Welcome to vlog. There's a 334 and I just cut off a plane. So that's Why I'm drinking some whiskey. It's a Time to clear my throat here and Keep it going because you know a few days of being at an event which was a lot of fun is Also tiring on the voice, but it's definitely Kind of fun doing these live streams late at night because I'm not exactly tired when I first get off Well, maybe when I was on the plane, but then you get off the plane get home and now you're like oh, I'm awake again But you know it'll curve off soon enough But you know, I'll keep the live stream going for as long as needs to be here So let's see you have good luck a stream. I'm gonna miss it. I see some people talking about the Maybe they are not all the evening people. I imagine if you're on the California side of Things like you're on the West Coast This isn't that late for you But of course the East Coast or the people in Europe are probably going. Yeah, this is this is definitely really late But I don't have anywhere to tell you where I'm going to be right now So I could tell you where I've been which was the IT nation's secure So I did that event though lots of fun. That was a event that was You know, it's just a good time and I posted some pictures about it I is always just so awesome hanging out with people in person. I'd thrown a few things on LinkedIn Jason Slagle submitted for a talk and he brought along a couple of his friends, which is me and Matt Lee We all had a really just good back and forth that we did the crowd the crowd really enjoyed our talk The feedback was great. So it's the same exact But some new variation and of course because we don't reach from a script I can't say same exact same concept is the talk that I've done before on How would I hack you now? This is a talk that was from originally CompTIA then the three of us did it together It's on my YouTube channel with all the links and everything else and we just did an updated variation Walked people through stuff. The concepts haven't really changed matter of fact like there's new versions of some of the tools but there's not really any large difference the Methodology the tradecraft that brings you through this hack hasn't really changed and it's still completely something you can do matter of fact Matt Lee was very quick to point out that despite there being finally a new version of Evulgenics It's been around for years and there's enhancing the features the same premise of using you know a Threat actor in the middle attack was as an attacker in the middle How did Microsoft renamed it and so we're trying to use whatever the new naming scheme is but attacker in the middle Where they may send you a fishing link and fish up your tokens, etc. etc. So definitely Definitely kind of cool Walking through the attack scenario teaching people about it That was you know, that was the talk we gave there But it was a lot about a good talks there and getting to see lots of Friends in person and things like that that just makes it kind of fun because it's you know It sometimes is the after-parties and get-togethers and gatherings with everyone that make it just that much more fun So definitely some great people there and definitely a great time. I don't have anywhere else I on my agenda just yet. Nothing's like confirmed, but I will log your con, but that's pretty that's a few months off That's a little ways out there. I'll see some of you there It was really cool seeing a lot of people in person that you know, the I don't get to see you all the time. I'll see you So that was how it nation secure was just absolutely Great event There was also Where else was there? Oh, so couple with the interesting takeaway here I wanted to bring up and I just thought this was really funny and you can look up this person This is deviant DEV INT deviant olem and You know, I grabbed on the plane. I was listening to Dark Net Diaries like oh great new episode I want to listen to this and I'm like deviant olem by the way deviant olem was also the keynote at IT nation secure You can also find They pull it up real quick. So we I will make sure we share this with people. He's a physical penetration tester And just pretty famous person so when it comes to like lockpicking getting in places and Just lots of shenanigans. So there's a this is a YouTube link here easy enough to find videos and Once again a great Yes, even though will you you can look deviant up just check out some of the stuff talking about the stories Getting into places. You're not supposed to be just one of those really good listens From all that stuff. So it was cool to hear. I'm also on Dark Net Diaries But I just great coincidence. I did I definitely recommend checking out I'll throw a link to this You also link to this video and you can pivot from here For all the other videos that you may be interested in from him. I might reach out I think it might be fun to have him on the channel talking about How you get into these places and things like that his his Dark Net Diaries stories were great One of the things is he's got so many stories to tell like I don't need to cover any of the stuff that he already covered in Dark Net Diaries And by the way when he covered on Dark Net Diaries was not exactly what he covered at the keynote And we ended up going over time which was awesome because he just had more stories about physical penetration Testing how you get into different places. Elevator shenanigans was what he talked about on Dark Net Diaries He knows a lot about elevators Which is really interesting and makes for a fascinating talk Being a lot of places you're not supposed to be you know as a paid red team tester is also just really cool. I See Brett has joined said IT nation secure was awesome By the way, could someone Alaska say it early here in a video is Today we're doing some angels envy finish rye. I like to shout out to Jason slagle You'll definitely Maybe he'll pop in. I'm not sure if he's doing this or something else right now He's still at the resort. So he's got another Before he for he leaves there, but he turned me on to this I think the first time I'd seen it was probably with Jason and so now I've bought a couple bottles of that It's really particularly good Good rye Rye finished in Caribbean cast so I don't know whatever that means, right? I Think Willie how's the whiskey a fishing out I seen him post about that So, I don't know if he really watches these live streams or not But I know a few of you watch some of the willy house stuff Now I do have a few reviews that I'm trying to finish now that I'm done with all my travels I will be finishing up some reviews. So I have the Zima board. It's been running sure-nast for a little while. I gotta finish some testing with it That'll be done. I actually have an it's in a box kind of off to the side here I'm not gonna reach or grab it. It's a Cisco equipment. I seen a few posts people asking about the Cisco small business equipment I've been using it for a while. I realize I've had this stuff for a while And I've been just using it on and off in my lab and so I'll do an upcoming video on that Just kind of round out like what I think of it like it's functional But the I've already done the video on a Cisco dashboard and that was the big letdown is the fact that the Cisco dashboard It's just hot garbage So there's that I will release a review now a tech flow did a review on another company. We'll bring them up real quick here But it does Wi-Fi Let's see. This should be their tab. Oh I'll be covering this product as well and a Mixed on it right now. I think From a product standpoint, I think they've done a really good job and I'll be reviewing it in if you look up The company all to labs and you look up tech flow You'll notice that you another youtuber has done a review of it And I don't think they make a bad Wi-Fi device, but Right away my issue that I have is they don't have any type of self-hosted controller You have to use their control plane. They are cloud if you will to do this and it's kind of a you know Disappointing thing to me that companies are you know We need you to be locked into our ecosystem. Well, what happens if you a decide to change the pricing or B you don't survive The growth cycle that's required to keep a company well-funded and selling enough product to keep them going forward Then what happens to all the Wi-Fi devices I installed? This is my hang up with so many of these products is you know There's no they just don't want to put any type of local options on them anymore I mean cool, maybe the cloud option glued them together But there was a local option if the cloud goes away or something happens But yeah, that's not the way these work and it's it's one of those things where you know They had originally reached out to me and stated hey, we're really you know Gonna come in the market and we're gonna go ahead to have with ubiquity. I'm like awesome, but you know Where's that local host of controller? If not, you're just a ruby instant on so Yeah, that's kind of a challenge. I don't know where they're sold at. So there's there's some distributors for these hmm I'll have to see how they'll see at the parts are available yet because part of it too is I Want to do the review, but I don't want to do a long review if if they're not tangibly Something people can get because that's happened before and I've talked about with What do you the is that one another product in genius I've pointed out with ingenious. They've sent me more stuff that I reviewed because one of the problems is ingenious kills products I I did that one. I only did one of these I want to test the cloud thing and test their switch and I was like, okay, so I tested it the documentation was bad I didn't give it the best review, but they Sent it to me in six months after I did the review.  