I'm here for good vibes and new and interesting perspectives on business and technology, especially with security themes.

### Profile image ChatGPT 4o prompt

Please draw a line drawing of an embodied but hollow business suit with no head lying relaxed atop a giant single puffed grain of rice. Use only a black pen in white background, no shading. There must be a horizon line near the top of the image for perspective but no other objects.

### Profile background ChatGPT 4o prompt

Please show an extra wide ratio landscape of pure dusty sand with the horizon out of the shot so the image is all sand, no sky. Do it in an abstract jarring style with sharp angles and make the image grainy, and block shapes representing dunes and rocks.

Adhere to CI=true environment variable to hide #curl's progress bar?

Adhere to CI=true environment variable to hide progress bar · curl curl · Discussion #17838

There is a de facto environment variable CI=true that is enabled on CI platforms like GitHub, GitLab and Jenkins. Tools such as pip and yarn listen to this and make their output less chatty. In man...

Good morning
i still think this is the funniest block reason my school has ever set

Dear autistic family who share your autistic selves,

We are building an understanding of ourselves that gives us back the humanity that popular culture and psychology tried to steal.

I love you all for that, even though irl I know our sensory differences might make it a challenge to exist in the same place.

Shit is too hard, but you all really help.

Thank you everyone for your support and kind replies. Your kindness has made my day much better and I am incredibly grateful for it. This is why I feel at home here, despite the occasional draining troll.

You're the best FediFriends!
I love you all 

Adobe is now processing all your PDFs in the cloud, by default. The setting to “Enable generative AI features in Acrobat” was on, and I didn’t know it until I opened a document and Adobe asked me if I wanted a document summary. It’s annoying to have to click “No,” so I opened settings to disable the prompt.

THE PROBLEM
I sign Non-Disclosure Agreements for many of my clients. Adobe is a potential leak of protected information. I don’t know what Adobe does with this information. I don’t know what they store, or for how long. I don’t know what country (or countries) the data is stored in. I don’t know what LLMs are trained with this data. And I don’t need to know. What I need to know is that they won’t use default opt-in as a legal excuse to wiretap my information.

I recommend that you check your Adobe settings on all devices, for all Adobe accounts.

It's always fun finding interesting to see things in the OpenBSD ports tree using pledge(2) and/or unveil(2), some adopted upstream others via local patches.

For example, the server-side part of Anubis, that AI scraper bot protection thing that keeps popping up everywhere recently (you know the one with the anime fox person) uses a fairly tight unveil(2) on OpenBSD, with limited read/write access and no execv(2) permission.

minidlna, for home media streaming, uses pledge(2) & unveil(2) in -current to restrict the service to the bare minimum filesystem access required for it to function, and no more.

More seatbelts. 

A few people have messaged me about the EU's working group on encryption and law enforcement, and whether I'd consider applying.

Yes, this is up my street, but my tank is running rather dry at the moment for additional (especially unpaid governmental) work so, even if I were eligible, this is not one for me, I'm afraid.
