Hi!

I was reading Matt Nelson's post on a permissions issue causing privilege escalation and thought "I have too much software installed, I wonder if any of it is vulnerable".

Skills Canada hosts a robotics competition for the secondary level every year with a different task each time.

I enjoy math so much that my primary goal is to get it done as quickly as possible.

More images are available at the imgur gallery documenting this project.

I started testing Server 2019 as a Hyper-V host a few days ago, but getting the GUI manager to connect was a bit challenging.

The default display in Meshmixer is not ideal for working with technical models.

I was working on a personal project in C on Windows when I stumbled upon a really strange roadblock: a PowerShell instance would not actually run the script given to it when started via Windows API but it would when launched manually from a cmd.exe.

Because I have some masochistic tendencies at times, I decided that it was a totally good idea™ to set up client certificate authentication to secure remote access to my lab services such as Grafana or Guacamole.

I use a CyberPower CP1500AVRLCD as a UPS in my lab.

Due to some weirdness and presumably thumbnail rendering, if a folder is set to "Optimize for Pictures", it takes 10+ times as long as it should to load.

Recently, I made the somewhat-rash decision to switch to nftables from ufw-managed iptables on this VPS.

I use a OnePlus One as my daily driver.

When I was messing about with AD DS a bit on Windows Server 2016 TP 2, I encountered the error General Network Error, with error ID 54.
