A comprehensive look at cryptocurrencies and NFTs, and how it's mostly a scam. 💯

Dude you have got to be kidding me

Time for people to talk to and/or join ASTM committee F42. The 3D printer law is dependent on a standard from them (Side note: I have some pre-ban Ender3 printers for sale - low mileage, non-smoker, no AB2047 restrictions on them 😜 CA resident price $500. All others $60.)

I needed a better way to manage codex instances running on multiple projects and an easier recovery process of an active session in case of a disconnect. @l33tdawg 's Sage was too heavy for this, so vibe coded a shared memory model per project and checkpoints for easy recovery.

My iPhone got stolen. The thief plugged it in to charge. That second, the front camera took a photo and emailed it to me with the exact GPS location. Not a third-party app. A built-in automation I set up in 5 minutes using the Shortcuts app that comes on every iPhone. The thief's face. The address where my phone was charging. In my inbox. Before the thief even unlocked the screen. I showed the photo and location to the police. They recovered the phone the same day. A cybersecurity consultant who sets up this automation for every client said: "This is the most effective anti-theft setup on any smartphone and 99% of iPhone users have never configured it. It takes 5 minutes. It uses the Shortcuts app that's already on your iPhone. It runs silently. And it catches the one thing every thief eventually does: plug the phone in to charge." He showed me 9 more iPhone anti-theft features most people never activate Stolen Device Protection, Find My network tracking, Activation Lock, Lost Mode, a trigger-word automation that works from any phone, and 4 other settings that make a stolen iPhone nearly useless to a thief and nearly guaranteed to come back to you. "Every iPhone has a $1,000+ anti-theft security system built in. Most owners have configured zero of it. They lose the phone. They panic. They wish they'd spent the 15 minutes it takes to set everything up. Don't be that person." Here's the complete anti-theft setup step by step 🧵

Does this make me a dork for having a set up like this at home?

@ftc why does it seem like I suddenly now have a bank account that i never asked for?

"Community-based solutions need contributions of all kinds so everyone can get in where they fit in. Pick the spot that suits your abilities and plug in." (from the @defcon 34 theme) May contain at least one @hintjens quote too 😉

Fieldwatch listens to Wi-Fi and BLE and identifies radios around you from a signature catalog you manage in-app (tags, body-cams, drones, vehicle APs, etc.). Set alerts when a watched signature or MAC is heard. Work a sit to compare the same area or drive over time. Track radios moving with you and generate reports from that data. Here is what’s new since my last update: Fieldwatch 1.1.8 is on GitHub. Signature catalog is now 75. Name Wi-Fi the way you already name BLE: fleet cars, mesh, guest APs, and the locally administered BSSIDs that used to hide the pencil. If your local fire trucks trip the Compex signature, edit the Advertised name to “Fire Truck Station 51.” Works on any radio Fieldwatch treats as a non-rotating MAC. Manage named radios under Settings. The Detail page now describes the radio from the signature match. A Raven on Wi-Fi Direct reads as a gunshot sensor. New signatures for privacy awareness: Digital Ally and other body/in-car cameras, wearable recorders, camera glasses, and roadside names Fieldwatch can hear. Since 1.1.4 you can refresh the stock catalog with Update stock catalog from GitHub under Settings. Add observer notes to a radio: a short caption you write. It shows on Detail, as a chip on the Live list, and in every report. Walk the ground, then see the walk. Path is a north-up trace of this phone for the sit you named. Red dots are Extra attention. Blue dots are radios you named. Dots mark where you were when you heard them — not a pin on the other radio. Works offline in Airplane mode. The same trace prints on Debrief and Compare PDFs. Two rooms, two days, one question: what was only here? Compare sits is presence only — only in this window, only in the other, or in both. Kind plus MAC. Text, PDF, and a paste-ready AI addendum. Not a second inventory for a chatbot to reprint. Export logs or sits as CSV, JSON Lines, GPX, KML, or WiGLE CSV. Plus a lot of cleanup. If you haven’t pulled the latest APK in a while, this one is worth it. The user manual is updated to match.

I wish I was making this up. This is my latest order from @Ubiquiti - it was supposed to be two cameras and my G6 entry. But I received ammo, a battery, and my G6 entry.