So it's kind of Yeah, I don't get it. So that's not kind of a concern I have with any of these new product companies that come out there is like How am I supposed to you know, if I don't feel confident? I don't tell anyone that they should either So I try to be like really You know be very honest with any of my reviews that hey These are all the risks that I see and as I see it with these particular Devices, you know, and the no local access is a big problem But nonetheless, I'll still check it out and review it There's gonna be people asking about it because they're starting to they're starting to market They they went straight to the influencer marketing They reached out to lots of different people in the creator space and say hey Test our equipment. So I know several people that have received these and so there'll be questions about it So I think it's like worth talking about I Just I don't I don't want them at all any measure like this is not me dog And I'm like like I think they're gonna fail But I just know what a challenge getting a product out to market is It should take only three months to perfect a product after six months. That's a no no Yeah, it's it's definitely Challenging from Peru awesome That you know, that's always When I met some of these events I met a lot of people from a lot of different places and I like it when right away the actually I knew I'm more from IT nations to cure But people that I meet that are even from Australia, which is crazy because I mean, that's that's a long trip to take To get all the way here from Australia. So that's definitely That's quite a hike a handful of people I met from the UK and you know, viewer is like that Florida's Decent trip to go from the UK to Florida. So definitely interesting Meeting people have traveled a lot further. It's like, I think I'm spending too much time in a plane just going You know that far like oh, it's a couple hours in a plane. I don't like it And I'm like, oh wait, they spent a lot more time than that in there But what else did I want to talk about today? I didn't have a really long list because I knew I'd be getting in really late So I was just kind of I wanted to make sure I did a live stream at least of some sort answer people's questions and things like that I don't have a ton of things though lined up I'm gonna go see if I had any notes that I made. I believe there is no feedback. So the People who I always say hey, you can email me at vlog Thursday. I don't think I have any New feedback since the last vlog Thursday. Nope, no one no one emailed me shockingly But hey, that's life now We have a few feedback because it's kind of a similar box I put them all into they all go into like one spot For the homelab show me and Jay, you know, we both kind of took some time off for that We're gonna be jumping right back into doing the homelab show So that's going to be next week for those of you that follow that side that hasn't happened in a couple weeks So life-size beer pong with cup with cup triggers that drunk and dunk the person nice Yeah, I Just look the email about also and they reached out I never took them up on it because I thought it was a fishing email. Yeah I mean, I Don't know how exciting they are, you know, that's that's the thing Cody like I don't think it's a terrible product from Like I think they did a really nice job on the UI. I a lot of it that I seen I was like, okay, this looks good But the fact that I have to use their cloud controller just bothers me So have you done anything about low-power virtualization for home? Yes, that is a Kyle at my office is working on it as a project. So we actually ordered a few different rise in small Systems and technically the Zima kind of falls in that category. But yeah, we're we are testing virtualization on a few I don't remember if they're made by Topton. There's small rise in boxes though And that is we've been at all while I've been away Kyle's been putting them together and reviewing them So yes, that is actually a video that's gonna be coming up We'll be talking about setting up those rise in boxes things we had to do to get them working There's not much but I want to make sure people are clear like hey Here's a box you can buy that Runs virtualization perfectly fine has a rise in plenty of excuse me plenty of power to run it and in terms of like compute power but not a lot of electrical power needed to run it, you know, it makes it efficient What's the next topic for the home lab show, you know, the topics are almost Momos but not always decided on Tuesday nights. So on Tuesday nights every Tuesday me and Jay hang out And when we hang out when we call it a little Tech Tuesday meeting We'll decide what we're going to do sometimes, you know two weeks in advance but right now We always have like a lot of ideas in a list and we figure out which one is the one we want to cover based on the Projects who might be working on whatever we think we can talk the most in-depth about because of a video or some project We're working on so it's it's not actually decided till the evening before and then we'll throw the notes together And then we scheduled the show I Did think about emailing you how much woodwood would chuck chuck and I would not have an answer Yeah, you watch check flows video on it. It's you know exactly like and he kind of glossed over He's like, oh cool. They give you a free cloud Well, the problem is the cloud isn't free the cloud You know, they got to peel off some money from the product that's being sold so they have to maintain a level of product being sold to pay for the cloud and if They run out of money and they got to call up some venture capital people. They're going. Hey, we need some money We want to keep this company going they're going charge for your cloud.  I'm currently in midst of learning how to do penetration testing How do I properly earn how to properly do a windows system administration?  He's got this which is great Well, is it this one here? It's the page you if you type in John Strand pay what you can so let me throw this up here, but John Strand pay what you can Big it lands you on this page here He's got classes on doing all the testing and things like that. So sock skills One oh just some really great stuff here So check out John Strand s t r a n d and if you're just getting started in there He's got some really awesome courses that'll kind of get you pointed in the right direction The biggest issue I have with SBC's virtualization is a lack of RAM for most including Nazima. Yes Single-board computers. They're not gonna be your best bet for virtualization Maybe running some Docker and things like that. Yes, they'd be good for that But once it virtualization is heavy when it comes to memory because you're virtualizing an entire operating system This is the advantage things like any type of containerization instead of virtualization has a more memory Efficient because it only needs to make a container and carve it out of the kernel and build these small containers that aren't emulating an entire operating system, but only within the Restrictions needed to run the application. So this is why you can run and you can build like your Kubernetes clusters out of pies J built one of those and they can be very efficient to run workloads and should distribute them across there So yeah, and it's I guess it might be a video series it's basically me just testing some stuff telling you how much wattage is used for those devices and Telling you what we've tested it with and how it works And you think cloud locked as a showstopper for sure. I mean we sell cloud stuff It's you know someone had seen me at the IT nation secure and I said well I thought you were an open-source guy Tom. What are you doing here? And I'm like look the reality is I The question comes up a lot for example Do you run? Syracotta or something like that for all your clients like that. That's not a tenable thing. That's not a manageable thing So yeah, there's cloud services. We have to use that we pay for now because I'm paying for the cloud service I'm not bothered by it. I'm I'm not getting I understand what I'm buying I'm not buying something that like here's this device that talks to our cloud It's free until it's not I'm paying for them as a service to administer the cloud to make the example. So Very different perspective on each of these So this Turn on my phone off But yeah, there's I don't like the cloud lock-in on a hardware device I I greatly dislike that I should say I hate any device that I can't just like I can't just use my router I can't just use my switch. I can't just use my access point. I have to tie it to a cloud. I Don't like that. Just one of those problems Pay what you can what's that again? This is for if you want to learn Some of the training so we understand that everyone can afford the hype. Let me make it bigger So it says we understand that not everyone can afford the high price for most quality stuff In our industry in order to help more people get started their implicit journey select a group of courses priced On a pay scale this gives students the opportunity to take hands-on cutting-edge courses by well-known names in the community and It's just I think this is so wonderful that they do this. These are really solid classes that can I mean I've I've been to two of John Strand's talks the dudes amazing like he's a top-notch speaker top-notch Educator if you go over watch him on John Hammond's channel, my friend was pulling up real quick on if you go over to we'll type in John Hammond Strand they did some videos together. They really dive into Pull it up over here. I Was still this video in here for you. I mean, this is really by the way just watch John Hammond. He is genuinely an awesome We saw some person but he's also really awesome cyber security researcher and has a passion for teaching people So I like follow his videos this particular video. I just do in the live stream here It's John strand and John Hammond talking together about the pay what you can but you can gather so much information If you're getting in tempo sec These are two like absolutely respectable people that don't sensationalize they teach they really bring forth really solid education on the topic If you have a client that needs SSL decryption are using Zeros or something else We are using Zeros. That's that is what we use for all of that Technically Zeros is managing things at a DNS level not exactly SSL inspection But when we need filtered end points for web filtering to be very Specific that is what we're using is Zeros TCM security Academy. I've not done TCM security. I can't speak to him But Cody's a Cody's a respected youtuber as well. So I'd actually listen to Cody's ways. He's got another suggestion out there Have you seen self hosted AV servers like he said curious what you think of this and security implication or not I don't know why I would want that AV is like the weakest link. It's something you kind of need you but like we use set in the one in Huntress now Huntress is Endpoint detection response EDR. So it's a more advanced system and Huntress is banned by Threat intelligence people 24-7 doing really smart things looking at intelligence data Which I want to do some new videos on how they do that because It's really interesting and then set in the one same thing You've got a we use what they call set in the one vigilance that gives us a team that monitors and then takes action on Different things they discover and investigations. That's what you need today in modern security. AV is just not gonna cut it You know, it's just not enough.  