@alice@lgbtqia.space @deviantollam@defcon.social I think the concern I have with the magstripe existing is that a chip reader gas pump can still be hiding a magnetic skimmer.
I live in the third most populous city in North Carolina and many gas stations are still not using chip readers. Including the ones operated by the local grocery monopoly.
I should see of my credit onion supports purchase limits. I can't think of anything that costs $1800 that I would use a card instead of ACH for. Which of course has its own problems...

Dear security-minded nerds, what are your thoughts on zapping the mag stripe from credit cards (with like a neodymium)? I remembered @deviantollam@defcon.social 's video on deleting the RFID functionality from a card, but I wonder if in current year if chip-only is a viable way of life.
I recently got my debit card number gotten and while I am uncertain if it was a fishy Chinese electronics seller or a gas station skimmer, I'm now rethinking how I pay for things.
Of course, ultimately the easiest thing to do is simply use a credit card that gets paid off automatically. That way my rent money can't be yoinked while I wait for my credit union to figure out if they want to credit me back.

@alice@lgbtqia.space @Mikal@sfba.social @deviantollam@defcon.social an inappropriate thought came to mind when seeing this animation. Perhaps this technique could apply in other aspects of life?

@lcamtuf@infosec.exchange @deviantollam@defcon.social yup! And the end it goes into is a "receiver."

@joeycastillo@mastodon.social is it time to start wearing adversarial patterns?

@geerlingguy@mastodon.social glad I have a so-called "problematic" number of Pi 4 & 5 boards. I also found some DDR4 kits laying around the other day. Feels like I hit the saddest jackpot ever!

@mdiluz I always explain it this way to people who don't know better: LLMs are just complicated autocomplete.
They're statistical models that have parameters that can be manipulated by the companies who run them so the output gives the appearance of thinking/reasoning.
