Hi everyone!

I am the founder of Hack Smarter - which many people use for OSCP prep (we are featured on LainKusanagi's list, he has actually created a few of the labs on our platform!)

Anyways, I am making all of our labs completely free for Defcon weekend (Thursday - Sunday). We have labs covering Active Directory, Windows, Linux, Web, AWS, and more.

No strings attached... no payment info needed... just one of the many ways we are trying to make hacking accessible for as many people as possible.

Mark your calendar and get registered at https://defcon.hacksmarter.org

(Also, we have a bunch of people attending Defcon and multiple informal meet-ups happening all weekend. Link to our Discord is on our website... if you are attending for the first time and looking for a group of people to hang out with, join our Discord and add the defcon-2026 role to yourself!)

Get them.

Your feet are going to hurt.

All those goons with their knee high programmer socks on are actually wearing compression socks.

Here is a little project badge I created called the Ouroboros Badge. Its a pure RISC-V Assembler project on a CH32V003 chip with a custom UART game. See you all at Summer Camp!

Last year taking the hyperloop within the convention center was free. Does anyone know if we can take the hyperloop to and from Resort World to the convention center for free this year?
