🤯 This is a website, a simple web-based game built with WebGL and Three.js. Website: messenger.abeto.co It's honestly surprising how far web development has come.

W Kielcach powstanie pomnik pamięci ofiar ukraińskiego ludobójstwa na Polakach (Rzezi Wołyńskiej). Zwycięski projekt autorstwa Kingi Smacznej-Łagowskiej i Alberta Kozaka przedstawia małą, osamotnioną, płaczącą dziewczynkę – bez butów, w porwanej sukience – trzymającą niebieski kwiat lnu. Symbol torturowanych dzieci, kobiet i cywilów, którzy ginęli w bestialski sposób tylko za to, że byli Polakami. Na brzegach niskiego, białego marmurowego postumentu zostaną wyryte nazwy miejscowości, po których nie został ślad...Pomnik ma stanąć na Skwerze Szarych Szeregów. To ważny, godny i surowy w formie monument – bez drastycznych scen, a jednak przejmujący do głębi. Pamiętamy. Nie zapomnimy.

I'm finally reading Dune. This quote, which is in the first few pages, hits hard: "Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."

Welcome back to the Colony! The long-awaited day has finally arrived! We finally get the return of the game - GOTHIC 1 Remake ⚔️🔥 In my humble opinion, the most iconic game of all time 😁 What an incredible adventure getting to be part of a game I’ve loved since childhood. To this day, I haven’t found another game with this kind of atmosphere. If you want to get stronger, you have to find a master willing to teach you… In the near future, getting in touch with me might be a bit difficult 😉 #GothicForLife #Gothic #GothicRemake #ReturnToTheColony @gothicthegame *My character is an NPC.

Ubisoft CEO is today having an "invitation-only" meeting with the European Commission, hosted by VGE, 2 weeks before the EC planned answer to our ECI. SKG was not invited. Thus, we publish an Open Letter, that we invite everyone of you to read it and share it for visibility.

Pani @AGajewska jeszcze w 2023 roku uważała zakaz smartfonów w szkołach za „średniowiecze” - bo wiecie, wtedy Minister @CzarnekP to proponował A dziś? Dziś całym sercem projekt popiera 🤡 I dobrze, że popiera, ale właśnie przez takie partyjniactwo nie możemy mieć ładnych rzeczy

To all correspondents trying to understand the Polish-Ukrainian dispute over OUN-UPA symbols: a brief compendium. This is not an “old Eastern European quarrel.” This is about genocide, unburied victims, and present-day political decisions that cross a moral line. In 2022, Poles showed what real solidarity means. We opened our homes, cities, schools, train stations, and hearts to millions of Ukrainians fleeing Russian aggression. Many of us, myself included, volunteered to help people escaping war. We did not do it for a reward. We did not ask for payment, gratitude, or political concessions. We did it out of compassion, decency, and the belief that Ukraine was defending itself against Russian imperialism. But many Poles believed one thing would now be obvious: that the people and organizations responsible for murdering Polish civilians would not be elevated again as public symbols, military traditions, or objects of state honor. That is why OUN-UPA symbolism hurts so deeply. OUN and UPA are not abstract “resistance symbols” to Poles. They are associated with the organized murder of Polish civilians in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia: women, children, the elderly, entire villages, people killed because they were Polish. The Volhynia massacres were genocide. For decades, Polish families have asked for something basic: exhumations, graves, crosses, names, and the right to bury their dead with dignity. Not revenge. Not humiliation of Ukraine. Just truth and burial. Only now, very slowly, are the first decisions and works beginning. So when contemporary Ukrainian leaders honor figures connected with the OUN tradition, or when modern Ukrainian units inherit UPA traditions, Poles do not hear a nuanced lecture about anti-Soviet resistance. They see the symbols of those who murdered their relatives placed back on banners. This is happening now, after 2022, after Poland helped millions of Ukrainians, after one of the greatest acts of civilian solidarity in modern Europe. The issue is not that Poles want to weaken Ukraine. We do not equate Ukraine with Russia. We do not deny Ukraine’s right to defend itself. Poland has been one of Ukraine’s strongest supporters, militarily, politically, socially, and morally. But support for Ukraine against Russian aggression cannot require silence about the murder of Polish civilians. Solidarity cannot mean pretending that symbols associated with ethnic cleansing and genocide are harmless, “complicated,” or merely “historical.” A democratic Ukraine deserves support precisely because it is not Russia. And because it is not Russia, it should be able to face historical truth, respect the victims, and understand why its neighbors cannot be expected to celebrate those responsible for their suffering. The essential point is this: Polish anger over OUN-UPA symbols is not anti-Ukrainian. It is anti-genocide. Anti-amnesia. Pro-truth. Poland stood with Ukraine when it mattered most. But solidarity cannot mean silence when the symbols of those who murdered our families are placed back on banners. Spread it out.

