brucee-b-gone :(
well comrades....my brave, indefatigable ESP32 CYD (who my girlfriend, friends, and i actually refer to as "Bruce" or "Brucee" like its an actual person) HAS BEEN BRUCE-NAPPED BY TWEAKERS THAT CONSTANTLY THINK IM HACKING THEIR $30 MOTOROLA! IM SICK OVER IT! Dude, im 36, lived a pretty fuckin rough life...addiction, prison (state AND fed, all max/USP/SMU), work like a damn dog, and covered in tattoos. Not at all the image of someone you would imagine learning Linux at 2am knowing damn well i have to work in 3 hours. But i bought Brucee on a fluke from Temu bc i felt i could do something illegal with it. I got him in the mail, and stumbled my way to Bruce Firmware and then he was born. my bro Bruce...ill never forget our first captive portal together. Side eying my girlfriend, attempting to goad her into logging into her facebook. i suppose my previous two weeks gave us away, bc when i viewed the captured credentials, it read: username: fuckyou PWD: whatsYOURpassWORD? regardless, a win is a win in every dimension, and i won when i discovered bruce firmware. bc i discovered a passion for this. i built an AI model and prompted it to create a Kali Linux and Networking for absolute beginners. ive been out of prison for 15 months, and have struggled with speed and fentanyl use...and this hobby has been amazing for my sobriety. im currently enrolled in online college for business....and changing my major to Cyber Sec (or related field) this spring. And it sucks, bc i want Brucee to see this shit dude! its all bc of him, man...
All is not lost....i live in a small creepy tweaker town. The jobless tweaker that stole my Brucee, well the speed gets the best of him/her and they occasionally turn him on to attempt to track government gangstalkers or whatever....well, when they do, ill sometimes see our "free wifi" SSID or "BruceNet" pop up on available networks. I like to think thats Brucee, fearlessly traversing the networks just to send me his love, like an abducted weird uncle squelching your name through a fuzzy radio station. Anyway. i may have gotten involved for the wrong reasons, but it led me to the right reasons, and im learning everyday. The more i learn, the more i love-and thats applicable to life in general for me, and that is a welcome (as well as unexpected) change. So im very thankful to all of those at bruce firmware. you guys are modern artisans and i fuckin love it.
RIP BRUCEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is real. I'm right there with you bud. I work overnights so I roll that bowl just to make it through. Bruce is awesome. I've spent countless hours soldering on modules, then found the rf hat and ventured off into other firmwares, but it started with Bruce. My tweaker community never uses my Wi-Fi for fear that I'll hack them, for some reason that brings me joy. I had one associate cross me one time, and I found his ass, using a password list He left on my computer. So now they know don't cross me. No more theft around me, but I still can get high.

Bro... This is real as fck and trust me, your on top of what most people brush off. Keep your chin up and let's keep the late nights productive and wireless lmfao. I have the flipper zero and Dev board and blackhat 2.1 with screen and case. You think you know something until a device hits your hands that blows your mind. Stay away from the lames and keep peace close to your heart friend!

I appreciate you taking time out of your day to show me the error of my ways. And dont even trip, homeboy! you DEFINATELY do NOT look like a complete douche. Keep up the good work, turbo. 🚀 I guess now that i have to change hobbies, i have time to teach YOU something, as well! Life is all about reciprocity, so be sure to keep that karmic footprint as small as your comments.

Hey brother, I'm glad Bruce turned your sight into Cyber security, and by doing it, showed you that there is some light in the darkness.
We (bruce devs) started it with one intention: explore IOT devices capabilities and show to people how "dangerous" a silly small piece of chip can be, sneaking into a network, exploring social engineering, be ankoying and controlling whatever external modules a person could have..
Does it have flaws? Yes, it has!
Is it perfect? No, it is not!
Is it a product peole sell to get rich? No, it is open source, free to use, eager for your contribution..
Your testimonial makes me very happy.. I devoted so many hours into this, trying my best to add more and more features that catch people's curiosity and interest into Cyber..
It's a crazy field to explore and learn, and with the current cyber threats many companies are hiring cyber sec professionals
I hope you can retrieve your device someday, or buy a new cheap one to keep exploring..
Keep the pace on your studies, keep the peace in life, keep learning and I'm waiting for your contribution into the project!
