His office is where he plays video games, for money. It all makes sense now. To follow it up, consider the fact that his thermostat, which measures the ambient temperature to control the climate for the whole residence, is directly behind the TV, which likely puts out a non negligible amount of waste heat.

i didn't cause it, i can't prevent it from happening again, and i can't meaningfully mitigate the damage beyond keeping the same password generation rules people still resolutely refuse to follow because they're lazy and don't give a poo poo

I'm amazed that notepad even does enough stuff with the document data to have a vulnerability (there's no syntax highlighting so I wouldn't think there would be any parsing at all?), but maybe it's one of the new features they recently added? Edit: I'm going to assume the vulnerability is in the "search with Bing" feature they apparently added because lol why would they add that to notepad? mystes fucked around with this message at 16:24 on Jun 4, 2019 |

i mean, notepad does do text layout (break into lines, tab spacing, etc.), and unicode so i wouldn't be too surprised if it turned out some obscure combination of those things blew a stack buffer
