Shouldn't be so fucking difficult to get root on a device I own outright and which the manufacturer has dropped support for.

Today I discovered a pretty cool utility for listing USB devices! 🔌

🌸 **cyme**: A modern and cross-platform lsusb!

🔥 Displays manufacturer, serial number, speed, current information (mA) and more!

🦀 Written in Rust!

The Battle of Cable Street took place on Sunday 4 October 1936. It was a clash between the Metropolitan Police, sent to protect a march by members of the British Union of Fascists led by Oswald Mosley, and various anti-fascist demonstrators, including local trade unionists, communists, anarchists, British Jews, supported in particular by Irish workers and socialist groups.

Ok I found my USB to TTL dongle and the random Chinese pet feeder just keeps on outputting the SSID and password of the WiFi network I used during set up to the serial console. Seems like a good idea.
Today a coworker asked how reboot worked on x86 and I linked him to a Livejournal post I made a very long time ago
I made this table comparing WeWork and my local gay sauna. I hope somebody finds this useful
ADHD is a good thing actually because what would I do with all the spare time if I didn't have to search for the same stuff constantly?

In today's episode of doing silly things with electronics, we set fire to a potentiometer by passing way too much current through it.

It seems that I've put enough wifi access points at my house. Full coverage with transmit power turned down from 23/23dBm to 11/14dBm for 2.4 and 5 GHz respectively.

I'm using EnGenius EAP1300 APs, which I've gotten supported in OpenWRT. My jailbreak tool, called "EnFringement", is on my GitHub.
