I saw an entire physical switch configured for bridging VLANs. It was even labeled as such. 802.1q is hard and confusing if you don't know what you're doing.

Where are you finding cheap WiiUs? I've wanted to pick one up for a while and find them to be exorbitantly expensive, especially the controllers.

The gamepads often cost more than the console itself, because they're region locked and you can't use the console without one.

There is an attempt to clone the functionality of the gamepad ongoing that's somewhat usable: https://github.com/vanilla-wiiu/vanilla

I saw console-only Wii Us in Book Off in Japan for ~US$30.

I get a cert mismatch on that site, and when clicking the shop link I end up at https://hackerspaceshop.com/ which is advertising an online fax service.

It's 2026, and these PLCs etc. are directly connected to the internet? I think that's the most surprising aspect here.

It doesn’t surprise me at all. Show me the incentives, and I’ll show you the outcome. Security is simply not valued, in many cases.

I think it's a question of exposure and tolerance, otherwise it'd be much harder for daycare workers, for instance.

Every response to the original post calls it out as being factually incorrect...

This threat actor is also using Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) "Canisters" to deliver payloads. I'm not too familiar with the project, but I'm not sure blocking domains in DNS would help there.

Thanks for putting this together. I've been seeing the name TeamPCP pop up all over, but hadn't seen everything in one place.

That's between you and git.

Why does it have to have AI? Ugh.

You can use Kiwix, OpenStreetMap and Kolibri as an AI-free equivalent. Adding AI to those is exactly the differentiator of this project.

Because if you're stuck in your underground bunker, who else can you talk to?

AI seems expensive from an energy standpoint, but humans consume your food supply. :D

I get the hate on AI for many reasons (hype, resource greediness, threat to civilization, etc), but having a local LLM that could help guide and reason about the data within seems like a win, especially if it's optional.
