There's a sick linenoise article by @there.is.no.aarch64.mov in @phrack.org 71 called "Learning An ISA By Force Of Will", where ixi goes from unknown binary blob, to manual instruction decoding, to figuring out control flow, and gives a critique of the RE'd ISA.

Wrote a trigger for CVE-2025-38494/5 (an integer underflow in the HID subsystem) that leaks 64 KB of OOB memory over USB.

Still works on Pixels and Ubuntus (but the bug is fixed in stable kernels).

At full tilt with wireguard all 4 CPU cores oversubscribed, it gets quite warm. But the heat dissipation is fantastic and the tunnel rate never degrades even under constant load.

(If it’s not clear by now I’ve been running one for the past few weeks, I love it)

They’re really quite good. Better WiFi range than the Slate, faster, ARM based CPU. Hardware acceleration for packet processing messes with flow stats, but they also clearly tell you that. The touch LCD display is customizable and great. OpenVPN maxes out ~40Mbps down, Wireguard at 70Mbs.

gonna put some feelers out there and say that i am Looking For New Work! i have a little over 2 years of experience in application security and the LLM-y side of AI security, but would be excited to transition into some kind of data-oriented role like threat hunting, model building, or data analysis

Every year there’s some discourse around how safe/unsafe it is to scan QR codes at BlackHat and DefCon.
Last year, I set out to enumerate the scope, and did!
And then promptly forgot for a year.

QR codes you shouldn’t have scanned last year; this year.

A group of friends slowly getting antsy, making a drink, sitting back down, pausing to check time, unpausing, and then collectively staring at the screen with a monotone low hum for another 10min before collectively laughing at each other until we cried was the best. Never seen the full thing

There was a torrent rip of Primer in the early 2010’s where it was the correct length and perfect quality but midway through the movie when they climbed in the box they just looped it endlessly for the remaining of the movie with a low hum.
