Take Control of Your Cellphone: Wireless Screen Mirroring with scrcpy & Tailscale

Control a Android Device Wirelessly Including Full Screen Mirroring Using scrcpy & Tailscale, along with your mobile device's data - and an interesting use... Project: DIY Thermal Drone (Part 1) This started as a deep dive into scrcpy —learning how to mirror and control my cellphone from my PC. But I wanted to push the limits: fully wireless, over mobile data, using the phone as a passthrough for external peripherals. Specifically? A thermal camera dongle. Can I strap this entire rig to a drone- the cellphone with the thermal dongle- and build a ghetto thermal-image capable drone? This post covers the initial remote camera setup, starting of with some initial food for thought, further diving deeper into things to give us an intresting end product- hopefully.  Because this is a project you'll definitely want to show off, I’m also breaking down the CMD OpSec you need first. These privacy and security commands ensure you can share your progress safely—without ...

Ditch the Dongle on The Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Pi Wi-Fi "Glow Up": Native Monitor Mode & Injection (No Dongle Required) There are days when technology simply iterates, and then there are days when it quietly revolutionizes a workflow you’ve accepted as "just the way it is" for years. For the longest time, the first rule of Raspberry Pi hacking was simple: "Buy an external Wi-Fi adapter." If you wanted monitor mode or packet injection, the onboard chip was widely considered a dead end. We all had those bulky ALFA cards or Panda dongles hanging off our sleek Pi setups, draining power and occupying USB ports. That rule has officially expired. Thanks to the incredible work by the Nexmon project and the recent packaging efforts by the Kali Linux team, the internal Wi-Fi chips on the Raspberry Pi 3, 4, 5, and Zero 2 W now support monitor mode and frame injection natively. No dongles. No compiling kernel modules from source until 3 AM. Whether you are a beginner b...

You Got This.

Navigating the Chaos: From the Shallow End to the Deep End of Success I often look around at the content we consume and the lives we lead. We see high-budget productions and polished lifestyles, yet we often crave something genuine—a "grassroots" reality. If you have stumbled across this post while navigating your own hardships, mental health struggles, or just a creative block, I want to offer you a perspective on resilience. Whether you are dealing with controversial situations, critics, or just the weight of your own ambition, know this: The challenges you are facing are just symbols. They are messages signaling that you are on the right path. 1. The Power of Just Starting We often self-sabotage before we even begin. We doubt ourselves; our posture slumps, and we stare at the floor. But the secret to overcoming a daunting task—whether it's surviving the first day of school, completing a complex report, or recovering from a depressive episode—is simply to star...
