Gaston: I eat 5 dozen eggs every morning for strength.
Me: at $7 a dozen that's $1050 every month!

@hacks4pancakes are you going to be at Schmoocon? I have a ticket though work but my partner is at another conference in Orlando. Any ideas on how to bring my 13 year old daughter along?

@VeronicaKovah and @xenokovah will be presenting for the first time ever their new training "Bluetooth Low Energy - Full Stack Attack" at @ringzer0 Training in Austin TX March 18-21 2025.

This 4-day training will be bottom-up from the PHY all the way to the GATT layer of BLE, and the final day will be focused on vulnerability assessment of a customized Ultra-Vulnerable Peripheral (UVP) running a custom Zephyr RTOS firmware on a Nordic nRF52840 dongle, with lots of extra vulnerabilities introduced for students to find.

Bluetooth Low Energy - Full Stack Attack

It's pretty fun to hack things wirelessly. And hey, it turns out there's literally *billions* of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) things sold per year, so let's learn how to hack those!

Today is stock-making and canning day. I have already made 2 gallons of vegetable soup (It is only stock if you use bones). Next, I'm canning those while making 2 gallons of chicken stock.

Pro-tip: If you can ping into a server but the SSH and SSL services state that the server ended the configuration, make sure that the netmask can reach back to your laptop.

Looking to backup data from a NAS to something like back-blaze. I would love both encryption and block level writing. Like an updated version of Jungle disk. Anyone have any solutions?

Is there anything more satisfying as building scripts to do process something and setting them to cron jobs every night? It's like magic.

@benjojo you might know this answer. What is the current volume in MB/s of BGP updates? Was thinking of recording all of these.
