Das Bityard: How to Sell a Motorcycle on Craiglist
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2012/03/how-to-sell-motorcycle-on-craiglist.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. March 12, 2012. How to Sell a Motorcycle on Craiglist. Or more precisely, how not to sell one. To get a feel for the market and what kinds of bikes are available, I've been scanning advertisements from a variety of sources. The most prolific- and consistently hilarious- has been Craigslist. To post an ad. To a buyer, there's usually some apprehension before contacting a seller about an ad they've placed. You wonder things like: Is this person interested reaching a fair d...

Das Bityard: Symmetric Encryption with PyCrypto, Part I
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2010/01/symmetric-encryption-with-pycrypto-part.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. January 24, 2010. Symmetric Encryption with PyCrypto, Part I. This is a multi-part series on the basics of implementing symmetric cryptography in Python with PyCrypto. Also, I'll attempt to explain concepts as best I can, but you'll want to have a decent grasp of Python in order to make full use of the tutorial. We are going to write a Python program that will take an unencrypted file, prompt for a password, and spit out an encrypted version of the file. It will, of cour...

Das Bityard: Symmetric Encryption with PyCrypto, Part 2
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2010/10/symmetric-encryption-with-pycrypto-part.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. October 5, 2010. Symmetric Encryption with PyCrypto, Part 2. This is the second part of my introductory series on cryptography in Python and it covers the AES block cipher with lots of actual code this time. Please read the first part. If you're new to this stuff. I consider these articles to be works in progress so don't be surprised if you notice something change between visits. I appreciate feedback and suggestions! All AES ciphers have a block size of 128 bits (16 bytes)...

Das Bityard: Playing with localStorage
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2010/02/playing-with-localstorage.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. February 2, 2010. This seems to be something of a well-kept secret. It appears that almost all newer web browsers support various types of client storage without the use of cookies. The web storage specification. Part of HTML5) describes new facilities that web authors can use to store arbitrary data on the client using a simple key/value store. Back to local storage, however. These are the browsers that I successfully tested with support for local storage:. While these brow...

Das Bityard: Symmetric Crypto with PyCrypto, Part 3
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2012/08/symmetric-crypto-with-pycrypto-part-3.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. August 8, 2012. Symmetric Crypto with PyCrypto, Part 3. Now that we have a grasp on how encryption works (from a high-level black box perspective, at least), we concern ourselves with how to generate cryptographically strong keys. I highly recommend reading Part 1. Before we get to our first semi-practical file encryption script, one more concept needs an introduction. Our cipher of choice in this tutorial, AES, accepts keys in these lengths:. Key size (bytes in ASCII).

Das Bityard: x0xb0x #3
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2009/08/x0xb0x-3.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. August 12, 2009. Just finished up x0xb0x #3. All of the basic functionality seems to work and it sounds just like a 303. Well, better than a 303 in my book but I guess I'm probably biased. They gray knobs were special-ordered from Korg Europe. They were made for the Electribe ESX-1 and EMX-1 but they happen to be. For the x0xb0x. I could have ordered the large switch knobs too, but I would have had to hack the encoder shafts even more than I already did. X0x #3 Almost ready!

Das Bityard: Raspberry Pi Serial Console in Linux
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2012/06/raspberry-pi-serial-console-in-linux.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. June 23, 2012. Raspberry Pi Serial Console in Linux. Arrived in the mail earlier this week. However, work, family, and other commitments meant that tinkering with it had to wait until the weekend. Until today, all that I managed to accomplish was to download a Debian-based OS image, flash it to an SD card, hook the board up to my TV, and squeal with joy as it booted. SSH would work just fine in theory, but there are two major drawbacks:. Either way, you'll probably have to d...

Das Bityard: On not coming in last
http://bityard.blogspot.com/2009/05/not-content-with-making-it-as-difficult.html
Do not bend, staple, or fold. May 28, 2009. On not coming in last. Not content with making it as difficult as humanly possible for a person to enter back into his or her own country, now the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol want to scan and store the fingerprint profile. Of every person exiting the border, even U.S. citizens. And incredibly, they can't even state why this would be a good security measure:. We are trying to ensure we know more about who came and who left," he said. You're not even trying!
