When I worked in a SOC I can't recall seeing anything malicious from them directed at my network -- it was usually AWS or Azure instances. I'd focus on behaviors rather than providers -- I found them to be stricter than other prov

It makes me feel bad when I see an obituary like this. I had no idea he existed, but reading I can't question he had an impact on the world. Other corners of the internet people would shit on the hobby just because they don't shar

Devil's advocate, but how is saying someone is an unreliable romantic partner going to financially hurt someone? Maybe the reason I haven't had success in the policy arena is because I've been too kind, given recent events :-

I thought, as a practical matter, it's on the person alleging slander or libel to prove falsehood? I think sometimes folks don't properly threat model what can be done if someone chooses to think about what the consequences for br

I use noscript, ublock origin, and container tabs to isolate my personal email and banking, and often get accused of being a robot. (I'm a real boy!)

I had a similar thing recently. The problem is there's not much they can do until you're terminated, and after termination you need to wait six months to a year while a regualatory body investigates until you get your "letter

Is this understood to be new? I think I got hit with this quite a long time ago. (As in during the pandemic -- long ago in vuln times.) I am willing to discuss it, off the record, if someone provides their signal information.

No, it was a long line of stalls... the origin of the term "electric town" not any singular place.

Prior to this didn't they lose a lot of the little parts stores/stall in... I think it was Akihabara IIRC? I am struggling to re-find the name of the area, it was like a giant open air radio shack and it's my understanding ha

None of the meaningful help I've had since my layoff has come from people who are heavy LI users. I could leave the network today, and the same people who offered to put in a reference for my application or do a CV review would still r