They're like you need an endpoint detection response They don't say you need antivirus. That's not enough.  Those are cool Lenovo and Dell has a couple HP has a couple But some of these really small form factor ones one the red they're nice cuz they're really small So they don't take a ball of space But you can find those for relatively inexpensive prices on eBay or even refurbished on Amazon There's there's deals to be had if at least I know for sure in the US markets probably in some of the other markets They make good home servers as well Afternoon what time is it there or just after midday here in the land on under it is 1042 at night here in good old Detroit I just flew in and you know, this was kind of cool. I'm gonna share a few photos over here Let me go back up to the top share this other tab but uh This was not a not the case in Florida, but definitely the case here in The Detroit area and of course if you look up New York air quality like some Twitter photos, you can see it's pretty wild but you can see we have some of the Fog rolling in if you will which is actually not fog. It's the smoke from the Canadian forest fires. So that is a thing that happened. This is what it was just before we were landing This is what it looked like. It was just kind of cool looking. It's wild Cool above the clouds like it's all I I took pictures because it was just so pretty out But as we got closer, you can see there's like the haze coming in there from the air quality, but yeah It was kind of got me. I don't those I landed like nine And now I'm here. I live relatively close to the airport in case you didn't gather that Project tiny micro was good if you're looking for those small 1l units. Say project tiny micro. Let's look that up real quick project tiny Someone has a tiny mini micro. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah serve the home has this. Well, they've done Share this tab instead Bring it up serve the home has an article on this introducing project tiny micro home lab revolution These are just neat Patrick is great. He's got a video on this Um, like I said, you can find these now. There's actually some dual network cards You can get for these too. So that way you can actually have a couple network interfaces I think there's there's ones where you can have the onboard and a dual card you can get in I believe that's what the dels correct me if i'm wrong on that But some of these do have the ability they're kind of small They're not they're not necessarily normal cards that go in there But then you can have something that has the multiple network interfaces Please don't unless you just have to please don't use usb network interfaces They're they're the source of a lot of forum posts where people are talking about all these network errors And you know, I learned right away what network interfaces. Oh, I plug these usb Uh dongles and and i'm like, well, that's probably why you're having so many network problems. Don't do that That's from serve of the home. Yep Ah Forest fires gober. Yes, they do Now we're we're our air is being polluted by the canadiens We're supposed to get some rain which is good because that'll put out the forest fires We don't we don't need that. We don't we've got We have the same problems.  Yeah, it doesn't go well All right. What are the other topics here because I'm I'm completely winging it here Let me pull up my little vlog list to be sure I talked about everything. I didn't really put much in here Yeah, because the topics last week, you know, the last email I got was the person, um, you know asking about the uh, DMark eight DMark. Why don't why is never set it up and that came up? I was at one of the uh Talks and that had come up of why don't people set it up? They go. It's not everybody's to-do list Which is exactly what hyde said when someone asked the question of why email didn't always have, um, some of the extra features set up and I'm like You know, your to-do list is driven by what's broken Not what you want to get done and sometimes when there's too much of one thing Then you're like, I'm gonna keep doing the things that are like stopping work from happening Not the ones like it's a good idea to do that. I should do that now. So Canadians had to be mean to others at least once in their life I think the uh, and Maybe cody because he's he's from there. Um, maybe cody can comment to this I always heard the Canadians like channeled all their meanness into their geese So they're they're not the most polite animals like Canadians are always polite, but the geese Not so much like they they're they're not known for their, um, they're nice temperament So Tell me let me know if uh, they can comment on that. I'm I don't know if it's true, but it feels true Uh, what else do we have here? You know, I should do some I'm back over on this topic again before I close the tab I should uh Do some of this I haven't done any courses in a while like I it's almost I'm just like reading stuff but I've Seen john strann talk and maybe I should just go grab and do one of these courses might be kind of fun sock core skills with john strann a complete list The other problem I have with the pay what you can I got money I can pay a lot does that maybe that's why I should just like Drop a lot in here. I don't know I don't I'll daydream about this I have some things I need to change and uh I have these geese or eagles. So, okay, kody We have we have a canadian confirming it. They they channel all their energy and uh, all their bad energy right into their geese Uh, before I wander off here, so I'm not gonna stay up too late I do have uh, at least some funny shenanigans which includes I'll I'll be working more With the people over at whoops wrong tab share this tab Um, msp geek on uh, which of course goose is kind of their mascot now goose is nice Goose is not a goose goose is Are mean but goose is not mean and oh by the way, uh, ashley's a fellow canadian there, so but nonetheless the um I'll be working more with msp geek on we have some community ideas Where we want to build some more engagement. They're already by the way, you could just join I just want to help promote their community more and engage with it They uh conference they put on was cool But besides the conference are a really good supportive community for those working in the it field And uh, I want I'm going to be working in the future with them on a few ideas We we talked a little bit about that when we were at the event. So it's definitely going to be kind of fun I was 20 years old when I learned you can configure linux server for ubikeo thinkation with uh pks 11. Yes All I have to say about the smoke from canada is sorry. That's the perfect answer Buy me a coffee icon for some os's websites. Uh, yes You should learn some penetration still someday. Yes one day I will take the time to learn at and be better at it. I'm very Like I get the concept. I've actually done. I actually participated in one ctf At a at a location with friends. I'm I was the least Hockey person there.  They got all they beat me in the end I was just excited to be first because I looked for obvious things because I'm not particularly good at it I don't know if I have time to um, I think pentesting is awesome. My friends that do it Friends that play capture flag. It's great. It's a great exercise. I just never play it. Um, never got into it. It doesn't I don't know. I don't feel good enough to do it So I just kind of skip over it. Maybe one day I'll go This is my new hobby for a little while and I'll dive into it But I don't know exactly when that will be when I find the time but That's uh, I don't know Maybe something I do the the gooch logo though The mascot of MSP Econ did make it up on stage with us. So there's that Um, you know, I can't show all these photos. There's anything here. I can't show. Oh, so if you want to know how You know, this is us, but if you want to know how we prepare Uh, what else is uh hiding behind the podium there? Here's not a close-up of it We actually at uh, and this is definitely a Jason Slagle thing is um Bringing out a few drinks.  I have a bunch of g5s only one g4 pro You know, I don't spend as much time anymore with the unify stuff So I'll let the kind of dig into that and look at the specs on them when unify was really Struggling if you will to keep inventory up We just didn't sell much of them and we really doubled down on synology. We have sold a lot I mean a absolute ton of synology units lately and it's for lots of surveillance systems It's such a good platform. It works so well. There's so many different types of cameras and it's available And that means I'm not spending as much time with ubiquity stuff I want to do a synology versus ubiquity ubiquity. He's been increasing the Features they keep updating the software. I think they're doing a nice job And I think it's a good platform But that availability and the lack of flexibility compared to the synology means I don't spend as much time with it anymore as they used to What is your live logs the first time watching I try to do them on thursdays I for the last three weeks I've been traveling and because I've been traveling But I I've come home every thursday for my travels. I'm home for the weekend and I travel again So I've been pushing them to a little bit later But that's I'm finally done traveling. So they usually are 4 p.m. Eastern standard time, but I might move them to nighttime I don't know. I seem to have a bigger audience when I have them during the day But I'm generally I try to do them around three or four o'clock eastern standard time every I do them every thursday It's it's just about when I'm traveling it I shift the time around a bit Hopefully don't get too much more smoke. I don't have to do it.  