Grand Theft Crypto - relaunched Grand theft crypto is an F-box game engine from the the underground game-crew that bought you President evil, Castle Wolfensen, Plane murder and Doctor rat. In stores for Christmas this game is a combination role-playing first peon shooter in a close but separate reality. Some revolutionary software has been stolen by the last-empire, a military/industrial combine thats taking over the planet. Targeting dissidents and code rebels stormtroopers of the empire are similar to 1st generation OCP robocops, while high up positions in the empire have been favored by players in field tests, the survival and resistance tactics and strategy of the rebels win over longer term players as they delve into the multi-verse world of 2006. Ricomended. https://www.mail-archive.com/cypherpunks@minder.net/msg12865.html

Jack Dorsey and Tim Cook were aiding and abetting a criminal conspiracy!

" . . . committee’s latest high level cooperating witness, former Trump White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham, has coughed up additional Trump world names that the committee didn’t even know were involved in January 6th. https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/january-6th-committee-says-america-wi… Netwar aspects becoming manifest The fight for the future makes daily headlines. Its battles are not between the armies of leading states, nor are its weapons the large, expensive tanks, planes and fleets of regular armed forces. Rather, the combatants come from bomb-making terrorist groups like al-Qaeda, drug cartels like those in Colombia and Mexico, and militant anarchists like the Black Bloc that ran amok during the Battle of Seattle. What all have in common is that they operate in small, dispersed units that can deploy nimbly - anywhere, anytime. They know how to penetrate and disrupt, as well as elude and evade. All feature network forms of organization, doctrine, strategy, and technology attuned to the information age. And, from the Intifadah to the drug war, they are proving very hard to beat; some may actually be winning.

emptywheel ·4h Some of the Jan 6 defendants w/most secure phones thus far: Zach Alam, who had VERY good opsex, Brandon Fellows, who left a message, "The Founding Fathers would be ashamed of you," and Salvador Sandoval, whose phone FBI still hasn't cracked. emptywheel ·47m Mehta: It's an unusual conspiracy. Unlike most conspiracies I've come across, allegation they got in a room, communicated regularly, direct. Insofar as POTUS was tweeting, he was tweeting to everyone. This alleged conspiracy very problematic is it doesn't allege direct comms.

Tom's Hardware: Raspberry Pi Detects Malware Using Electromagnetic Waves

Tom's Hardware: Raspberry Pi Detects Malware Using Electromagnetic Waves. https://www.tomshardware.com/news/raspberry-pi-detects-malware-with-em-waves "A team of researchers from the Research Institute of Computer Science and Random Systems (IRISA) has developed a malware detection system using a Raspberry Pi that scans devices for specific electromagnetic (EM) waves. The group consists of Annelie Heuser, Matthieu Mastio, Duy-Phuc Pham, and Damien Marion . "Because the Pi focuses on the EM field, users don’t need to install anything on the target device. Instead, everything is handled via physical, external forces and is outside any software-level control potential malware has on a given machine. "The Raspberry Pi is trained with both safe and malicious data sets to help define the parameters of a potential threat. In addition, the Pi features an oscilloscope (Picoscope 6407) and an H-Field probe to detect EM field changes. "According to the research paper, the team used Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) to evaluate the data for threats. The model used to train the malware detection system provided accuracy as high as 99.82% during testing. "To get a closer look at this clever Raspberry Pi EM malware detection project, check out the official research paper created by the team.

Yubikey support for age
by Stefan Claas 10 Jan '22

10 Jan '22

Hi all, for those who use already modern age or rage (the Rust version) instead of GnuPG, there is now a plug-in available, which allows you to store your age secret key on a Yubikey. https://github.com/str4d/age-plugin-yubikey I tested it with age first, but age currently does not support it and will have it in the next version. It already works fine with rage. Regards Stefan
