DSLogic unboxing

Today, my DSLogic came in the mail. For those that don't know about it, it's a logic analyzer with the ability to act as an oscilloscope and a DAQ. Here are the unboxing pictures for those that want to follow along with this review. Note that I haven't actually gone and analyzed anything, so that review will come later. The first thing I noticed is that the box that the logic comes in looks nice, but isn't going to make a nice case for it at all. I would have rather had a nice case that all of the probes and everything would fit into that I could carry around. It has four phillips screws on the bottom, so if anything goes wrong with it, at least the case is openable.

BotQueue and Heartbleed

Have no fear, for the system is secure... well... almost. It's currently not vulnerable to Heartbleed , however we need to get new private keys because we have no way of knowing if they were compromised. Looking at what information I have available, it doesn't seem like anything was really attacked, but then again, it's almost impossible to know with the heartbleed attack. Zach Smith will have to regenerate keys for the server just in case they were compromised, but it looks like everything updated correctly and no one was affected. If you were affected, please let me know immediately!  According to SSL Labs , we currently have an A- rating because of 2 issues I'm still working on improving. Enjoy using BotQueue knowing it's secure!
