When I check the "captcha", it makes an XHR request and the response contains the full command (base64-encoded) that ends up in the clipboard. So I guess if it's a bug it's probably server-side

Hah, there is! Similar pattern, inserts a command into the clipboard. cmd /c "powershell -w h -e OwA=" && ✅ I am human I'm not sure this would do anything? Seems like OwA= is a semicolon Maybe it only really works on Windows, or this command is bugged like the curl one was.

Ahh ok. I found a couple interesting strings that are used in a bunch of places to decode other stuff in various ways

Thanks! Uploaded. Seems to be a known thing.

The sketchy link, a Google Sites page, shows a fake captcha checkbox. And it copies a terminal command into your clipboard. And then: "to better prove you're not a robot, open a terminal and hit paste, enter"

So I asked for more info. another email they might've used? last 4 of the credit card? They replied with a sketchy link (sorry, "an attachment")

Second in the scam sequence, an email saying "I'm attaching my billing details" with a link to a Google Sites page

A sneaky scam I've seen a few times now: Someone writes into support to demand a refund for a duplicate charge. "oh crap!" But their email is nowhere in my system, nor is their name...

Initial scam email saying "I noticed I was charged double for my latest transaction on your platform ... Please investigate this and resolve the error ASAP"

I remember like 4 of these 😂

Way back when People used CDs They were only 650mb They measured size in minutes They weren’t rewritable yet (or maybe I couldn’t afford those drives) CompUSA was still a company

A recordable CD-R disc, 650mb, 74 minutes capacity, sold by CompUSA, a physical computer store that shut down in 2012

This hardened tile adhesive glue stuff (mastic?) comes off easy with a heat gun btw! ❌ sanding (no help) ❌ scraping (not great) ❌ water (did not soften) ✅ heat gun + scraping Wear a P100 though! Smells like burning plastic.

TIL the angle on this framing nailer has the side effect (design?) that 3 1/4” nails won’t protrude if it’s held at that angle!

At first I thought some random spammer had found my creatorblackfriday submission form But it turns out no – @johnrushx.bsky.social just has an ungodly number of projects 😁 Thanks for the submissions John!

Don't just set the settings to MAXIMUM REMOVAL and hit export. (ok fine, maybe on TikTok) You can get a nice relaxed pace by bumping the numbers a bit! - Avoid quick jumpy cuts by filtering out the short pauses - Leave further breathing room by padding out the edges of the pauses Then you can

Knowing a tool will cut out the pauses for you makes recording so much more relaxing. Make a mistake? Just let the recording run. Pause. Collect your thoughts. Meditate for 10 minutes if you want! Then resume. When you drop the file in Recut it'll find the gaps. Now the crucial bit, though...

Unfortunately for the marketing side of things, the best videos are the ones where it's impossible to tell Recut was used. This guy's design videos are a good example: www.youtube.com/@BrandonShep

I use Recut for every single video I make for my YouTube channel! It has cut HOURS off of my editing time, as I have hundreds of narration cuts per video. It helps me turn 5hrs of uncut footage into 30min of film that's easy to manage. What used to be a painful process is now a breeze. Could't live without it!
