saw this pop up in my feed. https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1wm5c21/i_am_done_with_this_shit/ and the top comment from the clanker moderator bot is fucking brutal "Yes, you're a meat proxy, deal with it."

STOP SCREAMING IM SCARED TOO.

can't breach me, if you don't have disk space.

so, my wife is in the market for a new car. She wants something nice for her 40th, as her Ford flex is starting to develop an array of problems. We test drove a volvo, and honestly? I can't believe I slept on them. Currently considering an XC90 PHEV. It sounds weird to be talking about buying a luxury SUV, when I was just asking for donations for her first-grade classroom like a month ago. Of course, if this paints a different picture of us, I can't blame you, and I'm sorry if I did anything to offend you. Just to re-iterate, We contribute a large amount of our money to that classroom, and as always, I'm extremely thankful for the help we got in helping her first graders. and if we get this thing, its for her, and the work she has put in for over a decade now in the public school system.

Are turnips really comparable to potatoes? I've never had them before. But they're being recommended as an alternative to baked potatoes.

the internet is a wonderful place. switch to incendiary rounds, today is a special occasion

The world was a better place when AI was limited in scope. Like, The most AI was doing pre 2020s was beating the shit out of chess grand masters, and letting niche game nerds do Tool-Assisted Speedruns as an entire subcategory of speedrunning. There might be more than that, but those are the most public examples I'm aware of. It showed us that focused datasets could do some crazy things. Then the wrong people got involved and said "What if I just feed everything it and market it as a replacement for labor entirely?" and now, we're in this fucking mess where it produces slop, and in spite of everyone else who is a professional pointing out how shit its output is, anyone looking to make a buck off of it thinks its wildly successful because as always, they don't have to deal with the fallout, care, or maintenance of whatever the bullshit generator spit out.

AI in a nutshell

"the minimum requirements for Windows 11 are 4GB of RAM, a 64-bit dual-core CPU and 64GB of space" If modern developers were forced to development for minimum spec hardware, bet that software would not be so dogshit these days.

enjoy your 20MB go binaries, and 500GB game updates.

this is the third base I've built in this playthrough. Kind of a shitshow right now compared to my first one, but we're managing. This map tile is lovely. I can use tidal power generators, there's four easy to access geothermal vents, and only a few avenues of entry on the east and west sides of the map, so establishing killzones is quite easy. I wasn't sure if I would have to give up this base after getting the third part of the archonexus map, so I kinda didn't really care about long-term viability. But... the archonexus point showed up on the map, and I'm going to have to caravan to it.

@munin@infosec.exchange I've long since given up on job satisfaction here. I've become very mercenary. "Pay me, so I can make my own satisfaction outside of this shitshow."

finally, the end is in sight.

@soatok@furry.engineer I know to treat the furries well because they're everywhere you least expect them to be. also the furry erotic art is kinda good

@munin@infosec.exchange that is a rarity these days. every new job offer wants to shove AI into every fucking orifice there is to shove it into. Just once I would like to point out "You do realize this dogshit software has resulted in the bombing of a school by the US military, very nearly started world war 3 with the Chinese, and consistently makes things up, right? And you're choosing to embrace it, and invite it into your home like the vampire it is."

I think what I might do is install PolarProxy in Transparent Forwarding mode and point readers to the guide for doing so over here: https://www.netresec.com/?page=Blog&month=2020-01&post=Sniffing-Decrypted-TLS-Traffic-with-Security-Onion and just adapt it to the lab instructions I gave them for SSLProxy. I'm more interested in doing a full-tutorial in setting up PolarProxy in HTTP Proxy mode, and show how to feed Suricata that data, as an alternate lab setup.

really glad I was able to get to the bottom of the SSLProxy setup stuff. Making a lot of meaningful headway in the Suricata book.

If the weather continues to be nice when the waifu gets home, I'm goin for a walk around the neighborhood.

@soatok@furry.engineer "I'm sorry but you don't have an hackernews account, so legally speaking, you're not human in my eyes."

@soatok@furry.engineer I love seeing the commissioned art pieces you have on your blog posts. Legitimately great artists in the furry community.

everything seems to be mostly working now I can see all the requests and the responses just fine.

One thing that is driving up the fucking wall is how CNAs for cve.org just kinda arbitrarily hand out CVEs. Tenda/Totolink: This is the exact same vuln across multiple devices, all using the same base firmware. Better produce a CVE number for every fucking single one of them D-Link: This is a vulnerability affecting FOUR different subsystems invoked by this single CGI file, with 5 different vulnerable parameters. A single CVE number will do.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social oh my god, this is like nikto level shit.

@gsuberland@chaos.social yeah on closer inspection, I'm realizing that its not actually better armor pen, but the added explosive damage is VERY good. I've noticed with all of the AP-HE rounds I used on base assaults on my first base, that it would be quite easy to blow off a limb, or in the case of automatroid raids, blow off armor plates, limbs, sensors, etc.

and this is the rifle I was talking about.

@gsuberland@chaos.social oh yeah. Towards the end of my first base, I was doing uranium armored walls. 2,000HP per square. and the automated base defenses would shred it like paper.

WHO IS SANDY LOAM AND WHY CANT I REACH HER

if you're doing this at home, the most important thing I can tell you is: If you want to do this, look at both encrypted and unencrypted streams, you CANNOT capture both on the same interface. SSLProxy changes network traffic when it decrypts it, changes sequence and ACK numbers, etc. so Suricata will get confused with it gets the encrypted stream of data, along with the unencrypted stream of data on the same interface.

@jpm@aus.social I found the github repo, but couldn't find a release that has a compiled binary already, and I'm not installing that garbage on my machine.

Almost ready to have my five superhumans disembark for the archonexus questline. #rimworld

okay, yeah. we need to make more of those super suits.

@tw000@infosec.exchange I'll have to keep this in mind. Originally we were considering one with an air suspension for better performance in the winter possibly. Salesperson was upfront with us. "If you plan on keeping this car, you don't want to do that. Most cars that have those air suspensions, the compressor fails within 4 years or less than 40k miles." I appreciated the honesty, at least.

@hugovalters@mastodon.social hi, many of the vulns you have listed are "prior to version 8.0.7". 8.0.7 was released on september 15th. maybe some reassessment is necessary on your trust ratings? https://suricata.io/2026/09/15/suricata-8-0-7-released/

@0x00string@infosec.exchange @cnlohr@chaos.social kinda want it, even though I really don't need it

have to revert the SSLProxy installation again, go through the install instructions again, and test the fork of Autosuricata I've made for it.

...and this is why I want AP-HE. All of the damage of the FMJ rounds, but also with explosive damage, and better armor pen.

its always funny to watch them mill about the base after becoming super-humans because they're just running around everywhere at mach speed.

@0x00string@infosec.exchange @cnlohr@chaos.social there's just something about seeing a well-engineered thing

@nuintari@mastodon.bsd.cafe I gave him a pretty nose, because the armorskin gland makes him ugly.
