Goldilocks tried Daddy Peppa Grindr's pepper, but it was too coarse. Then Goldilocks tried Mommy Peppa Grindr's pepper, but it was too fine. So Goldilocks tried Bae Peppa Grindr's pepper and it was Just Right.

And if you've done all that, might as well tear it back to the bare studs, run all new plumbing and electric, and practice your sheetrock skills while you're at it. (I've done this twice, don't recommend, but I'm also out here washing landscape rocks which I said I'd never do again)

Spam loco moco and spam fried rice are okayish. Spam shit on a shingle is sorta edible. Having had all of these before I'm going when spam every time. Just leave the spam jelly in the bottom of the can.

The Security Principle Every Attacker Needs to Follow Earlier this year, I was tasked with developing a follow-on course for our renowned Adversary Tactics: Red Team Operations course. The new…

I'd rather see a physical PAW with a VM, AVD, or Windows 365 instance as the daily driver accessed from the PAW. This maintains a clean source. Most other compromises result in violations of clean source and create attack paths.

More than four out of five Americans, 83%, said they were concerned about the cost of groceries, with 46% saying they were very concerned. Some 47% said they were worried about being able to pay their rent or mortgage, 64% said they were worried about affording an unexpected medical expense.
About 48% said they believed they would have trouble affording an unexpected $500 bill without borrowing. One in four said it would be "very difficult"
A quarter of those surveyed said they spent at least three hours a day worrying about their finances and ability to afford basic necessities. Another 25% of respondents said they or someone in their household had skipped meals in the past year in order to make ends meet, and 26% said they had fallen behind on their monthly bills over the past year.

I don't care for the manosphere or any other form of toxic masculinity.

The men I hang out with are kind, generous, & emotionally intelligent. I wanna be around people that bring out the best in each other. We grow to become better versions of ourselves every day & bring others up with us.

Andy wrote up a fantastic resource for folks looking to get started with OpenGraph.

OpenGraph allows you to map out attack paths in BloodHound for any system, far beyond AD & Azure. You could map attack paths in K8s, mainframes, cloud identity providers, software dependencies, & payment systems.

We live 2+ hours from the closest Costco. Still bought an executive membership based on this (and it not being Target/Amazon). We go less often but it's almost always a 2 cart trip.

At least this would have some seasoning to it?

Have you enjoyed exercising for quite some time or is this a relatively new experience? And if the latter, do ya have any ideas on how you came to enjoy it?

I used to enjoy it, fell out of habit, & having a tough one picking up again.

Sometimes I like to mix it up and throw an "etm." in there because I read it stands for "et merda" and I'm a child.

I feel like social engineering is an expected part of an attack path.

If one user's password is all that stands between the attacker & full compromise it's a house of cards and the shitwinds are blowin'.

For a cream colored short-sleeve button-down linen shirt, what are some appropriate shorts and/or pants styles and colors?

I'm not allowed to wear white (the wedding invitation says so).

A sticker on a yellow street post, probably a crosswalk sign in Wellington, Nz. 

The sticker has a bust relief drawing of André the Giant in the center. To the left the text says "Andre the giant has a posse" On the right it says "7'4" 520LB"
