Hi! During the month of October I participated in a Capture The Flag Event hosted by Huntress. I slacked a lot, and didn't do write ups when I should have, but I've finished up and posted the Malware challenges I did solve on My GitHub. Check it out here: github.com/coryfancypan...

Look at Lily she's a turtle now.

So far I've read 16 books this year. And a good bit of manga, but that's harder for me to keep track of. :)

I want to be at home playing Slay the Spire 2 ngl.

One thing I'll never understand working in an IT department is the amount of people who put in tickets when their hard drive or email is full. Like dude delete stuff. Why do you need my help for that??

No matter how many times I see or read One Piece. I'll always feel the same emotions every time.

This book was amazing. Such a good read. I love science fiction so much. I'll watch the movie when it comes out!

This book has been so good. I'll watch the movie when that comes out!

i love dns it always works great for me 👄✨ video was created by the luminary genius @citiesbydiana.bsky.social 🌆

@nanami.codes a coworker said he had a swedish friend in town and brought me these.

I was trying to teach my coworker packet captures today using Wireshark, and he went "I have no idea what we're looking at it's a lot of numbers." I said to him "Yeah that doesn't really go away, it just gets easier to look at the areas you need."

I can usually tell who doesn't know how to configure a firewall based on if they open both TCP and UDP, to make sure the traffic goes through.

Everytime I read a manga with some romance. Or a romance. I always feel like the male is dense. Then I think about my own life and wonder how often I was dense. Probably all the time tbh.

My roommate and I have been watching this J-drama that's based on a Manga called Hirayasumi. And honestly I love it so much. I could relate to the main character quite a bit.

All the plants in my house don't have pots. So I think I'll be making some custom pots, and I want to include this water sensor. I threw this together quickly my I2C screen is so tiny it just says "Soil Moisture: 80%" Now I just need to design and 3d print some simple pots.

I finished reading Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro this morning, and I think that's up there for one of my favorite books.

“why isnt there a straight pride month” is the exact same thing as asking “why isnt there a british independence day”

Lily is napping, and I'm reading the book Klara and the Sun, next to her. We spend time together. ❤️

I'm adding books to my reading list for next year, and this is such a fun time. I also found a handful of books from high school a lot of classic literature I'm thinking of re-reading but those are low on the list.

Merry Christmas/ happy holidays to you all. I hope it's been a good day!

I'll be making a side dish for Christmas dinner at my friends house. I'm thinking I'll make two. So far I think honey roasted carrots. What else should I make? What Christmas side dishes do you like?

There's only one thing on my mind today and that's One Piece. A coworker got caught up on the manga and we talked about it. Yesterday's episode of the anime was phenomenal. I have no room in my head for anything else. I should re-read the manga.

I couldn't sleep much last night. I went to bed around 2am, work starts at 7am. I'm now at the office disassociating, because I can't focus.

Lily is reading a book.

My favorite videos right now are the 10/10 bleed out spots.

I had a fun conversation last night with an old friend I haven't spoken to in 9 years. I want to ask her more questions. A lot can happen in 9 years.

Lily is happy I'm home. I'm happy to be with her.

Damn I leave Japan tomorrow. Not ready for that. It's been lovely here.

I got a coffee from a place called Cafe_Reissue, and they do specialized coffee art. So I got a Luffy. Here's a before and after. I love it. After is kinda lore accurate

Guys, I pulled a legendary gacha.

Hot drink #2 corn soup. Not as good as clam soup. But it's fine. I'm not big on corn.

Clam soup slaps. And vending machines/ convenience stores with hot drinks are such a good idea.

I've been reading a lot lately. I finished my book this morning before work, I also got bored of music and started listening to audiobooks. I should finish this book today too. Two books down right before vacation is a nice feeling.

I feel like all I do is complain about my job, but I couldn't log into one of our clients firewalls. I recalled that one of my techs factory reset it, turns out he never changed the password. So this device publicly available to the internet had a default password.... Why the hell did he do that?

I go on vacation Friday, and everyone in the office has decided to pile up work to give to me this week???? Why exactly did you wait until now? I need out of this company.p

One thing I like to do. If I see a person posting about their hobby and I know nothing about it. I like to comment and compliment them. I'll probably never see them again, but it's still cool that they made it, and I think we all should smile more. Post about your hobbies. I'll support you.

She loves this thing. Feels like I should put her above the keyboard I bet she would love that lol.
