It is a great step but it’s rare to have enough buy in from upper managent to enforce any real consequences for repeat offenders. I’ve seen good initial results from this kind of phishing testing, but the repeat offenders never seem to change their habits and your click rate quickly plateaus.
I swear by ddrescue. It’s a situation I strive to never be but i’ve been there before. I used it once to rescue an employees masters capstone project from their dead work laptop.
As someone in the thick of it, it has been a nervewracking quarter for mortgage company IT and Infosec teams. There have been several very high profile breaches the last few months.
Can I ask why chocolatey and not just installed via policy/company portal? I’m not our Intune guy so I don’t know much about the limitations.
This is an interesting observation, not really something I have considered. The key difference here is that you are the one in control of those customizations. Whether the customizations are useful or harmful is entirely up to the user, Kagi just gives you the option.
For me at least, the majority of my searches I just want the correct answer to a question or a link to a specific resource I’m looking for. I don’t really use it as a content discovery engine. Being able to prioritize sites that I have found through experience to have reliable results and exclude sites that are uninformative or irritating is valuable.
Kagi! Worth every penny of the subscription. The emphasis on privacy is a big deal for me but the killer feature is the ability to customize results. I have sites I personally like/trust towards the top and have an ever growing blacklist of sites that don’t get shown at all. No more pinterest, spruce, or other seo spam sites!
Look into using GNU stow! It’s exactly what you’re doing but it creates the symlinks for you.
I love this solution, I’ve been using it for years. I had previously just been using the home directory is a git repo approach, and it never quite felt natural to me and came with quite a few annoyances. Adding stow to the mix was exactly what I needed.
I did it in my down time at work in a few days on an early 2010ish thinkpad.
A vertical mouse saved me from carpal tunnel syndrome. A few years ago I started developing wrist and elbow pain in my mouse arm along with the numbness. It was getting so bad I would take frequent breaks to ice my wrist and would wear a brace at night. I started looking for ergonomic mice and decided to try out a $15 Anker one from Amazon. I felt relief the day I started using it and within a few days the symptoms were gone entirely.
Who is going to tell him?
I’ve used ledger on and off for a few years. I use it along with ledger-autosync to process the transaction files I download from Amazon, Paypal, and my bank. I haven’t gone so far as to automate the import of those files, I just download them manually, but it does support that.
Wow, I’m also ex-mormon and found myself in a similar position when I received a book on Isaiah written by my grandfather. It sat on my shelf for years until I was working my way through an ancient to modern literature reading list and read it alongside the old testament.
In the U.S., the CAN-SPAM act requires companies to honor your opt out/unsubscribe request within 10 days. For particularly agressive mailing lists that don’t honor unsubscribes I will happily report them as spam to my email provider, report them to the FTC, and send a cease and desist letter I generated with chatGPT to their legal@example.com mailbox.
Stay suspicious. As a security guy, i’d way rather respond to 1,000 false positive reports than have an employee that doesn’t think about it and just clicks.
