Ok, @Eriequiet you’ve got to lend me your time machine…

Joking aside, how can this happen? Is the day counter linked to each user’s timezone? And can you loose a badge my moving across the globe?

That’s bizarre….
I haven’t done anything interesting

I’ll say, I wouldn’t trust that counter too much, it’s like 3 months behind or something…

I was out of cell range for 3-5 days around July 4th and it isn’t showing that I missed

And I am relatively certain I DIDNT miss a day the first year I attempted to hit 365… that was actually around this time of the year I think?

Maybe it somehow glitched and logged a day incorrectly?

I gave up…

Incidentally, my new work pass is an HID SEOS card. Unfortunately that seems to be some kind of challenge response card based on a paper about the security of it. It is probably not clonable.

I don’t really need the pass as I am working remotely, but, whatever. The first day was spent doing computer based training courses… The usual annual safety/HIPAA/infection control stuff.

I don’t think I learned anything in it.

Maybe tomorrow. (I still have one 4 hour training to complete this week).

I expect your new boss took one look at you at the interview and said to themselves ā€œhmmmm, yes I think I could use a I.T. guy that looks like a pirate on the team… Indeed.ā€

Joking aside, I’m glad to hear things are going good for you again.

I’m crazy enough to have ordered a wiegand 125khz reader without a controller… I wonder if it’ll beep or do something on it’s own when scanning a tag. IIRC, it should?

I’m planning to get an ESP-RFID board for it or make my own controller for it.

Is there something better than NFC Tools for writing several ndef records to a tag? TagWriter is better for most things but it’s kind of clunky when adding multiple records to a single tag.

( in my opinion ) those 2 are really the best

If I had to pick one I would go for NFC Tools

Does this help with what you are trying to achieve?

I was looking for an app that allows you to set a description on URL records with a relatively easy to use interface for writing several records to a single tang.

I think I should just buy NFC Tools Pro and add text entries before each link. TagWriter technically has the exact functionality that I want but the UI for adding several records to a dataset is not great and there’s a bug where it ends up creating a new dataset with just one entry.

And at least Android displays URL descriptions in the same way as separate text entries. Also, if the first entry is a plan text one, Android will display a list with the all of the records on the tag.

Still a pretty bad taste in my mouth, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention someone else pestered LTT about bio hacking and they continue to be interested, Luke in particular

But they won’t actually converse with @amal and we’re all shills so w/e

Yes, or at least this is what I get on my Galaxy S21 Ultra:

And if you’re curious, I posted that song in the corresponding thread:

Got my hands on the new style of Uhppote 125kHz reader and I couldn’t get my xFD keychain to light but it can read an xEM at 8mm or so.

These readers that fail to light the keychain detectors but work with glassies are weird and I still have to check it with the diagnostic card. I need to do some more testing and write a review.

Edit: it does light up the keychain when placed on the side of the reader. This thing puts out a somewhat weak field and the coil might be buried behind the PCB or something, it’s probably quite deep from where the xFD turns on.

Just to share my personal horror:
my monkey brain scratched the wound, like hard, during sleep.
So hard I ripped 4 of 5 stitches and the wound is barely closed…
It’s gonna get
