I got to help illustrate this badge for @dcfurs.com as part of #defcon33, which took place last weekend.

I love creative technical projects, so being part of the collaboration on this furry circuit based toy has been great! Thanks for the chance. Hope it was a fun weekend!

Hey #badgelife we dropped a bunch of badges at Hacker Warehouse in the defcon vendor hall! Get them while they last. They come with drink tickets for our events today as well! #defcon33

We assembled 550 @dcfurs.com badges this year. Here's the YSM20R-2 ripping thru RGB LED placements on the top side! We are picking from a single 8mm feeder since there weren't enough LEDs in total to justify setting up multiple.

The air quality has unfortunately gotten worse as the day has continued so we are moving our outdoor BSIdesLV events indoors for tonight.

The DEFCON Furs+Queercon meetup today will now be in Copa from 10-11:30pm.

Please join us tomorrow at the DEFCON Furs+Queercon meetup at the Tuscany Suites & Casino Pool

When: Monday August 4th. From 10pm until late

Who: you!

Why: As we kickoff the wee of Hacker Summer Camp meet old friends and new at our DEFCON Furs+Queercon meetup and pool party.

One of the core principles of Hack Your Lives has always been the importance of living your most authentic self. Now, more than ever, it’s crucial to reiterate that we stand with our community. In these challenging times, it’s essential to uphold our principles. /1

We are looking for an artist that can help us design the next iteration of the DEFCON Furs badge. You must have experience with vector art, designing for PCBs is a plus.

If you are part of our community (DEFCON/hacker, furry, queer, and/or GNC), and an experienced vector artist, reach out.

Our parent org now has it's own BSky as well :)

DEFCON Furs is now on BSky!
