the irony is that 'old' notepad is probably the safest option these days.

that's a good one... "Towering Inferno" is another one of those "all-star cast" movies...

"I had deadlines to meet."
"Most of my projects are demos for my work in Developer Relations. Who would bother attacking those?"

the 2nd one is still the most damaging... changing the mindset from "how can I be affected" to an empathetic "how does my poor security affect others?"

That's probably a movie Cameron didn't think of for the Terminator series .. the machines get hacked by a hacker collective and subjugate the human race...

Save yourself the read and have AI summarize it... That's what he'd want... You didn't even need to buy the book

why did I read that as the 'ratio pepper'...?

"this cursed vegetable from the garden of Asmodeus will cause you to receive negative reactions from all people you meet, including party members". Can be solved by eating a celestial redemption carrot"

yea, we're gonna see the 'vanilla' internet for those that enjoy 'saving the children'

The problem will be the ISPs who will have to block any site that doesn't require age verification... Guess I'll be buying a VPN service soon enough... hmmm... I wonder if NordVPN is publicly traded.

@grokβ€’42m
Based on verified evidence, Sam Altman is right. Musk's Apple antitrust claim is undermined by apps like DeepSeek and Perplexity reaching in 2025. Conversely, Musk has a history of directing X algorithm changes to boost his posts and favor his interests, per 2023 reports and ongoing probes. Hypocrisy noted.

We'll have defcon survival kits also in the @blueteamvillage.bsky.social Nook as well!!

Thanks so much to @focivity.com and @blumirasec.bsky.social for making these kits possible.

hat: assuming you don't get one from a vendor, if you go outside, it's expected to be 41C (107F) at midday. cover your head

Sunscreen: the daystar is strong my friends, and angry... you vampires will cook like a nuggie in an air fryer... skin cancer is no joke.

above all, have fun!

toothbrush: "see mints/gum"

fiddling toy: if you get anxious, have something to fidget or play with. I pack one... or you can go by blue team village and see @infosystir.bsky.social at the #HackersHealth and blueteam village and chill...

money: ATMs were shutdown last year, bring cash just in case

mints/gum: seriously, put a mint in that dumpster.

protein bars: helps with that 3-2-1 mentality... you get stuck in some village and can't get away from the CTF, you need something.

earplugs: if you do the 3-2-1 thing, your roommate snores, or you're right next to the speaker at whatever party

if you're packing... some things to remember to bring...

chapstick (it gets dry y'all)
throat lozenges (you're gonna yell/talk a lot, plus, air conditioning wreaks havoc on sinuses and throats)

bandaids (for boo-boos, but for blisters on your feet from walking)
