1) the truth behind lighting technology, electronic billboards and light pollution 2) how to build a 250 indoor plant automated watering system 3) where museums need hacker volunteers 4) history of electronics hacking from Victrolas up
I wanted to add "how to make the entire world think you're a PHD at NASA without ever even implying you are or getting a degree" but he got mad
He built two observatories for fun once but honestly don't even know how you put that in a hacking talk
What's the next midwest con with a CFP? Thotcon, Grrcon, Blue Team, and Circle City are over and the Cyphercon CFP is closed.

Wow, this is a pretty good SMS-based phish. Don’t think I’ve seen this pretext before.
Pretty authentic branding, and offering compensation for something users can’t validate but sounds plausible. I bet it will be super effective. Minimal glaring “security awareness” training type errors.
Okay. I’m not the biggest Apple fan, so I don’t normally follow Mac hardware but EXCUSE EFFING ME BUT are you seriously telling me a $1400 MacBook Pro cannot drive two standard resolution monitors at the same time without DisplayLink kludges?!
HOW IS THIS PRO
This is opposite from the definition of “pro”
My 2016 MacBook Pro can in fact run two external monitors.
There are not many ICS cyber security degree programs out there yet, but what I’ve been seeing has me very worried about curriculum.
Like, ICS cybersecurity is definitely a balance between process engineering, electronics, and traditional cybersecurity. Balancing those skills is a lot harder. Usually people are not experts in all those niches, but they do have to be able to learn them quickly and reason well.
If you focus entirely on one of those things you’ll be in trouble. If you try to learn them all to granular technical detail you’ll be in trouble. If you cannot understand and think critically about them all on the fly at a high level, you’ll be in trouble.
I’m at Gen Con and yes, I have indeed lost my ability to converse with non infosec people.
I just brain dumped and stumbled on both Stargate and martinis and honestly I know a lot about both of those topics. It’s day one. At least it’s really quiet and people are masked.
It should NOT BE THIS DIFFICULT to talk about MSgt Siler or vermouth coherently
Then again I woke up at 3am in Boston, had lunch in my car in Chicago, and it’s now 6:20 in Indianapolis.
