Hey idk if you'll see this, but I really like all's content dude. keep this up, it makes my day better!
I don't know what that is but if you can tell me what images were on your computer screen I'b gladly buy a tiny homemade wood stove off you.
That was a human eye, wasn't it? The inside of a retina?
What did you see?
God you two are looking more and more like bootleg star wars action figures.
Somehow Brian has found a way to get Jason to do all the work so he can spend his time screwing with his hair
Best comment ever.
Are you ignoring the Mohawk?
They're becoming an 80's action tv show xD
I'm pretty good at hiding in photos myself
i relate too much v-v
It’s my mans Bigfoot back at it again, ending up in every good video’s comment section
Very good comment
@@sttar3450 are you a bigfoot too?
Username checks out
I love how it was immediately obvious to Brian that "sultry" is "back to back action"
Brandt going over alternative options was great!
Yeah, I'm kind of hoping he does a video about it on his channel!!
Whenever an episode is left open ended with 'find the thing', I immediately tap out because I have no idea what the F to do. And I feel like an idiot for it
dont worry, i too, never "find the thing".
The last time I did one of these 'find the things' (the Zeta Provocation)... I got to the end where you left your phone number in a google doc and then I never heard anything about it ever again. No phonecall of course, but not even a followup video or any sort of resolution that I've seen. After that I gave up on these. :/
can we get Brandt to explain things from now on? I actually learned something on MR lmao
This is awesome, I just watched a pod cast where they talked about a streamer almost getting doxed because in the background of his stream there was a package that was visible and someone was able to zoom into the image and scan the tracking code on the package to get the delivery info
I'm not going to actually extract the QR code hidden in the image, and instead I'm just going to ASSUME it's Brian doing the Dancing Baby.
But it could be jayson scream about nord vpn
If you're curious this is the video from the QR code in the image: th-cam.com/video/N2HVYEveOBw/w-d-xo.html
@@ericsilvester8577 genuinely SHOCKED that wasn’t a rick-roll.
Brian with his mullet and Jason with his mohawk. Samson and The Chooch: Fury Road coming to a theater near you
YES!!!! I’m so glad Example Show is still a running meme!
Another way to hide information in a photo is to assign colors on the color pallet to ASCII codes. Since a minimum ASCII code is 7 bits of data, setting this as the least significant bits in a 24 bit pixel will make slight changes to the shade of the color, imperceptible to the eye, yet at the data level, can be directly converted. I use this method to hide copyright messages in my photos.
"We have to install codecs..." -just clicks whatever pops up- OH! so it's one of those episodes that's secretly about computer security and them being awful at it!
@@ProtoV33MK1 Sure, but as a computer security person: always read every popup that comes from your actions and never click on one that comes without your direct action unless you know 100% that it's legit. Also update your software. ALWAYS UPDATE YOUR SOFTWARE.
I was about to go to sleep and you guys uploaded! God I love time zones.
Also, I love these "hidden in plain-sight" videos.
Brian is really channeling some Gordon Freeman vibes and I am here for it
I remember doing sneaky things like this when I did my graphic design training in the 90's and used to leave loads of sneaky messages in images and documents that I worked on. At later dates, I'd get people to isolate certain colours which would reveal pentagrams around peoples head and the horns I drew on peoples heads. 😊😋 We'd also select our own palette of colours so that we all sent messages to each other on the same .BMP images with there being no compression on the .BMP format.
I enjoy steganography too, but once you're manually adjusting the colour values of individual pixels, it's like "why bother?" If you're just sending coded messages to your friends, no one else is trying to read them anyway. I file it under 'making the Mona Lisa out of toast.'
I thought it said "How many secrets can you hide in a simple potato?" not photo, but this works too
Not sure how long it will stay secret though... Too many eyes...
8:28 "Don't Look At the Moon" - Dude, Kris Straub is hinting there may be more Local 58 coming on Twitter.
