WebPKI and You

There’s been a push over the last twelve years to move web traffic off unencrypted HTTP to encrypted HTTPS, to protect the general public from dragnet surveillance, gaping assholes on public wifi>airpwn, backhauls over unencrypted satellites, that kinda thing. HTTPS relies on a public key infrastructure to make sure only authorized servers have keys for specific websites. [>oid]: an OID or “Object…

Grizzco Weapons

Splatoons 2 and 3 have a Salmon Run mode. On some occasions, they feature Grizzco weapons that are drastically different from other weapons of that class. Based on vibes and experience, I feel like there’re a few different eras of these weapons in play. whoa whoa whoa slow down, what’s Salmon Run?

Exporting Images and Videos from a Nintendo Switch to a Mac

Instead of just slaughter, you have to get golden eggs to drop…

Review: Time Tripper: Circuit 01 Abyssal

I played a lot of shareware Doom growing up, but I never really got into downloading maps online. We only had one phone line, and as a result I didn’t have much of an on-ramp to online communities until Doom had been disregarded in favor of newer and shinier games.
