Over the long term, Reddit’s scrambling efforts at financial security may prove just as futile as the moderators’ attempts to fight back.&#8221;</li>

<ul>
<li>Joe bought his first mechanical keyboard, what could have possibly swayed him to finally make the switch? Simply put: asthetics! 8Bitdo is a company known for making game controllers, but they&#8217;re entering into keyboards, and Joe has placed a pre-order for the NES (there&#8217;s a Famicom version too!) 8Bitdo Retro Mechanical Keyboard. It even comes with some silly usb buttons. He couldn&#8217;t resist. We&#8217;ll let you know how it goes in late September!<a href="https://amzn.to/3Ylsabu">https://amzn.to/3Ylsabu</a><a href="https://amzn.to/3QrATqz">https://amzn.to/3QrATqz</a></li>



<li>Ever generate a Threat Model? Threat Dragon is an open-source project from OWASP that helps you create basic threat-models based using a couple different categorization models (STRIDE, LINDUN, CIA). Source code and docker images are available. It&#8217;s designed to be Simple, Flexible and Accessible. There are companies out there that provide more sophisticated tools, but they are also more complicated, expensive, and often require you giving them sensitive data about your applications. Why not give Threat Dragon a go!<a href="https://owasp.org/www-project-threat-dragon/">https://owasp.org/www-project-threat-dragon/</a>(Microsoft has one too, but it only supports Windows, it&#8217;s heavily tilted towards Azure, and it&#8217;s janky<a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/securityengineering/sdl/threatmodeling">https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/securityengineering/sdl/threatmodeling</a>)</li>
