just a general fyi for all you mac hackers out there who like to break stuff open and rebuild into newly tricked out and exciting things: our sibling-blog hackaday are live-blogging this year's defcon in vegas. vegas baby! vegas!jason c. is there with the hackers looking at all the hackish things going on, but so far he's not too ha y with the law harsh on the photo-o : "Were 10 minutes into the event and the first privacy/freedom of eech debate has started. The topic was, of course, photos. An organizer went off a long tirade about not taking pictures of the eakers or audience without their permi ion and that the pre would have their film taken if they did. They did says that you could take pictures of the backs of peoples heads without permi ion. So, since many of you have always wanted to see the backs of 500 sweaty nerds in a tent here ya go!"
vince adds this little cautionary: "Be careful. Ive gotten yelled at and in a fight already. Its a pain. Theres to of cool stuff here though so check back!" if you're in vegas, go find vince and get some of the hackaday schwag (he's wearing a bright yellow puma shirt), and if not, make sure you check back regularly at hackaday to see what's going on.
*note: in tribute to hackers everywhere, I avoided using ca in this post. h00t!
