All we need now...
So, if a nice unpatched vulnerability comes up in MS's Media Player, Microsoft will then be hacked via bug reports.
For ultimate irony, the first trojan should be attached to a bug report of the vulnerability.

As a child, I eagerly watched the first launch of the Space Shuttle, my imagination running wild with the things our species could now do with our new reusable lift to the stars.
Then came Hubble, unlocking so many beautiful images of starscapes previously unimagined; launched by the Shuttle.
Next, the beginnings of the ISS; with it's dreams of space cooperation and progress...
Alas, the cooperation never really lived up to it's potential, and then the Shuttle was retired.
And now the ISS is to come crashing down too, and I do not see anything, yet, to stimulate the young minds of tomorrow's scientists and engineers.
I guess our hopes and dreams now lie in the hands of SpaceX, and those private companies planning on building inflatable hotels and labs.
It still makes me sad that we have to scrap the ISS.
I think it's quite clear that hostile aliens are on their way, and so the US government has commissioned Amazon, SpaceX et al to launch a protective shield of satellites into LEO to prevent any ingress of alien craft.
When they are done, there will be hundreds of thousands of space weapons in place, ready to bombard incoming hostiles with orbital velocity shrapnel.

There are a number of cholate beers available in the UK, a large number of which, probably the majority are not sweet.
cocoa, naturally a bitter flavour, fits well with hops in a dark malty beer. I agree completely that packaging it in similar packaging as a product aimed at children is not smart.
While possibly in danger the advertising iceberg, Plum Porter is an excellent beer for those that prefer sweet dark beers.
The same brewery produces a Cappuccino Stout that is served best with a shake from the cocoa shaker typically used on Cappuccinos.
Don't knock it before you try it!
Maybe they need to keep some tanks of liquid nitrogen on-site for putting out fires; I suspect CO2 handheld extinguishers won't be up to the job.
I guess halon is out of the question.
I'm actually surprised the containers don't have piping for injecting such fire suppression measures.
So this is a system that swaps several minutes trying to work out what is in some fuzzy pictures, with many minutes trying to find your U2F key from wherever you put it after Google last asked you to sign in with it.
Ok... And which of my two keys (and two backups) should I be using?
I'm not completely certain, but I'm sure that leaving the key permanently installed in your computer's USB socket is not secure behaviour.
Still, it's at least better than having to dig out your phone, start the Authenticator app and copy across the six digit code. If you can remember the right one to use.
I'd like the producers of alternative medicines, such as homoeopathy, prosecuted for making unfounded and unevidenced claims about their products.
I'm deeply disturbed that companies such as Boots the Chemist sell these so-called cures to the gullible public, rather than providing educational material on how to improve lifestyle; changes that have proved to improve health.
