I moved to http://rawr.es

Fiberparty logo This past weekend I attended to fiberparty the days 27, 28, 29 an event held at Poliesportiu Campus Nord where about two hundred people meet to enjoy almost every field of computing from gaming and moding to coding and security. It had a pretty interesting activities schedule, games tournaments, talks, a coding challenges and the one I was most interested in, the security challenge.

The challenge consisted in 8+1 levels, level0 a very basic one and the 8 remaining levels. The challenge was a mix of web hacking, crypto, coding and stegano. First I started leading doing solo till level 4, at level 5 someone passed me it was Sec0 a group around 5 guys which came to be our main opponent, and when I say our it’s cause I merged with graz and SaLeM in order to compete against them since they together were faster than us doing solo. It was a healthy competition in which since level 5 Sec0 was leading until they reached level 7 where they got stuck and we could draw them. Here starts the real competition one level left, the hardest one, and we both at the same point, the game developer laughing, you can imagine the tension in the air, we progress a bit, they also do, we still progress a bit more, the also do, damn it they’re breathing in our necks…

Finally we won just by seconds! It was an interesting competition with really good opponents whom I’m glad we had, in fact if I had to decide who won the challenge I would say it was a draw :)

Contradicting my own words from the first post saying that I wasn’t going to post social life things I’m going to write about an event I attended an event done at Auditori Caixa Forum microBCN.

microBCN an event held in Barcelona, as its name says, is a concert where some 8bit artists meet giving the audience the best of them with a duration of 3 hours and a performance of 30 mins per artist it’s one of the best concerts I’ve ever attended. microBCN had an interesting list of artists: SubATAK, Alex Martin, Jodi, “Yes, Robot”, Entter and Rabato.

I have uploaded photos you can check them at my flickr account and you also can see some clips at my youtube profile. Here my favourite ones even though I like them all:

As someone pointed me at comments that was taken from xkcd.org even though I found it in other site where the source wasn’t mentioned. I recommend you visit xkcd.org site and check all the comic strips they are pretty awesome.

Yes this is not the first blog I create the other ones were moved, abandoned, … didn’t like them at all so I hope this is the last one.

Don’t even ask me what I’m going to blog here cause I’m still not sure, I’m only sure of one thing the less personal issues and the more technical issues the better. I think I’ll drop here that little things that are useful, or that mini auto howtos that at least are useful for someone(me).

First of all I’m gonna recover some shit I had in the previous blog that I find quite funny/interesting.
