PLEASE SHARE: I need your help with nerd puns.

For the @eff 3rd Annual Defcon Benefit Poker Tournament, I am going to do decks of cards for the swag. So, the cards will have HTTP status codes on them.

Obviously 418 will be the Joker.

What are some other great ones? like, which card deserves to be 451?

Big thanks to @kendraserra for the suggestion to use HTTP error codes on a deck of cards!

@Tarah @eff
451 has to be a burning book

An old friend may be rehearsing a defensive security product pitch with me before the real thing with potential investors.

Do people have any generic investor-style questions for me I could use to make it a bit more realistic?

davep,

@jawarajabbi interesting, thanks.

davep,

@ittavern Excellent, thanks.

He's done this sort of thing before (MBA, successful IPO etc) so I'm hoping he'd be ready for these basic questions. But that's exactly what I wanted as a baseline 🙏

davep,

@riskythinking @ittavern
Thanks. They already used their own money for nearly two years though.

Biden's influence could stop the massacre in yet he does nothing except supply more arms to Israel.

If you think the intervention against the is proportionate but stopping the ongoing massacre isn't infinitely more important, you have very odd priorities indeed.

This was a very dense forest a few weeks ago.

davep,

@jerry That's shifting baseline syndrome

A doctor might describe the amount of cheese and cured meat I just ate as "inadvisable" and "gambling with my health". Lighten up, imaginary doctor. Live a little.

@wendynather @the_etrain
I can picture the massive baguette replete with butter, cheese, the finest charcuterie, cornichons and Dijon mustard 😋

I think a lot about all the people sick or dead from covid complications whose families and docs will never say that

davep,

@seachanger I bought masks in a pharmacy in January 2020 and was surprised to find nobody else had. Obviously that soon changed.

The first lockdown was very weird here in France. You literally had to print out a timestamped form to walk your dog or go to the shops. I was asked for my papers by a gendarme when going to the local superette on the very first day. It was nuts and so French.

davep,

@ahermitforhire It's during the massage that I get totally blissed out. It's wonderful.

Me, being brought into a multi-vendor multi-day P1 incident because I’m good at Windows:

“Has anyone looked at the Windows logs?”

Narrator: They had not looked at the Windows logs.

Post-credits scene: The error was in the Windows logs.

davep,

@SwiftOnSecurity When I was a troubleshooter wheeled out to customer sites I'd tend to just tell them to let me get on with the job. "But change control" ... "I've just flown here and am fixing an issue in prod, document it if you want"...

Or Me: ""So I sniffed your network..." Them: "Arrest him!" (ok, I was at a foreign top secret missile producing company site)... Me: "If you want, but I found the problem". They invited me back 😂

davep,

@tinmouth @SwiftOnSecurity
Exactly. "Where are your ITIL Gods now?"

Software developers: do you do any software architecture before coding?

davep,

@evan Exactly. And if you don't address the hard architectural stuff at the start, the effort required keeps going up.

Pretty amazing rescue of a bloke in a frozen lake, with help from his dog https://twitter.com/mspnorthernmi/status/1748099325413003651

I am not a fan of swearing. If you can't find a more appropriate word, then you should fuck the fuck off.

davep,

@Fragarach I think it's possibly due to the difference in usage between the UK and US.

Can people think of any cryptographic/infosec-related prog rock song titles? I'll start with:

Blimey 😳

davep,

@aemaeth @politico
Quite possibly. Not sure, to be honest. But if you don't get that visiting Politico from, say, the US, I would assume so.

CISA, FBI warn on risks of China-made drones https://www.nextgov.com/cybersecurity/2024/01/cisa-fbi-warn-risks-china-made-drones/393410/

davep,

@patrickcmiller This is possible for almost any smart device. Is it just hypopothetical or have they actually discovered any such exploitation using drones as a vector?

davep,

@RickiTarr I certainly did.
