When client gets ransomware via open rdp when you have 2x 2 month old tickets where you notified them that is was bad and they needed to let you turn it off.

Followup to toot earlier in the week, I've posted my baseline security audit we do for new client onboardings. Huge thanks to @troyhunt and @MGrafnetter for making this possible and making my job easier.

I love the smell of good working backups on a Monday.

A friend of mine was recently involved in a motorcycle accident. Bike totaled, wrist broken, surgery for torn ligaments needed. He has no health insurance. Anything you can give would help https://www.gofundme.com/shaun039s-ouchie-fund?pc=tw_dn_cpgntopnavlarge_r&rcid=r01-155473377157-29c9aa0d2e714b4f

Took a space picture with my phone. Can see the Orion nebula. Neato.

Another cool thing about #mastodon and #fediverse in general. The online outrage machine seems to basically not exist. Even scrolling the federated timeline I don't see it. Thanks for being chill everyone

Been taping off lexapro on my own for the last 3 weeks. Went from 20mg to 10mg to 10mg every other day to none at all. I haven't noticed any adverse effects aside from losing some weight (I need to do that anyway). So only things I'm taking now is Buspar and Vyvanse.

Our pond has gotten quite full from all the rain. Took opportunity to take daughter kayaking. Good memories.

Been off work for 10 days after the death of my father-in-law. Feels good to try to get back to normal routine. I only have 45 tickets and 360 unread emails. 🤦‍♂️
