I saw a big bunch of posts around here discussing the use of VPNs or i2p to torrent. As I seldom download something, I wasn't too much worried about using my IP. Now I'm using an arr stack and that kicked me in the way to protect my connection a little better. So, what are you all using nowadays for your torrenting?

The highlights:

The attack doesn’t require any user interaction other than viewing the malicious email, and once that happens, the attackers get to work exfiltrating a ton of data. This includes the victims’ last 90 days of email communications, email addresses and passwords, the organizations’ email directories such as global address lists, two-factor authentication tokens, and newly created application passcodes.

The Russians’ latest campaign targets CVE-2025-66376, a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Zimbra web-based email and collaboration suite that was patched in November 2025.

Some of the email addresses used in this campaign include ivanka.zurabishvili@proton[.]me, zmul1@buildandconsulting[.]com, garrysmithme@pinmx[.]net, and hostingclient@pinmx[.]net, we’re told.

I've been hearing about an Xbox 360 softmod that runs off a flash drive. I have an Xbox 360, and I have an iPhone, and an Android phone, and I have Macs, so it should be enough to put the softmod on a flash drive and stick it in the 360, right? Well, the instructions I'm finding (on various YouTube videos about it) all say I have to run a .EXE file (in Windows). The only access I have to Windows is at work, and we can't bring flash drives in, or run executable files there (that aren't approved). All this sounds real sketchy anyway. So, is there any truth to this softmod or are various YouTubers (none of them well known, trustworthy sources) just trying to get people to install ransomware on Windows machines?

Is there an actual package that can simply be extracted to the flash drive?

Just wondering if anyone here knows anything about it.

Edit: For what it's worth, my interest isn't even piracy, per se. The disc drive on the 360 took a shit on me, so I figure I can load the games we h

I bought a Trigger Kicker from Hoffman Tactical. I bought it to financially support (in a small way) Tim's legal defense.

I have no intention of ever using it.

FRTs are cool. And the selectable FRTs are AMAZING. Non-selectable has its place, I'm sure, but it probably isn't in my collection.

I will continue to use homemade Super Safeties in my AR compatible builds. If/when the litigation concludes and Tim is able to sell the Super Safety again, he'll be getting my money.

Has anyone else bought the Trigger Kicker with no intention of using it?

I've been working on a platformer game in rust. Game objects are stored in a Vec, and each is updated independently. However, a given object would like to interact with other objects. In C I would do something like fn update(&mut self, others: &mut [Self]). However, this would result in the parameters being aliased, which is not allowed.

What I'm looking for is some type that acts like a &mut [T], but remembers which element it is not allowed to access. I could use two &mut [T] values, built with split_at_mut, but this is unwieldy. I could make a struct that contains both. Is there a crate that does this? Ideally it would use unsafe internally so the compiler knows there is exactly one element in between. (that is to say, I would prefer something using only 24 bytes)

Chain does not do what I want because it can only be used as an iterator, not for indexing. To be clear, I would like to be able to index the result exactly like a &mut [T], except that it will find the eleme

Yarrr mateys. Recently picked up an amiibo duper and am having trouble getting new characters on it. Do any of my fellow ship mates have a good tutorial and source? My usuals don’t seem to keep these in their ports.

Thanks!
