Now , now , do n’t get too excited . Creator Joe Grand design it to be hacked . Still , 10 minutes is a somewhat sizeable fourth dimension for the bonding , reprogramming and reflashing job done by Dave Bullock , Wired ’s lensman at the event . The badge features an LED exhibit with scrolling textbook , and it even has an easter egg ( typecast in 31337 outputs “ $ kingpin$ ” , the display panel maker ’s hold . ) Dave whoop the press badge , but the badge show up is an Uber Badge , Joe Grand ’s , actually . They ’re kick in away as prizes at DefCon , and are lifetime pass to DefCon . [ Wired , but beautiful photos fromDave ]
Dave writes to set :
I should point out that the badge that was hacked was in reality my printing press badge , and that uber badge shown is Joe Grand ’s ( badge interior designer ) personal badge . Those black badge are given away as trophy for various defcon activities and offer the recipient role with a life-time costless pass to defcon .
