I've just about had it with the vagaries of true/false positive/negative. Humbly presented: a more descriptive alternative.

We just translated a wave of our ICE coverage into Spanish. No paywall, no email signup necessary. From leaks about Palantir's work with ICE to ICE's new facial recognition app, we think there is a massive public interest in this info. Read why and support us here: www.404media.co/were-publish...

A reminder that you can get 50% off the new version of The Homelab Almanac with code OMGVERSIONTHREE until the end of June! I'm really happy with the new version, and I think you will be too. taggartinstitute.org...

Some days on a thrunt, the TAs are indistinguishable from the engineer who is highly motivated to break the rules. Using a scheduled task to run net.exe to add yourself to the administrators group on every login is commitment.

Uhh, apparently we have Entra SSO on Linux now? 🤯 learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/...

I put together some thoughts on the mitigation advice regarding "ClickFix" attacks. taggart-tech.com/cli...

I wish someone would reward my work with Ambrose and Gunnel.

I've watched 25 movies so far in 2025. Only 2000 to go.

Superintendent Chalmers: fentanyl labs? Principal Skinner: yes Chalmers: that the law enforcement folks were leaving alone? Skinner: yes Chalmers: localized entirely in Canada? Skinner: yes Chalmers: may I see them? Skinner: ...no

RMMs are RATs you pay for. Thanks for attending my TED talk.

Little known fact: Before the crowbar was invented. Crows simply drank at home.

Regex is how I imagine eldritch horrors work. You look at it and it makes no sense and it's scary. As you stare, for a split second there is understanding. The universe expands before your eyes, reality unraveling. Then the madness sets in.

The NSA being asked to delete the word "privilege" is so funny. Goodbye every DFIR report.

I think it is thematically fitting that Donald Duck is a ska fan.

I feel like Beyonce has a ska record in her

Tabletop scenario: Elon Musk walks in and pulls the big "Disable 802.1x" lever like that scene in Ghostbusters, what controls do you still have

Pick it up! #vinyl #ska

17 million in a single hand 😉

Psychic by Darkside might just be a perfect album.

Even now, I really miss this city. #vinyl #punk #losangeles

When my wife is out of town, I listen to weird German post punk at 7am. #vinyl #postpunk

I am so excited to finally show you the stable alpha of Venture, a cross-platform GUI for parsing Windows Event Logs! github.com/mttaggart... Venture was developed with support from my employer with the intent of creating an open source tool for all. Thank you, UCLA Health!

I went record shopping today and I am going back to my roots. Like most I really developed my taste in music as a teenager and I was very into this drone-y post punk sound. #vinyl #interpol #postpunk

My daughter today was sitting at my desk and said she was working. When I asked what her job was she said "oh, I just do work". I feel this in my core.

Hey Bsky! I'm writing a piece on Python package security, and I'd really like to interview someone involved with the Debian Python team or someone who's a Fedora package sponsor to talk about the process. If you or anyone you know would be up for a 30-minute interview, drop me a DM! Thank you!

I've been doing chores all day. Unclogged some drains, tightened some handles, hung a mirror, and put up some smoke detectors. Also I got a pedicure today. Time to chill with some vinyl. #punk #vinyl #fugazi

Well it turns out InTune Device Compliance policies don't matter at all. labs.jumpsec.com/tokensmith-b... Thankfully you can still detect intrusions with some older detection techniques like risky sign ins and looking for Check My Sign In (cmsi) events from the InTune company portal ID

My daughter is home sick so I'm listening to records and cleaning. So far on my playlist has been Mustard Plug, The Adolescents, and The Descendants.

How many tobacco related crimes does the ATF actually pursue?

Chili day!

I just threatened my wife to throw away all of our mismatched Tupperware and replace them with the vastly superior deli cups and I might just do it...

Mister Rogers never misses

This is the game. Be mad if you want, but if the IC pulled this off in China, you’d think it was based. This is SolarWinds and OPM and a dozen other examples: espionage at scale facilitated by poor code in products and lack of security hygiene. Be mad if you want, but don’t pretend this is unfair.

Dune taking place 10,000 years after the butlerian jihad was a mistake.

I bought myself some more gator sauce as an early Christmas present and I am very pleased.

New research: We've been monitoring a threat actor publishing dozens of trojanized GitHub repositories targeting threat actors, leaking hundreds of thousands of credentials along the way securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/mut...

IPv6 was a mistake.

Pro tip: put your phishing implant in the "unsubscribe here" link and spam legitimate looking marketing email to IT staff. You'll bypass the SOC analysis and annoy enough admins into getting them to click the link.

Dark Wire by @josephcox.bsky.social was absolutely my favorite read this year. Exceptional journalism is hard to come by these days.

My computer is currently broken and all I want to do is make a fusion gif of the eye of sauron and elf on a shelf snitching to Santa.

Fuck I think we totally forgot that part in Dune Pt. 2 about not falling for charismatic violent folk heroes fueled by vengeance who look like Timothee Chalamet in a hoodie

This is shameful. I don't like to yuck people's yums but I draw the line here.

A lot of you have never worked in the service industry and it really shows.
