  So basically what we have to financially live through now is the equivalent of the Fortune 50 going all in and laying people off over NFTs.

  If you’re feeling glum about big tech stomping on us for the sake of ai and personal wealth, a suburb of Melbourne halted a data centre opening with their ….wheelie bins…. after the idiots forgot they’d need to connect power to it. https://greens.org.au/vic/news/media-release/people-power-prevails-data-centre-giant-loses-billions

  I really didn’t have money on Proton crashing and burning as a trusted community partner and company due to leadership AI psychosis this rapidly. It’s incredibly disappointing and a huge loss.

  People on Instagram cheering on Poland wanting a US military base, like the US didn’t ignore an entire god damn destabilising attack on Poland’s grid only a year ago.

  Everyone has kind of laughed it off but there’s actually now an official investigation by multiple organizations into why my US election ballot hasn’t been released from US customs in a month without any explanation.

  Hey friends, I'd like your thoughts on this on this, our friendly platform. Especially Australia IT pals. I took a huge demotion (years of work) to be able to move to Australia. Happy with my decision, love my work, love it here, going for citizenship, no issues on my side. Life is worth more than money. It's like, blatantly obvious though. I pulled most of my bios off the internet except basic LinkedIn. Do I reduce my presence so that isn't as visible academically or professional...

  Americans and other white people with strong passports are absolutely going to drive me to a bottle of whiskey with the perpetual, “my company shouldn’t complain when I work with no proper visa or authorisation from a foreign county, without asking” comments, and I’m a huge remote work advocate.

  The billionaire media is laying off great tech journalists in crazy quantities this year - replacing them with AI and sycophants. This would be a great time to throw some dollars, euros, pounds, or dollarydoos to @flipboard.com/@404media, @ProPublica@newsie.social or another independent outlet.

  Yeah a million bucks is great but have you tried —-after two years I can finally eat with the fork in my left hand.

  You don’t know how it feels when you’ve spent a decade taking to a void about serious threats to faltering water ICS security and the news finally breaks and the headlines are “vulnerable PLCs can be hacked”. I’m just wrecked.

  One of the Chicago news anchors asked what High School I went to and mate I moved 20,000km to never meet anyone who knows what Naperville is or what it was like being the poor kid there.

  Rather be poor and not famous than have anyone question in twenty years where I stood on human rights, or if I was afraid to take a stand against evil.

  You might think you’re prepping for the apocalypse but have you seen Victoria’s LORA mesh networks?

  Mad Max is actually kind of a shitty series because when you move to Australia as a punk and you find all the Mad Max people, they are.... pretty much like all the punks everywhere, and absolutely the people to leave your small child with. It's the... other ones you have to worry about.

  If I gambled on both NFTs and the metaverse to the tune of millions and millions of dollars and even renamed my company accordingly I would be so canceled I’d be farming potatoes, but people are still quoting Zuck AI predictions on my daily news feed.

  Um, can anyone please help me with a contact at VirusTotal to unblock a school IP?

  I’ve been talking to a lot of journalists about the US Midwest water hacking and I get asked a lot why we hear so little about cyber threats against water and sewage when it’s what scares us as practitioners the most. I think it’s psychological. >>>

  Nobody warns you how tremendously disconcerting going back to an American restaurant is after living anywhere else long term. - them walking off with your credit card & no tap to pay - the huge portions and sodium - the weird attentiveness for tips - being IDed over 30 - flags everywhere

  Since we are doing eating and Australia this is how you eat fast food sushi in Australia - one of the cheapest quick bites you can get anywhere.

  Emigrating has generally been a very, very complicated and difficult task, but by far the hardest aspect has been relearning how to use a knife and fork. It's way harder than accents or driving on the other side of the road.

  I’m in Singapore, and somehow I accidentally booked myself a tiny Disney princess hotel room that I can barely move around in without bonking my shins. It is tremendously goofy and fun but I have also been on 70 hours of flights so I’m very tired

  Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and The Castle are both absolutely iconic movies for millennials and Gen X, and I can’t believe I never saw them in America. I mean, Hugo Weaving giving a thoughtful performance on 90s LGBT struggles, in drag, with dialogue on trans life at the time. (Cis actor aside.)

  People don’t get that how far a bit of courtesy and effort goes in job hunts. I have gifted conference passes, party invites, given referrals, certification vouchers, and internships to mentees who showed up and cared. I’ve also permanently blocklisted people who low effort AI spammed, or no showed.

  I bought a Fjallraven backpack because they were so highly recommended, and I’m sorry, I don’t understand the point and I have massive regrets. Someone needs to sell me the bag I purchased, because it’s not padded well and has no luggage strap or extra security pockets. Why do people buy these?

  I’ll be debuting a new paper tomorrow at #OTCEP withJan Hoff. It’s about how to detect and more relevantly, remediate large scale commodity malware infections in legacy Windows environments that are unfortunately extremely common in critical infrastructure. https://dragos.brightspotcdn.com/26/7e/547e75c5410ba8e2aec7525fae46/dragos-2026-otcep-ir-whitepaper.pdf
