Maybe just the value of how does someone respond to putting something in their awareness? Yeah. Which is absolutely a thing, right? How does someone respond? Which, I don't know, similar to the drones that are popping up. And I'm just like, I don't know where that's coming from. Jersey had one recently. But there's lots of, like, drones in the sky.

I'm like, I don't know what that is, but I would love to find out. Yeah. Is it collecting data or is it just seeing how people respond to unknown unreported drones in the sky for, you know, tactical knowledge in the future?

Yeah, I mean, kind of. Like, I had always been tinkering with things like those BeamBots, right? But... Yeah, so I think it was on Twitter or something. I saw just a picture of somebody with a USB drive. The shell was open, and there's just like a firecracker sitting inside of it. No idea if it worked or not, but I'm just like... Everybody has like the same visceral response to seeing that.

Like, oh, shit. Exploding thumb drive. And I'm like, you know what would be cool? As if it was worse. So... USB rubber ducky. Got to explain what that is first for this to make sense. My now business partner, Hack5, invented the USB rubber ducky, I don't know, like 15 years ago now, something like that. It does the same basic keystroke injection that I had demoed with the cable, right?

Where you plug it in, it types something really fast, whatever you want to control a computer or whatever you want, right? I wanted one of those that also exploded. So first thing I had to do If you open up a rubber duck, there's not much space in there. It's all electronics. I'm like, okay, how can I shrink this really tiny so I have space... for something goes boom.

So I spent a lot of time playing with that, right? Now I didn't recreate a rubber ducky exactly. Like it's a really, really limited version, like 200 keystrokes, really slow, done, right? That's it, really hard to use, but it was tiny. And I shrunk it and shrunk it, shrunk it, shrunk it. And it's just, I don't know, I think it was like eight by 10 millimeters when I was done, like a pill basically.

That left the rest of the thumb drive empty. that I could hook up with a little mini detonator and maybe a firecracker or two and a bunch of confetti. And I rigged this up to a keystroke injection payload that opens a browser to an animation of Jack in the Box. And he's cranking it on the screen, except it goes for an awkwardly long amount of time to build up tension. And it's going, it's going.
