So everyone is using the web UI? I'm still using a mail client (Thunderbird) connecting to my mail accounts through the Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP). Today I feel old.

Nobody mentionned *Pulsar* (https://pulsar-edit.dev/) which is the community maintained Atom since its sunsetting (Dec 2022). Atom was created by Nathan Sobo, who is now working on Zed (https://zed.dev/).

Introducing a novel technique for e-mail spoofing.

SMTP, the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, allows e-mailing since 1982. This easily makes it one of the oldest technologies amongst the Internet. However, even though it seems to have stood the test of time, there was still a trivial but novel exploitation technique just waiting to be discovered – SMTP smuggling! In this talk, we’ll explore how SMTP smuggling breaks the interpretation of the SMTP protocol in vulnerable server constellations worldwide, allowing some more than unwanted behavior. Sending e-mails as admin@microsoft.com to fortune 500 companies – while still passing SPF checks – will be the least of our problems! From identifying this novel technique to exploiting it in one of the most used e-mail services on the Internet, we’ll dive into all the little details this attack has to offer. Therefore, in this talk, we’ll embark on an expedition beyond the known limits of SMTP, and venture into the uncharted territories of SMTP smuggling!

I like the «spiele des jahre» prices, they are always good references (https://www.spiel-des-jahres.de/aktuelle-preistraeger-2022/). This year it was Cascadia.

If you like games that you can always have on you, check oink games (https://oinkgames.com/en/). Scout (nominated to Spiele des Jahre 2022), Troika, Mask Men, Startups and Kobayakawa are my favorites.

> The IOCCC Flight Simulator was the winning entry in the 1998 International Obfuscated C Code Contest. It is a flight simulator in under 2 kilobytes of code, complete with relatively accurate 6-degree-of-freedom dynamics, loadable wireframe scenery, and a small instrument panel.

> IOCCC Flight Simulator runs on Unix-like systems with X Windows. As per contest rules, it is in the public domain.

Oh, and the code is shaped as a plane. Pretty awesome.

Got it, it is not built-in on all distros. Head to https://git-scm.com/docs/git-gui/ and https://github.com/prati0100/git-gui.git/ for more.

Where is that? `git: 'gui' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.`

Counting the number of seconds between 1970-01-01 and 0000-00-00 will differ from a language to another. Is there eli5 or relevant post about it?
