During this US government shutdown, there are a number of US agencies that are blatantly defying the Hatch Act by employing partisan propaganda on their respective websites.
I built a project that identifies these sites and logs them.

Well, they're $30 each now, which I think is still a good deal, but it would be cool if they pop up on Meh again.
Also, pink.

BlackRock is in advanced talks to buy utility company AES in a $38 billion deal.
This would be one of the largest ever deals involving a U.S. power corporation.
AES is one of the world's biggest utility companies, generating electricity in 15 countries.

A lot of people are talking about federally ran government websites with anti-democrat propaganda blurbs, violating the Hatch Act. I've scraped 1,336 sites and came back with 23 that have this verbiage, along with a notable site that has a notice of anti-DEI court orders.
If you're interviewing an applicant for a Linux heavy role and they just told you the crontab scheduling order by memory, just stop the interview and offer them the job.

Yay Yay!! It’s Friday!!
Quiznos? Cosi? Subway? Jimmy John's? Jersey Mike's? Any sub shop I visit from this day forward will be judged not only on the taste & value of its sandwiches, but their weight, velocity, & stability of their wrapping.

50 cents at Walmart, how could one not cop
"Dunn’s attorney says he tried to turn himself in, but instead, 20 officers came to his home to arrest him."
Just think about that for a minute.
You throw a sandwich at a normal US citizen and nothing happens. You do it to a police officer and a whole taxpayer funded, king ordered gang shows up at your door.
I used one of these power banks at Defcon and it did surprisingly well. Only 1 USB C, but it will super fast charge a phone, and it kept my laptop going a bit longer. At $15 each, this is seriously a good deal.

Added to my list. Thank you!
Does anyone have any favorite talks from #defcon33? Videos aren't on YT yet, but I'd like to compile as list as talks are fresh in people's minds.

Oh hey, maybe even a web UI to allow people to submit GIFs or small video clips and turn them into ASCII animations.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
TO DO:
* Buy a cool domain name
* Optimize the script so the frames are in 1 file
* Modularize the code
* Let the user change the animation
* Maybe subdomains for different animations
* Better logging
* Release code
STRETCH GOALS:
* Real ASCII art (not just blocks)
I'm in the process of tweaking syncing to BPM for music. I have something that is surprisingly kind of working.
I was in third place in the @johnhammond.bsky.social lookalike contest. I'll have to grow my hair out a bit more for next time.

A request for ChatGPT to draw an ASCII art image of a fierce dragon, followed by an image of a happy little blob with snail-like pony tails.

So fierce.
I can't speak to the device itself, but the Android app is notorious for not connecting to devices after a while. If you're using the app and it can't connect, stop the app, clear the cache for the app, then start it up again. It should connect to the device automatically upon startup.

I have successfully created and tested a telnet script. I'll have to post some code at some point. Note that the type of terminal emulator makes a huge difference. Terminator is what's shown here (panels are great), but cool-retro-term makes an amazing show.
