i swear that while i was driving down nasa road one today, i saw an older hispanic guy going down the sidewalk on a riding mower, holding a cattle prod. i’m still trying to figure out how much time i should invest in trying to find a reasonable backstory for this.

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@iBrandooon @dc713hou @dc281houston both groups are active. 713 meets inside the 610 loop generally, 281 meets in the friendswood/pearland/clear lake area (south)

@HouSecCon just want to verify - today is oct 12. 2 days is oct 14. but the website says "Register By October 17, 2022 11:59 PM". is the website wrong?

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@0xc0da @HoustonHackers “haha”? now that’s a name i’ve not heard in a long time. ; ) they haven’t started meeting up against since covid. @dc713hou and @dc281houston are meeting though

could the top two stickers have said “hack the planet!” or “hack the gibson!” ? yes. do they? no. but the one in the upper left absolutely glows like cyberdelia. and the one on the upper right is as metal as cereal killer. see you at defcon

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@firesparkcons probably not. i generally don’t take any external keyboards. i mean, i’m snobby, but i’m not *that* snobby. at least not when on trips. ; )

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@firesparkcons @DoomsdayGoth @dc713hou @dc281houston in general, dc713 is 2nd thurs monthly, dc281 is 3rd thurs monthly. both start ~6:30. 713 is central-ish, 281 is south (pearland/friendswood/webster). both have discords.

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@t0g3lyX_0 haha hasn’t spun back up yet. dennis was at the last dc713 meetup though.

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@BrendanClemmer @dc713hou @dc281houston i’ve not heard of a dc832 yet. or a dc346. dc713 meetups are central. dc281 meetups are south.

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@HDCares your orders support is lacking. i got a robocall an appliance order was arriving tomorrow. but i placed no order. concerned, i called but they said w/o an order # they couldn’t help bcz “security”. not via my name, my address, my phone #, etc. then they hung up on me.

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

@dsilverman lucky the coffee was fresh? or lucky i’m old, but not ancient? i mean, i didn’t ask for a jamoke or a phosphate. : ) either way, if i wanted to wait 5+ mins for a fresh cup of coffee i would have just ground my own beans and done a pour over. it was about convenience, dang it!

[TeRRY LeIFeSTe @phliKtid]

how is it that a coffee house, almost empty, has run out of all of their drip coffees and has to start brewing some after i order? is regular coffee no longer… …is this a sign i’m old? i mean, fresh coffee i guess?
