• A participant shared Derek Lowe’s 2013 Science blog post “Things I Won’t Work With: Azidoazide Azides (More or Less)” as a cautionary look at extreme high-energy compounds relevant to experimental chemistry safety.  
• Chris_99 demonstrated and linked a YouTube video showing intentional RF emission from a laptop’s system bus, successfully transmitting .wav audio files via unintended electromagnetic radiation.  
• Discussion referenced an early Satoshi Nakamoto email (“cryptography@metzdowd.com, msg09964”) that predicted Bitcoin would evolve from user-run nodes to specialized server-farm infrastructure, prompting criticism of the original design.  
• Kanzure reported being at MIT among “bitcoin hacker people,” indicating ongoing collaboration or information gathering in that community.  
• Chris_99 noted purchasing a £3.90 netbook on eBay as a low-cost hardware target for future RF or other hardware-level experiments.
