copywrong2on MPPP – The first 'designer drug' disaster (2023)

Just give me the real deal, I don't want 1S-LSD. I want LSD. From a pharmacy. Same for other people who are into other drugs.

copywrong2on Jailbreaking RabbitOS

No no no, Rabbits mistakes are honest small mistakes from a great company! But this author, man of pure evil, hasn't waited long enough for my favourite bunny company to cover up their lies :(

copywrong2on Jailbreaking RabbitOS

For security issues, this is true. For finding that the company is lying, evil and obviously engaging in malicious practices... why ask them for a comment at all, except for a better blog post? Fuck them

These dark patterns will prevail. However, I honestly expect their reasoning to be "every single user reading heise.de should have a cookie banner blocking enabled in their Ad Blocker". Also, I think you can accept it for free when you click "Einstellungen", this is not golem.de.

Not really. Lot's of web hacking, bit of other stuff.

Life can be awesome

copywrong2on Ask HN: How do you go about finding a job?

I only have a very small set of companies I would ever want to work for which is a huge plus, because I just check their career pages. Small local security/pentest companies. Worked twice so far. I'm just lucky tho and I know it.

What I think helps a bit is: I'm very personal in my emails and brutally honest, like I'll tell them all the bad things explicitly in the first 5 sentences (bad education, dropout). No formal greeting "Hey, my name is X and I...". I also do have some work public (code + vuln diclosures) which has helped.

People do not put out their stuff. People get lured into contracts selling their IP to a shitty company that then publishes stuff, of course WITH copyright so they can make money while the artist doesnt

Yeah many industries like:

- Big Corps that buy IP

- Patent Trolls

- Companies that fuck over artists
