  • I'm not sure there's any way of knowing that for sure actually... since it was a clientside exploit. it would have been anyone browsing the megathread (or anywhere else the attacker posted, I think it was just the mega?) in that 30 min window would have had their token sent to the attacker's server (exposing their IP if they were not using a VPN). Then if the attacker used the token they could have logged in and viewed profile settings (of which really the only sensitive one is email I would think) or DMs. I can't think of a simple way to prove whether or not the attacker did so, but given their MO and relative lack of sophistication I'd guess they weren't interested in user info, just defacing the site by gaining admin accounts, which they failed to do. I assume the 3 accounts were the ones that posted the gore or targeted admins with the stealer via DM.




  • They usually work, though many bt headphones and many devices that connect to them are flaky, bad range, dumb broken features, etc. but most of all I just detest the concept of taking something dead simple that will just work for decades unless you like, break the wires or speakers, and turning it into another disposable device that will die in at most like 3-4 years because the non replaceable batteries wear out or the electronics shit the bed.

    I have headphones from the soviet union that still work fine with modern equipment, I have 40 year old koss headphones that still sound nice, etc. bluetooth shit is inherently disposable.

    eh I like the way it turbocharged lemmy (and I only browse there with libreddit when it gets linked or comes up in search results so nothing is changing for me really )

    I mean there's a lot of shitty redditors flowing into lemmy, but at least its mostly the leftlib anti-corporate redditors, a lot of them aren't even hardline anti-communists which is nice. If mastodon is anything to go by, lemmy will remain a viable if niche alternative and the enshittification will continue, driving further waves of people away.

    Its not like the less reactionary posters are just gone, they've just dispersed to elsewhere on the internet (or will cave and go back to reddit soon, hard to say)

    yeah instagram users but basically. I assume all the content farmers and bots are jumping on it, plus some fraction of the 1.6 billion instagram users, since the accounts are inextricably linked for now it does make it easy to sign up anyhow.





  • Aceivan [they/them]toaskchapoHow do you view crushes?

    Idk I would consider that upfront lust to be a crush. I mean maybe a bit of that damn they're attractive hitting you all at once, but to me the crush is more just the "can't stop thinking about them" part, and while maybe you do sorta want to fuck right away, I think it's just a reasonable adult thing to do to try to get to know someone a bit more if your interest is romantic not just sexual. Especially considering you might get to know them and realize they aren't who you thought they were at all.

    Everyone is different, some people go straight to gettin it on, and more power to them, but I think your perspective is pretty normal.
