@makerbymistake Out of curiosity, why put the M.2 slot in the center instead of near an end so you could use a 2280? Trace layout issues?

[Kabbage from American Express @KabbageInc]

Thanks @NASDAQ for the recognition!

[Patrick Watson @patrickthedev]

@GreenRoninPub Yeah, though it would have been nice to be able to get the Special Edition. I like the elegant simplicity of it's cover art. :)

[Patrick Watson @patrickthedev]

@GreenRoninPub I didn't hear about the Expanse RPG Kickstarter until it was already over. Are there any options for late-comers to get in on it? I know some campaigns allow late pledging up until the BackerKit is sent out.

@hey_bulldogg @comcastcares Probably a patent infringement ruling. If correct, what that really means is that @comcast doesn't want to pay the licensing fees

I always support @EFF because digital rights are human rights. https://t.co/V3CKwDZ8hg. Also, they have a neat patch and Freedom Cat shirt.

@ossoff one of your election fliers was GLUED to my door yesterday, leaving a bunch of crap behind. Who glues things to doors? :(

@Hiya what's the difference between the iOS Hiya and Mr. Number apps?

The Black Hat USA talk that @ValtmaNir and I gave about weaknesses in pinpads has made it's way to Youtube: https://t.co/24QSU63hHe.

Watched 10 Cloverfield Lane on a plane last week. Felt like they got a lot of ideas from the Wool/Silo series by @hughhowey.

@LastPass Can LastPass Authenticator securely export or otherwise backup TOTP codes?

[Nir Valtman @ValtmaNir]

@Yaogwai @patrickthedev definitely one of the important slides - consumers' awareness

@dewald @ValtmaNir sometimes squirrels eat the internet cables or whatever. Then it's up to the merchant to follow offline approval rules.

@dcskytalks @ValtmaNir Curses! We would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for those meddling kids!
