I lack the wherewithal to do anything more than to appreciate the sheer scope in the most general terms, but nostalgia is kicking in quite hard. Bravo!

Fair, though not all printers can accept a NIC. And, we are also back to our of date NIC FW.

For pretty much all the older USB-only printers, using something like a Pi (supply being the current limiting factor) is the solution to networking it. It is not that different than the "print server" built into the network-enable

It feels all sorts of wrong that a system with access to corporate resources, for something as sensitive as an online secrets management company was also running an entertainment suite. And on top of it, a damnably old, unpatched, with know

I admit to knowing nothing about this manufacturer. Are they an OEM? Is it possible to establish a chain of trust for the boot process? Is the 4G LTE modem sanboxed away from the OS? What are the chances of this working on US carrier's

So, the twitter post alludes to SS7, but it is not clear how it is (ab)used to do the Telegram-related exploitation. Presumably, SS7's design flaws are being used intercept Telegram's registration verification messages, placing th

I have found IODD 2531 (there are likely others) to be super-useful for that sort of a thing. It presents an ISO (using the rocker on the side as a selector) from its HDD as a bootable CDROM target, and still exposes the HDD/SSD as a s

It feels like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, etc - should be treated as sources of promotion (self-promotion, or otherwise). Then the information found on them can.be treated approximately.

I wonder how reliable those were. Additionally, since they are mechanical in nature, were they a limit to aircraft performance (seems unlikely, but figured it is worth asking).

How interesting. The more things change, the more they stay the same. "Photoshop for Text" is, arguably, called "Typesetting". Aldus Pagemaker and Quark XPress were both quite popular at this task.
