Reading shade from “professionals” in Cyberz railing against Dragos. GTFO. No one is exempt. Every one of us are targets.

@VidmoOreda Fuck's sake, really? I thought Dragos' performance and ensuing exhibition were exemplary.

@VidmoOreda the stars in my eyes when I saw how well RBAC was instituted and how well it performed.

Just beautiful.

just re-posting the et_labs message about the snake APT suricata rules provided by CISA. They're genuinely awful and we don't advise using them unless you're in to masochism and false positives. https://twitter.com/ET_Labs/status/1656703574829588480

I am unsure why using Chrome feels so clunky nowadays. I am not the biggest Edge fan but it seems better than chrome. Did I miss a browser memo? Should I be using a different browser nowadays?

@leerayl Curious if you're on Windows or not.

Microsoft has slowly been injecting friction in between non-Edge browsers and Windows functions, I fear.

Elon Musk gives me deep Frank Sinatra informant vibes.

He's setting himself up to be the platform for the next Jan 6, but doing it in a way that can be utterly compromised if he wills it, so he can access and inform if he chooses.

The latter also gives off putrid Julian Assange information-power vibes.

(For those unfamiliar with the history, Sinatra ingratiated himself into multiple mafia circles and then fell all over himself offering to inform the FBI about it all.)

Is it CISA as in "Sis-ah" or "Siz-ah"???? I keep hearing it as "siz-ah" and it's really got me questioning my life choices. :think_bread:

@IntelSoup i use "seese-ah"

One of my most bitter resentments about adulthood is that now that I'm large enough to absolutely bowl through kids in Red Rover it's no longer socially or legally acceptable for me to do so.

So, hey, asking for a friend, but has anyone written stuff about caring for aging parents from the perspective of a neurodiverse son/daughter/enby?

(it me. the friend is me.)

GOOD MORNING CHILDREN! DO NOT BELIEVE THE LIES OF FRIDAY, FRIDAY IS JUST A TROJAN HORSE BY THE FORCES OF MONDAY.

DON'T LET THAT FRIDAY FEELING SOCIALLY ENGINEER YOU!

...i mean, come on, does that not look like a 69 icon to other people? am I really that uniquely internet-damaged?

A lot of criticism of Mastodon community vibes going on over at Bluesky

@micahflee Wait, shitposting is discouraged?!

No one told me...

Random reminder, folks: Mastodon DMs are not encrypted. Server owner and their designees can see them if they choose. Keep sensitive stuff to Signal or similar.

(Not necessarily a criticism - instances create liability, and liability requires some mitigation. But something to be aware of and make sure others are aware of when using the platform.)

Some introductory information:

I'm a security operations engineer in the cybersecurity space, a lovingly hungry reader (nonfiction, speculative fiction, and horror especially), a sometimes-writer when I have the brainspace for it.

I love crows, spooky things, democracy, and coffee.

I'm at times depressed, or anxious, and diagnosed autistic so I talk about neurodivergence too.
