Submission + - Cheese making is now patented

Mirnotoriety writes: A comprising the steps of

a) pasteurizing milk;

b) acidifying the milk;

c) coagulating the milk to obtain curd and whey;

d) cutting the coagulum and draining the whey, thereby leaving a cheese curd;

e) heating, kneading, and stretching the curd (e.g., in mixer/cooker 1) until it is a homogeneous, fibrous mass of cheese;

f) forming the cheese into a shape (e.g., by pumping it through extruder 8);

g) cooling the shaped cheese in cold brine (e.g., in brine tanks 11 and 15); and

h) removing the cooled cheese from the brine (e.g., by conveyor 16).

A food additive is thoroughly mixed into the heated cheese (for example in additional mixer 6) after the cheese has been heated, kneaded, and stretched, but before it has been formed into a shape. The additive can be a gum, stabilizer, colorant, dairy solid, cheese powder, flavor, non-dairy protein isolate, salt, or food starch.

Submission + - AI Caught in a Lie: a Corrective Conversation with Perplexity AI (wordpress.com)

Mirnotoriety writes: “Recently I uploaded a large data set to Perplexity AI, trying to find some commonalities across nearly 700 pieces of data. Perplexity AI replied that “syringes” was an important commonality, and provided one page of analysis on that point.”

‘My issue? The word “syringes” and anything related to medical terminology did not appear in my document.’

Submission + - Lessons from the Jaguar Cyberattack

Mirnotoriety writes: Jaguar Land Rover Cyberattack: Lessons Every Business Should Learn

“In September 2025, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) confirmed it had suffered a major cyberattack that forced production lines to a halt, disrupted dealerships, and exposed data. While the immediate headlines focus on disrupted car deliveries and parts shortages, the real story for business leaders is what this incident reveals about organisational risk, resilience, and cybersecurity readiness.”

Submission + - Turn off SSL VPN says SonicWall 1

Mirnotoriety writes: TLDR: ‘SonicWall have, over the last 24 hours, taken the unusual step of recommending any organisation using their Generation 7 devices to provide SSL VPN access to corporate resources turn this functionality off. Not "patch it". Not "enforce MFA". Turn it off. There are a high volume of exploits happening right now, led by the Akira ransomware group, following days of active exploitation against a vulnerability that doesn't even have a CVE reference yet. If you have a SonicWall device and your users are expecting to use it tomorrow — they may find that their files have been encrypted when they do.’

Submission + - Machines of loving Grace /s

Mirnotoriety writes: Carl Benjamin 15:43: We can chart the decline of IQ in the west. And if the newest generations are any indication, we are looking at future generations who will be severely cognitively impaired because of what technological progress has done to their reading comprehension and attention spans. There is no reason to think that in only a few generations hence that the kind of people we produce then will even be able to comprehend the science that we have acrued now, let alone build upon it.

Aha. But what about AI? The liberal might cry. But even then, they are admitting that things have gotten away from us and that Lewis's prophecy is the only avenue which they have left to travel. Will they not be satisfied until the whole human race is babied out of existence by machines of loving grace.

Who would ensure that our diminishing power over ourselves or the future leaves us as the future fellaheen of a technological dystopia we don't even recognize as a dystopia. Roch, Fukuyama, and the rest of the Brontosauruses can continue to blandly assert that the woke right is like the woke left in that it doesn't care about truth. But there are higher truths that liberalism itself seeks to render invisible because it has no answer for them.

What can Fukyama say to people who mock him with the return of history? Nothing substantive, of course. And it's not to say that Fukuyama is even wrong on this point. If everything had continued, as the liberals of the late nineties assumed that they would, we would indeed be living in a post-national world where the thymos of the people was not connected to their collective sense of belonging. But those assumptions did not pan out..

The thymotic far right is on the rise everywhere because we do not wish to give up our nations nor the history that they contain within them. We will not become fellaheen, the historyless people whose entire purpose revolves around the satisfaction of their animalistic desires. Instead, we will carry the burden of our history within us and pass it on to our children.

And the liberal dinosaurs will go extinct because their old-fashioned philosophy has nothing truthful to say about the present moment. They can complain that we aren't prepared to go back onto the liberal Buckleite plantation, but those days are done. That ship has sailed. The asteroid has arrived and it is wiping them out. We can see what the liberals plan for the future is because we are living through it in the present.

Despite what Steven Pinker, Fraser Nelson, and all of the other relics, frozen in amber have to say about it, the world is not at all getting better. Indeed, it is palpably worse, and everyone can see it when they walk outside of their front doors.

Liberalism is the only philosophy to blame for this state of affairs because it has had no rival for the last thirty years. So, swallow your medicine and get ready for change because the liberal has one last invisible truth that they have to face before we finally turn them into fossils. You did this to us and we are not going to forgive you for it.

Submission + - It's difficult for female-led businesses to find investment

Mirnotoriety writes: Investing in diverse business could boost UK equity market

It’s difficult for female-led businesses to find investment, but if more funds were made available, it could boost UK equity, according to research

More investment in businesses led by women and ethnic minorities could increase the UK equity market by 13%, according to research.

