I can always tell when John Strand teaches a class. It is not my birthday :)

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

If you are doing cold calls or using a service that "sets appointments" for you, then you are unethical in my opinion and should be put out of business. I would love to hear how you legitimize to yourself this behavior.

Am I the only one that thinks "I bet they are lost" when they see OSINT challenges posted? Like hey dude, we get it, I have no idea where I am either!

This morning, I was thinking about the past and where I am. About a year ago I was in the deepest depression I have experienced. As I have talked openly about, I was suicidal and pretty dark.

Concerned about Twitter’s new AI policy and blocking changes? I’ve got you covered! Listen to my latest podcast to learn why many (including myself) are choosing to say goodbye. sharedsecurity.net/2024/11/18/w... Watch on YouTube: youtu.be/NBr5jmnIzkA

Started rewatching West Wing the other day. I let it run in the background. Anyone else get teary or emotional during various scenes in it?

Got a reference call for a friend who used to work at Secure Ideas. They are being interviewed and the company wanted references. I find these calls funny as I have no idea how they think I would respond. Of course I am going to say nice things. He wouldn't list me otherwise.

The fact that Ally Bank blocks @shopify.bsky.social as fraud is ridiculous. You walk me through the fraud verification and STILL deny the purchase. Pretty sad that your fraud dept doesn't follow their own procedures.

Great read for all of us new to Bluesky. I’d add the feature to use or not use the in app browser and the ability to “detach” a quote are really nice. www.theverge.com/24295933/blu...

Working through code today and my submission for @shmoocon.bsky.social Am I horrible for wanting to use a Muppets theme for my talk?

OK dumb question I am sure. If I am using the web interface, is there an easy way to follow back people? In my notifications I have a list of people, and want to hover and follow them back.

Thinking through next year and where I would like to present. Mainly thinking through how I determine what is "worth" going to from both a business and a personal stance. It is interesting the different reasons that move way too many conferences and events up the list.

I have no idea if this will replace my Twitter account, but I think it might. Set this up a while back but want to start using it. Recommendations on who to follow?
