My wonderful friend @hacks4pancakes.com has finally managed to cat-wrangle me into setting up the actual schedule for the @pancakescon.com Hardware Hacking Village Livestream happening in two weeks!

My DOOM @hardhat.rocks hat is going to make another appearance at @defcon.bsky.social this year with some new tricks! It now plays MS-DOS #HackerJeopardy! Write your own category and I might put it on my head!

MS-DOS Jeopardy with Hacker Jeopardy categories on the board.
