@Mohaidoss @vxunderground @backblaze We're happy to help out if you still have a need. Where things can get bumpy is when criminals start linking to public bucket files as part of their phishing/malware campaigns. That becomes a site reputation problem for us. Private buckets would work fine

@vxunderground @backblaze you guys have to help nerds out

Today virus exchange was banned from our (other) hosting provider (Wasabi). They claim our domain virus-dot-exchange has malware on it. They cited 1 specific file hash and stated virus exchange is disabled until we can explain why we have 1 malware on the server What the fuck?

@KyleDHiggins was sitting next to a couple at BWI (incl a fan) who recently experienced a loss. After expressing his deepest condolences, Kyle reached into his bag and gave the husband his last copy of Radiant Black 18 Infinite. Beautiful moment of pure kindness.. I'm a new fan

@MerrittBaer You've got this, Warrior!

Little bit of chemotherapy on my face 💜

@gabsmashh Ask for the title. Honestly, that's all you're missing. I've been following you since Feb 2020 your contributions to the field, volunteer work, and the ease with which you communicate complex topics is textbook leadership DNA. Even if they don't give you direct reports yet, ask.

those in manager- or director-level roles, how did you position yourself to move into that type of role? i have been working hard to break into one of those roles and just keep spinning my wheels

@malwareunicorn How much data are we talkin'? Maybe we can help with some storage...

A friend asked me to find out why his connected lightbulb app was asking for his location, so I ducked out to Australia’s favourite hardware store, Bunnings, and grabbed one to check out. The Android grid connect app has 500k+ downloads. Let’s take a quick look! 🧵 (1/n)
