You could design up a custom bin grabber that clicks into small tabs on the bins so you can lift bins out with ease… would be a fun cad project

Depending on the contents of the draw a neat hack is to modify a bin to have cutouts to allow fingers to easily scoop into the bin, requires a bit more planning on how your setting up your draw but depending on the contents can allow for much more compact + deep bins

I don’t have any right to tell you how to make your show, just wanted to remind you that you have reach and what you say matters somewhat.

There are still heaps of opportunities for motivated talented juniors so hopefully we don’t scare them all off.

Thanks again for the show.

The file without leaking the private key to your ISP or even themselves. Basically client side encryption with client side decryption with one click and no leaked info

Example real world usage of this vulnerability is you find a CSRF/XSS bug on target website, craft up a URL that will execute a password stealer payload, trick user into click action on dom element and harvest the password.

I feel like once you have a CSRF/XSS your already pwnd

Docs on how to integrate any openthread boarder router into home assistant: docs.espressif.com/projects/esp... and here’s the devboard I mentioned in openthread’s docs: openthread.io/guides/borde...

This enables easy thread based iot hacking for devs like me and also open source preferring home assistant users…

Oh and Apple HomePods are able to be used as thread boarder router too so you very well might already have threat based iot in your home using a HomePod to connect!

Each implementation of iot has any and every opertunity to royally screw the pooch, however thread (which is one way of powering a matter iot device) can be bridge into your home network via an open source bridge routing software, of which ESP (ESP32 company) have their very own dev board!

So one could argue a less noisy approach on a different radio band is a safer bet, but from memory the mesh approach has been tested with much larger setups and not caused bt coms issues

Thanks for all the hard work across all your podcasts, the least any of us can do is send in a question so you’ve got a whole heap to pick from
