Yes. Someone had their iphone stolen. They got a text message on their partner's phone from Apple saying that their phone had been located; they followed the link and ended up on a professional, Apple designed website, showing a map pointing to a distant country where the phone was located, and they prompted the user to type in the phone's pin code in order to lock the phone or something like that. They only caught t…
Interesting, but totally unrelated.

Hi, Pavel Zhovner here, Flipper Devices CEO. Yes it's our product, but it's not ready for announcement yet, so we keep it secret. Right now, we are working on implementing Matter smart home protocol and will slightly change the product concept.
Put a CO2 + temp/humidity sensor in there and it's a no-brainer. The sensors could be nice to hack on too.

Or they’d just stand next to your desk waiting for your attention. I’m pretty jaded (and probably s…

Doing this every day is a problem. Doing it 1-2 days/week is the difference between being able to get some focus time to deliver something of value, and just being an internal search engine.

Actually fake ones will inevitably show "(c)" because they couldn't get authorization for the copyright key. If you zoom in you can see the gaps in the circle betraying the deception. To be extra cautious, select it to make sure it's real text and not a screenshot of a real copyright notice - this is a common workaround. There is also one known proof of concept exploit using false glyphs in web fonts - this is why ma…

If you're looking for something with an addressable LED matrix in a clock style form factor, the Ulanzi TC001 [0] for ~$50 is worth having a look at. Doesn't quite have the same aesthetic but inside it's just an ESP32 (flashed via the USB-C port) and there's various mature open source firmware replacements. I use awtrix[1] on mine and it's very easy to tie in HomeAssistant for doorbell notifications and that sort of…
Love the marketing on it: « the body is moderately thick and thin »