Brians hair is giving me nothing other than Jamestown vibes
Collaboration ?
i genuinely adore their hairstyles. i wish i looked that cool ahahha
I wish I still had hair at all 🤷🏼♂️😅
This is actually the key element needed for a project I'm working on
Thanks! This will be useful to me!
Awesome :D Those improvisation shots were perfected rehearsed I think (is that a paradox)?
We are still waiting for the Scooby-Doo episode
Day 2 of asking jason murphy to chop Brian's pony tail when he's not looking
Well... he doesn't have it in the Curiosity Stream ad, so something happened to it...
Fun fact: that’s actually assault.
@asdrubale bisanzio found the twelve year old
@asdrubale bisanzio True
An alternative to combining two images and messing with the contrast is something I did for work once. I wrote a PHP program that took two images and did a pixel by pixel comparison. Any pixels that different were rendered as white on a new image that was otherwise black. It’s basically the same thing but you don’t get the problem of darker and lighter areas of your image being illegible. In this case I was embedding user IDs, IP addresses, and access times (for the purpose of tracking pirate leaks).
This is wild!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love a Modern Rouge ARG.
another thing you could do is hide information in the file of the image itself, in such a way that it is not at all visible no matter what
aka, you can do a thing where when you open the image file with a text editor, such as notepad++, the coded message is at the bottom or something. if you do this you can also encode that message in any number of ways as your only limit is ascii text itself
heck if you're feeling spicy the decoded message could be a link to *another* image with a second coded message. or perhaps this other image could be the second half for the qr code thing
nice emergent bacon plug
Love you guys
god these episodes are the best lmao
The ending where he showed the 4 messages that were edited into the photo blew my mind!
An image has more than pixels: metadata like dates can easily be codes. Even the whole exif can hold every single Photoshop brushstroke for example, or custom data.
Now just combine this with hiding files inside the photo and you've got a lot of info/data being sent that's unseen
Nice one. Already subbed Brandt
Brian's hair in the video you go to using the QR code is just wow
This form of steganography is way too much work for practical daily use. If it can't be automated, it's not worth the effort for regular communications. Might be fine for escape rooms or challenges between friends, I guess. Otherwise, just stick to the earlier stega file embedder program, or use PGP (pretty good protection).
Some of the pixel value stuff you could script with Photoshop actions. The QR one specifically is fairly easy since you could build a droplet to open both images as layers and do the Difference filter.
I WOULD NEVER have found those hidden pixels
Much love to the modern rogue family much love trying to get on to the dischord if it is possible
That's the first time I've ever heard a rat tail refered to as "fly hair"
Who noticed the SCP field code for "Does Not Stay Dead" on the board at 1:21?
ah fuck where?
@@edarddragon right in the middle of the board, hard to miss if you know what to look for. It's huge
"So, if you need a third parent..." Lol!
oh wow not even a minute since this was posted
ATX is a pc standard for form factor, idk if that was the purpose.
Hey, around when Brandt is running through the different techniques for hiding stuff, showing the photo and his editing software starting from 7:57 ; is the frame being constantly tilted intended to be morse code or is it simply being tilted in order to keep peoples' eyeballs constantly adjusting so that it's easier to watch the visual effects?
I was also wondering about the "bad" video render
I noticed the tilt too! It’s been 6 months. Has anyone figured it out???
My brain: oh ye, the mullet and the mohawk doing spy stuff again
I legit just got my masks and am sitting here questioning whether or not this is really a cypher on the side of the box as it contains no numbers but is perfectly formatted to be a cypher
Finally mullets are making a comeback
Did mullets ever go out of style in texas?
been had a mullet
@@p0x914 Depends on the amount of incest babies. Due to covid I can imagine the incest went up.
Brian is THE Mr. Gordon Freeman
Some people have been known to hide steam codes in social media photo posts. It's neat.
None of this is new information for you guys. you guys have been doing this stuff in your videos from near the start of this channel. Always love the content.
Your mullet makes me cry for humanity.
