    hey i’m collecting questions for our #CVE panel over on the lunatic site. Throw in if you have some mystery you want solved at @BSidesLV@infosec.exchange on Wednesday. Or, reply here. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/todb_bsideslv-cve-share-7490067904449699841-MP_I/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_ios&amp;rcm=ACoAAAAn7RAB44xlLRNsfdYsGsDX40Om9-sbjVk

    At the CVE Program Virtual Forum, and @jayjacobs@infosec.exchange &amp; @boblord@infosec.exchange have introduced me to menti.com and I am loving it. A billion times better than Slido for live audience feedback.

    On Star Trek, I used to wonder, &quot;Why not just have Data do everything?&quot; Basically, I used to take Maddox&#39;s side in &quot;The Measure of a Man.&quot; Now that I&#39;ve worked with some AI stuff... now I know why. The whole crew of the Enterprise&#39;s job is to keep tabs on Data.

    If you’re super fan and watch all of @pluralistic@mamot.fr’s videos and interviews, you’re going to hear maybe a dozen of his best turns of phrase. If you read his books, you’re getting like the top 100. Reverse Centaur’s Guide is really witty. We got ourselves a Candimericlish Oscar Wilde up in here.

    There continues to be no evidence of hacking in any election resulting in changing an outcome in any US election, by China, Russia or anyone else. I checked whitehouse.gov (at 8:42pm Texas time). There are no declassified documents there describing tampered ballots or results.

    Okay, @Dio9sys@haunted.computer &#39;s interpretation of &quot;balls and strikes&quot; is much, more more than the usual baseball / SCOTUS interpretation.

    RE: https://infosec.exchange/@patrickcmiller/116300127983372591 I wonder how valuable these poached prompts are, or if the extension authors just like watching users get dumber and dumber as they farm out thinking to the machine.

    So did anyone happen to pirate @k8em0’s rendition of “You’ll Adapt?” from her #BsidesSF keynote? If you were there, you will surely agree that it should be nominated for the Best Song Pwnie Award this year.

    Do you have to be high to enjoy open world RPGs? I’m giving #Cyberpunk 2077 another whirl and I wonder if I’ve been doing it wrong by not getting blazed first.

    I don’t care for the fact that Juiceland now sells masticatable comestables. Everything should be in a slurry form. Solids are for chumps.

    Hey, #TongaCon is back. San Francisco-bound nerds who like tiki nonsense, take heed. Sign up if you&#39;re hoping to go. Don&#39;t if you&#39;re not. Pirate attire is optional but encouraged. https://luma.com/cgaloemt

    All candidate-side election software for Democrats, near as I can tell, was invented entirely during the first Obama campaign, and then kinda sorta maintained and expanded since then. Just mountains and mountains of tech debt, and every time the vendors ship a feature it breaks like 3 other things. Oh, real IT support, I&#39;ve kinda missed you as a job. Anyway, I&#39;m curious if the Republican side is similar (also, it&#39;s funny that there&#39;s no one vendor for both sides; the vendors in...

    This is &quot;news&quot; but it strikes me weird. TL;dr: sometimes super expensive #Stingray gear shows up on eBay. My question: who&#39;s the audience for this? $50k-$100k is out of reach for hacker types, or organized crime, who can build their own for much less, and foreign adversaries or domestic cops will buy their own from normal surveillance tech companies, not eBay. https://san.com/cc/ice-uses-this-device-to-surveil-cell-phones-you-can-buy-one-for-50000 (Added CW because the card for...

    Okay this #BSidesSF is shaping up to be pretty ridiculous.

    #BSidesSF part two! The vendor hall is basically an ear worm factory and I am kinda loving it. (Needs more Oklahoma and Music Man.)

    So are we going to get #ICE goons to help out with #CISA too? I’m sure they’d be just as great at the #KEV

    I have hacked time itself in order to learn about the current and future state of CVE. Check it out at RSAC Moscone South in what you would call “this” morning. https://path.rsaconference.com/flow/rsac/us26/FullAgenda/page/catalog/session/1755470003779001WEMM

    RE: https://mstdn.social/@locuta/116069618872093099 SUPER Just so you (and my employer and family) know, I have written down &quot;Cancelling free and fair elections&quot; as my Rubicon, which means I&#39;ll be rioting in the streets until elections are restored. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YFdwfNh5vs And yes, it&#39;s a little squishy to define what counts, but watch the video to get the context, and I do mean &quot;cancelling free and fair elections&quot; and my intention to riot lite...

    Today is my oldest kid&#39;s, Molly&#39;s, birthday, and she would have been 30 today if she wasn&#39;t dead from a gunshot, bringing to a close a rocky few years dealing with opioid addiction. Miss you, kiddo. Anyway, just typing it out loud. And also, let me share a link to one of the best essays I&#39;ve ever read about America&#39;s completely fucked up relationship with the Second Amendment and private gun ownership. It looks like it recently went behind a Substack subscription, but it&#3...

    You in #Texas? North Austin out to Odessa and Temple? Then you can help put Texas and the US back on track by voting for Claire Reynolds or Justin Early for #Congress. They’re both #Democrats and both ready to take back Congress’s Constitutional authority to check this mad executive branch.

    Breaking news: Max Headroom, one of the greatest TV shows ever made, is free on Tubi. I find the terrible Tubi ads really enhance the dystopia.
