Alright fellow nerds, how do I make my #defcon badge from last year run doom? How about one of the final fantasy games?

Just swapped out my failing mic arm for a new one with sleek covers. But something was missing… So, naturally, I raided my B-Sides & DEFCON sticker stash and gave it some personality. Now it feels right. 🎤🔥 #Infosec #Cybersecurity #DEFCON

Hey folks, we just got here on BlueSky. We don't have our friends on here yet. Would you mind sharing so people can find us again? And if you're just hearing of us for the first time, we're a local DCG (Defcon Group), located in Orlando. We host in person meetings as well as online meetings.

Season 3 of Phish Stories is confirmed! This year's scenario will be arriving in early to mid-May, can't wait to share it with you all! #Defcon33

Given the current social and political circumstances, can DefCon continue to exist in the current context of freedom? The DefCon incubator thrives on the fact that many different people come together. #defcon

DC215 is looking for speakers for upcoming events! If you have a talk related to DEF CON - hacking, security, hardware, or anything in between - we want to hear from you. Share your knowledge with the Philly community! Reach out to us to submit your topic. #DEFCON #DC215

Seeing events like #BSides, #DEFCON, etc makes me miss #BIT RVA. It was a unique space but the leadership disbanded & the chapter dissolved after a few months. I’d love to find more communities where tech enthusiasts like us can connect and explore beyond just the corporate side of things. #cybersec

Hello @defcon.bsky.social #DEFCON fam. In addition to the serial Meshtastic project, I am working on an experimental #BLE #Meshtastic app using BLE on Long Fast with the Python API. github.com/mytechnotale...

I gotta wonder if there's any interest in a #defcon or #blueteamvillage talk about what we can do, as hackers, in oppressive regimes, to help our fellow individuals. Like, I got ideas, but is it worthy of a talk? Dunno.
