There is some weird time dilation BS going on. I’ve been on the elliptical machine for at least 2 hours now but the machine is only saying 10 minutes 😱

I can see a market for “fediverse moderator therapists” during times like these 😞

Here’s the video of a drone delivering to my house https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=YxtPsRvBgLkjVJo6&v=LqhZ6Y-Hu0c&feature=youtu.be

I am sitting out on my back deck and a delivery drone flew over the neighbor behind me, landed, and took off again. It was quite large and clearly left without the payload it was carrying. What was most surprising is that it was basically a vtol - it had wings and flew like a plane till it […]

I had a dream that ChatGPT was posting tons of ridiculous questions in various subreddits as a means of training itself using the replies. :blobsweats:

Defensive Security Podcast Episode 335 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0wGWf7KnFE https://defensivesecurity.org/defensive-security-podcast-episode-335/

I am almost to the last episode of the current season of Foundation. It’s really good - I read the books 40 years ago so I’m a bit fuzzy but the show seems to be at least as good. I am expecting to see Hari Seldon action figures soon, with prime radiant and Vault accessories.

There are kids zipping around the neighborhood on their mini e-mountain bikes that they (presumably) for for Xmas, and I’m torn between “they’re going to get themselves killed” and “damn, I was born at the wrong time”

I wonder what Lumbergh would think about all of this…

I’m thinking about buying one of the harnesses for my dog that will let me support her back end while we walk and on stairs. I am a little skeptical on how comfortable it is though. Anyone have experience using one of those with their elderly dogs?

Today is 4 consecutive days of weight training. I forgot how addictive the pain is. 💪

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@jerry/115832468257148115 I seem to have cornfused many people yesterday, so to clear the air: Yes, I know that last year was the first time FIFA ever gave out this award Yes, I am aware that it was invented and awarded by the head of FIFA to curry favor with […]

According to the sizes of potato chip bags, the sizes of parties have gotten much smaller recently.

I just started playing Death Stranding. I was not expecting it to be an Uber Eats Delivery Person Simulator

I remember when the FIFA Peace Prize used to mean something

LLMs are to LinkedIn as Taco Bell is to a🚽

I thought political fundraising emails were bad until I ended up on The Intercept’s fundraising list

The parking lot at the gym is completely bonkers crazy. I guess this due to New Year’s resolutions that haven’t died yet?

I just learned the term “risk laundering” and I can’t stop giggling. Context was “Agile enables risk laundering”.

The desantafication of the Bell house is nearly complete for another year. 😞

My youngest son must have had quite the NYE party. I woke up and there were people sleeping on just about every flat surface in my house and it took an hour to find the dog 😅

The NYE music show/countdowns remind me how far I continue to drift from knowing anything about contemporary music.

Happy new year, my friends. I hope 2026 treats you and your family well. 🥳 I decided it was too cold to attend the annual possum drop. Maybe next year.

I am going to try marketing “Moopsy on a shelf” for next Christmas. I missed it for this year

It is 78°f outside right now. In 40 hours, it will be about 25°f 😞

Merry Christmas, friends ❤️

Nikon released an update for my camera and the autofocus went from awesome to, well, whatever is better than awesome. It is scary good at eye tracking for focus now.

On the downside, my youngest son and his fiance move out in 3 weeks along with their cats :blobsadleft: On the upside, I am reclaiming his room to be a photo and video studio. :awesome:

I didn't sleep well last night so had way way way too much caffeine to compensate and that usually leads me to strange thoughts. Today's strange thought: I see parallels between what cell phones did to telephone service audio quality and what Cloudflare is doing to internet availability. My […]

I get asked a lot lately what the I think people who want to get into cyber security should focus on. My go to answer is incident response, since it seems like the mountains of vibe code and half-assed zero trust architectures is creating galactic scale potential breach energy. Would that be […]

If you find the fediverse useful, don’t forget to support your instance (assuming they accept support). While the software is free, running instances is far from it. I am glad to be part of the community and want to see it continue on as a viable alternative. Thank you all for being here and I […]

Which firewall vendor package will disclose critical vulnerabilities in time to ruin Christmas for many? and why is it probably Fortinet?

On my way to see the Trans Siberian Orchestra! Don’t break the internet while I’m gone.

Happy #caturday! Here’s Gnocchi attempting to steal treats mission impossible style.

Is there some law or social dynamics that dictates HOAs predictably descend into chaos? Looking at the current political situation in the US, I think I know the answer, but it seems like a fascinating doctoral research topic

3d printed poor people soup for lunch today 😕

Random realization: MS Teams is the Lotus Notes of web meetings.

It seems like a suboptimal marketing approach to send me emails shaming me for the number of youtube views on a podcast as a lure to get me to subscribe to a magic youtube growth service. Imagine if a dentist said "man, your teeth are an ugly mess and it's not surprising no one wants to talk to […]

I really should not be left to deal with my thoughts

I am so honored to have been awarded the first annual infosec.exchange peace prize. 🏆

TFW you join meetings with a consulting client and all they want to talk about is my podcast 😅

I heard someone refer to an IT dashboard as a “trashboard” and I can’t stop giggling.

I have so so many questions https://techcrunch.com/2025/12/03/end-to-end-encrypted-smart-toilet-camera-is-not-actually-end-to-end-encrypted/
