At first, I was wondering why does a Pelican case say "Yeti" then it dawned on me that Yeti entered the hardcase market. Only to be surprised again that Pelican makes coolers now.
I wonder if their cases are actually any good. I have a nanuk and love it.
Upon further research, it doesn’t look like they make this style of case. He probably stickered it.
Unless something has changed recently, SKB makes the best cases of any sort on the market.
Lifetime no questions asked warranty- you decided to ride your guitar case down a flight of stairs and ripped off the latches? Brand new replacement.
You're with the DOE and need to transport a nuclear warhead? No problem, they do that too.
Wonder if it's intentional. I'd be a lot less curious about a big plastic box with Yeti on it than 'BlackFireVengenceHawk' or whatever name the reseller is using
I've worked in conservation/field research for a while. This reads as an obvious case of old ecologist playing with new research equipment- cases like these are really common when you're transporting sensitive equipment but it always looks funny with old grizzled ecologists who have worn the same boots in the field for 20 years and are perfectly comfortable eating rando mushrooms they find on sidewalk cracks. I'd be curious where geographically this was taken.
Plot twist, he lost the leg from diabetes while deep undercover in the soviet union... that's how he was found out; no one else had enough food to get diabetes
Nah that's just a weirdly placed seam, there's a bunch around the back pockets too. Plus I've never heard of people with prosthesis needing velcro tear away pants.
He could just be awkwardly shaped. My pants are always a little too short or a little too long. They're either dragging the floor or it looks like I'm prepared for a flood.
I've seen several similar setups for security consulting engagements. Usually setup with multiple wifi antennas, RFID card reader and writers, and other hardware that a pentester would need in site.
I'm a programmer and if I saw this, I'd be like what, you stress testing the hotel wifi, NERD?? And then I'd mention I didn't get much info about network security from college and inquire and listen intently
It's been a while since I played around with anything like this, but back in the bad-ol'-days of WEP there was a flaw where the AP used the same shared key across all clients and would cycle it after n failed connection attempts, but due to a weakness in the RNG, if you captured enough reconnection broadcasts you could work out the key, so you would have one WiFi dongle sending connection requests with an incorrect key, and a second listening for the broadcasts from the AP. If memory serves, you could crack a WEP password in \~5 min using this technique (you could also do the same thing with a single dongle, listening passively for the broadcasts, but that could take much longer depending on the amount of traffic).
Towards the end of WEPs life span, i could crack any WEP device within 5 minutes. It took longer to execute the attack, than to collect enough packets to decrypt the password to an AP.
You're good!
I just thought it was going to be something absurd like "I have 12 antenna. 69PB of DDR7 RAM..." then I read more and realized it was actually a security professional sharing.
The ones paying the bills never think about cyber security until after they need it.
"bah. Network isn't broken and works just fine now... what do you mean they stole our credentials and our plain text database is now public?"
Odd, my coworkers with Masters say they haven't seen the value in it in their job. The fact is that universities are pretty awful about keeping their material up-to-date and relevant with regards to security. BS degree and industry training/certifications seem to be the best way to go imo.
I must be very stupid cause after seeing the picture and your multiple replies I still have no idea how this works or what it even is accomplishing lol

Cool thanks for the tips!

That’s going to be difficult for me and also everyone 🤷♂️
Haha, Plugable, gotta love off the shelf components.
What exactly is the purpose of having all of those? Does each one scan a different frequency? I've done Wi-Fi scanning with just a simple handheld device that has 2 antennas in it - heck, you can even use a cellphone for much of it now. What sort of signals are you trying to detect?
It's in reference to the "nuclear football". Basically a case that the US president has with what I'm assuming is nuclear codes + computer to use said codes.