Hey, we can just you know, you can google this, but if we look for Twitter is such a fun place to do this and I see Air or smoke, you know, I gotta share this tab Make sure it's nothing inappropriate There we go. Here's some pictures. These are not inappropriate. I can share these ones It's funny hashtags like it uh people doing some inappropriate other things they do with it, but It's like really bad. This is new york has got that whole weird like it's It's a sepia. I think it'd be the color But yeah, uh, things are things are rough over there. They have it much worse than we do here in detroit Sometimes not being extra and having a fresh eyes to strength the team sometimes acts silly question Silly question may prompt creative solutions. Yes Tom just scanning beyond the range of the ctf and finding a flag and are like, well, that's beyond the range I'm like, well, there's a few ip's there and I'm like I found a flag Something it was a left open directory Directory traversal on some apache server and there's a flag right there. I'm like it's dumb, but it's in the list It's like it's a valid flag Well, you like the later time better because it never complex to work fair enough Yeah, you know the interesting thing maybe I should rotate when my videos are because it's going to be a different audience The audience I get during the day It may not be the same audience I get if I do at night. So maybe I'll start rotating back and forth I'll do like a morning one and I'll do an afternoon one then I'll do a not all the same day like every other week I'll rotate doing three live streams a day at some point I got work to do and I would definitely cut into my video time to start doing that You know, I don't I like the live streams at night though because I don't I'm at the end of my day I I have realized for myself my most creative time not is not necessarily After 10 p.m. Or 11 p.m. At night Maybe I'll do some functional things, but I'm not always doing the creative things. I'm Feel like I'm the most creative or most productive when I wake up in the mornings Most of my videos are actually recorded earlier in the day. That's why they get it after and release when I You'll hear me say like this was recorded on such and such date and you're like, hey, that's today But yeah, I woke up early I jumped right in start putting the video together and then I do the editing work and then boom I get the release done before the end of the day when I do a video You can do multiple streams a week. You already have the java show wednesday morning So you see to pick a new time slot per my evening and per my daytime Yeah, we have a few more live streams. They're fun. If I if I keep them in half hour chunks I don't know Does it annoy people to do a bunch of live streams? I don't know like I don't want to just pepper it with live streams because they're um Not it's more I feel like they're more rambly. I'm not Scripting this concisely where I go. We're gonna walk you through a tutorial on how to do this or how to do that I feel like I'm just kind of babbling on about things and I don't know. I mean, I have fun doing it I love the interaction. I love answering everybody's questions. I don't know if I want to do that all the time Two live streams a week seems pretty good Grab a jink and enjoy name your poison. Yeah Funny funny thing in unify and a g4 has one gig rg45 g4 has 100 mega g4. I did not Yeah, that's Something that confuses people sometimes but when you think about it You don't need a one gig internet connection to watch netflix at 4k. You can do it with a much slower connection There's a lot of people that make the assumption or the reach or you know, probably just assume because they'd not really Put the math together on it going. Oh, that's weird. Why doesn't the camera only have a hundred meg connection? Because that's all it needed Yes, the problem you're plus you're taking away time for your son and pizza kind of unfair to your family Uh, the family's asleep right now. My son's asleep. My wife's asleep. So Well, my my other kids may not be asleep. Um, they may be doing other things But none of my other kids live here anymore. There's five of them all together for anyone wondering But marcus is my youngest and he's still he still lives here with me The other ones are older and they all have their own houses and moved out. They all live in the area though actually Here's a guessing game Type the number. How many grandkids do you think tom has? I think we brought this up before maybe but that is a thing Help solve a discussion. Is radius a dying technology? I'm so favorite. What radius is not a dying technology I we see a lot of radius servers. It's still popular. I don't know. I I would say Depends on where you are and what your use cases are. There's obviously a lot of people tying things over to just straight up active directory integrations But radius servers are still there. LDAP is we We even just got another uh, we have to meet with them soon. We have a client They has a big project where we're going to be setting up a very large enterprise with a bunch of LDAP and things like that So it all depends on where you are. What niche it's like when people tell me local servers are dead I'm like, that's weird. I seem to be keep I keep installing lots of them I I seem to install over half a million dollars of them in the last few months But I keep hearing they're gone like go ahead Tell me more about this cloud that is completely destroying the local server market that doesn't exist anymore. I'm just like It's just uh, yeah, it's kind of strange Five five is the number. I see the number here five grandkids All I know is after the last one once it got to five. I realize why my grandpa just had nicknames for all of us You over there number four Am I old enough for grandkids? Yes Yes, I thank you for the kind words to think that this gray May have just happened at a young age Or the fact that I can stay up past 10 o'clock or it's actually 11 o'clock p.m. Here in eastern standard time. So I need more than one gig upstream for cloud backups that stream up all this online gaming. Yeah Bandwidth we are slowly gaining more of it, but never at the rate we want I was reminiscing with some people and friends. Maybe I should do oh by the way I I I did say I will put together and Feel free to ask any questions right now if you're curious, but I will put together how tom got where he is and That's going to be kind of a fun talk The at least I mean I want to make it fun. I want to make it engaging But I also want to completely preface that of like how I got where I'm at in my tech career that it's I feel like it's a self-serving thing, but a lot of people have asked for it. So I'm just going to put it to a video I'm going to keep it brief, but kind of walk through. How did I get started in tech? How did I go through and get my first shops? How did I Start my business and then kind of walk people through They were just kind of a timeline for anyone curious of like how did tom get where he is sitting in A basement talking to a camera and answering questions on a live stream like how'd that happen? Um, I have no problem talking about it I always feel those videos because they're not tutorials are not educating But I think there's maybe some value I'm personally always curious about people's path when I was at it nation Meeting with people like oh, you know, how'd you get here? What you used to do and those are always conversations that I'm having there are just a whole lot of fun and You know, I I just don't like to put content that doesn't necessarily like I try to focus on how does it help people But a lot of people told me I had a few people come up and say hey, I'd be curious and watching a video like that I'm like, okay, maybe I'll put something together. So, you know Fun might be a fun topic Radius servers are amazing music for centralized users network devices. So we don't need to create them on every device. Yes After a lifetime in it it's the camera makes me look young 30s Oh, let's see You walked, uh, I missed the context there.  Yeah, I mean It's for the small offices. Yeah, they don't really need the on-prem server But then again, a lot of them never really had much in terms of server They for a little while some companies might run like this mic Microsoft small business servers and things like that but That was fading away. It was never like a big thing Now it's like, yeah, you just do some shared files and share them in google docs or Microsoft Office 365 and you're good But there's still a whole lot of servers in there Radius for upgraded horizon environment. Okay I'm pretty sure my google fiber off two gigs symmetric. Nice I don't think we have two gigs symmetric, uh In an affordable manner available where I'm at not not for residential anyways Uh each great here for a crash system. Oh man. Oh, no, I I I've crashed a few since I've dealt with enough crash system I don't there's not that many great Okay The guy that's sitting up to a favor windows desktop login. No, I'm not doing that duo Well, that's how I'm doing it use duo because Microsoft doesn't care about 2fa login duo does it? There's a few other companies that do it. Um, we use duo for people who absolutely need 2fa on the desktop You can also do it. Um, if you do like the azure stuff, but I don't I don't know maybe Not me. Maybe one of my other staff will do some Microsoft videos. I'm a I'm not going to do Microsoft videos I'm not that good at it. It's not my specialty. It's not where I spend my time. So maybe I'll bring one of my staff in there Oh, you walk to the desk. That's how you got here Yes, yes Google fiber two gigs to one gig up. Okay I think we can get a two five and ten residential here the uh The recently added to plan think more where where is there that you're getting that fast? That's great that you have it Just curious where there is Ah, yes You be keys to your family Ah, yeah ATT fiber 10 gig for 250 uh month in my house when having a hard time coming a reason to upgrade from one gig for 80 a month. Yeah, its price is a thing I used to for a piece in front of those logins doesn't anything integrate with all that by use to a cool Uh eastern washington. Okay. They really got some fast speed out