opsec, or “what can you infer from the pdfs in my home directory?”
Thu, 13 Sep 2012 15:22:21 -0400

At secure installations, one's constantly reminded to practice OPSEC. Ships, it is intimated, will otherwise sink; a smiling sailor and his pack might not reach his destination; the cold waters of the North Atlantic swallow up some unfortunate flower of America, his hand reaching out no longer in hope of help, but towards the viewer in accusation. George Washington is quoted: “Even minutiae should have a place in our collection, for things of a seemingly trifling nature, when enjoined with others of a more serious cast, may lead to valuable conclusion.”
Even minutiae should have a place in our collection, for things of a seemingly trifling nature, when enjoined with others of a more serious cast, may lead to valuable conclusion.
When making a point, it's great if you can find patrician Washington quotes and public domain images of the Delaware crossing.
Since I don't have enough time to detail all the crazy great stuff that is going on in Sprezzaworld at the moment, I'll let you come to your own conclusions from the PDFs in my home directory (and ~/.downloads). Is this phoning it in? You better believe it is.

Hopefully that clears things up! In the meantime, go watch our ass- and ball-rocking SprezzOS 0.0.0 preview video! Hint: turn on 1080HD, and maximize it.


hack on!
