My friends and I went to Pasadena again and held a Qualcomm employee hostage.

Not my fault! My trip to LayerOne 2025

I attended LayerOne 2025 for Memorial Day weekend. Check out the badge I soldered, a cool gamehacking talk, and a Meshtastic war from a third person perspective.

"Hey, can I take a picture of your shirt?"

"Sure!"

The shirts given out at LayerOne had two variations. The staff shirts were green while the attendee shirts were dark blue. The graphic design on the shirts have a sequence in hex which can be decoded into a message that was part of a game within the event.

When asked about the hex sequence, the staff will generally say, the codes are the same or that the shirts are the same except for the colors which is correct but not in the way they expected.

Me assembling the badge for Layer One 2024.

This year's badge was a programmed fidget spinner with a row of lights. When spun, the lights would display text such as "HACK THE PLANET" depending on the mode set by pressing the button. However, the middle part had to be broken off, and I wanted to keep the whole thing intact.

My favorite effect was the rotations per minute counter.
