The Final Show
Perhaps you did it for the thrill
My voice came out in a shrill
I watched as you took the pill
Drained out of your last will.
Looking lost and standing still
Those were your daily drill
Smiling from your window sill
Your hands went in for a kill.
The heart that I tried to fill
Now bleeding red in crimson spill
Followed by a deadly chill
As things went quite downhill.

using bare pointers is honestly an entirely different programming paradigm, as different from memory-managed imperative as functional is. unfortunately writing "good" "safe" c code without "heartbleed-tier vulnerabilities" means forsaking this

Ok the thing about Ventus and Roxas that gets me is like. Yes they look identical, yes they’re connected, but their connection is through Sora. There’s a little bit of Ven in Rox, sure, but it’s not a direct connection, not recognized the same way “a Somebody and their Nobody” are.
They aren’t bound together the way Ven is with Vanitas and Roxas is with Sora. I feel like the ways they influence each other comes from Sora - mainly indirect, like a game of telephone. If they share a few habits, it’s more like something that rubbed off on Roxas because Ventus rubbed off on Sora, less that their own connection leads to “Heartbleed”/sharing memories or traits.
Like, sure, there bound to be somethings they do share, where their existences overlap just a bit. Sometimes where Roxas remembers something that’s more Ventus than him, times where Ven feels Roxas’ sadness when it’s string. But what if it’s not as strong as people assume, seeing how they look alike. What gets me in this “what if” is like… Roxas and Ventus aren’t tied together as strongly as they are with their “Others”. Maybe they get to Choose what they are to one another.
Like Destiny or whatever gets to label and define what Sora and Roxas are to each other, what Ven and Vanitas are to each other. And in some ways Fate plays a part in ensuring Ventus and Roxas meet, but it’s really a factor of their relationship to Sora. What Ven and Rox are to each other is something unique! They aren’t a Somebody and his Nobody, they aren’t a Broken Heart and his Other Half. They’re something different. Connected, but maybe not as closely as people first assume.
Like. I dunno. I just feel like there’s potential looking at them through that lens. People in their lives assume they’re closer connection wise because their appearance, and it puts an odd pressure on the two of them. To accept one another, to distance themselves from each other, anything. Ventus and Roxas being told it’s the same thing as what happened with them and Vanitas/Sora, that they’re supposed to view each other as Others. But maybe. They really can choose something else!

The Bleeding Heart Society is a large, multi-branched organization that specializes in the containment and research of entities called "anomalies."
These anomalies are persons, places, or things that defy logic and the natural laws of the world. Anomalies can come from anywhere in the world, with no plausible source.
The Society was founded in the early 1700s. This was after a group of 6 researchers managed to develop a weapon which took down what is now considered the first anomaly, A1-No.001. However, the amount of power contained within the entity could not simply disappear once its form was destroyed.
This resulted in the entity "shattering" into hundreds of pieces that ended up manifesting as a new group of anomalies. This sparked the founding, as the researchers thought it was their responsiblity now to contain and come to understand these new creatures along with the pre-existing anomalies.
One of the main stories takes place around 300 years later, in the non-specific year of 20XX.
A group of recently-hired individuals are brought to an estate in the middle of seemingly nowhere to train and become full-time employees of the BHS. They are under the supervision of the seemingly alive Heartbleed Estate, and an anomaly who the interns simply nicknamed "Alfred." Most attempts to escape the situation are proven to be futile.
It's up to the group of interns to either obey, or rebel against their employers, and learn what's become of the society after 300 years of corruption.
(The other plotlines are not exactly in my wheel-house to summarize, apologies. If you want, you can ask more about the Hasp or what @cookies-super-secret-blog has to offer here!)

