In this episode of Hak.5 the crew explores ways to hack RSS into your morning routine with a custom alarm clock and newspaper. Harrison makes us all a little more paranoid about network security with an ARP Cache Poisoning overview, then takes it to the streets. Wess gives the case a break and takes on the IBM Model M beast-keyboard while Alli goes retro with a classic arcade game review. All this plus a flaming-case-mod and a flame-proof blueberry hefeweizen.

Just one more day ’till Hak.5 comes at you again with more entertaining hacks cracks and laughs. I’m up late the day before release again rendering up my favorite “segment”; the credits. We put a lot of hard work into this episode, and 7 DV tapes later we ended up with around 70 minutes of edited footage. Don’t worry; we’ll keep the release under 40 minutes. It’s a shame the other 30 minutes will never see the light of day… Or will it?

Ali joins us in what we call “glue”, the short bits between segments. Hilarity ensues

Wess gave up on me during the trivia segment. I eventually got it right… eventually

We’ve had a blast shooting (and re-shooting) this episode of Hak.5; the 10 minutes of out-takes in the bloopers file is a testament to that. We’re really excited about releasing and hearing your feedback on the show. We’ve listened to everything so far and I think the changes we have made will really make this episode shine. It’s by far our best work.

Keep the positive energy hacklings,

–Darren
