@mike I've had a lot of luck with ProtonVPN, and my friend has had a lot of luck with ExpressVPN, I'd recommend checking those out!

@jasonesman @mike they're also open source and have an encrypted (beta, desktop only iirc) calendar.

@c0debabe I'm new to mastodon and looking for more infosec to follow, I caught the https://mastodon.social/@rysiek/104598280483861323 toot and thought I'd follow everyone on there as a good start. Your bio asks that I introduce myself before following, would it be okay?

Hi, I'm new to mastodon if you don't count making a profile and forgetting about it.I'm mostly interested in all things infosec (I'm currently studying for my OSCP), as well as scientific and technological advancement, which I see being done best via FOSS.I'd love to get to know more of you!#introductions

@tA I've always thought of anarchy as something that sounds good but is unrealistic when you apply humans to that sort of system (as is clearly becoming the case with democracy). But because I feel that way that's exactly why I will read the book. I'm always open to having my perspective changed, thanks!

@mike couldn't agree more. I honestly feel for open source adoption, we need more UI/UX designers on these project. I'm sure there are exceptions to the rule, but something I find a lot with FOSS is that it's pretty ugly and ofttimes unwieldy. Like a lot of people here that doesn't bother me, but it's a major barrier to adoption for a lot of others.

@mike I'm going to respond to your lack of free time by recommending you spend all of your lack thereof reading Getting things done, by David Allen. It's by far the best life organising/to do list book I've read and is regarded as the best by many.I usually base a non-fiction/self help/whatever you call it book's worth on the actions the reader has taken since reading, but I've not done much here. That's a great disservice to the book so I'll be re-reading it to further cement the teachings.

@cooper @Gina as a British person, we're doing the same but then we get to turn around and watch our own PM, so I guess we have a double feature!

@Gina @cooper the US office was better in my opinion, and US politics ARE more interesting :ac_pride:

I was wondering if anyone has any spare time to mentor me through my oscp? I've failed twice and have the next one coming up in a month. I would like to figure out where my weaknesses lie and fix them before then if possible. Happy to provide more details on request.Thanks in advance! Please feel free to boost etc but no pressure.

For anyone new to the fediverse, I can't give a huge list of people to follow as I still need to find great people too! But someone I absolutely recommend is @rysiek, the amount of consideration and love rysiek has for the fediverse (and every one of you) shows in every post. He is an absolute font of knowledge and experience and is frankly the wisest person I've seen on Mastodon. Big rysiek fan 🥰

Due to the influx of people I thought I'd write an updated #introduction post, this time with liberal use of hashtags.Hi everyone, I'm Connor, I currently live in the North East of England.I currently work in #infosec with a focus on web application security and got my #oscp last year so I'm officially a l33t #hacker according to some corporation!

@bara never heard of soy face, and I have no idea how it's a goatse reference, but they say no press is bad press right? 😂

@dia I've had my head shaved for years I'm just super lazy about updating pics, but I really do appreciate the kick up the ass to update.I'm not against non-fediblocked stuff, or running my own stuff, but I also don't wanna be inundated with paedophiles and extremists, is there a fediblock-lite? Are there any specific instances that shouldn't be blocked, cause like... buildthatwallandmakeamericagreatagain.trumpislovetrumpis.life...fucking hell. I promise my day isn't worse with that blocked.

@dia even as just a little project starting my own instance should be pretty fun, cheers for the recommendation!
