AlphaPhoenix's video about the home-built 2 billion fps camera is one of the coolest videos for a long time. The premise is so simple that anyone (even people without degrees) can follow and understand it. Educational and cool as heck! #alphaphoenix #science #physics

While the latest #ChatControl proposal didn't proceed to a vote, the proponents of the interception of all chat traffic will undoubtedly continue their efforts to get the law passed - like they have for years now. It will resurface shortly, disguised and modified but effectively pushing for the same end result: removal of end-to-end encryption. We must stay vigilant and continue to fight for our freedoms. #StopChatcontrol #privacy

Broadcom has stopped delivering automated updates to #VMware Fusion and Workstation. All updates have to be downloaded and installed manually from the Broadcom Support Portal (as a side note: This portal is one of the worst corporate "support" websites I've seen in the last decade). This is terrible. It will lead to tens of thousands of VMware installations remaining vulnerable to trivially exploitable flaws, for example, local privilege escalation via CVE-2025-41244

BTW, Please note that to fix CVE-2025-41244 you must now manually download the correct VMware Tools package from the support portal, unpack the zip, mount the ISO image, and then execute the setup.exe from the mounted ISO image. There is currently no VMware releases that include the fixed VMware Tools, so if you create any new VMs you MUST install the update manually to each new VM. Did I already mention this is terrible? #enshittification #infosec #cybersecurity
