All Sorted by Machines of Loving Grace? "AI", Cybernetics, and Fascism and how to Intervene (en)

Katika Kühnreich

While the extreme right is on the rise in many countries and climate change is unrolling, a promising future seems to be written: According to Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and some other “tech bros” it is to leave the dying planet to go to space. With the help of something called “A(G)I”. But what kind of future is the one that is promised? And what is the connection between power cycles of tech company owners and people who's believes can be called fascist? As we moved power through data in the hands of very view, it is important to examine what ideas these view have in their heads. This talk will explore the roots of today's tech fascism and its love for tech. From the early thoughts and movements in the US and Europe to Futurism and the Holocaust, organised with Hollerith punching cards. It will dive into the its blooming relationship with cybernetics, and take a look in the future the “tech bros” want to lure us in. This talk will address the often overlooked topic of how and when people get comfy with diving into movements of hate and how to stop a white supremacy future where we will be sorted by machines. And, in taking a look on past movements opposing authoritarianism and will examine mindsets and possibilities of resistance as well as the possibility of restarting everything. Because we have a planet and loved ones to lose. Wear your safety cat-ears, buckle up, it will be a wild, but entertaining ride.

Zentrum für Politische Schönheit: Ein Jahr Adenauer SRP+ und der Walter Lübcke Memorial Park (en)

Stefan Pelzer, Philipp Ruch

Es ist genau ein Jahr her, dass der Adenauer SRP+ in der Halle des 38C3 stand. Damals war er noch eine Baustelle, aber schon bald machte er sich auf den Weg, um Geschichte zu schreiben. Wir nehmen euch mit auf eine Reise: von Blockade über Protest, von Sommerinterviews bis zu Polizeischikanen lassen wir ein Jahr Adenauer SRP+ Revue passieren. Das könnte lustig werden. Außerdem: alles zum Walter Lübcke-Memorial-Park, den wir gerade direkt vor die CDU-Zentrale gebaut haben. Owei owei: Das wird viel für 40 Minuten.

Opening pAMDora's box and unleashing a thousand paths on the journey to play Beatsaber custom songs (en)

While trying to apply fault injection to the AMD Platform Security Processor with unusual (self-imposed) requirements/restrictions, it were software bugs which stopped initial glitching attempts. Once discovered, the software bug was used as an entry to explore the target, which in turn lead to uncovering (and exploiting) more and more bugs, ending up in EL3 of the most secure core on the chip. This talk is about the story of trying to glitch the AMD Platform Security Processor, then accidentally discovering several bugs and getting a good look inside the target, before returning to trying to hammer it with novel physical strategies.

The art of text (rendering) (en)

Nicolas Rougier

Typography is the art of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. However, for the neophyte, typography is mostly apprehended as the juxtaposition of characters displayed on the screen while for the expert, typography means typeface, scripts, unicode, glyphs, ascender, descender, tracking, hinting, kerning, shaping, weigth, slant, etc. Typography is actually much more than the mere rendering of glyphs and involves many different concepts. If glyph rendering is an important part of the rendering pipeline, it is nonetheless important to have a basic understanding of typography or there’s a known risk at rendering garbage on screen, as it has been seen many times in games, software and operating systems.

Not an Impasse: Child Safety, Privacy, and Healing Together (en)

Kate Sim

From the EU’s “Chat Control” to the UK’s age verification, there is a growing legislative momentum across jurisdictions to regulate the Internet in the name of protecting children. The monstrosity of child sexual abuse looms large in shaping how policymakers, advocates, and the public understand the problem area of and propose solutions for detecting, reporting, and removing harmful/illegal content. Children’s safety and adults’ privacy are thus pitted against each other, deadlocked into an impasse. As technologists deeply concerned with safety and privacy, where do we go from here?

Who cares about the Baltic Jammer? – Terrestrial Navigation in the Baltic Sea Region (en)

Lars, Niklas Hehenkamp, Markus

Reports of GNSS interference in the Baltic Sea have become almost routine — airplanes losing GPS, ships drifting off course, and timing systems failing. But what happens when a group of engineers decides to build a navigation system that simply *doesn’t care* about the jammer? Since 2017, we’ve been developing **R-Mode**, a terrestrial navigation system that uses existing radio beacons and maritime infrastructure to provide independent positioning — no satellites needed. In this talk, we’ll share our journey from an obscure research project that “nobody needs” to a system now seen as crucial for resilience and sovereignty. Expect technical insights, field stories from ships in the Baltic, and reflections on what it means when a civilian backup system suddenly attracts military interest.

RedScout42 – Zur digitalen Wohnungsfrage (de)

Sandra, Leonard

Wer heutzutage eine Wohnung sucht, kommt kaum noch darum herum, sich einen Account bei Immoscout24 & Co. zu erstellen. Diese „Platform Real Estate“ sind eine besondere Art der „Walled Gardens“, die ihr Geschäftsmodell auf die sich immer weiter verschärfende Wohnungskrise ausgerichtet haben. Und das ist äußerst profitabel für die Besitzer dieser Strukturen der Daseinsvorsorge: Im September 2025 stieg Scout24 in den DAX auf und reiht sich damit in Unternehmen wie BMW, Rheinmetall und SAP ein.
