Anyone used whip with twitch ?

I'm getting a http 400 back with the message :

"failed to handle offer: failed to create broadcast session: h264 codec is missing in the SDP offer"

But there is an
a=rtpmap:112 H264/90000
line - so ?!?!

Help ?

@danjenkins ?

@steely_glint yeah there’s a whole conversation about it in the webrtc channel of video-dev slack. We think it’s to do with the profile offered and the packetization mode too

@steely_glint @commcon this feels like a brilliant talk - "THE LIES OF SDP"

@steely_glint @commcon I keep meaning to add a chapter to WebRTC for the Curious - all of the SDP hacks you can do to make things do things

🆕 blog! “Gadget Review: Vehhe Ionic Shower Head”
★★★★☆

Look, here's the deal. Sometimes companies send me products to review. I usually try and make sure they're interesting, useful, or delightfully weird. Mostly they're electronic gadgets or cool books. But someone offered to send me a shower head to review. And our old shower head had got a bit gunked up. So I said […]

Almost got scammed selling some stuff online. 🤙

Had a person send me their number as an interested buyer and told me to text them. I did (first mistake), and we arranged a meetup time. Then they asked if, for their safety, they could send me a six digit code (some of you already know where this is going) that I could repeat back to them to verify myself.

I said, "absolutely!" And sure enough, I got a Google Voice verification number. lol

If you're not familiar with the scam, shady people will take your phone number and try to create a Google Voice account with it. If you provide them with the 6-digit code that Google sends you, they can "verify" that they are you, and then basically use your phone number to run scams, commit fraud, etc. It's nasty business.

I called them out, blocked them, then reported them to the marketplace website and to the FTC--though, almost certainly, they were using the phone number of another poor soul to carry this out.

I used to work as a social engineer, running phishing campaigns (ethically, with consent lol), against Fortune 1000 companies to assess their level of vulnerability. Luckily for me, I was super familiar with this, but most of the people I told about it have said, "Oh, I probably would have fallen for that...", and even I set myself up for it.

So that is why I'm posting this. Please be aware of sketchy shit like this. If someone is asking you for a verification code over SMS or email, tread with EXTREME caution. Also, it's usually pretty shady if a stranger you're already chatting with wants to move to a new platform. Not always, but if someone emails or messages you on Facebook to ask you to text them, that's a little weird. I'd had legitimate buyers/sellers do that, so it's not unheard of, but it should put you on guard.

If you buy/sell/trade online frequently, it's a good idea to use a dedicated MySudo number, VOIP number, and/or a burner phone for that.

Stay safe out there, kids.

@ADHDefy someone tried to do this with creating an O2 (mobile phone network provider) the other day!

They were trying to tell me id won something though and tried telling me i could tell them the number even though the sms quite clearly states “don’t do it” 😂 o2’s text is great though!

OK, I have one of these spare... Of the 5 PCBs, one was faulty, and three have gone to good homes (including one on my desk). They have 372 WS2812B RGB LEDs and dial a random address on power up (also control via MQTT and HTTP). USB powered, needs 0.7A.

How do I find a worthy home for this one spare unit? I should probably find some charity thing to donate it to, but it may be just too geeky.

Of course, there is no ruling out making more at some point.

@revk ever thought about “linking” two together so they randomly light up but at the same time?

@revk @8tpercent if you link two together you'd need two sets.... entering/leaving the gate! :D

@geerlingguy all that SDI cabling is bonkers! As you mentioned with Ethernet - switches for aggregation would be a no brainer in the future - same could be said for SDI too, or just move to NDI (hx3) with a rock solid network.

Brilliant write up as always

Whats the cheapest way to do windows code signing using github actions? I thought I'd found a winner in ssl.com but the restrictions make it impossible or very expensive.

Got to say... code signing a mac app is easy in comparison

Contrary to popular belief, you can use eSIM phone plans without needing a phone that supports eSIM.

Why would you want that? Many prepaid eSIM plans are very cheap and can be bought ahead of travel, but most phones don't have an eSIM chip built-in.

So how does this work?

@MishaalRahman absolutely fascinating!!

There was definitely an article by maybe @tomayac
( ??) that explained how the stadia controller updater worked? Using WebUSB etc? Does anyone know where it is? I can't for the life of me remember where it was.

danjenkins,
@danjenkins@fosstodon.org avatar

@tomayac @steely_glint but that doesn’t explain the apis used… I’m certain there was a blog post that explained how it works - ie using webusb to load firmware (I think it uses webusb) - sure I could go and look at the source on that page… but I think there’s a blog post that explains the “how”

danjenkins,
@danjenkins@fosstodon.org avatar

@steely_glint I think it’s probably just webusb… there might be webserial in there too… shrug

danjenkins,
@danjenkins@fosstodon.org avatar

@steely_glint @tomayac yeah I seem to remember there being a blog post about the actual tool that upgrades the firmware not the one about using webhid itself. But obviously I am wanting it to exist but it doesn’t 😂

Want a sneak peak of my talk at Cluecon next week?

It’s titled “The power of web” (think the power of love song)

The Web is hugely powerful. Definitely come check out my talk next week if you’re in Chicago!

Have I turned on some option in my Chrome Canary install? Surely I shouldn't be offered "please type in your password" to bypass fingerprint recorgnition for webauthn/passkeys?
