Before Halloween meant costumes, candy, and smiling jack-o'-lanterns, it meant something considerably more dangerous.When Irish and Scottish Halloween traditions crossed the Atlantic, they collided with American harvest parties, fortune-telling games, pumpkins, Victorian entertainment—and a growing tradition of October vandalism.Kids blocked railroad tracks. Wagons ended up on barn roofs. Windows were smashed. False fire alarms were pulled. People were shot. And by the 1930s, some American cities were seriously considering getting rid of Halloween altogether.Instead, they made a deal with the kids.Give us something good, and nothing bad happens to your house.This is the strange, occasionally violent story of how America created the Halloween we know today—and how three little words turned a night of chaos into a national tradition.Welcome to Day Two of 31 Days of Halloween.

How many windows does the UT Tower actually have?Story We Love: the $77 million Our Tower project has restored 439 windows, cleaned tens of thousands of square feet of granite and limestone, re-gilded alphabet letters, and stacked three miles of scaffolding that two guys put up. Sandy and JB spiral into tower tours, campus bells, Hyde Park churches, and the Austin taboo nobody brings up. That's the story we love.If you love The JB and Sandy Show, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a Longhorn.

Chris Wysopal was one of the first hackers to go public. As "Weld Pond" at the L0pht hacker collective in Boston, he testified before the US Senate in 1998, where the group delivered the soundbite that they could take down the internet in 30 minutes. He also wrote the Windows version of Netcat. In 2006 he co-founded Veracode, which by his account has now analysed trillions of lines of code. Today he's the company's Chief Security Evangelist. Tobi and Chris talk about what AI changes for attackers and defenders. Attacks are getting cheaper and faster, and a custom exploit no longer tells you a nation-state is behind it. Chris argues this follows a familiar cycle: attackers adopt a new class of tool first, defenders catch up, and parity returns. That only holds if defenders actually adopt the tools, especially underfunded organisations like hospitals, schools and utilities. They also cover the new attack surface created by agents, plugins and MCPs, why prompt injection may never be fully solvable, and how Chris would handle security debt when acquiring a small SaaS company. CTOs will leave with a concrete shortlist: avoid memory-unsafe languages, put a package firewall in front of open source, run AI-assisted static analysis with real architectural context, and give coding agents explicit security intent rather than hoping "make it secure" does the job. - From the L0pht and BBS culture to the professional security industry - The BGP flaw behind "30 minutes to take down the internet" - How AI changes the cost and speed of attacks - Prompt injection, agents, MCPs and least privilege - Security debt in B2B SaaS acquisitions - Secure on first write: security intent, context and pre-merge testing - How engineering and security roles change over the next two years

