Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?
Interstellar Docking Scene – Recreated in LEGO // Blender Animation
Interstellar is one of my fave movies and this was an amazing job in recreation in lego (Blender)
There are days where I feel this sense of standing on the edge. Not so much a cliff, but the boundary of something to another thing. I spin around a bit looking for a direction to move in, but it's just not obvious.
The feeling subsides when I get out of my head and need to get something done, be it work or family stuff. But it will come back in a strange quiet moment to myself anywhere.
I loved watching Anton in everything he did. One of my favorite up and coming actors. So devastated when I heard the news of his death. He's still one of the best things in the ST newer movies. 💛
"Star Trek" cast pay a beautiful tribute to Anton Yelchin "Love, Antosha." (2019)
How lovely to learn who this person is that we listen to and warned us to be safe on the subway. Voices that I hope we never let AI generation to replace.
HEY HEY LISTEN THE VOICE OF THE MTA TRANSIT SYSTEM, ALL THE ANNOUNCEMENTS ON THE NYC SUBWAY LINE??
SHE'S A TRANS WOMAN AND TRANSITIONED AT 66!!!!!! THE BACKGROUND HUM OF MY CHILDHOOD, AND SHE'S LIKE ME!!!! WHAT THE FUCK
This just seems to work so well lol.
This is ridiculous. I get that if I were to reverse the concept, create a new file type called .com or .net it'd still be a problem but I'm not so sure the new domains were necessary to the whole of the internet. It just means I'll probably never click on one of those links. Can we have the first go at removing a TLD? Seems to me more dangerous than valuable.
On May 3rd, Google released 8 new top-level domains (TLDs) -- these are new values like .com, .org, .biz, domain names. These new TLDs were made available for public registration via any domain registrar on May 10th.
Usually, this should be a cool info, move on with your life and largely ignore it moment.
Except a couple of these new domain names are common file type extensions: ".zip" and ".mov".
This means typing out a file name could resolve into a link that takes you to one of these new URLs, whether it's in an email, on your tumblr blog post, a tweet, or in file explorer on your desktop.
What was previously plain text could now resolve as link and go to a malicious website where people are expecting to go to a file and therefore download malware without realizing it.
Folk monitoring these new domain registrations are already seeing some clearly malicious actors registering and setting this up. Some are squatting the domain names trying to point out what a bad idea this was. Some already trying to steal your login in credentials and personal info.
This is what we're seeing only 12 days into the domains being available. Only 5 days being publicly available.
What can you do? For now, be very careful where you type in .zip or .mov, watch what website URLs you're on, don't enable automatic downloads, be very careful when visiting any site on these new domains, and do not type in file names without spaces or other interrupters.
I'm seeing security officers for companies talking about wholesale blocking .zip and .mov domains from within the company's internet, and that's probably wise.
Be cautious out there.
