In the body:
Nightmare Eclipse is such a hero tbh. if you haven't been following this saga,
a bunch of the backstory is here:

they've been dropping exploits right after microsoft's patch tuesdays, where
microsoft patches their previous exploit. in many cases, they negate microsoft's "secure"
patches to make the new exploit. which is such an incredible flex.

Argh. Thanks.
Some day I will find the magic incantations that does the right thing with UTF-8 encoding
and line wrapping on all of the various web browsers.
Today is, by example, not that day.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
