Unfortunately the reel-to-reel museum at Keszthely, #Hungary was closed, but the TV&radio&turntable museum was open. The traditional decorations on and around the items were especially cool!

(...) Thinking this way will teach you two things about computers: One, there's no magic, no matter how much it looks like there is. There's just work to make things look like magic. And two, it's crazy in there.

The Retro Museum in the city of Eger, Hungary 🇭🇺 is jam-packed with 20th century Hungarian and East-Bloc nostalgia, from prewar times to the late 90s.

It's small, but they have thousands and thousands of items on show, all setup with lots of love and care. Can highly recommend, it's great fun if you're into this kind of thing.

Of course it helps if you're Hungarian and recognize your childhood toys, and lots of other everyday items lost in time.

Microsoft marketing: “Your data stays in Europe.”

Microsoft’s Legal Director (under oath, in French Parliament): “No, I cannot guarantee that.”

Still think Microsoft Teams is a sovereign solution?

I have a friend that’s working on learning Rust, and looking for something more hands on / interactive. What’s the leading option these days?

Fuzzing Linux Kernel Modules, with Slava Moskvin

Stream by @slava_moskvin hosted by @steph3nsims about building a custom fuzzer to rediscover CVE-2025-0927 in the HFS+ filesystem implementation.

Slava started with a simple fuzzer implementation and then improved it step-by-step by adding coverage collection, proper seed generation, mutations, etc.

The source code of the fuzzer is public.

@troed Yeah I just managed to simulate a program on attiny, looks much better! Thanks!

@troed No idea, I just try to find the simplest, smallest (but hand-solderable) microcontroller because I have little space for a project...

I'm considering to learn PIC programming. Please send help!

Shop keeper Phyllis used her computer system to automate book keeping, taking the time to prepare from five hours to five minutes.

Having learned the system down to hardware level, Phyllis is now building an electronics kit. Her aim? Build a computer herself; Or as we called it an “electronic gadget”.

What Phyllis doesn’t say is she was a maths graduate from University and “#Cypher Clerk” in “Hut 5” at #BletchleyPark during the war.

The”Official Secrets Act” was in force in 1983 😂🤣☺️

Want to learn about Chrome exploitation and the role of WebAssembly in it?

In our new article, we'll break down the world of WASM, how it interacts with V8, and use CVE-2024-2887 as a case study to show how flaws in WASM can lead to remote code execution.
