Fun story, my company just kicked off a PoC with crowdstrike 2 days ago. So far my computer was the only one that the agent was on as we had other work that needed to be done and we paused the rollout to the rest of my team. I woke up to boot loop hell today. Got it fixed right away, but so glad we didn’t roll it out any further. Not a good look to be starting a PoC with.

I used Power Delete Suite the other day. It takes a while to run because it’s scripted vs using API. Instructions were simple and easy to use. Just let it run in a tab in the background and eventually it will work through all your posts or comments. I set it to just edit all my comments. If you leave the text box empty for what you want it edited to it will put random comments in, such as I like coffee. I like hiking. I like reading. I like beer. Etc.

Antenna hooked up to my tivo OTA. Able to record local TV without subscription.

My local Lowe’s has a bin to drop them in near the exit after checkout.

The home Depot has a drop bin near the entrance.

I’ve got some college but no official degree as well. I did a bootcamp for a CCNA with 0 experience in 2012. It was like learning a foreign language. I had to buy the official cert guide and studied hard for a year, I eventually got the CCNA cert in 2014. After that I kept getting additional Cisco certs, CCNA - security, CCNA - cyberops, and now am working on the CCNP. Once I got my CCNA I was able to get into a help desk position, and have moved up to analyst, and engineer. With each job jump have increased salary 30-50%. Honestly in tech I’d recommend moving around every 1-3 years to get that pay bump.

If you have a good manager, they will recognize that a college degree in IT and security specifically is not really necessary.

Some certs to look at for entry level network security, Cisco cyberops associate or CompTIA security+

Homebrewing. I have made many a beer over 8 or 9 years. They get better with each batch, but along with it is another new piece of equipment to make the process easier or more efficient.

Correct, Gmail essentially doesn’t “see” dots hello@gmail is the same as h.e.l.l.o@gmail

hello+anything@gmail will also be delivered to hello@gmail. This is great for signing up for mailing lists or subscriptions then creating a filter afterwards to do with it what you please.
