Watches rioters in Milan demolish a Best Buy

Just in time.

That's cool to find out. I never would have imagined them being legit but I'm kind of glad to hear it.

No, that's exactly what I was wondering. Thanks for chiming in

I don't know what kind of designs they're using for this dynamic pricing shit, but I do know about the Flipper.

They are really solid hardware with a bit of a gimmicky presentation standing between it and an incredible community. It's extremely flexible and provides raw access to just about every kind of infrared/RF/NFC/wireless/wired protocol you could ever imagine trying to hook it up to. Many of the aforementioned protocols have limited or no security, relying mainly on security through obscurity and cost-prohibitive and restricted-access hardware to control other devices using this protocol. And the Flipper is comparatively non-cost-prohibitive and supports being configured by software to do exactly the same things as most of the cost-prohibitive, restricted-access technology that gatekeeps these protocols. You can do the math and put the pieces together, I hope.

I can tell you mine is sitting in front of me on my desk right now ready to go, I don't intend to use it often but it's useful to have when I need it. I'm not sure what else to tell you.

Did those flipper toys really turn out to not be bunk? They looked like straight Chinesium people are still talking about them so now I'm not sure

Personally I've just been swiping the tags. Just pop it off the track and drop it in the trash on my way out. Eventually it won't be worth it to have them.

Can't scan BT if I don't have it on. Though I bet my car emits a signal even if I don't use it, which is a bummer.

= s.o.c.

So it really is a Flock Soc.

I had the idea the we need to employ the people who have come up with really convincing credit card skimmers to make flock and axon camera covers

There is a deflock thread but I couldn't find it. Gave it a cross post in privacy@lemmy.ml

Wrapping it in tinfoil would probably degrade the signal strength enough

I might just have to break out my 3D printer again. I need to get a very long broom, though. I've seen one in my area up near the top of a street light. Shame it won't block the wireless features, like Bluetooth scanning.

TIL that Lemmy titles let me use Markdown formatting. Forgot I was typing in the title, till I saw the italics on my post show up.
