LLM (Sol/Astra) but not a single prompt.
Plan and design a reverse-engineering pipeline by learning on every game reversed. With a full gameplay reinterpretation into c++20 and HD assets ready to use.

Dispelling some common myths about the copyright syaytus of LLM output and reverse-engineered software.
Open Source is nice. Better to have a trashy Chinese OSS for their hardware than not have any. Significanly speedup a process.
A friend of mine took the original shitty BliKVM source with a lot of issues and suspicious home calls and rewrote it in Rust, added QUIC, and fixed tons of issues with keyboard on mobile, etc.
Yes, it used an Ai (Sol/Astra, Opus/Fable, Argon) that was a long project!
Is this code worse than what a human wrote? For sure, this one is better than partially working BliKVM with a lot of vulnerabilities.
Not every project or a good piece of hardware can have a genius, human coder. And there are LLM help a lot!
First thing in my own metadata manipulation library was a tests including fuzzying. Every couple of weeks i run a security audit using different frontier models to find if we missed something, and fix that.
As result, most new CVE found in exiftool, exiv2 etc., are not working in OpenMeta
Not sure. Maybe nothing significant to worry too much.
But original code in Go and almost not supported.
Friend ported our QUIC from RustAdmin protocol. Ported H264 hardware encoding from Android and lot lot of more.
Probably you can check what was made on GitHub repo.
Multi-disciplinary experts are scaring...
Adding CIE illuminants to my spectral renderer. WIll works along with blackbody, and SPD measured.

Opus 5.5 still bad with that but deliver results faster. Sol/Astra follow the rules much better, but slower.

researcher @log4j just published a teardown of samsung’s TV sensor telemetry. Here’s what the logs show.
samsung TVs without a built-in microphone look for connected devices that have one soundbars, bluetooth speakers, anything paired. They use that mic instead.
the audio isn’t sent raw. it’s classified first. the telemetry path includes named event types:
— EV201/SOUNDSENSOR_ON: logs dog-barking and baby-crying counters
— EV101/LIGHTSENSOR_ON: software flag for ambient light state
— EV301/CAMERASENOR_ON: camera-state and notification fields
— EV302/CAMERASENSOR_OFF: camera streaming duration
the data is formatted as key=value pairs and logged to lcprd1.samsungcloudsolution.… with deviceid=1.
it’s not recovering unique identifiers per device — the ID mode is configured but the module prefix and runtime policy still need independent verification.
what is confirmed: samsung’s TVs are classifying ambient audio including whether a dog is barking or a baby is crying in your home and reporting event counts back to samsung servers.
there’s no wake word these are passive environmental audio events being counted and logged.

black october just got worse. a japanese company lost 27,000 servers and it’s not even the scariest part
GMO Internet runs a cloud service called Onamae Desktop, mostly used by forex traders running automated trading bots
hackers broke in, installed malware across up to 26,739 servers, stole trading credentials and started making unauthorized trades on people’s accounts
not one broker. over 70 different securities and forex firms across japan and internationally. people woke up to trades they never made, money moving they never authorized
OANDA Japan froze customer withdrawals. GMO refused to pay the ransom, permanently shut down the entire service, and did something nobody expected
they asked the japanese government to use brand new active cyber defense powers, literally military-grade authority that just went into effect october 1st, to trace and neutralize the attackers’ infrastructure. the government can now legally hack back
the technical details from the attacker’s own site are terrifying. GMO configured their VPS network using Active Directory, something you should never do on shared hosting
every server had admin credentials. and the RDP files customers used to connect? drive redirect was enabled by default, meaning the moment you connected to your VPS, your entire local PC was shared with the server
hackers didn’t just own the servers. they had a direct path into every customer’s personal computer. they extracted data, installed backdoors. customers were exposed like this for over 7 years
27,000 servers. 70+ brokers. unauthorized trades. personal computers backdoored. a company begging its government to go to cyber war
october isn’t slowing down
One problem, that is hard and unpredictable time required to build full featured game engine.
Probably managers easy to understand UE in a cost rather than own engine.
