In case of downtime and/or emergency, we will post updates on @DosDude@mastodon.social

Some rules we try to uphold:

  • Be civil. Bigotry is not welcome. This includes (but is not limited to): transphobia, queerphobia, racism, ageism and ableism. We do not promote hate.
  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

However, it does necessitate that the attacker run local code and manipulate JIT-compiled cBPF programs, meaning it is not a direct remote network attack.

So, a form of privilege escalation as access is required.
