There are many small non-profits that need amazon wishlists and meta accounts to survive. That's just a hard reality that a lot of casual private users don't seem to understand. They don't have the option to simply boycott and lose all of the donations that flow through those channels.

Looking for an Illustrator replacement. Everything suggested so far by the internet has been buggy af. Anything out there that I can do vector-based drawing with? I don’t need a lot of bells and whistles, just shapes, colors, resizing, maybe line manipulation?

It absolutely makes sense that men are using AI more and seeing more job benefits, because confidently spouting nonsense in the shape of information (what LLMs are programmed to do) has always been much more of a pathway for career advancement for men than for others.

Visa is easy but you have to trick the phone tree with Mastercard 1. select option that you have a card 2. select option to for account info 3. press a few random buttons when asked to give ur card, wait until it transfers you to an agent 4. Request to file a complaint abt discriminatory practices

This goes right to the heart of what I have told people for ages... Do not keep your contact list EXCLUSIVELY in electronic form. Carry a small printed card with the phone numbers of your most important contacts. I keep mine both in my wallet and under my phone case itself.

If you will still be in vegas on the 11th, and want to hang at the pool boop me, i have a few passes for the pool

Managed a discount code for Black Hat but still have a friend who needs a free (expo hall) pass if anyone happens to have them (looking at you sales and marketing team friends) thank you in advance.

If you have extra $ @dianainitiative.bsky.social came in short this year with sponsors (shocked pikachu face) I know MANY not for profits & conferences are in the same place so if you are donating to better causes (mutual aid, Trans Life Line, Abortion Funds etc) we get it and agree! but if you can

This is journalism at its best. Incredible and essential work.

we need a security training solution which includes phish testing which includes; integration into Vanta such that for every new user in a group (i.i employee) they are automatically enrolled in phishing training and security awareness training, and report back their status (in SLA or not) to vanta

Via Alex Curley: Many people have asked me which public media stations need donations the most right now. Obviously, the data is all on my Substack, but it's admittedly not that easy to get to.

so @cameowood.com is killing the Q&A right now 😍 she’s so good at this, born to be famous

AI voice clones have hit the White House AGAIN, now impersonating the Secretary of State to other Gov officials to try to steal secrets/access. Here is a video of me live demoing how quick (2 min) and easy it is to clone a voice to hack and how to catch AI voice clone attacks in action!
