🦋 vendor pointing at a C header: "is this an INI file?"

vendor pointing at the end of an INI file (clearly containing C source code): indeed... why should I not put something that is probably a CRC-32 here?

there's a hardcoded 32-byte AES key the firmware uses to encrypt passwords... except they fucked up (made an array of u32 and not u8) and 3/4 of the key is zeroes

not that it matters a lot given it's hardcoded

@be_far @xyhhx @whitequark I use the argon variant but I believe they now offer native NF artifacts from the latest release which also upgraded the number of ligature flags for better fine tuning of what is configurable.

@xyhhx gave up that particular bike right before moving to Berlin. I miss it. Kinda too aggressive for most of my regular riding here anyway but it’s super fun on fast routes and velodromes.
