Well pick my lock and call me a victim of poor physical security. Ever wonder what the people at TOOOL are always on about? Its time to learn more about how all the pins and tumblers of locks work so you can impress, or horrify, your acquaintances.

Speaking of time… what is time, really? Yes, we sprung forward, but is that really just a conspiracy ran by the deep state? Who is in control of this concept of “time”, really??

Come learn how to pick locks and control clocks with some of your besties at this month’s SecKC! Don’t forget to sign up for FREE HAM radio testing - and you'd better study up so you can join for an IRL HAM radio event this summer (everyone welcome to join, even if unlicensed)!

6:40 - 7:55 Lockpicking 101 - @HackThePlanet

An introductory presentation on the basics of lockpicking. Topics covered will include operating principles of standard pin-tumbler lock operations, how to take advantage of tolerance, and how to manually leverage individual pins to pick a lock.

7:45 - 7:55 Everything is Time - @pecord

Everything is time. Voltage? That’s a time-based slope. Temperature? A time-averaged voltage between metals. Resistance? Only meaningful over time. In this talk, I’ll spiral into a barely-controlled rant about how literally every measurement you care about is just a function of time—backed by a chaotic diagram and conspiracy-board energy.

BONUS: I’ll show how to build your own Stratum 1 GPS time server with a Raspberry Pi, so you can reject the NTP deep state and control your own clocks.

It’s science. It’s paranoia. It’s time.
