Three speakers at DEF CON 2025 in Las Vegas discuss the conference's laser-tag badge, a retro Windows 95 meme project, an AI cybersecurity competition, and the biohacking village where people try to implant chips despite the rules. They warn that UK authorities are arresting meme creators and advise against working at defense contractor Anduril.
I'm about to speak on this panel about memetic warfare. Nobody knows it yet, but I'm gonna incept them with memes. The meme lord, the memetic warfare. I'm gonna show them what it's all about, alright? Yes, memes do make millions, thank you. We are here in Vegas at DEF CON. That is my engineer, he was reading the codes of conduct. That is what you need for an engineer, guys. They gotta read those those documents. We are going to be reporting live. I guess not reporting. I don't know what I'm talking about. Explain the badge that you're wearing, dude.
Okay, this is the laser tag badge. Everybody that has one of these badges can play a laser tag game with each other. Whoever gets the most points by the end of the weekend wins.
Meanwhile, I will be trying to dodge the laser tag, try to get some real guns. All right, glad they got a Gooning section here at DEF CON. We are here in DEF CON. I got my Fahrenheit ready because it is hot. We're about to be heading into the conference. I think there's a lot of talks mostly about memetic engineering. I mean, it is a meme conference after all, so.
Faster, makes us stronger than ever. After hour, work is never over. Working harder, making better. Moving faster, makes us stronger than ever. Hour after hour, work is never over. Working harder, making better. Moving faster, makes us stronger than ever. After hour, work is never over.
We've been in Vegas up all night. Apparently the Las Vegas Strip is not named that because of strippers. I recently found out, but the strippers are named that because of the Las Vegas Strip, not because they strip off their clothes, because that makes makes no sense. We're seeing a lot of interesting people, I would say. People with cowboy hats, people with military uniforms, fursuits, you know, fursuits, a lot of fursuits, a lot of goon badges. Apparently that is a word that does not mean masturbation anymore in this community. We got all the retro tech here. Yo, we gotta slap Memelord on here, dude.
They're locked into Unreal. That's amazing.
So sick. Yo, we should throw a LAN party for Memelord and it's just like everybody on old laptops making memes. Yo, it's fire. We built Memelord to be Windows 95 because nostalgia is the best drug in the universe. That's a quote from a bunch of gray guys up here. It's just so nostalgic.
I love it. We got to say, the refresh rate's so cooked on these CRT screens.
All right, we're looking at AI cybersecurity competition. Hopefully we don't get hacked. I run a meme software. I don't know what is going on here. I don't know how I got here, guys. So confused. I'm scared. Tell us how we're not going to get hacked.
You have the worst leading questions, by the way. We are going to be going to the AppSec Village. They tell you all about how to make your application secure, right? How to make sure your memes don't get hacked. How to make sure, you know, your company doesn't go under.
How did we secure Memelord? Are we SOC 2 compliant yet?
We're not SOC 2 compliant yet, but that's why we have, you know, friends like Triacom to get us like SOC 2 compliance. You heard it here.
Here. This video is sponsored by Tricomf.ai. Shout out the boys, we love you. They are arresting meme lords in the UK. People are going to jail for making memes. Privacy is a basic human right. Privacy for what you laugh at, for your unhinged jokes, that's a basic human right. It's what Meme Lord Technologies was founded on. Basic of free speech, privacy. So If you're in the UK and you're watching this, please don't arrest me when I go. All right, genius marketing right here. Anduril. Don't work at Anduril. They did a big campaign talking about how Anduril builds weapons, and that was their whole thing. Matt Grimm, Trey Stephens, they're like, we build weapons and we're proud of it. So don't work at Anduril. Don't worry, we're not going to, but we might work with them. I don't know.
The funny thing about Biohacking Village is literally every year Vegas tells them like, hey, you can't chip people, you can't inject them with chips or any other like actual biohacking. And every year they do it anyways and then they get shut down.
So I'm going to get a chip in my dick.
Please don't do that.
I feel like that would be pretty sick. Like, imagine like a, like an Oura Ring, you know what I'm saying? And then I could open source my stroke statistics of number of strokes needed. I was eating a lot of trans fats, or I really think, uh, from a marketing perspective, they should rename them to fat trannies. That way nobody wants to eat them. But I am eating some almonds, trying to be healthy. I just did my Superpower test where I had my blood drawn and everything. They are individualized health, so they come to your house, they get your blood drawn, and then they give you all the craziest results. All the stuff that like the doctor says that they're looking at, but they're not actually looking at. They give you all the test results and then give you basically a plan of what you're supposed to do. I'm trying to stay healthy. Um, you could grind, you can, uh, hack, and you can still be healthy. At least that is the goal. All right, trying to go for a wizard. All right, we'll put it on the long journey hat. Yo, we should do a tinfoil, uh, conspiracy theory podcast or something. We should— you—
well, you guys should do like a meme Oh, that'd be great.
Alex Jones. Biggest conspiracy theory is wearing socks is a conspiracy theory. The need to wear socks is by Big Sock. But you can be not wearing socks. Dude, they forced us to wear socks. I'm not wearing socks right now. I haven't worn socks in 3 years. Are you serious? No, you smell. Okay, yeah, maybe I do. My feet do smell kind of bad. Alright, I think we're good.
