I guess I haven’t clearly articulated this in writing, but friends do not let friends without substantive IT work experience and/or a credible IT degree take cybersecurity career bootcamps in 2025.

@puppygirlhornypost2 @corbden it’s literally one of the key things I love about riding the motorbike. My brain is running at 100%, especially off the tarmac, and it just means I get a break from all the thoughts.

Last year, TSA officers in the USA found 7000 guns in luggage. 94% of them were loaded.

Honestly, at this stage, just shut the country down.

@evan we would need a way to select, store, and display a location in a post.
