I wrote about a device called GrayKey a while back that could unlock Apple phones. I was wondering how long it would take for Apple to come up with a way to defeat it. Looks like they have.
Go Apple!

Biohacker – Good News and Bad News
Good News: The CEO who injected himself with an untested Herpes cure back in February lived to tell the story.
Bad News: The CEO who injected himself with an untested Herpes cure back in February lived to tell the story — until May.
Full story here.
Additionally…he could also have played Kylo Ren. He looks a little like Adam Driver.
The Raspberry PI Post
I am writing this post on my Raspberry PI. For anyone who does not know what that is…
It is a computer that basically fits in the palm of your hand. They are incredible powerful and do a lot of things. Some use them as their home PC. Some use them for robotics projects. They are amazingly powerful for their size. HDMI video output, 4 USB ports, built-in Wi-Fi and ethernet port. It also supports bluetooth connections.
The official website is here.
Government Assumption – Fire Zones
Government in general usually makes a lot of assumptions when it comes to knowledge that the citizens should or should not have.
Fire zones are just one of the many examples.
What the hell does that even mean? How the hell would any of us know what a fire zone is and why would we?
It is meaningless bullshit that only the retarded government worker who came up with it knows. Not everyone is a fire fighter and not everyone knows what these stupid idiotic retarded zones mean.
Whomever invented them. Fuck. You.
Seriously.
Happy Birthday to KB!!
My daughter is almost over the hill.
That means I am well over it and have probably fallen down.
Happy birthday K.
Apple Battery Replacement
Great article over at Apple Insider about replacing your Apple battery and why there are specific rules surrounding it.
HAM Radio for April 30, 2018
Great conversation tonight about a variety of topics.
Everything from flipping your vehicle over to speeding to television issues.
Happy to hear that the HAM radio world is also populated with women and not necessarily a male dominated thing.
The conversation is wonderful.
Pseudo Camping Trip
I’m finally taking a few days off. I’m happy that our big project is past the first big hurdle and we are now into phase 2.
With that being said, I believe it is time to test some new camping gear. One of the latest additions is the Lynx ALPS 4 tent. It is a rather large tent weighing in at 10 pounds. I like the smaller Bivy style tent I have but sometimes you just need more room.
I’m going to spend most of the morning trying to figure out what gear I’ll need and then — pack it up. I’m taking the Trekking King 60L Survival Rucksack.
I’m looking forward to some winding down.
Robocall Relief Possible
Great article over at Engadget about congress trying to pass stricter laws against Robocallers.
I get about a dozen of these per day. I wish Apple would just allow us to block any number that is not in our contact list.
Yes. I like using “asides” to post. I think bigger posts should be handled differently. Asides are great for quick posts. Love. Them.
