thanks for the feedback !

Show HN: Phrack.org RSS Feed

https://phrack-feed.lh.mk/main.html

Phrack.org - one of the oldest and coolest hacker magazines happens to not ship an RSS feed. I made one. Issues drop when enough papers are in, sometimes years apart. Apparently this year should have another release. This page turns each issue into a feed you can subscribe to and forget about until the next one lands.

Input validation bug on the frontend app - resolved it, sorry - thanks!
I wish I could hack that as well my friend, but I have to agree
I run Safari on iPhone 15 Pro, selection and subscribing works: https://imgur.com/a/zJ4qvo5

Can you tell me your iPhone model and Safari version?

Maybe if someone else experiences the same issue can also reply here.

That's a good point. Noted.

I don't completely understand your question but I will try to answer it.

The wheels were specifically designed to do that. The internal wiring of the wheels was random, but known. For example, every "Rotor I" that exists would have A wired to E, B wired K, C wired to some other letter on the other side etc... But then "Rotor II" would have A pointing to, let's say, M, B to L ..

And yes, they were specifically designed to do that, the whole point of it was for the electrical current to travel randomly and take an unique path throughout the rotors on each key-press.

Check out this more detailed article about the rotor wiring: https://www.cryptomuseum.com/crypto/enigma/wiring.htm

Not sure if this answers your question. I'd be happy to clear out any confusions if you're more specific. :)

It's just an alert telling you that the emulator is not supported on mobile devices.

Hmm.. Not sure what is causing your problem. I was testing the software on Firefox (69.0) while writing it and it works just fine. Maybe you're blocking JS or something?

I would appreciate if you could open a more detailed issue on the GitHub repository at: https://github.com/lubeskih/enigma-emulator.

Thank you!

Thank you for the feedback! I should probably work on that... I agree that it's confusing.
