InfoSec wannabe, BS CS'20 @ UT Dallas. Always ready to learn more! (he/him)
Intro to #Crypto professor is great- first words out of his mouth were "This is NOT a class about Bitcoin!"
In Layer 8, the user, a human, dies. As they die, they decompose back into base parts. They become the Physical. They become Layer 1. And, thus, the circle is complete.
This is the OSI Layer Model.

It's a good day! Got my Master Lock #3 & 140T in the mail, took about 5 minutes each to be able to reliably crack them open. It's not much, but it's a start!
I guess I should do an #introduction! I'm Thomas, a #CS major at the University of Texas at Dallas.
Interested in #infosec, specifically #pentesting and #redteam work (also interested in #privacy, #iot, #re, #crypto, and other things!) Outside of infosec, things I like: #guitar, #bass, #lockpicking, #python, #CTF, #ethics, #politics (leftist) #linux, #queer, and #coffee.
I don't know what I'm doing, so be nice :) Currently in #DFW area, but in #RTP for the summer! Hmu if you wanna talk!
