Have somehow found myself up the front for @thebugle.bsky.social in Melbourne. Fingers crossed that @zaltzcricket.bsky.social will be signing copies of Does Anything Eat Bankers?

Good job everyone! We've fixed the mental health of teenagers by banning them from (some) social media.

Next, let's improve everyone's health outcomes by banning cancer #auspol

The secret to getting good at anything right here
The actual secret to why I know stuff is that I ask a question any time I don’t understand literally anything. I don’t care how simple it is. Anybody who makes fun of you for asking a simple question likely doesn’t know the answer either

This is not the psychic damage I needed this morning
Half Life (1998) is now as old as the first ever arcade game, Computer Space (1971) was when Half Life was released.

Based on their writing in the Epstein emails no wonder why rich assholes think AI being to compose a basic essay is miraculous.

Buying a company by taking out a massive loan, then making the company you bought responsible for paying off that loan, is so patently evil that it should be beyond illegal. The kind of thing that inspires enlightened societies without corporal punishment to bring back the death penalty as a one-off

By the way this is not how MFA is supposed to work anymore. You're only supposed to have to do it once. It works fine at my job because we have an actual identity team and comprehensive SSO. This is your company's fault and you should make a noise about it.
• type password to open laptop
• enter password for intranet browser
• enter passcode into personal phone
• enter passcode for MS Authenticator
• enter time sensitive numerical code
• enter passcode for MS Authenticator (again?!)

This is insane I am just trying to put in a request for time off

Somehow this aging laptop sticker has become more relevant in 2025. We should all be judged by the enemies we have made. Onya @thekrebscycle.bsky.social , keep fighting the good fight.

thanks to an incident involving a firmware update and my own hubris, i am rebuilding my dns server rather that watching #AUSvIND this afternoon

Today I watched the Boxing Day Test and The Substance, and I'm not sure which had the more batshit-crazy ending #AUSvIND

"Should voting be optional for people over 65?"

Voting is already optional for everyone. The only mandatory part is marking your name off the electoral roll. #auspol

• A large class of attacks succeed because of usability failures
• Stolen credential attacks—a major vector today—succeed because the available solutions are not user-friendly

Farewell to one of the greats. Happy retirement Steve Bellovin.
