✨🆕 New project! ✨
For educational purposes only…
I HACKED A CAR IN JAVASCRIPT!!! 📡🛻
I built a web tool to hack wireless devices right from the browser and I used it to run a rolljam/replay attack against my friend's car (with consent of course) and IT WORKED!!! 😃🎉
Damn, @github knows how to put together an awesome swag kit! Thank you!!

ALT swag kit with a bomber jacket, a mechanical keyboard, a power bank, flash light and utility box
I love hardware badges but don't usually have the time to hack on them but I had fun trying out the @github Copilot app to build a little game for my Universe badge, using its built-in accelerometer and gyroscope for tilt controls.

I built a fun little Chrome extension that lets plants invade your abandoned tabs the longer you leave them unread. To access them again, you have to slash through the vines 🪚🌿

As much as it's nice to see people experiment more now that AI makes it easier, it's kinda sad that I don't see much knowledge sharing. No walkthrough of their process, implementation, etc. It's all just "look at this cool video of what I built" and that's it... 😞
Day 5 of whale swimming: today we swam with multiple pods, even one with 7 whales!! What a way to end the week! We've been so incredibly lucky

Day 4 of whale swimming: lots of fin slapping throughout the day! So cool to be able to see what's going on both above and under water!

Day 3 of whale swimming, I didn't think it could get even better! Not only did we find a mother and calf again but there were 2 more whales with them! It was unbelievable!

At the end of the day, we got a much closer encounter with a couple of whales but the other group got an even better experience so I'm really excited for the next few days!
Day 1 of whale swimming: I learned that I'm not immune to seasickness 🤢🛥️ It was quite miserable but it's ok cause I saw whales!! 😍
The ones we saw mostly stayed at the bottom so it wasn't always easy to spot them but we got a singer and I could feel the vibrations through my body, it was so cool!!

I'll never understand how some people can pride themselves in being completely oblivious to the issues others may face in a community or even worse, to not give a shit at all just because it would mean they'd have to improve their own behavior a little bit.
