I’m a father of two with a love hate relationship for technology…. I love to make it and hate it when the things I make don’t work.

@WeAreOpenreach is there someone I can phone? Think one of your engineers has left a ladder on a pole and forgotten about it.

Not sure it will be there in the morning.

@iyoushetwt Insomnia.

Swagger is pretty good if you are developing the apis.

I really like the cyber chef tool by @GCHQ So much so that I have just built it as an electron program so I always have it when I need it.

Got builds working for Windows and Linux.

@tsoding And you started with zero CVEs as opposed to staying with some zero day CVEs

[alex brown @abrown439]

@eevblog I can smell that from here.

@davepl1968 I think just BASIC.

There are many I would like to add to the list but I read them on the odd occasion.

We now have control over the frame buffer and can read events from the button and scroll wheel.

I have root on a nest gen2! Also compiled a simple hello world app that runs on the device. More to come soon

[alex brown @abrown439]

Got very close to root access on my gen2 nest last night.

@FFmpeg @Jerry_Jaeger_ Ha ha. I think I am one of the few people on the planet that want to slow it down.

I have an application where is shares a machine with other tasks and I want to limit cpu usage.

@Plusnet is there any way I can get an IPv6 address on my connection?

Happy to be part of a trial or something but need an IPv6 address for a project I am working on.

When @enginemode11 is reinstated, I will start using this platform again.

Until then all I will use it for is to check to see if the account has been reinstated.

@ggerganov Now if you pick frequencies that play nicely with g711, g729, gsm and opus then you stand a chance.

Personally I think this will be best acting like an audio QR code that will allow the two clients to establish a new p2p data connection.

@ggerganov I spent 18 months working on a project to get modems speaking over voip using bell103. Bell 103 encoded 300bps using two frequencies.

We never got it working, in the end I created a soft modem to take away all the issues introduced by voip. 2/