there. That is great What is your daily driver computer? And um So I have I don't know Well, I have two I have a laptop that I forgot what model it is. I it's a dell I don't think much about it though It's not really a daily driver. It's like when I travel, uh, the system I'm on right now is I'll just pull this up because it's easier Present share screen or is that? uh Probably that there we go How do I make If I shrink this I think it gets oh I need to make it about that big There this is the system I use which is nothing not special. It's just a Rise in 9 3900x. It's a custom built system and I have a g-force 30 60 in here. So nothing particularly Exciting it's a just custom built computer. It's the one that I use for all my editing and stuff like that too. So I'm sure biggest it wonder ever moved a whole v-lan from a switch thinking we're on a specific port this guy has I I blew a fuse and blew up a bench. So that's among them I I you know, let me see if I can pull up a picture And I don't have a picture of me actually doing it because this happened in the 90s but uh old computer case Gotta find the old computer case and there's a thing I want to point out inside these if I can find a picture of it Where would be the old This is actually what gets funny. I say old computer case But what I see here what is considered old apparently by a google image search is not as old Is I would like so old computer case power And these these are still not as old as the one I was working on But I want to point out something that people may not recognize and that is going to be The fact that the power supplies did not have the old momentary context.   I've done in tech in there. So Hardware and software I meant to write. Yeah. Oh hardware and software. Um pop o s which also by the way if you can tell This is all Linux.  Okay. We have someone who understands what these are There's the uh I want to find an image of this I'm trying to find like to show people like how it gives you hope that you could get the screwdriver between there But it doesn't fit. Well, it was fit. It's like I kept thinking like I played that a little the game You play surgery and things like that. You're like, yeah, I could do that. But you know that I screwed it all up First computer I worked on one of the student tech in college is a brand new g3 mac That was shipped with a set for 220 instead of 110 and killed it instantly. Whoo Yeah, I got old xt powers flies. Thank you so much on the garage Blunders I rebooted server during business hours that happened. Yes. I did I did that to my own company A couple of I did that like 2018 I rebooted I was like I updated the wrong true nas and rebooted it while all the virtual machines were attached to it as a Storage target. So that was bad Ah, yes, like discharging a flyback that too as uh That's 2007 Tom. I had electronics computer repair store back in 2007. So Somewhere I will dig up a picture of that. I'll throw those pictures in right that's actually one things I want to do I mean I started my tech career all the way back in 1995 And I do have some photos going back all the way to 1995 So I'll throw those in kind of to walk through the journey of things That makes it kind of fun like hey, I here's me doing this thing way back in 2000 whatever Matter of fact, I will make sure I throw in a picture Of my first computer now, I don't have actual picture of my first computer But I have pictures of The computer I had Where's a good one? Here's a good one Let's share this picture. Many of you may know this type of computer There you go. That's what got me started. This was the first time my hands were on a keyboard Was one radio check. I didn't buy these when they came out I did not grew up with that kind of money. These were expensive But when radio check put these on clearance because they weren't popular anymore That's when I got into it and it was pretty cool. I think I got that would have been I Don't remember if I had to look up the years on that I got to pull out together. I had like a little I can defer and figure some of that out. So In recognition of PDUs that can send SAP data monitor using logging server um Not in particular I can't think of one off the top of my head right now There's a lot of them do it. I just one particular model doesn't come in my head PSU has a huge orange flip switch on the side. Those are me Yeah, I like the kerchunk those old power supplies name when you flip them. They went click The old IBMs had those. I thought they were really neat Technically, I had my first computer. I actually killed it bought another last year years later. Awesome Thinkpad 380d See old crt's bringing back memories of degaussing sony transience. Yes, I degaussed a lot of systems Yep, Cocoa 3 I did not ever have a pdp 11 Anyone else start with cpm base. So I didn't start with a cpm But I was able to Mess with a cpm. I had a friend whose mom had one and that was I was fascinated by it You know, I was young but I always got in trouble for touching it Tierra's 80s a lot of people started there Yeah, the feedback was great on those I need a good pdo ups are to find a good widely available model all random one-off models And they want way too much or remove the battery trash making them useless. Yeah 886 in high school technically. I just wanted the cart that came with it three dollars of garage sale First computer is a clone of an IBM 51 50 nice monochrome monitors green and yellow. Yeah, the um trs 80 was cool. I Really had to push the limits of it because it didn't do what I wanted it to do And that's what got me more into a deeper understanding of how they work because I used to have to use peak and poke To manipulate different registers and I would spend time digging around through books That would tell me what each register did or I would scan through registers To try and figure out. Oh, this is where I can peak at the input for the joystick And then I could make the joystick then control a character I did for a game And I actually ended up doing a drawing program Where I could draw and erase things and I did all with peak and poke To tell it where to put the memory and the little sprites switch the screen modes to different ones It was a really great learning back then Four colors green black orange black white all tech. Uh, yeah many hours in space invaders.  It's what that's one of the youtube things I like watching is people who cover some of these retro things It's just a lot of fun to watch them go I so these are I'm gonna share this to have I had these books like this your color computer too Getting started with basic like I read this book cover to cover. I do not have it anymore But man, I would just I thumbed through that book so much. It was uh It was my guide to life at the time was so fascinating Radio shack just like dumped all this when they were getting rid of this because like the newer IBMs and they were getting into the tandy 1000s. They're like tier s80 This is old stuff and I'll never forget the guy's name. He was daryl daryl would save all the stuff they were like going to get rid of for little of nothing and He would call my mom and my mom would drive me all the way out to this particular radio shack Where daryl would have the stuff setting and sell to me for Really cheap kids these days don't even have to use a file browser Remember cga Vic 20 on loan from a teacher wasn't a bag to go down. Yeah, there was there's all kinds of neat stuff Because actually there was the cocoa 3 And then I found in a trash I think someone threw thrown out one of these I had this one too This was the one that was uh I had but this one didn't last long it ended up dying on me. I took it apart and fixed something on it to get it working I don't know what I had to do to make it work But I this one was so hard to type on this keyboard was terrible. It was just really really bad keyboard Yeah, I learned basic on the color key Thing I never learned os not I never got good at os 9. I had os 9 as well, but I never really Um, I didn't I didn't have a manual as I just poked at it and didn't completely understand it Because none of the documentation I had was for os 9 Which I was os 9 never popular for those let me look that up. I don't know I Eventually both of the my other one died too, and then I couldn't I didn't have a computer for years um That was kind of how it ended until I got back into it It's gotta be someone who has a history of it Oh, there is I like this Exploring 1984 os 9 and a 64 k t r s 80 color computer part one Oh, man, you know what I'm gonna do when I'm done with this live stream. I'm gonna read all of this Yeah, when someone says what's tom doing after the live stream He's just reading a bunch of old books on os 9 because that's a hobby Sinclair's the 80. Yeah I love this old stuff There's such a joy. I have for a lot of it I wouldn't say kids these days The reality is there's never been any more than a small subset of people who want to do something Is in depth as sit at the terminal and really I mean how many people want to take the time to use peak and poke to pull through Memory registers so you could figure out where to put sprites on the screen or how to read an input of a joystick It's just not something I would expect That people should know But for those that have the passion I like that the opportunity was there I was lucky enough in Being in the right place at the right time to be able to have access to these things you know because radio checks clearancing them and I was able to get a bunch of books and I was Does I had the absolute Desire and curiosity to do it and I had the passion that pushed me said, yeah This is what I want to do is sit and play with these things I know not everybody wants to do that now the the people on this live stream Who are listening to me babble on about something that are more likely to be the people who share that same passion I do with it, which is awesome But I don't ever like to say like it's a generalization. Yeah, I don't know people because there's some really talented people out there that are equally passionate and are also like 18 years old 15 years old and able to do this Some the goal is to get them not to be Like lapses and hacking things in a terrible way, but to actually apply it in a more creative and fun way But if you go to big hacking events, I mean there's plenty of young people there that are absolutely killing it and doing it But the average person never was that deeply interested in these things Which reminds you I used to send uh use the net send command to spam every pc in school district in high school Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah the shenanigans there for sure Huge variety systems back then the bbs experiment was uh was on tandy model 100. Yeah the bbs stuff back in the day Oh, yeah, the cirrix processors. Yes. Uh, I worked at a computer store and we used to sell a little cirrix processors What got me liking the journals the games you had access terminal tinkering was so much fun Half like two uh was fun to break in and new creative ways. Absolutely Oh, there's there. Trust me.  