Third sourcing of one of my vulns. First time that's happened with a legitimate article. Cool!

@npub1ck8…dddj the way I (hi, that's me) understand things to work suggests they are lying.

@npub1p5l…tqn2 That's rule #1... Every VP choice domain should have been like a month ago. It's like $10.

@npub1z0p…d6zw I couldn't tell you much more, but I believe it's a consequence of how it the conversion to a long int works. You could also do `ping 2130706433`, for example.

@npub1lck…zmju yeah, the service itself is honestly great. Works pretty much as advertised and I don't even have a data cap.

AT&T gets a lot of shit -- and rightfully so -- but I've got to say, rolling a truck to re-terminate my fiber line (which I fucked up) within 3 hours of me calling is pretty damn impressive.

@npub168e…nms6 I was taught basically nothing about finances in school. We played a game one day in elementary school, buying and selling things with fake cash, but it wasn't in any way useful.

Court vendors really need to get their shit together. I can't just keep finding admin priv escalations and document or account leaks every other day. It's all so, so bad - worse than any of my disclosures could ever describe. It's incredibly difficult to not just start selling the things I find. As we speak, Maine and Kansas courts are still recovering from cybersecurity attacks; one of the downed platforms is one I discovered vulns in. Meanwhile, zero vendors have bounties.

Grammar question:
I keep being told that punctuation should be inside of a quote, "like this." I hate it a lot and break that rule intentionally most of the time. I wrote a sentence today that made me wonder.
1) is this one of those times that breaking the rule is the right thing to do
2) would it typically be written to avoid that? It turns the statement into a question, which is just silly.
The sentence was: Somebody asked "was this you?"
Not adding a period at the end is killing me.

Fuck it. #YOLO
#Bluesky continues to be entirely non-responsive to the numerous security vulnerabilities I've reported to them, so I spent the evening writing up a nice README and a framework with exploit modules, and just made it all public.
Have fun.
