    Saw that Ed Zitron comic today with the goose… Been thinking this about the $32B the AI cartels keep moving around between them… just feels like a ponzi scheme for vibe revenue. Please help me make “vibe-revenue” a thing. ;)

    Huh. Pretty cool. https://www.wired.com/story/defcon-34-badge-baochip-andrew-bunnie-huang/ Almost as cool as my junk badge. Show off. I am totally kidding. That is a pretty awesome design and I can’t wait to check it out.

    You ever look at your bowl full of usb drives on your desk and wonder which ones you have used in testing malicious samples? No? Yeah, no… me neither.

    But the fun stuff is on another port, fellow program. Agency? Yeah that’s right. Hackers.town fights for the user

    Ok folks, a small preview of our badge for DEFCON. First, there’s a guestbook, so you can sign your neighbors node (this is DEF CON after all) Second, our landing page interface, complete with Joey! Onboard help page! And a Veilid network visualization that gives you some insight as to what your perspective is on the network.

    What I’m saying is I’ve been quiet for a while, but I haven’t been idle. Recycled garbage into a badass next gen privacy respecting compute platform that can be used for damn near anything. Don’t question my dedication, we ain’t came to lose.

    Ok. One of my favorite things about hackers on is the dogged persistence involved with twisting tech to your will. This weekend was a lot of that. Total badge rebuild to accommodate a workflow broken due to client isolation. This little badge board just hated the idea of being both a AP and a STA at the same time. Not anymore. But that was a deep dive in drivers and reverse engineering. It works now. Hail SATA

    You ever not account for a specific network setting and then have to refactor code and reflash 200 badges at the last minute? Yeah, no? Totally... me neither...

    But what if broken search is a feature and not a bug? peace sometimes is where you aren&#39;t looking.

    It’s time to make a concerted push for privacy policy reform in the states. The decision this week was a good one but stopped just short of declaring your data yours regardless of platform it is stored on. This means the litmus test is still the 1967 benchmark of “does society expect your situation to deserve privacy.” I think the people are ready. The overreach and encroachment of the past decade has set the stage. We won a battle, but the real win is now within reach.

    I love it when a plan comes together.

    Privacy takes more that just policy solutions. Privacy is architectural as well.
