    has anyone hacked the FCC and leaked all their confidential PDFs yet?

    I'm not saying anyone SHOULD do that, or that I'm eagerly awaiting the collapse of the US government so that I can pick through the wreckage, but it would be nice for us reverse-engineers if someone would leak all these FCC PDFs that explain how shit works

    @foone it would be nice, having the internal photos is certainly nice but oftentimes they're unconscionably bad and you can't make out the markings on chips

    @foone they often leak it on their own. I've seen confidential PDFs in test reports open to the public...

    @foone if you were given control of a federal agency of your choice what would it be, and why would it be the FCC?

    @foone I forgot about your Mint ideas, I was thinking about you like to take advantage of the airwaves whenever the FCC can’t get mad because of a government shutdown

    @foone we recently ran into a pair of dimmable switches used for USB lights. The remotes have a working IR LED but use radio too. The receiver itself is not even capable of receiving anything optical. We just found out, when we noticed one light turned on when we switched the other, couple rooms apart.
