Quick register all words that start with MI for future vulnerabilities. I’m waiting for M1RAGE and M1TIGATE myself.

You joke but somewhere there's a domainer doing this right now.

I'll give them a couple too: M1GHT, M1CRO*, M1ASMA (M1ASTHMA?), M1D*, M1FFED (with some 0xFFED somewhere?), M1GRATE (for some particularly pesky data extraction hack?), M1LES (for some unit conversion bug that makes the first MacOs-based spaceship crash)

M1GRAIN for something about atomic ops.

M1LF

That would be a line feed related parsing vulnerability in a messaging app on M1.

M1XOMATOSIS, M1G-29, M1XMASTRM1KE, M1CKEYM1CE, M1L1TTLEPWN1E…

... for those who like Apple a bit too much.

On a hunch I tried "myasthma.com" to see if that spelling were free. TIL that redirects to GlaxoSmithKline's en-gb homepage!

M1SASMA - for a particularly stinky bug.

m1stake, m1aculpa

Is m1aculpa like the mar1o spelling of the word? MamaM1a!

It'll have a short shelf life. Won't the M2 be out within a year?

MeToo

Soon enough we'll get the M9 and then the MX because of reasons. And SE / Lite / Pro versions.

I would suspect the final versions of M chips for all the first round Apple Silicon Macs are all taped out with no respins planned.

And I further expect that they’re already sampling the M chips for the subsequent round of products. Heck, they may even be completely done as well.

A "domainer" — that must be one of the ultimate pejorative descriptions of a person.

Is it though? They refer to themselves as domainers quite often. (I work with them indirectly)
