In the small town of Kawara in Fukuoka Prefecture, something is happening at the Saidosho Community Center. While kids in most parts of Japan are obsessed with Pokémon cards, the children of Kawara are clutching to something a little closer to home.

They are playing a trading card game where the stars aren’t fantasy creatures, anime heroes or even famous baseball players, but ojisan (middle-aged or older men) from the local community.

ESET Research

#ESETresearch discovered previously unknown links between the #RansomHub, #Medusa, #BianLian, and #Play ransomware gangs, and leveraged #EDRKillShifter to learn more about RansomHub’s affiliates. @SCrow357 welivesecurity.com/en/eset-res
RansomHub emerged in February 2024 and in just three months reached the top of the ransomware ladder, recruiting affiliates from disrupted #LockBit and #BlackCat. Since then, it dominated the ransomware world, showing similar growth as LockBit once did.
Previously linked to North Korea-aligned group #Andariel, Play strictly denies operating as #RaaS. We found its members utilized RansomHub’s EDR killer EDRKillShifter, multiple times during their intrusions, meaning some members likely became RansomHub affiliates.
BianLian focuses on extortion-only attacks and does not publicly recruit new affiliates. Its access to EDRKillShifter suggests a similar approach as Play – having trusted members, who are not limited to working only with them.
Medusa, same as RansomHub, is a typical RaaS gang, actively recruiting new affiliates. Since it is common knowledge that affiliates of such RaaS groups often work for multiple operators, this connection is to be expected.
Our blogpost also emphasizes the growing threat of EDR killers. We observed an increase in the number of such tools, while the set of abused drivers remains quite small. Gangs such as RansomHub and #Embargo offer their killers as part of the affiliate program.

Any baseball fans here?

My cousins & I grew up with stories, photos & newspaper clippings in a photo album of the 1970s Portland Mavericks, all collected by a huge fan of theirs.

We admired their love of the game, their moxie, and their playfulness with the fans.

If you've seen 'The Battered Bastards of Baseball', you'll understand. If you haven't seen it, do, really.. it's that delightful a true story.

If you're looking for the whimsy, love of baseball, and community spirit in today's day and age....

Banana Shenanigans! They go all in on their playfulness, and I love them for it.

Just putting this out there, tho I haven't seen a lot of #theater folk on here. I've written my first #play It is a blank verse sequel to Romeo and Juliet focusing on the servants, and the Nurse in particular. It's good. And I don't quite know what to do with it. I'm a writer with no contacts in the theater world. If you've got ideas or advice, I'm all ears. (following the NYC Playwrights blog already & submitting where appropriate)

7DRL 2025
It got by me this year, but the now 20-year-old 7 Day Roguelike Challenge, a gamejam where people try to construct a complete roguelike within a week's time, finished up Saturday.

Not only has it been around a long time, but a number of games have come out of it that went on to greater things. Jupiter Hell got its start as a 7DRL project called DoomRL. The amazing Jeff
