I am pretty sure Thor used the 15th of his 9 lives this week. It’s been a rough one for him (and us) but he’s doing better today. He’s 19, diabetic, deaf and now apparently has kidney disease. We’re now trying to prioritize quality over quantity of life for him. Today, I brought his favorite toy (a stuffed can of white claw) to him where he was laying and then went to my bedroom. A few minutes later, I hear him howling and getting closer. He walks up to me, looks up, and drops the toy in front of me. Send happy thoughts to my buddy, please.

If you are out participating in any extra-curricular activities today, remember to stay hydrated

On this Friday the 13th, let us not forget the sacred lesson that Salt ‘N Peppa, the grand visionary of DevOps, taught us so many years ago: “push it! Push it real good!“

Good news everyone. Both AWS and GCP are reporting there is not and has not been a problem with their services recently. Nothing to see here. Please move along.

I don’t know who to credit for this, but it’s beautiful

TIL every part of a Waymo is flammable except the rims in the wheels...

Administering subq fluids to a cat is definitely a 2 person job 😅

I may have finally had an idea for how to use the domain “dumpster.news”

I’ve taken meetups.infosec.exchange offline temporarily due to a few critical vulnerabilities disclosed/fixed in an update released today. The maintainers seem to have lost the ability to publish container images into the docker registry, so I have to battle through building them by hand, which is always super easy and painless

I have asked Hetzner to add some extra cooling to the infosec.exchange servers to dissipate the intense heat generated by the firehose of hot takes flowing through the fediverse this evening.
