🚨 Public service announcement

Dear followers of my account on Mastodon.xyz.
Since this instance became too buggy for me, I moved to infosec.exchange in the hope that I will have a better experience there.
If you get a follow from @lx , know it's me 😉
Feel free to follow me back there 😃

I think I should switch my instance to somewhere else. I am already annoyed that every few weeks I can't login because the server time drifted and my 2FA doesn't work anymore. 🙄

I wonder if other instances are fine.. 🤔

You know you're too much into #infosec when you ask yourself if there is a Gopher-over-TLS implementation 😂

@TheKinrar Is it just me or is there something wrong?

"Elon was found passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by "Teslaquilla" bottles, the tracks of dried tears still visible on his cheeks.

This is not a forward-looking statement, because, obviously, what's the point?

Happy New Month!"

I totally missed this one: "Tesla Goes Bankrupt
Palo Alto, California, April 1, 2018 -- Despite intense efforts to raise money, including a last-ditch mass sale of Easter Eggs, we are sad to report that Tesla has gone completely and totally bankrupt. So bankrupt, you can't believe it."

Just testing #Twidere with Twitter and Mastodon. The integration is quite nice actually..

What are the FreeNAS devs actually thinking? They seem to put all their efforts in the new beta UI (which still sucks) and neglect the rest.
I mean they still offer Nextcloud 10 via their plugins, while version 11 is already discontinued!

"1.1.1.1 has 4 1s. So it seemed clear that 4/1 (April 1st) was the date we needed to launch it."

At first I thought this was an #aprilfoolsday prank, but it actually is real. Cloudflare made their own DNS resolver called 1.1.1.1: https://blog.cloudflare.com/announcing-1111/

In case you missed it, Samsung made a smart speaker with Bixby. It's not as bad as you might expect..

"Sadly, an important announcement: we give up. It's impossible to escape systemd. We recommend every distro to be normalised and assimilated. Our rebel distro will be discontinued this week, repos pointed to Debian.
Our future plans include porting systemd to BSD."

So, I ended up with 30 slides, which leaves me about 30 seconds on average per slide.. 🤔
My first rehearsal took me 17 minutes, I hope that will be fine 😄

I'm supposed to hold a 15-minute presentation but I feel like it's more like 20 minutes long.
Don't know what to shave off really.. I guess I will have to talk faster 😄
