I like data. I’ve always been a bit of a data junky.  In my personal life, I’ve found looking at the data is usually interesting but not terribly useful.  But at work, I identify issues all of the time just by keeping different data up on my dashboards.    This write up however, is for my home, and my new Nest thermostat.  I was so excited to get this thing, I was curious about a dozen different aspects of these smart thermostats.  However, I was terribly disappointed when I got it installed and working and realized that the Nest only stores the last 10 days worth of data.  My assumption is they keep all the data (doesn’t everybody?) but for speed purposes they only let the customer access the last 10 days.  Whatever, its frustrating, but its not like their going to change it for little old me.

Imagine my surprise when I discovered they have an API that the customer can access. I had been bitching about the fact that Nest doesn’t give the customer access to this data, like on the website or something.. somewhere at least.  About 3 weeks later my buddy Buddah sends me this link that I guess showed up on his FaceBalls.

… I may have gotten a lil chub from this.

Destiny 2 is free until Nov 18th.  Read details here.  I’m not vouching for the game, I haven’t even played the game.  But a lot have/did.  Just log into battle.net, accept the gift, and download.

Links:

• If you use KSL.. enjoy Alert Frog
• The Oreville, just fun TV’s.  Need to be able to laugh at Star Trek.

So the above image comes from this, (you should read) and so does this vedeoo.  Enjoy all that.

And then one more quick video for you pubg players out there.

I took my team to the Red Sky 2017 Security conference today.  Its local, fairly inexpensive, and gave my team some insight into what a disaster the current state of security really is.  You can do a lot, but a motivated individual will almost always find a way.  So the conference, decent swag, kinda limited, spose it was only a one day conference.  Continental breakfast, box lunch, free but limited sodas, and drinks (non-alcoholic of course).  Mitnick was entertaining, and most of the speakers in the separate talks were pretty good.  A few were a little dry, it may have just been a bit too warm.  My S4 camera is shit, so the pictures are mediocre at best, almost not better than nothing. They forgot to provide power (probably on purpose) but did provide tables, and wifi, including the required “this is a security conference, these are trained individuals, use the wifi at your own risk, we provide no security” (reminded me of defcon) but seemed like a cop-out to me.  I think I’ll go prepared next year to catch some packets and see if I can’t at least map the topology.

Also, someone has a script running that auto creates accounts on sites like this… In the last 5 days I’ve deleted roughly 1000 new accounts.  Turning off “anyone can register” for now.  If you want an account, ping me and I’ll turn it back on for yous.

I miss blasting these guys.

So one of my Xmas presents was a Amazon Echo.  I pulled it out last night while there were a few guys over.  Mind you, this is five nearly 40 year old men, most with children, and one or two you might call “mature”.

Comad I think needs more sex, he seemed to be overly focused on semen and the mating rituals of body-less AI’s. I think Godoloju managed the best responses from the Alexia, but I think he was cheating, looking up questions.

I’m not sure if it was Buddah or Usuaggie, but one of these two jackasses attempted to order me five brand new fleshlights.  Somehow Alexia got the order wrong (could it have been me screaming “NO” while 4 asshats all screamed “Yes” that messed it up?), and ordered me Knobble’s instead.  But put a password on that shit real quick.

And finally, a little share from MandyPantSuit-  Wil Wheaton And The Unicorn Kitteh Of Death!
