so, anyone have a recommendation for a place that has a decent tool to build a photo album? Google photo's interface is terrible, and I hate giving Google money.

Is shutterfly any good?

keefer,

@nuintari Mpix is what a lot of professional photographers use. I used it for my wedding photos and it turned out great.

Assuming you’re talking about a physical photo album.

Has CCleaner by Piriform become malware? I haven’t used Piriform apps myself for years, but today I did a tech support call for a business where the CCleaner window popped up without them requesting it, and they couldn’t get it to close. I could only stop it via Task Manager, and then I uninstalled it.

keefer,

@fifonetworks BleachBit is a good alternative if your clients need something similar.

    Philadelphia Inquirer Building (Vacated), Philadelphia, 2017.

    Built in 1924, the Inquirer Building housed the newspaper until 2012. In 2018, it was leased to the city for use as its new police headquarters.

    @mattblaze interesting perspective! I love how the building appears to have no right angles.

    Newb question:

    Are there any best practices or recommendations around when you would re-use an event id for a feed, vs having a new event id for each time the feed updates?

    The CSV and Freetext feed types allow you to specify a Fixed Event. Is this the default / recommended behavior?

    keefer,

    There's a SANS threat research feed that's updated daily.

    https://isc.sans.edu/api/threatcategory/research?json

    If I wanted to parse this into a CSV and upload it daily via feeds, would it make more sense to re-use the event id? If I didn't, it's likely that I would be seeing duplicate ip addresses/attributes which are in the different dates of the same feed.

    However if I reuse the same event, wouldn't I run into the issue of potentially having thousands of attributes attached to one event id? Would this affect performance?

    keefer,

    @dlewen appreciate the response!

    I'm going through this training video now and they basically recommend the same thing. They say to only use "new events" when you need to see historical changes, and it can result in a lot of data duplication.

    paco, to Mac

    What do people use for on ? I am currently using Vuze, but it's so super spammy. The only reason I manage to use it without it installing all sorts of spammy features is that they all appear to be blocked by my pi-hole. Nothing seems that great.

    keefer,

    @paco I don’t use Mac personally, but it looks like qBittorrent has support for MacOS. It’s in my top 2 of favorite BitTorrent clients.

    I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the people taking your mandatory security awareness training don’t need to know all the made-up names for tricking people.
    When getting scammed, no one needs to know “this is vishing” or smishing or squishing or whatever 🙄

    Over the weekend I passed the GIAC Web Application Penetration Tester (GWAPT) cert from . It was my first SANS class and was a very cool experience :blobsmile:​

    In hindsight I would have made some changes to how I organized my index, to make it more "index-y". I had a lot of summarization / descriptions for broad topics in my notes, not as much "find this keyword on this page".

    I have a practice test that expires on Nov 27th if anyone is interested. Shoot my a DM with your SANS email or account ID and I'll send it over.

    I believe I've seen people use generative AI to create art from a prompt. I think I've seen it on Twatter, are there accounts here on Mastodon to do it?

    For an upcoming little thing, I'd like to generate a statue of liberty face but looking chagrined or surprised or something like that.

    Anyone know of an account or a site or anything which can do this easily? (I think I've seen @adamshostack use an engine like this?)

    I spent a lot of the weekend learning about GraphQL and working on the new labs from PortSwigger Web Academy.

    Totally forgot about their labs, they have a ton of content!

    https://portswigger.net/web-security/graphql

    keefer, (edited )

    The last lab requires you to use a CSRF vulnerability to change a user's email address.

    I spent waaaaayyy too long troubleshooting my payload before realizing the email address I was trying to change it to (test@test.com) must have already been the victim's email address.

    I finally tried a different email address and it worked 🤦‍♂️​

Went in to buy dual wheel marking gauge. easy ... right? well, first mistake was both me and LOML decided to go in together. then as soon as we walked in, wife found a book on houseplants, I found out that they had a set of bessey uni-klamps on in-store special ( 2 x 12" + 2 x 24" for $108 ). how could I pass that up? so grab two sets of those...and there were couple other in-store specials between those and cashier... and now my hobby budget for next 5 months is done for :(

    Hi everyone, I came from the blue bird site in the previous wave, but went back until now.

    I'm a sysadmin wanting to get into infosec, interested in offensive security and hardware hacking.

    I like reading and playing guitar, mainly rock and metal.

    keefer,

    @joacomi welcome! I’m trying to get into offensive security too
