Tempting, but in order to reduce the potential attack surface, I'm likely just to create a simple simulator instead now.

If it's good enough to fool the first few interactions of an automated script, that'll probably do. That'll give me the curl/wget target they're trying to insect me with, most likely.

It means I can potentially create a single binary docker instance that can be reset practically instantly by deleting/reimporting.

root@host:~$ echo tell me a story about a dragon
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a magnificent dragon named Scorch. Scorch was the most feared creature in all the land, with scales that shone like gold in the sunlight and eyes that glowed like embers. He roamed the countryside, breathing fire and destruction wherever he went, and no one dared to cross...

A medium interaction SSH honeypot backed by a basic LLM that believes it's bash.

I'm impressed at the ability to retain limited state, and respond 'reasonably enough' that it'll probably allow first stage automated attacks to be captured.. but at the moment, it's way too easy to peer behind the curtain.

It's quite jarring when your bash terminal starts telling you a story about a happy dragon in response to some weird command.

Yeah, they're pretty good!

Particularly if you can get them young enough before the internal 'stringy' bit gets too hard.

South coast of nsw is a pretty good option. Great as an accompaniment to snapper or flathead.

Native cherries aren't too bad either.. but it's a tough ask to get them after they lose their astringency and before the birds get them. The broad leaf variety are even harder.

Good stuff. Just about everything in my garden is edible. I'm particularly fond of the midjim berries and Lilli pillis. Still waiting for my Macadamia to flower.

Soy/curry kangaroo wrapped in big blanched Warrigal greens leaves (new Zealand spinach), when you can find them, are also a favourite. Sadly, I don't live where samphire grows any more; it's a good side dish if you can get young shoots.

Wires and false colour can be pretty awesome.

Anyone else have wire themes pics?

[–] RedPhoenix@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Great use of black and white.

Lizards are starting to come out in the late winter sunshine.

Pied: Bingo

Yep, noisy miners. They're aggressive little buggers. One of the reasons that park designers are encouraged to include small shrubs with thick foliage, is to give smaller birds somewhere to hide from the miners, otherwise you tend to get a bit of a monoculture of miners.

Yeah not too many mynahs around here thankfully. Partly due to the Butcher birds!

I literally just got out of the water after giving the hull a de-barnacleing in the middle of winter, and I'm lucky enough to live somewhere where that's possible.

That said, pictures like this of cold water sailing fascinate me.

Butcher birds are generally smaller, have a different pattern to their colours, and are a bit different in their vocalisations. Magpies tend to warble, whereas Butcher birds generally have a distinct series of tones (that varies a bit around the country). They also tend to hop more than walk - much shorter legs. The beak is a tiny bit different to a magpie too.

The adults are black and white, but the juveniles are usually light grey and white.

The noisy mynahs tend to be a bit more paranoid around Butcher birds too. Maggie's are less likely to actively hunt them. ;)

If you hear a bunch of mynahs going off in a group, it'll most likely be a snake, an owl, or one of these guys.

 

Incoming storm, Cleveland Queensland.

 

Popped out chasing some winter whiting on the weekend.

These guys showed up and checked us out.

 

Rainy day from a trip down to Melbourne

 

Starting to see whales more consistently while out fishing.

If you're heading out on a whale watching trip, mid to late June, untill early August, are pretty safe bets.

The young humpbacks seem to be quite jumpy around early July - particularly around Flat Rock near Stradbroke island, but off the north east coast of Moreton island is a pretty good option also.
