@hackdefendr Pardon my ignorance but isn't log file analysis a perfect use case for one of these new-fangled generative AI instances? Even better, couldn't it be trained on all of the old log files in an enterprise so it was well tuned to the system?

@pluralistic A logical evolution from MarComm AI

The internet is increasingly full of garbage, much of it written by other confident habitual liar chatbots, which are extruding plausible sentences at vast scale. Future confident habitual liar chatbots will be trained on the output of these confident liar chatbots, producing #JathanSadowski's #HabsburgAI:

But the declining quality of Google Search isn't merely a function of chatbot overload. For many years, Google's local business listings have been *terrible*.

@LikeItOrLumpIt So you just want to keep your motor revving?

@KimPerales I am just hoping that Jack Smith finds the courage to include RICO charges against all of the Congressman and Senators who actively engaged in the conspiracy with Trump.

Trump's Florida indictment should be required reading. It does a good job of juxtaposing two things:

1) The former president stored hundreds of highly sensitive classified documents in bathrooms, closets and other places that weren't exactly secured. The documents included boring stuff like defense and weapons capabilities of the US and allies; potential vulnerabilities of the US to attack; and plans for possible retaliation in response to a foreign attack. Worse still, in the wrong hands these documents can expose and endanger human sources.

2) In addition to the 150 full-time, part-time and temporary employees at Mar-a-Lago, between January 2021 and August 2022, the Mar-a-Lago Club hosted more than 150 social events, including weddings, movie premieres, and fundraisers that together drew *tens of thousands of guests*.

"Oh, I was just looking for the bathroom...."

@lowqualityfacts Abso-fucking-lutely not.

I don't mind having 3 different USB cables with different connectors, but I wish the EU would standardize the power tools' batteries. They occupy so much more room, are heavier, and require charging.

Ok - https://matrix.infosec.exchange is alive! It requires an account on the mastodon instance at infosec.exchange. If there's a demand, I'll open general registrations

Please put a content warning on phone screenshots with less than 20% battery life, that really stresses me out. 😉

@sonictyrant Y2K was a mostly mitigated disaster.

@sethcotlar What if they are doing the bidding of Putin and the CCP?

@peterbutler @funnymonkey We will be bailing as fast as possible even if it doesn't sink all of us.

@NAB I wonder how well this would work on Quora and/or Stack Overflow.

@annaleen but how else can they deliver super powers for their paymasters... or bring about the apocalypse? Or be the hero and get laid?

@m @wendynather @erik @davidgerard I was maybe 8-9 years old at the time so I don't know if he got beyond the handshake and whistled the actual password.

@erik @wendynather @davidgerard It must have been all of maybe 110 baud.

@wendynather @erik @davidgerard in the 1970s, my father used to work for the National Bureau of Standards and would take home a hard copy terminal with an acoustic coupler. His "neat trick" was that he could dial in and successfully login by whistling.

@fifilamoura Thanks from all of the CIS gendered straight men who appreciate progress.

@fifilamoura Great message. It’s super important to remember how far we have come in just the past few decades

Sometimes that gets lost among all the current threats and dangers (which are very real)

Agree we still need to fight hard, but also good to remember how much better it is today than 1980s. Let’s celebrate that 🎉
