Cautiously pessimistic, esp. about cyber things.
The owls are not what they seem.

Oh no! What should I do??

That one is malware. It should look like the one I’m using. Or is it the other way around? 🤔

Right back at you!!!

Thinking about recurring classes of coding error, are there any patterns in the exploited vulnerabilities? What are the software makers doing to ensure they have eliminated those classes going forward?

Why do they call it "malvertising" when it seems that it's just another social engineering delivery mechanism? The user has to run a shell command, type a password, etc. It's not a direct launch of the malware. Or am I confused?

That's why I called them "legacy" MFA. Make them feel like tech debt that will lead to a breach. Because that's exactly what they are.

It will catch fire. We can do hard things! 🔐 💪🏻

It would be great to identity the features we’d like to see the OS vendors change so we have security baked in rather than bolted on.
I’ve seen scary things happen when people try to be more secure with personal VPNs.

Great speed. Fingerprint reader. 16G RAM. Good battery life. I liked the Pixelbook Go styling but this one is still good. The price was right!
One note: Signal doesn’t run on ARM so I can’t run it in the VM. Feel free to petition Signal to make ARM a first class citizen. 😇

Just got a Lenovo Chromebook and it’s fantastic. My last one was from 2018 so I really feel the improvement.

It’s about security. It needs to be baked in. Not bolted on.
