    Blow Your Reality Mind

    Blow Your Reality Mind

    Jon and Eric make it back from Texas, despite airport security. Nespresso has an open redirect vulnerability, eScan AV delivers updates via HTTP and Cisco has Zero-day fun time.

    Aging And Eclectic

    Eric performs Digital Spring Cleaning and Jon mostly works outside. Open source groups are worried about other 'XZ Style' hacks, Roku announces a second security incident, LastPass employee is deepfaked, and LG TV vulnerabilities. Don't expose your TVs to the internet folks. For fun we have an amazing article about deep sea cable repair ships and a performance by Drum Tao.

    Bonsai Herbs

    Bonsai Herbs

    Eric pulls out the BBQ, taunting the Rain Gods. Jon checks on his bees and deserves a third wire. Hackers lure folks with AI promises from hijacked social accounts while a software supply chain narrowly avoids a big oopsie. Eric dips his toes in hydroponic herb gardening while Jon eyes smart contact lenses (and narrowly avoids an April Fools oopsie).

    Robust Investigation

    Robust Investigation

    Eric gets back home from vacation and Jon (tries to) defy range anxiety in his new car. Google has a proposed settlement for their harvesting of incognito browsers and the big AT&T breach has 'encrypted' PINs but are easily reversed. The first Neuralink transplant recipient pulls an all nighter playing Civ6, and we (may) have a record number of bee colonies in the US.

Eric finds 3 million hotel room doors can be opened while Jon finds a company playing boths sides. Eric discovers he's a Lightweaver while Jon is an Elsecaller who also likes a whale museums.

    Taunting Spring

    Taunting Spring

    Pi day, wasps about, new 3d printer, Dune 2, and a bee update. Stroustrup objects to the characterization of (modern) C++ as unsafe (but are any projects in C++ fully modern??), Apex Legends tourney participants forced to cheat, swappers come for the eSIMs, and your connected car is probably selling your driving behavior data to insurance companies. For fun we have a sick tulip identification and eradication robot and the Voyager 1 was POKEd in early March and is returning its FDS memory for analysis.
