When sex workers said the porn restrictions would spread to other sites, you didn't listen.
When it spread to social media, you still didn't listen, you said it would stop there.
It's still spreading further and further

I was hoping to close the book on the Nikke launcher situation this week. After more testing, I can't, there are still unresolved security problems with the PC launcher.
I've sent a full report to the publisher (LI) and to national CERTs in Singapore, Korea, Japan and the US, with a 30-day deadline to fix them.

You can use the following tool to determine what was sent to the attacker. Blog posts for the non-technical coming soon. TLDR attacker got access to a site used for updating the game client and shipped a malicious dll.

THIS IS ANOTHER REMINDER THAT REPUBLICANS SET UP MASSIVE HEALTH CARE CUTS DESIGNED TO RAISE HEALTHCARE PREMIUMS IN 2027! THEY DID THIS IN THE FINE PRINT OF THEIR BIG RIP OFF BILL TO ENGINEER A PROBLEM TO BLAME DEMOCRATS FOR IN THE 2028 ELECTION! THEY KNEW THEY WOULD LOSE THE MIDTERMS SO THEY DID THIS TO PREPARE! THEY SCREWED YOU FOR POLITICS! SINGLE ISSUE BILLS TO REVERSE THESE CUTS MUST BE SENT TO TRUMP’S DESK EVERY SINGLE DAY TO FORCE THE REPUBLICANS TO OWN THIS! IF NOTHING IS DONE, PRICES WILL INCREASE MASSIVELY AND TRUMP WILL BLAME THE NEW DEMOCRATS IN OFFICE. GO ON OFFENSE TO SAVE THE PUBLIC FROM THE REPUBLICAN WAR ON AMERICA!

They built concentration camps and were planning to arrest people for not pledging their submissive fealty to Trump.
Now is not the time for reconciliation. Now is not the time to forgive and forget.
We want accountability, justice and lengthy prison terms. And we want it now.

SPREAD THIS FAR AND WIDE: Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill was designed to leave Americans feeling the pain long after Republicans passed it.
When the worst cuts hit, don’t suddenly blame Democrats.
REPUBLICANS WROTE IT. REPUBLICANS PASSED IT. REPUBLICANS OWN IT.
Don’t let them rewrite history.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW THAT THE REPUBLICANS DESIGNED THEIR HEALTHCARE CUTS TO TAKE AFFECT STARTING IN 2027 BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO CREATE A PROBLEM TO BLAME DEMOCRATS FOR! THEY KNEW THEY WOULD LOSE, SO THEY MADE YOUR LIFE MORE EXPENSIVE TO GIVE THEMSELVES A TALKING POINT!

In Fahrenheit 451, the chief book-burner, Captain Beatty, describes how reading became obsolete because the public demanded increasingly fast-paced entertainments, and those entertainments slowly corroded their ability to think. “Books cut shorter. Condensations. Digests, tabloids. Everything boils down to the gag, the snap ending. Classics cut to fit fifteen-minute radio shows, then cut again to fill a two-minute book column … Many were those whose sole knowledge of Hamlet was a one-page digest in a book that claimed, ‘Now at last you can read all the classics.’ … School is shortened, discipline relaxed, philosophies, histories, languages dropped, English and spelling gradually neglected, finally almost completely ignored. Life is immediate, the job counts, pleasure lies all about after work. Why learn anything save pressing buttons, pulling switches?”
In this passage Ray Bradbury foretells the intellectual hollowing out of the working class, the advent of AI-generated “summaries” of classic novels, the attention-frying culture of short-form video, the relaxation of educational standards into non-existence. All of this in a book published in 1953.

The timing here seems odd…coincidental right?
October 7th: Ukraine blew up the Yandex data center in Russia which housed two out of the company’s three main AI supercomputers.
October 9th: A second Yandex facility was hit.
October 11th: A third Yandex data center was knocked out forcing Yandex to relocate its remaining supercomputing assets.
October 14th: A major Russian data center and AI hub under construction was destroyed.
Also October 14th: SpaceX disrupts Ukraine’s Starshield service, hindering Ukrainian drone capabilities and defense operations. Musk blames Trump, Trump blames Musk. Rubio and Hegseth deny responsibility.
October 18th: A data center dedicated to Russia’s largest social media platform was hit.
October 24th: After global pushback against Musk, Trump and SpaceX, Ukraine’s Starshield service was partially restored.
November 3rd: Republicans suffer their biggest election loss since 1974. Democrats flipped at least 42 Congressional seats, 5 Gubernatorial Offices and 12 state houses.
Also November 3rd: After months of posting doom and gloom about potential Democrat wins, and rather than posting live updates from his fancy “real time results” app, Musk became eerily quiet.
November 4th: Musk deleted several posts related to election outcomes.

They knew about the issue, replaced some of the files, then proceeded to say NOTHING for 10 hours while everyone was freaking out, trying to secure their PCs, wallets and accounts, while navigating bad advice and misinformation online. Only for them to post a statement that didn't address anything and treated this as just a minor issue we needn't worry about, before proceeding to leave us in the dark for another 20 hours.
They handled this so beyond poorly.
Whose fault the breach was can wait.
Who was in charge while it was live is the real question, and the answer is nobody.
Level Infinite, Tencent and Shift Up shared one problem and three excuses. The chair stayed empty… so I sat in it. 💜

'Thursday' comes from the Old Norse 'thōrsdagr,' which loosely translates to 'Thor's Day.'
So bring the thunder today.

He blows up six data centers in Russia and suddenly every Republican loses their election. 🤔

The “big beautiful bill” goes into effect in January btw. The same month all the new midterm positions are being sworn in so don’t let people try to blame everyone losing their healthcare on the new democrats.
Heavyoak retweeted
Friendly reminder: The Big Beautiful Bill was written, passed, and signed by REPUBLICANS! 218 Republican votes in the House, 50 in the Senate, with JD Vance breaking the tie! NOT ONE Democrat voted for it!
Trump signed it into law July 4, 2025! So when the consequences hit…DON’T blame Democrats! Good day!
