20 Bensons


George Benson - Breezin'

Let’s get this straight: George Benson was one of the best guitarists of his age. Good enough to play with Miles Davis. Fuck, his guitar playing is good.

It’s worth reminding people of this, because Benson gets remembered for his career as a smooth mom-soul vocalist.

Although there’s nothing wrong with either aspect of his career, I think you do have to view the two as distinct.

This album was, apparently, where everyone (and by everyone, I mean producer, Tommy Lipuma) discovered he had a voice, hence the inclusion of This Masquerade. So, Breezin’ marks the transition between Benson the guitarist and Benson the vocalist who also plays guitar. And also, one would imagine, between Benson the doing OK financially and Benson the doing very nicely, thank you very much.

INTRODUCING

#Mastodharma

Each Saturday, we read and discuss one chapter of a Buddhist sutra (starting with the Lotus Sutra)

(we will only be doing one chapter per week to keep things easy and low pressure for everyone)

This is our first week so we’re starting with Chapter One

chapter one is the stage setting chapter. there's dragons and bodhisattvas and the Buddha shoots a laser out of his face

all you gotta do to join in the discussion is read the chapter and post on Saturday (Sept 27) with the hashtag #Mastodharma (which you should also follow and possibly pin)

text is available several places online for free like here:

sacred-texts.com/bud/lotus/ind…

or pdf
huntingtonarchive.org/resource…

there's also audio versions on YouTube if that's better for you:

this one also has the text on the screen:

I thought you were making fun of things when you had that "and here's a million entities listed that care about you learning this. Then I started reading chapter 1.

Now I am not sure if was reading a religious text or a random table with NPC names.

And people wonder why I stick with physical media.

This is why.

Music can vanish from Spotify at any moment. A CD, though, stays with you. And if you want, you can rip it and carry it on any device—whether that’s a DAP or your phone.

How many stories of "get popped, then do an emergency FIDO2 deployment" does your leadership need to read before you decide to deploy FIDO2 proactively?
in reply to Royce Williams

the possible options:

path 1: proactive install and never get popped: $100,000 (for the implementation)

path 2: proactive install and get popped: $100,000 (for the implementation)

or

path 3: no pro-active install and never get popped: $0

path 4: no pro-active install and get popped: $20,000,000

path 1/2 avg: $100,000
path 3/4 avg: $10,000,000

save $9,900,000 by pro-actively installing FIDO2. money on the table.

• ‘#SpiderMan: Brand New Day’



Okay, this is a new one to me:

Someone sent a vulnerable user under my supervision a postal letter on PayPal letterhead, listing a non-trivial charge, with a phone number to call if the charge didn't seem valid. Next thing we know, the vulnerable person is being walked through installing remote control software on their PC, at which point the scammer changes the password on their cloud-based email, and then sets up an automatically executed "this PC has been locked for your protection, please enter password" splash screen, that only the attacker knows the password for.

It appears that one team or shift might do initial access and persistence, and then another team explores further weakness. Or maybe it was just the end of their work day.

Strong MFA on the cloud email, with notifications of changes to password sent to recovery email addresses, was the only way I found out.

interesting!

given the resources these fraud orgs have it would make sense to specialise by role. because the engagement skills are totally different skillset to the technical skills.
it would be expensive to train two persons to do both, much cheaper to have a person on each job. or more, given the size of these crime groups.

thank goodness you found it.

Brendan Carr Is A Shameless Liar: Now Pretending He Didn’t Break The Law And Censor Comedians Critical Of His Dim, Unpopular Boss


Brendan Carr is fairly typical of a far right wing zealot, in that he has absolutely no compulsion about lying, constantly, about everything. The latest case in point: Brendan Carr is trying to pretend he didn’t abuse FCC power and break the law to try and censor a comedian critical of our mad, idiot king. […]
