As every year, 2025 was a dumpster fire of data breaches, disruptive cyberattacks, and damaging hacks.

Here's our annual look back at the worst cybersecurity incidents of the year.

I fear of the world, where leadership replaces knowledge and experienced based information from their SMEs; with what ChatGPT tells them - And act as an authority on the content.

They already wanted short quips to make their decisions, now the computer is the sycophant.

This scares me.

I'm usually not a very anxious person...
But walking by a washing machine that's kicked off it's spin cycle... usually gets to me. lol

Always fun to be sharing a table with @shehackspurple.bsky.social and listen to some good talks at #Sector2025

Looking forward to your talk! :)

Wow; who knew setting an old Mac would so difficult..

Thankfully; this article was able to help figure out why I couldn't get the AppStore to authenticate. What a dumb dumb system.

Always fun to get back into MechWarrior 5 Mercs - The new DLC was pretty good. Nice to see some cinematics and new voice acting thrown into the game.

But as always, I just end up spending way to much time in the mech hangar, and looking at the mech models. lol

If you're a BattleTech/Mechwarrior fan; the Hired Steel series is seriously so good, and well worth the watch.

We should really be listening to this man; because the way we're going... Well; I'm not sure there's a coming back.

Heck yeah! *Pew pew pew*

I swear; there are fewer nerve wracking things than standing next to a washing machine, starting to spin up on a load that you're pretty sure is unbalanced...
And just standing there; waiting for it to go into pure chaos mode.

I saw someone refer to "Hooters" as being the American equivalent to a Japanese "Maid Cafe"...
That's legitimately made me reevaluate a lot of things. lol

On this day in 2017, the WannaCry ransomware outbreak began.

Subaru Is Bringing Back Physical Knobs and Buttons in Its Cars To the relief of many, Japanese carmaker Subaru has brought back physical buttons and knobs for its 2026 Outback midsize SUV

Glad to see chonky buttons make a return... Especially for things like HVAC controls.

O.O

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Comrade Sisko (@Pinko69420 ), accompanied by two fist bump emojis. The tweet includes a photo of a person sitting in a car, wearing a gray Bass Pro Shops cap and glasses. Overlaid on the image is white text that reads: "Let's start with a 200% tariff on podcast equipment for straight men." The background outside the car window shows a clear sky, power lines, and some buildings.

Guys really do love to hear themselves talk, huh.

Random new pet peeve:
People who stare into their cell phones in elevators; and don't pay attention to when they need to step out.

You're in a metal box; you've got no reception - How about you put your phone in your pocket, and wait the 20 seconds until you're out of the elevator to go back it?

Always fun to be doing some security training, and see them reference @swiftonsecurity.com 's SysMon configs. ;)

Hey! If it works; then it clearly wasn't a bad solution! :P

YouTube video by Comedy Hits Whose Line is it Anyway? UK | Stephen Fry, Josie Lawrence, Peter Cook and John Sessions | S1E3

I've been a fan of Whose Line for years and year; but I do NOT remember this classic UK episode. I thought I had seen them all.
Plus; a young Stephen Fry!

I upgraded last night; and it took me a bit to get back up and going.
I feel your pain.

That moment where you turn on a computer; which has been off for years...
and you see the Cortana button still in Windows 10.

Time to update this sucker! :P

I would not be shocked.
