Intel Procs Again hit By Massive Vulnerability (called Spoiler)
From Guru3d
05/03/19
Yeah, not exactly the most fun pun, but this is a spoiler alert. The vulnerability was given the name Spoiler and was discovered by the Worcester Polytechnic Institute and the University of Lübeck. it involves a leak in page mapping of working memory, making other attacks much easier to perform.
To perform tasks faster, speculative execution is applied to processes in working memory. In this case, data from the working memory is already cached in advance with so-called load and store instructions. However, if a physical memory address does not exist, data leaks away over the timing - the time it took to reach a physical memory address. The researchers mention , Rowhammer, cache and javascript attacks can be executed in merely seconds.
-- The Register --
This security shortcoming can be potentially exploited by malicious JavaScript within a web browser tab, or malware running on a system, or rogue logged-in users, to extract passwords, keys, and other data from memory. An attacker therefore requires some kind of foothold in your machine in order to pull this off. The vulnerability, it appears, cannot...

Neverdark has been announced!
On December 24th 2030 a global blackout occurred. In an instant, the world lost access to electricity, and suddenly so many things that we had taken for granted were gone; the Internet, global communications, electronic devices... all gone.
War emerged as governments fell. Society collapsed upon itself and guns, medicine and food became the new currency. A new world rose from the ashes of the old one, one ruled by bands of raiders, religious cults, bikers gangs, idealistic democratic communes and organisations built around charismatic leaders. Cities became battlegrounds. This is the world of Neverdark!
Real-time simulation strategy gameplay
Neverdark is a pausable real-time strategy game which brings you to a post-apocalyptic world. Following a global blackout, society has collapsed, and it will be your goal to rebuild it.
You lead a group of survivors, and you will need to contend with other factions over the control of the city. Invest resources, expand your influence and take over the city, street by street. Neverdark is as much about politics and social evolution as is about combat.
Real cities and real maps

(Dev News #145) Honoring Friends and Mauling Foes
1 Mar - Saxxon
Hey, Feudalists!
This week we continued tackling bugs and errors, polishing 0.2.0 and making the game version better. In this weeks patch, we have fixed the bug that was making JH raids almost useless, since nothing could be done on the enemy fief. We've squashed this bug and did some fine-tuning to the original list of abilities that can be performed by attackers on the defenders' fief during JH. You can see the full list here and read the full patch notes here.
With this update we have added several new Maul skins, there are plenty for you to choose from to match your style - from brutal looking to splendor and fancy ones. Take a closer look at these glorious skins in the picture below, and hurry to the store to emphasize your feudal greatness!
We have also update updated information on new 0.2.0 mechanics earlier this week, and now you can find more details about New Abilities, reworked Plants mechanics, Water and Wells, and of course Animals and their age. You can find all the new information in our Guide to the 0.2.0 Update.
Every day we receive a lot of messages from you and see that many of you are enjoying the new...

About This Content
On August 22, 1943, at 17:00, German forces began withdrawing of the "Kempf" task force from Kharkov, preserving it from possible encirclement and destruction. In turn, the Soviet command at 20:00 began the assault on Kharkov, with the task to cut off escape routes from the city for the German forces. But in most parts of the city there were no German forces by this time, they were entrenched on the southern outskirts of Kharkov, in the Krasnobavarsky district located near r.Uda and near the Osnova railway station. In the evening of the same day, units of 53A and 5 gds TA, completed the crossing over r.Uda west of Kharkov, in the
Shpakovka, Gavrilovka and Sinolitsevka sector, and began an operation to expand the bridgehead in the general direction to vlg.Korotich. A forward detachment was sent out, which was supposed to cut the Kharkov-Merefa highway in the area of vlg.Pokotilovka, which, according to the plan, should prevent the German forces from escaping Kharkov. In the morning of August 23, units of 69A and 7 gds A entered Kharkov from the north. Attempts by some...