EA Sports FC 27 is de nieuwste voetbalgame in de reeks die jarenlang bekendstond als FIFA, maar nu al enkele jaren niet meer. Wat echter níet is veranderd, is de beperkte hoeveelheid (daadwerkelijk geslaagde) vernieuwingen. Zelfs een open-spelwereldmodus stelt weinig voor. En toch willen voetbalfans dit gewoon weer spelen, zo hoort Joe van Burik van Donner Bakker en BNR-chefredacteur Yannick Eling in deze Mini-Game-aflevering van All in the Game. EA Sports FC 27 nu te spelen op Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4 en 5, Xbox One S en X en Series S en X, en Windows pc. Vragen? Mail ons! Op allinthegame@bnr.nlOver All in the GameAll in the Game is de podcast over games voor iedereen. Wanneer er iets speelt in de wereld van games, hoor je dat hier: spannende ontwikkelingen, boeiende onderzoeken en natuurlijk de nieuwste releases om te spelen op je PlayStation, Xbox, pc of welk platform dan ook.Onder leiding van BNR's techredacteur Joe van Burik hoor je gesprekken met andere gamekenners, zoals beursnerd Jochem Visser, techredacteurs Niels Kooloos en Daniël Mol én popcultuurkenners Donner Bakker en Sam van Zuilen. Ook hoogleraar computerwetenschappen Felienne Hermans en universiteit docent Laura van der Lubbe schuiven geregeld aan, en je hoort bijdragen van audioproducers André Dortmont, Ivo Klokman en Jeanne Heeremans. Elke week zijn er minimaal twee afleveringen van All in the Game. Of nog meer, wanneer er veel speelt in de wereld van games. Soms met impressies en analyses over actuele ontwikkelingen en nieuwe games. Andere keren kun je luisteren naar interviews met makers van bijzondere games, van Grand Theft Auto (GTA) tot Baldur's Gate 3 - zowel Nederlandse als internationale ontwikkelaars. Of we praten met e-sport-atleten, onderzoekers en andere experts in de wereld van videogames.In deze podcast kijken we verder dan alleen wat een game leuk maakt: we bespreken juist ook in de culturele, maatschappelijke, economische en technologische impact ervan. Jaarlijks gaat er immers zo'n 200 miljard euro om in de wereldwijde game-industrie, dat is al (vele jaren zelfs) daadwerkelijk meer dan de muziek- en filmindustrie bij elkaar opgeteld.Zo hoor je bij All in the Game niet alleen wat je moet spelen - en op welk nieuwe (game)platform - maar kun je daar nog bewuster mee bezig zijn, over praten en natuurlijk van genieten. Of het nou gaat om Super Mario of Sonic the Hedgehog, Fortnite of Roblox, voetbalgames van EA Sports FC of de FIFA, Call of Duty of Battlefield, League of Legends of Dota,of goude oude titels zoals Tetris, Rollercoaster Tycoon, The Sims of zelfs Snake. En we hebben ook aandacht voor liefhebberijen die dicht op games zitten, zoals Dungeons & Dragons, Lego en de films, series en strips rond reeksen zoals Star Wars en Marvel. Het komt allemaal aan bod in All in the Game.All in the Game werd als podcast al in 2022 opgenomen in het archief van Het Nederlands instituut voor Beeld & Geluid in Hilversum - als eerste podcast van BNR Nieuwsradio en één van de eerste gamepodcasts van allemaal. Gezamenlijk met talloze Nederlandse televisieprogramma’s, radioshows, games, websites, webvideo’s en podcast vormt dit materiaal de Nederlandse mediageschiedenis.Over Joe van BurikJoe van Burik is presentator, podcastmaker en techredacteur bij BNR Nieuwsradio. Je hoort hem bijna dagelijks in de Tech Update met het laatste nieuws over digitale technologie, en gaat daar in De Grote Tech Show (samen met Ben van der Burg) elke woensdag dieper op in met gasten uit de techwereld.

The Minions made a Wi-Fi router — and somehow it's actually good. Sorg, Katie Dudas, and Dave Podnar are back for AwesomeCast 798 with a wonderfully strange collection of tech, gaming, nostalgia and Pittsburgh stories. Sorg discovers Solitaire Alone Together, a browser experience that recreates Windows 98-era Solitaire while letting you watch people around the world play alongside you. Katie unboxes an adorable Optimus Prime from Symbiote Studios and gets excited about an upcoming Grimlock puppet. Dave recaps completing both the 5K and 10K at Pittsburgh's Great Race and celebrates the runners who have participated since the event began. Plus: Castlevania celebrates 40 years, Call of Duty experiments with turning off goofy skins, Microsoft continues reshaping Xbox, Wendy's releases an actual emo album, Pizza Hut teams with Little Free Library, the crew talks about the future of U.S. astronaut transportation, and a viral Minions Wi-Fi 6E router turns out to have surprisingly serious hardware. It's nostalgia, gadgets, gaming, Pittsburgh and the wonderfully weird side of technology on AwesomeCast 798.

