I printed it and stuck self-adhesive copper tape to it. There's copper tape with conductive adhesive so you can add multiple overlapping pieces and it counts as one conductive surface. Then I used the second part of the mold to shape the copper, so that it sticks inside the recessed traces. Then I used sandpaper to file away at the raised ridges. The copper traces are now electrically independent of each other. Done! But if I want, I can remove the extra copper tape.

The companion mold at the bottom. This second 3D-printed part pushes the copper tape down into the recessed trace channels so it conforms to the shape. The two parts sandwich together with alignment spikes to keep everything registered.

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

@johncullen.bsky.social I'm listening to Broomgate and really enjoying it.

Thanks!

I misread as "down 50 bpm" and wondered how that could possibly be okay.

"or by hijacking another device that controls the TPM bus (e.g., a BMC)"

What does it mean to "control" the bus in this context? Something beyond read access?

Great to see this workflow. Just my style!

Not only is it great to see somebody so confident and comfortable in their editor, but also to explain what's going on so eloquently.

Essential viewing!

She got the job!

Next summer, Ellie will not be sitting with me at our local college summer league baseball games, because she'll be in the press box working as the official scorekeeper!

Very excited for her.

Today, my 14 year old is headed to round 2 of her first ever job interview.

It's a cool role (a summer job) and she's a good fit.

I'm really excited for her.

Some MkIV VW owners found coolant in their brake lights.

This thing is interesting:

Seems to be a tiny computer with two ports (ethernet and serial) in the shape of an SFP module.

I've dealt with some very dense/compact network deployments where such a module would have been handy.

Control over turns is one of the things which got me wondering about it. Quite a variety of radii in there, so it's clearly more than just waypoints.

I guess each turn could be assigned a bank angle in advance.

Yep, that tracks. I think I may also have gotten temperature data from passive copper DACs.

I guess I was thinking of the data path.

Curious, did your teardowns reveal different twist rates between the pairs in a cable? I've read that it's a thing (orange twisted tighter than blue or whatever), but have never seen it myself.

Thanks!

@alyssam-infosec.com Can you explain how this is done?

Can a Cherokee be fitted with an autopilot which facilitates this? Maybe it's just really tedious GPS enabled hand-flying?

Thanks!

What are they hoping you'll find?

I've failed to track down the slides, but I think I learned in BRKDCT-2214 (Cisco Live presentation from over a decade ago) that passive DAC SFP+ cables are literally wires. Nothing else in there.

I didn't like your 2022 Monktoberfest talk.

...I loved it!

North Korean infiltrator caught working in Amazon IT department thanks to lag — 110ms keystroke input raises red flags over true location A barely perceptible keystroke delay was the smoking gun that led to the uncovering of a malign imposter.

I don't understand the detection mechanism here.

The laptop was being remote controlled, so any extra latency was in the "user reacts to info on screen" loop, which seems wildly variable between humans.

Can anyone better explain the signal used here?

Cool, thank you!

This lever was a critical one to my systems around this time, and I always kinda wondered why it was a switch, rather than a knob.

Bits of nostalgia are always an 0xF highlight for me.

@bcantrill.bsky.social On 0xF you mentioned working on "lbolt" early in your time at Sun, and how it was only allowed to be set at 100Hz or 1000Hz...

Was this thing exposed to the operator as "hires_tick"?

I don't remember ever reading about lbolt, wonder if they're one and the same.

Thanks!

It's got me wondering about a polyglot style attack:

Can the visible ink and the magnetic components be decoupled so that a machine reads one value while a visible inspection reads another?

Turns out she was correct! It's legitimately magnetizable ink, which is read by running it over something like the heads used for audio cassettes.

My mother, who believed that the RFID reader which granted access to her gated community did so by reading a *bar code* from the RFID box stuck to her windshield, always referred to this font used on checks as "magnetic ink".

I assumed she was confused, that it was a font optimized for early OCR.

Now that Juniper is part of HPE, the video which precedes company-wide meetings (webcasts) includes lots of B-roll of HPE discover.

Nice to see you at our company meetings, Keith :)

A Dyson sphere around the solar system (stop at Neptune) made from a single layer of the foil used for Hershey's Kisses (about half of standard household foil thickness) would require a mass of aluminum slightly larger than the mass of Earth.

Sam Altman should get on this project immediately.

Becca has not stopped talking about meeting you today. "I can't believe the author signed my favorite book!"

Thank you, and Go Knights!

I just explained to my 18 year old that people used to pop their car stereos out of their dashboards and carry them around like little lunchboxes.

I'm not sure she believed me.

Okay.

It's interesting to me. <shrug>

Is "keystroke patterns or rhythms" not at least a bit interesting?

I don't know what the frontend for this thing is, but it suggests javascript (or a fat client?) would be profiling my touch-typing.

I'd not have suspected a text input box of doing biometric profiling. Seems interesting to me.

A memo to Costco employees titled "Employee Preferred First Name is now visible in Timeclock & Timekeeping System"

In Costco yesterday I noticed a memo on the bulletin board near the timecard clock. It explained how employees can update their preferred first name in the payroll system.

It was a nice bright spot, given (gestures around) everything.

The joke's on all of us.
