re: fitness, weight
@limbic Thanks! Still got a long way to go, as I want to get down to around 75kg, but I'm feeling pretty good about myself :)
fitness, weight
Weight week 4: 120kg
On the nose 120kg is kinda nice! The home made lunches are REALLY making a big impact, and unlike with sandwiches I'm actually going not getting bored of them so long as I change them up every week. I might try doing a sandwich on Friday though!
Last night I happened to glance down at my chest and it didn't look as big as I'd remembered, so pretty happy with the progress!
@tryst I know it's a long trip but I really want to do that over a few days; drive down, take the tunnel, and drive into France a bit
Awooooo!!! Time for werewolf girl dinner. >:3

@Auri Oh and they'll also do this for websites based outside of the UK too.
Like I get why they're doing it but the implementation is just REAL vague and heavy-handed
@Auri so static websites are fine, but if you run something like a forum or a social media website then you've got to do age verification otherwise they'll take you to court if they find stuff that the OSA covers on it, no matter how big your website is.
@Auri ofcom have decided that the Online Safety Act has to be enforced by individual websites but they have been super fucking vague about how they expect to do that.
They're also saying that ALL websites have to do it if they have any ability for users to communicate on them.
So most websites are just planning to geoblock the UK entirely and ofcom's response is "that is acceptable"

Oh man, I have so many stories about the "startup" (Path Network),which the 19-year-old DOGE employee, Edward Coristine previously worked for.
https://www.wired.com/story/edward-coristine-tesla-sexy-path-networks-doge/
My first interaction with the founder, Marshal Webb, was in 2016 when the company was called "BackConnect'. I'd recently posted a research paper on the Mirai botnet, which lead to him harassing me online, simply because he considered himself to be the sole authority on Mirai.
It later turned out, that a lot of his knowledge came from the fact that he was personally hosting the threat actors' infrastructure, therefore had direct insight into the botnet. He tried to play it off as an "intelligence gathering operation". Everyone knew he was really just in bed with the threat actors, but nobody could prove it enough to make a case against him.
At some point shortly after, a DDoS-for-hire service got hacked and its entire customer database along with all DDoS attack logs was leaked online. One of the records traced back to an employee of his DDoS mitigation firm, and from a combination of attack logs and corroboration with customers, it was determined that they had been launching DDoS attacks against businesses, then cold calling them to sell DDoS protection services.
It was fairly apparent from the fact the emails coincided with the DDoS attacks, but did not originate from the the employee performing the attacks that the company was in on it, and this wasn't the work of some rogue employee. Nevertheless, said employee got thrown under the bus, convicted, and was unsuccessful in proving that his employer was in on the conspiracy, although they most certainly were.
Eventually, the founder ended up being named in some kind of criminal complaint or other FBI related court document. The specific wording seemed to imply that he'd gotten caught doing something illegal enough that he'd become an informant to save himself. Amusingly, when the document surfaced, the company just issued a press release about how they were "helping the FBI stop crime" and nothing become of it.
The company has always been shady as hell, and while it's not abnormal for cybersecurity firms to hire reformed hackers, I've not seen a single employee who was not directly involved in cybercrime immediately prior to getting hired. Furthermore, multiple of the employees have been caught committing cybercrime while working for the company.
Originally, when I posted this thread on February 6th, I stopped short of any allegation that Edward himself was involved in cybercrime. Since then @briankrebs was able to trace his aliases back to a known cybercrime organization and confirm he indeed was directly involved in cybercrime as recently as May 2024.
