Hey all, I’m starting my search for internships. If you know of a good company looking for interns, I’d love to know.
I’m a second year in computer engineering, hoping to go into cyber something. I’m adaptable to nearly everything, and I’m open to just about anywhere.

November has all the interesting days. Today marks 55 years since Oregon’s beached whale incident.
It’s probably good no one else has tried dynamite since then.

TIL that when the @andnxor.bsky.social badge mentions chip clips they don’t mean the things to hold a bag of chips closed.
I was really confused why/how someone had a special chip clip. I’ll be inventing something very jank as a substitute now.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Today is the 50th anniversary of the Edmund Fitzgerald sinking.
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald is playing on repeat at my school. Surprised that’s the only thing so far today.

Today’s random project. Saw this at an estate sale and couldn’t pass up the awesome shiny box.
If InstallShield ever works I might be able to share photos of the game too.

First snow of the season. Lightsaber fights and Christmas music blasting. Also one dude skidding (intentionally) down the hill in what appears to be crocs.

Smelly’s life must be so fascinating.
I have the source code to Lockbit 5.0
Someone randomly messaged me saying they had the source code. I didn't believe them.
They sent me the source code.
They disappeared.
I have no idea what's going on

Met someone with a tattoo of Johnny Cash today. I was the first to identify him correctly the first time. Past guesses included Elvis (fair, similar hair), Ray somebody (jazz maybe?) and others.
Someone else guessed it was Elon Musk. I need a moment to cry somewhere.

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"
Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries.
No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.

A lady on TikTok has been calling churches pretending to be a mother with a baby who needs formula and several churches turned her away. But wouldn’t you know that when she called a Mosque (Islamic Center of Charlotte) they immediately said yes.

I am older than gender markers on passports! How do you regulate gender? By making it a form of government ID. It has nothing to do with state security, only regulation

Getting around to having some fun with this.
It’s a very fun puzzle so far, and I suspect I’ve barely touched the surface.

Go look at the moon, it’s huge tonight!
The full moon clouds always remind me of the plant scene from Totoro for some reason.