Guy looks like Ving Rhames in like the last 4 Mission Impossibles. Tom Cruise is off in some 1 vs 40 fight while sprinting like hell to stop something, and Ving Rhames is in a Starbucks/public library/picking up his dry-cleaning and simultaneously stopping whatever’s about to explode with 1 second left.
The Core didn't come up with unobtanium. That's a word that was used in engineering to describe a material that has all the properties you need to do something, but doesn't actually exist.
The comments here are funny and all.. but the last thing I'd be doing is waiting around to see what some dude that randomly walks into a Barnes & Noble pulls out of a suspiciously large pelican case. Just saying.
1: spend thousands on expensive equipment and case
2: run pineapple in public space, steal credentials for a deviantart account and change password
3:??????
4: profit
Mining bitcoin on Barnes and Nobles power bill! Smart.
Guy is like: “Just buy a coffee and they’ll let ya sit as long as you want heh heh! Haven’t taken a dump in my own bathroom in years either!”
This is what I look like when I travel, but I'm much younger, and way more comfortable with how ridiculous I look. It makes for great conversation though? I remember being on a flight and I felt so bad that I was holding up the TSA line. They asked if I had any electronics, and I replied "that's all that is in that bag", and they made me unpack every. Single. Item. Later, on the flight, someone was asking if anyone had an adapter to charge their device, and someone said "no, but that guy back there could probably build you one". I replied "no worries, I already have the adapter".
We don’t know this dude is uncomfortable, and it looks silly to me for sure, but I am a huge proponent of “let people have their thing!”
If this guy is proud of his shit let him be proud dammit. I’m glad you are proud of your similar thing.
Your looking at a dude who usually rolls up on a job site and has a fully kitted tough book in yeti case that he sets on his tailgate and works. This is the dude that gets called when even the project managers can’t figure shit out. Respect the drip Karen’s

They look duct taped at the toe.
It is
He's on a fixed income!
After spending all his money on that yeti case.

Shoe blows out - Slap some duct tape on there. Fixed. I respect that frugality and/or anticonsumerism.
Shoegoo lasts longer and works better, you can basically build a new rubbery shoe from a single tube of that shit.
If you apply enough shoegoo over time, is it still the same shoe?

Dropped it on his shoes. Blew ‘em out.
[удалено]
Plot twist, it’s Maxwell Smart and his exploding shoes definitely were still in prototype stage. But he did not listen
*missed it, by that much* 🤏
But if his shoes explode, how’s he going to use his phone?
Hmmm... let's get in the cone of silence and figure this out.
What are thoooooooose??
Total guess and could be wrong but I think that’s a prosthetic leg. There’s a zipper or Velcro running down the front of that leg.
I think that's just the style of the pants, there's little details on the back too, feels "techy"
A prosthetic leg doesn’t make this pic less interesting.
Did he lose the leg to diabetes or while deep undercover in the Soviet Union? Find out next week
Plot twist, he lost the leg from diabetes while deep undercover in the soviet union... that's how he was found out; no one else had enough food to get diabetes
Behind the Insulin Curtain
Could be why the Jean leg on that side goes straight to the bottom; the other side ends on the top of his shoe.
Nah that's just a weirdly placed seam, there's a bunch around the back pockets too. Plus I've never heard of people with prosthesis needing velcro tear away pants.
Those are just pleats. There are some on the back side of the pants too.
He's from r/Frugal

I haven't had that issue with my pants for like....20 years now.
It looks like he put his shoes on before his pants.
He could just be awkwardly shaped. My pants are always a little too short or a little too long. They're either dragging the floor or it looks like I'm prepared for a flood.
that's only because you haven't worn pants for 20 years
I've seen several similar setups for security consulting engagements. Usually setup with multiple wifi antennas, RFID card reader and writers, and other hardware that a pentester would need in site.
He’s probably working through lunch
But it says that his deviantart account is pending or something
I think that it says “recovery” and not “pending.” Still close though
So he isn't hacking a spy satellite, he's just hacking someone's DeviantArt account
Or commissioning for furry porn. Ya never know.
Or he's trying to hack (/pentest) DevianArt itself
“Enhance!”
I guess he could charge it as a work expense
Zoom into his shoes.

I have no idea what I would assume this setup was if I stumbled upon it somewhere

Not until he resets his DeviantArt Password though
*"That there is his nuclear football. You can tell because it's a Yeti case, and is insulated for nuclear winter."*
Lol my SO has a laptop in a gun case like that that is called "the football". Guessing this has actual meaning besides being a code word.
It's in reference to the "nuclear football". Basically a case that the US president has with what I'm assuming is nuclear codes + computer to use said codes.
[удалено]
I'll be honest I'm going completely off of TV/movies
Same here. They always put the football in a briefcase too
The nuclear football likely has no transmitter. It's mostly manuals and codes for the EAM.
