Got my new WiFi-Shuriken boards delivered and assembled today. They have 6x @seeedstudio.com Xiao ESP32-C5 boards and a Xiao RP2350. This thing is a scanning beast! Can scan both 2.4 and 5GHz bands in under 2 seconds.

I still loathe that Elon fucked up one of my favourite words; grok.

It took me a couple decades to separate it from the fucker who coined it too.

It's a grand word. a perfect word. It filled a necessary void - and now it's been stolen. boo.

Seven Billion Reasons for Facebook to Abandon its Face Recognition Plans Meta’s analysis that it can avoid scrutiny by releasing a privacy invasive product during a time of political crisis is craven and morally bankrupt. It is also dead wrong.

Meta thinks now is a great time to launch facial recognition surveillance tech in their creepy glasses because EFF will be too distracted by fascism to notice.

We noticed.

I’ve had many cases where my OSS was used with zero attribution, and even entire tools/designs were copied; sometimes down to the wording of the algorithm explanations.

I’m very pro-reuse, but this kind of thing honestly makes me hesitate to open-source some work. What would you do?

the edge-to-edge forced migration in Android should be a textbook example of how NOT to do it. So much effort and code required just to keep the app working.

[BUG] Navigation Bar may occlude bottom elements Database and Settings Activities Β· Issue #787 Β· wiglenet/wigle-wifi-wardriving When using the legacy Navigation Bar (instead of the gesture bar), Android's edge-to-edge layout changes may result in partial occlusion of the data/controls in the Settings and Database Fragments.

That’s the navigation bar. Android is phasing it out in favor of the gesture bar. You can switch to gesture if it’s interfering, switch back after clearing.

Every bit of this project was an absolute delight. From researching the patent drawings, reaching out to Takara Tomy to try and find Wantanabe-san, and collaborating with photographer Jim Golden on the deconstructed Armatron shoot...I loved it all. ter.li/JKeegan (gift link)

If you happen to be looking for bad redactions in a large set of data files today for some reason, there's an open source tool for that.

Holy cow - just noticed that #ccie4526 has passed 50,000,000 geolocated APs on @wiglenet.bsky.social, continuing to dominate the number 2 position on the big board!

Not bad for nearly 23 years of contributions!