I mean he's granted he does a lot with these single board computers This is raspberry pi, but there's plenty of people out there still trail Trailblazing and doing really fun and interesting things I You if you feel like you're in a spot where you don't see those people just move to a different spot You just have to figure out whether they're hacking conferences One of the reasons I still love them today is that's where you find the people doing the next level of innovation Doing something really interesting the hardware hackers the people who are in the maker spaces They're really building some cool things today Uh see our see why r ix cpu Pull these up because I wanted to see some of these. This is the one I remember the folks that the shares have instead The dx2 that was the one that I remember selling when I worked at I worked at a computer store I used to work computer trade shows and we'd sell stuff and Yeah, the six cirrix 6x86. They they were such a cool company for a while They were just doing doing some neat stuff Heat sink is required It wasn't implied back then But the cirrix chips are pretty cool. They they made some neat stuff back in the day I'm sure there's probably I I remember watching some in history of what happened to them, but yeah The dx4 overdrives the overdrive processors That's something a lot of people maybe hadn't seen if you're if you're not in my age and weren't working in there so it's it's uh This the overdrives. Yeah These overdrive cpus are cool It was it was just so different back then And look there's an entire uh There's a video on it. So Yeah between reading the uh, where'd it go Between reading this which is now in my bookmarks and Watching the history of the overdrive cpu. I got plenty to do tonight. I'm not going to bed for a little while Let's see Oh and the math co-processors out in there for sure I have a citrix uh 586 sitting next to me. No idea if it still works. Uh, it's been in carbure for 15 years. Wow It's l-penium slot. Well, it is 1130 So I am going to go to bed or so I'm gonna go watch some tv until I pass out I think this will do which I say tv but technically it's just youtube on my tv Watching about old processors because that feels like what I want to do right now Thank you for everyone who joined. I I need to stop drinking. I need to lay down and watch some, uh, classic you know old school processor stuff And It's just great having all of you. I see there's 60 of you on on this here. Thank you for joining Leave comments email vlog thursday at loren systems.com if you got questions, I like answering them here on the show I don't know if I'll keep I'll figure out my rotation if I want to do some of these at night Keep doing during the day at four o'clock. I'm not traveling for at least Outside of like recreational traveling. I don't have any more events that I'm gonna be at anytime soon Besides gherkan, but there'll probably be a few more.  Just so people are clear This is called Angels and me so if anyone's curious what tom is drinking tonight. Usually it's jack. I'm all out of jack And I got this so it's pretty good All right, thanks everyone and take care


Howdy how's it going? My name's DavyChappy and it's time to get back into the wonderful world of the Warlock by studying all the things that makes their magic special, the invocations. For this list, I'm not going to be pulling out Davy's Davy meter because I think that these invocations are all pretty good and I want to talk a little bit more about each individual choice and let you, the player, decide the usefulness for yourself. Warlocks, as you may have heard in my Warlock video, are the most customizable class Indie and D-bar none and the majority of that is due to the sheer amount of invocations that you can choose from in the various ways that you can mix and match them. So putting them on a scale of what is good and what is not good is silly because Warlocks will theme themselves based off of an idea and then build their invocations based off of that. So you're not going to want to listen to what I say anyway. As always remember that the majority of this is just my opinion. So if you feel like your patron Dav's not giving your invocation the dividends it deserves then feel free to use your magical stolen power however you'd like. But with that out of the way, let's begin. Agonizing Blast. So this invocation is the centerpiece of Warlocks who want to dump everything they can to Eldritch Blast which makes sense given that it's like the best damaging cantrip in the world. It's sort of used slowly on but once you reach levels where you're blasting more than once a turn that flat damage really starts to add up. Armor of Shadows. Taking this gives you armor that is just inherently better than all the base light armor and you have it on forever. If you're not a hex blade take this unless you somehow get armor that has bonuses equalling or exceeding 13 plus decks. And if you are a hex blade consider whether or not it's worth investing in invocation and a lot more ability score improvements to raise your decks or if it would just be better to sink the money into half plate and accept that a max decks hex plate would get exactly one more AC than you. It is actually a legitimate decision to make. Ascendant Step. You'll float too. I really like invocations that work all the time so always remember that you never really have to stop floating. Aspect of the Moon. To be honest the DM will hate you if you take this invocation and will find ways to work around it anyway so this ability is really just for flavoring or for really light activity anyway. Beast Speech. Talking to animals is fun and being able to do it all the time can potentially give you spies and every tree branch. Beguiling Influence. Personally I think that if you need these proficiencies you would have already gotten them in the first place but hey maybe you just want to be that guy that uses your super awesome invocations lots to get even more proficiencies. Bewitching Whispers. So you can either compel someone towards or away from you but you can only do it once per long rest so I just I don't see this being as useful as the always on invocations. Book of Ancient Secrets. So this is the straight upgrade to the Pact of the Tome and so it is very very useful. Despite popular belief warlocks don't start with ritual casting so being able to take literally every ritual spell from every class not only frees up your spell slots like nobody's business but also means that you could potentially have more flexibility than the wizard. Chains of Carcery. An at will hold person understanding that hold person is a phenomenal spell is ridiculous but you can't use it on the same creature twice and it only works on Celestials fiends or elementals so fights against them will make you god tier and fights against other things will have no use for this. Cloak of Flies. So if you want proficiency and intimidation you can find it other ways but a never ending aura of constant damage is relatively useful especially since you don't really need to get rid of it unless you're trying to keep up appearances so this one really comes down to personal preference. Devil's Sight. Dark Vision is always great for those races without it but being able to see through magical darkness is a feat that very very few people can get. So this is one of those top pick invocations. Dreadful Word.  Just remember that it only comes back during a long rest which is a tad annoying. Eldritch Sight. You can see magic just in general. It's sort of crazy. Remember that it can't go through most walls so you really are just using your eyes most of the time. Eldritch Smite. It's like the Paladin Smite but it's got a knockdown effect and it definitely can't be used as often as the Paladins can.  Eldritch Spear. In the open this means that you can be completely safe from almost all forms of combat and still be useful. You can find areas like caves, knock out all the lights and then take superior dark vision somehow to hit people from further away than they can even see you. Eyes of the Roomkeeper. Not only will the DM hate you but now you can talk to any creature no matter the language so long as they write everything down and you yourself don't have anything to say. Fiendish Vigor. It's only five to nine a blade of hit points but since you can use it whenever you want as long as you don't stick your dick out in front of every bad guy you see you can tank the first hit sent your way without actually getting hurt. And if you start to get low on actual health then you just have to take every turn after you get hit to recast the spell and you'll still be able to contribute. Gaze of Two Minds. You know some people take familiar for this sort of thing however in this case the versatility and the almost infinite range can make it a far superior choice as long as you're willing to give up an invocation for it. Ghostly Gaze. What bothers me is that this invocation implies that you can see ghosts but you cannot actually see ghosts. Nevertheless being able to see through solid objects with your new Biakagon means that you can get the drop on whatever is hiding behind the next door or you could act like a 13 year old with x-ray glasses. Gift of the Depths. Useful for underwater campaigns but largely unuseful for any other scenario. This one is definitely an invocation that you take when you need it and switched out when you don't anymore. Gift of the Everliving Ones. Very useful if you like getting healed which hopefully everyone does since you're familiar should never be far behind as long as it hasn't been dunked on you'll make a lot of use out of this invocation and the longevity that this has paired with fiendish vigor is downright stupid. Grasp of Hadar. Useful for hex blades but I'm not sure why other warlock archetypes would really want someone to get closer to them. Keep in mind though that you don't have to pull people in so this still has good opportunistic value. Improved Pact Weapon. Really if you have Pact of the Blade this just gives you a free plus one magic item that can shape shift into almost any weapon you want so why in the world wouldn't you take it? Lance of Lethargy. This is my favorite of the movement invocations for Eldritch Blast since whether someone is running away from you or towards you reducing their speed by 10 feet is usually just as good as pushing or pulling them the same amount so this just covers all the bases in one invocation. Life Drinker. Extra damage for your bladed weapon which coupled with your strength or dex mod makes hitting people with your big stick an actually viable option later down the line. I guess it makes up for the problem of not being able to hit a super amount of times like with the Eldritch Blast. Maddening Hicks. It's like the Ranger Slayer ability. Considering that there's really no penalty to spamming this all the time outside of spending your bonus actions it looks like it's just free damage. Mask of Many Faces.  