Replying to @gitlab
@gitlab a CI job of mine on shared runner hung after the actual job, taking only 47s between prepare_executioner and cleanup_file_variables, but wasted almost my whole month compute on the 3rd of the month. Should I have to buy more compute cause your runner hung for 2.5hr?

I paid for GitLab for several years for my small not-for-profit project, despite it being one of my largest expenses, largely for more CI time. I finally decide I can't afford to keep paying and this happens. Am I going to be forced to give you more money for CI or support?

Doing some digging uncovered that there was an incident and it looks like CI minutes will be reset. Thank you in advance for fixing things, despite the lack of communications thus far.

Ok real talk time. We all love the movie Hackers, that much is a given. But what do you think is the cringiest, worst written line of the movie? Is it the awkward "And I'm still a virgin!"? "Never fear. I is here"? Or something else? cc @HackersCurator

Hello Parisian/French/European hackers! In 2022 @hesconference made a splash announcing its return and a conference in Sept 2022. But I can't find any evidence of a con actually happening. Anybody know what went down? Did a con take place?

My @defcon protip: write down a list or save a file with all the cool project ideas that pop into your head while inspired at the con. Otherwise, after you go home and the high wears off, you'll forget most of them until next year #defcon31

Excited for DEF CON 31 in a few weeks?! Me too! InfoconDB has the data on official presentations and the presenters' previous talks so you can plan your con and binge on other great content! infocondb.org/con/def-con/de… #defcon

Fun fact: If you don't count Jeff Moss aka The Dark Tangent (creator of DEF CON and Black Hat, @thedarktangent) due to his many credits for e.g. opening ceremonies, Kurt Opsahl (@kurtopsahl) of the EFF has the most presentation credits and has since InfoconDB first launched