hiii 🙋💖🧠 for the emoji ask game
Hi hi love!
🙋‍♀️ Do any irl people know you write fanfic?
My mom knew that I wrote, from my late teenage years. She was quite supportive of it, just glad to know that I am writing again after several greatly painful events regarding my original writing during my childhood and later on. Sometimes she'd help me with plot points even.
I also told my previous therapist, in very brief what is fan work kind of thing, after she kept asking me what are the things I am writing and it was not just grief induced heartbleeds on my blog.
💖 What made you start writing?
Nothing and everything, I think. I grew up surrounded by stories - reading until 5am at age of 6, because I was sick and sleeping was impossible. Summers spent cooped up inside, with my brother role playing stories we fought over, before either of us knew what role playing even was. Writing first play for my dolls - fairies, first poems and short stories, being encouraged by mom to keep at it, though it was always the hardest part for me.
Then DnD with my brother and when our relationship soured and got tense further, discovering Internet and online RP boards, finding creative outlet in that and eventually discovering fanfiction through it. If original stories were always pain in how they floundered eventually, short fanfiction let me focus on emotions and single event. It also gave me the community, both in RP and fanfiction, that I craved more than air, due to how my real life was.
I don't think there is any version of me that could be without words, without writing and storytelling at somewhere at the core. It's not some grand thing, a higher way of being or a lofty goal. It just is a way through which I interpet life, deal with it and survive.
🧠 Pick a character, and I'll tell you my favorite headcanon for them.
You said I could pick whoever, so I will pick Mashwood as a whole. :)
They exchanged earrings instead of rings for their union (Wolfwood's a bronze ear cuff Meryl wears). Rings are inconvenient in their lifestyle and it's more subtle, more them with the earrings.
Also I am always on Vash purrs agenda and that both boys got them sharp fangy teef.
Send me emoji for fanfic writer ask?<3

