Do you link to people on LinkedIn that you've never actually met? Suppose one of them asked for a 30 min Zoom call for career advice-- would you take that meeting at a mutually convenient time?

Are you having trouble writing the right #kql queries for your incident response process. Then check out the #DFIR section for queries on email compromise, malicious files, persistence and more.

Linux: "Everything is a file."
"Everything? Directories?"
Linux: "File."
"Sockets? Devices?"
Linux: "Yup, Files."
"My constant worry that I'll never be good enough?"
Linux: "2 files actually."

I love the creative and satisfying way in which @troyhunt increases spammers' costs by wasting their time: troyhunt.com/sending-spammer…

Less than a week in, I'm one endorsement away from 25% of the endorsements needed. Please leverage any network you may have to spread the word. We need all members to come together.

Please people, if you're ever facing the choice of "Should I watch porn on my company-provided laptop or my own personal computer?" please do everybody a favor and use your own equipment. #HateInternalInvestigations

This could make for a fun season
I’ve got a great idea for a new @survivorcbs season! Do BLOOD vs. WATER where everyone on the other tribe has a “blood” relation. The twist? No one knows who the relatives are. Reveal? Keep it a secret? Sabotage to help loved ones? Think of the layers! #Survivor 🩸💧

If you work in enterprise defense, you should absolutely do this. Almost none of your users will ever need to mount an ISO.
Those who have legitimate needs can use PowerShell or a third party tool. Huge risk reduction.
For those who missed the stream, an easy method to prevent mounting ISOs is to delete this registry value:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Windows.ISO.File\shell
Default value is "mount." Null it and Explorer will no longer mount ISOs on doubleclick. Still mounts from the command line.

“I’m not here for you. At all.”
Sums up the experience from my earliest days of loving technology. I’m not here to fulfill some dude’s fantasy of a hot chick who “actually gets what you’re talking about”— not an extension of your ego.
I’m here because I belong & helped build it
Yes, I'm colorful and full of passion and culture and emotions. Add in a dash of hardware jargon and it makes any average engineer cream.
But I'm not here for you. At all.

As the bars close, a brawl early this morning in downtown Orlando escalates into a mass shooting as somebody opens fire into the crowd. Where are the “good people with guns”? Or how about more mental health support? OR HOW ABOUT TAKING FUCKING HANDGUNS OUT OF CIRCULATION?

this looks really cool
I had some fun today rewriting some bash things to use `gum`. A+ tool; would enjoy its juicy goodness again.

I am really not a fan of using “we” to describe the US covid policy response and resulting behavior. “We” didn’t decide to phase out mitigation policy. “We” didn’t sign up for endless manipulative messaging. “We” didn’t give up. “We” are mostly victims of what “they” have done.

De Santis is dangerous and has a good chance of being our next President.
Ron DeSantis filed a public complaint against a bar that does drag brunch.
In the complaint, he references a 1947 ruling that "men impersonating women in a suggestive fashion" is against the law.
They are building the framework to go after all drag, and likely all trans people.

It breaks my heart too, Cliff…
Met Cliff Stoll in 1998, shortly after his book was released & after reading it. Then several other times at conferences and work project. This is a must read, to understand Cliff & cybersecurity. Thank you @a_greenberg and @WIRED for the excellent story. wired.com/story/meet-the-mad…

Fantastic thread on the physiological impacts of burnout (and some suggestions for combatting it).
A 🧵 on burnout
Yesterday I learned that when people are burnt out, their amygdala enlarges. For all you non-neuroscientists, here's what that means and why it's important. 1/

Live in such a way that people can easily tell that, as a kid, you paid close attention every day when you watched Mr Roger's Neighbourhood.
