Copycat hits another npm package

A Shai-Hulud copycat worm has infected the npm package chalk-tempalte, appearing just five days after the original worm was open-sourced by its creators. The same threat actor also published three additional malicious npm packages containing infostealer code: @deadcode09284814/axios-util, axois-utils, and color-style-utils. These packages collectively received 2,678 weekly downloads and contain various malicious capabilities including credential theft, cryptocurrency wallet exfiltration, cloud configuration harvesting, and DDoS botnet functionality. The malware exfiltrates stolen data to remote command-and-control servers and uploads credentials to GitHub repositories. Researchers indicate the attacker operates from a home computer or local server farm and appears financially motivated, targeting victims' cryptocurrency assets while potentially offering DDoS-as-a-service capabilities.

Kennt das außer mir noch jemand? "The Dragon's Power". Ein Top/Down-Shooter mit fliegenden Drachen, der irgendwann um 1994 mal vom bhv Verlag vertrieben wurde. Läuft auf MS-DOS und vermutlich auf jeder Kartoffel von PC ab 286er oder so. Hab mir das Ding hier mal in einer VM unter MS-DOS installiert. Und ja, ich bin so schlecht in dem Spiel! 😞

I'm checking out the original Wing Commander Deluxe Edition CD-ROM, I recently found on the Internet Archive's redump library. This one lets you make a dedicated data disk for your savegames.

I ran this on my virtual Compaq Deskpro 386/25MHz without any modification or issue using the latest 86Box v6.0 Beta.

Retro Gaming rulez!

OK, I asked a while back about people using #DOS. Are there people out there writing code on DOS? What version of DOS and what languages? What are some good hashtags for reaching a DOS developer community?

In #CrystalCaves, there are occasional signs with boomer memes like “Kilroy was here” or “Winners don’t use drugs”. If you’ve encountered these contemporaneously, it’s time to schedule a colonoscopy

OTOH #OpenCrystalCaves’s “remaster” mode will show a set of (relatively) modern memes!
