My wonderful friends at @hypergiant have started a GFM to help in addition to all the ways they’ve been supporting me. As it turns out, cancer is expensive :(
Thank you all for your love and support and I love you all (even the wackos)

So I guess there’s no easy way to say this but… I have been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. It’s very advanced, inoperable, and we can’t do radiation.
I really don’t know what else to say other than I love you all and I’m gonna fight like hell.

I’ve been in and out of the hospital so much lately that I’ve stopped updating. At one point I even lost the energy to open twitter. At any rate, I’m home, alive, and recovering. I’ve been beat up by several procedures and the side effects of lying in a hospital bed.

I walked around like this for about 3 days. Right lung collapsed for 3 days and I’m like “ehhh… I’m just short of breath.” I’m an idiot
Right lung was fully collapsed. Left still has a big blockage from Larry AND is infected. Might even be pneumonia. I have no idea how I was even breathing. HR was 150 and I was just surviving breath to breath for 3 days.

The bad news is there is a vulnerability in the CUPS printer system on Linux. The good news is nobody has ever gotten their printer working on Linux so they are safe.
The entire disclosure seems to have been leaked online

Here is the report and POC

Marino is every bit the wholesome, awesome, brilliant guy I expected him to be. One selfie down, dozens to go. Who’s next?!

Had a great time learning a bit about your career, life, and just how cool of a dude you are, @0xfraq 😎
Can’t wait to hang out again…up in Canada right? 😊❤️

Unlike @PiedmontHealth, @cityofhope actually cares about patients and IMMEDIATELY moved to fix the problem the other hospital caused. Moral of the story: coordinating between hospitals is terrible and the patient WILL be harmed in the process.
