This, btw, is why CVE scores are insane at times.

The vulnerability is that when spawning a new process which is a bat file you need special treatment of the arguments to avoid spawning a second process.

So you need a rust program setup to spawn other processes which also somehow forwards unparsed user input into those processes and is executing a bat file.

There’s a reason nobody has fixed this, it’s because it’s an insane setup that affects basically no rust programs.

Fuck everything about these tunnels.

• He proposed them to stop the city from implementing a subway system (fuck that shit).
• He first proposed them as being effectively a subway/hyperloop but then stopped when that cost too much money
• He then turned them into just underground private roadways accessible only to teslas.

Fuck that shit. The problem the city was trying to solve wasn’t “We need more highspeed roads” it’s “We need to be able move more people”. And musk torpedoed that with a pointless underground tunnel.

Subways would have been way cheaper to operate, served more locations, and would not have been this stupid exclusive system for tesla owners to show off an LED light display.

Eh, don’t really disagree with what you are saying. The problem is money and industry influence in politics and it’s something that needs to be eliminated. I don’t quiet take your point that regulations don’t matter. Assuming money and industry influence are removed from politics we’d see laws and regulations more line with the public interest over corporate interest.

Even if we fully ditched capitalism, you’d still need/want regulations setting the bounds on how government can/should operate.

Because you think “Oh, I made a mistake, I’ll be sure to fix it later”. You never fix it later. You mostly just add layers of shit on top of it and pray nobody asks you in the future “Hey, WTF were you doing there?”

Not really, PFAS have been almost completely unregulated. It is just in the last 2 years that we are starting to see PFAS regulations globally. Up until that point, we allowed companies to literally just dump them down the rain or in a lake.

If regulations were so worthless, you should be asking yourself why every single industry fights new ones. Why the supreme court in the US has taken a position to kill Chevron Deference which weakens federal agencies ability to regulate.

The failure isn’t regulations, the failure is a government system that severely neuters the ability of a government to regulate. The failure is a bunch of science denying corporate captured politicians that don’t care how they destroy the planet.

Yup.

The same trick is played with recycling. Blame the end consumer for a supply chain completely out of their control.

The biggest polluters are corporations and we stop their pollution by regulation. These mega corps would have you believe that it’s really your fault PFAS are everywhere because you shouldn’t have bought those Teflon coated products. Nevermind the fact that Teflon is everywhere a nonstick surface is needed.

The other treks are more idealized, heroized, professional.

Which is something LD likes to poke fun at.

Iron man was a hail mary by Marvel. Their IP was failing. RDJ was a lucky casting. Given where he was at at the time he was a pretty risky pick. Marvel didn’t really have the budget to be too picky at the time.

There’s a reason Spiderman is owned by sony and the hulk by universal.

Teenagers somehow.
