Draw me like one of your anime girls

Happy Monday all! Here's a painting of the Norse gods Odin and Heimdall racing each other among the branches of Yggdrasil, the World tree. Odin on Sleipner and Heimdall on Gulltopp, with Odin's two ravens Hugin and Munin trailing behind

Very nice 72 km ride today! It was through small villages, cities, forests and fields.

This time on the Moulton TSR bicycle.

Are you in a band? Do you want to play in Ellijay Georgia on May 14th or June 24th?

Or another time?

What about non-band things? Maybe you actually want to come and do standup, or juggle live sharks?

Hit me up.

As much as I'm enjoying the music on #Revolution935 tonight (Detox & Hexagon Radio), it's time for me to go to bed. So, I bid thee a #goodnight and #tzaf. Until the morn! ​

I see the meta about me is flying through the ether again.

Allow me to state my position.

I am professionally in infosec. In some roles I have been in, I have had to interact with the authorities. It happens. Happened a few weeks ago in fact, on my terms, and it was something that most assuredly saved lives.

Once I posted a slide here on the fediverse... it was from a presentation I was doing. On it in my credentials it said that I was a proud member of Infragard.

YES, i was a member of infragard... because I was hoping their threat feeds were good, I wanted access to them.

"A proud member of Infragard" is how they require you to say it to maintain access to their feeds.

Their feeds were ok...

I have had nearly no interaction with Infragard (a public private partenership to mitigate threat actors trying to impact critical infrastructure). My interaction with the FBI came down to one case, and I was asked by the defendant to cooperate with them... funny, huh?

If that makes me a fed... wanting access to threatfeeds for research...  I think your definition of "Fed" is overly broad.

On 3/3/19 I was attacked for this piece of information. I linked it back to a particular set of threat actors wanting to stop this community from becoming what it is today. Those old rumors are back.

Let me talk about the good we have done:

We raised over $6000 to benefit Ukrainian needy caught in a warzone.

We organized assets to help Ukraine resist invasion.

We setup tools for people to defend themselves against spying, and be more secure.

We tirelessly work to tear down siloed social media.

We combined forces with other legendary hacker groups to fold proteins to complete research that led to some of the vaccines that have helped contain this pandemic.

We have gotten people their first infosec jobs.

We have made friends, a community, and fought the power at every opportunity.

We are mighty. We punch up... and we do it really fucking well.

And I am not an agent for anyone but myself, and when I get to be, for this community.

We are Hackers.town.
We save the world.

We're getting pretty good at it.

PS: wow, you made it this far?!? All that said... I am not here to change your mind. If your threat model includes me somehow, then you should block hackers.town. You know what you are comfortable with, and it's not up to me to decide that for you.
