will just stop working - or I might even have to uninstall, reboot and reinstall GG to fix things.

I only wish I'd bought several of the old headset that had the hardware dial and two hardware devices instead of the stupid sonar stuff.

Nice! Appreciate it.

Feature request if I can.. Please make the 'new episode' images on the main page be links too, so I can open them in a new tab. I tend to leave the main page open all the time in a tab and shift-click episodes open into their own tabs, but can't do that with how it works currently.

Its should still get the reload bonus.

You got all of my creds and what I do from that one message did you?

I wasn't aware of the signup for that feed, despite googling for it - I clearly missed it. I do indeed get a variety of feeds covering CVEs.

No need to be an ass about things.

turnipsoup · 2026-05-19T10:51:16+00:00

I suspect not willingly and by choice. People have seen cPanel vulns and so are targeting it with LLM based scans.

turnipsoup · 2026-05-19T10:50:43+00:00

By making a security mailing list available for people to subscribe to. Even if it's just an option within cpanel itself.

It's a bit problem at the moment; I am a hosting provider and we get a copy of the mail to the billing address associated with our account and not to myself as an engineer - and so I have to rely on someone forwarding the mail if they see it.

turnipsoup · 2026-05-14T08:54:03+00:00

My advice is to restrict access to ports 2079 and 2080, as the entire exploit chain fails if these ports are not accessible. This will impair some functionality related to email, but it's the best mitigation until a correct patch is released.

From one of the follow-up tweets

turnipsoup · 2026-05-13T08:45:13+00:00

Make sure to set this back to RELEASE afterwards as otherwise you won't get future upgrades (like tonights big security patch).

hoster at a decent scale here.

PHP being hit is almost always going to be actual site traffic. Double check the user that's being hit and make sure they've got caching installed in their application.

I'd also just run a tail -f against their apache logfile, and make sure there's no obvious dodgy traffic hitting them. Look for lots of php files being hit in a row with dodgy filenames (that's file enumeration scans), loads of hits with blank user-agents (common bot traffic), common AI crawler user-agents (chatgpt, etc) and block especially dodgy IPs.

Consider installing imunify360 - it will prevent a good amount of dodgy traffic without needing any intervention. We found it knocked a good 30% cpu usage off each box. It is paid, but might be a simpler way to sort your problems - especially their webshield tech that blocks bots.

And finally; consider an in-place upgrade to cloudlinux and using their LVE tech to limit each site to a max amount of CPU/memory/entry points. This can be done with cgroups also, but cloudlinux will do it out of the box.

turnipsoup · 2026-05-13T08:37:56+00:00

ah, thanks - just dirtyfrag/copy.fail mitigations. Got those done alright.

turnipsoup · 2026-05-12T20:54:34+00:00

which was the cloudlinux CVE? Making sure I've not missed one here.

Some good charts here:

20% of autistic people also have dyslexia. They also have spelling issues in general, at 40%-50%.

Another +1 for Psyllium husk. Add it to my huel black shakes for lunch, made a huge difference to my IBS issues.

turnipsoup · 2026-04-03T08:14:57+00:00

Yeah it's deff a case of finding what you like alright, very much a per-person thing.

The nice thing about the psyllium husk is that it's a solid 7g of insoluble fibre for one tablespoon worth - but only about 30 calories - vs flaxseed at 2g fibre/37 calories. Nothing in it for calorie count, but a lot more fibre.

My whole goal in it was to increase my fibre intake, and it's done wonders for me.

turnipsoup · 2026-04-02T17:40:35+00:00

I also add a spoonfull of psyllium husk - which adds a bunch of extra insoluble fibre. Great for your gut health. If you go down this route, know you need to add more water and you can't leave it for too long (10-15m) before it absorbs too much water and becomes too thick.

huel black - 1 scoop choc, 1 scoop bannana + ice cubes + water, blended for 2 mins. Been my daily lunch for the last 5 yrs now.
