Coming across things I've written at some point I invariably find myself reflecting on either what an amazing insightful genius I can be, or how much of an incoherent moron. The latter is far more common.

Having one of those days of frustration where I can't help but reflect on how many big decisions in my life have been shaped by misplaced loyalties and attachment to plans that haven't come to fruition. Happy Wednesday everyone.

I've been pretty quiet on here... How's everyone doing?

So that whole Bloomberg story about the fiddled Supermicro boards... Didn't really make any sense to me.

Here's a good analysis of the possibilities: https://www.servethehome.com/bloomberg-reports-china-infiltrated-the-supermicro-supply-chain-we-investigate/

And the key point....

The hounding of Wil Wheaton off here bothers me greatly. Suggests the admins of Mastodon instances can’t be trusted to do the right thing vs the easy thing (which I don’t blame them for entirely) and highlights a fundamental problem of social media. That the ill informed baying crowd gets what they want is simply not good enough.

Hi everybody! (hi dr nick) here to try something new. For a living I help run a university campus network, with a focus on WiFi. For fun it's walking, photography, drums and live sound. Based in the north of England / Northern Ireland, I'm interested in politics and utterly fed up with politicians. I'm a faltering follower of Christ but can't call myself Christian. Always happy to engage/argue/discuss with those I don't agree with in a respectful manner.
Cheers all #introductions #introduction
