nah they're talking about the second item, not the knot gag. the second item is in fact an ovipositor, complete with egg mold for making your own gelatin eggs


i mean i'm no stranger to shoving weird things up my rear end so i'm not exactly in a position to judge but it seems like an... odd choice for a charity raffle taking place at a professional industry conference

It's a bit of a stretch to call DEFCON a "professional" industry conference, but yeah. Still a bit much.

i mean don't most people who go do so because work paid for it? i think it sorta counts just based on that :shrug:

to be fair they are managing it fairly well - to see the things you have to hit a "show NSFW prizes" button on their raffle web page - but it definitely feels like a case of the ol' "nerds don't understand why other people might have a problem with sexuality being everywhere all the time"

The cost of DEFCON is not out of reach for most people. I paid my own way for years. Then when I worked at $BIG_BANK, they sent me to Black Hat every year and I just stayed the extra days to go to DEFCON and expensed it.

The idea that a CISSP (aka “security expert” because they take a test) has no idea who cDc is pretty drat funny and also shows how loving useless paper experts are.

Same.

I don’t know about their VPN, but note they have a free tier and a paid tier. The paid tier is supposedly faster, so I imagine there’s some kind of throttling going on with the VPN. They also spell out what information they collect (surprisingly little), but that might be down to your threshold of how much you believe corporations.

As always the answer is algo + Digital Ocean droplet if you need a VPN.

Since it said "could", I'd assume this might be a case of logs including the websites for auto-fill requests from browser extensions. I'm willing to hope they're not dumb enough to not encrypt the whole database itself.

Yeah, that’s how I read it as well. They’re logging what sites are making the requests (which would piss me off as well).

I would think if you were pushing “secure your passwords”, the helper app would only pull directly from the local vault secured by your master key. If it’s a cloud based solution (like 1password), there’s really no need for the provider to do anything other than facilitate the transport and syncing of the vault to the local copy. The cloud vault is used for replication between different client apps (reconciliation should be handled by the client side apps). This is probably naive of me.
