@mynacol It seems that almost nobody actually implements the BIMI part without the VMC part? At least not outlook nor gmail, which covers the vast majority of recipients.

BIMI/VMC is such a hilariously grifty attempt by commercial CAs to reclaw at least *some* of the income lost to LetsEncrypt.

Don't do it.

(If you don't know what BIMI is, it's a scheme to show corp logos for emails in your inbox. See:
https://support.google.com/a/answer/10911320?hl=en)

@major it would be a great name for a git forge, though.

@wakame perhaps, but the Witcher universe elf, not Tolkien elf. :)

I don't think Linus would enjoy being transformed into an .exe

I umpired my last game of the 2023 season tonight. Hanging up my gear and the home plate brush until next May. I'll miss it, but I'm glad for the opportunity to heal up my bruises and to reclaim my quiet evenings. :)

well my direct manager has scheduled a meeting with my team later today about a return to office plan, so I guess it's time to make a post again

I've got a few years of DFIR consulting experience at my previous job with a big 4, I have a few years in this role as a CSOC IR Lead at a large (10K+ employees) company, I have my GREM certification, and I'm Canadian and live in Canada and want to continue to work from Canada (just remote). I've got some devops experience with my personal projects (like my twitch bots and this Mastodon instance) and I am not a programmer but I can program in... a few languages (I like Rust a lot, but also Python, and C#, and I'd love to learn Go or Zig or something). I'm also pretty happy to just sit down with Excel and a plaso timeline and scroll through it to find evil.

If you've got any leads or connections to a full time remote-only job in or adjacent to security that could use my skills, please hit me up--my DMs should be open, as should my email (demize[@]unstable.systems, though I'll use a different one in your HR system). Just make sure it's open to Canadians!

Take your Rust skills for a spin -- write a filesystem module.

I won't pretend to be a prude who never stoops down to potty humour (I have 12- and 14- year olds living in this house), but this was a bit too much.

Thanks, packagers.

My interest in bsky is mostly due to my general interest in decentralized platforms and my previous experiments with SSB (secure scuttlebutt), which sadly had some serious implementation flaws. I do not plan migrate anything anywhere or anything like that. :)

@jarkko Well, it's bsky.social that requires an invite, not the underlying AT protocol. In the same way gmail.com required an invite when it was just starting out.

Because the platform is so new and rapidly changing, there aren't very many instances that I'm aware of besides bsky.social itself.

I am now on bsky as @mricon.kernel.social, but mostly as a way to play around with atproto and DID. Thus far, the extent is setting up the necessary bits to have DID work via DNS records (ew).

@django Pretty sure the real answer is "we don't want to make it too easy for people to read about rate increases."

Literally nobody:
less: `Calculating line numbers... (interrupt to abort)`

(Yes, I know about setenv LESS, it's still annoying as heck.)
