if arch and valve get married and their baby is a variant lf arch thats gaming friendly and runs proton out of the box, then its sayonara windows for multiple market vericals.

get those put calls sorted out ahead of time

is this the bathroom equivalent of "all unit tests passed"?

soon the cloud will come to you

and the batteries i did explode?
they were easily 20-50x bigger than the ones that go in pagers (a single AA, usually)

I will be very surprised if these exploding pagers turn out to be "it was the batteries".

ive destroyed a BUNCH of lipo packs. ive flown them into trees at high speed, ive stabbed them to watch them sputter and flame. Lipos can cause problems, sure, but lipo batteries, especially tiny ones that could go in pagers, simply dont have the oomph to explode hard enough to kill people

these had to have been mossadded somehow

regular batteries do not do this.
they are MADE not to
because consumers

I did a bit of research.
my guess is either HMTD or TATP.
those can be triggered via heat, and its plausible to build a teeny tiny pipe bomb the size of a battery, and power the pager with an adjacent tiny 3.7v lipo.

but this is 100% speculation, based on the reports and the video

see.

remember this?
the anom phones, that the fbi sold to criminals who used them for months and months?

this is what im thinking.
theres no magical way to send a page to a pager and have it explode.

now is it possible mossad swapped the batteries for 'ones that were intentionally boobytrapped to explode'? maybe

but sending a page to a pager doesnt magically do anything special unless you backdoor the pager somehow too.

how does a pager 'work for months and months, but then ... explode'? You have to tell it to handle a specific page a different way.

so we're talking about backdoored whole pagers

see?
not the battery.

shamelessly looted

oh and they just opened up their CFP. I am absolutely submitting. If you're a presenter and youre tired of how american conferences treat speakers, i strongly encourage you to join me at #securityfest. I hafta travel next week, but I'll be likely working on my submission the week after. I promise it will be more lunacy.

also also: the new venue for the con is rad, and directly across the street there is a place that will sell you LITERAL BUCKETS of swedish chocolate.

so #securityfest released some pics of the speakers, and i picked out a couple choice ones to demonstrate what happens when you let me on stage:

i really mean buckets.

oh shit, who is lars gonna sue now?
the poor, distraught drummer of metallica will surely be super emo over his diminished ability to derive revenue by suing fans, or anybody that accidentally hears a metallica song while passing by a grocery store

5g updated!
ive gotta be up to like 14g at this point.
i can talk to modems now!

anybody that tells you "perception is reality" is buttering you up to tell you a lie.

@feld so that covers the chemicals used in the french sunblock, but doesnt say anything about the PA+++ rating, or how it compares at all to supergoop

@feld supergoop is PA+++ rated, and the stuff you linked isnt - so im wondering what the differences are
