  5. Implemented the endgame sequence for #OpenCrystalCaves (sorry, spoilers!) It’s simpler than the intro sequence but contains a nice gag image and outro text as a reward for the player. Soon the game’s first episode will be fully playable from start to finish - a big milestone!

  13. In the '87 episode of Computer Chronicles about word processors, Paul Schindler reviews a package that's not only a word processor, spreadsheet, and database software in one, but even takes over some #DOS file management duties.

    All that for only $40, when some word processors alone cost $120+.

    I wanted to try it out but, unfortunately, it looks to be lost software. I can't find much about the it at all, just that the full name was "Intuit IS 2000" by Noumenon Corp.

  15. Multi-Functional Linux Botnet "Evooo1Bot"

    A previously undocumented Linux botnet named Evooo1Bot has been discovered, actively targeting Internet-facing devices since July 2026. Built upon Mirai's DDoS engine, it extends functionality with encrypted C2 communications, SSH brute-force scanning, SOCKS relay capabilities, credential sniffing, and an integrated exploit arsenal. The malware employs multi-layer string encryption using AES-256-CTR, ChaCha20, and XOR-based key derivation. It exploits numerous vulnerabilities across edge devices, routers, and enterprise applications. The reverse SOCKS relay module transforms compromised devices into persistent proxies, enabling attackers to conceal their origin and pivot into internal networks. The botnet features 28 remote commands organized into modules for persistence, self-update, file transfer, interactive shell, sniffing, proxy relay, SSH scanning, DDoS attacks, and CVE exploitation. Multiple persistence mechanisms ensure continued operation across systemd, SysV init, cron, and shell profiles.

  36. An Evolution of the Botnet

    A new version of the Kimwolf Android/IoT botnet has been identified, targeting Android TV boxes and set-top boxes. The version 7 variant introduces enhanced DDoS capabilities including HTTP/2-based floods with complete browser fingerprinting to mimic legitimate traffic. It employs a resilient three-tier command-and-control infrastructure using Ethereum Name Service resolution through five hard-coded public endpoints, a Tor hidden service backup, and local proxy architecture. The malware spreads by exploiting unauthenticated Android Debug Bridge instances via residential proxy services. The botnet implements 15 DDoS attack methods and utilizes ARM NEON SIMD optimization for high-performance UDP floods. Operators removed scanning and exploitation modules, separating propagation from DDoS functionality. The infrastructure is hosted primarily in Russia, with evidence of operator-controlled Ethereum RPC endpoints.

  38. Un petit brin de nostalgie pour les passionnés de vintage tech : le pad QuickShot QS-191 pour PC (1995). 👾

    À l'époque où le Gameport DA-15 régnait en maître sur nos cartes Sound Blaster, cette manette tentait le pari d'amener le feeling console sous MS-DOS. Mention spéciale au sélecteur physique de Turbo Fire au centre, indispensable pour survivre aux Shoot 'em up de l'époque sans choper une tendinite.