🇵🇱 Alleged database belonging to Home.pl has been advertised on a cybercrime forum, with the threat actor claiming to possess approximately hundreds of thousands of customer records containing account, contact, and website activity data. * Threat actor claims the dataset originates from Home.pl, one of Poland’s largest hosting and domain service providers * Advertised data includes customer names, email addresses, postal addresses, usernames, phone numbers, dates of birth, and account metadata * Login password hashes are reportedly included rather than plaintext passwords * Additional records allegedly contain website session tracking data, user activity metrics, engagement statistics, and marketing campaign information * Dataset appears to combine CRM, web analytics, and customer management records * Potential Impact: * Targeted phishing campaigns against Home.pl customers * Credential cracking attempts against hashed passwords * Account takeover risks where passwords are reused elsewhere * Enhanced social engineering using personal and account information * Business intelligence exposure through marketing and engagement data * Analyst Note: The advertised structure resembles a blend of CRM, customer support, web analytics, and marketing datasets. The presence of password hashes, customer contact information, and website session data would make the dataset particularly valuable for cybercriminals if authentic. At this stage, the origin of the data and any attribution to Home.pl remain unverified and require independent validation. #DDW #Intelligence #Poland #HomePL

There is a solution against slow syscalls - to convert your service into a unikernel similar to @nanovms ( nanovms.com/ ) or unikraft ( unikraft.org/ ). Then syscalls are replaced with regular function calls with the minimum overhead. This allows achieving significant performance boost in busy services - hackernoon.com/faster-than-l… . If you aren't familiar with unikernels, I suggest practicing the following great tutorial - labs.iximiuz.com/tutorials/u…

Curious what is a system call and why it takes much more CPU time comparing to a regular function call (1000x more)? Then read this article. Then you'll understand why it is better to use read/write buffers in order to minimise the number of syscalls in hot paths when working with network and filesystem.

My new article, "System Calls", is the second piece in my Linux kernel series, and it picks up right where the boot article left off. When the kernel handed control to `/sbin/init` at the end of boot, it didn't give up power - it just changed mode. Userspace is sandboxed by hardware. `bash` can't print to the terminal, `cat` can't read a file, `curl` can't send a packet. Everything has to go through the kernel via system calls. One thing that you need to know is syscalls are NOT a function calls. It's a full hardware privilege transition. The `syscall` instruction itself does surprisingly little - saves two registers and jumps to a fixed address. The kernel has to do the hard work in hand-written assembly before any C code is allowed to run the real syscalls' specific handlers. Read it here: internals-for-interns.com/po… #Linux #Kernel

🚨 Ongoing supply chain attack on Composer packages! We just found multiple laravel-lang/* packages compromised on Packagist (lang, http-statuses, attributes). Payload runs at autoload time. At least 50 package versions were compromised. If you installed a compromised version, the malware already executed. Pin to a clean COMMIT (not version) and rotate secrets immediately. If your lockfile already had an older commit from before today, you are safe. But you should not update at the moment.

For us the most important thing is that people can play on launch date and time. To achieve that we sent out copies earlier. Gothic 1 Remake will need a download of around 5 GB on launch day and will then be fully playable offline - NO permanent internet connection is needed.
Cancel your pre-orders! Gothic Remake is unplayable offline. THQ is withholding this info from customers! No proper marking on the package. No notice on the store page. This was discovered through a copy of the game that was sent early by the official THQ Store.
