@comeupdreamz Heyo, whiteboy sent me - I'm looking for bot commissions and can definitely help, so nice to meetcha. https://t.co/lzB4nLbnlo if you want to go over specifics. o7

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@_AlexanderSong_ Yo that would be amazing! You're the best! I'm doing a talk for BSides so that is beyond perfect 😍 I'll figure out something for Defcon, in the meantime that'd be fantastic 💙

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

About to head to Defcon and i'm wildly unprepared! Staying from Monday the 9th to Monday the 15th, anyone got a spare bed they're hoping to split the cost for? hmu

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@_AlexanderSong_ I'm actually getting involved with two coding bootcamps, Rithm School and Dominican University in California. Really excited to see where that goes. And also doing a talk at BSidesLV on a tool I made for automated data recovery!

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

Yo friends! I'm doing a 2-day class on Hard Drives and Data Recovery at Defcon! If you wanna learn all about that, sign up before July 15th or else I might not make the minimum attendance and this will make me blue! Yes, I made that joke. fite me.

@_AlexanderSong_ Ever since I started doing trainings/teachings and realized that could be part of my career, I've been absolutely loving it and working to expand and find new opportunities.

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@UntitledElec So... never got any responses to the DMs regarding a replacement badge and never received one. Tbh i'd buy one again so long as it means i'll have a working one - really wanted to use it for a hotkey keyboard. R.I.P.

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@UntitledElec @Badgelife It's all good! Just glad to be getting a replacement. Thanks for the help and the clarification!

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@UntitledElec my CafeBabe started heating up and I smelled smoke soon after plugging it in, lights started acting weird and overall it went dead after a few minutes, even though it was plugged into a mac normally. Any ideas what went wrong?

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@UntitledElec @Badgelife Also, does this mean that the only way I can use it as an external secondary keyboard is to connect via bluetooth? When is it safe to use USB mode? Would you be up to cut the trace so I don't break it again? :P

so many questions, mostly just happy for your help <3 thx lovelies

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@UntitledElec @Badgelife Thank you for explaining, glad we could figure it out! And I really appreciate you helping out, you guys were really rad to meet and chat with at Defcon and I love the badge :D

[Blue Hephaestus @BlueHephaestus]

@UntitledElec It did when I first plugged it in, but after it went poof earlier there's nothing I can do to get any lights or anything to turn on, regardless of mode.
