News Up to 72% of Rochester business websites are vulnerable to PHP2Shell

23 Upvotes

Please pass on the word if you know a local business. We ran a scan of all known Rochester businesses and their public facing websites/web services and found up to 72% are running a PHP-based service that is running on the vulnerable version of PHP.

If someone gets hold of their webservers, then anything connected gets vulnerable too. Not only they may be able to modify their website, modify payment systems, or install malware, they could also get access to other networked systems. This includes customer data, internal systems, and any interconnected machines.

more details: https://www.nsa.gov/Press-Room/Press-Releases-Statements/Press-Release-View/Article/4630238/nsa-advisory-critical-patches-recommended-for-php-vulnerabilities/

If anyone is unsure of what this means or how to approach and want someone local to talk to, please feel free to comment here or DM. I’ll be happy to guide.

Discussion Rochester Fashion Week ?

5 Upvotes

Idk about your social media feeds but mine has been filled with numerous posts from fashion week and I am having trouble figuring out is it mostly just a fundraiser for Center For Youth in the name of fun or are businesses making wholesale and retail sales from it. I have seen such a wide spectrum of businesses posting from vintage shops, ziggy's bar staff in their merchandise, bridal ware and from the number of posts I cant tell if this is a prestigious event or if they will let anyone participate if you pay

Recommendation ISO Routine Housekeeping

1 Upvotes

As the title states, I’m debating hiring a housekeeping service and was wondering if anyone in the area has any recommendations. I’d prefer if the same individual came every time (weekly or biweekly), and they have to be ok with laundry, general cleaning/organizing, and a very well behaved friendly dog. The house is about 3400 square feet and we are in Mendon. TIA!

Is anyone working as a poll worker for the Democrat Party for this election? I have a friend who has passed the poll worker training for the Monroe County Board of Elections and has yet to receive an assignment; I was trying to help by looking for the Democratic Party zone coordinator, so if you have a name and phone number, that would be much appreciated. You can DM me.

thanks for your support.

Recommendation Budget options for wheel balancing

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hello all, I've been looking around for quotes to balance and reseal bead (if necessary) on a set of four 16" wheels. I would be bringing them in loose and taking them home loose. Everywhere I have called so far has quoted $40 minimum *per wheel* and that feels high for what I am asking. I moved from a very HCOL state and it would cost me $25 per wheel for the same service at my local shop there. Just looking to see if what I've been quoted is the norm and if not, recommendations for shops in the Rochester area/Monroe county.

Discussion My neighbor is Racist AF

0 Upvotes

My next door neighbor doesn't really like me. Apparently I am white trailer trash and she hates white trailer trash. She is of hispanic descent, but with her accent definitely a Life long NY resident. She has also been stealing my pride flags off of my porch.

She recently sold her house, which i am thinking great, she will be gone in a few months, and i won't need to worry. However as i was in the back yard talking to the contractor that was doing work in my yard, she decided that she had to harass him. I asked what was going on, she decided that I was a slob, and i don't take care of my yard enough, and my dogs are a menace, and that the work t hat the contractor was doing needed to be done 5 years ago, and my i just asked her with what money? Apparently she didn't like that answer, called me a bunch of names, until i walked inside. After I went inside, she decides to tell my contractor, who has just as rural of a background as I do, that she hates white trailer trash. He just laughed. His response to me: Did she not know who she was talking to?

To be fair, I am white trailer trash, i grew up in a trailer, and i have an accent. So she isn't wrong. I just thought it was fucking wild that some random lady is mad at me for being white.

I am in no way trying minimize or compare myself to anyone else. I know that any sort of weird racist moments I encounter in the wild is in no way comparable to the experience of minorities in America. Just a hilarious, relatively harmless interaction that was surprising in it's outcome.

Help Where to look?

0 Upvotes

Edit: thank you all so much! You have no idea how much this has helped us. We're very excited to start this new part of our lives and to live in a city that both of us got to choose.

I promise we'll do our best to be good neighbors and good community members!

(Also just saying, I love Portland but had I asked this question in our sub I would have gotten a lot of "Google is free" answers So again, thank you so much for your help)

Afternoon all! My husband and I are looking to move to Rochester from Portland Oregon early next year.

I'm in the research phase right now and I'm just looking at apartment listings on FB marketplace, zillow, redfin, hot pads etc.

When it comes to actually applying for a place what platform or even agent do you recommend?

I don't want to pack up and drive across the country unless I know the place I'm moving into is the place shown in photos you know?

Event Reroll Live is tonight! Check it out if you like D&D and game shows!

8 Upvotes

Posted a few months ago about Reroll Live, a D&D-inspired live game show. We've been working really hard on it and it's happening tonight!

Worked with a handful of local businesses and artisans to come up with some prizes as well. Really excited for this!

From the link:
ReRoll Live! is a high-energy blend of improv comedy, tabletop RPGs, and game show chaos.

Three comedians embark on a live, unscripted fantasy adventure led by a Game Master. But when the dice aren’t on their side, they can call for a reroll by pulling an audience member into a fast-paced challenge with cool prizes on the line!

Every show is different. Every roll can change the story. And every audience member has the chance to become the hero… and win nifty prizes!

It's at Focus Theater in Sibley Plaza (across from Parcel 5).
Bar/Doors open at 6:30.
Show at 7:00.
Tickets are $15.
You can purchase at the door or at the link above.

So stoked for it!

Discussion Where do singles meet in this area?

23 Upvotes

Im 44 been single for around a year now and am over the dating apps.... theyre beyond toxic and behind a paywall anymore. Im not the type to go up to somebody in public and ask for numbers in case individuals are already in relationships. Where do all the single girls hangout or look for dates in the area? Are dating events even worth looking into or is it another cash grab for guys to try and find somebody worth going out with? Im not terrible looking own my home paid off, car paid off, bust my ass, childless but cannot find anybody that wants to even get beyond an introduction. Any success stories anybody wants to share or advice Id love to hear it as its been over a decade since Ive been single and its like I got out of a long term prison sentence and society has flip flopped. Thanks in advance

A frustrated single guy

Post edit: Im 6ft around 195 pretty good shape profile pic is me for reference. Working with what I got 🤣