The utility of being able to effectively shape shift whenever you want should go completely unspoken. Master of Myriad Forms. The evolution of Mask of Many Faces. Once you hit level 15 consider trading out the mask for the master since it does a lot of what you would probably want many faces for anyway but keep in mind that Mask of Many Faces still creates a new illusion of what you're wearing so it might be worth it to stick to it anyway. Minions of Chaos. Be very careful about casting the spell that this invocation gives. If your concentration breaks then you could very well be damning your party right then and there. It's why I don't put much stock into a lot of conjuration spells. Myer the Mind. Slow is one of the best spells in the game and it's really shocking that so many people don't talk about it.  Seriously just don't lose concentration and you will be a king. Misty Visions. With this invocation you can do all the things that people think minor illusion can do like move the image or actually make a fully sized person. That alone makes this a useful spell. One with the shadows. With this invocation you can do all the things that people think rogues can do like actually turn invisible just because they press themselves up to a shady wall. Good for quick getaways and infiltration quests. Otherworldly Leap. The jump spell has two specific of an application to be picked up instead of any of the other spells on your spell list. This invocation had the chance to make jump a pretty interesting spell. Instead now I have to contend with being able to cast levitate all I want being able to speak with dead people or being able to jump around a bit. Relentless Hex. This choice will see good use in Hexblades who can use the invocation to cover the gap between them and their targets. But other classes won't see as much traction since why do you even want to get close to your opponent when you could just not do that and cast Eldritch Blast from 300 feet away? Repelling Blast. Same opinion as Grasp of Fadar. Yes, you could take this to push people away which is useful in its own right but generally slowing people down with Lance of Lethargy will help you a bit more unless you specifically need to push someone around somewhere. Sculptor of Flesh. Polymorph is a really useful spell. Just be wary of the fact that you can only use it once before you need to take a long rest.  Shroud of Shadow. The next step up from one with the shadows, if you have that invocation immediately trade it out for this one because this does everything that can do and more. Sign of Ill-Omen. It's useful and all, but like I said before, be careful that you're not about to lose your concentration right away or you'll be a sad warlock. Thief of Five Fates. Bane continues to be a really useful spell. Just don't get hit. Thirsting Blade. If you took Pact of the Blade, let's just be honest, you're gonna take this feature as well. It literally acts as a second melee attack that literally all of the melee fighters get at 5th level which for some reason makes me chuckle whenever I see it in invocation form. Tomb of Levistus. It'll save you in a pinch. Some people say that the spell is lame because it takes away your next turn, but to them I say that you will lose a lot more turns if you're dead. Also, keep in mind that fire damage of vulnerability only comes into effect after the initial damage.  Trickster's Escape. I personally don't think that this invocation is useful enough to warrant taking a long rest to get it back. Maybe a short rest, but I don't see myself getting trapped often enough to believe that dedicating one of my 8 precious slots into it will be totally worth it. Visions of Distant Realms. You get Gaara's weird sand-eye thing. It's really useful for spying on people. It means that you will never ever get trapped by a trap again. Voice of the Chain Master. It basically gives you infinite range on that whole perceive through your familiar senses that the fine familiar spell does and if you pick an imp which can turn invisible, you in essence get the visions of the distant realm's ability at first level instead of 15, with the only downside being that your actual body still has to not do anything while you're using your familiar sight. Whispers of the grave. You can talk to dead people. It makes interrogations real easy. Witch Sight. Very niche. When it's useful, it's really useful. When it's not really useful, it's completely useless for the vast majority of the time. Still, some people like seeing invisible creatures all the time. But that'll about do it.

Tight regulation of retro transposins such as endogenous retroviruses, ERVs, is essential for genome and transcriptome integrity. Here, the authors show that the ATPase function of the chromatin remodellus Markad1 facilitates the binding of KAP1 to ERVs and is required for their repression in embryonic stem cells.

If you're everyone sure women like I am I'm 52 this week if you're that age of 40 anything like that and you find that wearing highlighter or glowing makeup kind of will show up your texture I'm gonna show you what I do to still love my glowing makeup my highlighters and all that but not show any texture or anything that makes you look older so if you're new to my channel special welcome to you and I invite you to please subscribe and don't forget to hit the bell icon that always is helpful because you'll be notified of any future videos that I might upload and then also everybody if you wouldn't mind please giving this video a thumbs up it does help me out a lot and thank you all so much for being here with me today so let's get into the application of what I do on my face in order to make it look glowy not greasy not textured right now okay so for the demonstration what we're gonna do is we're gonna do one half with all the glowy makeup on it and the other half we're just gonna leave as it is but I did put down a mattifying powder on my skin in order for it to look a little bit more mattified and so you can see the stark difference in this look so where we're gonna start first is with the eyes the eyes are really a place that you might not think about having glowy dewy looks on but when you put on a bright look onto your eye then you're gonna find that your eyes will pop and they'll stand out more there will be more light shown to them and so they will look brighter you'll look you more youthful with that and the first product that I'm going to use is one that we probably all have this is the essence pure nude highlighter and this is just the original and I find that this is such a good product to put on my eyelids because it doesn't have a ton of metallic or a ton of shimmer but it still shows up a lot of brightness now I'm just gonna put this on with my finger it deposits a little bit more product and I just feel like I get a little bit more control when I'm doing this kind of thing and so what's nice about this kind of a product is that it's going to be bright without any shimmer without any showing up any extra texture on our eyelids if you have crepey eyelids then the ones that are metallic sometimes really show up a lot of texture across your eyes so you can see the difference in what the two are and this one is already showing up a lot brighter now that looks like a very soft peach when it's in the pan it's more along the lines of a soft beige so between the two eyes you can already tell a difference now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take the pixie and range loves palette I love this palette you guys when it came to me it was broken but I was able to press it back in there but this palette is so good for having shimmery glass like products in it very highlighting products with absolutely no glitter in it whatsoever so I'm gonna go into this color right here which is these are supposed to be along here at the eyeshadow colors and then these are the highlighters so I'm just taking a small paddle brush and I'm just going into that first color that is along the lines of the same color as what I have here started so I'm gonna go and I'm gonna tap that off and then I'm gonna go into the inner corner here and bring a bunch of light into that inner corner right there and then I'm just going to very gently just kind of meld it with that upper color so it's blended just a bit so we have brightness on the lid without a lot of metallic but in the corner we're gonna put metallic so can you already see how that eye is just coming to life now I'm going to switch brushes and I'm gonna use this is a Sigma pencil brush I will make sure I list it down below it's a little bit softer of a pencil brush so I'm gonna go down into that same color in the Rachel's palette again and this time I'm gonna bring a little bit of light right here at the top of the brow so I am not putting a ton there but I want just a tiny bit of it to be able to just show off where the high point of that brow is so look at the two eyes now that is all I'm