Finally got a few mins to finish off some projects. First up ‘the dancing car’ - a stand-alone car cluster which ‘dances’ along with music. #CarHacking

"Can it Resolve DOOM? Game Engine in 2,000 DNS Records" blog.rice.is/post/doom-over…

This one has the potential for causing a lot of grief to coffee shops who use the same AP for guest access and their corporate backend. I’ve worked with retail and banks who have exactly the same set up too

@_CryptoCat @bsidesbelfast Were these recorded?

Two game hacking talks today at @bsidesbelfast 🔥 First one from Rebecca Martin on spreading malware via Sims mods. Another from Matthew Reaney on the history of game console hacking 🎮

@dcuthbert @_Freakyclown_ Ask yourself, are you going to be happier with it, or without it?

@_Freakyclown_ So when does it arrive?

I shouldn’t buy this should I?

This. We said it was a bad idea from the start and it is. Privacy nightmare and easily bypassed

@UK_Daniel_Card @BSidesLondon @BSidesChelt I didn’t realise this was on, but my Flipper hasn’t any use for a while so….

If you are coming to @BSidesChelt and want to play in the 'Cyber Hunt' game then I suggest you bring: A flipper or an android phone (or other WIFI/Bluetooth/RF goodness) You might be able to bag a few more points than iPhone users....

@_Freakyclown_ I learned this many years ago, from a Portcullis tester no less! (Although I always forget to do it and swear on first disconnect)

If you are new to ssh and traveling, use the screen command! I just taught it to a “tech guy” next to me at the airport who was frustrated at constant disconnection and he’s now trying to explain it to his team over slack. (But it keeps dropping out lol).

@dcuthbert Switch! You got off easy this time I didn’t mind replacing those, it was the desoldering of the PS5 ones that had me groaning.

Modern parenting in a nutshell

Got a new gym bag for Valentine’s Day. This is going to amuse me for months. #wehackhealth

@cybergibbons Shakespeare said it best. ‘To lick or not to lick, that is the question’

Sometimes people ask me how old I was when I learnt not to lick things. I more see it as slowly learning which things not to lick. I don't like blanket rules, you want to live life to the fullest.

Spot on. Anyone that says ‘security isn’t hard’ has never had to deal with pre-existing conditions

Hey @LGUK Your recent firmware upgrade for the G1 TV just broke ARC support, and with no firmware downgrade permitted I now have no sound. Perhaps having a rollback feature or even a downgrade feature might not make for salty users..

@cybergibbons Also if you find your drone from previous years in the loft, it’s not a good idea to fly it indoors for ‘practice’ as the chunk out of my doorframe will attest

If you've bought a drone for someone as a present, it's probably a good idea to charge it before Christmas day. It is *definitely* not a good idea to fly it indoors as your first flying experience. 🙃

Train tickets booked - see you all @BSidesLondon next weekend!

RT @bb_hacks: Fancy retrieving plaintext user credentials, deactivation passcodes and uninstall passwords for Palo Alto Global Protect VPN?…

@dcuthbert This is a concern of mine, at any point I could be denied access to precious memories because of policy/attack/mistake. I use a Phone->Cloud->HomeBackup set up for this, but it’s not plug and play for everyone and in this age it should be.

It’s incredibly ironic how many photographs are made today and yet hardly any are printed and saved All mostly digital. 1’s and 0’s stored on mobile devices. Billions of family moments stored in walled gardens.

I downloaded my Amazon Music data to try to figure out what song I was listening to, and included in the data is the amount of times they've tried to upsell me something recently. A paid service tried to sell me something over 500 times in the last few months...

For the first time in many years I tried to connect an iPhone to a Windows PC to do a backup. 1 hour in and I'm still no closer to getting either device to 'trust' the other - how did Apple mess this up so badly?!

@cybersecstu This is far too close for comfort. It’s missing the 1000s of pointless meetings though.

I mean GPT almost got there. Didn't quite get the plastic spreadsheet, and imposter syndrome. 🤣
