- my crystal butterfly candle holder
- a candle (thankfully unlit at the time)

I decided to watch this because 1) Emilia Clarke and 2) the probable dystopian future it presents

I like it so far and definitely would have loved it as a kid.

ClickFix attacks are increasingly devious, dangerous, and can hack you in an instant These attacks spoof Windows errors, CAPTCHAs, and real login pages to trick victims into hacking themselves with malware that skirts common cyber defenses.