gonna do on the eyes today but take a look at them you can really see that this one looks more open it looks more alive it looks more like it's the focal point of your look than this I would without having any sort of glowing or dewy or highlighting product on it so the next thing I'm gonna do is I'm going to bring some light to my cheeks now a lot of people like to do highlight all over the place I particularly want to just stay on my cheeks because if I do highlight everywhere and that beaming highlight I'm gonna find that I do show up a little bit more of my pores or a little bit more texture on my face so I'm gonna go into the color that is in the Rachel's palette and it's this color right here and this is called clutch and I'm just using a very light fan brush I have not found this fan brush again however Sonya cash it has one that is almost exactly like it and I'll make sure that I link it for you so I'm gonna turn my cheek so you can see and all I'm gonna do is just put this light or this highlighter right there on the cheek I'm not coming down with it onto the cheek so that it doesn't engulf my whole entire look I'm just putting it right there on the cheek so actually when you look forward you're not gonna see this too much on the forward look but when that cheek gets turned or when somebody is looking at you from the side it looks very dewy very glowy so I do like that now I also like let me move my my straps here a little bit I also like to put a little bit of glow right here on my collarbone just a little bit to catch that light especially when I'm wearing something that strapless like this you can do it on your shoulders too if you want to it's just personal choice on there because you're not gonna show up any texture on this area at all so the next glowing thing I want to do is my lips so I have diamond milk from vent Fenty Beauty and I already have a gloss on my lips but what I'm gonna do with this because it has a little bit of shimmer sheen to it I'm gonna just pop this right in the middle of my lips so you can see now I'm not gonna be able to do just one half a lip I guess I could have done one one half a lip but you can see how pretty that does and how much that makes that lip just look glowy and dewy and it's a beautiful look immediately just makes those lips look more plump and more glowy so I love that now we're gonna go in with the Milani prep set and glow and this is a brush that I got a long time ago on one of the Ulta sales and it is an it brush for Ulta and I'm just going to pick up quite a bit of this because what I want to do with this is I want to make that dusting across the areas where the younger girls would normally put a very high highlight I just want a very soft one you know they do the whole nose thing I don't do that but I do come down the nose with one sweep and then I will go across the chin just a little bit and then across the forehead just a little bit and what that's going to do is that's going to pick up that light just ever so slightly in order for it to be a little bit glowing a little bit dewy now I do I have mentioned a million times in my videos the Lancome absolute powder this lasts a very very long time it is a beautiful beautiful powder I will put just a tiny bit of it on this side just to show you on top of that that you can get a little bit more of a glow with a color this one has a little bit of a pink color whereas the Milani has just kind of a straight translucent color so we're just going to kind of just dust this very lightly again across the side okay and then as a finishing I'm just going to spray this side with my luminizing spray from flower beauty that I like so much I recently had this in a video as well I want to make sure that I only get it on this side okay so that's dried down now I just want you guys to look straight on this is this side without this is this side with the glowing makeup on it doesn't look greasy it doesn't look cakey there's no no texture showing on the makeup now when I turn my face though you're gonna see that I have all this glow going on which is really pretty but I haven't gone in with really a highlighter to achieve this there are other products that you can use if you're a mature woman to achieve this dewy look now it might look a little bit more highlighted down here on my chest but on the face itself it's just a glowy look now let me turn this way so you can see really no glow showing whatsoever on there so it really does make a big difference when you're taking a look at your makeup and if you like this look then it's something that you can achieve without having texture if you don't like it I completely understand that too if you're somebody that doesn't like this glowy look but I really do feel like it brightens up that I mix that I look bigger I feel like it just makes you have a dewy youthful glow on your skin and then I do feel like it makes those lips look a little bit more pouty and a little bit more plump too so that is it for today's video I hope that you did enjoy it I will put on my other side of my makeup later on but this is to demonstrate how glowy and dewy can look beautiful without looking greasy because there are times I do feel like it might feel like it's a little bit overboard so you have to kind of choose whether or not you'll use the glow spray whether or not you're wanting to put on something that is going to be a finishing powder that might give you more light to your skin whether or not in the inner corner of your eye you want to just use that light powder that you put across your eyelid rather than a shimmer in the corner or there on the brow bone too so I just feel like putting those little extra extra added touches really does help a lot I hope that you did enjoy it please give this video a thumbs up if you did thank you so much for tuning in today for this short little glowy tutorial let me know in the comment section what you think and if you have a favorite glowing product that you use I also normally do put L'Oreal Lumie Glow Shen either in my foundation or under my foundation and I didn't get a chance to do that today because I wanted to show you the difference but that is another wonderful product that you might look into also so take care of yourselves I hope everybody is doing very well thank you so much for spending time with me today love you very much and I'll catch you in my next video bye you guys


Welcome back to our meds smarter lecture series where we're taking a smarter approach to preparing future physician Before we get started if you'll take just a quick minute and click that like button and also Subscribe and turn the bell on so that you'll be notified when we post new videos Let's continue on with our discussion of gram-negative organisms and discuss spirokeets Spirokeets specifically are going to be spiral shaped bacteria that have an axial filament in them Three examples of spirokeets are going to be Borrelia, which you can think of that as big-sized Lepto spiro and treponema Treponema of course is going to be the most commonly known as syphilis Now we can remember these three particular organisms as spirokeets as BLT and Borrelia is big So you've got Borrelia as the BL as Lipto spiro and T is treponema of these three you can only see Borrelia Using an aniline dye under light microscopy and because it is big we can then see it However, Lipto spiro and treponema are unable to be seen because they are so small now What type of aniline dyes can we use these are going to be either your right or your game sustain? To be able to visualize treponema We're going to have to use dark field microscopy because they will not die with those aniline dyes Or we can use the direct fluorescent antibody microscopy. So let's discuss Borrelia first Borrelia is a spirokeet that causes Lyme disease We get this Borrelia transmitted to humans through the exodes deer tick So the natural reservoir originally became the mouse So it came from a mouse the deer became the intermediate host It doesn't harbor it. It's an intermediate host the deer tick or the exodes tick Then we'll bite the deer will become infected with the Spirokeet of Borrelia and then when they bite a human they transmit that disease to the humans it's most commonly seen in the northeastern United States and To be able to treat it. We're going to use to use doxycycline a very simple treatment. That's our first-line treatment there If it does become more severe if we don't catch it early We can jump on into amoxicillin and then if we do see any type of CNS Signs or severe illnesses heart blocks, then we will use seftriaxone Remember seftriaxone is a great cephalosporin for anything that is in the central nervous system because axe Will penetrate that blood-brain barrier. So seftriaxone will get into the CNS and help with that So we have three different stages of Lyme disease stage one is the early stage where we see that erythema migraines Which is that typical bullseye rash where you have that central reddened area Followed by a clear area and then another circle of reddening So that's erythema migraines and most of the time we see flu-like symptoms with Patients in that stage Moving on to stage two. This is where it becomes more disseminated. We can see secondary lesions associated with it Carditis is going to be very common to see with something like an AV block maybe Facial nerve palsy is one of the main things with Lyme disease that we see so that's stage two when you get that facial nerve palsy and migratory myalgias or transient arthritis So these can be muscle or joint pains that can move back and forth and not be consistent in one location And then stage three is our late disseminated stage where we get that encephalopathy or in chronic arthritis Stage three is definitely where we would be For sure using seftriaxone to treat Likely using seftriaxone in stage two as well due to some of those heart blocks So a way to remember Lyme disease and some of the main key aspects of it is you get a key Lyme Pi to the face so Lyme disease and you remember FACE So F is facial nerve palsy a is arthritis C is cardiac block and then E is erythema migraines or that characteristic bullseye rash If you found this material helpful for your studying Please like and consider subscribing to the channel also share this video so that more people can benefit from it like you have
