This is your reminder that your should keep scavenging through the night. Hint: there are some things happening that can only be collected tonight for points tomorrow. @defcon.bsky.social #defcon33
That's so cute!
Printing the updated version of this, snake is bigger, hopefully the little issues are fixed (there was some minor warping on the corners). I'm extremely excited to paint one up and see how it looks! 🐍
🔥Operation WiGLE MeltDown – A Community Wardriving Event🔥
aka: #WMD
April 26th 00:00 PDT - 23:59 PDT
This is not a competition — it’s a collaborative, community-driven mission to push WiGLE’s servers to their absolute limit by uploading all our wardriving logs on April 26th.

There is no option to buy tickets in person this year.
Unfortunately, due to logistical constraints, we cannot provide additional tickets for purchase in person/at the door.
We appreciate the support from the community and our ability to put this amazing event on for you next year.
Datasheet PDF of an i.MX RT500 opened in Adobe Acrobat with the file tabs open showing a Excel file for the pinout of the part
Reminder that PDFs can have file attachments. Esp. with datasheets they sometimes hide useful data.
Stylized circuit board, showing a blue "K" with a DIP12 next to it that resembles the Ki from the KiCad logo. The dot for the "i" is drawn as a gold bodge wire shaped into the number 9
What's this? Oh, nothing much. Just KICAD VERSION 9RC2 dropped! We are only a couple weeks away from the final release. Test out the nightly builds now and see if you can find any showstoppers that we can fix before that happens.

No new subscriptions in 2025.
I’m horrified by the companies that sell a product with x features and then a year or two later put those features behind a subscription.
I’m hoping the FTC will do something in 2025 (if anyone from the FTC is reading this).

It works really well! I'll be using Pinecil tips most of the time but it's nice to be able to plug in a spade tip for an FPC cable or other oddball tips for uncommon jobs.
This past week I improved my soldering kit with some mini solder spools and a T12 adapter for my Pinecil.
I was cutting lots of small foam inserts and put together an Xacto blade adapter for my Pinecil to speed things up.
Check this project out!

I modeled it after the Bit-Butler but made the holes deeper for the longer bits, added holes for magnets, and made them a bit smaller and more portable.

Drill bits displayed in 3D printed organizers.
I got tired of searching through trays of bits and 3D printed some magnetic TPU organizers!
We need to rebuild our electronics Twitter network, let's have an awesome HW/SW project thread!
