  • Giving access when it’s not supposed too

    Not sure I’d agree with that statement. Personally I see it as the correct credentials were provided, and thus access was granted; ergo, the app performed as intended, and there is no bug.

    The error here seems to be around the lack of concern for security; nobody considered that using the same credentials for their fleet of robots could pose a threat if discovered. It’s no different to someone using the same email and password for everything, and then wondering why their facebook has been hacked after their Reddit account leaked. The problem isn’t a bug in code, it’s just poor cybersecurity hygiene; what we see here is the same just on a commercial level.


  • Someone mentioned commet as a discord like matrix client the other day. I’ve trialled it using my matrix setup, and it looks and feels very clean, I definitely prefer it to element.

    Unfortunately as the tale always goes, it’s not quite on par with element in features (it claims to have RTC support using livekit, but I couldn’t find the group call option), but it’s definitely one of the more interesting clients to come about recently. I really like the separation of spaces and personal chats, and the multiple accounts feature is useful from a sysadmin perspective.

    Once they manage voice channels with RTC, I think matrix will finally have its discord alternative that could see some adoption with everyday users.