This week on Science Faction, we tackle the important questions: Is bread actually good? Can a Disney Channel movie sneak science fiction past Steven? Can Star Trek: Strange New Worlds finally make Ben stop complaining? And, most importantly, how did a movie about sheep detectives turn out to be legitimately great? Then, in Future or Now, things get a little more serious as Devon brings us a massive Kelvin wave moving toward California, while Ben explores a fake version of Windows 11 that leads us into a much bigger question: why are we still using computers basically the same way we have for decades? Real Life We begin, naturally, with bread. Ben is against it. Devon, who apparently becomes increasingly French whenever bread is involved, is very much in favor of it. Steven loves sourdough and becomes increasingly concerned about what exactly Ben considers the staple crops of his diet. Devon settles the matter with perhaps the strongest argument anyone can make: fresh French bread is amazing, and he will eat all of it. From there, Steven has two movies to discuss, neither of which would normally be considered science fiction. Or would they? First up is Big City Greens: Spacecation, which gets a thumbs-up from Steven. It's a Big City Greens adventure that sends the family into space, which certainly sounds suspiciously like science fiction. There's also a familiar name in the writing credits: Mike Trapp. Then there's The Love Hypothesis. If you've listened to Steven talk about romantic comedies before, you probably already know where this conversation is headed. If you don't, well…he's going to tell you. Meanwhile, Ben has reached the end of another season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which raises an important question: is there a limit to how long Ben can complain about Star Trek? Season four is over, and somehow the show may have accidentally made a good Star Trek episode. That sends us into a bigger discussion about what some fans want from the franchise: an aspirational future where science, discovery, truth, and people working together matter more than enormous space armadas and the latest galaxy-ending artificial intelligence. Could this finally make Ben stop complaining about Star Trek? Maybe for five minutes. But the biggest surprise of Ben's week was The Sheep Detectives. And apparently it was EPIC. Ben calls it a genuinely smart movie and, perhaps most impressively, says it succeeds where Cars 2 failed. Beneath the absurd premise of sheep solving a mystery, there's a story dealing with grief and trauma that worked far better than Ben expected. Ben recommends it. Strongly. Future or Now Devon brings us something considerably larger than sheep detectives: a slow-moving, planetary-scale Kelvin wave heading toward California. The Guardian: Concern mounts over planetary-scale Kelvin wave heading for California The enormous mass of warm water is moving across the Pacific and could affect sea levels along the California coast, with changes potentially approaching a foot in some areas. That leads us into a conversation about what these enormous ocean systems actually mean when they finally reach land—and, for Devon, a much more personal connection involving his son and the devastating flooding in Texas. Then Ben takes us somewhere considerably sillier. Definitely Not Windows is exactly what it sounds like: a parody of Windows 11 that gives us an excuse to complain about modern operating systems. But the joke leads into a much more interesting question. Why do computers still work like this? Windows, icons, folders, desktops, applications—we've been iterating on essentially the same basic ideas for decades. Ben brings in Scott Jenson's exploration of what could come next and asks whether we're really going to use the same desktop UX forever. Scott Jenson: Are we really going to use the same Desktop UX forever? If artificial intelligence changes how we interact with computers, maybe the future isn't simply an AI assistant sitting inside the same old operating system. Maybe the entire idea of what an operating system looks like—and how we tell a computer what we want—needs to change. So this week we've got bread, romantic comedies, surprisingly good Star Trek, emotionally complicated sheep, planetary waves, fake Windows, and the possible death of the desktop. You know. Science Faction.

Shop my all-natural skincare products at Arvoti.com.Old farmhouses were built to solve problems that new homes can't handle… Is it a coincidence?I live in a 75-year-old farmhouse with a root cellar, a giant pantry off the kitchen, and an old walk-in meat locker in the basement with all of its equipment still there. The more I learn about how older homes were designed, the more I realize how much the house itself used to do the work for the people inside.Before central air, deep porches shaded exterior walls before heat ever entered the home. Windows sat opposite each other so air could actually move. Deciduous trees shaded the house in summer and dropped their leaves in winter to let sunlight back in. Sleeping porches caught the evening breeze. Root cellars held food without electricity, and summer kitchens kept cooking heat out of the main house.Modern subdivisions skip most of that. Homes get jammed together for speed and resale, without much thought for the position of the sun or the seasons. Then some owners move into brand-new homes and discover water intrusion, HVAC problems, and finishes failing much earlier than expected.There's also a tangent about millennial gray, personality-free interiors, and why I'm going to paint a mural of my farm in the laundry room regardless of what a future buyer thinks.You'll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[2:37] What the layout of an old home reveals about its people[5:14] Wraparound porches shielded the house from heat[6:52] Sleeping porches and catching the cooler evening breeze[9:16] The millennial gray pandemic and losing a home's personality[11:39] Modern kitchens with nowhere to store 30 jars of peaches[13:21] Dense materials that moderate temperature through the day[15:59] Whether homes are optimized for longevity or resale[17:52] What happens when a single household system fails[21:25] Relying on grocery stores as the new root cellarFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | X | Facebook | Instagram | Pinterest | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop

