Zkitszo - The Real

 Sometimes we gotta get back to a way that technology isn't the answer- where our AI chat buddies can't be there to guide us or give us a much too overly complicated answer/ solution to some "problems". Which... not necessary- and with some sharp thinking, saves the day... and in 1 example possibly, your life. Fobbed    You are stepping out of your car... just before, your phone rang and you took a call. Placing your keys/ car fob in your lap. Distracted by this call, you proceeded to exit- only to have said keys/ fob drop onto the seat. You noticed...but not until the last moment and the car locks- normally it shouldn't, this time it did. Smashy Smashy Many would look around and reach for some object nearby. Maybe a stone? A brick? Stick? Pipe? Something with 'oomph'- maybe smashing he window is the answer... you are in a rush to get some;lace important after all. This is the answer if you are willing to unnecessarily dole out $1, 2, even 3 or more K... h...

High-Performance Flight Tracking Our skies and that which occupies them are open for us to explore- just need a touch of knowhow plus a sprinkle of technology- now with data aggregators such as Flight Aware, ADSBLOL, AirFrames plus many more.... you don't even need the tech part- I guess a means to the internet is still required. Resources like those open up the skies and give us much detail of what is above our heads... is it really a gov'nt spy plane? Who's layin' down all those chem trails?  Not that such topics aren't but on a more serious note... these resources give us the details of the aviation above us... even give us maps of the flights. Naturally something that sparks my curiosity. My curiosity in the world of high-performance flight tracking lead me in an unlikely place:  I am attracted to the subject- currently the confrence Def Con is on.... #badgelife... lead me to one of the  hacker conference badge makers.... The Aerospace Village's badge for ...

 Helping your router identify your WiFi adapter on your network. A Mac address is unique. Kinda like your device's fingerprint. It's made of 6 sets of 2 characters and separated by semiolonsì. A Mac address is comprised of letters and numbers. As an example; something like this ... 01:aa:gg:88:bb:ccp What Makes a Mac Address First six characters are classified as organizational unique identifier.. or OUI...  popular lookup tools/ databases are IEEE ieee Public Mac Address Look Up Tool... Online Search Tool by Wire Shark, to name a couple- there are many more...some more upto date than the other. If you can't locate the OUI within one, give the others a try.  A Tool such as the WiFi Pineapple can link directly to OUI resources giving us an efficient research tool for network analysis. OUI's For Research Utilising such data as an OUI can be of tremendous importance- providing shortcuts, Where once blind, guessing... now, knowing a manufacturer, can point us to default log...

 A lil.... " artistic " release... a collage... a Gif... Something to materialize one of my daily woes- running out of memory - further, the struggle; 'Man vs. Cloud' . The delicate dance made to upload , without duplication,  to completion- quickly- while memory is full, most functions are unavailable. How entertaining it is when you go to delete some files, to clear out space, yet, a pop up message is presented before you declining you of the action. .. "Not enough space. Can't use... Delete some files or uninstall unused apps, then try again." Awe geez thanks... what do you think  was attempting to do? I use this small tool to make these gifs... it is really handy for quick screen recording- you can save the gif  as a video further down the road... but, you will not have any audio. I use ' Screen 2 Gif ' to create these...

  Saad Hasan bringing us  a buzzin' DIY job with this static detector. Do It Myself, A Reminder. Mostly for the "bookmark"/ reminder- wouldn't mind making myself a version of one of these. Especially, if the sensitivity can be adjusted or it is sensitive- it's interesting to walk around- realize how much we are bombarded by static.

Pick and poke is still my style of typing- even after the many many years behind the 'keebz'- though, I'd say it is evolved/ has it's efficiencies- maybe why my shoulders hurt and a reason I don't have arthritis in my hands - many do after years typing... It is still a slow way of putting words to screen... even if you're a quick an  speedy typer  Time is  money- so they say- and no money, no funny, honey. In business, it used to be a secretary or a dedicated employee who'd be at the beckoning call...just in the edge of the shadows... invisible, as to not disturb- frantically putting pen/ pencil to paper- capturing it all in detail - exact, word for word.  These days, instead of a secretary doing such a task, we have services which can do similar with ease and efficiently. One such service is... https://dictation.io/ is a simple site where we can find... one of, if not the, easiest speech-to-text services I've come across. Other services make you sign u...
