@brysonbort The minute I referenced AI in my LI profile, the number of random inmail I get from "founders" and "CISOs" who want to help "advance our AI mission" has gone through the roof. Even when I say no, they keep coming back.

@Cthulhu_Answers I've downloaded cars. Bypassing view source blocks is so minor league

[Steve Ragan ⚠️ @SteveD3]

Lord Cthulhu is having fun, but here are some interesting notes:

ctrl+U / cmd+U shows source

alt+TI in FF brings up page info

hold L mouse, hold R mouse, release L, release R. the browser will treat it as a right click, but the JS sees it as a left click.

[Cthulhu ( ;,;) @Cthulhu_Answers]

3. If a website blocks right-click, the page source cannot be accessed.

4. Holding your phone’s flashlight up to a laptop screen can reveal hidden watermarks embedded in screenshots.

@UK_Daniel_Card @mseebach You two are ignoring the critical option here... where does one obtain these magic risk-reducing beans?

[BSides Las Vegas @BSidesLV]

Things are spinning up. First All Hands call happening tonight. Expect additional details soon, including room blocks, CFP, and more.

Save the dates: August 3rd, 4th, and 5th, 2026

@HackingDave I did mine, was in and out in no time flat. Easy work.

[Jayson E. Street 💙 🤗💛 @jaysonstreet]

Ask me if I’m worried about the future & I’ll say yes.
What I didn’t expect though was to feel happier than I have in such a long time!

Had such amazing conversations today & while no job yet I’m excited for what’s next!
So just celebrating that I’m sure better times are coming!

Autonomous offensive tools amplify harm?

Is that really how we see it?

What would you do?

[Steve Ragan ⚠️ @SteveD3]

@HackingDave Vecna will return in Avengers: Doomsday

[Steve Ragan ⚠️ @SteveD3]

@HackingDave Totally agree. Loved it. I'm glad I stuck with it for all five seasons.

Not a disease. This is the aftermath of a very important lesson called don't touch the glow circle. That will clear up in a week or so.

[Kyle 'esSOBi' Stone @essobi]

My backs out and I got hit with an eviction. If anybody could throw me a bone, I’d appreciate it. DM and I’ll send the link there because every time I post it I get over ran with bots.

Happy Holidays.

[Steve Ragan ⚠️ @SteveD3]

@essobi This sounds like an Alt F4 moment from IRC.... you should post it to various discord channels. <eg>

[Steve Ragan ⚠️ @SteveD3]

@essobi Aw man, I'm so sorry to hear this. Sending love bub.

[Steve Ragan ⚠️ @SteveD3]

@HackingDave @_JohnHammond Have you tried recording with AI?

@VapidHandle That was the other post I did on this prompt, but yeah I was a regular there when my local mall had one.

Keep aging myself... why not?

KBToys, B. Dalton, Kinney Shoes, RadioShack, Woolworth's, Zayre, Service Merchandise, Hickory Farms... I think there was a placed called Ames too, my mom liked it.

Age yourself with a store that doesn’t exist anymore.
