@darfplatypus@infosec.exchange If you’re a “brownie purist” who insists the center should be gooey, they may not be for you. To get the edges actually done, there isn’t much “middle” to remain gooey. It’s soft at best. But I always disliked too gooey a brownie, so they’re good for me. (Again, same as my mom. My kid on the other hand likes the gooey parts.)

@darfplatypus@infosec.exchange I inherited my love of corners from my mom. Which is why many years ago I got her an “all edges, many corners” brownie pan for Mother’s Day.

Absolutely FUUUUUUUCK OFFFFFF!!! HP. I am using legit HP cartridges purchased direct from HP that haven’t been refilled. Sure, they’re getting low, but telling me they aren’t legit is BS.

@chillybot@infosec.exchange So…. Is that a tattoo of a burrito on the front of the… that's a Pokemon of some sort, right? Or is it meant to be a wireframe of a burrito in its location inside the digestive tract?

@cR0w@infosec.exchange Yep. I only go to Black Hat if my employer is paying for me to go, usually to staff the booth. Otherwise, it's just DEFCON and various BSideses. (And HackBoat.)

Recently received an old light-up globe that happens to be the perfect scale for our light-up moon. (18" to our 4.5" moon, near-perfectly matching the real Earth-moon size ratio.)

But… What is the appropriate distance at this scale? It isn't this.

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io Meanwhile, these two wedge shaped computers were sold 17 years apart. As far apart as the original Macintosh from the Titanium PowerBook G4. Or as far apart as the original MacBook Air is from the very first PowerBook 100/140/170.

@deviantollam@defcon.social JFC… Retired three years, first day back. And came back to work in MPLS, what does that say about this person's character that he'd purposefully come back specifically to work in a zone that has had multiple ICE shootings and is having heavy protests? Ducking fumbass.

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social Now I feel like I need to print one of those Realtek labels for my actual PCMCIA Ethernet (10Mbps) cards. And somewhere I have a PCMCIA "projector output" video card that could use the GeForce. :-D
