I may be the most certified person you’ve ever met. Years of IT experience in network management and security. Recently retired from the military. Interested in using creative channels, like games, to teach cyber risk to risk owners.

Cat picture booster. Multi-craftual. Unashamed public knitter.

Someone who passes a nontrivial proportion of their work thru an LLM is acting as a meat API and can be meaningfully automated away.

Sometimes it needs to be presented just like this.

(From a report submitted by the Victoria Police (AU) to the Commonwealth Parliamentary Joint Committee Inquiry into law enforcement's capability to respond to cybercrime.)

Friends, take this PSA: don’t push your body past its limit. If you’re sick, find ways to get rest or moments of self-appreciation. You can do permanent damage by pushing past pain.

Currently fighting someone as stubborn as me into not permanently destroying their body.

Part of what I'm sayin here is that men should be aggressively in favour of feminism if they wanna see more butts.

No matter the language you speak, your nationality, colour or creed, regardless of how you express your gender or whom you love,

I want you to know

I don't want to download your fucking app 💚

That is clearly not my chair any more.

It belongs, very emphatically, to @Menhit

New: A judge refuses to throw out the FTC's repair monopoly lawsuit against John Deere. Means two major antitrust suits over its repair practices are going to trial, which is a big deal:

John Deere Must Face FTC Lawsuit Over Its Tractor Repair Monopoly, Judge Rules

Deere now must face two different major lawsuits over the repairability of its tractors.

My pub has a stronger CoC than a lot of mastodon instances.
@basil no fosters! But....

@daj

@basil

It's the pub's rules so nothing to discuss.

I don't wanna raise a war here: However ... Tried Fosters decades ago in Germany and it was actually quite OK. Maybe because it was a camouflaged #HoPiHaLiDo (if unsure type it into German Wikipedia 😁 )

@basil you can’t beat a strong CoC and a pint of anything that isn’t Fosters.
@basil
I like the Beastie Boys reference 😊
@basil No Fosters. Amen.
@basil no sleep till Brooklyn is a nice touch <3
@basil What’s with the “no pink gin”?

@mahryekuh If I recall it started life as an FAQ:
- We don't stock pink gin
- We don't have fosters
- We don't accept American Express

Then snowballed one day into a CoC / FAQ hybrid.

@basil I like the sign, but I have some questions.

Why no pink gun and no fosters. I don't understand why those are on the list.

What does no sleep till brooklyn mean?

@culper @basil Frees up cellar space for non-piss. No Sleep til Brooklyn is Beastie Boys.
@basil I would drink there.
@Chigaze I'm going there right now.
@basil While my local doesn't have a sign like that I know they would approve all those items. :)
@basil
They had me at “15% off on takeouts”. 😉
@basil absolutely NO FOSTER'S on MY instance!!
@basil nothing about #disability or #ableism? That's sad 😢

@basil

Dammit. Now I have the Beasties stuck in my brain.

@basil

Kerry King in the last one ..🤘😎🤘🎸

@basil ...or any of the rest of 'em!

I like this, and think I'd like to drink there.

@basil The "No Fosters" is something we can all get behind. ;)
@basil
Trent House?
@simon Free Trade Inn
@basil @simon
Drink beer
Smoke tabs
🍻
@basil
I knew it was one or the other, haven't been there for years.
@basil  whats up with that pink gin rule?
@basil the last point is my favourite one!
@basil every mastodon instance should have 15% off on takeouts c:
@maya @basil ‘Makeouts’ is spelt with an m.
@melivia @basil dw those are free <3
@basil No fashion police, but the gin police are welcome.
@basil I guess that pub doesn't have a pornography problem, unlike some Mastodon instances, as it's not on the list 😂
@basil it's also much more to the point
@basil they should offer 15% off for trans people
@basil honestly tempted to just steal this picture for ifwhenever i roll my own instance
@basil love the beastie boys shoutout at the end   
@basil @gazebo_c I'm a wee bit upset about the "no pink gin" rule 
@sashag I was also wondering but I know too little about Gin at all that I could form an opinion ☺️
@basil

@gazebo_c @sashag
So, the board was originally just a simple FAQ.

The bar was asked several times a day for pink gin, and they don't stock any. So they made the sign:
We don't have pink gin
We don't have fosters.
We don't accept American express.

A few months later they added the CoC stuff up top, and I suspect they changed it to the "No X" pattern just so they could hit the Beastie Boys reference at the end.

@basil Now I want to give them as much business as possible 😄
@basil Now all I can think about is pink gin. I have never had pink gin, the product nor the cocktail. This might have to change.
@basil no Fosters 🤣🤣
