I appreciate the attempt here with this article, but I am afraid you are missing some important information. I will cover each point:

All this time I thought depleted uranium is what gives Chinese tanks 25% damage bonus after you build the Propaganda Center.

The only issue with your post is that the A-10 isn’t equipped with a GAU-8; it is in fact the GAU-8 that is so awesome, someone decided to strap a plane to it.

It’s the frustrating reality of today’s hyperbole blog reporting. Everything is the best or the worst. Someone gets told off and now they’re “eviscerated.” Or something minor happens that was unexpected and “now I don’t know what’s going on” or “I can’t even.” A new security vulnerability is uncovered so we all need…

Because CLICKCLICKCLICKCLICKbait.

The EFF advice says you should disable tools that *automatically decrypt* emails, and avoid sending and especially reading PGP encrypted emails. So apparently there is risk in the decryption process.

I have to wonder if he ate a Bad Conduct Discharge or got an Other Than Honorable Discharge for his troubles. Either one will definitely screw him over for the rest of his days.

Yes. It is VERY irresponsible to make the claim that EMAIL IS NO LONGER SECURE (not true) so you may as well disable PGP and send everything in clear text.

The call to “disable” PGP is to stop the attack vector. Recall that the article states an attacker takes a previous encrypted email, alters it with a payload and then sends it to the target. The email client with PGP built-in then automatically decrypts this received email, which what allows the attack to succeed.

It’s not only still better than nothing, this is also a pretty unlikely attack vector - especially since you should have disabled loading external images and assets from your email 20 years ago.

Agreed. Thats probably the dumbest advice ever. Ooop, someone MIGHT snoop so might as well shut it off and expose yourself willingly! Also, I have never, ever considered email encrypted or not “secure”. Nothing on the public internet should every be treated as secure. Always at least expect something, like this, to be…

Yeah, my takeaway was rather that we shouldn’t use HTML email, just plaintext, and the PGP will still work. This sounds more like Chicken Little than a responsible security organization.

Before they released the paper, they thought to sign up for their own domain with which to describe it? Give me a freakin’ break.

Maybe the series will illuminate the (IMHO) stellarly bad plot progression that, after all the suffering and loss of IV-VI to destroy the Empire, kill the Emperor, defeat the Sith, and revive the Jedi... VII-VIII show all that mattered not at all. The ‘First Order’ are proxy Empire, the Rebellion are still rag-tag and…

Exactly why he cut the straps remains unclear.

Give it a while. You might learn to like it, once you’re grown up.

The “Law Suit” grants +3 to Sneak attempts but -5 to any Charisma-based skill attempts.

And yet my co-workers give me a hard time over the fact I own one outfit. How would they know it’s me, otherwise?

Well otherwise, how else would you know who is who.

What I don’t get from this sequel is why do they have to treat their character like they have no other wardrobe? Do we expect to have Lando or Han wearing that same outfit for the next 10 years or so?
