@sambowne I loved your reference to HP Interface Bus (HP-IB) on this week's PSW. Back in the day, I was responsible for supporting all sorts of equipment which used HP-IB, from HP 1000 & 3000 systems, to floppy drives, to tape drives, to disk packs, and even pen plotters.

Thanks for reviving all those memories.

Time is running out! Why haven't you got your tickets yet? This year is going to be delicious!!!

@hpr Calling all infosec practitioners and those with interest.

I need your help to produce an HPR episode with several of us playing (virtually) Backdoors & Breaches. For any who do not know, B&B is an incident response card game produced by Black Hills Information Security. It is a good tool for tabletop exercises, or just for fun.

Are you interested in being part of this episode? Message me!

My neighbors probably thought that I was crazy or injured, laying in the grass. But I got the shot.

Random photography:

I’m infuriatingly slow and low-output. I usually plan the photo I’m going to take before I set out, sometimes over multiple visits and using online photos of the location. My camera bag is a wheeled pelican case. I almost never shoot without a tripod. I fuss with the exact perspective, camera, and tripod settings for a long time, and then I fiddle around (mostly with contrast and cropping) in post.

I work on the street, but am not a street photographer.

It turns out you can simply serve a file from a domain to use it as your bsky handle.

So this guy is now S3. All of S3.