VPN security vulnerabilities
Title: Understanding VPN Security Vulnerabilities: Safeguarding Your Online Privacy
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are heralded as essential tools for safeguarding online privacy and security. However, like any technology, they are not immune to vulnerabilities. Understanding these weaknesses is crucial for users seeking to fortify their digital defenses.
One significant vulnerability lies in VPN protocol flaws. While protocols like OpenVPN and IKEv2/IPsec are generally secure, outdated or poorly implemented versions can compromise user data. Vulnerabilities such as Heartbleed and POODLE have highlighted the importance of regular updates and adherence to best practices in protocol usage.
Another concern is VPN logging policies. Although VPNs claim not to keep logs, some providers may still retain user data for various purposes, including compliance with legal requirements or optimization of services. Users must scrutinize privacy policies and opt for providers with transparent, no-log policies to minimize the risk of data exposure.
Furthermore, DNS leaks represent a potential threat to VPN users. Even with an active VPN connection, DNS queries may bypass the encrypted tunnel, revealing browsing activity to third parties. Mitigating this risk involves configuring DNS settings properly and employing tools like DNS leak tests to ensure anonymity.
Moreover, the proliferation of VPN malware poses a severe threat. Malicious actors may distribute malware disguised as legitimate VPN software, compromising user devices and data. Users should exercise caution when downloading VPNs and opt for reputable providers from trusted sources.
Lastly, VPN usage on vulnerable devices amplifies security risks. Outdated operating systems or unpatched software can create entry points for cyber threats, undermining the protection offered by VPNs. Regular updates and cybersecurity hygiene are indispensable in mitigating these risks.
In conclusion, while VPNs serve as indispensable tools for preserving online privacy, understanding and addressing their vulnerabilities are paramount. By staying informed, selecting reputable providers, and adopting robust security practices, users can navigate the digital landscape with greater confidence and resilience.
Risks of hacking while using VPN
Title: Understanding the Risks of Hacking While Using VPN
In recent years, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have become increasingly popular for individuals and businesses alike seeking to enhance their online security and privacy. While VPNs offer a layer of encryption and anonymity, they are not without their risks, particularly when it comes to hacking.
One significant risk is the false sense of security that VPN users may develop. While VPNs encrypt data and hide IP addresses, they are not foolproof against determined hackers. In fact, some hackers specifically target VPN users, exploiting vulnerabilities in VPN protocols or using sophisticated techniques to intercept data.
Another risk stems from the proliferation of VPN providers, not all of which prioritize security. Some VPN services may log user data, have weak encryption standards, or even contain malware. Users must exercise caution when selecting a VPN provider and opt for reputable companies with a proven track record of prioritizing user privacy and security.
Furthermore, VPN users may inadvertently expose themselves to hacking by engaging in risky online behavior. For example, downloading files from untrusted sources, clicking on malicious links, or entering sensitive information on insecure websites can bypass the protection offered by a VPN, leaving users vulnerable to hacking attempts.
Additionally, hackers may exploit vulnerabilities in the devices or networks of VPN users. For instance, outdated software, weak passwords, or unsecured Wi-Fi networks can create entry points for hackers to infiltrate and compromise devices, regardless of whether a VPN is in use.
To mitigate the risks of hacking while using a VPN, users should adopt best practices for cybersecurity, such as keeping software updated, using strong and unique passwords, avoiding suspicious websites and downloads, and regularly monitoring for unusual activity. While VPNs can enhance online security, users must remain vigilant to safeguard their data and privacy effectively.
VPN encryption weaknesses
VPN encryption is a vital component of online security, yet it's not without its weaknesses. While VPNs provide a layer of protection by encrypting your internet traffic, there are still vulnerabilities that users should be aware of.
One common weakness is the reliance on outdated or weak encryption protocols. Some VPN services may still use protocols like PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) or L2TP/IPsec (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol/Internet Protocol Security), which are known to have vulnerabilities and can be easily compromised by attackers.
Another issue arises from flawed implementation of encryption algorithms. Even if a VPN service claims to use strong encryption protocols like AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), poor implementation can lead to vulnerabilities that hackers can exploit. This could include improper key management or flawed encryption libraries.
Furthermore, the use of encryption can sometimes introduce latency or slow down internet speeds. This can be a trade-off that users must consider, especially if they require high-speed internet access for activities like gaming or streaming.
Additionally, VPN encryption does not protect against all types of threats. While it can safeguard against eavesdropping and interception of data, it does not necessarily protect against malware or phishing attacks. Users must still exercise caution when browsing online and remain vigilant against other potential threats.
In conclusion, while VPN encryption is an essential tool for enhancing online privacy and security, it's important to recognize its limitations and potential weaknesses. Users should choose reputable VPN services that prioritize strong encryption protocols and regularly update their security measures to stay ahead of emerging threats.
Threats to VPN anonymity
As the use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) becomes increasingly popular for maintaining online privacy and security, it is important to be aware of the potential threats that can compromise VPN anonymity.
One of the key threats to VPN anonymity is the logging practices of VPN service providers. Some VPN providers may keep logs of user activity, including connection timestamps, IP addresses, and websites visited. In cases where authorities request this data, user anonymity can be at risk if the VPN provider is compelled to hand over logs.
Another threat to VPN anonymity is DNS leaks. DNS leaks can occur when the VPN connection fails to properly route DNS queries through the encrypted tunnel, exposing users' browsing activity to their Internet Service Provider (ISP). This can compromise the anonymity that VPNs are meant to provide.
Moreover, malicious actors may set up fake VPN services to deceive users seeking anonymity. These fake VPNs may actually track and collect users' data, compromising their online privacy rather than protecting it.
In addition, vulnerabilities in VPN protocols can pose a threat to anonymity. If a VPN protocol is compromised or outdated, it can potentially be exploited by hackers to intercept and decipher encrypted data traffic.
To mitigate these threats to VPN anonymity, users should carefully choose a reputable VPN provider that has a strict no-logs policy and utilizes strong encryption protocols. Regularly checking for DNS leaks and keeping VPN software up to date are also important measures to enhance VPN anonymity and safeguard online privacy and security.
Methods to secure VPN connections
In today's digital age, the use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) has become increasingly common for individuals and businesses alike. VPNs provide security and privacy by encrypting internet connections, making it difficult for hackers and other malicious entities to intercept sensitive information. However, to ensure maximum security when using VPN connections, it is important to implement certain methods.
One effective method is to choose a reputable VPN service provider. Opt for a provider that offers strong encryption protocols, a no-logs policy, and a kill switch feature. Additionally, look for VPNs that regularly update their software to patch any security vulnerabilities.
Another essential method is to use multi-factor authentication (MFA) when logging into your VPN account. MFA adds an extra layer of security by requiring users to provide multiple forms of verification, such as a password and a one-time code sent to their mobile device.
Regularly updating your VPN client is crucial for maintaining security. Software updates often include security patches that address vulnerabilities that could be exploited by cybercriminals.
Furthermore, avoid using public Wi-Fi networks when connected to a VPN, as these networks are more susceptible to cyber attacks. Instead, opt for secure and trusted networks to minimize the risk of information being compromised.
By implementing these methods to secure VPN connections, users can enjoy a safer and more private online experience, protecting their personal data and sensitive information from prying eyes.
