I am typing this from a 6 year old m1 macbook, and it is still going strong. I think even with the recent flaws of macos and instability, the hardware is pretty great, and if you don't like something, you can still hack your way through it. No windows for me, the only reason I used to rely on windows was its vast software array, reversing applicability and videogames. Now that good cross platform reversing tools are available, and I have migrated to PS5, macos just makes the most sense to me. I got it for 800 USD 6 years back, and it has already given me more bang for the buck.

Well.. RIP.


Amazing story. Here is one of my favorite ones as well, when Naughty Dog intentionally exploited EULA to fix Ratchet and Clank.

They used a buffer overflow on the EULA message as a patch mechanism?!


Did a double take when I saw Dilbert there, then checked the date on the article.

Well RIP. I live near Gurugram, India, where a village is named after him. Old relatives used to tell stories about him, he was a simple man and a good human being.
