[ENG/GER] NOT a bitcoiner/stacker/maxi. I am here to have a damn good time! Rabbithole conniseur; I enjoy random stuff. :D Ex-Furry, (close to) blind, hobby developer/sysadmin, waifu enjoyer, long hair fetish (#hairjob). I sometimes talk about NSFW stuff; because fucking is fun =) (DMs always open.)

Aight, am out :)

Read y'all tomorrow! Good night #Nostr from germany~

Quite an underrated cover imho, actually really good. Vibed to that during my last smoke break for today.

Mood :)

Although Primal and Amethyst give me vastly different numbers for my follows lol.

Still, this do be awesome!

I haven't found the song that takes full advantage of all that Bad Apple, as a composition, has to offer. This one covers the main melody quite well - but it doesn't take advantage of the depth and the various segments at all. Still neat, totally a banger - but not quite a 10/10.

Whenever I think "I have seen so much, what could surprise me at this point in the internet?", I immediately have to take it back.

Nokia ringtone, but touhou-ish arranged.

Because, why not. XD

There are still wonderful things in the internet aside from all this API craze and walled gardens. Ya just gotta dig real fucking deep.

I sometimes forget that ZUN is very much alive. o.o

Some good food and awesome music later and I am feeling much, much better. Thanks to all ya'll nostriches for being awesome people. ^_^ #Nostr has long become a firm constant of my day, but seing your replys and suggestions is so much fun - so yeah, thanks. <3

Youtube recommended me a video of a "Touhou style arrangement" - well, this is exactly what I need. Upbeat, loud, fast. Just like my mood of wanting to run away from this company I work for. xD

I should just start to channel this at work...

You know, I am trying. I have wrote literal essays in emails about what "Open Source" is, why "this Linux OS" is used in so many places and even more and beyond ... but they don't get it.

They just... dont get it. Give them a GUI and they smile. Give them a terminal and they moan - even if it is Powershell or CMD!

Aside from me, there are possibly three other people that have a functional understanding of IT. The rest? .................... let's just say a 64k modem is faster.

Being told to reduce the security policy in a VPN client to establish a session killed me today. I actually had my forehead on the desk and the guy next to me was like "Wow what's that reaction?" ... which just finished me.

I have absolutely no words for the irresponsibilities that this company drags along with itself without even knowing why or how they matter in the slightest. If they go under, I am the first to run. If it wasn't for me being an apprentice and needing a completed apprenticeship in my resumee, I would have quit a long time ago.

Don't do cloud, if you don't know Linux. Windows is not made for that, no matter how hard you force it; no amount of RDP can save you.

If you have to reduce a security policy in some VPN client, then your connection IS NOT secure, and you should upgrade whatever is hindering it (in this case, apparently the "firewall can't handle it"? I call BS - it runs linux, and even a 3.x kernel can do TLS 1.3!).

And, as good as a ticketing system is for tracking work and activity, if you force everyone to ask for approval FOR a new ticket, its more of a hindrance than anything. Since they switched me to asking for a ticket for whatever self-teaching I am doing (Nix, Telegraf, Influx, Grafana - all of it from the bottom no less!), I have felt hindered and way less productive.

Seriously, I am so done.

Hey everyone. My desktop just blew up last night (likely CPU or motherboard).

I'm not asking for donations, but if you'd be willing to spread the word about the open source hardware password managers that I build and sell, it'd really help me out.

https://hax0rbana.org/signet

I am an independent open source software/hardware maintainer and my dream is to be able to earn enough doing that to pay for my food and shelter.

I sell the hardware at just above cost to fund experimenting with new designs (and now, apparently, to save up for desktop computer repairs).

I'm committed to open source hardware/firmware/software and long term support!

#OpenSource #Software #Hardware #Security #infosec #cybersecurity #OpenHardware #GrowNostr

A hardware based password manager? I am actually interested in that - as a "last resort" for managing the most sensitive secrets I have (SSH keys, file encryption passphrases, ...).

That said, do you *have* a donation page? Sats, obvs, but whats with the people with no channel but the will to donate? ^^
