Tod BeardsleyLook what you made her do!
My attorney and wife, @YeeHawClaire@mastodon.social , got so mad about the redistricting of #Texas's District 11 that she filed the paperwork to run for #USCongress today.

Tod BeardsleyBack home, and one of my #defcon regrets is my failure to buy some gear from @dirtcheapgeek@ioc.exchange and saying hi to @0x00string@infosec.exchange in person.
Another time.
Tod BeardsleyTechnically, my goal for this year’s #defcon was to take the ham technician exam. Technically, I have achieved that goal.
Tod BeardsleyUpdate: I passed my #defcon ham tech exam on my second attempt. Dope.
Apparently this lets me bounce stuff off the moon. Which is kinda all I want to do now.

Tod BeardsleyW/R/T #CVE
1) This is still a thing: https://resist.bot/petitions/PWDDUS
Makes it easy to pester Congress about the CVE program.
2) I was reminded of this bit of Internet history: https://www.pigdog.org/auto/digital_gar_gar_gar/shortfeature/605.html
It was written in 1999, about 3 months before CVE came on this scene. It’s snarky. But there was no DNS Fairy, either.
Tod BeardsleyHey, ask the #CVE project your uncomfortable questions starting in 10m at #defcon policy, W234 second level. go!
Tod BeardsleyLas Vegas monorail is real pokey today for #defcon. Many minutes of delay before it leaves each station. Plan accordingly, public transit fans!
