Hotel. Though a few of our wider group now go for self catering apartments (Polo Towers, Jockey club etc). I’ve stayed at The Linq for years now (it was once super close to DefCon, but the con moved to the LVCC and we didn’t)

With that last post in mind, whilst our last attempt to take a newbie to DefCon didn’t end well, if you want to go but feel you need a little support, well you know which flights I’m on now. Just reach out.

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 20/09/2026

Last years FOMO was too much too handle, so guess who has just booked to return to DefCon again next year (BTW 30k points is just £390 right now, so that makes the flights £705, not the usual £1200 !)

Yeah. I remembered at the start of the third that I have a season pass for the streaming, but bar the fight (and fights DO change games) I think I saw the best of it. Tonight was ‘meh’ they seemed to be playing at 70% and as much as I love Walter, he’s no Gossie (yet)

They seemed to be struggling with the ice last weekend too!

Second day at Sheffield Ice arena. However, watching Knights today will be a little easier than yesterday across the road at the Utilia!

First ball hockey training session with Leeds Rams, first injury Still, I mugged my son during our first sift against each other, then expertly used my wrist to stop a Team GB U18 from scoring (I didn’t just get in the way, and paid the price, honest)

Don’t think I’ve ever been this excited for an advert #gta6 #gtavi

And wait another 18 months for a replacement, perhaps not. BTW you still up for the Storm pre-season? We still don’t have junior hockey fixtures, but should do any day

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 23/08/2026

I wait 18 months for this to finally ship, and Evri leave it in a bush in the garden whilst I’m on holiday! (It’s a MiSTer FPGA in a PS1 style case …. Much more suited for the living room that my DE-10 MiSTer)

Jordan’s, long shorts, and a muppets themed Hawaiian shirt (and a mullet) Definitely his father’s son! Also, he’s too tall to be allowed on the water slides now … but my wife isn’t :)

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 15/08/2026

Well that’s sub-optimal. Especially as it includes several grands worth of utterly irreplaceable #Spezial /// gear!

A list of air tags in Tenerife, except ‘Glenn’s Case’ which was last seen in Manchester AirPort a few minutes ago!

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 15/08/2026

Just landed in Tenerife. First time back since 1993. Fair to say I expect this will be a very different holiday to that one.

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 14/08/2026

With Kel playing, I’ve obviously watched a lot of ball hockey, but tonight was the first time I’ve played! Twice! Sure it was only a silly coaches & parents vs kids scrimmage, but I loved it. 54 isn’t too late to pick up a new sport is it?

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 14/08/2026

I am delighted that Binface hasn’t just joined Lord Sutch in the history books, but smashed his record and been the first novelty / comedic / protest candidate to keep their deposit But now all that’s done with, can we get back to the investigation into Farage’s donations please

Jills homemade cold brew is super!

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 09/08/2026

3 episodes in and I have to say ‘Stewart Fails to Save the World’ is far better than it has any right being. ‘Big Bang Theory minor characters do Sliders’ it a terrible premise, but somehow it works as a quirky silly self-aware sci-fi comedy. The episodes are too short though!

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 09/08/2026

Went up on Torrisholme Barrow for the first time since I was a kid, at ai don’t think I’ve ever seen the view to clear. Ingleborough, Clougha, Williamson’s Park, Heysham Power Staton, Morecambe Bay. All visible from one spot

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 07/08/2026

Most years I’d be at defcons linecon introducing people to Benedictine. I’m not there this year, but I’ve just spotted it in smokestack, so I’ve just introduced these two amazing people to it!

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 29/07/2026

Every time a vendor asks if I’m going to BlackHat/Bsides LV/DefCon this year! (Though I suspect we’ll be back in 2027)

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 26/07/2026

1st day of the week long Bradford Bulldogs hockey camp. I suspect he’ll look a little differently next Saturday! Glad he’s finally ditched the Crocs for sliders (even if they are mine!)

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 25/07/2026

I came back from EMF camp to a mostly dead main daily-driver PC. A week later not only do I have even more screen real estate, I’m gaming at a solid 60fps for the first time, well, ever probably (at least on my own PC hardware)

A game showing a current, max and min of 60fps.

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 09/07/2026

To be fair, I picked it up from a FB post, but as I have a couple of friends that move in his (their) circles, I was hoping I could get the idea on his radar, but as you say, he’s kinda got other priorities right now

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 09/07/2026

Knowing that I know people on both sides of this, we absolutely need to get The Lancashire Hotpots and Count Binface collaborating on a reworking of their classic ‘Has the bin man, bin mon’ as ‘Has Count Bin Face won mon?’ youtu.be/RATXBp1v2gA?...

Before I take a crack at it myself, nobody is working on putting #EMFCamp on @hackertracker are they?

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 07/07/2026

Anyone I know got an Apple developer program membership, and would be up for using it in a demo of a small open source app for signing wallet entries? I really don’t want to pay $99 a year for something that isn’t likely to be used more than a few dozen times.

Seems like only 5 mins ago, we were in here buying his first non-baby clothes!

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 03/07/2026

Oooh! What sort of time? I’ll be in and out constantly all day, but if I know roughly what time, I can be there (I’m only 2 mins off the motorway, so consider it a nice brew break)

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 02/07/2026

Any of my old school phone hackery friends got a spare distybox they are willing to sell or loan? (Or indeed any DECT to FXS adapter)? EMF Camp has inspired me to dig out some old analogue kit, but I just can’t find my distybox

000

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 02/07/2026

Before I head to Decathlon or Go Outdoors, nobody has a mid size tent they’d be prepared to lend more for EMF Camp do they? I have a couple of ‘festival’ 2-man tents but EMF looks like I need to take a tonne of stuff, so much bigger is better.

Glenn Pegden @glenn.pegden.com · 28/06/2026

I was not aware of this, and it’s very much relevant to My interests. thanks

Nobody on this earth gets me quite like my wife!

4 parts of the Muppets Noir comic and an additional alternative cover, and an additional alt-cover for part 1.

I’ve had some highlights of this trip, being sat in a Man Utd bar, listening to Morrissey, watching Argentina beat Austria is not one of them

Remember all the glassware Esso shifted in the UK the late 80s? Seems it still used a lot in Latvia!

Malort drinkers, Benedictine drinkers, pálenka, Becherovka, Slivovice and Chacha drinkers. If I was running a one-night ‘undrinkable local filth’ evening of the hardest hardcore foul drinks from around the world, what drink would YOU add to our bar?

Having found beni in Riga, I sense a new game, regionally inappropriate drinks!

000

Things I didn’t predict today. 1am and I’ve just been drinking Benedictine

Apparently‘without blackcurrant’ is ‘old people’s drink’

100

That said, add blackcurrant and it’s almost drinkable!

110

Having tried it now, I suspect it’s equally good at making surfaces flame retardant and filing potholes!

Second time in as many days that I’ve been up at 4:30. This time, Riga bound!
