I know it’s been said again and again, but what does it say about ChatControl that its backers keep explicitly *exempting* law enforcement and national security accounts from content scanning?

Fact check: I drew this before becoming a parent and this conversation never did happen for me. My daughter (3 years) doesn’t even use the word internet. Internet is just an expectation. Truly an incredible shift in my lifetime

In ServiceNow any ticket that gets assigned to our group gets auto-closed if the caller is from New Jersey, because there’s just no helping them.

I thought word of all the neat Windows shortcuts had already gone around already, but in order to save some people some time: Win+V: Cyclical copy/paste buffer Win+Shift+S: Snipping tool for quick partial screenshots Win+Period: Emoji selector

“ValiDrive” New GRC Windows utility to quickly spot-check any USB mass storage drive for deliberate sizing fraud and errors: grc.com/validrive.htm Over the next day I'll be fleshing out its description page. But the Windows App is ready for the world now! 👍

Did you know that if you hold CTRL it will pause Task Manager updating, which means the process names don't move around and are easier to select when you're sorted by resource usage? 👀 Works in both Windows 10 & 11

The inside of the Dubai Giant Hummer — 3x bigger than a normal one — is insane. The 21-foot tall vehicle is basically a small house on wheels with a toilet, living room and ladders to enter.

5 panel comic. 1st panel: guy and girl on couch with popcorn, guy says "this movie is great you're gonna love it!". 2nd panel: TV displays "NOT AS GOOD AS YOU REMEMBER". 3rd panel: Guy looks concerned, girl looks bored. 4th panel: TV displays "ALSO A LOT LONGER THAN YOU THOUGHT". 5th panel: Guy is panicking and sweating, clutching the couch arm rest

The rookie years breaking into infosec are rough. I felt like an idiot most of the time. Didn't understand the acronym soup. I couldn't even figure out what to ask half the time. I was so lost. Here are 13 infosec career hacks I wish I had known when I was getting started:
