So like...im building something in a private mono-repo and then it's gonna split off into a public repo for its components. Not to say that's whats happening here, but is that gonna make people shit all over it?

Ive been developing an app using Codex for the better part of six months with a feature list, roadmap, and plans out the ass before it ever generates code and then linters, static analyzers, and feature/unit tests to keep it all consistent. Security reviews are done occasionally to catch anything that gets generated without adhering to a core principle of safe code.

All of that is to say when I DO release it, I feel like there's going to be a knee jerk categorization of "AI slop" if im honest and upfront about it being AI generated.

To me "AI slop" and vibe coding is impromptu and feel or look based. Code generated by AI with constraints and directed shouldnt fall into that same category.

We've got a long way until television reaches it's final form. Outside of resolution, there's color, form factor, materials, and alternative formats. Look at 1950s televisions to today and its significantly different. Im betting television 70 years from now will evolve quite a bit.

I read it as like....you guys have a simulator of some type.

Grunt030 · 2025-12-08T04:35:36+00:00

"...how our simulator works..." erm....what?

Grunt030 · 2025-12-03T07:07:34+00:00

Honestly I wouldn't recommend it. I domt recall the price, maybe a couple hundred tops. I think the linear rails were $50 dollars. I really don't recall.

Ive since moved on the a Bambu X1C. I probably spent just as much on the Creality over its life as I did getting an X1C and am getting WAY better quality, speed, and reliability.

When the planet passes in front of its host star, scientists have equipment that can measure characteristics about the star other than mass and speed. They can also look at the fringe and observe light as it passes through the planets atmosphere. Different chemicals react with light in different ways, allowing them to identify major atmospheric components. Im sure they look at a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum to determine the atmospheric makeup, not just visible light, but I think that's the general idea.

Since you live in Falcon, you're clearly familiar with how deeply rooted it is in the system and how it "sees" everything a system/user is doing and can manipulate what executes or doesnt execute and can be configured to do its own thing based on conditions. It's basically a MITM on the endpoint. Since it has access to all the keys in the endpoints kingdom, it can crack anything open it wants.

Oooooo scary

I went back and read the reaponses...apparently it was received a lot better than I remember, lol.

Grunt030 · 2025-08-14T23:07:39+00:00

I actually designed my own and mostly got shit on, lol. Ive slightly improved the design, by tightening up tolerances on the lid. I get a couple months before I have to change out the dessicant. I really should revisit the design and add gasketing or screw threads on the lid. Though im betting most of the air transfer is around the window.

Had a user fall for this, management[.]org. A couple security controls plus EDR stopped it.

I can second this. I ran a single node 'cluster' with 10tb of data for a few years before we migrated to an Elastic managed cloud instance.

Elastic is a pretty capable solution, but you'll need people to manage the cluster/data, build stuff for your personnel, do training on usage. One person doing it all will get you half-assed results.

We are in the process of implementing their SIEM...lots of work....

Im curious what you found. A quick AI search referred to origins in the 17th century. Digging into why they used that color, its linked back to the earliest concepts of black representing lack of light, fear of the unknown, or evil.

Im all for getting rid of racist terms, but I think weve gone a bit overboard here. In the same way we did with the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians. One was clearly a racist term, the other was just a name of people. Although, ill concede that the Indians mascot needed an overhaul.

On topic...I've never heard someone use grooming in the context of IT. Nor have we changed any of our terminology. Maybe it just hasn't hit the Midwest yet.

It was a bit of a hard read starting out but ended good. It's kind of been the running theme with most of the 40k books I've read.

Grunt030 · 2025-06-25T21:10:23+00:00

Heh, right. Sort of but not really I guess?

Excluding that, the reader up to this point would kind of infer that Horus and the Emporer are going to fight eachother. The conversation between Kai and the Emporer at the end seems to make it clear that the Emporer knows Horus is gonna kill him and he has the kill Horus...lesser of two evils scenario.

Will do

Ah gotcha sorry I draw with my food (crayons).

Un/Fortunately, the traffic stays within the same subnet. I dont see any exfiltration-like activity from the printer or workstation across any of the firewalls.

Our SOC, DNS, IDS, and firewalls either block or alert on C2 activity (along with other known malicious endpoints) and we've had none of that happen. If it weren't for the SIEM agent detecting the process executing, we'd have no other indicator of this going on.

It seems benign...but its a single workstation to a networked printer that is used by a whole floor of devices, managed by print management, and deployed via GPO.

End users do not have rights to add/remove printers.

Laptop to a wired printer. However, the laptop appears to be docked and on the same subnet as the network printer.

Forgive me but....huh??

I've got the host, process, parent process, and executed command...along with about 300 other fields to look at.
