i can't go to hell - i'm all out of vacation days. i watch space rocks and yell at computers for my day job. probably too old for any of this

 

i think i might be burned out on internet social. it's hard to keep doing it. it's hard to even maintain the amount of attention i'm already giving it

 

i am the cause of most of my own problems

 

furthermore, capitalism must be destroyed

someone's got hold of a flipper zero or something at MFF and they're using that bluetooth zero day to fuck around. Presumably they had a giggle at that fucking article about some Smart Buttplugs being vulnerable and were like "hehehehe i bet so many furries at this con are wearing em im gonna do it"

only it's not just fucking with buttplugs or whatever, of course. gonna add a collapse because the auto-readmore is causing the post to glitch out when paired with the embeds. suffice to say, it's a lot more than buttplugs and it's Not Great

  • know what you're dealing with, "i just downloaded it from the internet" is amateur shit and no excuse
  • if, and only if, you know you're not causing, oh, i dunno, indiscriminate widespread harm, then have a little fun with it
  • in all other cases, make sure you're punching up, with intent

opening a tesla charging port is funny
turning the TVs at Best Buy to channel 69 is funny
indiscriminately turning off any insulin pump within range isn't fucking funny

i'm thinking about all those all in one rolled POS things that're an android tabllet built into a card reader, like they have at the ice cream parlor and like the carhops use at the drive-in diner, too, ggiven POS systems were also noted as crashing at the con. they're android, and no doubt also generically shitty

I put in a ticket about broken embed auto readmores yesterday too, an old post of mine ended up broken. It had discord embeds fwiw.

It's not MFF if someone doesn't get in legal trouble for being a twat!

in reply to @SomeEgrets's post:

and you know they're doing this only because they saw that article about the bluetooth exploit and smart buttplugs, quickly googled how to put custom firmware on their flipper zero to do it, and thought they'd have a giggle at a furry convention. they're fucking with everything in range on 2.4ghz bluetooth band by doing it, indiscriminately, because the flipper made SDR into a goddamn toy
