"It's a machine that can put a stop to unruly peasants. Simply order your men-at-arms to load a few of your most unruly peasants into the sling, release, and if your men have aimed it right, you can fertilise your fields from a quarter of a mile away.
Your surviving peasants are guaranteed to be ruly for years to come."

- Baron Twattling, murdered by his own peasants in the Year of the Half-Arsed Wombat.

The career fair was very fast! I didn’t realize it was middle schoolers not high schoolers so the questions and comments were pretty funny… top questions:
1. What’s the biggest cyber attack you had to fix yourself
2. How can I tell if my free download has a virus in it
3. Did you ever use packets to crash a server at your job?

Other notable comments:
“What even is cybersecurity” (great question)
“Wait… you can build your own computer anytime you want?!” (Well not ANY time I want…)
“You look too young” (…for what?)

It was fun, I laughed quite a bit, and I got a free mug and a cupcake 😆🤷🏻‍♀️

Time to hopefully inspire some kids to get into Cybersecurity! 👏🏼
Friday I will be hosting a cybersecurity information booth at a career fair for the high schoolers at my daughters school. List your favorite resources for kids who are just starting to think about a career in cybersecurity! Thanks 😊
Microsoft accidentally swapped Windows 11’s startup sound with Vista’s

Microsoft has mistakenly replaced its Windows 11 boot sound with the chime from Vista. It’s a bug that will be fixed in the latest preview builds of the OS.

The Verge
What makes Windows 11 so much better is that instead of using 1's and 0's, Windows 11 only uses 1's.
I couldn't be there in person so I made art instead.

Today I walked by some protestors waving both Korean and American flags and shouting angrily through a megaphone. There were "CCP Out!" signs posted on their vans.

Super curious, I looked it up, only to find that they are maga-ing it with the American flags in support of pres. Yoon, who was impeached quickly for declaring martial law.

I felt really embarrassed they were using the American flag this way, and I'm super glad they did not notice my American ass slinking by them and hurrying away down the sidewalk.

My ten year old just told me and my husband she hates us. First time she has said it, but just the other day I told him I felt it coming on.

In case you are asking why… it’s because we won’t buy her a wig for cosplay for the school “dress up day” that was sprung on us this week and is in just a few days.

How old was your child when they first told you “I hate you”? Or have they? I never told my parents that out loud - I only wrote it in my diary 🥲
