They finally did it. Microsoft has successfully over-engineered a text editor into a threat vector.

This CVE is an 8.8 severity RCE in Notepad of all things lmao.

Apparently, the "innovation" of adding markdown support came with the ability of launching unverified protocols that load and execute remote files.

We have reached a point where the simple act of opening a .md file in a native utility can compromise your system. Is nothing safe anymore? 😭

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the United States is not ready to implement its proposals on Ukraine made in Anchorage. He said sanctions pressure on Russia continues and described it as an economic war, accusing Washington of trying to push Russian energy out of markets and impose US LNG. Lavrov said Russia remains open to cooperation but claims the US is creating artificial barriers by not lifting restrictions. #Ukraine

‘Guilty of not betraying #Ukraine’. russia’s supreme court imposes 13-year sentence against Oksana Hladkykh

"She was not afraid to tell the invaders to their face what she thought of them. Her abduction was a warning to us all – so that we would be afraid to say a word against russia.”

Mastodon friends, I need help! I have been able to migrate my Peertube over to my new hosting but Peertube fails to move files to object storage after uploading them. I've tried everything I can think of. If anyone knows anything about Peertube and wants to help, DM me!

We also left some stickers with our friends at the @matrix stand! You might find me hanging around there as well.

I heard Meta, Reddit, and other corporate owned social media are blocking links to https://icelist.is

Whatever you do, don't go to https://icelist.is

Definitely don't spin up a caching reverse proxy that mirrors https://icelist.is/

Doing that would make Zuck sad

@catsalad
Dear US people: If you come to Europe, you need to first get a Celsius license, learn the meter and kilo/centi/milli modifiers.

Also, you cannot bring your guns and you cannot just buy new ones either. Furthermore, you might be asked to ride a bicycle/train/bus during your stay.

And last, do not tell people you love their accent. Most of them prefer another language and are accomodating for your lack of skill.😅🙃

@soatok Sorry to hear that. Take care of yourself and hope you feel better soon
