We are deeply saddened by the passing of David Harley, a brilliant cybersecurity expert, former ESET Senior Research Fellow, author and long-time Virus Bulletin contributor.

David's legacy spans decades of research, writing, and public speaking, always with a focus on making the internet safer for all. He was also a passionate musician and a kind, generous soul.

Rest in peace, David. You will be missed. 💙

Someone put this "blue plaque" on a London Tesla showroom to mark his becoming the world's first trillionaire. “World’s first trillionaire Elon Musk. Could have solved world hunger but funded fascists instead. Bellend.” https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/everyone-hates-elon-protest-tesla-dealership-london-400042/

It's Friday! Woo hoo!

But it's not just any Friday - today is a particularly sheepy Friday - and you know what the Friday dancers say on such a Friday?

They say BAAAAAAAAA 🐑

Have a good weekend all, if you possibly can 😁

OH: "You're in his DMs. I'm in his VMs. We're not the same."

It is my third fediversary!

Strictly speaking I joined April 2022, but I floundered to start with & it was only when we decided to start things.uk that I consider myself to have properly joined.

Anyhow. Here are three Friend tooters & a honking Humph in celebration.

Thank you for your company over the last three years. Been a pleasure

#sillyScribbles #fediversary #toot #honk #nonsense

Aww, you're all being so lovely, thank you

It's genuinely been a huge boost (hah) to me being here. You've all helped me find my silly again & I hugely appreciate that.

(And you still get angry about the right things too 😁 )

Sweet dreams all 💤

Would you visit the US in it's current state? Either for vacation or travel. For Americans, imagine you would visit your country from somewhere else

As promised, here's a camera using my 3-lens M12 turret mount and a Raspberry Pi Zero. It comes with a not very efficient Python camera script, I am sure others could do better. Video on its way.

So I have a big open atrium above my front door and this is my current idea of what to do with it

Still laughing hours after I read this. So true so true
