This video is sponsored by NetworkChuck Coffee. Grab a bag of Default Route (my favorite) and fuel your next build: https://ntck.co/coffee Raspberry Pi sent me the new Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2, the 10 inch portrait version, and I mounted it on my studio wall to run all my Home Assistant and homelab stuff. It is a gorgeous little screen (1200x1920, real IPS, 10 finger touch, 400 nits) and at $80 it is a steal. There is one catch though, and a lot of you are not going to like it: this thing only works on the Raspberry Pi 5 and the Compute Modules. Your Pi 3 or Pi 4 will not work at all. In this video I unbox it, walk through everything that is new versus the old touch display, hit a wall when it powered on and did absolutely nothing (turns out you have to update the firmware on your Pi 5, the EEPROM, before it will recognize the screen), mount it with nothing but a drill and some screws, and finally turn it into a beautiful Home Assistant dashboard using an open source kiosk app called TouchKio. Whether you are building a smart home wall panel, a homelab status board, or you just want your Raspberry Pi to show off what it is doing, this is a really good option.

Build your next random idea on a Hostinger: https://hostinger.com/chuckfifa I spent two days inside the FIFA World Cup International Broadcast Center (IBC), the temporary network that carries every camera, every replay, every goal from 16 stadiums, and the HBS team even handed me a packet capture of a real match. So we open it in Wireshark: uncompressed ST 2110 video, 150,000 multicast flows, and a failover trick that will make any network engineer smile. 🎓 I asked the crew HOURS of questions that didn't fit in this video, the full behind-the-scenes interviews are on NetworkChuck Academy: https://ntck-ac.co/fifa?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=fifa_world_cup_2026&utm_content=fifa_main_tour RESOURCES / LINKS: 🎮 Play the Backrooms of the IBC (built on a Hostinger VPS with a Hermes agent): https://srv732026.hstgr.cloud 📚 THE SIGNAL — the World Cup networking comic I made for my kids: https://srv732026.hstgr.cloud/comic/ 🛠️ Wireshark (decode packets yourself): https://www.wireshark.org 🌐 Official IBC Tours site: https://ibctours.tv 📺 The Hermes video (the AI agent that built the game): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQEgIo4Juxg TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - The World Cup is made in Dallas 1:29 - Following one match: Boston → the IBC → the world 3:06 - How a match gets "made" 1,500 miles from the stadium 4:32 - The fiber (and the red/blue trick) 7:08 - Multicast Martin and 150,000 flows 11:52 - The thing I built at 1AM on a Hostinger VPS 14:10 - The people who make the World Cup 16:07 - Decoding a REAL World Cup match in Wireshark 21:45 - Addie's question: the sound of the ball 23:20 - The stadium, the backup plan, and the teardown 29:30 - A prayer for the stressed FEATURING (huge thanks to the crew who make the World Cup — and this video — possible): 👤 Christoph Barbet — Head of Broadcast Infrastructure, HBS (Host Broadcast Services) 👤 "Multicast Martin" — broadcast SDN / TFC 👤 Alex — Master Control Room Supervisor 👤 Wolfgang Herman — IBC Communications Engineer 👤 Mick — Audio Listener 👤 Anthony & Colin — Layer 1 / Broadcast Support 👤 Steve — Control Systems & Dashboards 👤 Gavin — Stadium Manager, AT&T Stadium **Sponsored by Hostinger SUPPORT NETWORKCHUCK: ☕☕ COFFEE and MERCH: https://ntck.co/coffee READY TO LEARN?? 🔥🔥Join the NetworkChuck Academy!: https://ntck.co/NCAcademy 📚 CCNA Course: https://ntck.co/ccna FOLLOW ME EVERYWHERE: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/networkchuck/ X/Twitter: https://x.com/networkchuck Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NetworkChuck/ Join the Discord server: https://ntck.co/discord Some links in this description are affiliate links.

Fable 5 — the most powerful AI on earth — got pulled offline by the U.S. government three days after it launched, and it just came back. But for most of us the free window is only a handful of days (through July 7). So I sat down with Daniel Miessler, who's already living inside that window, to figure out the one thing that actually matters: what's worth asking it before it's gone. This isn't about doing bigger tasks. It's about pointing maximum intelligence at your deepest systems — your AI harness, the security of everything you've shipped, and the single hardest question about what you're actually building toward — so the payoff outlasts the window. Think of it like a super-intelligent alien that can only help for a week: you don't send it on errands, you have it rebuild your roads. In this video, you'll learn Daniel Miessler's exact list of meta-prompts to run on Fable 5: how to improve the harness that governs all your AI, how to audit the full attack surface of everything you've deployed, and how to ask the model to tell you what you're really shooting at. Whether you're deep into AI already or just trying not to waste the most capable model on earth, this is the prompt playbook for the week Fable is back.

I got sponsored by a VPN to make this video — which means I have to be EXTRA harsh to keep any shred of dignity. So I busted 6 of the biggest VPN myths, no sugarcoating, and by the end you'll know exactly what a VPN is actually good for, what it's NOT, and why I still use one every single day. In this video, you'll learn what a VPN actually does (it just changes what network you appear to be on), why "HTTPS already encrypts everything" doesn't mean a VPN is useless, and how your ISP can still see the sites you visit even with secure DNS — I prove it with a live Wireshark capture. We get into what "no-logs" really means and how to verify a provider you can actually trust (RAM-only servers, independent audits, jurisdiction), why a VPN can NOT make you invisible (cookies, logins, and browser fingerprinting still own you), and where a VPN genuinely shines: the metadata it hides, the dedicated IP that protects you from DDoS and swatting, and the all-in-one security stuff NordVPN bolted on top — phishing/malware blocking and the Hijacked Session Alert that watches the dark web for your stolen login cookies. Whether you're a security practitioner who walked in expecting a shill, or just someone wondering if you should even turn one on — this is an honest, decide-for-yourself breakdown.

Try OpenAI Codex on Windows (it's native now): https://ntck.co/codex I gave an AI control of my Windows PC. OpenAI made the Codex app Windows-native — it lives in PowerShell, and they built their own Windows security sandbox in 15,000 lines of Rust so the agent can't escape and nuke your machine. I used it to strip the bloat, lock down Windows Update, and even spin up a Hyper-V hacking lab... and somewhere in there I started to miss Windows again. So this is me asking an honest question: can Codex win me back? In this video, you'll learn what "Windows-native" actually means for an AI agent, how OpenAI's Codex sandbox isolates the agent using real Windows tools (ACLs, restricted tokens, firewall rules, and dedicated sandbox SIDs), and how to point Codex at your own machine to clean the adware, kill the nags, and stop Windows Update from undoing your work. Whether you're a Windows sysadmin living in Active Directory, a security nerd who loves a good sandbox, or just someone tired of Microsoft cramming junk into your OS — come nerd out with me.
