    For no apparent reason, my right knee has been unhappy for a few days, so this morning I wrapped it before getting to work on my Ural Workhorse. She saw the wrap and asked what I did to hurt myself. I told her the truth: &quot;I didn&#39;t die young enough.&quot; #AgingIsFun If getting old was easy, everyone would do it.

    Ever want to grab a couple of people buy their heads and slam their skulls together repeatedly? Nope, me neither, that would be horrible, senselessly violent, and just plain wrong. I can&amp;#39;t believe you even had such a thought.

    FoaF needs help in a space I used to know, a space littered with performative white knighting, followed by cowardice and inaction when it gets dirty. The hacker world, like most of the rest of the world, has DV problems. So many truly horrible people, so many who back and cover for them, and so many more who just ignore it or pretend it isn&amp;#39;t that bad.

    Chatting about how profoundly different our luck is with AI answers on various platforms. She is mostly into fabric arts, especially quilting, but also design and color theory. She generally gets great results. I usually get garbage, I look for mechanical information and things that would fall into the trades. Since the answers come from what has been found out on the Internet, her answers are good because they largely come from women, and mine are largely garbage because they come from men.

    She decided we&#39;re going gluten free. Apparently &quot;gluten&quot; is a German word meaning &quot;happiness&quot;.

    As I wander around West Asheville, I am again reminded of the difference between being welcome, and belonging. And I say that as a strait (ish) old white dude.

    Seventeen years ago today, dozens of hackers gathered at a house somewhere on the west side of Las Vegas... Apparently we started something.

    Oh, look, another once interesting security company has become just another software brothel. No, I’m not telling you which one i’m talking about. You&#39;re probably wondering which one of several that popped into your mind, aren’t you?

    I know &quot;leetspeak&quot; is old and tired now, but still worth mentioning that BSides number 1337 will be BSidesICSDownUnder in Melbourne. Yesterday&#39;s @bsidesjoburg@infosec.exchange was event #1327, tomorrow BSides Adelaide starts, 31st will be Basingstoke, and a week from tomorrow @BSidesLV@infosec.exchange

    RE: https://mindly.social/@DamonCrowley/116958861191335669 Yup, the city of brotherly MF&#39;n love alright. It died of natural causes- it went to Philly, and it died, naturally.

    Looking for my asshole father&#39;s obit, or at least date of death, can&#39;t find anything. I know, I&#39;ll look up uncle Theo&#39;s obit, that will at least mention dad. Nope, fam didn&#39;t even mention his only sibling, my shithead father, in the &quot;predeceased by&quot; list. Did learn that the grandpa I never knew used to be mayor of Trinidad, TX.

    Bertha. Tropical Depression Two is likely to become Tropical Storm Bertha, and while it doesn&#39;t look too terrifying, I wouldn&#39;t underestimate anyone or thing named &quot;Bertha&quot;.
