With Cyberpunk 2077 "complete and fixed", I'm finally checking it out. Been using the Welcome to Night City modpack. Act 1 and all the content in Watson (starting area) was amazing. Very immersive. Completed all of that, about halfway through Judy's missions, and most of Panam's missions. I think I'm around 40 hours in.

Quality starts dipping outside of the main story missions outside of Watson. Nothing so far has been anywhere close to bad, and there's still some absolutely amazing things sprinkled here and there, but it's frustrating how just good some of it is given how strong the start is.

It's incredibly obvious that the game was meant to be much more. Like Watson district's fixer (person who gives you missions) has 39 gigs, and she has Cyberpsycho fights across the whole map. I don't think any other fixer has more than 15 gigs for their own area, and most don't have any other "gimmick" missions like the Cyberpsycho missions.

I'm already planning to replay it with mods that add more gang activity and give the gangs "memory" so they hold grudges if you keep doing missions against them. Also, unscaling the stat checks. Stupid that I go from being able to comment on certain topics (the psuedomyth of Rache Bartmoss specifically) in conversations to not being able to because I got too high a level and the stat check jumped from 10 to 15.

I don't know how to put it. The great stuff is some of the best gaming experience I've had in a long time, where I can't wait to get back to it. Most of the game is good, but not "can't wait to get back into it". But there's a big feeling of missing "what could have been".

Like the Watson Fixer Regina has extra rewards for you capturing Cyberpsychos alive, but in any of the actual fixer gigs with Cyberpsychos it doesn't matter if you kill them or incapacitate and Regina has no comments on it. There's a lot of emphasis put on customizing your character for you to not see them outside of a few cutscenes (most are first person) and driving a motorcycle. Lots of NPC visual cyberware just isn't available for the player character.

Maybe it's just residuals from the collective overhyping of the game, but I feel it hard when stuff like that pulls me out of things.

If you like the open world free roam stuff, I cannot recommend the Infinite Heaven mod/mod framework enough.

The second. News would need to originate here. Places would need to start seeing the fediverse as a source.

Doesn't matter how big a community is if they don't do anything worth reporting on. Citing comments as "man on the street" style opinions generally doesn't happen until after we have eyes on us.

At least that was how things worked with 4chan and reddit begining to be mentioned in news.

Ahh, the good old "shit yourself" diet

By flying there

Not at all, you're absolutely right. In the Varonis article this clickbaity one references, they list out the corresponding session cookies for Google's cloud platform and AWS as well.

Posting something that pretty clearly reveals your age to be definitely under 25, but most likely also under 18, from an information security focused instance?

That is some god awful opsec, assuming you're trying to stay anonymous. (I say with an account having posted some pretty identifying personal life stories, but I'm also not posting from an infosec focused instance)

As others have said, you're willfully missing the subtext. Which is that they think you spend too much time on your phone and are missing out on other enriching things in life. Like maybe spending time with them, or making friends irl. Go touch some grass.

I strongly suspect that you do not currently have one of those jobs you're referencing. Which makes it a moot point. You're not practicing for a desk job by farting around online.

At that point why bother?

What a clickbait title. It notably does not provide persistance beyond the length of the session they steal the auth for. So max of 90 days but only in an environment that allows the "keep me signed in" checkbox with the longest time allowance. Don't be a dummy with your settings. No methods given to pivot directly to longer persistance, just some vague situational hypotheticals.

This is nothing new. The Varonis page linked to by this article is an educational proof of concept guide to how an attacker could leverage a number of things that have existed for a while, showing just how far an attacker can get if they manage to snag the session cookie for an authenticated Azure (or other cloud service) session.

It includes some example code for a cookie stealer chrome extension, PowerShell code for temporarily deploying said extension to a local Chrome install, links some tools, and provides instructions on how to pivot the session cookie into other info and the actual session and refresh tokens.

Stop relying on your mind and rely on things like the email itself and/or a calendar app.

Plenty of people need to take notes and use calendars and alarms to keep track of their scheduled events. You just have the amazing adhd privilege of needing to get used to that practice before you're swamped with more work meetings than is sensible.

So... we just doing redraws of ancient xkcd comics now?

Did you just rawdog the home version or something? You gotta use at least some protection man! LTSC Pro install, some debloat scripts... anything but a straight install.

Lord knows what you could have caught!