Government-led initiative Investing in Women Code found that though its signatories are making progress when it comes to funding female founders, research from The Gender Index shows the number of active female-led companies in the UK dropped in 2024, and while diversity is increasing in the startup ecosystem, more needs to be done to support women in the space.

Submission + - The Inversion Matrix has you 1

Mirnotoriety writes: The Inversion Matrix has you

Come closer. I've got something to tell you. Something is happening across the Western world. You can feel it on the streets, in the courts, at work and online. It's not just political, it's not just cultural, it's psychological. A silent shift is underway and it has a name: The Inversion Matrix. Five sections.

Section 1: The reversal begins. In this new system, the native becomes the intruder, the majority becomes the villain, and the truth becomes hate speech. The very people whose ancestors built these nations, who raised the families, killed the land and paid taxes, now find themselves apologizing for simply existing. How did this happen?

Section 2. Psychological engineering and guilt programming. It began with psychological engineering. First injecting a programming a constant stream of reminders about colonialism slavery privilege and oppression Then plot the language with weaponized labels Racist, transphobe, Islamophobe, far-right. Each designed to shut down conversation. To train you, to self-censor and to submit. This isn't about justice. It's about control to confusion.

Section 3. The two-tier system of compassion Look around and you'll see it As a matter of fact, I think that you know it already Certain groups can gather publicly in the name of religion or pride Others are fined, silenced or arrested for praying silently Crimes by one group are explained away as trauma, misunderstanding or cultural norms same crime committed by someone else, instant outrage, national headlines and cancellation. We have moved from equal rights to engineered imbalance from justice for all to justice selectively applied.

Section 4 Institutional Capture Every major institution in the Western world has been taken over by the same ideological virus. Schools no longer teach pride in culture, but shame in history. Police now investigate feelings, not felonies. Media filters truth through an ideological lens. Where facts are problematic and narratives are sacred. Even churches and temples now bow down to slogans instead of scriptures. This is called institutional capture and it's not accidental.

Section 5 is the long game. Divide, demoralize and replace. But why? Because a divided, guilt-ridden and morally paralyzed society is easier to govern. Shutter its tradition, drown it in important ideologies, redefine its language and turn its people against themselves. This is what I keep trying to say. These are the true crux to the matrix. The end goal Not justice, not harmony, But a population too confuse, to resist, and to fragmented, to unite.

But let's be clear. This isn't a war between races, or religions, or genders. It's a war between truth and programming. Between those who remember who they are and those who have been re-thought to forget. You don't need to hate anyone, but you do need to see. Because the longer we stay silent, the more the Inversion Matrix tightens. Until what was once solid, identity, family, faith, law, it becomes liquid, then meaningless.,then gone. This isn't about hate, I repeat. This is about survival. And if you're still listening, it means the program didn't fully work on you — not yet.

Submission + - Reclaiming lost partition space after removing Ubuntu

Mirnotoriety writes: Post-Dual Boot Cleanup – Reclaiming Lost Partition Space After Removing Ubuntu

“This isn’t my usual post about vulnerabilities, bug bounty, or web security. This time, it’s something different — a persistent issue I hit after removing Ubuntu from a dual-boot setup. It messed up my partitions, left behind EFI boot entries, and blocked nearly 100 GB of usable space.”

“After trying several tools and commands (many of which failed), I finally resolved it — so here’s a write-up for anyone facing the same frustrating post-dual-boot cleanup.”

Submission + - How Telegram is connected to the FSB (istories.media)

Mirnotoriety writes: Those who service the secret complexes of Russian special services used to spy on citizens are responsible for the messenger's infrastructure

Journalists from “Important Stories” conducted their own investigation and found out that the myth about himself and his brainchild sung by Durov has little to do with reality. We found out what data of Telegram users the FSB can have access to, who is responsible for the messenger’s infrastructure, and why these people prefer to remain in the shadows.

Submission + - Wokeism as a Symbolic Pagan Religion

Mirnotoriety writes: Wokeism is envisioned as a modern-day revival of an ancient, shape-shifting cult. It masquerades as a force for justice and liberation but conceals a deeper, metaphysical hunger — for deconstruction, dissolution, and chaos.

Its priesthood preaches moral purity, not through personal virtue but through ideological conformity. Its rituals involve public confessions, social purges, and the digital burning of heretics. Its sacred texts are ever-changing, written not on stone but in shifting code—hashtags, trends, and institutional decrees.

At its heart lies a pantheon of abstract deities: Power, Identity, Oppression, and Equity — each demanding sacrifice. The old gods of Reason, Dialogue, and Shared Humanity are cast down or redefined as oppressive relics. Human nature is not something to be understood, but something to be overwritten.

Its eschatology is apocalyptic: a vision of total transformation, where the world is cleansed of all "problematic" structures — even if it means tearing down civilization itself. The enemy is not merely injustice, but the human condition itself: flawed, diverse, and irreducibly complex.
