Setup multiple git identities & git user informations

/!\ Be very carrefull in your setup : any misconfiguration make all the git config to fail silently ! Go trought this guide step by step and it should be fine 😉

Setup multiple git ssh identities for git

Generate your SSH keys as per your git provider documentation.
Add each public SSH keys to your git providers acounts.

Karabiner layouts for symbols and navigation

Gavin Sinclair, January 2022

Introduction

I use Karabiner (configured with Gosu) to make advanced key mappings on my Apple computer. Karabiner allows you to create “layers”, perhaps simulating those on a programmable mechanical keyboard. I make good use of these layers to give me easy access (home-row or nearby) to all symbols and navigational controls, and even a numpad.

The motivation is to keep hand movement to a minimum. Decades of coding on standard keyboards has unfortunately left me with hand and wrist pain. I will soon enough own a small split keyboard which will force me to use layers to access symbols etc., so this Karabiner solution, which has evolved over months, is a training run for that.

As this is not an official way of installing Arc, if you encounter any issues do NOT report them to the developers, they did not intend for people to be running Arc on Windows 10.

This guide is a bit more manual since I wanted to respect the developers' wishes and not directly link any downloads to the beta of Arc.

I don't know how this will work with updates, you may just need to redo the process to update it, but I'm not sure

Install this font: https://aka.ms/SegoeFluentIcons (this fixes the icons since Windows 10 doesn't have this font installed by default)
Download the Arc appinstaller and open it in notepad/some other text editor
Copy everything inside and paste it into this website: https://codebeautify.org/xmlviewer (this is optional, but it makes reading and copying from the file easier)
Find the mainpackage @Uri, it should end in Arc.x64.msix, and open that in a new tab. It should download that msix file.

Generating Authy passwords on other authenticators

*update: TBC, but this new might affect how easy it is to use this technique past August 2024: Authy is shutting down its desktop app | The 2FA app Authy will only be available on Android and iOS starting in August

This gist, based in part on a gist by Brian Hartvigsen, allows you to export from Authy your TOTP tokens you have stored there.
Those can be "standard" 6-digits / 30 secs tokens, or Authy's own version, the 7-digits / 10 secs tokens.

Recovering the BIOS Password from an Asus VivoBook (AMI UEFI)

This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to recover the BIOS password from an Asus VivoBook using a memory dump.

Prerequisites

Memory Dump: Obtain the memory dump of the BIOS using either a software method (as shown in the following writeup or a hardware programmer.
Hashcat: Ensure you have Hashcat installed for brute-forcing the password.

	I've wrapped Makoto Matsumoto and Takuji Nishimura's code in a namespace
	so it's better encapsulated. Now you can have multiple random number generators
	and they won't stomp all over eachother's state.

	If you want to use this as a substitute for Math.random(), use the random()
	method like so:

	var m = new MersenneTwister();

	According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly.
	Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground.
	The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.
