Got an author copy of the “Distant Early Warning Systems” book by the Anchorage Museum that I contributed a chapter on Tempest and similar spying technology to.

Happy first birthday Nala. Never has there been a more lovely huge lump of stubborn dogness.

It’s #infosec #DogsOfMastodon time. Here’s Nala having a hug. Also known as get off the sofa or I will legit suffocate you.

She is *still* just nine months old. Send help. And food. Lots of food.

I’m still alive, just quiet as I recover from knee replacement surgery at the end of March. Have developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) which is no fun, nor is withdrawal from OxyContin which they had me in for five weeks until the CRPS diagnosis meant a change to neuropathic meds.

Next week the ‘very aggressive physio’ begins, which looks quite brutal - using a computer controlled machine to force knee flexion and break up scar tissue.

Here’s a photo of Nala, now 35kg at 8 months and starting her first season, bless her. She’s looking after me - so much unconditional love, so much caring from someone so young.

The DNA results are in, and to our surprise Nala has neither Ridgeback nor Labrador heritage.

She’s Bullmastiff and German Shepherd.

Which explains her large size for a pup!

I think she’s tired…

The results of the DNA testing (Embark Breed & Health) should be here within the next two or three weeks. My thinking on Nala has shifted from Ridgeback cross to Mastador, the more we’ve got to know her over this three weeks. Can’t wait to find out, will probably be something bizarre like a Great Dane/Dachshund cross 🤣

Mystery solved. #Nala is a Ridgeback/Great White Shark cross. Sorted.