Plus: Zuckerberg's estimated wealth falls nearly $20 billion, Gen Z faces AI job pressure, and a Claude Code user reports a cleanup that deleted more than 55,000 files. Hashtag Trending for Tuesday, September 29, 2026, with Jim Love. NorthPoint Development is offering $10,000 to roughly 4,500 eligible households in Hazle Township, Pennsylvania, alongside another $120 million for community programs and services. But residents near the proposed 15-building data center campus worry about noise, property values and divisions within the community. Also in this episode: • Meta's falling shares cut nearly $20 billion from Mark Zuckerberg's estimated fortune across Friday and midday Monday, amid concerns about returns on AI spending. • Goldman Sachs estimates AI reduced monthly U.S. job growth by about 25,000 positions, partially offset by 9,000 additional jobs where AI supports human work. Younger, less-experienced workers face much of the impact. • Wired reports that AI agents are joining workplace conversations, taking assignments and appearing on organizational charts. • Bexorg uses donated human brains to study potential treatments outside the body. The company says the brains cannot regain awareness. • A Claude Code user reports that an automated cleanup followed Windows directory junctions into a working project, deleting thousands of files and local Git history. Claude Code's rewind feature does not cover deletions made through Bash. The incident has not been independently verified.

The iPhone 18 Pro lineup, Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4, and AirPods 5 arrived in stores September 18, while the new Mac mini and Mac Studio became available September 22. Meanwhile, Apple has moved quickly into the 27.2 developer beta cycle. The second betas arrived September 21, with notable work underway on the Health app and Siri AI language expansion. Vision Pro and Mac beta coverage is separated into their respective sections below. Beyond hardware and betas, Apple Podcasts is preparing to bring video into paid subscriptions, Apple Sports has expanded its league support, and Apple's next generation of Siri appears poised to play a much larger role in the home. Topics and Links In Touch With Vision Pro this week.  Apple released visionOS 27.2 beta 2 to developers as part of this week's second round of 27.2 testing. Apple's official release notes identify a known Quick Look issue in which 3D objects opened from Safari can unexpectedly reposition when the user moves them. StoreKit testing fixes and known issues are also documented. visionOS 27.2 Beta Release Notes | Apple Developer Documentation John Ternus just gave the best defense yet for Vision Pro - 9to5Mac Beta this week.  Apple released the second developer betas of iOS 27.2 and iPadOS 27.2 on September 21. The testing cycle includes Apple's redesigned Health app with new Insights and Longevity areas, while Siri AI is expanding into additional languages. (⁠MacRumors) Apple Releases First Public Betas of iOS 27.2 and macOS Golden Gate 27.2 - MacRumors The Health app is especially interesting because its presence in beta does not necessarily mean the completely redesigned experience will ship with the public 27.2 release. Reporting this week indicates Apple may be testing portions ahead of a broader launch later in the year. (⁠9to5Mac) Fitness Pro in trouble? Apple-fitness-team-hit-by-layoffs-as-major-changes-reportedly-loom (Jill) OS 27.2 testing also expands Dual Capture in FaceTime to Group FaceTime, allowing front- and rear-camera views simultaneously during group calls. (⁠9to5Mac) Discussion: Is Apple turning Health into one of the most important apps on the iPhone? Would you use Dual Capture during a FaceTime group call? Does putting major features into beta before their intended release make the beta cycle more interesting or more