For various reasons, I'm going to switch to another mastodon account I set up a while ago.
I don't think this will result in any spam to followers, but if it does, oops!

@briankrebs that interisle report strikes me as a bit lazy in their categorisation. Other than a very loose correlation of dates, grouping TLDs delegated after 2012 serves no purpose in 2024. Most gTLD contracts are now consistent, with a few notable exceptions, meaning there is no unique loop hole or advantage for those TLDs.

It would be more effective to aggressively enforce already present obligations in Registry Agreements. ICANN's feather duster doesnt scare anyone 🤷‍♂️

@briankrebs which jurisdictions regulation are you referring to? ICANN’s policies haven’t been approved by the ntia since 2016 and do you really want that to return? ICANN the org doesn’t make much money but the hangers on in the community do. The community voted for it because the only ppl that participate in internet governance are those being paid to do so.

Root-less accounts are finally live. It isnt a good day to be a PAM vendor, but for customers this is welcome news.

Centrally managing root access for customers using AWS Organizations | Amazon Web Services

Eliminate long-term root credentials, perform privileged tasks via short-lived sessions, and centrally manage root access - aligning with security best practices.

Technically not wrong…
@hacks4pancakes well wishing you luck and good news soon.

@hacks4pancakes the fantastically well oiled machine that is Australian bureaucracy. Work visas always take a long time. Altho there’s little milestones along the way.

It’s def tough not just hitting reload on the application site all day. I tried to distract myself by focusing on the most boring aspects of moving. Will you take any pets? There’s plenty distractions in that prep.

it’s now at least 22 exams that have had leaked Qs.

You learn a lot about a place from the way they handle yr end exams. Many middle east countries block internet traffic to stop cheating. A cynic might suggest this is also practice for communication suppression.

In Victoria we add Battlemechs into history exams. Because yolo

VCE scores changed over Battle Tech Marauder confusion

One hundred and thirty confused VCE history students had their scores adjusted after an artwork featuring a mysterious robot who appeared to be assisting socialist revolutionaries in 1917 was accidentally used in last year's exam.

#AWS just dropped RCPs for orgs. These plug a hole that most ppl assumed was already covered by SCPs. Too often you have to decipher aws-speak to truly understand what you do and don’t get with their features. Or you find out when someone gives overly generous access to a resource and the guardrails you thought existed, don’t work.

Anyhoo, yay for RCPs.
