The independent living facility has been taken over by an Adelaide-based NDIS funded company and I really hope this means better care for residents, and less emails to the council for me.

At this point it feels like the only time I venture online anymore is because I'm angry about something, or delighted. I'm disappointed to say today I'm online and updating my blog because I'm angry about something. garden.errbufferoverfl.me/notebook/202...
My thoughts on the CyberPath Professionalisation Pilot Survey – errbufferoverfl, enthusiastic zinester & artist, reluctant security engineer
I came here to back up some data and all I got was angry about an accreditation program

At the risk of ruining Australian security professionals’ weekend: please spend 30 mins filling out the ACS CyberPath survey. surveyv8.humanlistening.com/survey/b330e... I don’t want mandatory accreditation. I suspect many of you don’t either. We should probably tell them.

Good news friends! After replacing the printer drums and some more tinkering (they had to pull the printer apart) it's working again! 😙🖨️💕 Thanks to everyone who helped cover the bill, it’s taken so much stress out of getting this bad boy back up and running.
I can't access my DMs because I haven't age verified my account, BUT I can tell you my zine on Bullshit Jobs in InfoSec is now available on my shop! ➡️ Physical: https:// ko-fi.com/s/075d8222c6 ➡️ Digital: https:// ko-fi.com/s/53c44f14a4

Agree, their website provides little detail. ConnectID was accredited by the ACCC (the Digital ID regulator) last year see digital ID register link below. There is information on what is needed to achieve this accreditation here: www.digitalidsystem.gov.au/digital-id-a...
Accredited entities register
This register contains details of Digital ID entities that are, or have been within the last 12 months, accredited under the Digital ID Act 2024.

Hot take - even as a joke, I don't really like the idea of ppl blaming interns for taking down production Even on the chance it happened to be true (and there are definitely cases where it wasn't an intern), if an intern was able to do that, that's a problem with the processes and systems in place

This is probably one of the most pretentious things I will ever say about music but I think albums made with streaming in mind are inferior to albums made to listen to end to end. The sound and feeling they give is completely different and you can tell. There I said it. I won’t take it back.
Oil painting is such an underrated hobby because what do you mean for three hours my main task can just be “don’t eat the paint”?!
Yesterday we caught someone trying to start a street fight with our mailbox.

Hiya, one of the local disableds here. While you're celebrating #Menulog closing down, remember: Woolies and Coles delivery is getting less reliable (at least where I am) and platforms like Doordash give me access to Aldi as well as ways to fix my weekly groceries when the orders are (very) wrong.
These reforms violate human rights obligations, contradict the evidence and will be devastating for children and young people in conflict with the law.
