  • Had this a few weeks ago, my partner had her email hacked, she used the same password on a service that was hacked and email/passwords stollen. They first used a ‘forgot password’ on her phone operator account, reported the SIM as lost/stollen and registered her number to a new SIM. Then they could change the passwords on anything they liked as they had her phone number and got the 2FA calls and SMS. They then went through accounts downloading apps and setting up or re-registering MFA once the passwords were changed.





  • It’s a relatively interesting difference between our two countries, in the 1940s the USA was being introduced to movie stars who had the “Hollywood smile” which led to a lot of people turning to cosmetic dentistry.

    In the UK in 1948 dentistry became available for free on the NHS, with a focus on health rather than cosmetics. Sadly in 2006 they changed the deal for dentists so they had to perform hundreds of procedures before they could claim any money, rather than the pay-per-procedure they had been on before. In the last 20 years it’s become almost impossible to find an NHS dentist because they have all quit, and the UK has got too used to getting it for free so it’s not considered something you need to pay for.






  • This was a satirical take on the state of mass-produced corporate television and film that attempt to bleed dry once great franchises in the name of corporate responsibility to shareholders above all else, which sought to link the Marvel franchise (owned by the Disney corporation) with the tenuous but valid link, of the superhero Ms Marvel, and the name of the PhD astronomer in the subject of this article who happens to be Dr Marvel.

    It’s never as funny when you have to explain it though.
