Cut 1 more pair and now you have a cable you can prank your coworkers with. One side will show the link up but the other side won't. Good way to waste half a day troubleshooting a switch connection issue when it was a pinched cable with cut pairs all along...

Playing around with NMAP on my home network as I learn more about it from TryHackMe, find an IP that I can't identify, have a brief panic, realize I setup a honeypot a long time ago and forgot about it.

I love when I have a dream at night that turns into a musical on the fly with people I know singing with me.

AT&T's "5G+" with full bars (USB Tethered)

They won't come upgrade the DAS micro cell radio at the office from 4G LTE to 5G so my phone is constantly struggling, bouncing between the weak local tower 5G and the 4G LTE micro cell signal that apparently uses a dialup connection to the backhaul lol

That's a tricky one. Some of the stuff I've played with had AUX ports that were meant for connection to an old school modem so you could dial into it and remotely manage the device. I bet that was the case but if you can share more about the device I'd love to learn more about it!

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 28d

So it was a serial AUX port and not a console port?

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 28d

Dust bunnies in the port?

Echoskope @echoskope.bsky.social · 29d

Brutal hopefully it resolved quickly

Why does my Spotify DJ keep trying to play sad songs?

And when I hit the button to change the vibe it goes to angry heavy metal.

Is it trying to tell me something?

Just pulled into the driveway, shut off my vehicle, opened the door, but can't find the motivation to get out and go in the house.

Same shit every day.

Today I learned how to use ARP poisoning to intercept traffic using tools in Kali and then modify the packets to mask taking control of a PLC without reflecting the true state on the HMI.

Yeah, I'm a hacker now. #Cybersecurity #ICS
