  • @Helyx I think @meanderingman still has space for heading down and there may be a few options for heading back up. :)
  • Whipped Cream vodka? Clearly a few Salty Pretzels should be made. :) To add to the list, Cassox stocked up for vodka collins to be the designated event drink, and I'm bringing a few bottles of random alcohol. If there are no other requests, we could use some soda as mixers or maybe beer which I don't think many people are…
  • We have an another option for housing at DEF CON that came up. A friend who also wants to go has Marriott discounts and says he can get us a suite at a discount. He’s getting a firm quote but quick math says prices would be similar to: 3 bedroom villa = $291/night (if we get 6 people, it would be $48.5/night/person) Hotel…
  • Only 1 more day! Grindfest One is nearly upon us… Grindfest One (9/4-9/6ish) 19445 Adalante Court Tehachapi CA 93561 @Cassox has been busy lining up food, drinks, cool speakers and events — indeed how did the “annual bacteria races” not get more attention and love? Where is everyone’s nerdy biology smack talk?!? I trust it…
  • I wrote a lengthy post and realized it was more than anyone would want to read. To summarize: "it seems socially acceptable to do body modification stuff (piercings, tattoos and even subdermal metal implants to give horns and stuff) for purely cosmetic stuff" I disagree, it’s only somewhat socially acceptable. There is a…
  • I pulled the trigger on a room reservation (Aug 3 - 7, checking out on the 8th) to lock in the good price. :D
  • @bciuser @Cassox @AlexSmith - all added :) Thanks AlexSmith for being the Def Con liaison, it sounds like next year should be pretty awesome and it's great that the community will have some input. BirdMachine, I love the idea of kits and interactive demos. It would be good to have a range of biohacking interests…
  • I modified both sections to reflect the range and some language about "it depends on you, your healing power and your ability to keep the wound clean". Linked the magnet section back to the main page of after-care. Thanks everyone!
  • Agreed on the room, the sooner we put in a reservation the better. :) I was thinking it would be good to get a room for 5 nights (Sept 3-7). One night before (Aug 3rd) so the early birds can check in and have room keys for the others. That avoids "can't check in until after X time" and the Con check-in crowd on the 4th.…
  • @BirdMachine -- Yes! I'll kick off a thread for tracking and planning. Edit: Done! http://forum.biohack.me/discussion/1044/def-con-24-august-4-7-2016-las-vegas/p1
  • Looks like @ydmnn and I will be heading down from SF on Friday (the 4th). Should be space if anyone along the way still needs a ride.
  • So @Cassox should people who need to know how to get to your place private message you? :)
  • Is anyone in the SF/Bay area heading down Friday and interested in carpooling?
  • Thanks for putting together the meetup. :) it was great to hang out with other local (and some non-local) folk.
  • @chironex with your statement "The pus sounded like it was the same stuff that comes out of a fresh piercing (lymph) so was probably fine but im not a doctor.... " -- could you speak a little more about that? We don't really mention that in the wiki anywhere in after care. If that's fine/normal we should probably add it in.
  • San Francisco/Bay Area here. Everyone knows about the upcoming Grindfest starting Fri 9/4 in Tehachapi (North of Los Angeles)? And the San Francisco dinner/drinks tomorrow (Aug 20)?
  • @Cassox Thanks for hosting and the willingness to fill your place up with virtual strangers! 
  •  @BirdMachine any nibbles on the Proxmark3? I too would happily pitch in on bribery. :)
  • @Dragon5 +1 for that and also calling out photographers. We might check the Skill Register. I think it would be great if we got some photos/videos of procedures or projects for the wiki -- add some show to our tell. :) Up to the group though -- some people might be camera shy. Do we know how many people took a slot to…
  • @Dragon5 - That would be Dermabond "If you choose not to use a suture, then you can use a medical grade super-glue called Dermabond. Dermabond does a pretty good job at preventing infection as you can form a serious little glue cap right over the incision site. It isn't all that mechanically strong though, so if you use…
  • @Dragon5, looks like he (they?) did: http://wiki.biohack.me/Standard_Magnet_Implantation_Procedure http://wiki.biohack.me/After_Care Also <3 you all for the hilarious responses in this thread.
  • @Meanderpaul @ElectricFeel This needs to happen! It would be great fun. :D
  • @ElectricFeel, it would only be fitting if they then splash some of the alcohol on it to "cleanse" before the bannaid onnit. I feel like we have the start of a What Not to Do video here. 
  • Sadly, didn't take notes/pics but as I recall...Back in Feb (2015), I got m1 implanted by local piercer who said she had done them before w/ few rejections. After two rounds of a piercing needle and repeated shoving of magnet she called it good and put a band-aid on it. My post-care instructions were basically "put some…
  • Bad ElectricFeel! Drunkies = bleeders w/ less clotting. You might care less as you're drunk, but it's just mean to the friend who is trying to help you out. ;-)
  • The disclaimer page goes to a 404 http://biohack.me/disclaimer.html
  • Two questions:1) Is there a way to upload images to the wiki? 2) How do we delete a page? Thanks!
  • With so many magnet questions and threads, I thought an FAQ page would be handy, so I made one and put a first pass of info in it. http://wiki.biohack.me/Magnet_FAQ - also added some breadcrumb navigation links to other pages, did some general cleanup and added some information to some of the Work in Progress pages.
  • Also do you need any help with the event?
  • I'll be heading down from the SF/Bay area. :) @cassox, I'll have my m31 ready, what time slots do you have on Sat 9/5?