confusing? iOS 27.0.1 is Coming Soon - MacRumors Apple also released second developer betas of watchOS 27.2 and tvOS 27.2. The Health changes are particularly relevant to Apple Watch because the redesigned Health experience ties into health information collected by Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4. Apple provides dedicated watchOS 27.2 beta release notes. (⁠MacRumors) Apple Developer — watchOS 27.2 Beta Release Notes Outside the beta program, Apple released watchOS 27.0.1 for Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4. The update addresses a restart issue and is limited to those newest models. (⁠MacRumors) Owners of Series 12 or Ultra 4 should check Software Update rather than assuming the software installed at launch is already current. In Touch With Mac this week Apple released macOS Golden Gate 27.2 beta 2 to developers. The update continues expansion of Siri AI into additional languages and introduces some smaller interface refinements, including revised keyboard-triggered volume and brightness indicators. (⁠MacRumors) Apple's official release notes identify several beta issues. A clean installation may fail to request notification permission for apps including Calendar, Maps, Find My, Home, and Weather. Apple recommends manually enabling affected notifications in System Settings. "Describe a Shortcut" can also fail, and Xcode may crash when using code completion. (⁠Apple Developer) A potentially important post-upgrade issue for Mac users is the amount of local storage being consumed by Apple Intelligence models. MacRumors reports that some Macs running macOS 27 are showing more than 30GB devoted to Apple Intelligence-related data. (⁠MacRumors) The new Mac mini and Mac Studio officially reached customers and Apple Stores on September 22. Mac mini is available with M6 or M5 Pro. Apple says the M6 model starts at $899 in the U.S., while M5 Pro configurations start at $1,699. Mac Studio is available with M5 Max starting at $2,499 or M5 Ultra starting at $5,499. Apple says the 512GB unified-memory Mac Studio configuration will arrive in late October. (⁠Apple) The M5 Ultra Mac Studio can be configured with up to a 36-core CPU, 80-core GPU, and 512GB of unified memory. The latest Studio also adds Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thunderbolt 5. (⁠Apple) Other Topics We have plenty of new Apple hardware in the hands of the panel this week, so it's time for some real-world impressions. Dave has the iPhone 18 Pro Max and Apple Watch Series 12. Jeff has the iPhone 18 Pro. Marty has the Mac mini with M5 Pro and Mac Studio with M5 Ultra. Marty gives us his impressions of both the M5 Pro Mac mini and M5 Max Mac Studio. We compare the two Macs, discuss performance and connectivity, and look at what kind of user each machine makes the most sense for. Guy has an Apple Watch 12 We give our first-hand thoughts after actually using the new hardware. Dave and Jeff compare the iPhone 18 Pro Max and iPhone 18 Pro, including size, everyday usability, performance, cameras, battery life, and whether the changes feel significant coming from their previous iPhones. Dave also gives his impressions of the Apple Watch Series 12—what stands out after wearing it, the new features he is actually using, battery life and performance, and how meaningful an upgrade it feels compared with his previous Apple Watch. Does Marty agree? The Glacier iPhone 18 Pro Max is the anti-Cosmic Orange | Macworld Code discoveries reported this week suggest HomePod Software 27 contains components associated with Siri AI, along with possible new visual behavior for Siri. This is not confirmation that existing HomePods will receive Siri AI. Current reporting suggests new HomePod hardware may be required. Apple has also been rumored to be preparing updated HomePod mini, Apple TV, and dedicated smart-home hardware.

