I love the new title-text for the 2018 “Clippy” picture at [Wayback/Archive] CrazyMyra: “After AI took his job as an online assistant, Mr Clippy was obliged to seek work in other sectors…” – beige.party

Do you have your VMware ESXi hypervisor joined to Active Directory? Well, the latest news from Microsoft serves as a reminder that you might not want to do that given the recently patched vulnerability that has security experts deeply concerned.
…
Essentially, if an attacker was able to add an AD group called “ESX Admins,” any user added to it would by default be considered an admin.

I forgot this was in the queue: [Wayback/Archive] ruffle-rs/ruffle: A Flash Player emulator written in Rust.
It is cool and plays a lot of Adobe Flash content and supports quite a bit of the underlying ActionScript language.
I really wish the web version could play web.archive.org/web/20160706140910oe_/http://games.erdener.org/laser/laser.swf (older), web.archive.org/web/20061211011310/http://www.gamuz.com/jeux/laser.swf (newer) or web.archive.org/web/20030827220214oe_/http://www.lurghi.net/laser/laser.swf (newest) but alas when running from https://ruffle.rs/demo/, that SWF is trying to download https://ruffle.rs/demo/config.txt some 20-30 times per second.
Maybe there is a workaround, as I have only tried the [Wayback/Archive] Ruffle Web Demo page (which is the easiest way to get started).
