Some of you might still remember the story of three Polish hackers who helped a train operator get their trains back working, after the manufacturer had bricked them. If not, there is a fascinating article here, which reads like a thriller. And there is also a video for those preferring that medium.

Now, there's more happening:

Yesterday, Polish Police entered the train manufacturer's headquarters and seized documents and computer media as evidence for the alleged wrongdoing of the manufacturer.

(The manufacturer tried to lock in the operator to the manufacturer's expensive services, to prevent another certified train servicing company from servicing the trains at a better price. ⬆️)

I brought my Olympus 35 RD to this year and took a whopping 72 shots, … just to find out later that the camera jammed twice, unnoticed by me ;—;

There were 0 pictures on one film and just 1 picture on the other, the single picture is of course a compose of an unknown number of other shots. That however turned out to be a very happy accident. I love the resulting picture, so far I have found 13 (!!) separate shots within! :O
It’s so colourful and vibrant, I’m so sad about the jammed camera

Beim gab es einen Talk, in dem es um Hoffnung ging.

Zentraler Aspekt des Talks war Kunst: Kunst, die nicht von Menschen gemacht wurde.

Ich kann nicht sagen, wie sehr mir das das Herz bricht. Dass Leute im Chaos wenn sie über Hoffnung reden sofort an Maschinen denken, die Menschen das Kunst machen abnehmen.

Es gibt mir das Gefühl, dass es vielleicht doch ein Fehler war mich für diese Community zu engagieren. Und ich fühle mich gerade weder sicher noch willkommen.

@betalars Bei AI und Hoffnung denke ich an irgendwas, was mir meine ganzen Bullshit-Tasks abnimmt, damit ich mich auf anderes konzentrieren kann.

Kunst durch Maschinen ist eins meiner Horrorszenarien, weil dann nur noch die Bullshit-Tasks übrig bleiben.

@leah @kunsi @betalars ist leider etwas untergegangen aber beim Vier-Jahresrückblick wurde auch https://42.ccc.de/ vorgestellt und die Ergebnisse werden zum nächsten Congress vorgestellt.
Dort wird es dann (hoffentlich) viel hoffnungsvolle Kunst von echten Wesen geben

Btw, not that it would matter now, but I didn't have a single Tschunk during , because none of the bars I came across had it listed on the menu. Was there a secret to getting a Tschunk that I didn't know?

vogelchr,
@vogelchr@chaos.social avatar

@cato There was Tschunk available from the main bar in Hall-H and the one in front of the Lounge/next to Cloakroom. On the other hand, while they wouldn’t skimp on the rum, the ones we bought had the lemons 🍋 only cut and not at all squished, so there was only little lemon taste :-(.

@simmac@chaos.social avatar

@cato did you check the menus in the evening? apparently, Tschunk got only served after 17h (at two of the bars at least), so they probably switched the menus as well

In mainstream media 37C3 is described as this big serious event, where the big questions of our time are discussed. But in reality everyone is running around with cat ears, while plushing up their blahajs and meowing at each other ​:blobcatgoogly:​

As folks gather at the birthplace of Wikileaks , I wonder who will raise the alarm that needs donations to continue? https://donorbox.org/ddosecrets-five-years-later Wikileaks hasn't published a leak since 2019, while DDoSecrets has published millions of documents. But the Germans like to pretend history ended when Julian got arrested. The leaks didn't stop, it's just the funding for the leaks kept going to the bloated ancestor, instead of going to the active publisher. Who will archive and publish leaks when runs out of funding? Unclear, but don't expect to see anything new from WL.