Foundations of Amateur Radio Launched into your amateur radio adventure you're faced with figuring out what you need to fly. If you have a web browser, you can start listening to a massive array of online radio sources .. today. Beyond that, a handheld radio is often the first purchase for a new amateur, more often than not followed by the acquisition of a more advanced radio and associated paraphernalia, antenna, coax, power supply and the like. A video of forging the "Most Iconic Swedish Axe", by Torbjorn Ahman, a Swedish Blacksmith, started off with making several tools, before the axe forging itself got underway. It reminded me that in the amateur radio community we often talk about radio with rarely any mention of any toolkit. Spend six seconds thinking about this and you'll likely come up with a soldering iron and a multimeter as your next investment, but what happens after that? While not universal, truth be told, my soldering iron has very little use, though half a century ago it was probably essential. My multimeter gets more use, even though it really doesn't do any radio tricks. Its most used feature is continuity testing. One proper bit of test gear is an antenna analyser that we use most times anyone plays with antennas. Several years ago, I was given a lovely NanoVNA which gets a regular workout though calibration is a bit cumbersome. I was also given an inline power meter that provides all manner of battery health information. I take it to every portable operation. Gadgets aside, the tools I use more than all of these put together are a quality wire cutter and an Anderson Powerpole crimper with all the connector housing colours. There's also a comprehensive set of screwdriver bits, enabling access to more equipment than I have time to investigate. A 15 Watt dummy load, good to 150 MHz, gets regular use, and to complete the picture, underneath my desk is a HP 606A signal generator that I'm scared to restore. Last time I went near it, I managed to trip the house RCD for reasons I still don't understand. There's other stuff in boxes and drawers, but I clearly don't use them enough to come to mind. Unremarked is my computing infrastructure. Until a couple of years ago that consisted of a 27" iMac, vintage 2015. Expanded to 64 GB of RAM, it ran all my software using VMware, sometimes a dozen or so virtual computers simultaneously. It died in 2024 when the power cord managed to short itself on my portable desk, yes, that too tripped the RCD. Although I didn't lose any data, due to a perfect storm of incompatibility, it's been nearly two years before I found the beginnings of a replacement, a small form factor Lenovo IdeaCentre with 32 GB of RAM running Proxmox. If I was made of money, I'd probably find space for an oscilloscope and a signal generator, perhaps even a proper network analyser, but truth be told, most of my adventures these days are in the software realm. That's not to say that there is no place for such gear, just that I suspect that they'd feel overwhelming rather than something I'd grab to solve a problem. That said, regular posts by Ismo OH2FTG about resurrecting all manner of broken testing equipment revealed to me that a surprising number of these tools are essentially a computer with an operating system, running some custom application that presents itself to the user via a display. Apparently you haven't lived until you see a Windows boot loop on your Agilent oscilloscope. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, the "HP 8920A RF Communications Test Set" that I played with a while back runs what looks like a version of DOS, which comes on ROM chips, according to HP taking 2 hours to replace for a firmware upgrade, and each of its in-built tests is a program written in HP Instrument BASIC. This morning I walked into my office and spotted my PlutoSDR on my desk. If you're unfamiliar, a PlutoSDR is a little box, blue, because of course colour matters, has two SMA coax connectors on one side and two USB sockets on the other side. One antenna port is marked "Rx", the other "Tx" and by connecting the two together, you can create a transmission and then receive it. While that sounds completely useless, it's the exact same set-up as any number of bits of test equipment, to be clear, normally you have something you're testing connected between the ports. Combine that with a connected computer and you have the makings of some fancy test gear, capable of 70 MHz to 6 GHz. Since it's all Open Source, you can write your code in your language of choice. Of course I'm not the first person to come to this point. There's tools around for making this reality, implementing oscilloscope, spectrum analyser and plenty more.

The Fork In Your Ear Ep#222 "Ionic The Hedgehog" - Podcast Show Notes & Summary 9-26-26 Tim and Nate spend the first ten minutes fighting a Discord refresh, a hiss they blame on forced suppression, and a Windows accessibility crosshair that PowerToys cannot kill. Then the ring lands on Life: first day of fall floods Tim's plugged gutters, a USPS driver does an Austin Powers turn in his driveway because Washington will not let carriers reverse more than a foot, and Nate trades a Mustang insurance bill for a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq they immediately name Ionic the Hedgehog. Dream Nate gets a tattoo without telling Mrs. Foo. Amazon cargo e-bikes with fake pedals unload patio furniture in Burbank heat. Games dump after the last episode posted — Diablo 5, StarCraft Dominion, more No Man's Sky, Famitsu wishlists, Kojima's canceled Metal Gear-shaped "Fizzint," Bungie saying "we're listening" again, and Xbox shoving Halo under an Activision Call of Duty team while Halo Studios shrinks to "community support." Tim's HTML RTS playtest is up to 0.58 with dumber-AI rehab. Tech is iPhone Duo vs Z Fold 8 and a missing telephoto that keeps Tim off the fold. Entertainment is Lanterns going feral, Mayday being exactly Ryan Reynolds, Paramount-Warner getting waved through, Darkwing Duck coming back without Jim Cummings, Kara's Spaceballs DVD, and a Reddit stranger who archived Wizard's Rule episodes 0–40. Get forked.   Detailed Show Notes  

