I use proton pass currently.

My life is changing in less than two weeks.

I have an enterprise grade server that I can’t run for a variety of home reasons.

When me and the wife… for lack of a better term, escape, our situation, I’ll be able to self host. I know its gonna be a struggle, I have things to learn, and that is why I’m so excited.

Oh fuck me, I’m still studying to red team basic computing.

I take it you’ve never had to log into a printer with an AD account before?

Yeah, I went out to 32 characters once. Until I needed to work on a printer.

I’ve lived in Texas as long as I can remember, but I was born in California.

Spanish finds it’s way into my everyday speech constantly.

My family is white as fuck, but my mother became fluent in college.

I took Spanish in high school for my foreign language credits.

While I’m not fluent, I’ve worked closely with people who primarily speak Spanish with a little broken English.

The little bit of Spanish I recall, and the little bit of English they know, allowed us to work together.

Is that irritating?

We live in troubled times, the planet is overheating at a rate that it might affect my life more than being more uncomfortable in the summer. And that’s Texas summers at that.

There is an island of plastic refuse in the ocean bigger than some countries.

I saw the home computer come to the living room and the internet be birthed.

If you were to ask if I was jaded as a kid, already? Yeah. Around 7 years old.

It isn’t getting better. Corporations claw for more and more at the expense of the people and the planet.

I hope the younger generations can lead the charge of change, but for me… I don’t have the time or energy to play games most days, let alone change the planet.

And for those who will say, “Aren’t you just part of the problem then?” Sadly yes, I am. I try to make changes when I can, but I fear changing the small environment of my home will not be enough.

I had attempted a back flip off a kicker ramp propped up on the curb (into grass, it was to learn how, lol)

Anyway, I go UP, flip and land halfway over with my head contacting the curb.

It gave me a concussion, and took a chunk out of my helmet. I would have been dead most likely if I didn’t wear a helmet.

I just dragged the ramp in, and went to lay down with my skates still on. I don’t remember much after that.

I don’t recognize this, but it looks like the dude is “working” something shady.

I wouldn’t wanna risk being stuck in a bathroom because I ate something local and don’t have the antibodies to deal with it.

McDs is processed crap, shipped globally, with local favorites mostly avoidable. Its a safe bet. Plus, you can eat once and have your 2000 calories met for the day in 10 minutes.

Work has been difficult, mostly due to coworkers lately.

If I’m blaring Rage, like I have all week, I’m ready to walk or to burn the place down. But I’m a lazy man.

Longest it took…

I was in a “study hall” type class in fourth grade. The teacher ran out of material after a couple weeks. So she decided to read The Hobbit out loud to the class while we worked on homework, other quiet activities, or slept. Really, don’t give her problems, won’t be problems.

I had already started The Hobbit on my own. At the time it was considered college level reading, so not too shabby. So, I continued reading (first time on The Hobbit) and finished WAY before the rest of the class listened. Because duh, a quick mental reader VS a teacher doing voices? No shit, Sherlock.

A girl who sat next to me (assigned seating) brushed the hair out of her eyes, blinked expressively a few times with direct eye contact, and said I must be “one of those cool nerds;” I suppose because I finished before Bilbo left the Shire.

It took me until college to realize. I vaguely remember considering her “kinda cute.” I could have, and in the future sure did, worse.

Or I mean, Shodan exists. I’m sure the gov has better.

A theoretical botnet I was looking at on github used shodan to identify possible targets to infect.
