After the slot punch I thought I’d make another hook, but halfway through changed my mind and made a long handled parfait spoon instead.

Ok, so it's not much, but it's the first fully forged #knife I've made. Made from an old mower blade, with the tang end folded and forge welded, then drawn out slightly.
Took a punt & quenched in water & tempered to straw by heating the back of the blade & waiting for the colours to run. Sharpened to 8000 grit.
Tang was heated and pushed into the handle, burning it's own hole, then epoxied for final fitting.

As I said, it's nothing special, but a start. #blacksmith #metalwork

Went downstairs, opened the screen door and something fell onto the step. Turns out, it was this little Spotted Velvet Gecko (a young one, about 8cm (3inches) long.

@lrshdl Yeah, we have 2.2ha of semi-rainforest, with a little bit carved out for the house and yard.

This is looking out the back door when during the rain.

8th Mar 2013:
Our day in Lichfield turned out to be extremely foggy (didn't lift all day). In the background you can just see the spire of Lichfield Cathedral which normally dominates the town.

Lichfield itself is a quaint township, with a good selection of historic buildings. Also the home of Erasmus Darwin, Grandfather to Charles Darwin. (his house pictured in colour). #Photography #Travel

Melbourne skyline at Dusk, as seen from the hotel room I was staying in back in Nov last year.

Didn't have a tripod for this pano, so don't pixel peep ;-)

@mcscx powershell script (run locally):

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pq681ruqmu95lqk/testMS17.ps1?dl=0

It will email whoever you configure in the script if it finds the host is vulnerable.

@mcscx I have a powershell script I'm running across our fleet of Win10 machines. We don't have many 7's left, however, the nmap script I used to do a network scan picked up a couple of 7's that needed patching earlier in the week.

https://github.com/cldrn/nmap-nse-scripts/blob/master/scripts/smb-vuln-ms17-010.nse

Run with:

sudo nmap -sC -p445 --open --max-hostgroup 3 -Pn --script smb-vuln-ms17-010.nse network/mask

@acw Just starting Friday here. Likely be patching more machines against MS17-010 after running local scans yesterday, but for now, it's breakfast and mastodon.

@Gargron I used to be like that, the key is to Pi k maybe one or two people in the audience that look friendly and talk to them. Just ignore the rest of the room. Stay on topic, and only talk about things your passionate about.
