Today, I presented the b4 tool to the Linux council at our office (talk was geared towards developers only though).

My colleagues frequently encountered patch corruption issues with mail servers. They were impressed when I introduced the concept of web endpoint submission.

Thanks to @monsieuricon for such a wonderful tool.

By default, #Raspberry Pi's #Broadcom Wi-Fi chipsets don't support monitor mode. After researching solutions, I discovered #Nexmon - a project that patches the firmware to enable this feature.

Following the Nexmon documentation, I successfully enabled monitor mode on my Raspberry Pi 4 running Ubuntu 22.04 Server.