Got my Masks! I saw one in the wild too, but didn't think to ask for a picture.
I have to admit, for the first time in my life, I'm tempted to get a mohawk.
"What is this, IDE?" Nice.
2:06
I can hear the echo of the Nord VPN scream from Jason's face.
BEFORE 500 BABAYYYY
this is like the meme where it tells u to zoom in on a part of the pic then that part tells u another part to zoom in on and so on
The modern rogue:
Gentlemen
Warrior
Steganography
Stegosaurs
dress opposite, i.e. brian with shoes and jason with sandals, and one has a mohawk and the other has a reverse hawk
It's like the Mythbusters, but they're both like Jamie and Adam combined
If Jamie and Adam were 12, but a good, "let's build a realistic volcano" 12, not a mean "ants with a magnifying glass" 12.
Wow. Haven't seen much of this before. Amazing to see just how deeply things can be hidden!
P.S Hi algorithm :P
Is there any meaning to the letters in the mirror? Has anyone figured out if there is????
Never clicked on a video so fast!
I thought the title said "potato" and got excited, then it turned to confusion when in the first 3 min. there wasn't a single mention of potatoes.
If you ask someone who knows computers well, you could hide files inside a picture using zip or winrar, so how many secrets depends on storage capacity ;)
So uh is no one gonna bring up that Brandt's section is constantly rotating? I imagine there's a clue in there
God I thought I was going nuts or something was wrong with my vision.
This is cool
Does anyone have the OTP to decode the mirror message?
I don't think I've ever seen Brian with people normal hair
Anyone else notice Brian’s hair is different in the sponsorship?
So does that mean emergent Beacon is going to have a more in-depth video?
Not necessarily about this topic in particular, but generally more in-depth than we do here on MR.
Nice shameless plug in that QR code LUL. Well played.
8:32 #7f7f7f is that a Stargate reference?
This is bizarre and is like magic with all the hidden stuff. I am a doing fine and thanks for asking.
So I looked into the 4 explained codes. Dead pixel is color #8d1637 (not sure if that number represents something besides a tractor part). The QR codes sends you to this th-cam.com/video/N2HVYEveOBw/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=BrianBrushwood .
As for other messages, there's "go away bad guys", the article about grill cheese, all the pixel tweaking in the bottom left corner, the 7 pixel sequencing on right-hand side, acksmz (?)
I'm honestly curious for the explanations and to know what I missed.
I just love ya guys, greetings from Russia!
My brain tigers feel pretty satisfied
You guys should do a manipulation and interrogation episode!
PLEASE tell me that was a Local 58 reference in the hex codes.
Still waiting for "Cheese eating D-Bags"
Jason looks way better with a mohawk than Brian does with a ponytail
Yo yoyo hi rogues
reminds me of notpron or similar riddles
Never been this early before!
u_u i feel like to be a MR you got to be good at ARG and cryptology u_u i suck at those both, i couldnt be a modern rogue.
Ahhh, actually the point is you _don't_ have to be good at it, these videos are here to teach and help you! The hard part is paying attention so you know _when_ to look
*_Curiosity Stream how to pick the lock on your Brain._*
“*In-for-mation over-load*”🤖🤯
If there are messages/codes like this all over MR I'm f*cked at finding them. That's so many still frames and pictures to go over. But I see how it could be used for future boxes y'all/puzzles y'all do. I struggled hard with the last ones and didn't even make it far. That goes without saying these types of things could be all over everywhere and we have no idea...
what’s the thing that says “WW1 8.5” x 11” qty 1” i mean the dimensions mean it’s prob paper but who ww1
I love this midlife crisis channel!
i like jason hair.
Oh my. That rat tail. Uh...... hi Brian? What? Your poor daughter.
Good
Nope. I love the idea. don't have the patience lol
"You do not recognize the bodies in the water"
Nice.
Brian looks like gordan freeman
Good lord! I can't believe what you said about your followers! It's almost criminal! 😉🤣
