Here's a view where you can better see what's going on. It's holding the greaseweazle flux imager to the bottom of the floppy drive, without needing a long (or short, for that matter) floppy drive cable. This fixes some mounting problems for my Portable Floppy Imager and will help make the whole thing more compact.
Recent discussion about the perils of doors in gamedev reminded me of a bug caused by a door in a game you may have heard of called "Half Life 2". Are you sitting comfortably? Then I shall begin.

I've been busy as hell this past week.

A lot of people have been asking hard questions about the security of LoRa systems when they hear about mesh radios.

I'm not one to trust the marketing so I and several friends put together two new LoRa tools to help us audit the security claims of LoRa mesh systems!

One of the exploits demonstrated is PKI poisoning, this is where we listen for a complete user profile and only change the public key to one we control.

In the case of mesh marauder we also add a little 🥷to the user name so people can see something is wrong.

If they never have seen this user before they will appear as a green contact.

If this is a contact they already knew the meshtastic app provides a warning but appears to replace the original key without user input.
