It is sometimes necessary, in these difficult times, to spend an hour scrolling through clothing sites, hoping that one of these gowns is going to give you the strength to fight fascism.
Even when I don't go to Vegas, the Vegas gossip comes to me.
Ron Deibert is absolutely the voice that the infosec industry needs to be listening right now. We are in a moment where fascism is consolidating power and most of the infosec industry is either playing along or is busy bragging about how much AI they've shoved into their products.

Website/device age verification is a privacy and security nightmare and everyone who tells you that this is a solved problem is lying to you.
Do I think that the national Democratic Party will learn anything from Mamdani's win? No. Do I think it is important to enjoy a goddamn victory once in a while? Yes.
I would like to be Chrisjen Avasarala: impeccably-dressed, running things, swearing like a sailor.
But I am Camina Drummer: barely keeping it together, sort of in charge, with a lot of complicated relationships and a strong eyeliner game.