Donald Trump has been a China hawk for years, and he waged a brutal trade war against the country. So why did the US leader invite Chinese President Xi Jinping to Washington, DC for a summit? The White House dinner, featuring the CEOs of top corporations, helps explain why. Ben Norton analyzes the complex state of US-China relations following Trump's failed trade war.

Hey friends! Today's tale of pentest pwnage is brought to you by four hours of sleep, a large mint hot cocoa, and unhealthy levels of giggity. There's a very good reason for all three, but you'll have to hang out to the end of the episode to hear it. First, let's talk about an escalation path I've never walked before: A really tight network is a beautiful and terrible thing — this client went from a C-minus-ish environment in past years to one where I could find basically nothing. No local admin creds laying around, no poisonable protocols, no juicy file shares. Straight into "well, try harder" mode I went. Two new-to-me tools join the arsenal — one that gives you a second opinion on a big pile of pilfered files (Titus), and a one-shot PowerShell command (GPOZaurr) that hands you a report card for everything that's wrong with your GPOs (plus how to fix it). The finding I almost walked right past — an ADCS issue where only a tiny handful of objects could enroll. I said "all right, I'll move on." Then I came back to it, and saw I had missed the (kind of) obvious attack path. A certificate I couldn't authenticate with — and the 0xdf write-up that rescued me from my own gap in knowledge. Machine account quota was set to zero — so of course I tried to add a computer object anyway. Spoiler: it worked like a dirty shirt. The scheduled task trick rides again — my favorite "this is not going to get fixed" Windows behavior. I had a client push back on this one hard: "You had to know the password of the DA you abused, right? You stole the TGT, right?" Nope and nope. How to actually defend against all of this — some ADCS tightening, a checkbox on your high-privilege accounts that a lot of folks don't have ticked, and my new mantra: RDP with purpose. And then it's personal time — my oldest son Cam passed his national paramedic exam, and I am busting my buttons. Stick around for the whole story, including the 4 a.m. potty break that changed everything, the two health care professionals I'd like to hand a party invitation to in person (and why my wife says "I don't know about that, dude").

Nach dem großen Aufschlag rund um Entwicklung und Architektur von Windows 95 in Folge 1 dieser SFT-Doppelfolge widmen sich Christian und Henner in diesem zweiten Teil dem Spektakel, das die Veröffentlichung im August 1995 begleitete – und dem Wettrennen um die Zukunft des PCs, das damit erst richtig losging. Von der Mitternachtsschlange vor amerikanischen Elektronikmärkten über ein Riesenrad auf dem Microsoft-Campus bis zur Rolling-Stones-Hymne, die drei Millionen Dollar Lizenzgebühren kostete: Der Launch von Windows 95 war eine Marketingmaschine, wie sie die Softwarebranche zuvor nicht gesehen hatte. Doch hinter der Bühnenshow verbarg sich eine viel grundsätzlichere Frage, mit der sich Microsoft zu dieser Zeit herumschlug – nämlich ob und wie der PC gegen Spielkonsolen aus Japan bestehen könnte. Hier setzt der eigentliche Schwerpunkt der Folge an: die abenteuerliche Entstehungsgeschichte von DirectX. Chris und Henner erzählen, mit welch halsbrecherischer Eigeninitiative eine kleine Gruppe von Microsoft-Mitarbeitern gegen interne Widerstände eine völlig neue Schnittstelle für Spiele aus dem Boden stampfte – inklusive spektakulär gescheiterter Weihnachtssoftware, einer Bill-Gates-Videobotschaft mit Schrotflinte und Interviewausschnitten mit den Leuten, die tatsächlich dabei waren. Am Ende steht die Frage, was von alledem eigentlich geblieben ist – und ein Ausblick auf das, was aus Windows 95 in den folgenden Jahren wurde.
